"Master Fu, I will ask once again. Did you, or did you not, see anyone push the wagon?" the head guard said, staring directly at Master Fu, along with everyone else.
My brows lifted.
Why on earth wasn't he saying anything?
Madame Fu quickly spoke up, her voice anxious.
"He's probably still in shock," she told the head guard. "That's why he hasn't said anything yet."
The head guard let out a slow breath and shook his head slightly.
Behind her, Grandma Fu scoffed loudly. She crossed her arms and rolled her eyes, her expression full of mockery, as if the entire matter was a waste of time.
Just as the head guard was about to speak again, Master Fu suddenly raised his voice.
"No one pushed it," he said clearly. "The wagon slid by itself."
The words stunned everyone.
I felt my breath hitch, and beside me, Fu Sheng stiffened. We exchanged a quick look, both of us equally shocked.
Fu Fei was the first to react. She stepped forward at once, her voice shaking with disbelief.
