Chapter 264: Annoying
Seeing Qiao Wei rush up, Shen Hanxing’s eyes flashed with a dark light. It just so happened that she didn’t have the intention to help Qiao Wei educate her children. But Shen Hanxing had to say what needed to be said.
“Shen Jie is young now, but if you don’t educate him properly now when he’s young, won’t he end up committing illegal acts and killing people when he grows up?” Shen Hanxing turned her body. She raised the feather duster and did not stop whipping him. She continued, “I have to hit him now until he finds it painful. If he knows how to be afraid, then he won’t make such a mistake in the future.”
“Ah!” Qiao Wei didn’t care about what Shen Hanxing had said. She tried to snatch Shen Hanxing’s feather duster, but Shen Hanxing was already prepared. Not only was Qiao Wei unable to snatch it, but she was also whipped a few times. Qiao Wei had lived in luxury for so many years. She had never suffered such pain before. She couldn’t help but scream.

However, Shen Jie’s crying became louder and louder and he even began to pant heavily as though he could not breathe. Qiao Wei was also in a sorry state, her exposed skin was beaten until it was red. Shen Yong finally could not help but grab a teacup and smash it on the ground. He shouted, “Enough! Enough is enough! Stop it now!”
With the sound of the teacup smashing, everything finally came to an end.
Shen Hanxing put away the feather duster and smiled calmly. She said, “Didn’t you all say so? I am Shen Jie’s older sister after all.” Her cold palm gently brushed over Shen Jie’s head. Shen Jie was so scared that his whole body trembled. He screamed and rushed into Qiao Wei’s arms. He cried loudly, “Mommy!”
“Xiao Jie, are you okay?” Qiao Wei’s heart ached. Her body was hurting badly too. However, she hugged Shen Jie in her arms and comforted him carefully. She said, “Quick, let Mommy see. Hanxing, how can you be so cruel? Xiao Jie is still young, and he’s your father’s only son. What if you heavily injure him?” She was the best at making sarcastic remarks.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Shen Yong saw Qiao Wei and Shen Jie’s miserable state. His heart ached, but he could not help but feel guilty. Then, his feelings of guilt turned into endless anger toward Shen Hanxing. He shouted, “Shen Hanxing, I told you to come home to eat, and you made the house look like this!” He was full of anger and directly vented it on Shen Hanxing. He continued, “Do you not want to see the house be in a state of peace and quiet? Unlucky fellow, is it so hard to peacefully eat a meal at home? Do you have a grudge against the family or what...”
“What’s wrong with me?” Shen Hanxing tucked her hair behind her ear and looked at Shen Yong with a smile. “Didn’t you say that we’re family? I felt that Shen Jie’s behavior earlier was bad, so what’s wrong with teaching him a lesson? Or are you only saying that we are family, but in reality, you don’t treat me as part of the family at all? If that’s the case, then there’s no need for me to have a meal here today.”
After saying that, Shen Hanxing pretended to leave. “Since you all treat me as an outsider, I don’t want to shamelessly take your food. I’ll be leaving first.”
“Stop right there!” Shen Yong’s expression changed and he forcefully suppressed his anger. He forced out a smile and said, “Why are you so hot-tempered? I’m saying that your younger brother is too young to be beaten like this. How could you say that we do not treat you as part of the family?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQiao Wei’s heart was filled with hatred. Shen Jie had been raised to have tender skin and tender flesh. At this moment, the parts of his body that had been beaten up were bruised and purple. The marks were clear, and when she touched them, they were burning and swollen. Although they were all places with a lot of flesh, Qiao Wei’s heart still ached terribly. However, she could not get angry at Shen Hanxing. She had to be patient and persuade her. She said, “Hanxing, look at you. How can a family not have conflicts? How can you leave just like that? Your father has been looking forward to you coming home for a meal. If you leave like this, he will be very disappointed.”
To be honest, Shen Hanxing admired Qiao Wei’s patience. No wonder she was able to get along well with a chauvinist like Shen Yong for such a long time. Shen Hanxing smiled faintly, “Well, it’s because I’ve never stayed at home so I’m not familiar with everyone. I was afraid that I will agitate you all and yet shamelessly refuse to leave. Then, I would be annoying all of you here.”
......
Her words made everyone’s expressions turn nasty.
Shen Sisi, who had been lowering her head and keeping silent, raised her head at this moment. She tried to mediate the situation in a delicate and weak manner. Shen Sisi said, “Older Sister, what are you talking about? A family doesn’t speak to each other in such a distant manner. No matter how much Mommy and Daddy love our younger brother, they still care about you, Older Sister.” Her words had a hidden meaning.
“It’s good that you’re not angry. It was also my fault for hitting Shen Jie the moment I entered the house. However, I’m doing this for his own good.” Shen Hanxing put down her bag and sat on the sofa.
