He took a deep breath and walked into the room.
The moment he walked in, his eldest uncle sprang to his feet and stared at him, asking, "So, what will it take for Lu Nanze to reconcile?"
Looking into his eldest uncle's eyes, Mr. Song was at a loss for words.
Trembling with fear, he said, "I- he said, unless his mother comes back to life."
The moment he said this, his eldest uncle frowned. He immediately understood what was going on.
Mr. Song thought that his eldest uncle would scold him, but to his surprise, when he snapped out of his daze, he only patted his shoulder amiably and said, "Alright, it's been hard on you."
Then he walked away.
Mr. Song felt even more guilty. Was his eldest uncle … going to protect him?
In the middle of the night.
Mr. Song couldn't sleep. The events of the day kept replaying in his mind, making him feel like he had committed a heinous crime.
He stood up, put on his clothes and took a deep breath. Then he went to the top floor.
Because they had a large family, the building was built higher than the average villa. There were seven stories in total.
There was a garden on the top floor.
He stood there, holding onto the railing and gazing into the distance.
As he was gazing, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.
He turned around and saw his eldest uncle standing behind him. Immediately, he said guiltily, "Eldest Uncle, you can't sleep either?"
Was it because he was worried about the family and couldn't sleep?
At this thought, he felt even more guilty.
Eldest Uncle nodded and said, "That's right."
Then he looked up and said, "I've been thinking about it over and over again. You're the one who started this. If we want Lu Nanze to lessen his hatred towards us, then the only way is —"
"Is what?"
"Go to hell."
Mr. Song was stunned. Before he could react, he felt a strong force pushing him down from the top floor. …

The next day, when Qiao Yiyi woke up, she saw the news of Mr. Song's suicide.
She paused for a moment and frowned as she read the bloody scene of Mr. Song's death.
She couldn't help asking the man, "Did he really commit suicide?"
That distance … that posture … it didn't seem like it.
Lu Nanze reached out and put his arm around her waist. Then he said, "Whether it was suicide or not, it has nothing to do with us. As long as we didn't kill him, that's all."
Qiao Yiyi heard Lu Nanze say, "We, we …"
Tears welled up in her eyes.
But now that Mr. Song was dead, what about the last murderer, the person from the Zhao family?
Qiao Yiyi sighed.
She also didn't want Lu Nanze to use the Lu family's remaining assets to fight to the death with others.
But right now, she couldn't bring herself to say those words.
Because that was how he felt about her.
He put his arm around her waist and sighed, saying, "Don't think too much. I've scared the Song family to this extent. What do you think the Zhao family will do?"
What would happen to the Zhao family?
The Zhao family must be terrified as well.
"That's right. From now on, I don't even need to do anything. Don't worry, I won't squander all of the Lu Clan's assets. I still need to feed you, Kaka … that little dung beetle!"
"Pu!"
Qiao Yiyi couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard the man gnashing his teeth at the mention of Kaka.
Looking at her laughter, Lu Nanze's lips turned up into a smile as well.
