Chapter 215 Surviving 4 Years
Wang Jingmo was terrified and desperately tried to make a sound, but could only manage to utter "uh-uh" sounds.
As Li Mo'er was about to lean closer to Wang Jingmo, her hands began to roam restlessly over his body.
"Bang—"
The door was kicked open, and Chu Xiaohuan barged in.
He had only knocked on the door because he thought Wang Jingmo might be resting.
As a result, Shen San rushed over with Shen Zicen, and he knew that something bad had happened, so he simply kicked the door open without knocking.
Shen San watched as Li Mo'er went in and didn't come out for a long time. He was worried that Wang Jingmo would be bullied, but he couldn't directly step in, since he wasn't sure who that person was.
So he went to find Chu Xiaohuan first, but Chu Xiaohuan wasn't in the room at the time; only Qingzhu was comforting the crying Niannian.
He immediately turned around and went to Shen Zicen's place. Just as he brought Shen Zicen over, he saw Chu Xiaohuan knocking on the door.
Seeing the scene before him, Chu Xiaohuan was so angry that his eyes were seeing stars. He grabbed Li Mo'er by the collar and punched her.
Shen Zicen quickly went to the bedside, picked up Wang Jingmo, and tenderly tidied his messy hair.
Li Mo'er covered her face in disbelief. The punch was so hard that she could feel her teeth loosening.
"Chu Xiaohuan, how dare you hit me."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiaohuan knew that she was using this body as a gamble that he wouldn't dare to make a move.
He glanced back at the pitiful Wang Jingmo, then began punching and kicking Li Mo'er.
He had practiced kung fu, so he naturally knew where to hit most and where there would be no aftereffects.
He beat her repeatedly until he was exhausted.
During this time, neither Shen Zicen nor Wang Jingmo tried to stop her. Even Shen San kept his head down, staring at his toes, pretending not to hear Li Mo'er's screams and curses.
Chu Xiaohuan delivered the final punch, saying, "Don't think I'm really afraid to make a move."
Chu Xiaohuan waved to Shen San, signaling him to carry Li Mo'er back.
Wang Jingmo's mood had calmed down, but she was still trembling slightly and had lingering fear.
Upon seeing Wang Jingmo, Chu Xiaohuan finally remembered why he had come here.
Niannian has a fever, and he wanted Wang Jingmo to treat her.
But seeing Wang Jingmo's condition, it's best not to trouble him; he'll go directly to Doctor Wang.
However, Wang Jingmo insisted on taking Niannian to see a doctor after learning that Niannian had a fever. Unable to dissuade him, Shen Zicen and Chu Xiaohuan had no choice but to take him to find Niannian.
The next morning, everyone in the manor knew that Li Mo'er had been punished the night before, but no one said anything.
This time, Li Mo'er was kept in bed for three months. As for why a simple external injury required three months of rest...
This was because Li Mo'er was afraid of dying, and she had been drinking the medicine that Wang Jingmo had specially prepared for her without interruption.
However, after Li Mo'er got up this time, she never saw those husbands in the mansion again.
Starting that night, Wang Jingmo moved into Jishetang and lived with Doctor Wang.
Chu Xiaohuan, partly due to the Empress's summons and partly because he was fed up with Li Mo'er's repeated disgusting behavior, simply returned to the capital.
However, he left Niannian in Luocheng, where Shen Zicen usually took care of her. But every now and then, Niannian would go stay with other people for a while.
Shen Zicen was staying at the security escort agency, and he had originally invited Shen Ziche and Su Yanli to stay with him.
However, Shen Ziche found the escort agency too noisy, so he moved into Feihua Pavilion instead.
Su Yanli originally wanted to return to Lijia Village and live in that small house, because it held memories of her.
Wang Jingmo was worried that Su Yanli would be reminded of the past, so he persuaded him to stay here, since Yunzhi usually had to learn medicine from his mother.
Su Yanli didn't want to trouble anyone else; he just wanted to be alone quietly.
Thinking back, she had bought a mansion back then, but she found moving too much trouble, so she had been living in the Shen mansion ever since.
Since he can no longer live in the Shen residence, he will clean up that other mansion and move in there.
Otherwise, the servants in the Shen household would have nowhere to go. Before Chu Xiaohuan left, he specifically instructed that only five or six women be left for Li Mo'er.
One person was responsible for taking care of her on a daily basis, two people were responsible for her meals, and the remaining two people were responsible for monitoring her and occasionally cleaning the house.
These women were specially selected by Shen Zicen from the escort agency; they were definitely capable of keeping Li Mo'er in check.
In addition, Shen San also lived in the mansion. He was in charge of managing these people and would also report Li Mo'er's situation to Shen Zicen from time to time.
They no longer restrict Li Mo'er's movements at all, but she has to take them with her when she goes out.
Niannian is still young and doesn't know anything about her mother, but her fathers always tell her that her mother loves her very much.
Niannian was exposed to martial arts at the镖局 (镖局 is a type of security escort agency) and practiced morning exercises with everyone every day, learning kung fu. Her punches and kicks were all quite impressive.
However, Yunzhi's condition seems to be not good, and a shadow has been left in the little boy's heart.
Since being beaten last time, Li Mo'er has repeatedly mocked and even physically assaulted her.
After all this torment, Yunzhi became taciturn, stopped smiling, and stopped speaking.
Only when he's with Niannian does he act like a child, occasionally teasing her, but he still doesn't want to speak.
But he still followed Dr. Wang to learn medical skills in his spare time. Because he didn't speak, the little boy had already started to write.
Occasionally, when Yunzhi encounters Li Mo'er on the street, he becomes so frightened that he trembles and hides behind others.
Four years have passed in the blink of an eye. Over the years, they have gathered at the mansion every year, but of course, it could not be the Shen mansion where Li Mo'er is.
Sometimes, when they missed her too much, they would have Shen San light a sleeping incense while Li Mo'er slept, so they could secretly take a peek at her.
Only when he is asleep does he resemble her in a way.
Several husbands waited bitterly for four years, while the modern-day Qian Duoduo has only lived for a month.
During this short month, she spent all her time with her family, but her mind was always on Su Yanli and the others, and she often sat blankly to the side.
Qian's mother saw it all and felt deeply for her. She would always stroke Qian Duoduo's hair, silently comforting her.
Qian Duoduo looked at the calendar on the table. She had been back for twenty-eight days, and the month would be over in two more days.
That day, Qian's mother took her to worship Buddha and burn incense. Qian Duoduo didn't want to go, but her mother kept persuading her, as she didn't want her daughter to stay in her room every day.
"Duoduo, the masters at Putuo Temple are very efficacious; they can observe celestial phenomena and predict marriage."
Marriage?
Qian Duoduo thought of her lover in another time and space. Could this marriage be foretold for them?
