淫欲的代价

Chapter 54 The CEO's Runaway Omega And Three Little Buns 32



At first, the Zhang madam just nitpicked on Li Shiyu\'s every action with comments on how Li Shiyu\'s appearance in their lives ruined everything but as the months went by and they had to spend progressively lesser, the humiliation got worse.

CRASH!

The Zhang madam swiped everything on the dining table to the ground. The large sounds caused the kids to cower in fear and run up to their room. Next, she took the bowl of soup that she\'d missed and dumped it over Li Shiyu\'s head.

"What nonsense is this? Do I look like an animal to you? How do you expect me to stomach this?!"

The first few months had been bearable. They still had some money left so even if no one in the house could cook, they ordered meals and passed their days as peacefully as they could, Li Shiyu\'s earlier claims of the kids getting stomach ache from takeouts long forgotten.

As more time went by, the Zhang madam couldn\'t handle the mundane life anymore. She was used to attending different social functions weekly and having the other madams fawn over her.

So now that she couldn\'t, she became a laughing stock. She could not handle the humiliation so she used up the money they had left to buy expensive clothes and jewelry and to pay her way into different social functions in order to keep up appearances.

When the money ran out, she resorted to selling the various antiques lying around the house and once that was used up, she resorted to selling the furniture. The Zhang mansion was now a skeleton of its former glorious self.

When she ran out of things to sell to fund her expensive lifestyle, she went back to square one. That is, lying around the house doing nothing, except this time, she started nagging at everyone.

It got so bad that the family head started spending more and more of his time outside until one day, he stopped coming home altogether. The older alpha had practically disappeared from their lives.

With all the money gone, they had to stop ordering takeouts and opt for home cooked meals instead. The Zhang madam had being living in affluence for a very long time, with servants at her beck and call so how could she do such a \'low class\' thing as cooking?

This left the cooking, cleaning and laundry to the only other adult left in the mansion, Li Shiyu. The problem was, Li Shiyu had also been a pampered omega all his life, where on earth would he have had the chance to learn to do those kinds of things?

Occurrences like this when the Zhang madam threw the food he prepared in his face weren\'t few but he swallowed up all the insults. He believed that once Zhang Jun got out of jail and see what he had to go through for his sake, the alpha would love him even more.

There were just two months left before Zhang Jun came back to him. He\'d persevered till this moment, waiting a little more would was nothing at this point.

He lowered his head pitifully. "Mother, where did I go wrong this time?" He was sure the quality of his meals had improved over time. The kids were no longer getting sent to the hospital every three days over a stomach ache.

"Don\'t mother me! Where did you not go wrong?! You\'ve ruined the Zhang family with your bad luck. Everybody\'s gone, even my husband and it\'s all because of you!"

Li Shiyu bit the inside of his cheek. This Zhang madam was truly too shameless. She\'d chased the family head away with her constant nagging and now she was blaming him.

"Just how useless as you?" The Zhang madam continued. "You are clearly aware that we\'ve run out of money and yet you refuse to get a job. Are you waiting for me to go out there and make money for you? Where\'s your respect for your elders?"

Li Shiyu remained silent. The old lady was aware of the fact that he had inadequate academic qualifications. He\'d dropped out of college when his parents died and moved abroad. What on earth was he going to use to get a job?

The only jobs available for someone with his qualification were menial jobs but how was he supposed to do those? He\'d never worked a day in his entire life! She was clearly demanding for too much. If not for Zhang Jun~

"I\'ll do better next time," He said through gritted teeth. He was so close to snapping at the ungrateful woman. When the Zhang madam only sneered at him in disdain, he walked away to get the cleaning supplies.

Time flew by and Li Shiyu endured more and more insults as he watched Li Anjing and his sons bask in the limelight. Two of their major deals had been completed and there were receiving praise from all over for a job well done.

He clenched his fists in envy whenever he saw Li Yexi accompanying his brother to social functions and being treated like a prince. What did he do to deserve such treatment?!

Media reporters were also quick to praise the omega like he was an angel, they seem to have forgotten how, some months ago, they were condemning the omega for being a child abuser.

Li Shu had used the power of the Li Group to sue those media outlets for defamation of character and had won the case as the reporters didn\'t have any proof of the proclaimed child abuse.

This shut everybody up but it didn\'t end there, several articles had popped up, written by anonymous users that further debunked the claims of the reporters with hard logic. Li Shiyu wasn\'t mentioned in any of the articles though.

The writer just focused on proving how impossible it is for the kids to have been abused by Li Yexi. Several popular bloggers also spoke on the topic and even one in particular offhandedly mentioned how Li Shiyu might have been deliberately targeting Li Yexi.

Li Shiyu had seen the post and his heart hurt. It was all Li Shu\'s fault, he was sure that his alpha cousin was behind the anonymous posts. He had the power and money to make it happen.

\'Just what exactly had he done to them?\' Li Shiyu thought. They clearly knew that writing such an article would make him look bad but they did it anyways. Why wouldn\'t they just let him be?

Soon enough, the day Zhang Jun was to be released was finally here. Li Shiyu was beyond excited and even the Zhang madam had a rare smile on her face. They hadn\'t seen Zhang Jun since he was convicted.

They\'d gone over to visit once but the alpha had forbidden them from going since then. Li Shiyu was sad but Zhang Jun had assured the omega that it was because he didn\'t want them to see him in such a state.

The Zhang madam, Li Shiyu and the kids were all waiting outside the gates of the mansion when a cab pulled up.

Zhang Jun got out of the vehicle in the same clothes he had been wearing the day he was arrested. The alpha was a bit emaciated but still managed to look dashing and give off an imposing aura.

Li Shiyu choked on a sob and ran over to hug Zhang Jun. His man was finally free! All his suffering had been worth it. Soon, Li Yexi would be the one to wallow in jealousy and regret!
