Having arrived in the living room on the first floor, Hu Zhonglian did not reach for a knife.
Instead, he went straight to the coffee table and, picking up the cup of coffee that had turned cold, hurled it toward the sunflowers in the vase.
A loud crash startled Bai Xiujuan into a piercing scream.
After smashing the vase, Hu Zhonglian turned around and pointed at the three people in the living room, saying, "You all ganged up to scheme against me, a lawyer, a nanny, a wife who supposedly cares whether I eat well or sleep well. You really pulled it off."
Before Ji Meishu could say anything, Bai Xiujuan threw herself at Hu Zhonglian's feet, pleading, "Master, please forgive the madam just this once. It's only this time that you caught us; the madam has always been innocent before..."
"Innocent?"
As Hu Zhonglian repeated these words, his expression grew ferocious.
