Chapter 406 If you said there wasn't some illicit affair involved, who would believe it!
Even if Chu Yunting was usually oblivious, he could see how sad Chen Ping's smile was, and his heart ached as he watched.
She wanted to turn back and ask Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen for help, only to find that the two of them hadn't followed her at all and were waiting downstairs.
He hesitated for only a few seconds, then his expression quickly hardened. Looking at Chen Ping with utmost seriousness, he asked:
"This family hasn't treated you well, has it? Since that's the case, then I..."
Chen Ping clenched her fists tightly, a smile on her face, but her heart was numb. She stood there, waiting for Chu Yunting to say that he was leaving.
"...In that case, there's no need for me to see them again. I'll just ask for your opinion."
Chen Ping's tears finally flowed. She felt ashamed of herself in front of Chu Yunting, her eyes darting around, unable to look at him.
laugh!
How could anyone be so stupid?
How could there be such a pure person?
But she secretly resolved that if she really got together with Chu Yunting, she would definitely get rid of all these disgusting things!
Their conversation had left the woman and old woman nearby dumbfounded. They looked at each other in bewilderment, glancing at one another.
Is that what they mean?
…………
Chen Zhonghua, humming a tune and waiting for his snacks to go with his drinks, waited in vain for the food to be served. He cursed the scoundrel inwardly.
He downed the wine in the bowl beside him in one gulp, stood up abruptly, kicked aside the stool that was in his way, grabbed the broom by the wall, and stormed out.
Damn it, they're all asking for trouble. Do they really think they have a backer now that her older sister is back?
Bah, that's a worthless piece of trash with no reputation. Even their mother can't say anything to her. Yet this little bitch is trying to get his attention. Can't they even tell who's the boss at home anymore?
Just you wait, all of you just wait. There's nothing a good beating can't solve.
He pushed open the door, cursing, but before even stepping out of the room, Chen Zhonghua glanced up and saw Chen Erping standing blankly in the hallway. He then looked at the stove and saw nothing there—cold stove, nothing at all.
Suddenly, anger surged to the top of his head. He roared and raised the broom in his hand, viciously using the bumpy end.
"Are you fucking trying to die?! Why aren't you cooking properly?! What are you standing there like an idiot for?!"
As he rushed forward, he saw several neighbors watching in the stairwell, but he didn't stop, still holding the broom high in his hand.
Let them watch if they want. What parent doesn't spank their child?
Only these old women have nothing better to do, they treat this like a life-threatening matter, and like to gather around and watch the excitement all day long.
He took a few steps to Chen Erping, stretched out his big hand, lifted her up like a chick, and at the same time raised the broom handle in his other hand high, which fell on her with a whistling sound.
"You brat, you deserve a beating! I'll beat you to death today!"
Chen Erping's thin, frail body was pulled backward, and soon she was lifted up, her feet still dragging on the ground. She was trembling all over and had no strength left.
There was still no screaming or crying; her eyes were fixed on her older sister's direction, and her trembling body, devoid of any self-control, was ready to be beaten.
When Chen Zhonghua came out, Chen Ping was still facing Chu Yunting, and the clothes she was wearing were given to her by Chu Xin.
The dress features a bright red background adorned with tiny, eye-catching floral patterns. The buttons on the front are all handmade Chinese knot buttons, also in the shape of flowers.
Chu Xin would never wear it; she felt that nothing looked as good as her military overcoat.
So this dress was eventually given to Chen Ping, finally fulfilling Liu Yanli's desire to dress up her daughter.
Chen Zhonghua did notice Chen Ping in that fleeting glance, but he didn't recognize her because of her cotton-padded coat.
Chu Yunting was certainly conspicuous, but what did it have to do with him? No one could stop him from beating the child.
Chen Zhonghua didn't know Chu Yunting, and Chu Yunting didn't know him either. But given how arrogant they were, and the fact that the little girl didn't resist, it was obvious who the other party was.
How could he possibly let that fall? The smooth broom handle was made by binding together individual broom twigs and dry branches, so stiff and hard that it would hurt terribly if it hit someone.
Chu Yunting reacted quickly, pushing Chen Ping aside and rushing over. Due to the restrictions of his status, he did not kick her directly, but instead snatched Chen Erping back into his arms.
"Snapped!"
The heavy broom struck Chu Yunting's arm squarely.
Even though I was wearing a cotton coat, it still really hurt.
"hiss!"
Chu Yunting's body trembled slightly, but he quickly straightened up and led Chen Erping away.
Chen Ping was pulled away by Chu Yunting. The woman and the old woman helped her up. When they looked over again, they saw Chu Yunting being beaten.
Her remaining rationality was instantly burned away by the fire in her heart, and even her eyes quickly turned bloodshot. The baby face that Chu Xin had always wanted to pinch looked very different at this moment.
With her chest heaving violently, Chen Ping saw Chu Yunting back away and, without thinking, grabbed the fire tongs from her neighbor's stove and rushed over.
His eyes were icy cold, as if he wanted to kill someone, and his voice was calm, as if he were just talking about what to eat today.
"You beast, you like hitting people, huh? Fine, let's fight then! Let's just die together!"
Chen Zhonghua was also bewildered by Chu Yunting's sudden appearance. Before he could figure out what was going on, another person rushed over from the opposite side.
He knew who it was as soon as the man opened his mouth, and before he could even speak, the dark, black fire tongs were already hitting his head and face.
"what!"
Everyone present: !!
One unexpected event after another left everyone bewildered.
Chen Ping was also fighting fiercely, completely recklessly. When Chen Zhonghua took the second blow, his head was already broken, and he could only howl and cover his head to avoid it.
"Oh no! Help! Someone come quick! This unfilial daughter is going to kill her own father!"
As he passed Chu Yunting, he suddenly tripped over something, giving Chen Ping the opportunity to deliver a one-sided blow.
"Oh my goodness!"
"Ahhh, help!"
He screamed pitifully, but in reality, not a single person came to break up the fight.
Some didn't want to be beaten, while others thought he deserved it.
Of course, the main reason was that the man, who was so tall he almost reached the roof, was standing at the very front, like a formidable fortress, staring at them expressionlessly, as if he would fight anyone who came near.
Even though he was holding a child in his arms, he was still very intimidating.
Besides, his demeanor clearly indicates that he's not an ordinary person. No one would be so foolish as to deliberately seek out trouble, right?
Wang Cuihua, who had been swaying her hips as she returned home, was overjoyed to hear Chen Zhonghua's cursing. She quickly grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds from the cupboard, leaned half her body against the door, and gleefully ate the seeds while listening to the opera.
"That wretched little bastard deserves to be beaten!"
She had barely finished her rant when she heard Chen Zhonghua scream in agony. Startled, she immediately stood up straight, stuffed the sunflower seeds into her pocket, and rushed out the door.
People from other floors arrived, and there were quite a few people gathered. She couldn't see what was going on inside, so she ran a few steps and squeezed in by bending over.
"What's wrong?"
The woman at the front was exceptionally perceptive of her; even several people away, she could tell at a glance that the vixen had reappeared. She gave a cold snort, and said sarcastically:
"Nothing much, it's just that the Chen family has some internal conflicts. But it's nothing serious, it's all family business. A beating will fix it, no need for certain people to worry about it!"
Ha, how despicable! When adults hit children, you gloat and complain that the beating isn't enough, but when the tables are turned, you're more anxious than anyone else.
If you said there wasn't something going on between them, who would believe it!
