“Grandpa, don’t go! Please save me! The police station is really not fit for humans! I’ve only had one meal since yesterday! I’ve been beaten by the prisoners in the detention center, and there are mosquitoes everywhere. You know that I’m especially susceptible to mosquito bites and that my skin is very sensitive. I haven’t slept since yesterday. I won’t be able to take it if this continues! Grandpa, please! Even if I’m not the Wu family’s biological child, you’ve raised me for 23 years. Don’t you feel even a little bit sorry for me? Any owner that sees the dog they raised getting bullied would feel sorry for it. How can you be so cold-hearted?”

Wu Jingmin was a doctor, so she was naturally relatively levelheaded. However, when she thought about how she and the people she loved would never be able to bear a child in this life, the anger in her heart could not be concealed. She turned around and sneered. “That’s right. It’s good that you know that you’re someone we raised even though you lack our blood. But to us, you’re not a dog—you’re worse than one. Back then, we were willing to take you in. Now, after what you’ve done, we’re no longer willing to accept you as part of our family. You’re just scum! So, Wu Zongxu, you might as well stay in the police station and spend the rest of your life regretting everything you’ve done!”

“Jingmin, let’s go. Why are you wasting your breath on him?” Elder Wu called out. Wu Jingmin snorted coldly and quickly followed.

Wu Zongxu was completely stunned by Wu Jingmin’s words.

He never thought that the Wu family would one day say such vile and vicious words to him.

Even though he had always thought that the Wu family was vile, he felt like they were all sanctimonious hypocrites who were too nice to use words as a weapon. However, he was stunned for a considerable time after hearing Wu Jingmin’s words.

When he regained his senses, Wu Zongxu’s eyes reflected fierce hatred. His intense gaze seethed with rage.

He knew that the Wu family had adopted him, but they had never truly treated him like family. Fortunately, he had a backup plan to get someone to definitely come and save him. Otherwise, he would be sent to prison over a trivial matter.

In the car, Sze Lingyun was completely speechless.

Wu Zongxu was an orphan. The Wu family had treated him so well, yet he was still unsatisfied. He compared himself to Wu Zongyang and began drugging his family from a young age.

The Wu family had raised him, loved him, and given him the best life they could provide. Instead of being grateful, Wu Zongxu’s heart seemed to only get increasingly dissatisfied as his thinking grew more distorted.

She thought about herself. Even though she was the biological daughter of her parents, they still preferred their sons over their daughters. Their attitude toward her, to some extent, could be deemed ‘harsh’.

Therefore, the heavens were still very unfair sometimes.

“I don’t understand. Why didn’t Uncle Wu bear a child himself back then? Why did he decide to adopt one instead?”

“Sigh, it’s all my fault. I didn’t protect him well.” Elder Wu sighed and answered, “At the time, Jingzhong had just entered the main altar. Due to his impressive abilities, he could have been said to have risen from the ashes. The enemies of the Wu family were unwilling to see the Wu family continue to grow stronger, so they plotted against Jingzhong on the mountain road. They knocked his car off the cliff. Fortunately, he was skilled enough to escape out of the car before it hit the ground and exploded. He still did fall off the cliff and was injured severely by the explosion’s shockwave.

“When we found him the next day, he was in a cave.”
