Chapter 63: Jiaojiao wants to commit suicide! Then you die!
Li Jiaojiao was slapped twice on the left side, and five finger marks appeared.
Su Luo studied it calmly and thought, "There's no slap on the right side. It's asymmetrical and doesn't look good."
He raised his hand and slapped Li Jiaojiao again, sighing, "The swelling is not symmetrical!"
"Pa!" Another slap!
"Ah!!" Li Jiaojiao covered her face and screamed.
Su Luo then looked at her equally swollen left and right cheeks with satisfaction and nodded, "Now they're symmetrical, Master. Look, aren't they the same?"
Master Wen had no idea how much injustice Luo'er had suffered in the Marquis' Mansion that forced her to slap Li Jiaojiao in public. Moreover, Li Jiaojiao had framed Luo'er once before, and it was unknown how many times she had bullied Luo'er behind her back.
Moreover, this bastard Zhou Yan actually sided with Li Jiaojiao.
It can be seen how much injustice Luo'er suffered in the Marquis' Mansion.
"Your fighting skills are pretty good." Wen Zixi nodded in praise.
Mo Jin suddenly spoke up, mockingly saying, "What's so good about it? You need to practice a few more slaps."
Su Luo's heart skipped a beat. Is this... Mo Jin actively supporting her?
Then doesn't she have to take advantage of the situation quickly?
"Okay, listen to the Regent and practice your skills." Su Luo rubbed her wrist and looked down at Li Jiaojiao, who was about to cry after being beaten. "Since you want to kneel, then kneel and take the beating. I am beating you according to the Regent's order. You have to accept it whether you want to or not."
Li Jiaojiao panicked instantly, covering her cheeks. Just as she was about to stand up, Su Luo held her shoulders and said, "If you like kneeling, kneel down. Kneel for a while longer."
"Pa!" Su Luo smiled and slapped her on the left cheek!
"Pa——" The slap was loud, a slap on the right cheek.
"Su Luo, are you crazy?" Zhou Yan roared!
The next moment, Zhou Yan rushed over regardless of everything and grabbed Su Luo's wrist!
The next moment, Mo Jin made a move, this time faster than Wen Zixi, and kicked Zhou Yan away directly!
Zhou Yan felt a pain in his abdomen. He looked at Mo Jin in fear and disbelief. Shocked and angry, he said angrily, "Regent, this is my family affair! There's no need for you to interfere, right?"
"This is official business." Mo Jin smiled coldly.
Wen Zixi added, "Li Jiaojiao is guilty of smoking a prohibited cigarette, and slandering others in front of me is an even greater crime. Someone, come here."
The next moment, the government office brought the waiter and the shopkeeper, as well as some servants from the silver shop and a stack of bills.
"Li Jiaojiao started buying tobacco from the silver shop three years ago. The other bills are too old to be verified. In the past six months alone, we found out that she bought two kilograms of tobacco every month, a total of sixteen kilograms. This is the purchase receipt signed by her, in duplicate." The government office said.
The shopkeeper, assessing the situation and perhaps wanting to atone for his mistake, nodded rapidly, "Right, right! And the shop has a rule that receipts must be in duplicate. Bringing a receipt with you for five or more purchases can exchange it for two taels of tobacco. So she must have some. I suggest you search her place; you're sure to find something!"
Li Jiaojiao's face was swollen and painful from being beaten, and her face turned paler and paler when she heard these accusations.
The government office handled the case impartially, interrogating the servants and waiters who were tied up: "Do you know Li Jiaojiao? Is she a regular customer? Has she bought anything from her?"
"It's her. She's quite wealthy and one of our biggest customers at the silver shop."
After the waiter finished speaking, the kneeling Li Jiaojiao completely lost the strength to stand up!
She simply slumped to the ground, tears streaming down her face as she tried to speak. She wept to Zhou Yan in grievance and despair, "My Lord, I..."
Zhou Yan's expression was complicated. First, she protected Li Jiaojiao at all costs, angry that Su Luo dared to hit her. Later, she was shocked and felt unbelievable!
Then what happened to him defending Li Jiaojiao before?
It's become a joke! ?
hateful!
Why did Li Jiaojiao embarrass him time and time again!
Zhou Yan's face fell instantly, and he angrily said, "Li Jiaojiao, I always defend you and fight for you, and you use me like this?"
"No, no, no!" Li Jiaojiao was so frightened when she heard this that she instantly went limp. With her face covered in slap marks, she walked over and weakly grabbed Zhou Yan, "Cousin, you have to believe me, I really... I really am not that kind of person..."
Li Jiaojiao cried very pitifully. Her face was hurt so much that every time she moved her mouth to speak, the wound would be pulled, and there was blood at the corner of her lips.
She stared at Zhou Yan and pleaded, "Cousin, what kind of person am I? Haven't you understood it all these years..."
Zhou Yan took a deep breath. Don't tell me, don't tell me, before he got married, Li Jiaojiao was submissive and gentle to him, so kind that she would rescue stray kittens and was devoted to him...
Ever since getting married, she has been making mistakes and having bad tempers. Maybe she is jealous?
As expected, women are all jealous! Even Li Jiaojiao is no exception.
How he wanted to find someone who was kind, gentle and not jealous at all. He was tired of the struggles in the harem. He had watched his mother fighting for favor with others since he was a child. Was his woman going to become like this now?
Zhou Yan felt disappointed, upset and annoyed. He felt cheated and had received the wrong goods. He grabbed Li Jiaojiao's wrist tightly, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
In Li Jiaojiao's panic, he let go of her hand!
"No, cousin, don't do this to me!" Li Jiaojiao almost fell to the ground after being thrown away. Tears streamed down her swollen face as she begged, "I love you so much... I have always listened to you. You are my best... brother..."
Zhou Yan gritted his teeth with a cold expression, tightened his cheeks, and ignored her pleas!
Li Jiaojiao had never seen Zhou Yan so cold-hearted before. She suddenly panicked, bursting into tears and looking sincerely repentant. She carefully pulled Zhou Yan again, "Brother...Brother Yan..."
"Let go." Zhou Yan said with a tense expression and gritted teeth.
"I won't let go!" Li Jiaojiao couldn't stop crying
"I, said, it!" Zhou Yan gritted his teeth, "Let me go!"
"Wuwuwu!" Li Jiaojiao tugged at his sleeve tightly, begging bitterly, "I was wrong, is that not enough? Is there no trust between us at all?"
"The ironclad facts are before us, and there's witnesses and physical evidence." Zhou Yan was practically worried to death, and said angrily, "How can I trust you?"
Li Jiaojiao sobbed non-stop, biting her lip and saying, "Can't evidence be fabricated? Can't witnesses be bribed?"
"As long as my cousin believes that I didn't do it, isn't that enough? Even if I was framed and put in jail, even if I really was in jail, as long as Brother Yan believes in me, it doesn't matter if the whole world misunderstands me!"
Zhou Yan was so angry that he could not help but roll his eyes and take a deep breath. His chest was burning with anger and it hurt!
He held back his anger for a long time, so as not to yell at Li Jiaojiao in public. He almost gritted his teeth and said:
"Li Jiaojiao! You've made me a joke!"
"How can this be a joke?" Li Jiaojiao was stunned and stood there in a daze. She even desperately pulled out the sword hanging from Zhou Yan's waist and put it across her neck, threateningly.
"Cousin, don't you trust me?"
"Then go to hell!" Qin Zhengyu was speechless. "I can't stand women like this! How could your sister be such a person?"
"Yeah, he's still being stubborn even after being caught. Not only does he refuse to admit it, but he's also throwing tantrums and threatening to commit suicide." Passersby who stopped to watch pointed at Li Jiaojiao and said.
