The servant flinched under the loud yell of Long Tingyang, it was not that he was lying, in fact, he was telling the truth.
However, the truth was that Long Tingyang could not withstand it, Xeiyin knew that Long Tingyang hated and despised Xie Li, thus the thought of Long Ju doing something like that with Xie Li and even letting him carry the child of the Long family was simply unacceptable by Long Tingyang.
What was more, if Long Ju did such a thing against Xie Li against his will then she was simply worse than a beast! In such a case who owed who? This was a question that would arise in the hearts of many.
' Why is he getting angry at me? Was I the one who pushed Xie Li to his sister's bed? Unless she did not want to do it with him who had the audacity to make Long Ju sleep with Xie Li?' Xeiyin thought angrily in his head. However he only dared to think such thoughts in his head, he did not dare to say anything out loud.
The pay that he received from the Long family was much better than the rest of the aristocratic and rich families. Even though he was a bit upset with how Long Tingyang screamed at him, Xeiyin decided to ignore it as he put on a look of concern and then said to Long Tingyang, " Master Tingyang instead of worrying about whether or not that child belongs to Miss Long or not. Why don't we follow Miss Long? Maybe you are right? The child might not even belong to Miss Long."
Long Tingyang bit his lower lip gently. He really did not want to chase after his sister as he feared that the child might really belong to his sister but he couldn't sit still at home either.
This matter not only related to the purity of the bloodline of their family but also it was heavily related to the reputation of their family!
In the eyes of others, Xie Li was a servant that they had bought from someone. If they found out that a servant was carrying the child of the Long family, then where would he and his mother put their faces? They would be too humiliated to even look in the eyes of others.
What was more given how much his sister tormented Xie Li, if the child really turned out to be his sister then he might be too embarrassed to face Xie Li ever again. Long Tingyang was a mer and he knew how much a mer's virtue mattered to him. Even if he was a mer who was free to bed anyone, he would really despise the person who dared to touch him against his will.
For him sleeping with someone willingly and sleeping because someone forced him was two different things. He would forever find the person who forced him disgusting and vile.
If his sister really did those ugly things with Xie Li—— then he would be the one who would have to lower his head, because it would no longer be about torment but also about breaking one's spirit!
