Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 110 - : The Life Saver
Chapter 110 -110: The Life Saver
“Mother, Mother, I have evidence,” the fool said as he fumbled out a portrait from his clothes and handed it to Madam Xie.
“Who are you calling ‘Mother’?” Xuexue snapped furiously, glaring at him with eyes that wished they could sew his mouth shut to stop his reckless talking.
“Haha…! My wife’s mother is my mother,” the fool laughed, his teeth gleaming brightly.
Madam Xie was startled by his address, the man before her was her younger daughter’s lifesaver; she couldn’t very well lose her temper. She casually took the portrait, opened it, and was stunned to see it was a portrait of Xuexue, “Big brother, how do you have a portrait of my daughter?”
“My wife’s portrait naturally stays with me,” the fool said firmly, as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
Madam Xie: “This…”
“Mother, don’t ask anymore, can you expect to get an answer from looking at him?” Xuexue expressed, already feeling too exasperated to argue further.
Chuner had cried her heart out by now, her mood slowly settling as her tears gradually ceased.
Just as Madam Xie was about to say more, a strong man appeared, leading the horse that had earlier ran wildly. He purposefully approached them to apologize, “Little girl, I’m sorry, my horse frightened you earlier.”
“You make it sound so light? My sister almost lost her life just now,” Xuexue’s temper flared upon seeing him, knowing that without the fool with them today, Chuner might have been dead.
“I’m really sorry, miss, I’m just a clerk from the cloth shop up ahead. This horse is usually very gentle. It just happened today, during unloading, it started acting wildly out of nowhere,” the strong man said, somewhat breathlessly, clearly feeling guilty for not managing his horse, which almost resulted in a fatal accident. Besides losing his job, he might have also faced legal repercussions.
Seeing the distressed look on the clerk’s face, and considering Chuner was unharmed, Madam Xie said, “You need to be more careful next time, you might not always be so lucky.”
“Yes, yes, I will definitely be more careful in the future,” seeing that Madam Xie wasn’t pursuing his responsibility, the strong man was relieved, thanked her repeatedly, and then led the horse away.
“Mother, how can you let him go so easily? He almost killed Chuner,” Xuexue recalled the incident, still shaken.
“Let it be, Chuner is fine after all,” she replied.
“He should at least compensate somehow, so he remembers this lesson,” Xuexue protested.
“We all have our hardships, Xuexue, we should be merciful when others are at fault,” Madam Xie counseled.
Regarding Madam Xie’s view, Xuexue disagreed. In her last life, she had followed Madam Xie’s teaching of treating others kindly, but why did it end so tragically? Therefore, in this life, she intended to defy fate.
“Wife, wife, let’s go home,” the fool’s silly voice timely chimed in.
It was then that Madam Xie remembered that he was still there. She turned her head and scrutinized him seriously, noting his behavior was indeed different from others. She asked, “Big brother, where do you live?”
“Where my wife lives, that’s where I live.”
The man’s nonstop referral to Xuexue as his wife could potentially ruin her daughter’s reputation. Madam Xie’s expression grew somber, but considering he was Chuner’s rescuer, she refrained from scolding him and instead asked, “Then what is your name?”

“Name?” The fool looked down and thought hard for a while before looking up with a troubled expression, “I don’t know.”
“You don’t even know your own name?”
“Hmm, I can’t recall,” the fool said with a pained face.
“What are we to do now?” The man was, after all, her daughter’s lifesaver, but now he couldn’t even remember his own name or where he lived. Madam Xie couldn’t help but worry for him.
Xuexue lifted her gaze and noticed a patch of dried blood clung to his hair at the back of his head.
