The Zhu family's expression changed at once, they all turned to look at Zhu Qian who was trying to walk past them ever since he entered his natal family house. Zhu Qian was the only mer born in the Zhu family, and he had two sisters that were older than him—— though he wasn't exactly doted on by his family, his treatment could be at least considered normal or as normal as it could have been with their family's poor condition. The two daughters of the Zhu family were not educated and relied on small jobs in the town to earn a decent living for their family.

  His sisters worked in the town while Zhu Qian worked at home—— that was how things have always been. Zhu Qian knew his sisters' capabilities…by their capabilities alone it was impossible for them to build a three storeys house, so, when Zhu Qian saw the house, his entire being was already shaken up. He didn't want to think worse about his family but given the situation, he couldn't help but think of the worst outcome already, when Daddy Zhu saw that Zhu Qian was not stopping his wife—- he immediately grasped his son's hand and tugged at his arm harshly. " Qian'er why are you not stopping your wife? Can't you see that she is hurting your sister? Hurry ask her to let go of your sister."

  In the Zhu family only Elder sister Zhu had some guts and apart from her no one else dared to poke an angry tigress in the eye, everyone with eyes could see that Lang was really angry, they no longer had the courage to approach Lang much less stop her from twisting Elder sister Zhu's arm.

  After being harshly pulled by his father, Zhu Qian woke from his daze and then glanced at his wife who was twisting his sister's arm. He didn't think that his wife was in the wrong at all, his family used the money that his wife sent to build their house and to live a comfortable life. They were eating soft turtle meat and his son was nowhere to be seen and if that wasn't bad enough, his entire family was standing in front of them like a thick wall of flesh stopping them from getting inside what else could it mean? Thus, Zhu Qian unrepentantly replied, " Daddy, my wife is not wrong. We are here to take Hui Hui back with us but instead, you all are trying to stop us from seeing our son—— what exactly are you trying to hide by doing something like this!"

  Daddy Zhu's expression darkened, when Zhu Qian was a child, he was soft-spoken and always listened to his parents. To think that soft-spoken child would one day retort him and even dare to question him.

  " You!" Daddy Zhu was really upset, he stared at his son who didn't look the slightest bit guilty and was even staring back at him like he was the one who was in the wrong. Being stared at by his son like this triggered the little bit of conscience that was left in Daddy Zhu's heart. Daddy Zhu was guilty and of course, he was in the wrong but he didn't want to admit that he was in the wrong—— he was the elder here, how can he admit something like that?

  However, when Zhu Qian continued to stare at him with that accusatory gaze, Daddy Zhu couldn't help but get angry. So, what if he made use of his grandson a little? He was the one who was raising him after all —— in the end, he couldn't withstand the pressure that Zhu Qian was silently putting on him as he raised his hand to slap Zhu Qian.

  Zhu Qian who noticed his daddy's actions closed his eyes, he could have stopped his daddy but then he would turn the tide in his family's favour. They will definitely treat his action as unfilial and ——


  The sound of a slap echoed at the entrance door but Zhu Qian didn't feel the sting of the slap. Stunned, he opened his eyes and what he saw made his eyes sting, his wife was standing in front of him like a shield as she has always had and was staring at his daddy with a stern gaze.

  " Wife, are you okay?" Zhu Qian hurriedly pulled out his handkerchief and wiped the blood off Lang's face, his daddy has been ruthless with his slap. He has secretly turned the stone of his ring that he was wearing inside out before slapping him, if not for Lang—— Zhu Qian might have got a scar on his cheek.

  Lang didn't say anything, she was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she might save someone irrevocable. She simply stared at her mother in law who was looking back at her in shock, from her peripheral view Lang saw her second sister in law Zhu's child sneaking out of the room to the backyard. Her eyes turned and she forcefully rushed past the human wall that the Zhu family had made in front of her.

  Second Sister Zhu noticed that Lang has sensed something and tried to stop her but Lang gave her a look similar to that of Yu Dong when she was dealing with thugs and second sister Zhu immediately pulled her hand back, she no longer dared to stop Lang.

  Lang rushed into the backyard, where a small shack was built… from inside she could hear the painful groans of a child. Her heart went ice-cold as she ran to the shack and broke open the door and as soon as she did that her heart that was thumping in her chest jumped to her throat because on a small broken down cot was her son. He was clearly hurt as his entire body was wrapped in bandages and with her good sense of smell, Lang could detect the scent of blood in the air, she tentatively walked towards her son and her eyes turned red when she noticed how badly he was hurt.

  Clearly, she left him here so that her in-laws would care of him—- is that how they took good care of her son?

  " Hui Hui?" Lang softly called her son who seemed to be half-conscious. He blinked his eyes and then curled with a soft wince, causing Lang's heart to ache. She hurriedly sat down next to her son and delicately raised his thin arm, only heaving a sigh of relief when she saw his virginity mark still in place. When she saw Lang Hui all bruised and battered she thought her in law's might have done something unspeakable to him.

  She scooped her son in her arm, as a mother she shouldn't touch her son once he reached the age of seven but Lang no longer cared about it. Her son was hurt and in need of medical treatment, right now she couldn't worry about the social norms—— she strode out of the shack and when her eyes fell on the Zhu family who was standing far away, she suddenly had an urge to smack these people dead! In not for them being her husband's family, she might have done just that but that doesn't mean she can't teach them a lesson!

  ——-

  Lang: I can't hit them but you all can!! One ps= one slap!! So go on and hit the Zhu family for me!!

  Lang Ru: A gift will be equivalent to ten slaps!!!
