"You...you actually dared to hit me!" Xu Xiuzhen really didn't expect that Li Anran would dare to hit her in public.
She's not someone to be trifled with!
With a gritted teeth, Xu Xiuzhen freed one hand and slapped Li Anran across the face.
Then... her hand, so clearly visible, brushed across Li Anran's chin.
Not even a fingernail touched Li Anran's face.
Enraged, Xu Xiuzhen fixed her fierce gaze on Su Mutou.
Fine! If we can't beat up the adulterer, then let's take it out on Su Mu!
Turning around, she straddled Su Mu's back like riding a horse, and then attacked Su Mu's hair with both hands in turn.
She grabbed Su Mu's hair and pulled it like she was plucking feathers from a chicken.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Xiuzhen's fingers were filled with withered, yellowed, and split hairs from Su Mu.
Occasionally, some will float upwards.
"Ah!" Su Mu screamed, clutching his head with both hands and curling up on the ground.
The excruciating, tearing pain made Su Mu cry out loud.
At that moment, a smile appeared on Xu Xiuzhen's face. She then plucked the feathers even faster.
However, the next second, a large hand grabbed her neck.
Before she could react, she was lifted up by a tremendous force and slammed hard onto the ground.
The impact on the back of her head made Xu Xiuzhen dizzy.
Before my eyes, several Li Anrans were spinning around.
She tried to get up, only to find that Li Anran's hand was still tightly gripping her neck.
The next moment, with a loud slap, her face stung with pain.
Before they could react, the other side of their face also fell.
She turned around and looked at Li Anran in disbelief.
Then another hard slap landed on her face.
Xu Xiuzhen, whose vision was no longer blurred, clearly saw the murderous intent in Li Anran's eyes.
It was the kind of murderous intent that made him want to strangle her to death.
Sure enough, the next second, Li Anran tightened his grip on her neck even more.
Moreover, the force is clearly increasing.
Xu Xiuzhen was terrified. She opened her mouth and said, "I... let... let me go."
Her labored breathing made her heart race.
She tried her best to pry Li Anran's hands off, but it was all in vain.
Xu Xiuzhen could even clearly hear her own heartbeat.
The pounding of her heart kept reminding her that she was about to die.
"I...I was wrong. You...let me go!" In order to avoid being strangled to death, she had no choice but to give in.
However, Li Anran seemed to be bewitched, not only showing no intention of letting go, but instead tightening his grip even more.
Xu Xiuzhen had to open her mouth wide, her tongue uncontrollably sticking out long.
Her vision began to blur, and the surrounding noise seemed to be isolated by a veil, no longer as clear as before.
She used her last bit of strength to pound on the large hand that was gripping her neck.
His body began to twist uncontrollably, and his feet kicked and thrashed wildly.
At this moment, she no longer had the strength to pound, and could only helplessly try to pry open the hand that was choking her throat.
This feeling of helplessness at the brink of death caused her tears to flow uncontrollably.
Just as Xu Xiuzhen's vision blurred to the point where she could no longer see clearly, the hand that was gripping her neck suddenly released its grip.
The air slid over her parched throat, filling her chest with pain.
She no longer cared about the pain; she opened her mouth and gasped for breath.
Having lived her whole life, this was the first time she had ever felt how precious air was.
Li Anran was pulled away by hospital security guards.
Xu Xiuzhen was saved by doctors.
She almost... almost lost her life here.
Opening her eyes, Xu Xiuzhen couldn't help but shiver when she saw Li Anran's eyes, which were still filled with murderous intent.
Because the hospital called the police, all three of them were eventually taken away.
From the moment she began giving her statement, Xu Xiuzhen kept shouting that she wanted to severely punish Li Anran, who had killed her.
But the man in the hat opposite her simply put a video in front of her.
"You started it, didn't you?"
Even if Xu Xiuzhen had a mouth all over her body, she wouldn't be able to refute the video.
After thinking for a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out, "But I almost died!"
Uncle Hat glanced at her: "You said it yourself, almost!"
The final result was that both sides were equally punished, with the latter receiving a three-day administrative detention.
Then, because Xu Xiuzhen had a heart condition, Uncle Hat released her that very night.
Xu Xiuzhen returned home disheveled and in a sorry state. Seeing the empty house, she collapsed to the ground.
As images of her family's past harmony played out in her mind like a movie, Xu Xiuzhen finally couldn't hold back her tears.
Overwhelmed with emotion, she slapped herself across the face.
"Xu Xiuzhen, Xu Xiuzhen! Zhou Chunhua was such a good daughter-in-law, how could you not cherish her? Now look what's happened, a perfectly good family has fallen apart!"
As her memories returned, Xu Xiuzhen recalled the day she discovered Liao Nanxing's affair with Su Mu.
It was here...
That day, Su Mu brought a fruit basket to her house.
Zhou Chunhua warmly welcomed Su Mu in, pouring tea and peeling fruit for him.
But while Su Mu was responding to Zhou Chunhua, his eyes never left Liao Nanxing.
At that time, Xu Xiuzhen became more cautious.
When it was noon, Zhou Chunhua went out to buy groceries, saying she wanted to cook a nice meal for Su Mu.
At that time, Zhou Chunhua treated Su Mu as if she were her own daughter. She was eager to bring out all the good things she could find.
Su Mu also kept calling her godmother.
But no sooner had Zhou Chunhua left than Su Mu sat down next to Liao Nanxing.
Su Mu asked some professional questions, and Liao Nanxing answered them casually.
As the two were talking, Su Mu suddenly said he needed to find some information and pulled Liao Nanxing into the study.
As soon as the door closed, she quietly went over and listened close to the door.
Before long, she vaguely heard sounds from inside that made her blush.
At first, it was just panting.
Later, the squelching sound made it clear to anyone who had been there before what was going on!
Actually, she did consider stopping them at the time.
But just as she was about to knock on the door, that brat Nini rushed out of the house.
Looking at this brat, she was furious.
At that time, she felt that her son's good genes had been cut short by Zhou Chunhua!
At that time, she was like a woman possessed, thinking that if Su Mu could get pregnant with Nan Xing's child, it might be a boy who could carry on the family line!
So... her good genes were passed on, and the Liao family line was continued.
The thought of one day holding her own big, healthy grandson made her tacitly approve of what happened in the study, and then she walked away with Nini in her arms.
But everything that is happening now is telling her that from that moment on, she was wrong, terribly wrong!
