Chapter 1766: Chapter 1766: The Old Woman with Teeth from the Man Kingdom

"I don’t know."

Su Meihua shook her head.

"All I heard was that those people were tooth-mothers from the Man Kingdom who wanted to buy some slaves for some business in the Man Kingdom. Every person who was sold would rather die than go there. I thought, let Lin Baizhong suffer that fate in his lifetime that nobody wants to bear, so I sold him."

As she spoke, the hatred in her eyes was boundless; it could no longer be concealed.

Even after several years, she had not forgotten the look of disdain Lin Baizhong had given her, as if she were a plague.

How could she let Lin Baizhong have a contented life after everything that happened?

"Hiss!"

Madam Su gasped sharply.

If Lin Caisang heard this conversation, wouldn’t she flay them alive?

Man Kingdom, Su Meihua actually sold Lin Baizhong to the Man Kingdom!

"Shush, Meihua, you must never speak of this again. Mother is telling you, you must not say...Ah!"

A ’bang’ came from behind.

Just as she was about to tell her daughter not to mention that Lin Baizhong was sold to the Man Kingdom to anyone else, Madam Su was startled by the sound behind her.

When she turned around, she saw a guard emerging from a corner.

"You... You..."

She felt weak all over, her pale lips quivering, but she couldn’t utter a sound.

When had this guard hidden there? Had he heard everything they just said?

"Mother, who is he?"

Su Meihua was also startled, her eyes wide as she watched the guard with cold eyes walk past her toward the exit.

"I... I don’t know either."

How could Madam Su not know? Even if she had not known before, as soon as she saw the guard come out, she had understood.

This guard had clearly been placed here by Lin Caisang.

Although that woman said with her mouth that she should come and ask her daughter, she didn’t truly trust her at all.

So, she had stationed a guard early on in the room to overhear the conversation between mother and daughter thoroughly.

"Mother, you lied to me, you actually... Mmph!"

Su Meihua had come to a realization too. She thought her mother had accepted benefits from Lin Caisang to probe for news about Lin Baizhong.

"Shush, don’t say anymore."

Right then, Madam Su truly wished she could kill her daughter.

Just as much as she had wanted to save her daughter moments ago, now she wanted to kill her just as much.

The Man Kingdom was a place where the people treated those from the Liang Kingdom even worse than animals, especially the slaves—it was no life for a human being.

And her daughter had sold Lin Baizhong to such a place.

If the guard told Lin Caisang everything he had heard, the consequences... She dared not imagine what fate awaited her.

"You...wait a moment."

Watching the guard stride toward the exit, Madam Su wanted to stop him.

But, who would pay her any attention?

...

"Man Kingdom?"

Upon hearing the guard’s words, the teacup in his hands was gripped tightly.

With a ’bang’, it was directly crushed.

Seeing this, Sui Zimo quickly took her hand, brought out a white handkerchief, cleaned the broken ceramic pieces, and then applied ointment to her cuts.

"Check immediately."

He ordered the guard.
