Chapter 531: Are You Also Dissatisfied with Me?

“Qishan! Just look at your good daughter-in-law. This is the daughter-in-law that you can’t bear to part with! Look at how she treats you. In this house, even your words aren’t as powerful as those of your daughter-in-law. What are you going to do as the head of the house?” Fourth grandfather looked at Ruan Lijia, who had been beaten until she was unrecognizable. “Stop hitting her right this second. If you continue to hit her, then she will die!”

Ruan Qishan looked towards Ling Tianya. “Ling Tianya! Tell him to stop. Do you really want her to die?”

Ling Tianya lifted one eyebrow and looked at Ruan Lijia, who had been beaten to a pulp, and indolently said, “Big Guy, stop.”

“Yes, young madame!” Big Guy received the order and immediately released his hand.

Ruan Lijia’s body fell from Big Guy’s hand and onto the floor. She coughed out blood as well as a bunch of teeth.

“Does Miss Lijia understand her mistake?” Ling Tianya smiled as she looked at Ruan Lijia, her eyes reflecting the joy she found in the other woman’s calamity.

Ruan Lijia forced her body upright, wanting to say something to Ling Tianya, yet, as she opened her mouth, more blood spewed out. Unable to speak, she could only sob.

Ruan Guofu and third Mrs. Ruan felt extremely bad and Ruan Guofu looked at Ruan Qishan with hatred. “Big brother, how could you keep such an evil woman! My Lijia has been beaten to a pulp. I won’t let this matter slide so easily!”

Ruan Qishan’s face darkened and he looked at Ling Tianya, furious. Originally, he was taking Ling Tianya’s feelings into consideration and felt guilt towards her. Who knew that the second she came in, she would turn around and slap him in the face like that and put him on the spot.

“Right, Qishan! Such an evil woman will only bring harm to the Ruan Family!” Fourth grandfather chimed in, speaking for Ruan Guofu.

“Fourth grandfather is wrong.” Ling Tianya sat with one hand protecting her lower abdomen and the other hand on her chin “I was only following the rules, so why am I wrong? Also, the rules stated that she was supposed to be beaten with a rod and I only told Big Guy to slap her a couple of times, so how am I evil?”

Fourth grandfather’s expression tensed and he scolded, “Stop trying to twist words and force logic!”

Ling Tianya laughed, stood up, and walked a couple of steps. Behind her were five bodyguards, including Big Guy.

Fourth grandfather’s eyes widened in alarm. “What do you want?”

After Ling Tianya was a short distance away from fourth grandfather, she raised her head to look at Madame Ruan. “Grandmother, do you think that I’m in the wrong?”

Madame Ruan looked at Ruan Lijia and pursed her lips, thinking that Ling girl’s plan was quite ruthless. However, as the words left her mouth, they became, “I don’t think that Ling girl is in the wrong.”

“Mom!”

“Sister-in-law!”

“Aunt!”

Ruan Qishan, Ruan Guofu, as well as the three elders, simultaneously looked at Madame Ruan. All the other members of the clan who fourth grandfather had brought with him also looked at Madame Ruan.

Madame Ruan, under all their gazes, joyfully said, “Since the ancient texts include these rules, we must follow them. Lijia spoke rudely to Ling Tianya, therefore it is the right of Ling girl to punish her.”
