After Mu Qingcheng left the Mu household, she got in touch with Gong Shaoying.
The man reckoned that she had not turned up for their appointment because she had gotten cold feet.
However, when he finally learned the truth from her, including the fact that she was put under house arrest, he became furious and vowed to retaliate.
At that time, the Gong household went through a period of precipitation. The family's affairs were put into his hands, and under his authority, their power grew strong enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Mu family.
They could finally stand in arrogance before the Mus.
However, the woman still had sentimental attachments with her family, so she asked him to leave a way out for them.
He was too infuriated to oblige and used all powers in his grasp to deal a severe blow to the Mu Group.
