CHAPTER 396: CHAPTER 348: AUNT QIU KNEW SHE HAD ULTERIOR MOTIVES: "TELL ME IN DETAIL.

Zhang Hexsong was so frightened he didn’t dare speak immediately. After a moment, he stammered,

"Mianmian, what... what are you doing? Do you really want to kill your own uncle with your own hands? Your mother and I are siblings of the same blood."

Ruan Mian let out a cold laugh, finding the expressions on these people’s faces laughable.

But that’s human nature, after all; she never underestimates it.

And no one’s words are trustworthy; the only thing she can rely on is her own judgment.

So, she gripped the dagger tightly and stepped forward.

The sharp blade cut his neck, making Zhang Hexsong’s face turn pale as a sheet.

"Mianmian! Mianmian, let’s calmly talk things over, don’t act impulsively. Whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you everything."

The Ye Family saw this and completely lost their minds, seemingly mad with frenzy.

"Zhang Hexsong, have you no shame? You’re truly shameless!"

"You were the one who wanted to kill Mianmian in the first place, and now for your worthless life, you can turn black into white? What do you have to confess, anyway? What do you even know? You don’t even know why the Princess wants you to torture Mianmian."

The repeated provocations from the Ye Family utterly enraged Zhang Hexsong.

Even though his hands were tied, he suddenly stood up and kicked the Ye Family hard.

Then, his eyes filled with malevolence, he stomped fiercely on the Ye Family’s face.

"Worthless woman! Is there even a place for you to speak here? Go to hell! Go to hell!"

"Dad! Dad, stop!"

Zhang Rong’er was shocked, but no matter how others spoke, Zhang Hexsong seemed to hear nothing, intent only on stomping the Ye Family to death.

The Ye Family was already injured, and a kick to the abdomen left them unable to crawl.

Then Zhang Hexsong continued to stomp on the face; the intense force left the face mutilated and terrifying.

Those watching felt their hearts leap to their throats, yet Ruan Mian merely watched with cold eyes.

Scenes like these, of dog-eat-dog conflict, she had seen many times before.

Those who act this way are often selfish and opportunistic.

Their suffering is merely the price they ought to pay!

She was just a bystander, with no reason to save their wretched lives; even if saved, they’d only sow chaos in the world once more.

Only Zhang Rong’er, seeing her mother beaten to death by her own father, cried bitterly, her voice hoarse.

It was unclear how long it took before Zhang Hexsong finally sighed in relief.

Seeing the immobilized Ye Family beneath his feet, he felt no guilt, but instead kicked them harshly to the side!

"Cheap woman! Even in comfort, you can’t understand enjoyment; this is the consequence you deserve!"

"Dad, do you even know what you’re saying? Mother is your legally wedded wife! How could you be so insane?"

Zhang Rong’er knew Zhang Hexsong looked down on her, just because she was a girl, not favored like her brother.

Yet clearly, her brother was a waste, good for nothing, not measuring up to herself, but he still gained their father’s favor.

All these years, Zhang Rong’er felt a deep-seated resentment.

Now, this anger had peaked! Her eyes bloodshot, she glared at Zhang Hexsong, roaring in fury.

But Zhang Hexsong merely pointed at her nose, cursing in anger.

"And you, just like that worthless woman! Raised by her indeed! Go and beg forgiveness from your Sister Mianmian!"

Every word from Zhang Hexsong was like a needle piercing Zhang Rong’er’s heart.

She clenched her fists tightly; Ruan Mian seemed to sense what she was about to do but didn’t stop her.

Instead, she watched as Zhang Rong’er charged at Zhang Hexsong like a madwoman!

All that could be heard was Zhang Hexsong’s wailing screams as he fell heavily to the ground, and Zhang Rong’er seemed to seek vengeance for her mother, biting down hard on his ear until it was a bloody mess.

No matter how he struggled, he couldn’t make Zhang Rong’er let go.

Instead, it angered her even more; she not only bit off his ear but also chewed his nose to a pulp.

Like a rabid mad dog.

It wasn’t until Zhang Hexsong had no further ability to resist that Zhang Rong’er finally stopped.

She then looked at Ruan Mian and, kneeling, pleaded pitiably.

"Sister Mianmian, Sister Mianmian, just spare my life!"

"You’ve seen for yourself, this is how my father treated me, how he became insane enough to kill my mother with his own hands! Now, I have nowhere to go; my only relative left is you! Sister Mianmian, please, for the sake of our once..."

"Only relative?" Ruan Mian couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
