The old woman was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe. In her eyes, Cheng Muyun and Xu Zhuohua were like ghosts who would steal souls, making her shudder.
Xu Zhuohua continued, "I'm asking you, do you know about Wenjun's affair with the old man?" Her eyes were fixed on the old woman, as if trying to see the truth in her eyes.
The old woman's eyes widened suddenly. When she spoke to Cheng Wenjun, she had clearly warned her not to tell anyone about these things.
However, she was now cornered. She knew that if she didn't speak, she would die, but if she did, there might be a glimmer of hope.
She pursed her lips, her obese body twitching, making her look exceptionally pitiful.
"I...I know." Her voice was so low it was almost inaudible, but every word struck Cheng Muyun and Xu Zhuohua's hearts like a heavy hammer.
Xu Zhuohua pressed on, "What did you say to Wenjun today?"
The old woman pursed her lips. She knew that if she spoke, Cheng Muyun would be blinded by rage and kill her, but if she didn't speak now, she would die anyway.
She was doomed either way, so she gritted her teeth.
Seeing her hesitate, Xu Zhuohua tightened his grip on her fingers and shouted, "Speak!"

Xu Zhuohua's anger was no less than Cheng Muyun's. She felt extremely frustrated, as if a fire was burning inside her, making it impossible for her to calm down.
"If you don't tell me, I'll keep fighting."
She raised her hand again, ready to continue.
The old woman shrank back in fear, tears welling in her eyes. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and begged, "I'll talk, I'll talk!"
"Speak quickly!" Xu Zhuohua's voice was urgent, as if she couldn't wait to hear the answer.
The old woman's voice trembled as she spoke haltingly, "Master told me to go to Miss and talk about a woman's chastity and the sexual relations between husband and wife. Miss never knew these things before. Master told me to tell Miss that she is shameless, has no chastity, seduced Grandfather, and disregards human ethics..."
Before the old woman could finish speaking, Cheng Muyun's fist slammed down hard.
