《Tiger Wife, Lion Husband (Love In The Realms) #1》Chapter 37: Investigation
Advertisement
Liu Gang had gone over to the Xue Manor, he saw Duke Xue Cheng and Duke Zhen Tao as they all greeted one another. "General Liu, we are thankful that you've come to help investigate this matter. It's just like eleven years ago."
"I'm doing it for Liang. For the woman I love I will do anything. Let us start and talk with all the servants, maids and guards." He then felt hands tug at his hand as he turned to look down. Xue Li and Xue Yahui we're crying as they looked at Liu Gang.
"Find the one who hurt your mother! Mother never did anything but she got hurt for it." Both boys were crying now as he bowed down and rubbed their heads.
"I will do it for you both also. Don't worry we'll find the one who did it." Su Rong then took over, smiling and wiping their eyes with her handkerchiefs as Duke Zhen Tao saw the flower on her handkerchief, a white lily flower as it reminded him of Su Lei's handkerchief that had a red lily.
She smiled looking down at them as she smiled. "Little boys will find the one who did it. During that time you both have to be strong and practice your martial arts." They nodded and held onto their small wooden swords. She got back up as they all went ahead into the room. Duke Zhen Tao couldn't keep his suspicion off her as he wanted to know who she was.
"I don't know how to start but General Liu do you have any ideas who would have wanted to do this?" Duke Xue asked.
"Judging from how devastated and saddened Liang is. The person wanted to hurt her and make her regret something she did but Liang has never hurt anyone but has only helped everyone." Liu Gang informed all of them. Duke Xue Cheng nodded as they were in deep thoughts.

"Rong, do you have anyone in particular that wants to hurt her? You've been with Liang since birth." Duke Xue Cheng asked her.
"I'm sorry Duke Xue but I've never met anyone who hates Liang. Everyone loves her and cares about her. Besides everyone she's met are very far away but this person knows the Xue Manor's palace very well. Everyone usually gets lost in this Manor but not this person." Su Rong said.
"So you're saying that one of the Xue family did this." They looked at Duke Xue Cheng as he sighed. "You're saying it could be Ya or Madam Shen." They all nodded as he held his head sitting down.
"Who is your mother Miss Rong?" Duke Zhen Tao then looked at her as Peng Lim stood close to her.
"My Mother is Su Lei." He then went up close to her as he then took out a handkerchief as it had a red lily.
Su Rong gasped as she looked at him. "Why do you have my mother's favorite red lily?" Su Rong took out her handkerchief as it had a white lily stitch.
"You're my daughter. Your mother and I fell in love but she chose to stay with Madam Ling. I've watched her from afar but I became busy and I never knew she had you." He looked at her as he had an expression of guilt and sadness. "You look just like your mother." Su Rong felt tears fall while Peng Lim hugged her.
"Rong, let's go outside and take a breather real quick." Peng Lim said, leading her out. Duke Zhen Tao watched her go as he sighed.

"I never knew that a child's life could be changed by such an impact of a parent's fault." Duke Zhen Tao said.

"That's how I feel." Duke Xue Cheng said as he stood up next to Duke Zhen Tao.
"It was like that with me and Yahui, he's not my real son but he endured staying with us and he held the burden of knowing I wasn't his real father. I decided to raise him as my own cause of his mother and father's fault. I'm repaying it by raising him."
"If you both want to discuss the incident another time then we can do so." Liu Gang got up as he was about to leave.
"No, let us find the culprit now. I'll have my men keep an eye on Madam Shen." Duke Zhen Tao then said.
"I'll have mine watch Ya, she may not seem like it but I worry she is more than what we see." Duke Xue Cheng could only watch as he wanted to find the one who did it. Xue Ya had seen her kind and gentle side; her hidden side was only shown to Xue Liang.
"I'll leave you both to it then. I can only let you both bring me the information." Liu Gang then said.

They nodded as one left after another. Duke Zhen Tao saw Su Rong, she was hugging Peng Lim as she cried in his arms. "I miss my mother." Peng Lim kept comforting her, having Duke Zhen Tao only allowed to watch his daughter cry in her lover's arms.
"Rong, I will definitely find the one who did this to your mother. I've already let her down, I can't let you down too." He walked off as he called his men to start the observation with Zhen Jun. Going home as Su Rong cried herself to sleep in Peng Lim's arms, carrying her bridal style to Liu Gang's Manor.

Xue Liang was drinking tea, she saw Su Rong as she quickly rushed to see her. "What happened?!"
"She met a certain man that was never there in her life." Peng Lim said as Xue Liang led him to Peng Lim and Su Rong's bed chamber.
"Let her rest and give her something simple to eat." He nodded as Peng Lim stayed with her.
Xue Liang went back to see Liu Gang was waiting for her in their bedroom. "Mind telling me why you're more concerned about your maid than your husband." Xue Liang turned around about to leave as he said, "Stop."
She closed her eyes harshly as she was turning back slowly, opening her eyes to see him in a serious but evil look. She quickly ran for it as he ran after her. She ran but he then caught her by a shortcut and carried her, tossing her onto their bed. "I'm going to punish you for all the times I said so. For going to Miss Rong first I'm not going to hold back." Xue Liang couldn't rest all night as Liu Gang wasn't going to stop.
"Gang... let me... Mhm~... rest." Her back faced him as he bit her shoulder lightly. Kissing her back, he then flipped her over as he then laid one of her legs on top of his shoulder as the other was spread to the side.
He thrusted in as she moaned coming again. "We're not done yet." His pace quickened as he then came in her as she felt sensitive all over as he then laid on top of her. Both panted heavily as she fainted from all the activity.
