'I'll have to get another advance from Senior Sister Yu.'
However, before he could leave that day, Jiang Man saw a light appear on the Old Yellow Ox.
"Your wife sent another message," the Old Yellow Ox said casually.
Jiang Man retrieved the ball of light with practiced ease.
He was curious what Meng Qiewei would say. This was her first message since she had left.
The ball of light dispersed, and a voice echoed in Jiang Man's mind.
"Husband, they're bullying me. They even used my mother's belongings to humiliate me and mocked me for being alone even though I'm married.
"They're too powerful. I'm just a helpless woman; there's nothing I can do.
"They're going to investigate the person who went missing from the Magpie Bridge.
"You must be careful, Husband. They might trace their investigation back to you before long.
"When you become powerful, Husband, will you stand up for me?"
Her delicate voice was tinged with a hint of grievance and hope.
