“My face is bleeding~~ Damn it! How dare you ruin my face~~”
“Yun Youyou, I’ll fight you to the death~~”
He gripped the disciplinary stick tightly and swung it toward Yun Youyou’s face, determined to disfigure her in return.
The next second, an incredible sight occurred—the stick only hit Yun Youyou’s afterimage.
Yun Zhenguo’s face was full of shock:
“No~~ How is this possible? I don’t believe it~~”
But Yun Youyou paid him no mind, continuing to lash her whip.
Whap! Whap!
She lashed Yun Youran one moment, Yun Zhenguo the next, continuously swinging the whip.
Whap! Whap!
“Arrgh~~”
“Yun Youyou, stop! My hands~~”
“Third sister~~ don’t hit me~~ I’m your second sister!”
“Third sister~~ don’t hit me~~ I’m your big brother!”
Hearing this, Yun Youyou almost laughed with anger. She lashed while speaking:
“I don’t have a family, let alone brothers or sisters, understand?”
“Ever since you and Liang Yuanchao pushed me into the river, I realized I must make everyone who hurt me pay.”
Whap! Whap!
Hearing Yun Youyou’s words, Yun Zhenguo, writhing on the ground, had a flash of hope.
“Ah~~ It hurts so much~~ Stop~~”
“Third sister~~ It was those two scoundrels who harmed you. Take revenge on them, and spare your big brother~~”
“I didn’t harm you~~ You can’t take revenge on the wrong person~~ Spare me!”
Yun Youran, writhing in pain, glared at her brother furiously:
“Big brother, how can you say that about me?”
Whap!
“Ah~~ My legs~~ they’re bleeding~~”
“Stop hitting~~ third sister~~”
“I, your second sister, admit my mistakes. Please spare me~~”
“It was your big brother who suggested selling you into that poor village, to make you a laborer.”
In a corner of the hall, Zhou Miaomiao, lying on the ground, had long since regained consciousness.
But she didn’t dare move, fearing the fury of the “hag.”
Yun Youyou knew Yun Youran was lying, but deliberately redirected the whip toward Yun Zhenguo.
Raising her voice:
“Yun Zhenguo, you actually wanted to sell me! You deserve to die!”
Whap! Whap!
The whip rained down on Yun Zhenguo, who began rolling on the floor again.
“Ah~~”
Pain made him tremble even while speaking:
“Third sister~~ I didn’t~~ Please believe me~~”
“This… was second sister’s doing~~”
“She wanted to use the money from selling you as her dowry~~ So don’t punish the wrong person~~”
Hearing this, Yun Youran ignored her own pain and slowly stood up, walking over to Yun Zhenguo.
She slapped him hard across the face.
Whap!
“Yun Zhenguo, how dare you speak nonsense?”
After delivering the slap, Yun Youran had used all her strength and collapsed onto the ground.
The next second, she screamed:
“Arrgh~~ my butt~~”
Yun Zhenguo, already on the verge of fainting, was knocked out cold by his sister’s slap.
Seeing this, Yun Youyou shook her head:
“This body is too weak, what a tofu-like body!”
“To be knocked out by a single slap, pfft~~”
After saying this, she turned her gaze to Yun Youran, still screaming at the side.
“Not bad! Yun Youran, your body’s stronger than I thought.”
Hearing this, Yun Youran froze. She looked at Yun Youyou with terror on her face.
Stammering:
“Third sister~~ I was wrong about that matter~~ I shouldn’t have seduced Liang Yuanchao~~”
“I’ll give him to you~~ Please don’t hit me anymore~~ I promise I won’t see him again~~”
Hearing the fool speak, Yun Youyou coldly smiled:
“Yun Youran, don’t think everyone is like you.”
“You like trash; I don’t like trash. Men you’ve been with, I find dirty~~”
“Besides, I don’t like Liang Yuanchao either. But you two scoundrels nearly killed me. If you do wrong, you must pay.”
She resumed swinging the whip, each lash landing on Yun Youran’s body and face.
Whap! Whap!
“Ah~~ Stop hitting me~~”
“Third sister~~ You can’t forget and forgive~~ Spare me!”
“I really can’t take it anymore~~ Someone’s going to die~~”
But Yun Youyou, enjoying her whipping, didn’t stop. She ignored Yun Youran’s wails and continued:
Whap! Whap!
“Ah~~”
“Third sister~~ I was wrong~~”
“Please spare me!”
Before long, Yun Youran also fainted from the beating.
Yun Youyou furrowed her brows, looking at the three people knocked out on the ground:
“Useless~~ too weak to endure a beating~~”
Suddenly, her gaze shifted to where Zhou Miaomiao was lying. The floor was empty.
She had gotten so carried away with whipping that she completely forgot about the unconscious Zhou Miaomiao.
She shouted coldly:
“Zhou Miaomiao, come out! You can’t escape.”
“If you come out yourself, you’ll get hit less.”
In the study, Zhou Miaomiao, trembling, hid behind the door and didn’t dare make a sound.
She regretted it—she should have killed Yun Youyou back then instead of raising her. She shouldn’t have coveted the bride price. What could she do now?
She couldn’t escape or hide—was she just going to wait for death? No—she wasn’t ready to die.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up—she had an idea.
She slowly opened the door and raised her voice:
“You You! Let’s make a deal, okay?”
“I can tell you about your parents’ situation. Spare me, just me, and that’s enough.”
Hearing this, Yun Youyou raised an eyebrow, glancing at the three father-and-sons lying on the ground.
Seeing them stir slightly, their hands involuntarily clenching, Yun Youyou’s lips curved into a slight smile. She looked directly at Zhou Miaomiao, deliberately raising her voice:
“You don’t want to save your husband or children?”
Hearing this, Zhou Miaomiao froze, feeling awkward.
She quickly responded:
“Husband and wife are like birds in the same tree—when disaster strikes, each flies their own way. Isn’t that normal?”
“As for the children… this time, let them repay the care I gave them. I raised them, now it’s their turn to give back.”
The three on the floor clenched their fists tightly, lashes trembling in anger.
If they weren’t afraid of Yun Youyou, they would have jumped up and attacked Zhou Miaomiao long ago.
Yun Youyou, standing aside, naturally noticed this. Her smile grew even more wicked.
“Zhou Miaomiao, tell me! If the news you share is valuable, I might spare you. Otherwise~~”
Her words carried an unmistakable threat.
Zhou Miaomiao wanted to bargain further, but Yun Youyou coldly reminded her:
“Whether you speak or not is up to you—I don’t care~~”
