Chapter 667 - 664: The Sheathed Sword_1
"He precisely used this point... to deceive Bai Qingyan into coming, and then had the opportunity to plead with her.
He bet on the Bai family’s high regard for trust and promise.
After a moment, Bai Qingyan asked, ’What is your son’s name?’
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianghai knew Bai Qingyan had agreed, and he quickly kowtowed, ’To the Princess of Zhen... my son’s name is Wang Qiulu! Qiulu... don’t you see your master! From today onwards... you are the Princess of Zhen’s person. You must be loyal to the Princess of Zhen for your entire life!’
Wang Qiulu stubbornly kept his neck straight, refusing to bow.
Seeing this, Wang Jianghai feared Bai Qingyan would go back on her word. He gritted his teeth and gave Wang Qiulu a harsh slap across the face. The force was so strong that it made him cough violently.
’Father! Father!’ Wang Qiulu ignored his burning cheek and hurriedly supported his father, his eyes red with tears.
’If you want your father’s soul to be restless after death, if you want your mother and grandmother... all to die without peace, then keep being stubborn! Come with us to face death!’ Wang Jianghai tightly gripped his son’s arm. By the end, his tone was almost pleading, ’Son! It’s easy to die, but living is the hardest! Liu Ruofu doesn’t truly care about you! Are you going to ignore your parents’ hopes for her? You are the entire hope of the Wang family. You need to live well! Live... to continue the Wang family line! Only then can I die with a clear conscience, having honored your grandfather, grandmother, and mother!’
