Chapter 972 Not Defined by Others
Suizi and her husband stood firm against the pressure from her fourth uncle’s family and made a declaration on the spot.

With the efforts of the crowd and the firefighters, the fire was finally put out.
Suizi let the firemen enter to inspect and, after a thorough investigation, determined that the point of origin was the electric blanket in the back room of her fourth uncle’s house.
"Chen Tong was injured at the pig farm trying to save me during the day. Could he possibly drag his injured body over, sneak into your courtyard, and painstakingly plug in your electric blanket?"
Suizi spoke at least twice as fast as usual, her thoughts even quicker than Yu Jingting’s.
