What followed was a one-sided beating.
Mo Ningyu knelt facing Sisi, and Qi An grabbed her hair and beat her mercilessly.
Seeing his beloved woman being beaten, Song Hui wanted to help, but for some reason he couldn't move or get up, and could only rage in vain.
"Stop it! Stop hitting him..."
“Ningyu, Ningyu…”
"Song Si, what are you standing there for? Go and pull your mother away!"
"Ningyu, run!"
Mo Ningyu: ...Is it fucking me who doesn't want to run?
This old woman looked thin and not very tall, so how could she be so strong? She couldn't break free at all.
Sisi watched in stunned silence as Qi An brutally beat Mo Ningyu, pulling her hair, slapping her, punching and kicking her. Mo Ningyu curled up on the ground, disheveled, bruised and swollen, powerless to resist, only able to cry and beg for mercy.
Just like she was back then.
Sisi's trembling gradually stopped. She watched without blinking, feeling immense pleasure.
It turns out that even the most powerful abuser is just as vulnerable when faced with someone stronger than her.
Mo Ningyu, who used to trample her underfoot, doesn't seem so scary after all.
As for Song Hui telling her to pull her mother away? No, she didn't want to do it at all. Her mother was avenging her, so why should she stop her?
Ata jumped around excitedly: "Good hit! Good hit! Qi'an, hit harder..."
Ten minutes later, Qi An finally stopped, and Song Hui also found that he could move again. He quickly got up to check on Mo Ningyu.
At this moment, Mo Ningyu had dark circles under her eyes, and blood was gushing from her nose, which had been beaten and was now flowing down to her chin. There was also blood on her scalp because several clumps of her hair had been pulled out.
The pink tulle dress had long since been rolled into a tattered rag, completely obscuring her previous pure and beautiful appearance.
Sisi couldn't help but laugh when she saw her face like that.
Mom is right, that's what an apology should be like. Anyone can just talk the talk.
As soon as Mo Ningyu was in Song Hui's arms, she started crying. However, she looked so pitiful and funny that her crying seemed like she was making people laugh. Song Hui felt heartbroken, but he almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Before the two could express their feelings to each other, Qi An grabbed Mo Ningyu's arm, dragged her away, and threw her out.
"Get lost. From now on, I'll beat you every time I see you."
The security guards patrolling around the villa were quick to notice and took the person away.
Song Hui rushed up to Qi An: "You've gone too far! Ning Yu is a girl, how could you hit her so hard?"
Qi An: "So Sisi is a boy."
Song Hui choked up.
Then he looked at Sisi and said, "Are you satisfied now? Ningyu also got hit, so you're even now. Don't make things difficult for her with those trivial things from when she was little. She has already apologized."
Qi An asked Sisi, "Sisi, do you want to accept her apology?"
If Song Si answers "accept," she will ignore her. If she doesn't value herself, no one can save her.
Fortunately, Sisi did not disappoint her: "I will not accept it, and I will not forgive it."
"Okay." Qi An stroked Sisi's hair. "This is my daughter. Never forgive those who hurt you. What you should do is repay them tenfold."
Qi An turned to Song Hui and said, "Did you hear that? As long as I'm here, I guarantee that little bitch won't be able to get through this door."
"You, you..." Song Hui's lips trembled with anger.
He felt wronged and embarrassed at that moment. Mo Ningyu being beaten was secondary. He just suddenly felt that his mother had changed and no longer put him first in everything.
It's all Song Si's fault. If it weren't for her, Mom wouldn't have made things difficult for Ning Yu or embarrassed him.
Over the years, his mother has been too busy with work to spend much time with him. Whenever this comes up, his mother feels guilty and always tries to fulfill his requests, and it never fails.
"You've never cared about me since I was a child, so what right do you have to interfere with my dating life now?"
He waited for his mother to show weakness and give in, because that was always the case, but this time he was disappointed.
What he didn't know was that his mother, who felt guilty towards him and always granted his every wish, was long gone, and Qi An would never spoil him.
Qi An laughed in exasperation: "Never cared about you? Were you raised by the wind?"
"Your father is dead. Does your mother have to stay home all day with you instead of going out to earn money, and the whole family starve?"
"Haven't we taken care of you? Do you think everything you eat, drink, wear, and use comes from thin air?"
"Other children eat steamed buns, pickled vegetables, and porridge from a young age, walk to and from school in the cold winter and hot summer, and help with chores after school. They can't even buy a few new clothes or toys all year round. What about you?"
"Your mother wasn't home with you, but aren't the nannies and drivers who take care of you inside and out human beings?"
"They eat delicacies every day, their clothes are washed, their beds are made, they are driven to and from school, they have countless toys, and all their clothes are designer brands."
"When you're dressed in designer clothes, driving a luxury car, and wearing an expensive watch, showing off in public, do you envy those who have their mothers with them, but even emptying their families' pockets, they still can't afford one of your watches?"
Qi An scoffed, "You became a senior executive in your mother's company right after graduation. Those employees who graduated from prestigious universities serve you tea and water and act according to your wishes. Is it because you are outstanding and exceptionally capable? No, it's because your mother owns the company."
"You've been living in an empty villa all these years, eating delicacies, and being waited on hand and foot. You must have been so wronged."
Song Hui's face turned bright red from the scolding.
Qi An said coldly, "Your mother was too good to you, which is why you turned into a cold-blooded, selfish, and clueless idiot. Are all the women in the world dead? Why did you have to find someone who bullies your own sister?"
Song Hui's face flushed red, and he was speechless for a long time after being rebuked. He snorted coldly and slammed the door as he went back to his room.
Qi An was somewhat disappointed: "Ata, why didn't he continue to challenge me? Did I not perform well?"
She was even thinking that if she threw Mo Ningyu out, Song Hui would be so angry that he would follow her out of a huff.
Pshaw, coward!
Ata asked curiously, "Aren't you going to stop Song Hui and Mo Ningyu from being together?"
Qi An sneered: "Of course not. This time, even if they don't want to be together, they have to be tied together. True love is enough to abandon family, so they must be locked up."
"Besides, Zhang Yufen only asked us to save her daughter, but didn't mention her son. When doing business, you have to keep the customer's needs in mind."
The reason Zhang Yufen and Sisi ended up in such a state was that Mo Ningyu was merely a catalyst; the real culprit who drove them to despair was Song Hui.
Ata: ...That makes sense.
Song Hui started a hunger strike. He felt that his mother was just saying things in anger. She loved him so much, and she would definitely give in if he didn't eat.
Qi An was pleased with this and instructed the nanny, "From now on, just cook for me and Sisi. If there are any leftovers, just give them to Wangcai."
Wangcai is a dog that lives in the backyard of the villa.
The aunt didn't say anything more and simply nodded in agreement.
She had worked there for many years. The lady and young lady were both very kind, but Song Hui always acted superior and bossed her around.
In her opinion, Song Hui was spoiled rotten, and the lady had finally come to her senses.
Sisi didn't plead for her brother because she felt that her mother would eventually give in, given how much she loved him.
Actually, she wasn't wrong. A child's hunger strike could only threaten the mother. It's just a pity that Qi An isn't his biological mother, Zhang Yufen.
