Logically speaking, her husband doted on her to the bone and regarded her as his life. Shouldn’t her plea be somewhat effective? Even if it wasn’t effective, it still made sense. But why did he suddenly add another twenty lashes?
The leading bodyguard kept his head down and couldn’t figure out the reason behind this.
Could it be related to his heart…?
The bodyguard suddenly came to a realization and finally understood the reason behind these twenty lashes!
Rather than persuade him, could it be that her pleas only made him jealous?
Oh my god! Then their twenty lashes were truly too unjust!
The bodyguards didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. They didn’t expect Young Madam to plea for mercy for them, only to end up giving them another twenty lashes!
Zuo Weiyi was also shocked by the unexpected outcome of her actions. She couldn’t help but feel that Shi Yuting’s twenty lashes were somewhat inexplicable!
“Shi Yuting, why did you suddenly add anothert wenty lashes to them?!”
“Thirty lashes!” Shi Yuting’s face was very gloomy.
Zuo Weiyi was completely dumbfounded. She wanted to continue reasoning with him. “Shi Yu—”
“Young Madam!”
This time, the leading bodyguard dared to open his mouth and looked at Zuo Weiyi with great gratitude. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Please…don’t speak anymore.”
Zuo Weiyi looked at the bodyguard in surprise.
Shi Yuting glared sharply at the bodyguard and the latter immediately lowered him head again.
Zuo Weiyi looked worriedly at the bodyguard before turning back to Shi Yuting. She seemed to have understood something in an instant and could not help but look at Shi Yuting suspiciously.
Could it be that he just jealous?
Forget it. If she opened her mouth again, the bodyguards would probably be punished more severely. If that happened, she would really be a great sinner!
After thinking for a while, she could not help but turn around silently and walk into the house.
It was indeed a little cold after being out for so long. And unfortunately, the bodyguards were still kneeling in the snow to receive their punishment.
The heater was turned on in the house. Zuo Weiyi poured a cup of hot tea and sat on the sofa. After taking a sip, she felt her core warming up.
She looked out the window and admired the fluttering snowflakes. Another year had passed in a blink of an eye.
Not only was she married, she had even given birth to a pair of twins. Who would have thought that the illegitimate daughter that everyone had been targeting all those years ago would suddenly turn out to be the young madam of a wealthy family, as well as the granddaughter of an ex-president.
Even Zuo Weiyi herself had never thought that her life would one day undergo such an earth-shattering change.
Tomorrow was New Year’s Eve. It was time for her to visit her mother.
“What? The head of the Z Country’s Finance Ministry has been demoted? Damn, he actually embezzled so much money…200 million?!”
Nuannuan’s exclamation suddenly echoed through the living room as Zuo Weiyi was deep in thought.
With her cup of tea still in hand, she turned towards the TV Nuannuan was watching and saw the news.
As a citizen of Z Country, Zuo Weiyi recognized the man on the screen at a glance. Wasn’t he the Finance Minister, Ke Zhengfeng?
He had been arrested?
Wasn’t it rumored that he was an honest official? How could it be revealed that he had embezzled 200 million yuan?
Zuo Weiyi couldn’t help but become a little interested in this piece of news.
In the past, he was an honest official. The recent election conference also said that he was very likely to be elected as a representative of the National People’s Congress. Why was he suddenly arrested?
“Wow, the one who reported him was just a mayor…”
Everyone knew that in the officialdom, reporting one’s immediate superior was as difficult as ascending to heaven. But Mayor Xia was actually brave enough to do it!
Shi Yuting had just finished punishing the bodyguards as he joined them in the living room. He took the cup of tea from Weiyi’s hands and drank a sip.
