Wen Xiu didn't dare to imagine what would have happened if her daughter's face had really been ruined.
If she hadn't taken her daughter's story about nearly being caught in the crossfire seriously before, thinking it was an exaggeration, hearing her son say the same thing now sent a wave of fear through her. She detested the Gu family even more, and she could no longer feel any sympathy for the Lin family.
"It's getting late. We need to get to the Gu family's place, so let's talk on the way." Zhang Dazhuang was also furious, but since his daughter was unharmed, his anger took a backseat to the business at hand. He glanced at the sun and reminded everyone, "We have an appointment with the Gu family."
Thinking about what his son had accomplished on this trip, the weight in his heart finally lifted.
"Alright, let's go," Wen Xiu agreed, her voice now filled not only with confidence but also with fighting spirit.
