Shao moqian's attempt to dissuade her was futile, and so was Yun Xiao's attempt, but it was equally futile. Chi Yi's argument was that she was disciplining her son now, and it was useless no matter who tried to persuade him.
At first, Chu Xia was lying on her stomach on the bed in the bedroom upstairs. She did not know that zixian had been carried downstairs by her mother to be beaten up. In the end, she could vaguely hear Chi Yi's scolding from the first floor. She endured the pain in her back and got out of bed.
"Do you admit your mistake?"
She asked her son again.
Zixian was still so stubborn that he didn't say anything.
Exasperated, Chi Yi lashed her whip at his back once more.
With a loud bang, the long whip struck down, but it didn't land on zixian's back, but on Xi Jue.
Chu Xia?!!
Neither Chi Yi nor zixian expected Chu Xia to appear out of the blue, much less rush over and shield their son's back with her frail body.
