Chapter 2693: Explanation

The voices quietened down and Senior Patriarch Guo frowned: “What? Have they not dispersed yet?”

“Senior Patriarch, the people from the Li Family are fighting with the guards in the Manor.” The steward whispered.

“Patriarch Li is getting more and more outrageous!” He shouted in a deep voice and said to Feng Jiu: “Please sit down for a while, I will go and take a look.”

“Since the matter arose because of me, let me go!” Feng Jiu said, then she turned and walked out.

Upon seeing this, Senior Patriarch Guo paused for a while, then he watched Feng Jiu and the others go out and he left some instructions with the dark guard and walked out.

Outside the Manor, more and more people gathered to watch. All of them watched as Patriarch Li and the Patriarch argued about some matter. The two families were regarded as century-old families in the city, and they never expected the day would come when the two of them would fight.

But, what was it that caused them to argue?

“Hey, do you know why the Li Family have come to see the Guo Family? Why would the Li Family suddenly come knocking on their door?” An onlooker asked the people around him.

Upon hearing this, a man who knew the situation said with a smile: “What else can it be? Do you see Young Master Li? Last night, he had too much to drink at Exquisite Pavilion and tried to molest a girl. Apparently the girl had two men with her at the time, as well as Young Master Guo. When he failed to molest her, he was kicked down the stairs. Many people at the Exquisite Pavilion saw it happen.”

“I see! Why are the Li Family not embarrassed and have come knocking on their door? Young Master Li’s character has always been unsavoury. Now that such a thing has happened, it could only be him who would have the nerve to come knocking on their door.”

“Apparently, the person who kicked Young Master Li down the stairs is not a member of the Guo Family. Patriarch Li probably came to beat the man up after he heard about it. If it had been someone from the Guo Family who had injured him, he probably wouldn’t make such a big deal about it!”

“Yes, after all, Senior Patriarch Li is still in charge, and his friendship with Senior Patriarch Guo is quite good. The relationship just became estranged when it came to their sons’ generation.”

The people around were discussing this and their voices passed into the ears of the Li Family and Guo Family. Patriarch Guo’s face darkened slightly, he looked at Patriarch Li and said: “I advise you to suppress this matter! It’s not going to do you any good to make a big deal out of it.”

“What? Your Guo Family wants to protect an outsider? Who is that person to you?” Patriarch Li sneered, clearly not taking his words seriously.

“He hurt my son so badly, do you think that your Guo Family doesn’t owe me an explanation?”

Patriarch Guo frowned and looked at him without speaking. Then, a somewhat indifferent voice came from behind him and he looked back suddenly.

He saw Feng Jiu in azure clothes walking out slowly, her eyes falling on Patriarch Li’s body with an inexplicable look in her eyes, along with a hint of dangerous aura. He stepped aside when he saw this scene instinctively and stood beside her.

The stern coldness in her eyes made him shudder. He had said that Feng Jiu was unfathomably dangerous, no matter how she appeared. Only people like the Li Family who were reckless and impulsive would act so carelessly.

“I was the one who injured him, what do you want me to say?”

Feng Jiu stopped, her clear eyes swept across the crowd and landed on Patriarch Li.
