Chapter Three-Hundred and Nine: Humiliated

Yun Liu pushed Gu He onto the sofa when they got home. Zheng Xiu immediately rushed to her son and exclaimed, "What's wrong? What happened? Gu He, were you out drinking?"

Gu He hugged Zheng Xiu and cried loudly. He pointed at Yun Liu and tattled, "She hit me! Mom, she hit me!"

Zheng Xiu's face darkened, and she shouted at Yun Liu, "How can you hit your little brother?!"

She turned back to Gu He and reached out to touch his face. Gu He cried out in pain, and Zheng Xiu quickly called the maids to bring an ice pack and a hard-boiled egg. She babied and comforted Gu He while she busied around without even giving Yun Liu a second glance.

It was only now that Yun Liu's blood gradually flowed from her numb limbs back to her heart and then flowed back to her limbs. Yun Liu recovered her wits, and desolation welled in her heart.
