Chapter 246: Chapter 246: An Hour of Slaps Chapter 246: Chapter 246: An Hour of Slaps “Zhong You, if you leave, your aunt can’t expect to have a peaceful life at the Zhong Residence. If you’re bold enough, leave!” Zhong Yun rushed forward, intending to slap the still-crying woman.
But little did he know…
A silver needle sharply shot out, directly pricking his hand. His eyes widened in surprise, a sense of dread swelled in his heart.
As expected, the situation repeated itself. The hand impaled by the silver needle moved and slapped his own face.
Lin Caisang lowered her head, let out a light laugh, then leisurely moved to Zhong You’s side, nudging the silver needle from his hand and patting his shoulder.
“For a youngster, acting too arrogantly can lead to retribution,” she said.
Before he could utter another word, another slap landed on his face. The pain forced tears to his eyes, but he didn’t dare to retaliate against Lin Caisang.
“Take this as a lesson. I won’t let you slap yourself for too long, just an hour is enough,” Lin Caisang said casually.
An hour of slapping himself, would his face survive that? He was sure it would hurt so much he’d be meeting the King of Hell. This woman was too ruthless. He wanted to retort, but his hand completely denied him the opportunity.
Yet again, another loud slap.
Lin Caisang blinked her adorable eyes, nodding.
“This lesson is simply to let you remember one thing. Should anything, even a single hair, happen to this aunt here, I don’t know how many hours your hand will slap your own face,” she said, her innocent shrug contrasting with her sharp gaze sweeping over the household staff and Grand Old Master Zhong.
“The same goes for anyone else.”
The servants, hearing their Eldest Young Master’s loud self-inflicted slap and Lin Caisang’s public threat, all stiffened, sucking in a breath, standing straight and motionless.
No one fancied treating their own cheek as a punching bag.
“Of course, if someone from the Zhong Residence slaps themselves, I will definitely ensure the Eldest Young Master shares the fun. After all, such treatment should be second nature for him, isn’t that right?”
Zhong Yun, tears welling in his eyes, didn’t dare to send a malicious glance Lin Caisang’s way.
Lin Caisang ignored the Zhong household, went to Ya Molian, and prepared to leave.
Zhong You didn’t move, waiting for his aunt, until the woman wiped her tears, came to him, and waved him over, “Let’s go, You’er. Don’t worry about me. After all, I’m your father’s concubine, they wouldn’t dare to treat me too badly.”
She lowered her voice and said to her son.
“You’re leaving home, from now on you must live on your own and stop being willful. Since you’ve recognized this young lady as your master, you must respect her and not go against her, understand?”
“I understand, Mother,” Zhong You obediently replied.
In the end, with Ya Molian’s assistance, the three of them reached the gate of the Zhong Residence.
Since Zhong You’s injuries were severe, Ya Molian hired a horse carriage to let Zhong You rest inside while he controlled the cart with Lin Caisang.
An hour later, in Zhong Residence.
In the courtyard of Grand Old Master Zhong, Zhong Yun’s face was smeared with blood. A chambermaid was applying medication to his face, his screams of pain echoed through the residence.
