Ye Jingjing's hideous, distorted, and ashamed appearance was presented before all the Ye family members.
No one had imagined that this gentle, obedient, and kind girl actually had such a disgusting and nauseating appearance.
Even now in her current fragile and helpless state, there was not a shred of sympathy in their eyes.
Thinking back on how she had deceived them all these years, they still harbored anger.
Ye Lu Ping was truly infuriated in that moment.
His whole body felt unwell.
It was bad enough that his own daughter was evil at heart, but now she actually had such filthy thoughts, such indecent thoughts...
In his entire life, although Ye Lu Ping had plotted and schemed in the business world, he had never done anything that went against fundamental principles or harmed the greater good. Yet now he had given birth to such a daughter, one with such a reprehensible appearance.
"Bring me the whip!" Ye Lu Ping yelled harshly at the servants.
The whip!
The whip was...family law.
It would only be used when someone had committed a very big mistake.
From childhood until now.
It had only been used once on Ye Jinghuai.
That time, Ye Jinghuai's body was whipped until skin broke and flesh split open. He had lain at home for a whole week, unable to get out of bed.
And now.
It was going to be used on Ye Jingjing.
When Ye Jingjing heard her father's words in that moment, she was also frightened.
She could still remember the bloody scene when Ye Jinghuai was whipped years ago.
She still remembered writing in her diary back then that she wished she could kill Ye Lu Ping with a knife.
But now.
Would such a harsh punishment really be inflicted on her?
No!
Although she had undergone countless surgeries since childhood, she had always been given anesthesia. If the anesthesia wore off and she felt even a little pain, she couldn't endure it and would ask the doctor to give her more. How could she possibly withstand a whipping from her father?
She was so scared that she immediately crawled up from the floor, grabbed onto Yun Yu Qing's clothes, and cried, "Mom, I don't want it, I don't want Dad to whip me, I don't want it."
At this moment, Yun Yu Qing also felt upset and angry.
Seeing her daughter in such agony, of course her heart ached since she had raised her with her own hand. But when she thought about the many filthy thoughts and snake-hearted cruelty in her mind, she also wished she could beat her to death.
"Mom, I was wrong, I know I was wrong. I'll never try to harm anyone again. I'll never like Third Brother again. Mom, I don't want Dad to hit me. My body can't withstand his beating. He'll whip me to death. Mom, save me..." Ye Jingjing wept copiously.
At this moment, her appearance was so pitiful and touching.
But Yun Yu Qing did not yield one bit.
She just looked coldly at her daughter without saying a word.
"Mom, you don't want me to die, right? Mom, you don't want me to die..." Ye Jingjing pleaded desperately. "It took you so much effort to raise me this big all these years. Every time I was sick and hospitalized for surgery, you were always worried. You won't just stand by and watch Dad beat me to death, will you Mom..."
"Enough!" Yun Yu Qing pushed Ye Jingjing away.
Ye Jingjing looked at Yun Yu Qing in disbelief, unable to accept that the mother who loved her so much could treat her this way.
"Every time you were sick, I felt it was my fault. Every time I saw you being wheeled into the operating room, I blamed myself for not giving you a healthy body. I wished I could give you my own life. But now, I'd rather see you beaten to death than continue to spoil you with my pity and indulgence, allowing you to become the indecent creature you are now."
Ye Jingjing could not believe it.
She could not believe that her beloved mother, who loved her most, could say such words.
That she could look at her with such disgust.
She was utterly devastated.
Shaking her head, in that moment she felt as if she had been abandoned by the entire world. She screamed hysterically, "I became this way, I became like this, wasn't it because of all of you?! Wasn't it because you didn't give me a healthy body? I've been locked up at home since I was little. I can't go out like normal people, can't run, can't make friends, can't fall in love, I can't do anything. I have to endure the torment of my body. Isn't all this caused by you?! I became so twisted, wasn't it all because of you? Shouldn't I hate you? Shouldn't I hate every single one of you? Why can you all be healthy while I can't? Why can you do so many things that I have to suppress my own feelings?!"
Ye Jingjing's piercing screams shocked everyone.
This side of her truly made them feel their love for her had been as disgusting as eating shit.
"Yes, I like Ye Jinghuai, I like him!" Ye Jingjing admitted unapologetically. "But is it wrong for me to like him? No, it's your fault! I've grown up seeing so few people around me. As I grew up the only men I saw were Eldest Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother. What choice did I have?!"
"Ye Jingjing!" Ye Lu Ping roared furiously, the whole house seeming to shake.
"You should be glad I like Ye Jinghuai and not Eldest Brother or Second Brother. After all, Ye Jinghuai isn't really your..."
"Slap!" Ye Lu Ping suddenly delivered a resounding slap across Ye Jingjing's face.
Ye Jingjing was struck dumb.
Since she was little, no one had ever spoken a harsh word to her, let alone hit her.
And now, she had really been hit.
Slapped across the face with such force that her ears seemed to have lost hearing.
Large teardrops rolled down her cheeks.
Her pitiful appearance no longer elicited any sympathy from anyone.
"Give me the whip!" Ye Lu Ping's face was ferocious.
The servants had long since brought out the whip but didn't dare hand it to Ye Lu Ping until now.
They could only pass it to him with trembling hands.
Ye Lu Ping said, "Today I will teach you a lesson no matter what!"
Ye Jingjing looked at her father in terror.
She understood very clearly.
She really was going to be beaten.
She would really be whipped with the cruelest whip striking her body.
Her whole body shook.
She shook as she watched her father walk towards her step by step.
She retreated step by step...
"Smack!" The thick whip lashed viciously across Ye Jingjing's body.
"Dad!" An Nuan suddenly rushed forward, shielding Ye Jingjing with her own body.
The whip landed hard on An Nuan instead.
Ye Lu Ping was clearly shocked in that moment, his hand shaking.
At his side, Ye Jinghuai also couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.
This reckless woman!
"I told you about Jingjing's matters not because I wanted you to punish her this way. I only hoped that understanding her psychology would allow us to help her together." An Nuan shouted loudly at them.
