I Became the Mother of His Child-Chapter 211 - 111: The Marriage Will Be Annulled

"The marriage will definitely be canceled, you don’t have to worry about it. I will take care of it for you," Xu Xiuxiu said to Xu Jingjing with doting affection. She would not let Xu Jingjing be troubled by this matter. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Mm." Xu Jingjing looked obediently at Xu Xiuxiu, as if she would agree to any arrangement Xu Xiuxiu made for her.

At this moment, Xu Fangfang, no longer caring about the wound on her head, walked straight to Xu Jingjing. "Jingjing, big sister is begging you, help your big sister, please? Xiuxiu said she would help me only if you speak for me. Can you say a good word for big sister?" Xu Fangfang pinned her hopes on Xu Jingjing, and despite feeling too ashamed to lift her head in front of Xu Jingjing after what she had done, she had no choice but to plead with her.

"Speak well of you?" Xu Jingjing looked coldly at Xu Fangfang. "Xu Fangfang, why should I speak well of you?" she challenged, then raised her hand and harshly slapped Xu Fangfang’s cheek.

The sharp slap silenced everyone in the hall. Mrs. Xu, clutching her herbal prescription, opened her mouth in shock, and Mr. Xu, who was previously smoking, also paused as the sound of the slap echoed, his aged and wise eyes slowly shifting to the tense scene between his older and younger daughters, reflecting a touch of self-reproach and pain.

"Xu Fangfang, do you know how long I’ve wanted to hit you?" Xu Jingjing said through clenched teeth, her eyes filled with hatred. "Unfortunately, after my accident, you were smart enough to keep avoiding me, preventing me from getting back at you. But now, Xu Fangfang, you no longer hide because you need my help? How come?" Xu Jingjing questioned, her gaze dropping to her slender palm as if savoring the thrill of the slap.

Xu Fangfang felt a numb pain on her cheek, but looking at Xu Jingjing, she showed a resolute expression. "Hit me then! Hit me more, until you’re satisfied, okay?" Xu Fangfang was resigned to sacrificing her own face; she knew that once she walked out of the Xu Family’s door as usual, it would be even less likely for her to receive Xu Jingjing’s forgiveness, and Xu Xiuxiu would definitely not help her anymore.

She analyzed the situation thoroughly. Clearly, she couldn’t afford to be stubborn, but she was really scared, knowing too well how fierce Xu Jingjing could be.

"Alright, Xu Fangfang, you said it yourself. Make sure you don’t back down even a bit. You must endure to the end! Otherwise, all the slaps you’ve taken so far will be for nothing," Xu Jingjing didn’t hold back. She craved to tear her apart, but she couldn’t. However, if someone presented herself as an outlet for release, she wouldn’t turn it down.

Slap, slap, slap!

As soon as Xu Jingjing finished speaking, she raised her hand and fiercely delivered three more slaps, so swift that it shocked everyone present.

Xu Xiuxiu and Xu Qingqing felt their cheeks ache in empathy, Song Yuanhuan remained indifferent, Mrs. Xu’s eyes instantly teared up with sympathy, her hands holding the herbal prescription dropped it to the ground. Mr. Xu too remained silent, but the tight grip on his smoking pipe showed his unstable emotions.

"Si Ya..." Mrs. Xu, seeing Xu Fangfang’s face swell up like a pig’s head from Xu Jingjing’s hits, immediately started to call out Xu Jingjing’s nickname in a pained voice, seemingly wanting to stop her, but words of consolation just couldn’t escape her throat.

She wanted to speak, but her older daughter had wronged her younger daughter, whose pain they, as parents, couldn’t see, and she couldn’t bear to think about it. Thus, even though she couldn’t stand to watch such a scene and wanted to intervene, she ended up repressing her impulse.

"Xu Fangfang, you’ve certainly got some endurance, but a few slaps won’t cool my anger," Xu Jingjing said, her tone slightly sinister, like that of someone with a twisted personality, laced with cruelty and bloodlust.

"I can let you hit me until you’re appeased," Xu Fangfang tasted the metallic flavor of blood in her mouth, likely from being struck, so her voice was somewhat unclear. However, she stood upright, a picture of someone who would let Xu Jingjing vent without complaint.

Strangely, among those present, besides Mr. and Mrs. Xu, neither Xu Qingqing nor Xu Xiuxiu felt any sympathy for Xu Fangfang. Song Yuanhuan, who had seen his share of bloody scenes, couldn’t deny that slapping was minor for him, but since he was the only son-in-law there, he wisely made himself invisible, a transparent person without any presence.

The sounds of slapping echoed in the hall; Mrs. Xu had already turned into a crying mess, watching her older daughter being hit and her younger daughter doing the hitting—it was all too cruel for her, the agony was almost suffocating, yet all she could do was weep silently.

"Ah! My hand is starting to hurt," Xu Jingjing stopped her actions, waved her right wrist around, showing her annoyance at the pain in her hand.

Just when everyone thought Xu Jingjing would stop, she revealed an even more vindictive look, "However, I can use the other hand," said Xu Jingjing with a laugh as she watched Xu Fangfang’s pained and stunned expression. Although Xu Fangfang’s cheeks were swollen to a hard-to-watch extent, it somehow felt exhilarating.

"It’s really no fun. After just a dozen or twenty slaps, her face is swollen like this, and hitting her doesn’t even feel good anymore," Xu Jingjing complained slightly, raising her left hand and delivering a fierce slap to Xu Fangfang.

Xu Fangfang’s cheek almost twisted from Xu Jingjing’s slap.

"How about that? My left hand is not weak, is it!" Xu Jingjing’s expression was like that of a child seeking praise.

Xu Fangfang immediately looked up at Xu Jingjing with resentful eyes, which were somewhat frightening.

"Don’t look at me like that. If you keep giving me that look, all the beatings you received before will have been for nothing. Think about your son, if not yourself! You just need to endure a few more slaps and you’ll be free!" Xu Jingjing fearlessly met Xu Fangfang’s gaze, causing her pain but offering a ray of hope.

Sure enough, after Xu Jingjing’s words, Xu Fangfang paused briefly before resignedly repressing the anger and desperation in her eyes.

Xu Jingjing seemed satisfied with Xu Fangfang’s compliance, raising her left hand again ready to strike: "Si Ya, that’s enough!" Mr. Xu put down his large tobacco pipe and authoritatively stopped Xu Jingjing from hitting Xu Fangfang again.

"Not enough. How can I feel that it’s enough! Compared to the pain she inflicted on me, what I’ve done is far from enough!" Xu Jingjing stopped her movement, looking towards Mr. Xu, her eyes filled with rebelliousness and defiance.
