Tang Zen stood in her room, stuck in a daze. She did not expect that Hao Ren, the child who always handled everything silently talked to her in this manner. For the first time, she sensed how deep were the wounds on his heart.
Old Man Hao came inside the room, and sensed something was off. He asked, "Madam, is everything alright?"
Tang Zen turned around to look at him and said, "Call you daughter, she needs to give me some answers."
Old Man Hao was surprised and asked, "Did something happen?"
Tang Zen told him everything and Old Man Hao said, "I did not think she would make her take an oath."
Tang Zen shook her head and said, "It is not an oath, it is something else."
Old Man Hao furrowed his brows and said, "I will summon her."
Tang Zen nodded, and just when the Old Man was about to leave, Empress Hao asked, "Old Man, do you think we have been a bit too hard on Ren?"
