Chapter 588 Yi Jie Was Not That Weak

General Li couldn\'t believe the words he heard.

Xi Ying also looked surprised that Li Rui knew this. But then he thought that it must be Li Hua who told her about this matter. But he was a little conflicted inside his heart now.

Should he tell Rui that Li Caihong was caught by his people?

What if she asked him to free her? Xi Ying didn\'t wish to do that actually. He wanted to make Li Caihong\'s life so worse that she would regret whatever bad she had done to his wife.

But he didn\'t know whether Li Rui wanted the same or not.

Before he could say anything, a whisper sounded in the silent living room.

"Ran away…"

Everyone came out of their thoughts and looked towards the door of the living room.

"Yi Jie…"

General Li\'s blank eyes gained their focus back when he saw his wife standing at the door of the living room with an equally blank face and eyes.

He immediately walked towards her and supported her frail body in his arms. Her body looked much weaker than after the poison had been removed.

Her pale face only increased the distress in General Li\'s eyes.

"She ran away…Heng."

Yi Jie spoke with bitterness-filled eyes as she looked at her husband. Her heart seemed to be wrenched by something as he continued

"It must be Li Rong who helped her in running away."

Yi Jie didn\'t even wish to call Li Rong \'Elder Sister-In-Law\'. Li Rui noticed this and she couldn\'t help but feel surprised when she sensed the bitterness in her mother\'s voice.

However, Yi Jie looked unaware of everything. She was just too much angry. She felt aggrieved for her daughter. General Li tried to calm her down but she clutched her husband\'s arms and continued to speak.

"Her daughters did so much to my daughter. They did everything that…that not even a step-sister would not think of doing and she is still protecting them with her whole heart, Heng."

Yi Jie was breathing heavily as she said all this so General Li felt panicked.

"Calm down, Yi Jie…we will talk later. You should rest for some time."

However, Yi Jie refused to move from there. Clutching her husband\'s arms firmly, she said coldly

"I don\'t ever wish to see her face, Heng. I don\'t ever wish to see her daughters."

Tears spilled out of her eyes that was how angry Yi Jie was feeling right now.

Li Caihong ran away. She saved herself from the punishment that was already nothing in front of what she did to Li Rui.

The fact didn\'t settle well with Yi Jie at all.

On the other hand, Xi Ying who had never liked Li Rui\'s mother much in the past was looking at her with a thoughtful expression on her face.

Yi Jie was a better parent in Xi Ying\'s eyes than General Li who didn\'t look too angry after knowing whatever his nieces did to his daughter.

But Yi Jie…she looked like the mother who wished to destroy everything because her children were harmed. She had the sensibleness of looking guilty for not being able to protect her daughter but General Li would only defend himself whenever he tried to tell him that he did many wrong things to Li Rui.

Perhaps it was these thoughts that made Xi Ying step forward and say to the raging Yi Jie.

Or perhaps he knew that he won\'t be able to hide anything from Li Rui so Xi Ying chose this way to reveal everything. He just wished that Yi Jie would support him just as he was expecting and hence Li Rui would not stop him from doing what he wanted to do to Li Caihong.

"Li Caihong didn\'t run away from the Imperial City."

Yi Jie heard Xi Ying and looked at him. Seeing the hope in the woman\'s eyes, Xi Ying was also filled with hope and continued

"Madam Li, this Lord\'s people caught her before she could leave the Imperial City."

There was a long silence in the living room after Xi Ying finished.

Li Rui\'s face didn\'t look so calm now and she was looking at Xi Ying with surprise-filled eyes. Actually, she still didn\'t understand what was going on.

She didn\'t know why Li Caihong ran away from Li Manor.

After all, she didn\'t know whatever happened yesterday during the banquet. She didn\'t know that her mother now knew more deeds of not only Li Sisters but also of Princess Wenling.

"Is she…"

Yi Jie just whispered this but her eyes were filled with hope now. Xi Ying could see this very clearly. He even knew what she expected him to say and he said it intentionally.

"Madam Li doesn\'t need to worry. She will surely face all the suffering she deserves because of her sins."

Relief flashed through Yi Jie\'s eyes and she closed her tear-filled eyes as she breathed deeply. General Li looked surprised when he saw this.

It was not only Xi Ying who noticed this but every person inside the room noticed this.

Xi Ying smiled suddenly as he looked at General Li\'s shocked face.

At this moment, he understood that General Li\'s wife was not as dumb and weak as General Li took her to be.

Because if she was, she would not have looked so relieved after hearing his words.

Regardless of what her husband did for her, regardless of how much Li Rui suffered because of her mother indirectly, Xi Ying understood that Yi Jie was still a very good mother.

More good of a mother than General Li as a father.

He believed that if she knew Li Na\'s Li Caihong\'s true faces before, then Li Clan would have already distributed in two or three households completely by now.

Unfortunately, she got to know everything too late.

"It is good. She and her sister…they should suffer till their last breath."

Yi Jie whispered coldly giving another shock to her husband who had never perhaps expected her to say this kind of words.

Li Rui who was wearing a confused expression finally stepped forward and looked at the three people present inside the room.

"Can anyone tell me what is going on?"
