No one could tell how the stubborn Elder Nangong truly felt during the entire fiasco, but his every move was indeed selfish and vengeful.
Now, whenever Little Eggshell saw the old man, she automatically hid in her room in fear. It seemed, the incident last time had truly traumatized her. Moreover, she had roughly understood the cause of her father's near-death experience, so, she wanted to hide from the old man as much as she could.
Elder Nangong accepted the fact that he would probably spend the rest of his life on his own, so he did not expect too much from Little Eggshell and Su Youran.
After all, he was simply focused on the past and not on the future.
But, this persistence was purely to avenge his 20 odd years in prison.
Was he ruthless?
This was beyond doubt.
Then, was he pitiful?
If one thought about it, he was indeed pitiful.
