"I told you there was a trap."
"Even if there was a trap, it was my fault, right? It was me throwing myself into it. I failed to carry out the task he gave me today. So, what should I do now?" Zhang Cuihua asked nervously.
At this time, Liu Zheng pressed down on Zhang Cuihua's shoulders.
"You must explain everything to me today. Only then will I be able to figure out a way to help you."
Zhang Cuihua was also tense since she hadn't completed her task today. If she returned home without it done, not only would she not get any money, but her father-in-law, Liu Baishun, was likely to beat her as well.
Fear flooded Zhang Cuihua's heart as she remembered the various abuses her father-in-law had inflicted on her.
Her face, which had just relaxed in comfort, was now stricken with panic.
Seeing her state, Liu Zheng hurriedly urged, "Come on, spill it. If you don't, and your father-in-law does show up, you'll find yourself beyond explanation."
