Su Meiya spoke with a scornful look on her beautiful face.

Shi Mei lowered her eyes and tried to hide the look of disgust in her eyes as she replied coldly, “Second Young Mistress, please don’t make wild guesses. She is now a maid because she has offended the Young Master.”

The young master had been blind ever since the fire that year.

There was a low chance of recovering his sight and additionally, Tong Hua left him.

This double blow caused the young master to leave the Shen Family to live alone on the island, and he started to keep himself away from the world. However, despite this, the young master was still the inheritor of the Shen Family. However, these cousins began to get greedy.

They would consistently visit the island. On the surface, they said that they were concerned for the young master. But the truth was that they had other intentions—they were worried that the young master would return to the Shen Family and affect their interests.

Not only that, but they were also trying to take over the position as the inheritor!

This second young mistress was one of them. She was here to get updates on the young master’s health condition. The young master’s chance of recovery was low from the start, and in addition to his refusal to seek treatment, he had very low chances of regaining his sight.

Even then, they were still worried about him. They would only be at peace if they saw it for themselves.

“Disobey brother? It seems like you are tired of living. You are looking for a lesson!”

Su Meiya was still grabbing onto Weiai’s chin and she tightened her grip as she spoke.

Her mum told her that Shen Shaobai was basically a handicapped person right now. Even though he still held the position of the inheritor, he was only holding onto it. If he continued to be blind, there would be no reason for a blind man to inherit the Shen Corporation!

However, he was indeed devoted. Su Meiya’s red lips reflected a cold smile as she stared at Weiai.

Before he turned blind, she was afraid of him.

However, she was no longer afraid!

She was merely a lover and a maid, bullying and punishing her was not a big deal. More importantly, she was his woman and by bullying her, she would be shaming Shen Shaobai at the same time!

It felt great even only by thinking about it!

Weiai lowered her eyes and looked at Su Meiya who was pinching her chin. Her pretty lips reflected an unruly smile and as she tightened her grip, Weiai began to feel pain on her chin.

Weiai did not want to tolerate that anymore and struggled free from her hand.

“How dare you avoid me?!”

Su Meiya was still worried about not having a reason to attack her. As Weiai avoided her, she felt pleased in her heart and pretended to be angry.

Slap—

At the next moment, she raised her hand up high and aimed for Weiai’s face, giving her a hard slap.

The crisp sound could be heard all around them for a period of time.

Weiai did not expect her to hit her so suddenly, so her body staggered and she felt a sharp pain on her cheek. Even her ears were ringing.

“Second Young Mistress, this…”

Shi Mei was shocked and wanted to say something, but did not know what.

After all, Su Meiya was the second young mistress, no one had the right to stop her from hitting Xia Weiai. However, Xia Weiai was the young master’s woman. Since she did not have any qualms about hitting her, it was obvious that she did not take the young master seriously.

“You hit me?”

Weiai straightened her body and asked Su Meiya in a cold tone as a red mark slowly formed on her face. Very soon, before Su Meiya could answer her, she continued, “You used your right hand to hit me, right?”

Hearing this, Su Meiya was stunned and had no idea why Weiai asked this question.

However, that was only for a short moment. Her body radiated an elegant aura and, due to the heels that she was wearing, she appeared to be one head taller than Weiai and was looking at her from above.

Su Meiya bent forward and raised her right arm, her voice laced with scorn. “Yes, yes, I hit you. And I used my right hand. Why, you lowly being, are you planning to seek revenge?”

Weiai covered her face and looked into her eyes. She thought about how she was forced to stay here and be humiliated by Shen Shaobai, and now, having to receive a slap from his cousin. She could tolerate this no more!

As she thought of this, she smiled coldly. “Not only will I return the slap, but I will also make it memorable for you!”

As she finished her words, she quickly reached out for Su Meiya’s right hand and bent her little finger in anger. At that moment, there was a loud cracking sound; it was as if her little finger was broken.

After that, Weiai tossed her hand away and let go of Su Meiya.

“Ahhhhh—”

Su Meiya screamed in pain and the place resounded with her screams.

However, she was sweating profusely and no longer possessed the elegance she displayed previously. In an embarrassing situation and her other fingers also hurting from her broken small finger, she could no longer keep her balance and fell to the ground.

Weiai’s actions shocked everyone around her.

Shi Mei was the first one to react to the situation. There was a complicated look on her face.

Xia Weiai was too careless and impulsive. She hurt the Young Master previously and now the Second Young Mistress. Second Young Mistress is a hard one to deal with, does she know how serious things will get if she gets on the Second Young Mistress’ bad side?

“Catch her.”

In pain, the trembling Su Meiya stared intently at Weiai, her eyes filled with loathing and hatred as if she wanted to swallow her whole.

Immediately, the bodyguards moved forward. They held Weiai in a convict’s position from each side.

Weiai bit her lips and kept silent.

At the same time, Su Meiya looked at her. Upon seeing how she was neither afraid nor begging for forgiveness, her eyes were filled with anger and hatred. “Bring her to the basement!”

Then Shen Family had strict family rules.

Shen Shaobai was always cold to others. The reason why he could take over the Shen Corporation at such a young age was not only his brains, it could also be attributed to his ruthless business methods. Similarly, when he was in charge of the Shen Family, every single person who made a mistake would be punished according to the family laws.

He was not biased. Even someone related by blood would be judged fairly!

The key was the ruthless methods.

This was why many members of the Shen Family were afraid of him.

His residence would always be equipped with a punishment room. And this was the same for the island.

The basement that Su Meiya was talking about was the punishment room where punishments took place.

“You dirty thing, how dare you touch me. I will teach you a lesson!”

Su Meiya spoke coldly. With her frowning face from the pain, it made her look malevolent.

Weiai was scared. But she knew clearly that being scared would not change the situation. Hence, she kept silent.

At that moment, Su Meiya stood up and stared at Shi Mei. “Why are you still standing here? Get the doctor here quickly!”

“Yes, Second Young Mistress.”

Shi Mei looked at Weiai, pinned down by the bodyguard. Upon thinking about what she would experience later on, she bit her lips and shifted her gaze away.

“Little sister, for now, I think you should not let Big Brother know of this. When I am done with her, I will explain it to him myself.”

Suddenly, Su Meiya added. Her eyes were like poisonous snakes, ready to attack anytime.

Shi Mei was stunned for a moment. She paused for a second and finally nodded her head. “Second Young Mistress, I understand.”

As she answered, she felt indescribable guilt.

She was clear about how the Second Young Mistress was like. Since Xia Weiai broke her finger, what she was going to experience later would be painful beyond death. At that time, the only one who could save her was the young master. However, she did not know why, but she did not want the young master to know about this.

Upon thinking about the young master’s display of concern for Xia Weiai, problems would arise if things continued down this trajectory.

Xia Weiai cannot remain by the Young Master’s side. If she remains here, she might become the second Tong Hua. Aren’t they sisters? How can the Young Master fall into the trap of Tong Hua’s younger sister after being hurt by Tong Hua? I will never allow that!

Not only that, but Xia Weiai is also at fault. She offended the Second Young Mistress and cannot blame anyone else for it. One should take responsibility for his or her own actions.

She would allow Su Meiya to ruin Xia Weiai!

Shi Mei became more determined as she sorted out her thoughts. She no longer looked at Weiai and instead, turned around and left the place quickly.
