Chapter 705: 190: Shocking Change_1
In the living room, the elderly Madam Shangguan was holding fireworks, preparing to go outside and set them off with everyone else.
Upon hearing the news, the fireworks in her hand dropped to the ground with a âthudâ.
âWhat happened?â Madam Shangguan asked.
Shangguan Xi was crying, not knowing how to speak.
From her youth to adulthood, she had never encountered such a situation.
âWhat on earth happened?â Madam Shangguanâs face turned pale with urgency.
The more anxious she felt, the harder it was to talk. It felt like something was stuck in her throat.
âSister Xiaoxi, donât panic, take your time.â Ni Yang walked over to Shangguan Xi, holding her hand and comforting her in a low voice.
Thereâs an acupoint on the hand called the Laogong Acupoint. When someone is highly stressed, lightly pressing the Laogong Acupoint can relieve stress and calm the mind.
The place that Ni Yang was pressing was exactly the Laogong Acupoint.
Gradually calming down, Shangguan Xi said, âGrandma, Aunt had an accident!â
âWhat happened to her?â old Madam Shangguan asked urgently.
âShe⊠sheâs threatening to jump off a building with Zijun and ZiqingâŠâ
âWhat?!â Shangguan Dehui and Ni Cuihua happened to walk in from outside at that moment, their smiles froze on their faces, as if their blood was running in reverse.
Madam Shangguan couldnât catch her breath and almost fainted, luckily, Ni Yang caught her in time.
âQuickâŠquick! Letâs get to Furongâs house!â
The Shangguan Familyâs home was only five minutes away from the Zhao Familyâs, but for the people in the car, those five minutes felt longer than fifty minutes, five hours, even five years.
Madam Shangguan cried, âWhen I visited last time, I noticed that something was wrong with that child. She told me many things, told me to take care of my health, not to eat sweets, to take my heart medication on time. I shouldâve realized it earlier! I shouldâve!â
Madam Shangguan originally thought that Shangguan Furong was just maturing.
She never dreamed that Shangguan Furong could do such a foolish thing.
âMother, please calm down,â Ni Cuihua comforted, âFurong will be okay. She will be, I am sure of it.â
Before long, the car stopped in front of the Zhao Familyâs villa.
The butler immediately came out to welcome them, âMadam, Sir, youâre here! The Mistress and Master are upstairs. Please follow me.â
âWhat on earth happened?â asked Shangguan Dehui, his face cold.
Although Shangguan Furong was domineering and strong-willed, she would never seek death so easily, especially not with two children involved.
The butler heaved a sigh.
He was at a loss as to how to explain the situation to Shangguan Dehui.
âPlease go up and try to reason with the Madam. The young master and Miss, they are innocent. They are still just children.â
Madam Shangguan had cried herself weak and collapsed helplessly into Ni Yangâs arms, âWhat sin have I committed that I am being punished by the Heavens like this!â
The Zhaoâs villa was like a palace with ten floors in total.
Shangguan Furong and the two children were sitting on the open-air balcony on the top floor.
Zhao Shen and old lady Zhao stood nearby.
The elderly Mrs. Zhao tried to hold back her tears, âFurong, take the children and come down. Letâs talk things over, donât do anything foolish, okay?â
Zhao Shen took a tentative step forward, âFurong, come down. As long as you come down, I promise anything! We wonât divorce! Is that alright?â
âDonât come any closer!â Shangguan Furong moved closer to the edge of the balcony with the children.
âOkay, okay, I wonât come closer. Just, donât do anything rash! Donât be rash!â Zhao Shen took a step back.
He never thought things would come to this.
He didnât imagine that when Shangguan Furong said she wanted a divorce after the New Year, she meant to take their two children and die.
After carrying a pregnancy for ten months and giving birth.
How could she bear to?
How could she bear to choose death for the two children!
Just then, Shangguan Furong looked towards the top floor exit, her eyes lit up, âMom, Brother, Sister-in-law, youâre here.â
âFurong!â Ni Cuihua covered her mouth in terror.
âFurong! Furong!â Madam Shangguan cried as she lunged forward, âFurong, what are you doing?â
âMom, donât come over!â Shangguan Furong moved back again with the children.
There were no railings behind them. If they moved any further, she and the children would fall off.
Forty meters from the tenth floor.
If they were to fall, the consequences would be unimaginable.
âGrandma, stay calm and stay back,â Ni Yang pulled Madam Shangguan back.
Old lady Zhao saw the Shangguanâs had arrived, and as if seeing a lifeline, pleaded, âElder sister, youâre finally here! Help me reason with Furong, donât let her do anything foolish!â
Zhao Shen said, âMom! Brother! Help me reason with Furong! As long as she doesnât do anything foolish, I can agree to anything she asks for!â
