His wife immediately feigned innocence. "How can you say that about me! I discussed it with him beforehand, but I didn't know he would suddenly back out! Why are you blaming me?"
Zheng Ming snorted coldly. "If you're not to blame, then tell me what we should do now! The treasures might have already been stolen!"
Seeing how furious Zheng Ming was, his wife finally sighed and comforted him. "Darling, let's not worry about whether the treasures have been stolen for now. Ye Qingchen must have been seriously injured protecting them, so our efforts weren't for nothing!"
Her words seemed to console Zheng Ming. He nodded with a grim face. "You're right. That guy probably can't even get out of bed now! Our efforts indeed weren't for nothing!"
As Zheng Ming reassured himself, his wife saw her chance and waved the servants away. "Alright, that's enough. You're dismissed."
