Although it didn't fall on Nan Zhiyun, it still made her body tremble.
Nan Zhiyun was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes. Now that things had come to this, Yu Jingchen would never give her another chance. This was her own choice, so now she had to bear the consequences.
so……
"Show me your hands!" Yu Jingchen said.
Nan Zhiyun shakily extended her hand, spreading it out flat. When Yu Jingchen saw the mark on her wrist, he felt a surge of anger. Without saying a word, he slapped her hand with a board. The first slap was a bit hard, probably using about five-tenths of his strength, and a red mark instantly appeared on Nan Zhiyun's hand.
"Hiss..." Nan Zhiyun had never felt such pain before. Perhaps it was just psychological, but tears suddenly fell uncontrollably. However, she didn't even dare to pull her hand back.
Seeing that she could really endure it, Yu Jingchen let her take the second blow. This time, the blow had seven-tenths of its force. Not everyone could endure seven-tenths of Yu Jingchen's force. Nan Zhiyun could no longer bear it and withdrew her hand.
"It hurts..." Nan Zhiyun dared not extend her hand again.
"You know what pain is? Did it hurt when you fell today? Did it hurt when you were bitten by a snake?" Yu Jingchen didn't make another move.
Nan Zhiyun hung her head, looking exactly like a child being punished for making a mistake. She was getting impatient, but since Yu Jingchen had already started, he wouldn't let her get away with it so easily. He had already given her a chance, but Nan Zhiyun herself hadn't cherished it.
"Hold out your hand. Don't think it's over yet. We didn't say anything earlier, so now we should see this through to the end." Yu Jingchen said. Nan Zhiyun held her hand tightly, not daring to extend it, but after seeing Yu Jingchen's eyes, she dared not hide anymore.
When she stretched out her hand, Yu Jingchen could clearly see the two red marks on her palm, which would probably swell up.
Yu Jingchen didn't want to say more, and directly raised the object in his hand and struck. This time, Nan Zhiyun didn't shrink back. She closed her eyes in fear, but... after Yu Jingchen struck her once, the rest of the blows never came down.
"Is this a sign that you've given up on defending yourself?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
Nan Zhiyun shook her head: "I was wrong. I didn't mean to hide it from you today. I didn't tell you I was riding a horse because I knew you were busy. After I got lost, I followed them because I was afraid something unexpected might happen ahead. I thought I could handle it... I didn't want you to see me after I was bitten by a snake because I was afraid you would worry and overreact. I know that snake wasn't poisonous, so I didn't want to cause any more trouble..." Nan Zhiyun didn't even raise her head when she said these words.
Yu Jingchen was so angry he laughed after hearing these words.
“I never said your affairs were troublesome. I told you that your safety should always be the top priority. I also told you not to hide these things from me. You said you didn't want me to worry, but what have you done that I haven't worried about? You said you knew the snake wasn't poisonous, but what if you were wrong? What if I really didn't notice it and something went wrong later?”
"Furthermore, if those two people really were assassins today, what good do you think you could do by following them? What could you possibly stop? If they were real assassins, you might be dead by now, you know? Besides, they deliberately released wolves today. What if you were actually injured by one of those wolves?"
"Nan Zhiyun, can you think things through before you act? Don't think that what you do is right, or that everything you do is reasonable. When it comes to your own safety, you should always put yourself first."
"Do you really think you're so powerful?" Yu Jingchen truly lost control this time and started yelling. Countless questions made Nan Zhiyun feel increasingly guilty, uneasy, and fearful.
