"Wrong? What's wrong?" Wang Xiahe had a bad feeling, her voice trembling slightly: "Old Wang, explain yourself, what's wrong?"
Granny Wang dared not look at her, and only after being pressed by her did she stammer, "Big Foot is not in this room."
Wang Xiahe was stunned. "What do you mean he's not in this room? If he's not here, then who is the man in the room?"
Granny Wang hesitated and dared not speak.
Yu Yao curled her lips into a cold smile and kindly explained, "She wanted to tell you that the person you mentioned who got drunk and went to the wrong room isn't here. As for the man in my room..."
"It's me!"
Lu Ze walked out of the room and stood beside Yu Yao.
When Wang Xiahe saw Lu Ze, her vision went black: "You're in this room, but what about Xiao Zhen... No, no, you can't!"
Upon realizing a possibility, Wang Xiahe's legs went weak, and she almost fell over.
Yu Defu quickly helped her up, asking, "Xia He, are you alright?"
Ignoring everything else, Wang Xiahe squeezed Yu Defu's hand, her eyes reddening, "Old Yu, quick, take me to another room. Quick!"
Yu Yao finally realized that Wang Xiahe had failed in her scheme and was now reaping the consequences.
She wondered why Wang Dajiao hadn't come yesterday; it turned out she'd gone to the wrong room, making her wait in vain.
Wang Xiahe was in a hurry to check on Wan Xiaozhen's condition, and Yu Yao, seeing that there was something interesting to see, pulled Yu Yao along and followed.
As Yu Yao approached the room door, the first thing she saw was the flowerpot by the door.
The main issue is that out of all the rooms in the Wang family's house, only this room has a potted plant at its door, and if she remembers correctly, this potted plant was placed at her room's door yesterday.
In other words, someone noticed the oddity of the flowerpot and switched it, which is why Wang Dajiao went into the wrong room.
Not only did Yu Yao see the flowerpot, but Wang Xiahe also saw it. After taking a few deep breaths, she finally had the strength to push open the door.
The moment Wang Xiahe saw the scene in the room, her vision went black, and tears streamed down her face.
So the groans she heard from Xiao Zhen yesterday weren't the sounds of pleasure from taking drugs, but rather the sounds of being tortured.
Realizing this, Wang Xiahe shrank back and fainted.
It was only thanks to Yu Defu, who was standing nearby, that she was able to catch her and keep pinching her philtrum before Wang Xiahe woke up.
After waking up, Wang Xiahe stumbled over and took a coat to put on Wan Xiaozhen, who was sitting blankly at the head of the bed, her clothes disheveled.
Seeing the wounds on her body, Wang Xiahe burst into tears and cried out, "Xiao Zhen, my Xiao Zhen, you've suffered so much..."
Wan Xiaozhen only came to her senses when she heard Wang Xiahe's voice.
Her eyes swept over Lu Ze and Yu Yao, and she froze, throwing herself into Wang Xiahe's arms, calling out "Mom" repeatedly.
To be honest, Wan Xiaozhen's condition was rather pitiful. Her hair was disheveled, her cheeks were swollen, and her clothes were torn, revealing injuries in various places.
But Yu Yao showed no sympathy whatsoever.
The thought that this was the same tactic they used against her made her eyes grow even colder.
Lu Ze put his arm around Yu Yao's shoulder to comfort her, but his eyes were even colder.
When Granny Wang saw Wan Xiaozhen's miserable state, she didn't think much of it. After all, men are a bit rough and beating their wives isn't a big deal. What man doesn't beat his wife?
She was a little worried that Wang Xiahe would overreact and hurt her son.
Sure enough, the next second, after calming her daughter down, Wang Xiahe glared fiercely at Wang Dajiao, who was fast asleep to the side, and slapped her several times across the face.
"I'll teach you to bully my Xiao Zhen! I'll teach you to come to the wrong house! I'll teach you to bully my Xiao Zhen! I'll teach you to come to the wrong house!"
"Oh dear, Second Aunt, you can't hit her, you can't hit her!" Granny Wang rushed over to stop her. "Besides, our Da Jiao was just following your plan. If something goes wrong, you can't blame Da Jiao entirely."
Wang Dajiao was slapped several times, and her face swelled up instantly. When she saw the scene inside the room, she instantly sobered up.
When Granny Wang saw that he was awake, she winked at her son and said, "Quickly, son, quickly explain to your aunt that you didn't do it on purpose."
"Yes, yes, Auntie, I didn't mean to. The flowerpot was right by the door, I don't know how it got like this. You can't blame me."
Wang Dajiao completely absolved herself of any responsibility.
Actually, he noticed something was wrong as soon as Wan Xiaozhen opened her mouth yesterday.
Thinking of the Wang family's sumptuous food and wine, and their huge stone house, he gritted his teeth and decided to play along, covering Wan Xiaozhen's mouth tightly.
Hearing him say that made Wang Xiahe even more resentful.
Why is the flowerpot, which was clearly at Yu Yao's door, in Xiao Zhen's room?
Wang Xiahe looked at Yu Yao with a venomous gaze, pointed at Yu Yao and said sharply, "It was you, wasn't it? You switched the flowerpots. You have such a cruel heart. You're the one who harmed Xiao Zhen."
Yu Yao found it amusing. "Me, vicious? Do you want to hear what nonsense you're spouting? The one who truly harmed your daughter is you, your daughter, and your greed and viciousness. Everything that's happening now is the result of your many evil deeds, and you're reaping what you sowed."
Wang Xiahe couldn't accept this result and refused to admit that she was wrong. She rushed up to slap Yu Yao, but Lu Ze grabbed her wrist.
Upon seeing this, Yu Defu rushed over and pleaded with Lu Ze in a gentle voice, "Lu Ze, I beg you, she's heavily pregnant, please don't hurt her."
Yu Yao also said, "Don't touch her, lest we get extorted. Who knows if this is yet another of their schemes?"
Lu Ze has a military rank and cannot take action.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Lu Ze used a strange finger technique to press several acupoints on Wang Xiahe's arm, which had been used to hit her, and Wang Xiahe's arm lost sensation and could not move at all.
What did you do to my arm?
Yu Defu glanced nervously at her stomach, "Lu Ze."
Lu Ze released Wang Xiahe. "I don't hit women, but that doesn't mean I allow you to hurt Yu Yao. This method won't hurt you, but your hand will lose feeling. As long as you use it, you'll be fine in three days. But if you try to do anything strenuous, it will hurt like being pricked by needles or chopped by an axe."
Wang Xiahe refused to believe it and raised her arm, intending to slap Yu Yao when she wasn't paying attention.
But as soon as she raised her arm, she let out a bloodcurdling scream, as if a pig was being slaughtered. She broke out in a cold sweat from the pain and dared not do anything more.
Yu Yao had only ever seen this kind of acupressure technique on TV before and thought it was fake. She was surprised to find that it actually existed and became interested. She decided to ask Lu Ze if he could teach her when she got back.
At this moment, Granny Wang interrupted the tense atmosphere and looked at Wang Xiahe ingratiatingly: "Second Aunt, what's done is done. Xiao Zhen is now a slut and it's impossible for her to marry someone else. Our Da Jiao is not married yet, so why not marry him? That way, she'll have a place to go."
Wang Xiahe's chest heaved with anger, and upon hearing Wang Pozi's words, she became even more furious and spat.
"Pah! You wish! Look at your son, what kind of person is he? He wants to marry my daughter? Don't even dream about it."
