Chapter 4434: Live Well

Less than an hour after Old Master Li was sent to the hospital, all the famous and powerful families in the capital city knew about it. Their former subordinates, who had also retired in the past, sent them over to take care of him immediately.

Old Master Xia put down the white chess piece between his fingers and sighed at Old Master Fu, who was holding the black chess piece with a slightly serious facial expression. He was serious and focused on not being affected by the outside world. “It’s time for Old Li to lay low. He has wanted to do something great all his life. Being ambitious is a good thing, but it’s also bad for his ambition.”

The white chess piece had no regrets, and there was no turning back. Life was like a chess game, and people were chess pieces. If every move was right, they would definitely be the winner. If one mistake was made, everything would be wrong…

The black chess piece in the old man’s hand didn’t land immediately. Instead, he weighed it in his hand and thought about where it should land. He slowly moved the chess piece in his palm and finally placed it on the chessboard.

After placing his chess piece, the old man said slowly, “Old Li has a strong personality and a strong family background. His personality has always been obstinate, and he can’t tolerate others disobeying him. He’s a warlord from a strong family and is used to dominating the scene. His ambitions have been nurtured since he was young. It’s not wrong to say that he has been making mistakes his entire life.

“But in his eyes, he’s not wrong.

“From birth to old age, a person like him will never think that what they’re doing is wrong. I think that such a life is perfect. He can live a life he likes.”

Old Master Fu, who was open-minded by nature, never evaluated other people’s lives easily. If you had never participated in other people’s lives, what right did you have to evaluate them?

Those who liked to point fingers at other people’s lives and boast about their intelligence were often failures in life. They always summarized other people’s lives. When had they ever been responsible for their own lives?

Without participation, there was no right to speak. Unfortunately, not everyone understood this principle.

Grandpa Xia was silent for a while. Then, he nodded lightly. “You’re a clear-minded person. My father understood you. The first time you met, he knew that you were open-minded and wouldn’t break easily.”

Hence, although the old man’s life was bumpy, he still maintained his pure heart and continued to serve the country.

“There’s only you and me today. Tell me the truth. Do you really have no regrets?” Grandpa Xia asked his old friend with a serious smile.

Old Master Fu shook his head and laughed loudly. “Old man, are you trying to trick me? Hahaha, I have no regrets. It’s only been a few decades. Regret is something that needs to be looked back on and remembered. It’s a waste of my precious time.

“I like to move forward. I don’t like to turn back, and I don’t like to waste time. Regret? What’s there to regret? How many of my peers died young in my generation? How many of my peers lived harder lives than me?

“I’m still alive, and I have a goal. How could I regret it?”

“Old Li was obstinate his entire life and lived his own life. Although he was criticized, he never regretted it.

Indeed, if Old Master Li had regretted it, this wouldn’t have happened.

The two elders stopped discussing other people. The topic returned to the chess game. They thought about the chess game and made their move. Every step was carefully thought out.

The Li family was at the end of their rope. They would see if the pillar of the family could survive. If he was lucky enough to survive, the family could last for a few more years. If they couldn’t, then it was about time.

As for the wife who started out as a mistress, the reputable families in the capital city didn’t think much of her.
