Soon, Du Biao's next words cleared up Qu Tong's confusion.
"If you want to save the Crown Princess Consort and this little thing, come in yourself."
Deliberately, Du Biao aimed the camera at Niannian, and for effect, he pinched Niannian's face with his rough, dirty hands, pushing the Crown Princess Consort to the ground when she tried to protect Niannian.
Niannian, however, was resilient. She let her face be pinched red, tears welled up in her eyes without a sound, just hugging her arms and trembling as she crouched there.
Du Biao seemed to find it boring, roughly flung Niannian's face aside, and turned the camera back to himself.
Though not visible on camera, a solid sound of hitting the ground could be heard, still without any cries.
Outside Commerce Tower, the Crown Prince watched his wife and daughter suffer, his heart nearly breaking, his hands under his sleeves clenched and relaxed repeatedly, his gaze towards Qu Tong undecided.
