The man held a black box and handed it to Tang Nian.
Looking at the black square box, Madam Tang suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked to Tang Nian, nervously tugging his arm, "What... what's inside?"
The two were terrified, fearing what might be within.
Tang Nian's face darkened, and he snapped, "Why are you crying? Xing'er isn't dead."
He was extremely annoyed.
Glaring at the man in the suit, he said, "Open the box."
"Yes, Mr. Tang."
The man in the suit held the box, swallowing nervously, afraid of what deadly contents it might hold.
He carefully opened the box, and a scent of blood filled the air. Then, he saw a finger lying inside the box.
And on the finger, there was a ring.
"Ah!"
Upon seeing the object, Madam Tang screamed in terror, "It's Xing'er, sob... that's Xing'er, it's Xing'er's finger, sob sob..."
Madam Tang burst into tears, then her vision went black, and she fainted.
"Wife?" Tang Nian rushed to support Madam Tang, "Wife, are you alright? Someone, call the family doctor, get the family doctor here, quickly!"
He never imagined the box would contain his daughter's finger, nor that Qing Muye would be so arrogant as to chop off his daughter's finger.
The butler was also badly shaken and quickly ordered someone to fetch the family doctor.
A moment later, the family doctor, carrying a medical bag, came running.
In the bedroom on the second floor, Madam Tang lay unconscious on the bed. Tang Nian paced the room anxiously, unable to contain his roar, "Hasn't the doctor arrived yet?"
"Coming, coming."
Just then, the doctor burst into the bedroom, panting, and nodded slightly to Tang Nian, "Mr. Tang."
"Quickly, quickly check on my wife, why did she suddenly faint."
Tang Nian pointed at the person on the bed and instructed the doctor.
The doctor walked to the bedside, sat on a chair, examined Madam Tang, and after inquiring about the situation, said, "Madam fainted due to extreme anger and shock. There is no serious issue. However, Madam's health is not very good, so it's best to avoid any stimulation."
Hearing the doctor say his wife was fine, Tang Nian finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"I understand. Take good care of her."
Tang Nian nodded.
Seeing her hooked up to an IV drip, Tang Nian, worried about Tang Wanxing, turned and went downstairs, leaving two maids and the doctor to watch over her.
Downstairs, Tang Nian increased the search party for Tang Wanxing.
Finally, Tang Wanxing was found an hour later.
When Tang Wanxing was escorted back to the villa, Tang Nian saw his daughter looking utterly disfigured, and even worse, her prized jet-black hair had been shorn off. He trembled with rage.
"Xing'er? Xing'er?"
Tang Nian rushed to his unconscious daughter, placing his hands on her shoulders and gently shaking her.
The unconscious Tang Wanxing gradually regained consciousness, blinking her heavy eyelids. Vaguely, she saw Tang Nian.
At that moment, all her grievances and humiliation surged into her heart. She cried out with a wail, "Sob, Daddy, sob... I..."
Her entire body felt numb with pain. She cried loudly and sat up from the stretcher. However, as she placed her hand on the stretcher and exerted force, her left hand throbbed with pain, making her tremble all over.
She looked down and was shocked to find her left little finger was missing.
She froze for a moment, her face instantly turning as pale as paper. Then, she clutched her hand in agitation, screaming, "Where's my finger? Ahhh~~ Where's my finger? Sob sob... Where's my hand? My hand..."
Before she could finish speaking, Tang Wanxing's vision went black, and she fainted again.
