Beside her, Du Xiaolan, grief-stricken over her daughter's drowning, felt an unspeakable rage bottled inside. Suddenly, she felt a sharp kick from the baby in her womb, followed by a greater sense of discomfort. Nausea welled up, and she opened her mouth to vomit blood, startling Zi Hong. "Madam, Madam! Are you alright? Did something disturb the fetus? Please sit down, I will check on you."
But, Zi Hong's hand had just touched Du Xiaolan's wrist when Du Xiaolan forcefully pushed her away, leading to an unexpected accident. Zi Hong fell heavily to the ground, her head scraping against the floor, blood streaming from the wound.
Along with Zi Hong's fall, went her beloved dwarf pine bonsai.
The porcelain pieces from the bonsai shattered upon impact, stained with blood.
"Madam, how can you push Zi Hong? What did Zi Hong do wrong? She was just kindly checking your pulse!"
Feng Tianyong quickly rushed forward to lift Zi Hong up, angrily shouting at Du Xiaolan!
