Ye Hua, who was hiding in the courtyard watching the commotion, couldn't help but shudder, having a bad feeling.
Ye Qingqing sneered; she had been waiting for those words!
"Did Ye Hua tell you to bully Xiao Tong?"
"Yes... Ye Hua took a lot of candy, saying he'd give us some if we hit Ye Tong. He always does that," Hu Zhihong said loudly.
The other children who were watching the commotion also testified, saying that they had all been misled by Ye Hua, which was why they did wrong, and they only hoped that Ye Qingqing would not blame them.
Shen Yanhong's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "Children don't know any better, it's normal for them to make noise. Qingqing, don't be angry, I'll definitely teach Xiaohua a lesson later."
"I wouldn't dare trouble you!"
Ye Qingqing gave her a cold look, turned her head to look at the courtyard, and shouted, "Get out here!"
"Qingqing..." Shen Yanhong called out urgently, but received no response from Ye Qingqing. She was extremely anxious and quickly twisted her body against Ye Zhiguo.
Ye Zhiguo was also worried that Ye Qingqing would hurt his son. After thinking for a while, he endured the pain and went to the yard. He pulled Ye Hua, who was trying to slip away, out and slapped him without saying a word.
“You’re the older brother, yet you not only don’t protect your younger brother outside, but you also let others bully him… How have I been teaching you all this time…”
Ye Zhiguo slapped her several times, looking at her with a disappointed expression. In fact, he knew exactly how much he was going to hit her. He looked fierce, but he wouldn't hurt anyone. He was just putting on an act for Ye Qingqing and the neighbors.
Ye Hua screamed in pain as she was beaten. Although Shen Yanhong felt sorry for her, she could only endure it and even helped Ye Zhiguo scold, "If you don't take good care of your younger brother in the future, I'll have your dad break your legs!"
The neighbors all nodded in agreement, feeling that Ye Zhiguo was indeed a responsible and good father, while Ye Qingqing was too mean. She was not only disrespectful to her father and stepmother, but also unfriendly to her stepson. What family would dare to marry such a girl?
Ye Qingqing felt a tightness in her chest. If she continued to argue with Ye Zhiguo and Shen Yanhong after their charade, she would definitely lose face.
Although she didn't care about her reputation, she didn't know if Lu Mo did.
She only realized this after she calmed down. After coming back, she only thought about marrying Lu Mo, but she didn't really understand Lu Mo and had no idea what kind of girl this man liked.
Gentle as water?
Or perhaps it's a passionate fire?
Or was she a well-educated and refined young lady from a prominent family?
Ye Qingqing was uncertain. After her rebirth, all she wanted was to live a life of pleasure and revenge, repaying kindness and avenging wrongs. Her own happiness was the most important thing. As for others... if she didn't like them, they could just get lost!
But the question is... does Lu Mo like her like this?
With some hesitation in her mind, Ye Qingqing lost interest in punishing the scumbags and decided to slowly try to get Lu Mo to tell her what his taste was.
Of course... if it just so happens that her type is the best, it means that she and Lu Mo are a match made in heaven.
If there are some deviations, it's not a big deal; we can adjust them gradually!
Anyway, she's made up her mind about Lu Mo for life!
Ye Qingqing felt a sense of relief, but her mind returned to the present problem. She glanced at the crying Ye Hua and said coldly, "I warned you at noon that if you bully Xiao Tong again, you'd be sent to sleep on the street!"
Shen Yanhong's scalp tightened, and she looked at Ye Zhiguo with concern.
A cold glint flashed in Ye Zhiguo's eyes, but he was extremely shrewd and would not show his dissatisfaction, especially in front of so many neighbors. He had to play the role of a loving father.
We've been working on this for seventeen years; we can't let it all fall apart in the last three years.
