It's obvious that anyone can see that the housekeeper is using so much force and frequency to hit Su Xiaoqing, definitely someone has instructed him.

  The butler's movements came to an abrupt halt at Mo Shen Yu's words.

  A moment later, he obediently pulled the whip back and said, "I'll listen to you, sir."

  Huang Lu rolled her eyes, "We're here to discipline those who don't follow the proper way of a wife, when did it become the turn of some orphan with no upbringing to lecture us?"

  In the past, Mo Chenyuan was always silent in such gatherings, but today he suddenly spoke up, which made Huang Lu uncomfortable.

  "You're hitting my wife, I have to say something."

  Mo Chen's domain opened its mouth, and his voice was still faintly discernible.

  Su Xiao Ning could hear that in this household, Mo Chen Yu indeed had no status, no dignity, and not even anyone took his words seriously.

  "Marrying such a worthless person and still wanting to go to heaven."

  Huang Lu let out a cold hum and turned her gaze to look at Old Man Mo, "Dad, I think this Su Xiao Ning won't learn a lesson unless she's beaten."

  "But since she's already our family's daughter-in-law, let's not be too excessive. As long as she admits her mistake, we won't hit her, okay?"

  On the surface, Huang Lu was giving Su Xiao Ning a step down, but in fact, she had accurately grasped Su Xiao Ning's stubborn personality and knew that she would not admit her mistake.

  Mo Lao Ye Zi finally looked down at Su Xiao Ning and asked, "Do you admit your mistake?"

  "I don't recognize."

  Su Xiao Ning straightened her back, "I didn't do anything wrong, why should I admit it."

  Old Mo waved his hand impatiently.

  "Bang!"

  The housekeeper who wielded the whip was another victim of the whip.

  "Do you know what's wrong?"

  "I'm right!"

  "Bang!"

  "Don't you admit your mistake?"

  "I don't recognize!"

  "Bang!"

  The housekeeper used twelve points of strength and fiercely whipped past.

  Su Xiao Ning, who was kneeling on the cushion, was already in so much pain that she could hardly straighten her waist, but she was still gritting her teeth and preparing to accept the whip.

  But she didn't expect that the whip cracked, yet it took a long time to lash onto her body.

  "Sink!"

  A shocking voice came from behind, it was the old master of Mo's family.

  Su Xiaoning hastily turned her head, only to find that Mo Chenyu had somehow gotten down from his wheelchair. He pounced behind her and solidly blocked the whip for her.

  His pure white shirt was stained with blood, and his handsome face turned even paler.

  "Who told you to hit him!?"

  Su Xiaoning clenched her fists and shouted at the butler.

  "Are you blind? If it wasn't me, why are you still hitting him? Don't you know he's in poor health?"

  The housekeeper did not expect Mo Chenyu to rush over and block the whip for Su Xiaoning, nor did he expect Su Xiaoning to yell at him for Mo Chenyu.

  Although the whip had been lashed on her body so painfully before, she didn't make a sound.

  Mo Xingyu was lashed by a whip and she immediately shouted at him loudly.

  "I'm fine."

  Mo Chen raised his eyes weakly and looked at Su Xiao Ning, "It's just... a bit dizzy."

  "Take him to the hospital!"

  Seeing his grandson being beaten, Old Master Mo finally became impatient. He sternly ordered while staring at the butler, "Go and receive your punishment yourself!"

  The housekeeper who was holding the whip could only admit defeat and put down the whip before retreating.

  Before long, the old housekeeper came over to take Mo Chenyuan to the hospital.

  "Don't touch him!"

  Su Xiao Ning shooed away the servants beside her and personally helped Mo Chen Yu back into his wheelchair, "He's my husband, I'll take care of him!"

  After finishing speaking, she pushed Mu Chenyu and left the ancestral hall in big strides.

  Mo Lao Ye Zi stood in the middle of the ancestral hall, watching Su Xiao Ning push Mo Chen Yu away from his back and the several dark red wounds on her back, with a hint of relief flashing through his eyes.

  "Look at the mess this has caused."

  Although Mo Chenyu is the least favored one in the Mohist school, after all, he is also a member of the Mohist school. Huang Lu understands this better than anyone else.

  She smiled somewhat awkwardly, "I didn't expect Chen Yu to be so infatuated with Su Xiaoning, even taking the blame for her..."

  "Alright, stop being so annoying."

  Mo Lao Yezi glared at Huang Lu, "I've also scolded Su Xiao Ling, this matter ends here, no one is allowed to mention it again!"

  After finishing speaking, he also gave Mo Wenhan a cold look, "For no reason at all, what did you go to Su Xiaoling's school for?"

  Mo Yan was watching the commotion when Mo Old Master asked him this, and he naturally didn't know how to respond, "I... I..."

  "Don't think I don't know about the little calculation in your heart, are you so innocent today?"

  Mo Wenhan's face turned pale.

  "Don't pull these petty tricks behind my back again, otherwise, I won't give you a single penny of my property!"

  ***

  Hospital.

  Watching the nurse apply medicine to Mo Chenyu's wound, Su Xiaoning finally let out a sigh of relief, "He won't be in pain like this anymore, right?"

  The nurse nodded, "This medicine has a very good pain-relieving effect."

  Another nurse glanced at Su Xiaoning's back and said, "How about I take care of you too, ma'am?"

  It's clear that her injuries were much more severe than those of her husband.

  It wasn't until the nurse said so that Su Xiaoning felt the pain.

  My back is burning.

  She lay on the bed, and the nurse behind her carefully cut open her clothes, carefully disinfecting the exposed skin, Su Xiaoning was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, and finally fainted.

  Sitting on the hospital bed next to her, Mo Chenyuan looked at Su Xiaoning's appearance, and a faint heartache flashed through his heart.

  "How long will her wound take to heal?"

  "At least one week."

  "Your wife looks rather weak, but I didn't expect her to be so resilient. An ordinary woman would have fainted from the pain by now, yet she's managed to hold on for so long."

  Mo Chen let out a soft sigh, "Yes."

  She is just such a strange girl.

  Grandfather's attitude was actually very clear, she admitted her mistake and apologized, and this matter would have been over.

  But she would rather suffer her own flesh and blood than admit her mistake and apologize.

  As someone who has been pretending to be ill for over a decade, Mo Chenyu couldn't understand Su Xiaoning's persistence.

  But she did shock him indeed.

  After finishing the medicine and confirming that there was nothing else, Mo Chenyu instructed Old Zhou to go through the hospitalization procedures.

  Su Xiao Ning's back injury was like this, he didn't want to trouble her to go home again.

  "I'm right."

  At night in her ward, she still didn't wake up, but in her dream, she was still stubbornly shouting that she wasn't wrong.

  She made him heartache.

  Mo Chen thought for a moment, then got out of his bed and crawled onto her sickbed, carefully embracing her in his arms, "You're not wrong."

  Your husband can't show his true face yet.

  He held the little woman in his arms and silently closed his eyes.

  After his sister died in the fire when he was ten years old, he told himself that he must disguise himself as a particularly weak person in order to grow up and take revenge on his parents.

  So all these years, he has been playing the role of being aloof and weak very well.

  After hiding for so long, today was the first time he had the idea of not wanting to continue - when watching Su Xiaoning being beaten, he had the impulse to no longer want to tolerate it and no longer want to pretend.

  "I don't admit..."

  The woman in his arms trembled again.

  "You don't have to admit it."

  Mo Chen took a deep breath, lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance on her hair, "I won't keep you waiting for too long."

  "Today all those who bullied you, in the future... I want them one by one, all to kneel down and apologize to you."
