Chapter 712: Chapter 712: Absolutely nonsensical!

"You..."

Turning around, she saw the ugly man who had somehow, unknown to her, already stationed himself behind her, his cold gaze fixed firmly on her with unwavering persistence.

She swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"How did you... Ah!"

’Smack!’

Before she could finish her sentence, a hefty slap landed on Ya Juxiang’s face.

Ya Juxiang’s cheek quickly swelled and reddened, but she didn’t dare to shed tears or curse the ugly man like she had initially, because she knew, the more she behaved that way, the more ruthlessly he would treat her. She had suffered enough from this kind of punishment and didn’t want to endure it anymore.

"Sir, I... I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time."

She could only weep silently, looking pitifully at the ugly man, pleading with him.

But the next moment, another slap struck her other cheek, making her lip bleed. Stumbling, she crashed into the trunk of a banyan tree.

"Ah! Wha..."

Ya Juxiang could no longer hold back, and she started to cry out loud.

Why was her life so bitter? Being a wife to such a vicious man, always bruised and forced to do dirty work she never had to do before.

"Sir, I really know that I was wrong. I won’t dare do it again, please spare me."

She knew, if she didn’t plead now, once this ugly man took her back home, a severe beating would be inevitable.

"Who are you pretending to be pitiful for?"

Yun Mo coldly glanced at Ya Juxiang. He had seen her harsh words and fierce gaze just now.

He was assigned by their lord to keep an eye on this family. Did Ya Juxiang really think she could persuade him to betray the lord with a few words just because she was his wife? In these days, Ya Juxiang had been sweet-talking him quite often, trying to coax him into doing some evil deeds.

"You think I can be seduced by your face? If you dare to disrespect our lord and lady again, without seeking their permission, I can go ahead and ruin your face! You abhor me because I’m ugly, right? After I ruin your face, you’ll be just as ugly as me!"

"You..."

Ya Juxiang was startled by Yun Mo’s words, trembling, she dared not say another word.

"Let’s go, back home!"

Yun Mo roughly grabbed Ya Juxiang’s arm and dragged her away.

He and Yun Xiang thought they had kept a close watch, but they still let this woman escape. Fortunately, she didn’t dare to cause trouble in the lord’s house, otherwise, Yun Mo and Yun Xiang wouldn’t be able to evade the consequences, and they might even have to pay for their negligence with their lives.

...

"Ah!"

When they reached Clan Chief Ya’s house, Ya Juxiang was thrown onto the courtyard by Yun Mo. He closed the courtyard door carefully before turning around to look at Ya Juxiang, who lay sprawled on the ground.

"Brother Mo, what happened?"

Yun Xiang, hearing the commotion, had already joined Yun Mo and looked questioningly at Ya Juxiang.

"This cheap woman dared to sneak off while we were not paying attention, intending to cause trouble at the lord’s house. She even had the audacity to utter nonsense there, utterly oblivious to her place!" Yun Mo said, looking at Ya Juxiang.

"What?!"

Yun Xiang gasped in surprise at Yun Mo’s words.

"You..."

She strode over to Ya Juxiang, squatted down in front of her, and, reaching out her right hand, she grabbed Ya Juxiang by the neck, lifting her up.

"Cough... let go... what are you... I..."

Ya Juxiang, her neck being strangled, soon turned red from the lack of fresh air. She tried to push away Yun Xiang’s hand, but couldn’t move it even a tiny bit.
