Tu Zhizhi never thought that Old Lady Shang would dare to negotiate with her at this point. She looked at her in disbelief, her eyes almost spitting fire as she asked, "Do you want to see him die?"

Old Lady Shang's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was slightly choked with sobs: "I want him to live a good life, but you have a bad temper and a fickle personality. How can I trust you?"

After Mrs. Shang finished speaking, she looked at Tu Zhizhi deeply and said bitterly, "What kind of temper do you have? The Eighth Prince probably knows it very well, so he followed you here at this time."

"Tu Zhizhi, I hope you can be self-aware and not make things worse. Otherwise, I would rather die here with Xu Yi than be coerced by you."

Old Mrs. Shang finished her speech in one breath. Her eyes became particularly determined, but her aura contained a hint of coldness.

It seemed that if Tu Zhizhi didn't agree with her, she would die with her.

Tu Zhizhi just felt that she was threatening her, and her anger rose rapidly. She wished she could burn Old Lady Shang to ashes.

However, the pain in her body became more and more intense. Even though she had been tortured by the Eighth Prince before, that torture was nothing compared to this pain.

She had to suppress her hatred and looked at the Eighth Prince helplessly, saying in a tone full of grievance: "Eighth Prince, you heard what the old woman said. She is fearless."

When she said the last few words, Tu Zhizhi's eyes became even redder, as if she was about to cry in the next moment, which made people feel very pitiful.

The Eighth Prince said earnestly, "I've told you a long time ago that Old Lady Shang is not easy to mess with. You didn't believe me. Now you know for sure how hard she is to mess with."

The Eighth Prince's words seemed to be speaking for Old Lady Shang, but in fact he was secretly blaming her.

When Tu Zhizhi understood what the Eighth Prince meant, she no longer felt happy. Instead, she felt an unspeakable embarrassment in her heart that she could not let go.

"Mrs. Shang wants a promise. Your Highness, you should be a witness and give her a promise. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will really die with her today."

Tu Zhizhi tried hard to suppress the reluctance in her heart and spoke in a rather bitter tone.

"I'm still young, how can I die here with her?"

After hearing her say this, Ye Yun looked at her carefully, making sure that she was serious at the moment and had completely recognized the reality. He was ready to bow his head, so he said to Old Lady Shang: "Your Highness and I are willing to bear witness for you, so you can give the antidote to Tu Zhizhi."

There was a hint of helplessness on Ye Yun's handsome face, as if the incident between the two of them made him speechless, but he had to think about Tu Zhizhi.

When Old Lady Shang heard him speak, her eyes were dark and unreadable, but she said, "Since you said that, I am naturally willing to take out the antidote, but Tu Zhizhi hasn't sworn the poisonous oath yet."

"Besides, she has some conflicts with the Eighth Prince. If the Eighth Prince makes a promise but she doesn't obey, what should she do?"

Having said this, Old Lady Shang didn't know what she was thinking about, and her tears couldn't stop falling.

"Xu Yi is my only relative, so I am willing to do anything for him. But Tu Zhizhi grabbed his neck and threatened me with his life and death."

"No matter how much I want to believe her, I can't feel at ease facing such a thing!"

"Eighth Prince, it's not that I have to make Tu Zhizhi swear an oath, but if she doesn't do so, your promise will become empty talk."

"I can only do this just in case. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me."

Old Lady Shang didn't know the Eighth Prince, but she felt that as a man with a long-term vision, he would not allow Tu Zhizhi to ruin his reputation.

Therefore, Old Lady Shang no longer looked at Tu Zhizhi, but instead looked at the Eighth Prince eagerly, hoping that he would scold Tu Zhizhi and ask her to release her grandson first.

"Tu Zhizhi may not listen to me." The Eighth Prince knew what Old Lady Shang was worried about. He should have done as she wished and made a solemn promise to reassure her.

But thinking of Tu Zhizhi's hypocritical character, the Eighth Prince did not want Tu Zhizhi to slap him in the face after he finished speaking, thus embarrassing him in front of Old Lady Shang.

After weighing the pros and cons, he could only say the ugly words up front, and then signaled Tu Zhizhi with his eyes to let the person go first. As for what would happen next, he and Ye Yun would do their best to help her and would never let her suffer any loss.

Tu Zhizhi received the gaze from the Eighth Prince and instantly understood his thoughts.

She felt angry and wanted to disobey him, but she couldn't ignore the pain in her body. As her thoughts turned, she could only push Xu Yi into Ye Yun's arms with a sour face.

"Mrs. Shang, I have already released him. Where is the antidote? Please give it to me quickly." Tu Zhizhi asked for the antidote with confidence.

Seeing Xu Yi being released, Old Lady Shang felt relieved a little. She then ignored Tu Zhizhi and focused on Xu Yi, "How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xu Yi breathed in the fresh air and finally felt like he was alive again.

But when he heard Old Lady Shang's caring words, he felt that everything he had suffered was because of her, and instantly said with a cold face: "With you here, I feel uncomfortable everywhere."

"If you have the ability, die now. Maybe when I see you dead, my mood will immediately improve."

Xu Yi's curse-filled words were shocking. The Eighth Prince and Wan Shufang couldn't help but look at him.

Seeing him glaring at Old Lady Shang with hatred, Wan Shufang couldn't help but think of the Chen Ping brothers.

These two people are also undisciplined. If they hate her like Xu Yi, what should she do?

As soon as Wan Shufang thought of this, she thought of Chen Changli.

He went to rescue the Chen Ping brothers personally. Facing the possible attitudes of the two brothers, he would probably face them at the first opportunity.

How would he feel? Disappointment or hatred?

Wan Shufang didn't dare to think about it and could only try to calm herself down. She looked at Xu Yi with a cold face and sarcasm in her eyes.

"You are fine now because of Old Lady Shang. Xu Yi, you must not forget your roots, nor be unfilial."

When she saw Xu Yi, it was as if she was seeing the Chen Ping brothers, and the words that came out of her mouth couldn't help but sound earnest.

"This is a matter between us grandparents and grandchildren. Why are you here to meddle in it?" Xu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, with a bit of hostility.

Old Mrs. Shang felt heartbroken and tears flowed like water.

Tu Zhizhi was very happy when she saw the lawsuit between the grandfather and grandson, but she didn't show it on her face. She just stretched out her hand to ask Old Lady Shang for the antidote, "I have done what you asked. Where is the antidote?"

Old Lady Shang gnashed her teeth and said, "You haven't sworn the oath yet."

Tu Zhizhi's eyes were red with hatred: "Isn't it just a poisonous oath? I'll swear it now."

She raised her hand and swore a poisonous oath, then she stared at Xu Yi with a provocative tone: "Look, she is still forcing me now, Xu Yi, her kindness towards you must be greatly reduced! You should be careful and don't be fooled by her words."
