Xuexue and Big Bull quietly slipped away amidst the chaos...
"Big Bull, do you think those two might have actually died from the fall?" Xuexue tugged at Big Bull's sleeve, drew close, and asked in a low voice.
"No, I clearly heard their steady breathing just now; they just fainted," Big Bull scratched his head and said naively, "Don't worry, wife, even if I had really killed them and had to pay with my life, I'm here for you!"
Moved by Big Bull's earnestness, Xuexue felt a surge of emotion. In her past life and now, no man had ever treated her so kindly.
In her previous life, Zhang Ruixuan, that scoundrel, had feigned affection to secure his position as Crown Prince, offering her nothing more than jewelry and treasures. And she, naive and foolish in that lifetime, had been so deceived that it cost her life and even implicated her young daughter.
Recalling her tragic death, Xuexue could not help but feel a wave of sadness.
"What's wrong, wife?"
