Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 456 I didn’t kill him

　　The tongue has been severed a bit too cleanly to be done by a complete novice, the horror that reflected in Ke Lixin's dead eyes was enough evidence that he felt every bit of pain that was given to him before he was finally killed off by his captor. The sight alone was nauseating enough but the big ribbon tied to the tongue only heightened his nausea even further, it was freaking stomach curdling and no one can deny it.  Xiao Hua had taken one look at the body that was beaten black and blue, and instantly he knew that Ke Lixin was tortured beyond limits before he was executed. It was as if the person behind this killing wanted him to suffer every second before his life escaped his body. 

　　Little Zimo sat next to him rubbing the pad of his thumb on the back of Xiao Hua's hand as he softly said, " Don't worry, we won't let them drag you to the Yamen, this has nothing to do with us. We are weak, powerless mers, no way can we do something that horrible." 

　　Li Hanjing who was sitting on his right had a very complexion with a hand clasped on his mouth as he tried to stop the bile that rose in his throat before he heaved in a heavy breath before he loudly said,  " That's right, they might hate it to admit but that's the truth, we aren't cruel and as mers, we know that no mer ever deserve a life like that after all, mers' life is already dangerous enough with them being targeted left and right by women and predators. No way any mer would want to do something like killing one of their own, the entire thing is completely stupid. Hua Hua, will never do something like that, he was with us when that mer named Ke Lixin vanished from his village and like your villagers said no one saw him, how can he pick someone up and take them away without anyone finding them out? It's impossible." 

　　" It might be possible that he might have hired someone," the very distressed daddy of Ke Lixin argued back. 

　　" Like I said if someone was hired then you will have seen them! You didn't see anyone leaving the village or entering either, how can anyone kidnap him?" Li Hanjing fired back. 

　　"Yu Dong is going to lose her mind when she finds out that someone did something like that to you," commented Little Zimo as he peered out of the door looking for any sign of Yu Dong. They have send one of the mammies as soon as they found the corpse lying on the threshold of their house but of course, that was after they were done freaking out. " But then again she will keep close control of her emotions, she didn't like to show them to others in case someone takes advantage of the situation by using her emotions against her. I really don't know how she is so good at keeping her emotions contained inside her… I can't wait for her to come here and drive these freaks crazy because they surely are driving me mad." 

　　" You are not alone," sighed Xiao Hua but there was a small smiling playing on his lips, Yu Dong was very good at driving the new village head crazy. Just last week when the village head asked her to do something to help the villagers who were complaining about how she was only hiring mers and kids to help her out in the strawberry fields and Yu Dong simply stopped hiring everyone completely saying that she was going to hire the women but now that village head has said something like that, she was no longer in the mood to do as Village head Gu asked. 

　　Village head Gu had seen the result of going against Yu Dong when the last village head of ten years had to leave her post but she simply refused to let go of Yu Dong and Yu Dong on the other hand turned a deaf ear to everything that Village head Gu has to say. She had her own way to do things and this was something that Xiao Hua adored. 

　　" I am telling you that my son was a very gentle person, he wouldn't have done anything like offending someone, he only came to have a talk with this mer here and returned with a face smeared with mud and poop! If he didn't kill him then you tell me who did it?" Daddy Ke was simply refusing to believe that his son had anything to with the entire thing that went down, in his eyes Ke Lixin was some sort of angel while Xiao Hua was a demon. 

　　" He came here threatening me, asking me to stay away from my lover and asked me to quit meeting her!" Xiao Hua wasn't ashamed of admitting that he was seeing someone even when others looked at him with condescending glances, he snorted and said, " He was eyeing my lover and angered me by staking a claim on her like he meant shit to her, are you saying that I shouldn't have gotten angry? In fact, I did ask your son to leave me alone because I didn't want to fight with him but he wouldn't listen to a thing that I have to say! And you say I killed him? Have you looked at your son? He was a lot stronger than me! What nonsense are you talking about!" 

　　" I believe him," said Zhu Qian who came rushing after hearing of what happened in their house. " Xiao Hua is a lot smaller and thinner than the mer who died, if he really tried to kill your son then he would have been easily overpowered by him. With his physique, he can never take a mer on who was bigger than him." 

　　" But he did it the first time!" 

　　" That was just a fluke! I took him by surprise, and then to he was alright, wasn't he?" 

　　" You could have hired someone to wipe off my son, after all, you are the only one who had an altercation with him." 

　　" I did nothing——"

　　" If Xiao Hua really wanted to tackle your son he wouldn't have given it to anyone, he would have done it himself and that very night." Yu Dong strolled into the house looking mutinous.
