Chapter 219 Did I give you face?

"What do you want?"

When Luo Jiwu heard what Li Guoqiang said, his face darkened, and then he suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a cold voice.

At this point, he knew that there was no point in covering up or explaining anymore, and it would only add to the joke.

If he had to blame anyone, he could only blame his own bad luck. He didn't expect Li Guoqiang to suddenly come back at this time.

"No no no!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang immediately shook his head and said, "You shouldn't ask me this question, but you should ask yourself."

"What I want to do depends entirely on what you want to do next."

"If you can promise not to interfere with the affairs between me and Sister Juan in the future, then for Sister Juan's sake, I can pretend that this incident never happened."

"If you insist on destroying my marriage with Sister Juan, then I can only let you rest in peace soon."

After saying that, he lightly stomped his foot, and the three blue bricks under his feet cracked directly.

Seeing this, Luo Jiwu's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he looked at Li Guoqiang in shock.

As a veteran, he was also someone who had seen the world, so he naturally knew very well what Li Guoqiang's move represented.

This means that Li Guoqiang has at least practiced martial arts to the level of Ming Jin.

It also means that if Li Guoqiang came up to him and punched him on the head, he might really die unclearly. Even if he was sent to the hospital, it would only be considered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage.

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly tightened, and then he swallowed unconsciously.

Then he opened his mouth and asked in a hoarse voice: "Who did you learn martial arts from?"

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted when he saw Luo Jiwu's reaction, then he said with a laugh: "You don't have to worry about this matter, just tell me what you want to do next?"

Hearing this, a look of humiliation flashed across Luo Jiwu's face, and then he threatened in a deep voice: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Xiaojuan and Xiaofu everything you just said?"

"If they knew that you wanted to kill their grandfather, how do you think they would look at you?"

"By then, do you think you can still marry Xiaojuan?"

"Besides, since you have recovered and learned martial arts, you can find any girl you want in the future. Why do you have to hold on to Xiaojuan?"

"Just consider it as a plea from me. My greatest wish in this life is to pass on the incense of the Lao Luo family. Can you please stop pestering Xiao Juan?"

"Ah!"

Seeing that Luo Jiwu was still so confused, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but said with a smile, "Actually, I don't think you really need to beg me. You said that my body has been cured now. If you go and ask my father to change Xiaofu's surname to Luo and help the Luo family pass on the incense, do you think he will agree?"

[Yeah! Why didn’t I think of that! ]

When Luo Jiwu heard what Li Guoqiang said, he was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help but slap his thigh.

The reason why he had gone to such great lengths to force Luo Huijuan to marry a live-in husband was because Li Guoqiang was a sickly person and could not carry on the Li family's bloodline, so he needed Li Guofu's help to carry on the bloodline.

Now that Li Guoqiang has recovered, there is naturally no need for Li Guofu to carry on the Li family's legacy in the future.

And Li Guofu is a close descendant of the Luo family. Who else could be more suitable than Li Guofu to carry on the Luo family's heritage?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He then quickly looked up at Li Guoqiang and asked expectantly, "Did your father ask you to tell me these words?"

"no!"

Li Guoqiang shook his head and said softly: "These words are just my kind reminder to let you know how stupid you are."

Luo Jiwu: “.”

"okay!"

Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Don't think so much now. As long as I don't agree, I believe my father will never agree to let Xiaofu change his surname."

"do not!"

Hearing this, Luo Jiwu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said in a flattering tone: "Qiangzi, no matter what, I watched you grow up, and when you and Xiaojuan get married, you have to call me grandpa. You can't just watch me die and become a wandering ghost, right?"

"I admit that I was wrong in what I did before. If you have any requests, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation."

"Okay!"

Li Guoqiang's eyes narrowed slightly, then he nodded and said with a smile: "Since you said so, I am not an unreasonable person."

"As long as you can chop off the two thumbs of the person who wrote the letter, and then make the grandson-in-law you like kneel down and apologize to me, then I promise not to stop this matter."

"This"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiwu frowned suddenly, and then looked at Li Guoqiang hesitantly.

Among them, it was not too difficult to make his comrade-in-arms' grandson kneel down and apologize to Li Guoqiang. He only needed to use the kindness he had received over the years to coerce the other party.

What made him feel most embarrassed and difficult was that Li Guoqiang asked him to chop off the thumb of the person who helped him write the letter.

Not to mention whether he is willing to do it, even if he is willing, he doesn't have the ability.

Who knows, before he could chop off someone's thumb, he would be caught and given free porridge.

Unless he can spend enough money to hire someone to help him get it done.

But among the people he knew, those who had the ability to accomplish this were basically all his comrades-in-arms.

How could he ask for help in doing such a dangerous thing without any reason?
After thinking it over, he still couldn't come up with a perfect solution, so he could only try to ask: "Um, Qiangzi, can you change your request?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I asked the Nine Gates Commander Guan under the Zhengyang Gate Tower to help me write those two letters."

"He helped me out of kindness. If you have any dissatisfaction, just come to me. There's no need to vent your anger on him!"

"How about I chop off my two thumbs and give them to you?"

After saying that, he looked at Li Guoqiang fearlessly, waiting for Li Guoqiang to nod, and then he would go to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and chop off his thumb.

Although it will be painful, this little pain is nothing to him as a veteran.

In comparison, he was more afraid that Li Guofu would not be able to pass on the Luo family's bloodline.

"No need!"

Li Guoqiang rolled his eyes, and then said unhappily: "Anyway, my conditions are the two requirements I just mentioned. If you can do it, then we are even. If you can't do it, then there is no need to discuss it."

In fact, what he wanted was not the two thumbs, but evidence that Luo Jiwu had hired someone to commit murder. With this evidence, he could send Luo Jiwu to jail at any time.

Originally he was a little worried that the other party's identity was not important enough, but he didn't expect that the person who helped write the letter would be the old man Guan, who was known as the Nine Gates Admiral.

This way, there will be something interesting to watch.

"There really is no need to discuss?"

Seeing Li Guoqiang's attitude, Luo Jiwu asked with some unwillingness.

"Not negotiable!"

Li Guoqiang shook his head and spoke with a firm face.

After saying that, he looked at Luo Jiwu's very ugly face, and continued meaningfully: "After all, even a child should know that if you do something wrong, you have to pay the price."

"Unless you can come up with a bargaining chip that will satisfy me more than this, otherwise, you should think carefully about what to do!"

Hearing this, Luo Jiwu was silent for a moment, and at the same time he felt a sense of regret.

If he had changed his mind earlier, or if he had found a way to force Luo Huijuan to submit two years ago, he would not have ended up in this situation now.

Originally, he was thinking of waiting until Luo Huijuan was older before asking her to find a live-in husband. However, who would have thought that Luo Huijuan had already let Yao Meilan and Li Dawei become child brides for Li Guoqiang!
All in all, it's all Yao Meilan's fault.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling dissatisfied and angry towards Yao Meilan, and then suddenly he came up with a good idea.

[Didn't this brat say before that his life was saved by Lan Zi? Then I can agree to it first, and then let Lan Zi come forward to persuade this brat. Anyway, I have the letter of guarantee written by Lan Zi, so I am not afraid that she will not agree. ]

Soon, he made up his mind, nodded and agreed: "Okay, then give me some time, I'll tell you when I'm done!"

"Row!"

Li Guoqiang didn't think much after hearing this, he just nodded and said: "Then you should do it as soon as possible, preferably in the next two days."

After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly he thought of something and hurriedly continued, "By the way, remember not to tell anyone about this, especially my parents, Sister Juan, and Xiaofu."

"If you let them know about this, you won't be able to change Xiaofu's last name."

Hearing this, Luo Jiwu's mood suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse, and he hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute!"

"What's the matter?"

Li Guoqiang paused and looked at Luo Jiwu meaningfully.

Although he didn't know why Luo Jiwu suddenly agreed to his request, this did not prevent him from eliminating unstable factors in advance.

Otherwise, do you really think he is so easy to talk to?
Luo Jiwu stared at Li Guoqiang for a while, then supported himself on the bed with his hands, leaned forward, and knelt directly on the ground.

"Hey!"

Li Guoqiang frowned when he saw this, then quickly stepped aside and said with an unhappy look on his face, "Hey, old man, what are you doing?"

"Hadron!"

Luo Jiwu straightened up with some difficulty, and then said in a deep voice: "It's all my fault. I'm here to kneel down and apologize to you."

After saying that, he didn't care whether Li Guoqiang agreed or not and just knocked to the ground.

With a series of "bang bang bang" sounds, his forehead suddenly became red and swollen.

Just as he was about to continue knocking until Li Guoqiang let go, his shoulder was suddenly held down tightly by a slender, strong hand with distinct knuckles.

Then he looked up and saw that Li Guoqiang had walked towards him at some point and was looking at him with an unfriendly face.

That cold look made him feel a chill in his heart.

"Did I give you face?"

Li Guoqiang exerted a little force on his hand, pinched Luo Jiwu's shoulder blade, and then asked in a cold voice: "Do you think that moral blackmail like this can make me forgive you?"

"You know, you almost planted a prairie on my head."

"You are already old now. Haven't you heard that there are four major hatreds in life, including hatred for the loss of one's country, hatred for the extermination of one's family, hatred for having one's wife taken away, and hatred for having one's father killed?"

"If it were the old times, a selfish and sinister villain like you would have been hacked to death long ago."

"If it weren't for Sister Juan and Xiao Fu, do you think you could still talk to me so easily now?"

Having said that, he forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart, then gently pushed Luo Jiwu to the ground.

Luo Jiwu staggered a little and stretched out his hands to support his body. The pain from his shoulder blade made his face turn pale.

In fact, he was not unaware of how abominable his behavior was, but he had no choice but to let Li Guoqiang suffer because of this obsession in his heart.

"okay!"

Li Guoqiang looked at Luo Jiwu, who seemed to be keeping silent, and waved his hands hastily, saying impatiently, "Stop sitting on the ground pretending to be dead. Get up quickly."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiwu couldn't help but look at Li Guoqiang with some embarrassment, then reached out to grab the edge of the bed and climbed up little by little.

After he sat down, Li Guoqiang pondered for a moment, thinking of how good Luo Huijuan, Li Guofu and Yao Meilan had been to him over the years, and the anger in his heart couldn't help but dissipate a lot.

Then, he glanced at Luo Jiwu's empty trouser leg, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air from his chest, and said softly: "How about this! Considering that you are Sister Juan's grandfather and Sister Juan is my wife, I can change the conditions."

"Now, as long as you can swear in front of the ancestors of your Luo family that you will not do anything that is detrimental to me or this family, and then write me a letter of guarantee, I will not bother with you about this matter for now."

"Okay, then let's make an agreement!"

When Luo Jiwu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly and loudly agreed.

After saying that, he moved to the bedside impatiently and searched for pen and paper in the bedside table.

Li Guoqiang looked at Luo Jiwu's actions, and a hint of helplessness flashed across his face.

In fact, he had thought about directly crippling Luo Jiwu, or quietly making Luo Jiwu disappear from this world.

However, doing so would easily affect his relationship with Luo Huijuan, Li Guofu, and Yao Meilan.

What's more, Luo Jiwu had just knelt down and kowtowed to apologize to him, and he also used his strong force to crack the other's shoulder blade, which was enough to cause him pain for ten days or half a month.

As the saying goes, killing is not enough, so forgive others when you can.

After all, he has not suffered any substantial harm. In order to avoid greater conflicts with his family, he can only choose to give a light punishment and a stern warning, and let Luo Jiwu go for the time being to see the results.
