Chapter 808 Whipping Wen Qingyi
When the butler actually handed the whip to him, a look of despair immediately welled up in Wen Qingyi's eyes.
She knew she was finished.
This time, she had truly crossed a line.
When Gong Lian took the whip, everyone involuntarily took a step back, afraid that the whip in his hand might hurt them.
The man raised his hand and slapped Wen Qingyi hard across the face!
"Ah—" Wen Qingyi's heart-wrenching screams echoed through every corner of the Gong family villa, shocking almost everyone present.
Many members of the Gong family have worked their way up from the housekeeper to the present day, and naturally they have witnessed the entire process of Wen Qingyi and Gong Lian's relationship, from dating to engagement to their current separation!
When Wen Qingyi was lashed down by his whip, the pain was so intense that she felt as if her skin was being torn open. She couldn't even shed a tear, and could only crawl from the ground to his feet, looking up at him pleadingly, "Gong Lian, please stop hitting me. I really know I was wrong..."
The reason she dared to disobey her agreement with Gong Lian was because of their past relationship, and she thought that even if she was discovered, he would still have mercy on her.
Now, not only has he not felt any pity for her, but he has also started to discipline her according to family rules!
Did he really have no feelings for her at all?
"You know you're wrong? Are you sure?" Gong Lian didn't believe her endless lies: "If you really knew you were wrong, would you still have gone against my decision? If you really knew you were wrong, would you still have made such a mistake that you knew was impossible but still insisted on doing it?!"
It has to be said that Gong Lian really understands Wen Qingyi, and he saw right through all of Wen Qingyi's little thoughts.
Even the reason why she dared to do this was directly revealed.
Wen Qingyi's expression changed slightly, and she hugged his long legs even tighter: "No! Gong Lian, I really know I was wrong, please believe me, okay? Just believe me this once... just this once..."
If he's willing to believe her just this once, she'll definitely repent and start anew!
As long as he gives her a chance...
"When I brought you home from Xiangshan Hospital, didn't I give you a chance?" Gong Lian stared down at her, his face cold. "We agreed that if you worked as a maid for a hundred days, we would get back together and never contact Xu Chen again. What did you do?"
"Not only did you fail to keep our agreement, you also tried to run away! You're trying to use Xu Chen to get you out of the Gong family villa so you can regain your freedom, aren't you!"
In reality, he didn't imprison her; he simply kept her as a maid at the Gong family villa. She could have told him directly, but instead, she secretly called Xu Chen behind his back, asking him to come and rescue her!
How could he not be furious?
He got back together with her only to stay by Sang Ruo's side; it was a choice he was forced to make, but that's no reason for her to deceive and disobey him like this!
Wen Qingyi felt his accusations were too harsh: "No! Gong Lian, you've really misunderstood. I never thought that way. When I called him, I really just wanted to vent to him. After all, we only just talked last night..."
"Shut up!" Before she could finish speaking, Gong Lian abruptly interrupted her, saying, "I don't want to hear anything about me from you anymore! Don't you like to complain to Xu Chen? Then pay back the money you owe him yourself! Why are you coming to me crying?"
They had agreed to complete the 100-day task, and although he was drunk last night, that was no reason for her to go to Xu Chen!
When will this fickle woman realize that boundaries between men and women need to be maintained?!
"Butler!" Gong Lian tried to move his long legs, but they were held too tightly by her and he couldn't move. He could only ask the butler to come over and pull her away: "Pull her away from me. The family discipline hasn't been completed yet."
He must continue to enforce the family rules, otherwise, given Wen Qingyi's personality, she will never learn her lesson.
She needs to be made to suffer a severe pain before she realizes she was wrong.
Upon hearing this, the butler also felt a pang of pity and began to persuade him: "Mr. Gong, Miss Wen has just recovered from a serious illness. I think her body cannot withstand such whipping. Please show some mercy."
He wasn't trying to speak up for Wen Qingyi, but Wen Qingyi was already covered in bruises from his beating. The back of her clothes was soaked in bright red blood, revealing horrifying whip marks.
"What? Butler, even you're taking her side?" Gong Lian suddenly raised his head, staring intently at him: "Even you think what she did was right? Am I wrong?"
Otherwise, why would the steward, who has always been loyal to him, also speak up for Wen Qingyi?
Seeing that he had misunderstood, the butler quickly explained, "No, I didn't say you were wrong. I just think that the punishment of whipping is a bit too harsh for a woman."
If Wen Qingyi were a man, he would definitely choose to observe coldly and not say a word.
But Wen Qingyi is a woman, and Mr. Gong's ex-fiancée. Although the engagement has been dissolved, if they are to be together in the future, then every lash he strikes will shatter their hard-won relationship!
"Not heavy, at least not for a fickle woman like her," Gong Lian said calmly. "Quickly, pull her away, or I'll have to say it a third time."
Since he had said so, the butler had no choice but to comply.
Ignoring Wen Qingyi's struggles, the butler dragged her away from Gong Lian's side.
Even though Wen Qingyi used all her strength to hug his long legs, the difference in strength between men and women was naturally too great, and she was no match for the butler's forceful pulling.
As the whipping continued to fall and Wen Qingyi's pitiful screams spread, it finally stopped completely after half an hour.
Gong Lian looked at Wen Qingyi, who was almost on the verge of death, bent his long legs, squatted down beside her, and asked, "From now on, will you still dare to go against my decisions? Will you still dare to disregard my words?"
Everyone has a tendency to take chances, but hers was clearly too much. If she isn't taught a lesson, how will she realize her predicament?
After all, she's his personal maid now, not his fiancée!
Is she trying to get back into his life by climbing into his bed?
She's not qualified.
"I won't dare again." Wen Qingyi's pink lips uttered these words with difficulty: "I will never dare again..."
She truly realized that in his heart she was now just a maid, not the fiancée she once was.
