Chapter 13 - The Whip

"What's the fuss about?"

Yan Dong walked over from behind, looking unhappy.

"Daddy." Yan Qi immediately went up and held his arm. She said in a sweet voice, "It's Sister. Not only did she push me into the pool, but she also slapped Mommy. She feels that she has suffered in our family before and wants to get back at me now!"

Yan Dong looked over. As expected, half of Luo Yun's face was swollen and red, which proved Yan Qi's words.

His eyebrows twitched. Yan Dong sensed something unusual.

His daughter had always been timid. No matter how impudent she was outside, she didn't even dare to breathe loudly at home. Today, not only did she contradict him, she even dared to attack Yan Qi and the others.

She obviously went wild and didn't respect the Yan family anymore.

A trace of darkness flashed past Yan Dong's eyes. He married his daughter to the Gu family because he wanted her to be his help, not like now, to bite him instead.

"You ungrateful girl! How dare you attack your mother and younger sister!"

Yan Xi's tone was cold. "They attacked me first."

Yan Qi snorted. "You don't have any wounds on your body at all. Mom and I were beaten quite badly by you."

"The wound on my mouth hasn't healed yet. You said that I hurt you first, then why did you follow me to the pool?"

"I was just going there to sit for a while. Who knew you were there too?"

Yan Qi didn't know what to say. She paused for a moment and Yan Dong's angry voice sounded.

"Shut up! You hurt people and you're still trying to justify yourself!" His fierce-looking face was trembling. "Go upstairs and bring me the whip. You ungrateful girl, I will make you learn the lesson tonight."

The thick and long whip was what he used to punish people who pissed him off at home. With a few whips, he could almost beat the person to death.

Yan Qi said proudly, "It's time to teach her a lesson. She even dared to speak rudely to you today!"

Yan Xi was pushed into the room by the bodyguards. There was nothing inside except a sofa.

She shuddered in fear uncontrollably.

Yan Qi thought she was scared, so she sneered, "You're just a dog of the Yan family. Do you really think you're Gu Shen's wife?"

Yan Dong sat on the sofa while Luo Yun and Yan Qi stood at the side.

"Kneel," he ordered.

Yan Xi was still standing. "Kneel to who? You?" She smirked and said sarcastically, "You're not worthy."

Yan Dong sneered and called the bodyguard beside him. "Press her down and make her kneel. If she doesn't, break her legs."

The bodyguard pressed Yan Xi down and forced her to kneel.

Yan Xi was unwilling to kneel. She stood stubbornly on the spot under the pressure of the bodyguard.

Seeing that she was not kneeling, the bodyguard kicked her from behind a few times. Yan Xi groaned and fell onto the road in pain.

The black and gold whip was brought up by someone, emitting a soft glow.

Yan Dong said without hesitation, "Beat her up, beat her up!"

"Who are you going to hit?"

The door was suddenly kicked open and a man's cold voice came from the door.

Yan Xi's eyes lit up. She followed the sound and met Gu Shen's gaze.

"Hubby!"

Yan Xi Looked at him excitedly and expectantly almost as if she was looking at her savior.

Gu Shen frowned and his gaze was attracted by the bruises on Yan Xi's legs. The bruises were quite obvious because her kind was fair.

He could not suppress his anger anymore. He thought that he was angry simply because of the fact that Yan Xi was his wife.

"Gu Er, go help Madam up," he said again.
