Chapter 206 Let him die of pain!
Luo Shu didn't know how she got through the whole day.
The people in the manor are even more cautious in their words and actions.
Luo Shu ignored it and locked herself in her room, never stepping out except to eat.
Around 9 p.m., Zhou Zhiyi knocked on the door and brought her her favorite lotus seed soup.
Luo Shu sat in the living room, her appetite gone.
"Child..." Zhou Zhiyi came over, probably wanting to say something to her.
"Mom," Luo Shu interrupted her, "it's getting late, you should get some rest."
Zhou Zhiyi had no intention of leaving. She reached out and held Luo Shu's hand, saying earnestly, "Mom knows you're wronged, and I can't help you feel better. Before you and A-Zhan got together, we were best friends, but after you got together, we became mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I really like you."
“Even if Zhan did something he shouldn’t have done, you and the child are innocent. Mom wants to tell you, don’t be stubborn. If he’s not right for you, I’ll find you someone better.”
"The Yu family are not ungrateful people and will not allow such a thing to happen. That woman will absolutely not be allowed into the Yu family!"
Luo Shu's tears fell into the bowl.
Should I introduce her to someone better?
This mother is someone you can get along with.
Zhou Zhiyi said a lot more, and Luo Shu listened quietly without offering any opinions.
She didn't know what to do.
After a long while, she washed her swollen face and lay back down on the bed.
The night is still very long.
Yu Zhan did not return.
He was kneeling in the Yu family ancestral hall, shirtless, with bloody whip marks on his back.
He only said one sentence: "I have never done anything to wrong Shu'er."
Yu Zheng held the thin but heavy whip in his hand. He knew he couldn't continue hitting her; it would break his heart.
After all, he is his own son. Although he is disappointed in him and hopes to remove the filth from him, beating him to death is not a good solution.
We need to leave some breath for Luo Shu to take.
"How's the situation over there going?" Grandpa Yu asked.
"There's still no result."
Yu Zhan responded with a choked voice, the burning pain in his back making him grit his teeth.
The weather was hot, and although the ancestral hall was air-conditioned, the forbearance he endured while being whipped caused him to break out in a cold sweat.
Sweat soaked the wounds, like fine salt sprinkled on the wounds; it was an indescribable pain.
"You really didn't sleep with that woman?" Grandpa Yu asked with a stern face.
Yu Zhan chuckled, "Excluding the time it takes to take off clothes, it's less than half an hour. Your grandson's strength is all inherited from you. That little bit of time isn't even enough for me to fill a tooth gap."
Yu Zheng smacked his lips, saying nothing. "This seems to be the case."
Grandpa Yu sneered, "Who knows? What if the good ones aren't inherited?"
"..." Yu Zheng turned his head and looked at his grandfather.
Who is this insulting?
“The matter is what it is now, and it’s not going to just end like this. Don’t think that just because you got beaten up tonight, it’s all over. Let me tell you, if Shu’er is still angry or upset about this, you won’t have a good time!” He paused. “She’s carrying the Yu family’s child. If you don’t live up to expectations, I can find someone else to take care of you.”
Yu Zhan remained silent.
Even if Grandpa Yu hadn't said it, he knew what he should do.
Luo Shu is his woman, how could he let her be sad and upset?
She was carrying his child; how could he not be in pain!
He clenched his fists and nodded, replying, "Grandson understands."
“I’ve already had someone get involved overseas. Have Shen Yan make the connection.” Yu Zheng’s voice softened.
Looking at his back covered in scars, I couldn't bear to look at him.
Good, let him learn his lesson!
Before long, only Yu Zhan remained in the ancestral hall.
He braced himself on the ground with both hands and slowly got up. His knees were stiff and sore that he couldn't straighten up. Coupled with the injury on his back, he hunched over and barely managed to stand up by holding onto a chair next to him.
He sat down carefully in the chair.
It took him a long time to recover.
"Young Master." The butler knocked on the open door.
Yu Zhan looked at him with those dark eyes.
"The old man asked me to get you some clothes." The butler didn't dare to go in.
"Come in," said Yu Zhan.
The butler was holding a black shirt. He whispered, "I was going to get you some ointment, but the old man said he'd rather you suffer in pain. However, he's afraid you'll frighten the young mistress, so he made you keep the shirt on."
Yu Zhan took the black shirt from the butler.
They really are grandfather and grandson!
However, as he took the shirt, the butler secretly slipped a small bottle into his hand.
Yu Zhan sneered.
"I'd rather die from the pain."
The butler twitched his lips, and when he saw the man's muscular back covered in cuts and bruises, he frowned deeply.
That was really ruthless!
The thick muscles were about to be smashed to pieces.
The whip marks crisscrossed across his back; how painful that must have been!
He had been standing at the door waiting the whole time, but apart from the sound of voices, he couldn't hear Yu Zhan groan at all.
One dared to fight! One dared to endure! And one dared to watch!
Every lash of the whip marks a bloody beginning.
"Young Master, how about I handle this for you?" The butler couldn't bear to watch any longer.
Yu Zhan lowered his gaze and said, "No need."
After saying that, he handed the medicine bottle back to the butler.
"This..." The butler looked bewildered.
In this weather, coupled with this injury, it will most likely fester if left untreated.
"I deserved to be beaten."
He picked up the shirt, enduring the excruciating pain, and carefully put on the clothes.
No matter how soft the shirt is, the scratches on your back will still hurt, and it's not much better than the first lash.
The housekeeper didn't say anything, took the medicine bottle and went downstairs.
Yu Zhan didn't mince words; he dressed and went back to find his wife.

"That brat really said that?"
Grandpa Yu looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, his brow furrowed.
"Is that really what the young master said?" the butler reported truthfully.
"Hmph, he's got guts! I was hoping he'd have some comfort, but it seems he'd rather die in pain! Let's see how long he can endure this!"
"You can't bear to hit me, yet you make me hit you! Why don't you hit me yourself?" Yu Zheng sat to the side drinking tea.
"I told you to hit him, not to hit him to death!" Grandpa Yu snatched the teacup from his hand. "Drink, drink, drink! All you know is drinking!"
Yu Zheng clicked his tongue and poured himself another cup of tea.
Grandpa Yu placed his teacup on the table, pondered something, and then picked up his phone to make a call.

When Yu Zhan returned to the room, Luo Shu was already asleep.
Unlike usual, she wasn't holding anything in her arms today. Before, she would either hug a pillow or a blanket, or he. Today, she was curled up on the bed, like a caterpillar about to be born.
Loneliness and helplessness.
She didn't even lock the door from the inside.
He carefully walked over, covered her with the air-conditioning blanket, and sat down beside her, looking at her intently.
I don't know if she was sleeping soundly or if she hadn't been sleeping well these past few days, but she slept exceptionally peacefully here today.
Yu Zhan lay down on his side and carefully embraced her from behind. His unkempt face slowly approached the ends of her hair, inhaling her scent.
He reached out and gently slipped his hand inside her clothes, finally resting on her flat stomach, quietly savoring the beauty of the moment.
"Baby, I'm sorry, I made your mom angry. Be good, and Daddy will definitely make her happy."
"Goodnight, my darling, my baby, goodnight, Daddy loves you."
He kissed her hair.
