Mo Xunxun's skin is tender; after being slapped, her face turned red immediately, with a palm print clearly visible. It probably won't be long before it swells.
Worried that Jian Yi would get angry, Mo Xunxun quietly pinched his arm, preventing him from moving.
Then, she straightened her body and pushed Jian Yi back a little, stepping forward and saying to Mrs. Mo, "Mom, all these years, it's been my unfilial behavior. You should hit me. If one slap isn't enough to relieve your anger, you can hit me a few more times. I only ask for your forgiveness. I'm sorry."
After Mo Xunxun finished speaking, Mrs. Mo indeed struck again. Another slap landed on the other cheek of Mo Xunxun's face.
Jian Yi watched from behind, his hands clenched tight and his teeth grinding. He wished he could go up there and hit that old lady, or at the very least, take the beating for Xunxun.
