Master Wang pursed his lips and smiled at everyone. “Someone, bring a stool over. No matter what Miss Liu says, I won’t mind. Before that, I only have one request. I wonder if Miss Liu will agree.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Master Wang.
Master Wang smiled. “If you fail to read my mind later, kowtow to Mr. Zhu in front of everyone and apologize. He should be about the same age as your father. Just treat it as kowtowing to your father and apologizing, okay?”
Zhu Zongyang looked at Liu Sanniang coldly.
Liu Sanniang opened her mouth and said, “I won’t fail.”
Master Wang frowned. This girl was really annoying. If she didn’t admit her mistake later, he would get people to beat her, forcing her to kneel down and apologize.
Master Wang sat down and rolled up his sleeves.
Liu Sanniang reached out and was about to place her hand on Master Wang’s wrist when Chu Yan took out a handkerchief and threw it lightly on Master Wang’s wrist.
Chu Yan’s eyes were dark as ink as he said calmly, “Stinky.”
Everyone gasped. Chu Yan exuded an extraordinary aura. Everyone was guessing which family this young master was from. Was his family very rich? How dare he say that Master Wang was stinky!
Zhu Zongyang pointed at him angrily. “Chu Yan, how impudent of you to say that. Do you think you’re something now just because you became a constable? Before that, you were just a blacksmith.”
A blacksmith was covered in sweat every day. What right did he have to call others stinky?
Master Wang took a deep breath to suppress his anger. So this man and woman were a couple. No wonder they were so intimate.
He would put up with the two of them for the time being. When he exposed Liu Sanniang, he would deal with them together.
Master Wang looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss Liu, let’s begin.”
Liu Sanniang placed her hand on the handkerchief and released her power to envelop Master Wang.
Her strength was like a steel needle, piercing through Master Wang’s mental guard at full blast.
Master Wang, who was beaming a while ago, instantly stopped smiling.
He did not know how to describe this feeling. He could clearly feel a force enveloping him like a dark cloud.
Fear began to surge in his heart. He could not help but tremble and kick his legs, as if he wanted to escape Liu Sanniang’s control.
Liu Sanniang said slowly, “I saw you stab a dagger into his heart and sealed him in a way that he will continue to bring fortune and luck to the family. His soul is imprisoned there, and whatever you ask, he has to satisfy you.”
As soon as Liu Sanniang said that, Master Wang’s expression changed drastically. His face was twitching. He seemed to want to break free from Liu Sanniang’s grip, but he could not retract his hand even with all his strength.
The people who were waiting to watch the show frowned. They did not know what Liu Sanniang had done, nor did they know what was going on with Master Wang. All they could see was that Master Wang suddenly stopped smiling and looked as if he had seen something terrifying and wanted to escape.
The way people looked at Liu Sanniang changed as well. Was she a liar or a demon? Just by grabbing Old Master Wang’s hand, she could terrify him to such an extent.
Madam Wang pounced on Master Wang almost immediately after Liu Sanniang finished speaking. Liu Sanniang let go and withdrew her power.
Master Wang came back to his senses and almost fell. Fortunately, Madam Wang caught him in time. “Are you alright?”
Master Wang took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down. He looked at Liu Sanniang coldly. “What kind of demonic technique did you use on me? It makes me feel as if I’m being strangled. What nonsense did you spout? My family is honest and upright. The business we do is legal. Don’t slander me.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Master Wang and said calmly, “I saw him becoming very powerful. The Wang family will be wiped out.”
Master Wang pointed at Liu Sanniang angrily. “You, you…”
His fingers trembled. He looked into Liu Sanniang’s eyes and his pupils constricted. It took him a long time to suppress the fear in his heart.
Zhu Zongyang glared at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, you’re just trying to scare him. Initially, I wanted to forgive you, but now it seems that you’re not going to repent. Magistrate Wei, you saw it too, right? Everyone present saw it as well, no? Please testify for me.”
Liu Sanniang glanced at Zhu Zongyang. “Assistant Zhu, I suggest you go and see your daughter.”
Madam Yu grabbed Zhu Zongyang’s hand, her face filled with panic. Even the exquisite makeup couldn’t cover her pale face. She seemed to have imagined something terrifying and her hands kept on trembling.
Master Wang and Madam Wang’s expressions changed drastically. “Ridiculous, ridiculous. Do you think at my house, you can do whatever you want?”
Madam Wang turned towards Granny Zhou and gave her a look. “Granny Zhou, say something. Having such a person as a psychic will also ruin your reputation. We should get rid of her. Otherwise, who would still believe in mystics?”
Granny Zhou looked at Liu Sanniang and stood up.
When everyone’s gaze landed on her, Granny Zhou opened her mouth and said coldly, “What she said is true. Madam Wang killed her own son and nourished him with blood. You lived in luxury for decades, but on the day of his revenge, the Wang family will be entirely wiped out.”
After saying that, Granny Zhou looked at Liu Sanniang and turned to leave.
Those who heard it with their own ears couldn’t help but wide their eyes in shock.
Madam Wang and Master Wang’s faces were ashen, and they didn’t know what to say to explain themselves.
Madam Yu let out a tearing scream. “My daughter.”
Zhu Zongyang reached out to hold Madam Yu, who grabbed Zhu Zongyang’s collar and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Quick, go and save our daughter.”
Zhu Zongyang ran towards the backyard. His mind was blank. He could not even feel his limbs. Madam Yu chased after him with difficulty. She fell several times and struggled to get up.
Master Wang looked at Liu Sanniang coldly. “Miss, are you satisfied with how things turned out on someone else’s wedding day?”
