Xie Li was taken aback, not expecting this: "I'm sorry, but I was only trying to save people..."
But the more Ding Huizhu thought about it, the angrier she became. Suddenly, she turned around, snatched a feather duster from the maid next to her, and lashed it hard at Xie Li.
She had been holding back her anger for too long, and when she pulled out the cigarette, she felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.
With a flick of his wrist, he delivered another powerful slap!
Xie Li neither dodged nor yielded. Seeing that Ding Huizhu had already struck him three times and was still not stopping, he couldn't hold back any longer and grabbed the feather duster, saying, "Please stop now."
She allowed Ding Huizhu to vent her anger by taking three breaths because she had taken Jiang Qingyu with her, which had indeed caused Ding Huizhu trouble.
That doesn't mean she really did anything wrong. Ding Huizhu's insistence on hitting him was somewhat unsportsmanlike.
Xie Li easily took the feather duster from Ding Huizhu's hand and tossed it to the maid, saying, "Here you go."
In that instant, a string in Ding Huizhu's mind snapped completely. Her blood rushed to her head, her fingers trembled, and her eyes burned red with anger.
How could she be so disobedient and unfilial, embarrassing her mother in front of so many servants...
Unable to bear it any longer, Ding Huizhu strode forward, grabbed Xie Li's arm, and slapped him hard across the face.
"I'll teach you to be disobedient! I'll teach you to be lawless! If I don't beat you to death today, I'm not a Ding!"
Embarrassment and anger mingled in her heart, and Old Mrs. Ding's words echoed in her ears again: "It is only natural for parents to discipline their children! You don't punish such a disobedient and unfilial child, you even protect her. Do you want her to ruin the Xie family, the Ding family, and Ziyuan and Zian?"
"That disobedient and unfilial brat deserves to be beaten to death!"
In her fury, Ding Huizhu used all her strength in that slap; if it had landed directly, her face would definitely have swelled up.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats when a loud, obsequious voice rang out: "Madam, I've got the ruler. You can discipline the Second Miss with peace of mind now!"
Before anyone could process what was happening, there was a loud "smack," a sound that made everyone wince.
Immediately following, the loud-voiced man cried out in pain, "Ouch!"
Upon closer inspection, everyone realized that it was Sister Wan who had been beaten.
The other person's rough, calloused face was swollen and red, even showing traces of blood, which showed how hard the slap had been.
Mrs. Wan was completely stunned. Her head was ringing from the blow. She had just entered the living room and suddenly found herself in the center of the living room, where she was met with the Madam's slap.
The burning pain on her face made her unable to bear it any longer, and the large ruler she was holding fell to the ground with a "clang".
However, no one was paying attention to the ruler anymore; everyone was confused. What was going on?
Butler Wu, who was standing aside preparing to step forward to stop them, saw things clearly.
In that instant, Xie Li moved so fast that only a blur could be seen. He grabbed Wan Sao, who was standing at the gate, and handed her over to Ding Huizhu to slap.
Butler Wu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and his gaze toward Xie Li held even more awe.
Xie Li released his grip and glanced indifferently at the large steel ruler. Was this the one they had brought to deal with her?
She had just seen Sister Wan come in with a large ruler, her voice full of schadenfreude, so she simply pulled Sister Wan over to take the slap.
This person has repeatedly tried to sow discord between Madam Xie and others. Does he really think she's easy to talk to?
