Upon hearing the shouts of her second elder brother and his wife, Xiaoxiao hurried to open the door, as she couldn’t let them disturb everyone in the yard—it was better for fewer people to know about this.
As the couple entered the room and saw the bucket of bloody water, they were dumbfounded. The second brother’s wife called out anxiously, "Younger brother’s wife, what on earth happened here, huh?"
Wang Xiangxiang, who was already weak from losing too much blood, broke down into heavy sobs as she spoke with a voice that was pale and weak, "Xiaoxiao, even if I want to live now, it’s too late. I’m sorry, I’m tired."
After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and slumped over. Xiaoxiao quickly caught her and cried out, "Sister Wang, Sister Wang, you’re not scaring , are you, huh?"
Seeing this, the second brother’s wife imdiately ordered her husband, "Quickly harness the horse cart, we need to rush to the town’s dical clinic."
"Yes, yes!" Yang Gang, the second brother, quickly agreed and frantically left to harness the horse cart.
Inside the house, Xiaoxiao was pressing on the philtrum and constantly shouting, "Sister Wang, you have to hold on, you can’t give up."
Due to the commotion in the house, everyone in the courtyard was alard and couldn’t be held back. They all rushed out of their rooms to see the tragic scene inside Xiaoxiao’s house.
"Younger brother’s wife, this... "
Xiaoxiao’s tears flowed uncontrollably as she cried and spoke, "Father, let’s not ask about this. Pretend you didn’t see anything and don’t tell anyone else."
Old Master Yang, upon seeing this, knew that the suicide attempt by Miss Wang in his house was serious. He admonished everyone to keep their mouths shut about it, forbidding them to tell anyone outside.
Just then, Yang Gang ca in with the horse cart and lifted Wang Xiangxiang to take her outside, with Xiaoxiao following behind, saying as she walked, "Father, you all go back, it’s enough that my second brother, his wife, and I go."
"Yes, quickly go," Old Master Yang agreed, watching the horse cart quickly disappearing into the distance.
"Husband, it won’t turn into sothing terrible, will it?" Yang Ming’s mother started to worry.
"Don’t think nonsense, everyone back inside," Old Master Yang roared, then spoke softly to his guests, "Young Master Han, I am truly sorry for this. I hope you can help keep this a secret, as it is a disgraceful matter, after all."
"Uncle, rest assured, I’m not one to gossip," Han Yongsheng affird.
"That’s good, that’s very good." Old Master Yang then shouted again, "What are you standing around for? Hurry back inside!"
The sudden event had thrown the Yang Family into disarray. After being reminded by Old Master Yang, they slowly returned to their rooms. That night, except for a few children who weren’t woken up, no one in the Yang Family managed to close their eyes, all of them anxious, waiting for Xiaoxiao and the others to return.
Inside Yang Dong’s room
"Young Master, that girl wouldn’t have really died, would she?"
Han Yongsheng lay there in silence, also pondering the situation. If the girl had indeed died, his trip would have been in vain.
Seeing how resolute Yang’s wife was, he knew she was not an easy person to deal with. He had hoped to use the rescue to soften things, but that seed unlikely now. All he could do was pray the girl was all right.
"Young Master, if that girl has truly died, we no longer have a reason to stay here," Ada said, worried.
"She won’t have, stop worrying about it."
"Young Master, what should we do next?"
"Let’s wait and see how things unfold."
He hadn’t expected things to reach this point, nor had he anticipated the girl’s strong-willed nature to choose suicide. He actually admired her for it now, preferring death over a life of compromise.
