Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Slap in the Face
But the moment they returned to the Mo Family, their demeanor changed instantly.
From the second she saw Mo Jun, Mo Xinyu wanted to kill her.
At this moment, she couldn’t hold back anymore and stepped forward to give her a harsh slap—
“Slap!” The loud smack echoed as Mo Jun’s head tilted from the impact, her cheek feeling a fiery sting.
What was more important was the rage in her heart, as if there was a blazing fire burning within.
But she couldn’t fight back since two bodyguards were holding her down firmly.
“You slut, you never thought you’d see this day, did you? Try to run if you can, but no matter where you flee, you will never escape from the palm of our hands!” Mo Xinyu’s face twisted, not a trace of gentleness to be seen, only ferociousness.
This was completely opposite to her usual demeanor of a well-bred lady.
Clearly, she no longer deigned to pretend in front of her.
Zhang Qin stood by her side watching coldly, without the slightest intention to stop the abuse, as though Mo Jun wasn’t her own daughter.
Of course, Mo Jun wasn’t her biological daughter, but this truth hadn’t been unveiled yet.
“My mother, you just stand by and let her bully me like this, without doing anything?” Mo Jun sneered at Zhang Qin, her words dripping with sarcasm.
Zhang Qin feigned a troubled look, “Junjun, you really did wrong this time, and Mom can’t even help you. What you did was too much, so I can only side with the just and not with kin.”
So much for siding with the just and not with kin.
Mo Jun’s laugh grew colder, “Then tell me, what have I done wrong to deserve such humiliation?”
“You don’t know what you did wrong?” Mo Xinyu sneered in anger, “You schemed against my fiancé, deliberately causing me to lose face at the engagement party, and you even thought about stealing the inheritance that belongs to me. After doing so many despicable, shameless, ungrateful things, you still don’t think you did anything wrong?!”
“I schemed against Chu Yi?” Mo Jun’s lips curled with mockery. She stared at her with piercing dark eyes, sharp as searchlights, “Do you really think it was my plot, rather than his own will? Mo Xinyu, I never thought you could fail so miserably at being a person, living in such self-deception.”
“Shut up!” Mo Xinyu sent another slap flying over, and though Mo Jun wanted to dodge, she still got hit squarely.
“Mo Jun, I’m telling you, everything in the Mo Family is mine. The Mo Family raised you, and you don’t know how to be grateful, instead committing so many ungrateful acts. How can you be so despicable and shameless? Who gave you the courage to scheme against me and delusionally compete with me for the Mo Family’s inheritance? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? Do you think you’re in any position to compete or fight against me?”
Mo Jun chuckled lowly with her head lowered.
For some reason, her laughter seemed eerily chilling.
“Shameless? Mo Xinyu, that phrase, I will return to you one day. No…”
Mo Jun looked up, her gaze cold and steady on her, “Everything, I will return everything to you. You don’t believe it? Just wait and see.”
“You…” Mo Jun’s attitude suddenly made Mo Xinyu and Zhang Qin feel uneasy.
It was as if she knew something.
But it was impossible for her to know. On this whole world, only the three of them were aware of it.
They would rather die than reveal any secrets, so there was no way Mo Jun could possibly know.
Thinking this, Mo Xinyu regained her confidence, smirking disdainfully.
“Mo Jun, you are an illegitimate daughter who can’t see the light of day. Without us, you are nothing. I’m very curious, on what grounds do you fight me? What gives you the audacity to oppose me?”
