Wang Daniu left the Wang family villa and returned to Shen Zongyuan's home, only to find the house lit up brightly.
It was so late; why hadn't Shen Zongyuan and his wife gone to bed?
Wang Daniu hurried inside and immediately felt an oppressive and heavy atmosphere.
Shen Zongyuan and his wife were sitting in the living room, but their expressions were devoid of any smile, as if troubled by something unspeakable.
As Wang Daniu entered the room, he asked with concern, "Big brother, sister-in-law, why aren't you sleeping? What happened? Why do you look so unhappy?"
A hesitant look appeared on Shen Zongyuan's face, accompanied by a bitter smile.
"Big brother, if there's something wrong, just tell me. I'm not an outsider, and maybe I can help," Wang Daniu said earnestly.
Shen Zongyuan thought for a moment, then spoke, "They just made a trip back to the Shen family and found that my father is old and frail, I'm afraid he doesn't have much longer to live."
