Those bruises were still fresh, and they would grimace at the slightest touch.
Shen Miao gritted her teeth. Who beat the children like this? When she left, the children were clean. Who did this?
"Who hit him?" Shen Miao suddenly appeared with a gloomy face.
The children were startled. They looked at each other, pursed their lips, and remained silent.
Shen Miao looked at them and said, "You won't talk? Then I'll go find your father."
"No!" the children cried out to Shen Miao. "Don't look for Daddy. I'll tell you, this is what we left behind when we fought with the little beastmen in the Beast Realm. They hit us, and we hurt them too."
Shen Miao frowned even more. So many bruises proved that the fighting was very frequent. She had taught the children not to fight with others easily unless the other party attacked first.
Under Shen Miao's repeated questioning, Da Bao finally said vaguely, "They were saying bad things about Mother, and we couldn't stand it, so we fought with them."
"What did you say?"
When Shen Miao asked this question, she suddenly remembered what Li Qiu had told her. She understood that it was just a child in the family who heard the adults talking and then imitated them, showing off in front of the other children.
But the kids weren't going to back down, and before long, they probably started fighting.
After figuring out the cause and effect, Shen Miao was furious. It was one thing for those people to talk about her, but they couldn't tolerate them talking about her baby!
After thinking it over all night, Shen Miao decided to teach those people a lesson.
The next day, after breakfast, Shen Miao did not go out, nor did the children go out to play. However, Qing Chen was called out by the cat beastman early in the morning.
Shen Miao walked over to the children and asked gently, "Why didn't you go out to play with your friends today?"
"No, they always say unpleasant things, it's so annoying." The kids shook their heads in refusal.
Before Shen Miao returned, the children would go out every day to refute the little beastmen's words again and again, but now that Shen Miao is back, they don't go out anymore.
Fighting with them is less worthwhile than spending more time with Mom.
Shen Miao thought for a moment and said, "Go play, Mother will go with you. You should keep in touch with your friends, or you will have no friends."
The children couldn't understand the meaning behind Shen Miao's words, but when they heard that Shen Miao wanted to play with them, they jumped up happily.
Shen Miao was playing with her four cubs in the beast realm when the gossipy beastmen quickly gathered together and started pointing and whispering about her.
"Look, he ran away for a month and came back. I wonder what he did for the past month."
"I heard she found another orc, a rather old one. I don't know what she was thinking. Sigh, poor Qingchen and his little ones."
"Sigh, that's just the kind of person she is. Don't forget how she got together with Qingchen in the first place. Qingchen was really unlucky."
The little ones were so angry that their faces turned red, and their hands were clenched into fists.
Ugh, these orcs are so annoying! How could they talk to Mother like that? They're so irritating!
Shen Miao walked over calmly and asked with a smile, "Are you talking about me?"
The orcs looked at each other in disbelief. How could there be such a person who did such a thing and then acted as if nothing had happened? Tsk tsk, how shameless!
A feisty female beast replied, "Yes, we're talking about you. What, are we wrong? Are you going to cause us trouble?"
"No, you're right, I was indeed away for a month, but my Qingchen knows that. And you're all here, standing up for whom?" Shen Miao asked with a smile.
The orc blurted out, "But Qingchen doesn't know you went out to steal someone."
Shen Miao's smile vanished inch by inch, her expression turning inscrutable as she stared at the female beast: "So, this is what you say to your cub at home too?"
The female beast, not understanding why she asked that, said somewhat impatiently, "So what if I said it or not? Are you going to hit me? You can't beat us all. All the beastmen on our side have already told us."
Some orcs had already sensed something was wrong and quickly distanced themselves: "No, no, I didn't say that, don't drag me into this."
Some, oblivious to the situation, even smugly admitted it: "That's right, we've already said it, we just can't stand you. You're such a promiscuous female beast, having Qingchen, you still want to go find other male beasts, you're utterly rotten."
The words had barely left her lips when, with a sharp crack, the female beast's head was struck to the side. She clutched her swollen cheek, her eyes wide with disbelief. "You actually hit me?"
Shen Miao leisurely withdrew her hand and nodded, saying, "That's right, I hit you. This mouth of yours is too foul, it's useless, you can cut it off."
These orcs are the ones spreading rumors in the Beast Realm. They have an innate ability to distort the truth, and they are both foolish and unable to see the situation clearly.
So after being hit by Shen Miao, the orc screamed and pounced on her, also wanting to hit Shen Miao's face.
Shen Miao restrained all her movements, tied her hands behind her back, and used her other hand to slap her face dozens of times, until her face swelled up like a pig's head.
"Are you satisfied now? If not, I'll continue." Shen Miao threw the person on the ground and glanced at the other gossipy women huddled together.
The sight sent a chill down the spines of those men, who involuntarily shrank back.
That's terrible. That person looked so pitiful. Shen Miao is really ruthless. If she could treat that female beast like that, would she treat them the same way?
For a moment, they shivered and couldn't utter a single word.
Shen Miao didn't make things difficult for them, and simply said, "Now, each of you slap yourselves twenty times. If you don't want to do it yourselves, I can do it for you."
"By what right?" an orc asked, mustering his courage.
Shen Miao grinned, "You guys can't beat me."
The women were almost brought to tears, but they had no choice. They were no match for Shen Miao. If they were to fight her, they could go easy on her and hold back. But if Shen Miao were to fight her, it would not only be humiliating, but she would also be disfigured.
After figuring it out, the group raised their hands in humiliation and began slapping themselves repeatedly.
The sounds of slapping continued incessantly. Shen Miao listened without blinking and reminded him, "I'm keeping track. Don't try to get away with it. If I find out, I'll beat you twice as much."
One of them deliberately slowed down, but had to grit his teeth and keep up.
The surrounding beastmen were stunned. They had never seen anything like it before. Fighting themselves, and fighting so hard—wasn't that insane?
However, after hearing someone explain the cause and effect, I felt that these people really deserved it.
To talk so enthusiastically about something without any evidence, and even harass someone's child, is utterly despicable.
