The rest of the family also dared not plead mercy; even the children from the eldest branch felt uneasy but pretended not to see and silently returned to their rooms.
The lights in the Wang Family's home were extinguished one by one, plunging it into darkness. Under the moonlight, Wang Yongping knelt alone in the courtyard, his thoughts unknown to anyone.

It was Jinhua who secretly told Wang Yongzhu, "Old cousin, I heard early in the morning that Second Brother and Jinguan were discussing going to town since Granny couldn't make it; they wanted to settle the score with Li Jinzhi."
Wang Yongzhu furrowed her brows. This matter could be big or small, and if the He Family caught the two boys, given Li Jinzhi's vicious temperament, it was unlikely the boys would fare well.
