The news naturally reached Yuan Zhao, who was having dinner with Rong Ruo at the time.
Today, she cooked for him herself, and Rong Ruo ate a lot, but he still didn't give in.
This is a blatant attempt to take advantage of someone's kindness.
But after he finished eating her food, he still had to remind her:
"Tomorrow is the last day!"
Yuan Zhao: "..."
She actually wanted to take advantage of his good mood and just give up, saying she couldn't think of a solution and that he should just take action.
However, she only thought about it.
Rong Ruo cannot be judged by common sense. If he really takes her life, wouldn't she be wronged?
Seeing her frowning expression, Rong Ruo felt quite comfortable.
Putting everything else aside, the warm jade that Yuan Zhao offered as tribute yesterday was really nice; at least he didn't feel as cold as usual.
That's why he was able to spare her life.
However, seeing her like this, he thought it was quite nice and just took it as a joke.
Rong Ruo was still unaware that his mindset had changed.
You should know that making people laugh is something that would never happen in his life, but now he is actually looking forward to making people laugh.
Hearing the news he had just heard, he glanced at Yuan Zhao:
"You seem to know them quite well."
Yuan Zhao's plan is simple, but it requires him to understand those people.
And clearly, Yuan Zhao knows them very well.
They're testing us again!
Yuan Zhao didn't answer, but could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, casually replying with a few words. Unexpectedly, Rong Ruo asked again:
How long are you planning to stay in this place?
Yuan Zhao glanced at Rong Ruo with surprise, then tentatively said:
"I don't know, after all, I don't even know if I'll survive until tomorrow night."
Rong Ruo gave her a half-smile:
"You're quite clever."
This time, Yuan Zhao didn't speak again, but she wasn't as nervous anymore.
She had a feeling that Rong Ruo wouldn't hold this against her this time.
He wouldn't take Jinzhu's life, much less hers.
Rong Ruo did not continue the topic, but instead said:
"This place is filthy; staying any longer will do you no good."
It was rare to hear such words from him, so Yuan Zhao paused and said:
"I know what I'm doing."
It'll be here soon!
She wouldn't sacrifice her future for the sake of the Yongning Marquis's mansion; she still had a long life ahead of her.
Seeing that she understood, Yuan Zhao didn't say anything more.
Just as the two were talking, Wenfeng came in again to report:
"Miss, I heard that Zhou Shiyuan's servant just went to fetch a doctor."
"oh?"
Yuan Zhao raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Could something have gone wrong with Zhou's father again?
Zhou Shiyuan still had a conscience; he even knew to call a doctor for his father.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard Wenfeng say:
"I heard that the child fell from the artificial hill and was seriously injured."
There was only one child in Zhou Shiyuan's courtyard, Zhou Yujie.
Did he fall off the artificial hill?
Zhou Yujie, who's incredibly cunning, would go play at the artificial mountain?
Just as I was thinking this, I heard Qingzhu say:
"It was Zhou Shiyuan who did it."
"They were locked inside the house when they got the taxi; the whole courtyard could hear it."
Yuan Zhao was startled at first, but then he realized what was happening.
Zhou Shiyuan must have overheard Bai Mianmian's conversation with his father, which is why he took it out on Zhou Yujie.
Regardless of anything else, Zhou Yujie's body was only two years old, yet he was willing to do it.
Zhou Shiyuan is indeed a heartless and ungrateful person. First, it was his own mother, and now it is his own son.
He only has eyes for himself.
Such a person must have been blind in my past life to think he was a good match.
Yuan Zhao gave a mocking laugh.
Lost in her own thoughts, she didn't notice Rong Ruo observing her from the side.
