The guards from that day came in.
Upon entering the room, the guard felt a sense of unease and a sense of foreboding as he sensed the oppressive and somber atmosphere.
"When the young master of the Zhou family came to visit that day, you were the one guarding the side gate, weren't you?"
"Yes, sir."
"Now, tell me every single detail of what happened that day, without missing a single word or missing a single detail! Including his expression and tone!" Lord Wang asked, clenching his fist.
The guards dared not conceal the truth.
He immediately recounted the details of Zhou Cheng's visit that day, word for word.
In particular, the words Zhou Cheng uttered as he left through the side door with a cold smile were vividly described by the guard: "After hearing what I said, Young Master Zhou said..."
“The Wang family has high standards; it’s no longer a privileged second-generation rich kid like me who is about to fall from power.”
"In that case..."
"These medicines that can treat the epidemic are not worth sending."
"From this day forward, the Zhou family and the Wang family will have no further dealings... Master, that's all." After saying this, Young Master Zhou got into his carriage and left.
Medicines to treat the epidemic...
Treating the epidemic...
Thump thump thump!!
The Wang couple felt a throbbing pain in their temples, dizziness, and a wave of pain coursing through every nerve in their bodies. They clutched their chests and took deep breaths, then exhaled sharply.
For a moment, Lord Wang felt as if he had lost all five senses.
His vision went black and he heard a ringing in his ears.
He had lived for decades, and had never felt such regret or grief in his life.
Standing aside seeking confirmation, Fang Daren was shocked and murmured in understanding, "It really was sent by Zhou Cheng."
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
As Lord Wang pondered, he suddenly burst into a trembling, broken laugh. He looked at his hands and then slapped himself hard across the face: "Hahaha... I resent the injustice of Heaven!"
"They finally gave me a precious son, but they took him back in less than four months."
"But in the end, God told me that it was me, that I killed him with my own hands."
"Oh my god! What have I done...?"
“My son is still so young, and he just celebrated his 100th day not long ago. I actually refused the life-saving medicine that was personally delivered to my door, just because I was afraid of having any connection with the Zhou family.”
Lord Wang pounded his chest hard.
Only physical pain can relieve the agonizing self-blame and guilt that pierces the heart.
if,
If he hadn't listened to his wife that day, and hadn't thought about protecting himself.
Instead, out of consideration for the relationship between the two families, they welcomed Zhou Cheng into the house. Would that mean his only son wouldn't die?
"You shameless woman!"
It's all your fault!
Lord Wang stood up heartbrokenly, kicked Madam Wang, who was also crying with regret, to the ground, and slapped her several times: "If you hadn't kept telling me that Zhou Cheng would definitely have come to our door seeking protection."
"He definitely wants to ask me to plead for Zhou Zhenguang in the main hall."
"If you hadn't been afraid of implicating the Wang family, my son wouldn't have died!"
The entire palace was filled with heart-wrenching cries.
If we give the Wang family another chance.
They definitely won't drive Zhou Cheng away again!
They will definitely welcome Zhou Cheng into the manor, even if he needs their help... What is there to fear if it involves the family's only son?
But everything is gone...
