"Hiss!" Zhang Niuli took a deep breath. The slightest movement would cause a tearing pain in the place he couldn't speak of. The pain inside was so severe that it felt as if someone was scraping his flesh with sharp saw teeth. Every sharp pain was like a torture.

He didn't dare to act anymore and weakly pulled the quilt, trying to cover up his weak self, as if this could cover up the humiliation and embarrassment he was feeling.

This was the first time in his life that Zhang Niuli felt so humiliated. He didn't even dare to tell his wife the truth. He only said that someone kidnapped him in the middle of the night and beat him up, leaving his back covered in blood. He didn't even tell his wife where his injuries were most serious.

Fortunately, he had his underwear to cover up his embarrassment, otherwise he would not even be able to face his wife.

Yuan Yanjun hurriedly stopped Zhang Niuli's movements and said, "Husband, don't move. Be careful not to let the blankets rub off your medicine. It's better to get out of the water and recuperate. If you're really cold, I'll have someone light some charcoal in the house to keep you warm."

Zhang Niuli had no choice but to stop covering the quilt and said bitterly, "It's not cold, there's no need to burn charcoal."

Yuan Yanjun: "Okay, then is my husband hungry?"

Zhang Niuli: "Hungry."

Yuan Yanjun went out and said to her personal maid, "Dong'er, go and have breakfast delivered. The master and I will eat here today."

The maid named Dong'er nodded.

Nie Shen'er had a good sleep yesterday and woke up refreshed the next day. The mansion was quiet, without any movement, and no one was heard trying to catch the thief. Nie Shen'er guessed that Zhang Niuli didn't want to make it public.

How can we keep silent about this?

Fortunately, she made arrangements last night, so let's just wait and see what happens today.

When Zhang Hexuan woke up in the morning, the wounds on his face had healed, but the injuries on his body had not. The amazing thing was that after many days of training, although his injuries had not fully healed, his willpower had become much stronger. He could actually ignore the injuries on his body and endure the pain to live a normal life.

He was forbidden to go to bed by Nie Shen'er and could only sleep in another room.

Zhang Hexuan knew that Nie Shen'er was angry that he had a child with another woman, so he didn't dare to go against her wishes at all. He thought that he would just wait until Shen'er calmed down. Before that, he would accept any beatings or scoldings from her.

After Zhang Hexuan woke up, he first ordered the servant to apply medicine to him, and then went to another room and personally stopped the maid who was about to give Shen'er water.

Zhang Hexuan brought a basin of water into the room, just in time for Shen'er to wake up and get up.

"Shen'er, let me comb your hair." Zhang Hexuan said after watching Shen'er rinse her mouth and wash her face.

Nie Shen'er smiled faintly and said, "Okay."

Zhang Hexuan happily came over, carefully picked up Shen'er's hair and combed it. This was the first time Shen'er allowed him to comb her hair after she got angry.

Even when Zhang Hexuan was in Yongji County, he relied on his servants for his daily life. He had never done such a thing himself, so he was very unfamiliar with it.

Even though he was deliberately careful, he still accidentally pulled Shen'er's hair.

Nie Shen'er frowned, slapped him, and said lightly, "Can't you be more careful?"

Zhang Hexuan was slapped on the face and felt wronged. Tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably. "I didn't mean to do that. Shen'er, please don't be angry."

"Hmph, be more careful next time." Nie Shen'er hit him with a stick and gave him a sweet date. After saying that, she stood up and kissed Zhang Hexuan's beautiful red lips. She touched his head as a reward and said coquettishly:

"I hit you because you hurt me. If it was someone else, I wouldn't bother to get angry."

Zhang Hexuan was coaxed in a second and felt elated by what Shen'er said. Shen'er said that it was because of him that he hit her. Doesn't this mean that he has a special position in Shen'er's heart?

Zhang Hexuan hugged Shen'er and gently rested his chin on his shoulder. The bright red slap marks were obvious on his handsome face, but he smiled very happily: "I know Shen'er likes me the most, and I like Shen'er the most too."

"Really?" Nie Shen'er leaned into his arms, her tone seductive, "Then when will you kill those two evildoers for me? I'm your only one. Even if you have a child with someone else, I'm willing to forgive you, provided you can kill them."

Zhang Hexuan felt a chill run down his spine. He didn't expect that after so many days, Shen'er was still unwilling to let his child go.

Zhang Hexuan said bitterly: "Shen'er, the child is innocent. If you are really angry, just continue to beat me to vent your anger, okay?"

Nie Shen'er's smile remained unchanged. She had given Zhang Hexuan a chance before, but after he didn't cherish it, she no longer had any expectations of him.

Now it's just a casual remark.

If Zhang Hexuan's appearance was not to her liking and made her feel happier, she would never have let Zhang Hexuan stand here.

It was Zhang Hexuan who destroyed her expectations of love in this life, and it was also he who humiliated her on the second day of her wedding.

"Waste." Nie Shen'er muttered, whipped him, and ordered, "Take off your clothes."

Zhang Hexuan was stunned. He didn't expect Shen'er to be so sweet one second and then turn hostile the next...

It seems that since that day, Shen'er's temper has rarely been stable.

Was he wrong?

Zhang Hexuan felt more and more bitter, but he really couldn't bring himself to kill the child and wanted to save him.

Zhang Hexuan took off his clothes, knelt on the ground, and endured Nie Shen'er's whipping. His back was covered with scars, old scars plus new scars, it was very scary.

Nie Shen'er, who caused all this, was calm as water and did not feel any pain at all.

If it were her in the past, she would still feel distressed, but now she has no feelings for Zhang Hexuan and just thinks of him saying it's a free duck, so how could she feel distressed?

After she has carried out her revenge plan, Zhang Hexuan can die.

She doesn't keep unfaithful people.

That's just her personality. If she loves someone, she wants him to live; if she hates someone, she wants him to die.

The maids serving Nie Shen'er, including those assigned by the Zhang Mansion, watched in horror and numbness as Nie Shen'er punished Zhang Hexuan again. They couldn't help feeling scared in their hearts, wondering why they were sent to serve such a new master.

I'm really afraid that one day the master won't be satisfied with the beating and will punish them as well.

Zhang Hexuan groaned, cold sweat oozing from his forehead after being hit. He said softly, "As long as Shen'er calms down, I won't feel any pain."

Nie Shen'er got tired of standing, so she sat on a stool, watching Zhang Hexuan kneeling on the cold ground, and whipping him from time to time.

Until there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and a crisp voice came, "Young Madam, this servant has heard a piece of news!"

The voice came before the person arrived. It turned out to be Lu Yun, the maid that Nie Shen'er brought with her as a dowry.

When Nie Shen'er got married, she brought with her four maids as a dowry, who were responsible for taking care of Nie Shen'er's daily life.

Lu Yun was sent to get Nie Shen'er's clothes that had been washed by the servants. She was holding a basket of clothes in her arms. Seeing the scene in the room, Lu Yun spoke without pause. While taking out the clothes from the basket and folding them, she said:

"The whole house is going crazy. They say someone has written a lot of words on the walls of the house, saying that the master was deflowered by a man!"
