Although Shuyin didn't like Lou Zirong, she didn't hate him to the point of killing him. She just tortured him and let him know that she wasn't easy to bully.
Therefore, Lou Zirong only suffered for one day and one night. The next day, his face was much better. Although it was still itchy, it didn't make people go crazy.
However, even though his face was not mad, his heart was.
All of the Lou family's business transactions had been cut off, and all of their capital accounts had been frozen!
The four small families who had followed Lou mingzhen to Jing Rui to speak up for Lou ruofu were even worse off than the Lou family. They went bankrupt overnight and were in debt. Even the children of several families who were studying abroad were directly sent back to China!
The families that had intended to get closer to the Lou family immediately distanced themselves from them. No one would bet on the future of their family and their children.
