40: Chapter 40: Crippled_1 40: Chapter 40: Crippled_1 The tears were not feigned, but rather, as Yang Ruxin grasped her hands, there was no way to pull away, and suddenly, she felt an inexplicable pricking pain that she couldnât pinpoint the source of, which made her unable to hold back her tears.
âYang Dani, are you asking for a beating?â Yang Ruban stood up, he and his twin sister Yang Ruyu naturally wouldnât stand by and watch her being bullied.
âExactly, Yang Dani, how can you bully your sister?â Feng Caie, seeing her precious daughterâs condition, also felt heartache, âHow can you speak like that?â
âYou worthless freeloader, shut your mouth,â Yang Ruxin suddenly shouted sternly, her glare so sharp it was terrifying.
The previous agreement to take turns doing chores had always been neglected when it was the second wifeâs turn, with Xun Hui taking on nearly all the tasks.
Everyone had a right to speak up, but this woman had no ground to.
She completely ignored Yang Ruban, that little brat.
Feng Caie, with her mouth agape, truly found herself unable to speak.
âIf weâre talking about sisters, this one here is my real sister,â Yang Ruxin pointed at Sanni, âLet me tell you, even a rabbit will bite when cornered.
My mother is still unconscious, feverish and repeating, while your entire family here is enjoying the good life.
And now this white lotus is preaching to me about filial pietyâŠâ
The entire family was shocked silent by Yang Ruxinâs domineering attitude, with nobody daring to speak.
Yang Ruxin then turned to look at Yang Peili, âGrandfather, I wasnât joking before.
Iâve got nothing to lose, so I donât fear those with something to lose.
If Iâm going to starve to death anyway, then Iâll drag the Yang Family down to Hell with meâŠâ As she spoke, she pushed Yang Ruyu away.
Yang Ruyu stumbled, and if she hadnât grabbed onto a nearby table, she would have fallen.
The moment she touched the table, the pain was so excruciating that tears began streaming down her face.
âYou littleâŠâ Yang Ruban was a spoiled child and, being at the impetuous age of twelve or thirteen, when he saw his sister being bullied, he roared and charged at Yang Ruxin.
Several onlookers, including those like Anshi from the An Family, didnât intervene and even wore smiles, thinking that Yang Ruxin was about to be hit.
However, no one even saw how Yang Ruxin moved, when the sound of a snap was heard, followed by Yang Rubanâs pig-slaughtering scream.
Yang Ruxin grasped Yang Rubanâs swinging fist with one hand, and with a lift of the other, his arm was dislocated.
âMy god, itâs murderâŠâ Feng Caie, seeing her sonâs arm ruined, immediately started to scream.
Yang Ruxin threw her a deadly glance, âIf you donât want him to die, then shut up.â
Feng Caie choked back her cry with a howl.
Sanni was utterly dumbfounded; her elder sister wasâŠ
âToday I want to make it clear to all of you, anyone who dares to bully the widows and orphans of our main house, Iâm willing to stake my life and drag them down to Hell with meâŠâ Yang Ruxinâs expression was cold and severe as she looked down at Yang Ruban, who was crying with snot and tears streaming, âToday is just a lesson.
Remember, from now on, steer clear of me⊠or I will really turn you into a one-armed personâŠâ With that, she squeezed his arm and pushed it forward, producing a crunching sound, before she let go.
âAhâŠâ Yang Ruban fell to the ground, crying even harder, âIâm disabledâŠâ But then he suddenly stopped crying, moving his right arm, âWhy is it okay?â A trail of snot was still hanging from his lips, with another on a freefall trajectory.
Perhaps feeling itchy, he raised his hand to wipe it off, but ended up smearing the thick snot all over his sleeve.
