Since childhood, Wu Jinhai was taught by his father to prioritize innocent people. If they were in battle and innocent people were in danger, then they had to save those people first before fighting their enemies.
That was what Wu Shun had always said since Wu Jinhai was little, and perhaps that was the reason why he was quite disturbed when Fu Zhan said that he would kill the hostages if he refused to marry his daughter.
Luckily, Fu Zhan didn't immediately do as he said even though Wu Jinhai kept saying that he didn't want to marry his daughter. Instead, the fat man said that he would give Wu Jinhai more time to consider, and for now, Wu Jinhai and Wu Shun could rest in the palace until they could come to a decision. However, Fu Zhan was still not a benevolent person, and he would only wait until dawn tomorrow before he decided how he should end the lives of the hostages.
