Hahaha!
I'm wrong!
We twelve were wrong!
Your Majesty is mistaken!
We were all wrong!
wrong!
You're all wrong!!
Iron Hand's voice was initially low, but it grew louder and louder as he spoke, emitting screams of despair.
The roar contained regret, guilt, hatred, self-blame, and an overwhelming sense of shame...
[Ding! The host has caused Iron Hand to collapse, resulting in a double critical hit. The host has gained 3,000 Collapse Points!]
"Ya Yu, I'm sorry, Lord Sheng, I'm so sorry, please... please kill me!"
Iron Hand couldn't stop crying.
He knelt down abruptly before Wuqing, drew a dagger, and handed it to him.
With trembling hands, he took the dagger.
Suddenly raised...
But then, looking at Iron Hand's familiar face...
Memories of being cared for by Iron Hand like an older brother flooded her mind, making her unable to lower her raised hand.
"You...you can leave!"
I... I never want to see you again!
He ruthlessly dropped the dagger and turned his face away.
Tears streamed down her face.
At that moment, she felt both joy and sorrow.
To her delight, her father, Sheng Dingtian, was finally exonerated and found not to be a traitor.
Tragically, she couldn't bring herself to kill the man who had murdered her entire family, making him feel ashamed to face his parents and relatives in the afterlife.
"You...you're not going to kill me?!"
Haven't you always wanted to find the person who wiped out your family?
Why didn't you kill me...?
Iron Hand was somewhat incredulous, then looked deeply at Ruthless, his eyes filled with the boundless tenderness of a brother for his sister, and said softly, "From now on, take good care of yourself. I won't make things difficult for you, nor will I let you lose face in front of your parents and relatives."
Done.
He picked up the dagger and stabbed it directly into his heart!
"Brother Iron Hand!"
Ruthless shock, grief, but it was too late to stop it.
Emergency moment.
A teacup suddenly flew out, knocking the dagger out of Iron Hand's hand.
It was Chen Yan who made the move.
At this moment, Chen Yan's expression was not good. He frowned and said, "Blood cannot be seen in my fortune-telling shop. Anyone who wants to commit suicide, get out of here."
Although you made a mistake, the biggest mastermind behind this whole affair is Cai Xiang.
If you were a real man, you should have killed Cai Xiang.
Instead of suicide!
Iron Hand was taken aback.
The deathly look in his eyes faded, and he bowed to Chen Yan with clasped hands, saying, "Thank you, Master Chen, for enlightening me."
After saying that, he gave Wuqing one last deep look and strode away.
Watching his departing figure, Wuqing was overwhelmed with emotions and couldn't help but shed tears.
"Hey, this isn't a mortuary. If you want to cry, go outside. Don't disturb my business."
Chen Yan had a headache as he looked at the weeping Wuqing.
I remember Wuqing as a very strong woman, so why is she crying all the time today?
"Is she so sad that she can't even cry? You really are..."
Wanwan rolled her eyes at Chen Yan, walked over to Wuqing's side, and patted her shoulder to comfort her.
The tears that Wuqing had been holding back, fell again like pearls from a broken string, thanks to Wanwan's comforting words.
Wanwan let her head rest against her and gently comforted her.
Looking at this harmonious scene.
Chen Yan could hardly believe it.
Wanwan, that little devil, has really changed a lot. She can even comfort people now. I doubt many people would believe it if I told them.
"Hmm, I must say, the transformed Wanwan seems like a pretty good candidate to marry."
Chen Yan stroked his chin, thinking to himself.
Chapter Fifty-Seven: Healing!
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before?"
Noticing Chen Yan staring at her, Wanwan blushed slightly and scolded him playfully.
At this time.
The ruthless man who had been crying against her stopped sobbing and looked at Wanwan, whose body was soaked with his tears, and looked slightly embarrassed.
Wanwan waved her hand dismissively.
"Thank you, young lady. Thank you, Master Chen. I'll take my leave now."
Wuqing bowed to Chen Yan and Wanwan, then pushed his wheelchair away.
But then I felt lost again.
Where should I go next?
Should we go back to the Six Doors?
The emperor was one of the murderers who caused the extermination of her entire family. Although it was an accidental killing, she did not want to go back to serve the emperor.
Going back to the old house?
The old house has fallen into disrepair and is now a desolate wasteland.
Thinking about this, she suddenly felt incredibly lonely and lost.
The world is vast, but at this moment she couldn't find anywhere to go...
"If you can't find anywhere to go, you can stay and work at the fortune teller's shop."
At this time.
Chen Yan's voice reached her ears.
Unexpectedly surprised, Wuqing turned her head abruptly: "Master Chen, are you telling the truth?"
Chen Yan nodded.
He gently rubbed the head of Ah Huang, the dog lying beside him.
He laughed and said, "You have the talent to read minds and can communicate with animals, making you the best candidate to walk Ah Huang. I don't have that much free time, and Wanwan is lazy too. You can stay here and your daily tasks are to walk the dog and assist Wanwan with her tasks."
Are you suggesting I, a dignified Golden-Clad Constable, walk my dog?
Wuqing's lips twitched slightly; for a moment, she couldn't even discern her own emotions.
After thinking about it, he realized he had nowhere else to go and was about to nod in agreement.
Chen Yan added, "However, let me make it clear beforehand that you will not receive a salary for working at the fortune-telling shop."
No salary?
Heartless and speechless.
How could a dignified constable be reduced to walking dogs and not even receiving a salary?
Wanwan couldn't stand it anymore either.
He tugged at Chen Yan's sleeve, about to say something.
Chen Yan then said, "Although you don't receive a salary, I can heal your legs. Consider this your salary."
Wuqing was stunned for a moment, then was both surprised and delighted.
Excitedly, he asked, "Master Chen, you said you could cure my legs, is that true?"
