14: Chapter 14 Too Late to Regret

This action instantly drew the attention of everyone present.

Ignoring the crowd's reaction, Qin Mo spoke slowly: "The problem mainly lies with this manor of yours."

"The manor?"

Everyone at the scene looked at Qin Mo in confusion.

"That's right. There's a problem with the manor's feng shui. Staying in this feng shui layout for a long time will slowly cause a person to be cursed to death, especially middle-aged people in their forties."

"Mr. Murong wasn't truly dead just now; he was in a state between life and death. That's why I was able to save him. If he were truly dead, I wouldn't have such ability."

"So that's how it is!"

Everyone present realized the truth. The middle-aged doctor was even more overwhelmed with shame; he had almost caused the loss of a human life...

"Holy crap! So that was it. I thought the Dog Streamer really could bring people back from the dead!"

"Still, you have to admire that the Dog Streamer's medical skills are truly amazing!"

"Why does it feel like the Dog Streamer knows everything? First Physiognomy, then feng shui, fortune-telling, and medical skills. It's like there's nothing he can't do..."

"Crap! Now that you mention it, it really seems that way!"

...

Qin Mo continued: "And the person who set up this feng shui layout is Murong Junjun... No! To be precise, it was the feng shui master he hired. The goal was to curse Mr. Murong to death, then use his status as a direct relative to inherit all of the Murong family's estate."

"So that's what happened. I never expected that a big influencer, so glamorous on the surface, would secretly be a parricidal demon."

"The debt of being raised can never be repaid, yet he... this is truly eye-opening."

"Why did you do this? Have I ever treated you poorly? From the age of five, which of your needs for food, clothing, housing, or transportation wasn't funded by me? Even your current status as an influencer with millions of followers—wasn't that due to my help behind the scenes?"

Murong Jiaxing's face was pale as he stared straight at Murong Junjun.

At this point, Murong Junjun decided to just let it all out since the secret was already exposed.

"You helped me? What use is helping me more? Can it bring my mother back to life? My mother is already dead!"

"Aren't you the culprit? If you had appeared sooner, would my mother have passed away because she couldn't afford medical treatment?"

As he said this, Murong Junjun's face became incredibly distorted.

"So! I want you dead! I want to seize all your family property! I want your family ruined!"

"You..."

Hearing his son's response, Murong Jiaxing staggered back a few steps, momentarily speechless from rage.

"Do you want to know the truth?"

At this moment, Qin Mo, who had been watching from the side, spoke calmly.

Murong Junjun seemed to snap out of it slightly and subconsciously asked: "Wha... what truth?"

"By the time your mother met Mr. Murong, she was already terminally ill. Because of a family marriage alliance, your father could only have an underground relationship with your mother."

"Your father didn't want a girl in the prime of her life to wither away like that, so he traveled across the world during those years just to find a way to cure your mother."

"However, as time passed, your mother's illness grew more severe. Mr. Murong still couldn't find a way to treat her, and eventually, she passed away."

"Mr. Murong had his own family and couldn't give you any official status, so he converted his guilt toward your mother into material support for you. Otherwise, do you think things would have gone so smoothly for you all these years? Which of your successes didn't have Mr. Murong's shadow behind it?"

"Moreover, if Mr. Murong hadn't used medicine to forcibly extend your mother's life when her illness wasn't yet that severe, how could you have even been born?"

"This... this isn't true! No! This isn't true! Then why did you have to provoke my mother... I... this isn't true! Ah!!!"

By now, Murong Junjun was already kneeling on the ground, wailing loudly, appearing somewhat pitiful.

Qin Mo continued: "I think you've misunderstood. It wasn't Mr. Murong who provoked your mother. On the contrary, it was your mother who took the initiative to find him. I suppose... in that era, your mother didn't realize the man she loved was already betrothed..."

"Waaa... Dad..."

At this moment, Murong Junjun completely broke down, wailing as he called out that long-buried title.

He hadn't expected his father to have done so much for his mother. He... had almost killed his own father.

He had failed his mother; he wasn't human, he...

At this time, Murong Jiaxing stood there with tears streaming down his face. However, the pain in his heart was not something that could be covered up by a single cry of 'Father.'

After all, no matter how close someone is, if they are almost killed by their own son, their heart won't find peace easily, right?

Besides, if he really died, what would happen to his wife and precious daughter?

Thinking of this, Murong Jiaxing turned away in pain, ignoring Murong Junjun who was kneeling on the ground.

Murong Junjun stared blankly at Murong Jiaxing, but when he thought about what he had done, he felt a sense of resignation. It was all his own doing. If he had investigated carefully, perhaps this situation wouldn't have occurred.

However, there is no medicine for regret in this world...

No one at the scene was untouched by this scene; everyone shed tears.

"Waaa... Dog Streamer, why are you stabbing me in the heart like this! I really can't take it!"

"Fortunately Murong Jiaxing didn't die, otherwise Murong Junjun would have completely collapsed..."

"Damn it, I'm a warrior, I'm illiterate!"

"Waaa... to the person above, the Streamer is narrating verbally, there's no text..."

"Why the hell did you reply to me? I know, waaa..."

Just then, Murong Junjun suddenly ran to the camera of Qin Mo's livestream, weeping bitterly.

"I... I'm the fraud. It has nothing to do with Brother Mo. The videos and the narrative posted online were all orchestrated by me. Brother Mo didn't lie! He's the real deal, he's truly amazing!"

"Damn you trolls, I told you the Streamer was being slandered and not a single person believed me! Now all you trolls' faces are swollen from being slapped, aren't they?"

"This... just a passerby, but I've become a fan!"

"Becoming a fan +1"

"Say no more, Brother Mo, I was wrong!"

Executioner sent carnival × 1

"Say no more, Brother Mo, I was wrong too!"

Hand-crafting Nuclear Bombs to Blast Ants sent carnival × 1

Loves Eating Oly-G sent Supercar × 10

For a moment, the livestream was filled with apologies and gifts.

...

"Someone reported that there's a fraud here!"

Just then, a majestic voice came through, and several Uncle Hats walked in with vigorous strides.

Everyone present was instantly bewildered. Who was the fraud?

At this moment, the middle-aged doctor's face felt hot. He had originally thought Qin Mo was a fraud, but it turned out the man was the real deal...

"Hahaha... someone must have thought the Dog Streamer was a fraud when he was saving the person just now and secretly called the police!"

"Haha, I want to know which 'genius' is getting their face slapped right now?"

"Actually, you can't blame them; you can only say the Dog Streamer is too badass!"

"Too badass +1"

"Badass +1"

??

...

"Uncle Hats, did you make a mistake? There's no fraud here?"

At this time, Elder Murong, his eyes old and tearful, asked in confusion.

"Correct! There is indeed no fraudster anymore, but there is now a criminal for attempted murder and tax evasion!"

A young Uncle Hat stepped out from the crowd, staring at Murong Junjun with a serious expression as he spoke.
