The walk wasn't long Zhang wei found himself feeling extremely nervous
" What are we even going to talk about ? "
He wondered after all he had never had a normal conversation with the clan leader and each time he do managed to see him ,
he was always surrounded by important guests or simply too busy to even glanced his way
" We're here young master "
Zhang wei frowned noticing how high his voice was it wS as if he wanted to let the clan leader notice their false kindness towards him
" Come in "
Zhang wei breath grew heavy but still pushed his body into the old dark room which was medium size
There wasn't anything much worth looking apart from the old looking table and
A jade like chair placed at the center which Zhang chaun sat on with an air of authority
Zhang wei couldn't help but sigh inwardly though the clan leader was already in his mid fifties
He was still looking much younger than his actual age leaving zhang wei still speechless each time he's eyes lay on him
he wouldn't be surprised if anyone would mistake him in his thirty's instead of his actual age
" Zhang wei!! "
He called his voice calm but deep bringing Zhang wei from his thoughts
" Y yes father"
He replied simply head bow slightly not daring to look directly into his father eyes directly
" Have you learned your lesson? "
He asked the confused wei who bit his lips not daring to say since he didn't actually knows his crime to begin with
" This son is stupip and doesn't really understand what crimes he done to deserve such treatment "
He replied truthfully though he felt guilty over A Ji Ya death
Didn't mean he was ready to spend his remaining days in prison
Zhang chaun laughed at his son words but yet his eyes remain as cold as always
" At least you do know you are stupid"
He mummer under his breath with a more serious expression studying wei every movement
" Pathetic!! "
He thought the more his eyes study Zhang wei who wouldn't dare to look directly into his eyes
If it wasn't Zhang mi who had pleaded on the boy behalf,
he wouldn't even bother to remember such person as one of his children
" Zhang wei "
He called his voice loud in anger his teeth grind just looking at the boy who shiver from his sudden outburst
" Look directly at me when am talking to you boy "
He warned irritated by his cowardly attitude
He didn't reply but simply raise his head to stare directly into his eyes
There wasn't anything different about him apart from his stand which felt unbalanced from the way he stood but he wasn't quick to point out
The doctor had already informed him about his son critical condition it was even a miracle he could walk at least
Apart from his already strange white hair he's meridian were slightly broken alongside with tore muscles and tissues
" I will ask again do you really not knows the reason you were left here ? "
He asked only to receive a confused frown
" No !! "
He replied quickly while shaking his head
" Then I will help to enlightened you "
He said softly With a smiled but when look closely one would realized how dark and deep his eyes were
Making Zhang wei both uncomfortable and fearful just from looking directly into the man who claims to be his father
" Please enlighten me"
He pleaded his voice low unlike his usual tone
" Fuyao!! "
Zhang wei felt his throat dry with panic remembering the amount of deaths she caused while fleeing
If it wasn't from the guards he wouldn't had know nor believe about the brutal death's
She had cause through her actions
Remembering him once again from what her father did to him if it wasn't for the clan leader back then he was sure to had died brutally like the rest
" I'm innocent from the crimes committed by fuyao"
He replied simply he wasn't stupid enough to claim a crime which he wasn't even sure of
Zhang chaun brows raise slightly from his words
" Isn't she your wife ? "
He asked mock fully to Zhang wei who simply shook his head
" I wasn't lying when I told you she wasn't my lover infact she's simply just a close friend I had saved and had bought back to my courtyard to rest from her injuries "
He paused remembering Tang words
" As for the mother of my child she's dead unfortunately she was indeed a maid and had sadly passed away after childbirth ":
He bit his lips pretending to be sad from his words hoping deep down his father would believe his word's
after all he was indeed saying the truth apart from the rest part
Zhang chaun eyes narrow at him further watching his every body movement
Wondering if he had maken a mistake but was simply too proud to admit
" Father !! "
Zhang wei called falling on his knee's
" I know I wasn't simply too careless letting in a fu into the Zhang territory without your permission
I had thought I was simply helping a friend but unfortunately I was mistaken and because of that am willing to take as much punishment for my sin "
He bow deeply with such heartfelt words but deep down he was cursing at his bad luck and fate
Zhang chaun continue to stare at his son whom head was bow but yet he remain unmoving from the heartfelt apologies but still he couldn't deny the fact among all his children
Zhang wei was simply the most useless and unlucky one
Apart from getting rid of A Ji Ya for him there wasn't much thing he had done to give him any attention
" Stand !! "
He gesture in toward zhang wei who stood slowly head still down
" Stay here for two extra days to reflect on your actions"
With that he stood calmly
" Thank you for your understanding father "
Zhang wei quickly now deeply in gratitude which made him smile with a nod apart from being useless at least he was obeitant among his other children
" Good "
with that he walk off through the side door leaving zhang wei who felt like crying
The thought of suffering an extra two days in such hellish place was terrible enough for him
" But at least I won't be killed for now "
