Demon Realm, Helan Mansion——
That year, the young He Lanzhi curled up tightly in her mother's arms, her small body curled into a ball.
"Mom, why do we have to live here? It's not good at all. It leaks. When it rains, everything is wet and damp."
There was a hint of grievance and confusion in little He Lanzhi's voice.
His mother gently stroked his head, but that gentle gesture hid endless bitterness, and her eyes were full of helplessness and sadness: "Xiaozhi, it's okay, as long as I am here, everything will be fine."
Little He Lanzhi nodded, seemingly understanding, but couldn't help but ask, "Then Mother, why can Brother Yu live in the big house? Why do we have to live here?"
When the mother heard this, her eyes instantly turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes, as if two crystal pearls were about to fall:
"Because your brother Yu's mother is the legal wife, and your mother is not even a concubine, she has no status at all, so she can only live here."
"Is status important?" Little He Lanzhi's eyes widened in disbelief. Her innocent eyes were filled with confusion, and then she asked innocently:
"If my mother would be bullied without a legitimate status, then why didn't my father give her one? And why have I never seen my father?"
His mother hugged him tightly, her voice trembling, "Because your father has abandoned me and doesn't even want to see me."
Little He Lanzhi was even more puzzled: "Why is Father like this? Since he doesn't like Mother anymore, why doesn't he let her go free?"
Upon hearing this, his mother's face turned extremely bitter. She patted his back gently and said, "Maybe it's because foxes...are all evil."
"Xiaozhi, don't be like your father in the future. If you meet a fox you like, you must treat her well."
Little He Lanzhi nodded again, not quite understanding, and then gradually fell asleep in her mother's warm yet slightly thin arms.
Days passed by like flowing water, and little He Lanzhi grew up in this difficult environment. However, fate did not seem to let them go...
One day, the mistress of the house suddenly got angry and falsely accused my mother of stealing valuables from the house.
My mother was severely punished and beaten until she was covered in bruises, which left scars all over her frail body.
Little He Lanzhi watched his mother suffer, his heart filled with anger and hatred. He wanted to do something, wanted to rush up to protect his mother, but... he was too weak and could do nothing.
After this incident, my already weak mother became even weaker due to her injuries. Even taking a few steps seemed to require all her strength and was extremely difficult.
This caused other foxes to bully them even more unscrupulously...
"Ah!" A cry of pain came from a child who looked only six or seven years old. The sound was shrill and helpless. It turned out that a fox servant in the mansion had kicked him hard.
Originally, little He Lanzhi was extremely thin due to long-term oppression and lack of food. Adding to that the force of the kick, it seemed as if the fox used all its strength, causing little He Lanzhi to fall directly to the ground, covering her abdomen with her hands.
"Hey, Butler Wu, you said this guy is so pretty, like a little girl. I haven't had sex for a long time recently. Can you let me touch him? I promise not to say a word afterwards."
The tall servant fox looked at the fox beside him with flattery.
When little He Lanzhi heard the fox's words, he tried to struggle to get up and run away, but he was now in pain all over his body, as if he had been deeply pierced by countless steel needles, and he could not move at all.
So disgusting... So disgusting...
His heart was filled with fear, as if he had fallen into a dark abyss, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
But when the servant fox saw him crying, it became even more interested. Its greedy eyes looked as if it wanted to eat him alive.
However, upon hearing this, Butler Wu sternly rebuked him, "Put away your dirty thoughts and don't do unnecessary things. Today we are just teaching him a lesson on behalf of the Third Young Master. Do you understand?"
The fox servant bowed and nodded repeatedly, extremely respectful: "Yes, yes, yes, I understand, I won't do anything unnecessary."
Although he acted like this on the surface, he was actually glaring at little He Lanzhi behind her back, feeling extremely disdainful in his heart.
He is nothing but a nameless and lowly creature. He is good-looking like his mother, but nothing else. It is estimated that when he grows up, he will be a person who depends on other men and be played with by other monsters.
Little He Lanzhi had no idea what the servant fox was thinking, and was just secretly glad that he had escaped.
Now he just wanted to go back and be with his mother as she had recently fallen seriously ill and needed his care.
Butler Wu came up to him with a complicated expression, lifted his face with his fingers, and looked at him carefully.
Little He Lanzhi's face was covered in dust at this time, but despite this, one could still see how beautiful his face was, like a beautiful jade covered in dust.
Butler Wu breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Boy, this is not the place for you to be. If you hadn't contradicted the Third Young Master, you wouldn't have ended up like this. This is a lesson for you. You must remember it in the future."
After he finished speaking, he left quickly, as if staying here for a moment longer would dirty his feet.
The fox servant kicked him a few more times in the abdomen before leaving with Butler Wu.
Little He Lanzhi waited until they were all far away before she endured the pain, slowly got up from the ground, and brushed off the dust on her body.
