Chapter 24 Can't even manage a woman
Next, he kept whipping her back.
Shen Qianyu shed tears naturally.
From childhood to adulthood, Shen Qianyu had probably never resisted like she did today, so she had never been beaten.
But today...
She experienced pain for the first time.
Beyond the physical, it's mostly psychological.
She wanted to beg her mother to stop hitting her, but she knew that if she did, they would not only not listen, but would hit her even harder.
If she could, she really wouldn't want to be born into such a family.
She was whipped countless times, but being a woman, her body was weaker, and the pain caused her to faint.
When she woke up again, she was already in her own bed, but even the slightest movement caused her unbearable pain.
She wanted to go to the bathroom, but when she tried to get out of bed, she fell off the bed, which hurt her even more, and she didn't dare to move at all.
Perhaps because the door was closed, the noise she made didn't elicit a response from Fang Hui and Shen Jiacheng.
Shen Qianyu knew she couldn't count on them, and since she couldn't stand up, she kept crawling forward.
The more I climbed, the more excruciating the pain became.
The feeling of having one's flesh torn apart was almost unbearable for Shen Qianyu.
Shen Qianyu somehow got to the restroom, sat on the toilet, and was panting heavily.
She was covered in sweat, which mixed with the blood from her torn wounds. The pain was so intense that she didn't know what to bite to relieve it.
Shen Qianyu didn't sleep well all night.
After finally getting Fang Hui to wake up, she went to Shen Qianyu's room to apply ointment to her.
Shen Qianyu was very stubborn and didn't want her to apply it.
Fang Hui wiped away her tears: "Qianyu, I know you're very angry and you're blaming your mother, but I can't do anything about it! I really can't bring myself to hit you. If your father hits you, he'll hit you harder, and you'll be in even more serious condition."
With so many people watching our family, Mom had no choice!
Shen Qianyu didn't say a word.
"Mom didn't sleep well all night. Just thinking about how I beat you makes me..."
Fang Hui turned her head away, seemingly not wanting Shen Qianyu to see her cry.
Shen Qianyu felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She believed Fang Hui was genuinely distressed, but Fang Hui still hit her.
This incident made Shen Qianyu feel that there was a distance between them.
Fang Hui turned her head away, wiped away her tears, and sniffed.
"If you don't want me to apply it for you, you can have Yun Shu come and help you."
As Fang Hui put down the ointment and was about to leave, a servant came in.
"Sister Fang, Miss Lin from the Lin family has arrived. Madam Lu requests your presence and also said that Miss Chen should ideally visit as well."
Fang Hui looked at Shen Qianyu.
Shen Qianyu's face was grim.
Let alone getting out, it's questionable whether she can even stand up right now.
However, she couldn't have any expectations of Fang Hui, because Fang Hui was definitely forcing her to go.
"Qianyu, hang in there. We cannot disobey the Madam's orders."
"Mom, I'm in this state now..."
"No matter what, you still have to go, Qianyu. You only have a few days left, can you hang in there?"
Shen Qianyu looked at her pleadingly.
She still can't forget how she felt when she went to the toilet last night.
Fang Hui could have easily told Tang Ning about her situation, and Tang Ning wouldn't have done anything, but Fang Hui just insisted on doing it.
"Qianyu, I'm begging you, I'm begging you on behalf of your mother, please?"
Shen Qianyu thought that they had given her life, so she decided to return the life to them before she left. From then on, they would not need to have much contact.
The moment Shen Qianyu stood on the ground, she felt her wound tear open again, as if the blood inside had already come out.
Every step she took felt like someone was slashing her repeatedly; it was excruciating.
Shen Qianyu had no idea how she ended up in the Lu family's living room. Lin Weixia was sitting next to Lu Xiuyuan, looking every bit like a couple.
Lu Xiuyuan was peeling an apple for her when, perhaps not paying attention, the knife accidentally cut his finger, causing it to bleed.
Lin Weixia was anxious and quickly put his finger in her mouth.
Tang Ning watched this scene with a smile.
Lu Xiuyuan seemed surprised by Lin Weixia's actions, and his expression was one of shock as he looked at her.
Lin Weixia kept looking at him with a smile.
Shen Qianyu thought she could ignore it, but seeing it still made her heart ache.
She subconsciously turned her gaze away and noticed that there were many gifts in the living room, which were obviously brought by Lin Weixia.
Tang Ning quickly called out, "Someone, bandage the young master's hand."
Lu Xiuyuan left with the servant. Lin Weixia was a little worried, but Tang Ning said, "It's okay, there are servants."
Lin Weixia then withdrew her worried gaze.
Tang Ning still treated Lin Weixia very well. Because of the Lin family's status, Tang Ning didn't care even though Lin Weixia had been with many men in the past.
For Shen Qianyu, it was incredibly ironic. She would rather have a daughter-in-law like Lin Weixia than a maid like herself.
Lin Weixia looked at Fang Hui and Shen Qianyu and immediately greeted them with a smile.
"Aunt Shen, Qianyu."
Shen Qianyu's forehead was still covered in sweat.
Along the way, she noticed many people secretly watching her and pointing at her.
They must have mentioned that she was beaten.
Fang Hui responded to Lin Weixia with great enthusiasm, as if she were seeing her own daughter.
"Miss Lin, what brings you here today? Come to think of it, this is the first time you've visited our home since you returned to China. You've looked even more beautiful in the years since I last saw you."
Lin Weixia smiled and said, "Aunt Chen, you're so good at talking, you're practically praising me to the skies."
“I’m not just good at talking, that’s just how you are.”
Shen Qianyu stood there, her heart filled with sorrow.
When did her mother look at her with such a smile?
Lin Weixia looked at Shen Qianyu: "Qianyu, what's wrong? You don't look too good."
Tang Ning looked at Shen Qianyu with disdain, her face grim: "Shen Qianyu, what's with that look on your face? If you don't want to come, no one is forcing you. If you're here, come with a smile. Nobody here owes you anything."
Fang Hui quickly reached out and nudged Shen Qianyu, whispering, "Did you hear that? I'm talking to you. Can't you even smile a little?"
He then quickly said to Tang Ning, "Madam, it's all my fault. I failed to discipline my daughter properly."
She made no mention of being beaten.
"And you, you can't even manage your own daughter, how can I trust you to take care of anyone else?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Hui immediately tensed up.
"No, I've already taken care of it, it's Qianyu..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Qianyu collapsed to the ground.
