Seventeen

Grhh. Qina must stop provoking Fu Heng, if not he liked her way too much.

As Fu Shao and I sat beside each other, while Fu Heng sat beside Qina. Now I wasn't sure that was the best decision.

But I glanced at Fu Shao, but his cautious gaze rested on his brother and my sister.

Then Vivian aunt came in, serving roast lamb, rosemary potatoes and green beans. We ate in silence for a while until Qina couldn't keep her tongue anymore.

"Why did you crush that guy's throat?"

I put my fork down, expecting Fu Shao to explode but he only leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms over his chest.

Qina huffed.

"Relax. We are family right. So it can't be that big of a secret. You got your nickname for it."

Fu Heng grinned.

"The great Lion is a nice name."

Fu Shao shook his head.

"Shut up! I hate that name."

"You earned it anyway," Fu Heng said.

"Now tell them the story or else I will them instead."

Yeah.I'd been curious about it for a while. Nobody from the W clans wanted to give me details and I hadn't dared to ask Xu yet.

"I was 17 at that time," He began.

"Our father has many brothers and sisters, and one of my cousins climbed the ranks in the clan's hierarchy alongside me. But he was several years older and wanted to become the head master . He knew my father would choose me, then he invited me to his house and tried to stab me in the back. The knife only graced my arm and when I got the chance I wrapped my hands around his throat and choked him."

"Why didn't you shoot him?" Qina asked.

"He was family and it used to be tradition that we put down our weapons when we entered the home of a family member," He said coldly.

"Now not anymore, of course."

"The betrayal made Fu Shao so angry, that's why my big brother completely crushed our cousin's throat. He choked on his blood because the bones in his neck cut through his artery. So that's quite was a rages and anger during that time. So I'd never seen anything like it again after that."

Fu Heng told as he looked like a kid on New years morning. But that was more than a little disturbing.
