Chapter 297 Since ancient times, stone demons have been the most alluring.
Hua's father never imagined he would return to the home that had abandoned him. He was respectfully invited back, as the family needed him as their "heir" to stabilize morale. He did so out of pity, but he never expected that things would not be as simple as he thought.
He wanted to bring his wife and child home, but his parents immediately objected. They looked down on his wife's humble background and even more so on his six- or seven-year-old child who was still playing in the mud. They pressured him to sever ties with his wife and child. He refused and argued with his parents and grandparents. Unexpectedly, the elderly couple suffered a stroke during the argument. His grandfather passed away despite attempts to resuscitate him, and his grandmother followed him a few days later. His parents blamed him for the deaths of the two elders, causing him immense guilt and making it impossible for him to face his parents, wife, and child.
During this process, the parents used some tricks to create a misunderstanding between Hua's father and mother, and the two broke off all ties. Hua's mother struggled to raise Hua Zihao alone, while Hua's father remarried under pressure from his parents.
His other half is also a daughter of a wealthy family, but unlike Hua's father, she was raised as an heir from childhood, but was forced to marry because of her gender, and harbors resentment towards him.
A family formed in this way was destined to be unhappy. The woman quickly became pregnant and, through the child, secured her position as Mrs. Hua.
What happened next was a nightmare for Hua's father and Hua Zihao.
After that woman's child was born, he was immediately labeled as the heir of the Hua family. Then, right after the full moon celebration, Hua's father's parents suddenly passed away. The family's huge business should have been supported by Hua's father, but he had never systematically studied business and was at a loss when faced with a pile of documents. It was the woman who had never spoken a word to him after marrying him who took over those documents, issuing orders in Hua's father's name. Later, she even took charge of the company herself, putting the entire Hua family under her control.
After seizing power, the first thing she did was hire someone to kill Hua Zihao's mother. The existence of Hua Zihao's mother was a disgrace to a wealthy woman like herself, constantly reminding her that she shared a man with a lowly woman and even had a child with her.
Hua Zihao witnessed his mother being murdered. At the time, he was only eight years old and fell seriously ill. After waking up, he suffered from depression and for a period of time had a crazy suicidal ideation.
But he endured all of this, his heart and mind filled with revenge. Little did he expect that the person who had hurt his mother would once again extend his poisonous hand towards him.
It turned out that the woman's child wasn't a boy. She had somehow managed to deceive everyone, claiming it was a girl but a boy, and thus gaining the Hua family's inheritance. However, as the child grew older, it became impossible to continue the deception, and she didn't want her child to always see her as a boy. Finally, she hardened her heart and decided to eliminate Hua Zihao.
Upon learning of this, Hua's father wanted to stop it, but he dejectedly discovered that he was powerless to do so. The entire Hua family was in that woman's hands; he was merely a powerless member of the Hua family, without even a voice.
At the time, Hua Zihao was just a child. He lost his mother and struggled to survive in society. He used the money his mother had saved to go to school and relied on collecting recyclables for his daily expenses. He studied hard, hoping to become a strong person and avenge his mother.
Even when faced with an assassin who came to take his life, he had considered giving up and ending it all with death. But a stubborn streak within him sustained him, and he resolutely picked up a weapon, even if it was just a fruit knife.
He fought for his life, suffering countless wounds in exchange for a chance to survive and escape.
He was lucky; after escaping, he met an old man who saved him. With the old man's help, he entered his current school. The principal of this school has a powerful family background, but Hua Zihao didn't know what they did. He only knew that as long as he was in the school, the assassins hired by that woman couldn't do anything to him.
After hiding for a while, Hua Zihao began to actively confront the assassins who came to take his life. He used those assassins who licked blood from the edge of a knife as practice, and with his body covered in scars, he learned a whole set of kung fu skills without a teacher. Now he can ensure his safety without relying on the school's protection.
It was as if he and that woman were locked in a battle of wits; one constantly sent assassins to kill him, while the other openly confronted them. Meanwhile, Hua Zihao was secretly developing his own power, but progress was slow due to the woman's obstruction.
If Yu Liu hadn't come into this world, Hua Zihao's subsequent experiences would have been incredibly dark. That woman eventually ran out of patience and decided to eliminate Hua Zihao once and for all. Hua's father did indeed seek out a master to obtain a magical artifact that supposedly possessed a spirit; however, the master was only a novice, and the artifact was merely an ordinary piece of bloodstone, proving utterly useless. Hua Zihao ultimately couldn't escape this ambush and had his arm severed.
The power he had built up was gradually destroyed by that woman. With no hope of revenge, the young man lost all his hope and fell into darkness. He killed someone.
Hidden in the shadows, he used all sorts of unbelievable techniques to compensate for the loss of an arm. All employees of the Hua family's businesses were his targets. As a multinational corporation with tens of thousands of employees in China, the constant murders had created widespread fear and anxiety within the company.
As more and more people died and their positions rose, the woman knew that she was Hua Zihao's ultimate target. She deliberately lured him out, and Hua Zihao ultimately fell into her trap, losing his life.
He died before he was even 20 years old, and his life was only a third of the way through. It ended so abruptly. Perhaps it was because of this, or perhaps it was for something else, but someone made a wish, and Yu Liu came.
Yu Liu's current responsibility is to protect Hua Zihao from harm and to pay close attention to his mental health. No one can afford to be a psychopathic killer.
Revenge is acceptable, but involving innocent people only adds to one's karma. Yu Liu has already written this down in her little notebook and reminds herself of it constantly.
Unfortunately, Yu Liu's confidence was quickly dashed when she discovered that her human form looked like a female ghost, not at all like a good person!! How could she possibly win over A Ning without a cute appearance? QAQ!
