Shen Yunsheng recognized the woman at a glance as her sister-in-law, Xiao Xuemei. She was not yet thirty, but she looked like a weathered old woman. What was most heartbreaking was that there were three hideous scars on the back of her right hand, which were obviously cut with a knife.
"Xuemei, my child!" When Luo saw her eldest daughter in this state, tears streamed down her face.
Although Xiao Wenjing was angry, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw his daughter in such a state.
Shen Yunsheng and his wife quickly stepped forward to support Luo Shi and comforted her, saying, "Mother, let's go inside first and talk about it."
Once inside, everyone took their seats.
Xiao Xuemei was already sobbing uncontrollably. She deeply regretted not heeding her parents' advice and insisting on marrying Meng Xin.

When Shen Yunsheng saw her sister-in-law's arm, she gasped and turned deathly pale. She had never seen such a horrific wound, and an indescribable sense of fear and pity welled up inside her.
Is this what they call "love-struck"? To be willing to endure such torment for a man is truly pathetic and terrifying!
Shen Yunsheng bit her lip tightly, her eyes flashing with anger.
She secretly resolved that if she ever encountered a similar situation, she would never be as weak as her sister-in-law; she would bravely resist and protect herself.
When Xiao Xuemei realized she couldn't hide the truth any longer, she knelt down in front of her parents with a thud.
"Father and Mother! Your daughter is unfilial and has caused you worry."
