Chapter 429 Torture
"Grandpa, the person has been brought over."
"Alright, just tie her to the chair."
When Mu Xiaoyu was in a daze, she suddenly heard someone speaking. It was an unfamiliar male voice, but soon she heard a familiar voice. The owner of this voice was none other than Grandpa Li, who had called her just today.
Even though Mu Xiaoyu was usually very well-mannered, she almost couldn't help but curse the old man's ancestors when she heard his voice.
The situation is now quite clear. Because of her divorce from Li Chenxu and her disrespect towards Old Master Li during that phone call today, this guy holds a grudge against her. Now that he's brought her here, he's probably plotting something to deal with her.
Mu Xiaoyu had been hit hard on the head with a stick earlier, and now her head was throbbing. The thought of her now being in Old Master Li's hands made the pain even worse.
She tried hard to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt like they were filled with lead, and she couldn't open them no matter what she did.
And so, Mu Xiaoyu fainted again in a daze. When she woke up again, she was splashed with cold water.
Although the weather has warmed up a lot recently, it's still only a few degrees Celsius. Besides, when Mu Xiaoyu was tied up, she was only wearing a thin coat that she wore in the villa. Now that she's been splashed with cold water, she immediately woke up from the cold.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Old Master Li sitting a few meters away from her, leaning on his cane. When he saw that she was awake, he immediately gave her a cold look and said, "Awake?"
"Don't you have eyes? Can't you tell whether I'm awake or not?"
Mu Xiaoyu's temper flared up. Even though she still liked Li Chenxu, she hated him to death. Now that Old Master Li had done this to her, she would be crazy to tolerate it like before!
Grandpa Li never expected that Mu Xiaoyu would become so bold as to say such outrageous things, and he was so angry that his eyes widened.
"Mu Xiaoyu! You better behave yourself. If you really anger me, you'll be the one who suffers!"
"Am I not suffering now? Mr. Li, just say what you want. Do you just dislike me and want to torment me, or is there something else? You're so carefree all day long, but I don't have that much time!"
Grandpa Li didn't speak, but his eyes narrowed dangerously as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a sinister gaze.
After a moment, he said to the person beside him, "Go over there and slap her twice, teach her a lesson. She's been married to Chen Xu for several years, and she hasn't learned a single rule!"
It was only then that Mu Xiaoyu noticed that there were several burly men standing next to Grandpa Li. Well, since Grandpa Li had brought her here by kidnapping, how could an old man like him have the strength to deal with Mu Xiaoyu? Naturally, he had to let others do it.
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but sneer inwardly, while also feeling incredibly unlucky. This time, no matter the outcome, she probably wouldn't be able to leave Old Master Li's place without suffering a severe blow.
The thought had barely crossed his mind when a burly man walked up to Mu Xiaoyu. The next second, without any mercy, he grabbed Mu Xiaoyu's hair, pulled her head towards him, and then slapped her hard across the face several times.
Mu Xiaoyu had never been slapped in the face before, whether in this life or the previous one. After these slaps, she was completely stunned, her ears were ringing, and she even experienced the feeling of seeing stars that was described in books.
Pain was her first feeling.
But the more it hurt, the more Mu Xiaoyu's temper flared up.
She's lived almost two lifetimes, and her combined age isn't much less than that of Grandpa Li. She knows very well that showing weakness is the best way to avoid suffering.
But unfortunately, she's unwilling now!
Mu Xiaoyu sat there blankly for a while before the dizziness and pain subsided.
"Now, do you know how to speak properly?"
At this moment, Old Master Li suddenly spoke again. He seemed quite satisfied with Mu Xiaoyu's pained expression, and now he had a smile on his face.
Mu Xiaoyu shook his head, which was throbbing with pain. He gritted his teeth and looked at Old Master Li. After a while, he laughed and said sarcastically, "Speak properly? I think you're the one who's not speaking properly. Don't let your men lay a hand on me. I think you should be the one to get slapped a couple of times to learn how to speak properly!"
After Mu Xiaoyu finished speaking, before Grandpa Li could say anything, the burly man who had hit her earlier slapped her twice more across the face.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't even need to look in the mirror to guess that her face must be swollen, and she wondered how swollen it looked, maybe even like a pig's head.
There was even a faint taste of blood in her mouth, which almost made Mu Xiaoyu vomit.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm the raging anger and hatred she felt towards the Li family.
Mu Xiaoyu looked up at Old Master Li not far away, a chill creeping over her. Even now, she didn't regret liking Li Chenxu. No matter what happened now, just as her mother had said, Li Chenxu's kindness to her, and his feelings for her back then, were genuine.
But these are one thing, and the Li family is another.
When she was reborn, she was preoccupied with finding the murderer who killed her. Therefore, she never held a grudge against the Li family for their past mistreatment of her, or for the various ways they secretly tried to trip her up.
After all, the person she was with was Li Chenxu, not the Li family.
But things are different now. She's already divorced Li Chenxu, but the Li family still won't let her go. Even now, they're still using such vicious methods to deal with her!
Mu Xiaoyu almost laughed. She used to think that if someone disliked another person and wanted to harm them, there must be a reason; it takes two to tango.
But after experiencing so much, she suddenly realized a truth: in this world, some people are born with black hearts. These people hate someone for no reason at all.
Simply because you hate someone, or for some trivial reason, you might take action against them.
Just like the current Old Master Li, Mu Xiaoyu can't even understand how such a person could have a son like Li Chenxu. It's simply unbelievable!
