“They drove my car straight off a cliff. I jumped out, but even though I managed to grab onto a few trees to slow down the fall, there was nothing to grab onto for the last 65 feet. I was badly bruised when I fell, and the fall knocked me out.
“I remember clearly that I was burning up all over when I woke up. Your mother was taking care of me and wiping my sweat. She had applied medicine to my wounds, but the aphrodisiac that had already fermented in my body could not be controlled. She saw that I was suffering too much and was afraid that I would die, so she…
“Later, after the drug in my body subsided, before I fainted, I told her that I would definitely marry her. I asked her to stay with me, and I told her that my family would come looking for me soon.
“However, when I woke up, it had already been three days. Your grandfather said that he only saw that I had been drugged, but there was no girl by my side. At that time, I was seriously injured and couldn’t get out of bed, so I drew a portrait of your mother and asked your grandfather to make a copy of it and take it out to look for her.
“When I was discharged from the hospital, I personally went to look for her. I searched Sea District, J District, and Z District, but I still couldn’t find your mother.
“At the time, the family’s salary was not that high, but I still offered a very high reward for her. I promised that useful clues would receive a reward of 100,000 yuan, and if someone actually found her, I would give them a reward of 1,000,000 yuan. I thought that the money would definitely motivate people to find her.
“However, your mother had suddenly appeared by my side like a fairy then mysteriously disappeared from this world.”
When he thought of that woman whose eyes were pure, her temperament like an orchid, and her looks like a painting, Wu Jingzhong’s heart ached.
He did not want to owe anyone anything, but he owed the woman he loved the most in the world his life.
Well, was it was love? After all, he had never interacted with that woman much, so it could not be called love.
He had liked that woman’s appearance and body very much. He never believed that he would fall in love at first sight, but the moment he saw that woman, he knew that he was in love with her. It had not been the drugs talking.
If it had just been appreciation, he would have told the girl that he would reward her with money once he recovered, not offered to marry her. However, that girl was the most pleasant and kind girl he had ever seen, so he had been moved. He had told her that he would marry her. Even before he fainted, he kept muttering to himself, telling the girl not to leave.
However she… She left.
......
Now, 22 years had passed, and she had given birth to such an outstanding daughter for him, yet he could never see her again.
After more than 20 years in his career as an official, he had long become a man who did not show his emotions. However, when he thought of that beautiful portrait-esque girl and how it was very likely that she had been persecuted to death by the Zhou family… he could not suppress the vicious anger in his heart no matter how hard he tried.
Especially when he held his daughter’s hand, thinking about how his daughter, who was supposed to lead a pampered life, had actually been abused her whole childhood, that vicious anger was nearly enough to burn the entire Zhou family to ashes.
After Zhou Menglu and her family were thrown into the detention center, they received orders from Chi Yang that they were to be separated and imprisoned.
