Smack!
Another lash fell, and Lu Qian’s back imdiately split open, flesh parting from the skin.
In that mont, Mu Xiangjun completely broke down.
Just as she was about to rush forward, she was stopped by several ancient martial arts masters standing by.
"Mu Kongwen, you son of a bitch," she cursed.
"You turn your elbow out, actually beating your own nephew for an outsider, you’re simply not human!"
Mu Kongwen turned a deaf ear to Mu Xiangjun’s curses and hysteria, transforming his rage into lashes, one after the other, that brutalized Lu Qian, whose skin split and flesh burst open as he scread in agony.
This public punishnt horrified all the passersby who were gathering around, whispering among themselves.
But since there were over a hundred bodyguards surrounding the area, they couldn’t squeeze in.
Watching Lu Qian being whipped by Mu Kongwen right before his eyes, Ye Fei and ng Sen stood with their hands clasped behind their backs, silent.
Perhaps in Mu Xiangjun’s eyes, she hoped her big brother would rush out to stand up for her.
Maybe this was her biggest reliance.
Too bad, she probably never imagined this scene in her wildest dreams.
At this mont, after more than twenty lashes, Lu Qian, whose skin had split and flesh had burst open, was in so much pain that he passed out.
Mu Xiangjun, held back by the martial artists, also collapsed to the ground, weeping inconsolably, like a ss of mud.
Just then, Mu Xiangjun’s butler, with an anxious expression, approached Ye Fei.
"Mr. Ye, you have so sway with our family’s young master; please, I beg you to plead on our behalf!" he said.
At these words, Ye Fei frowned slightly.
"Why should I plead for you?" he asked.
The head butler replied bitterly, "Haven’t you noticed? The young master is acting out of anger on your behalf."
"If you don’t plead, the young master won’t be able to step down from this, and the ultimate result will be that Young Master Lu gets beaten to death."
After hearing this, Ye Fei’s expression beca aningful.
How could he not have noticed?
He simply wanted Mu Kongwen to teach the impudent Lu Qian a lesson, and to let Mu Xiangjun, who indulged her son and let him behave violently, truly experience the pain of losing a child.
"Brother Ye!" ng Sen suddenly whispered from the side, "That’s enough, the Mu family’s young master has already proven his point!"
Ye Fei humd in acknowledgnt, then took a slow step forward, suddenly catching the lash Mu Kongwen swung down in his hand.
In that instant...
The entire scene went silent.
Even Mu Kongwen, with the whip now caught by Ye Fei, showed a puzzled expression.
"Brother Ye, what are you..."
"Enough!" said Ye Fei with a smile. "As they say, teach your son in front of you, your wife behind closed doors. You, as an uncle, have the guts."
"But the child shouldn’t be beaten to death. Then whom will you educate?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Kongwen nodded understandingly.
"All right, for the sake of Brother Ye, I’ll spare this rebellious child today," he declared.
"If there’s a next ti, I will surely beat you half to death."
With that, he threw the long whip to the ground, and the ancient martial artists imdiately released the weeping Mu Xiangjun.
The next second, Mu Xiangjun, like a wild horse freed from its reins, hastily rushed to the broken and bloody Lu Qian, wailing loudly.
"Brother Ye!" Mu Kongwen turned and looked at Ye Fei, speaking in a serious tone, "I ca here today especially to et you. The Qingyun Grand Hotel has already prepared a welcoming banquet for you..."
"Let’s skip the banquet," said Ye Fei with an indifferent smile. "I just got off the plane and have to rush back to see my wife and daughter. It’s been half a month!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Kongwen was first taken aback, then burst into hearty laughter, understanding completely.
"Right, right, wife and daughter are important. So, what do you say..."
"Help out with him," said Ye Fei, nodding toward ng Sen. "Take him to Yue Chan dical Clinic!"
"As for us, let’s et after I’ve seen my wife and kids, maybe the day after tomorrow. After all, I’d also like to discuss the matters up north with you."
After hearing this, Mu Kongwen nodded knowingly.
"Alright, let’s settle on that, the day after tomorrow. We’ll have a good get-together, and invite Old Zhu and Old Bai too," he said.
"Fine!" Ye Fei waved his hand towards him, received his luggage from ng Sen, and walked alone towards the exit.
Only then did Mu Kongwen turn, laughing and sizing up ng Sen.
"Brother, let’s go and have a few drinks first, then I’ll personally take you there. Since everything is already set up, it can’t be left unattended, right? You can represent Brother Ye, how about that?"
After hearing this, ng Sen found it difficult to decline and happily nodded in agreent.
