Chapter 639 - 637: Even a ferocious tiger will not eat its cubs
Wang Yongan’s eyes were bloodshot, his expression painful as he punched himself, "Do you think I, as her father, am willing? Jinchai is the only child we have, the pearl in the palm of my hand. My love for her is no less than yours! To watch my own daughter become someone’s concubine with my eyes wide open, I would rather give my life to Lord Gao! Tomorrow, I will go and apologize to Lord Gao! Whether I have to give my life or something else, let me, her father, bear it all! I absolutely won’t implicate you and our daughter!"
Lady Qian collapsed into her seat, her expression changing as she struggled for a long time.
Wang Yongan just held Lady Qian, "It’s all because I am useless! Tomorrow, you and Jinchai should leave early, the farther the better! If you can find a good man in the future, as long as he treats you well, treats our Jinchai well, I’ll be at peace..."
Lady Qian trembled all over, shaking her head in panic, "Official! Are we really out of options? Can’t we think of some other way? Jinchai is my life! How can I let her become a concubine for Lord Gao? He’s old enough to be her grandfather!"
"Official, let’s beg Lord Gao, let’s be oxen and horses for him, but we can’t throw Jinchai into the fire pit!"
Wang Yongan’s eyes flared with a hint of annoyance. This Lady Qian, usually so gentle and accommodating, listening to everything he said, all just a façade!
Now that it has come to a matter of life and death for himself, even if he feels somewhat reluctant, isn’t it a situation without choice? Where there’s life, there’s hope. If he is all right, then the whole family will be well!
She could only remember the maternal sentimentality, not giving a thought to her husband’s future.
Truly a woman’s short-sightedness!
