Chapter 350; What do you think?
"Did they go off by themselves? Or were they triggered? What could be the reason? Were there intruders? Or attackers?" The reporter inquired asking another question. The bombs weren’t going to go off just all of a sudden, something must have happened and led to that.
"I don’t know what happened and what could have triggered them, maybe it could be the thunder strikes since it rained so heavily last night, and apart from our family members, we didn’t see anyone around the Zhu mansion compound, and we can’t know what could have triggered the bombs!" She hysterically cried explaining what she came across last night through the hiccups, and that was the same story narrated by all the other women and children who survived but a keen person would realize that all the male members of the first lineage of the Zhu family were killed, the ones remaining were from the other families.
No male family member survived this tragedy! How could it be like that as simple as they narrated it to be?
Who could have destroyed the Zhu mansion? Who could have killed them? There was no way only the women and children survived but all the male members succumbed to death! It felt surreal, something fishy was going on!
And this attacker must have had remorse towards the other gender to let them escape without getting hurt.
No matter how the reporters questioned them, those women gave the same response with several versions! The answer was just the same! Or, were they hiding and protecting someone?
There was a rumor that the male members of the Zhu family treated females like slaves and there were rumours of them being violent. Was this a hidden justice game and decided to act innocent?
They just didn’t know how those women had been getting mistreated in that family! It was a nightmare and they felt like, they had just gotten salvation, everything else didn’t matter to them. They couldn’t wait to thank this savior for saving them from these evil creatures!
"Was your husband with you in your bedroom when you had gone to sleep?" Another reporter queried asking another frightened woman. You could see her bruised face and fear written all over her face.
"He told me he was going to have a meeting with his brother, I don’t know what they were going to talk about, after assisting my babies to bed, I went back to my bedroom and hadn’t returned, so I laid down in bed waiting for him but fell asleep until I was awakened by that fierce alarm..." She hoarsely muttered while keeping her head bowed, they were still in their pajamas but their eyes resonated with relief and calmness.
They felt they were finally free and didn’t mind that they were rained on last night, and they were still there until this morning. All they had in mind was that, finally, they could go back to their homes and start their lives afresh.
