Sang Jue and Jiang Ke were alike in so many ways.
They were obsessive and tyrannical, stopping at nothing to obtain their desires.
Perhaps that was why Sang Jue was willing to help.
He knew that he and Jiang Ke were the same kind of people.
How infuriating!
He Ying slammed his hand on the table, clenching his fists tightly, "Go check."
He needed to make Sang Jue talk.
He could wait no longer.

Sang Jue waited outside the delivery room.
Originally, he had been inside, but the midwife and maids pushed him out.
He wanted to enter, but was stopped by his parents,
"What are you doing in there?"
"A man entering the delivery room is bad luck."
"Do you want something to happen to the mother and child?"
...
These words frightened him.
He could only wait outside anxiously, pacing back and forth, at times clasping his hands in prayer to the heavens,
"People do, heaven watches."
He Ying arrived.
Everyone present knelt down,
Including Sang Jue.
