Qin Yao and her daughter returned home, chatting and laughing, only to see Liu Ji pacing anxiously in the yard.
The man who had always been attentive to his wife didn't approach her this time, but instead let out a deep sigh.
Qin Yao's good mood was instantly ruined by that look. Her face darkened as she sternly questioned, "Liu San, are you looking to die?"
Unexpectedly, he sat right on the main hall's threshold and cried out to the heavens, "I want to die! I really want to die! Just let me die!"
Upon hearing this, Si Niang felt a jolt inside, wondering if her father had grown tired of living.
The young girl had just finished thinking when her mother grabbed the broom by the door and charged forward in two large strides.
"Want to die? Fine! I'll fulfill your wish!"
Qin Yao swung the broom down, and Liu Ji seemed to snap back to reality, eyes widening in alarm just seconds before the broom hit him. He jumped up with a whoosh.
