Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After being exposed by Li Wanwan, Ji Yan appeared to be somewhat guilty. His face was filled with 70% awkwardness and 30% defeat, but there was no trace of regret.

In the beginning, he really did not want this group of gangsters to harm Ling Mo beyond a certain extent.

But when he sensed Ling Tian’s hatred for Ling Mo, he made up his mind and was prepared to irreparably damage her.

Benevolence and morality were important.

However, if he could win Ling Tian’s heart, he would obediently do whatever he was asked to do.

“What exactly do you want?”

After calming his breathing, Ji Yan dragged his half-crippled arm and struggled to stand up along the wall.

Ling Mo crossed her arms and looked down at the half-disabled Ji Yan from above. She smiled and sneered, “You have to ask yourself that. I’m just going with the flow. I don’t have a strong motive.”

“Deskmate, stab his crotch with a needle! Paralyse his lower body and make him sterile!”

Li Wanwan had never seen such a shameless person like Ji Yan. She was so angry that her eyes were red and her head was dizzy.

Ji Yan looked at the two people in front of him, who were going back and forth with each other, and his molars were grinding.

He had originally planned to use his family’s influence to deal with Ling Mo.

However, the tricky thing was that Ling Mo had started a live stream beforehand to record the whole process of him paying for the murder.

This meant that once something happened to Ling Mo, regardless of whether it was his doing or not, the police would treat him as the first suspect.

After careful consideration, he could only temporarily give up on the idea of dealing with Ling Mo. He put down his attitude and asked her nicely, “This whole thing started because of me. Please be magnanimous and let Ling Tian off.”

“You can’t even protect yourself, and you’re still thinking about your precious love?”

Ji Yan frowned slightly and asked in a slightly confused manner, “What do you mean?”

“Are you blind to the law?” Ling Mo looked speechlessly at the confused Ji Yan and patiently explained, “The whole process of you hiring a murderer to hurt someone has already been spread through the live stream. Now, if you think you could bury this with your connections, you’re a fool. I believe that the police will soon come for you. At that time, you’ll be locked up for two to three years.”

“Who are you fooling?”

Ji Yan thought to himself. He was not yet eighteen years old. At most, he would be locked up in the juvenile detention center for a few days.

Ling Mo guessed Ji Yan’s thoughts and said calmly, “By the way, I’ll remind you that you have to bear criminal responsibility for hiring a murderer to hurt someone. Even if you’re not an adult, you can still be sentenced to probation according to the law.”

Hearing what Ling Mo said, Ji Yan was completely dumbfounded.

Thinking that his future was likely to be ruined because of this, he could no longer control his emotions. He collapsed on the ground and howled hysterically.

“Criminal celebrity, you deserve it!”

Li Wanwan rolled her eyes at Ji Yan. Then, she held onto Ling Mo’s arm and walked out of the alley with light steps.

…

It was night.

When Ling Mo returned to the Ling residence, the sky had completely darkened.

She looked at the brightly lit living room from afar and knew that there was still a tough battle waiting for her in the huge Ling residence.

Just as she changed into her shoes, Ling Yunlong rushed out of the living room angrily and scolded her, “B * tch, you’re getting more and more outrageous! How many times have I told you? If you want to stay in the Ling family, you better behave yourself. Yet, you’ve turned a deaf ear to everything I’ve said.”

“Have you said enough?”

Ling Mo straightened her back and looked coldly at the furious Ling Yunlong.

In her memory, he had always been like this.

He never asked how much she had suffered and only scolded her.

Seeing that Ling Mo was still indifferent, Ling Yunlong raised his arm and was about to hit her.

Seeing this, Ling Mo took a step back and her sharp lips curled into a mocking smile, “You’re already an adult, can’t you be more serious in your work? The scandal regarding Shi Jian Group hasn’t subsided yet. If there’s another scandal about the chairman’s domestic violence, do you think Shi Jian Group still has a chance to turn things around?”

“Don’t talk nonsense with me! Let me ask you, why did you bully Xiao Tian?”

“When did I bully her?”

Ling Mo asked back coldly. Her sharp eyes went past Ling Yunlong’s broad shoulders and looked at Ling Tian, who was lying in Su Yu’s arms with tears in her eyes.

Ling Tian felt a chill down her spine when Ling Mo stared at her. She suddenly shivered.

She pursed her lips and hid behind Ling Yunlong while crying. She sobbed, “Dad, I’m scared.”

Ling Yunlong saw that Ling Tian was so scared that her face turned pale and her whole body was trembling. He glared at Ling Mo and said in an unfriendly tone, “If you dare to touch Xiao Tian again, I’ll break both of your legs today.”

Ling Mo curled the corners of her lips and said teasingly, “This little one wants to break my arms by borrowing someone else’s knife, and this old one wants to break both of my legs. It really is a nest of snakes and rats. What a loving family.”

After saying this, she originally wanted to use her extraordinary martial prowess to deal with this house of ghosts and monsters, but she suddenly remembered that she had started a live broadcast before entering the house. So she held back and watched their performance.

“You still don’t know how to repent after doing something wrong. Today, I will beat you until you kneel and beg for mercy.”

Ling Yunlong’s patience was exhausted. He turned around and shouted at Nanny Wu, “Go and get the whip.”

“Yes, Master.”

Nanny Wu replied obediently. In the blink of an eye, she brought a thick whip to Ling Yunlong.

Ling Mo glanced at the old-fashioned leather whip on the tray and once again recalled that stormy evening with dark clouds looming.

Seven years ago, after Ling Tian accidentally fell down the stairs, Ling Yunlong had used this whip on her.

Whip after whip…

He mercilessly whipped her until the mottled blood stained her clothes red. Only then did he stop.

“Yunlong, Mo Mo is still young, don’t bother with her. In the future, I will ask Xiao Tian to be more careful and try to avoid Mo Mo as much as possible.”

Su Yu pretended to persuade Ling Yunlong, and the way she looked at Ling Mo was filled with pride.

With her understanding of Ling Yunlong, he wouldn’t stop until he beat Ling Mo to a pulp.

Ling Tian, who had received Su Yu’s teachings, also tugged on Ling Yunlong’s arm weakly and said to him in a low voice, “Big sister only slapped me a few times, and it’ll be fine after the swelling goes down. Dad, please stop, I don’t want you and big sister to have a fight because of me.”

Ling Mo watched the mother-daughter duo’s performance quietly. Unknowingly, she had goosebumps all over her body.

It was not just acting. There was a hint of exaggeration in the pretense.

However, they were convincing. They played the role of the kind and weak little white flower day after day for ten years without getting tired of it.

Seeing Ling Tian shed a few tears again, Ling Yunlong could no longer control his emotions. He raised his whip and whipped Ling Mo.

“Master, you can’t!”

At the critical moment, Nanny Tian rushed over and hugged Ling Yunlong’s raised arm tightly. “The miss’ skin is soft and tender, she can’t take a beating. If you’re angry, hit me.”

Ling Yunlong pushed away Nanny Tian who smelled like oil and smoke in disgust and said angrily, “Get out of the way.”

“Nanny Tian, be careful!”

Ling Mo saw Nanny Tian fall heavily to the ground and quickly reached out to help her up..
