Chapter 9 - A JINX

Although he said it with his mouth, he didn't actually stop or even try to stop it. He let Ren Mu's palm fall heavily on Tang Yutong's fair face, leaving a clear five-finger mark.

Ren Shiyu's eyes flashed with a glint of cunning, but no one noticed as he lay on the hospital bed, looking as if he hadn't been injured at all.

Mo Jin and Lei Gong sat in the Rolls-Royce parked opposite the hospital, worried that Ren Shiyu might harm Tang Yutong, and so they stayed there, keeping watch.

As time passed and Tang Yutong didn't come out, they became increasingly anxious. A cold light flickered in Mo Jin's deep eagle eyes, and his thin lips tightened.

Lei Gong had a strong dislike for Tang Yutong. The boss had been seriously injured for her, but she didn't even ask about his condition. Instead, she went to check on Ren Shiyu. Didn't she realize that the boss and she were husband and wife? How could she care about another man in front of the boss?

But he didn't dare say anything in front of Mo Jin, knowing how important Tang Yutong was to him.

The air seemed to freeze, and the car was filled with cold air. Only the sound of their heartbeats could be heard. Lei Gong felt like it was torture for him. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Boss, shall I take you back first? Madam might take a while..."

Mo Jin didn't move or respond, his gaze fixed on the direction of the hospital gate, radiating coldness all over.

In the hospital room.

"You're a jinx. Shi yu got hurt so badly because of you. Why wasn't it you who got hurt? It's a good thing the engagement was cancelled, otherwise who knows how you would have harmed our Ren family."

Ren's mother pointed at Tang Yutong's nose and cursed with a venomous voice that echoed throughout the entire room, almost breaking through the roof. Tang Yutong didn't say a word, her left cheek was already red, and her eyes were misty, trying hard to hold back the urge to cry, gritting her teeth.

Seeing her look so pitiful and enduring, Ren's mother became more and more displeased, continuing her vicious cursing with a cruel expression, "A woman like you, whoever marries you will be unlucky! You're a husband-killer! If you dare to come and harm our Shi yu again, be careful, I won't be polite to you!"

Ren's family had been taken over and bankrupt, and Shi yu had already told her about it.

Shi yu closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep, not saying a word for Tang Yutong, even when he saw her being beaten, and her face starting to swell. He remained indifferent, lying there motionless.

Ren's father couldn't bear to watch any longer, and quietly pulled Ren's mother aside, gesturing with his eyes for her to stop.

Isn't it embarrassing to be heard by others?

"Don't stop me! I want to tear off her fox mask and see how she seduced my son! Ha ha! She must be just like her dead fox-like mother, like mother, like daughter."

Ren's mother still wouldn't let it go.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yutong couldn't take it anymore. "Auntie, watch your words. I didn't seduce anyone!" What seduction? The way she spoke was so harsh. When they first met, this woman was still kind to her, but now that Tang's family had gone bankrupt and the engagement was cancelled, her true colors were revealed.

At first, Tang Yutong thought it was understandable for Mrs. Ren to react that way when her son was injured, but now she was becoming more and more extreme and unreasonable.

"Am I wrong? If it weren't for your fox-like face, do you think my son would be interested in you? You cheap woman!" As she spoke, Mrs. Ren pounced on her, and Tang Yutong was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

She felt a sharp pain in her neck. This old woman was really vicious. Her sharp nails scratched her neck, leaving a bloody wound.

The sudden attack caught the Ren family off guard. By the time they reacted, it was too late. Mrs. Ren had already started scratching Tang Yutong's face.

Ren Shi Yu was also frightened. He never thought his mother would attack Tang Yutong. However, he couldn't move his legs at the moment, so he couldn't intervene. Ren's father ran over to pull Mrs. Ren away, but he didn't know where she got the strength from. She actually threw him off and sat on the ground.

"You get out of here! Today, I'm going to teach this cheap woman a lesson! Tear apart her cheap face!" This face was always so annoying to her. Jealousy had consumed her reason, and anger burned in her heart.

Tang Yutong had no power to resist and was no match for this crazy woman.

Just when she thought she was going to die...

Suddenly, someone kicked open the door and lifted Ren Mu off of her. She felt a sudden lightness and a sharp pain on her face.

Ren Mu was thrown to the ground with a scream, and there was a crunching sound as if a bone had been broken.

It was Mo Jin who had come in, followed by Lei Gong.

Mo Jin gave Ren Mu a cold glance, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud, making Ren Mu shiver with fear.

"Who are you?" Ren Mu retreated in fear, feeling a sense of crisis all over her body.

Mo Jin ignored her and looked at Tang Yutong with deep anger in his bottomless black eyes. His lips were bloodthirsty and his whole body exuded a mysterious and dangerous aura, like a king from hell, making people shudder.

He didn't understand why this woman wasn't fighting back, wasn't she supposed to be tough? If he hadn't come, would she have been beaten to death by this old woman without making a sound or fighting back?

Tang Yutong knew that he was angry, very angry!

"Are you all trying to die?" Lei Gong said angrily. How dare they lay a hand on his wife in front of their boss? Did they not know who their boss was? They probably didn't know what he was capable of.

Although he didn't like this wife of the boss, she was still the other half of the boss, a young girl, and he couldn't let this family bully her like this.

His voice carried a hint of intimidation, which made the whole family too scared to speak.

Tang Yutong got up from the ground, blood oozing from the wound on her neck, but she didn't seem to mind. She looked at Ren Shiyu lying on the bed, then at Mo Jin who had a fierce look on his face.

Ren Shiyu thought Mo Jin had left already. If he had known that Mo Jin was still here, he would never have let Ren Mu hurt Tang Yutong. Regret flashed in his eyes, but now he could only rely on Tang Yutong. If she didn't agree, Mo Jin would definitely not spare his family.

"Yutong, it's all my fault for not being able to use my leg properly. I apologize on behalf of my mother. She's just like that. Can you please not take it to heart?" He could only say that now.

Tang Yutong quickly came to the bedside, held his hand, and shook her head, not blaming him.
