459: More slaps.

459: More slaps.

The trouble which Nana started, she met at home when she returned at around 6 in the evening to the old Zhang mansion.

She was deliberately late, hoping that nobody would be around at that time.

She was familiar with the schedules of the elders so she knew that at this time, grandma Zhang would still be out with her friends from the ancient tea processing class.

Grandpa Zhang would be still be out with his old golfing friends and her husband would still be at the office.

Ever since he started working, he returned between eight to nine.

Like a thief who was riddled with guilt, she opened the front door and snuck in, tiptoeing slowly with her high heels in her hands.

She was just about to reach the steps leading upstairs when she was suddenly yanked from the back by the hair.

“Aaaahhhh..” she cried out.

The shoes dropped from her hands and she instinctively reached her hands up to shake off the hands which were gripping her hair tightly.

It was one of the maids, grandma Zhang’s personal maid in fact.

The maid was looking at her with a deliberate smirk as she pulled the hair which made Nana incessed.

She was the madam of the house so how dare a lowly maid grab her by the hair.

“Let go of you wretched thing.” she shouted.

“I am Zhang Xian’s woman, your mistress.” The maid didn’t respond to Nana’s screeching.

She looked at grandma Zhang instead for instructions.

“Drag her to the living room.”  The maid smiled, all too glad to carry out the instruction.

Another maid that was eager to help also stepped up and she grabbed one of Nana’s arms.

No matter how much she resisted, and struggled, she was no match against the two maids.

Both of them dragged Nana across the floor slowly while following grandma Zhang who was also walking slowly as if she was in no hurry.

She was walking slowly, deliberately to drag out Nana’s humiliation.

They finally dropped her down in the middle of the living room mercilessly.

but kept their hands on her shoulders stopping her from moving.

Like most family meetings, mostly everyone was present.

Grandpa Zhang, his brothers, Zhang Xian, Zhang An and a few other wives and daughters from the family.

Nana found herself on the receiving end of many harsh glares and judgemental looks.

She inched forward, trying to crawl in Zhang Xian’s direction but the maids kept her in place.

In her usual fashion, she blinked once and her eyes welled up.

The tears started falling from them even before she could be punished.

She turned her tear filled eyes to Zhang Xian.

“Yue..” she cried out.

“Slap her.” grandma ordered.

Nana turned her head in surprise and a heavy slap fell on her cheek.

Nobody in the living room flinched, not even a single gasp was heard from them.

“Again.” grandma Zhang ordered.

The maid carried out the order as instructed, slapping Nana who was crying real tears this time.

More people walked into the living room, and they happened to be Nana’s relatives.

One of them was her mother, another was her sister and her niece that had conspired with her to fool Zhang Bo.

All of them were somewhat frightened when they saw what was happening.

It was almost like a scene out of a palace harem drama where the concubine was dragged out for punishment by the queen who had long been looking for a way to get rid of her.

Grandpa Zhang pointed at them and he said, “When you accepted hundreds of millions from us as a token of gratitude for taking care of Xian all these years, you agreed to stay out of our Zhang family’s business so what is this?

Instead of being true to your words, you turned around and decided to do the opposite.”  One of the bodyguards moved swiftly like a hawk going in for prey and grabbed Nana’s niece.

She was also thrown down beside Nana and immediately, she started crying.

“It wasn’t my idea, it was aunt who suggested that we should do it.” Terrified out of her mind, she confessed immediately.

“Yes, we had no part in this.” Nana’s mother shouted out, loudly.

Disbelief veiled Nana’s eyes quickly as she realized that she was being thrown under the bus by her mother and niece in order to save their own skins.

It wasn’t her idea to take her niece on the blind date it was her mother’s idea.

She had suggested that since Nana was not an official wife in the Zhang family then her niece Liu could take her a chance and see if she could seduce Zhang Bo.

“Nana how many times have i warned you not to interfere in the affairs of our Zhang family?” grandpa Zhang asked.

Nana didn’t respond to the elder and looked at Zhang Xian.

“Yue..” she called out softly.

“Slap her again.” Grandma Zhang ordered.

The cycle was repeated again, another slap and more tears.

Nana was yet to realize that each time she addressed Zhang Xian by the name Yue, grandma Zhang was angered even more.

This was because the old woman knew that it was a form of manipulation meant to remind Xian of the past.

Nana would do all it took to drag Xian down into the mud with her.

She would never let him go, not willingly.

Grandpa Zhang continued addressing Nana.

“Our family has rules but you have flaunted the rules over and over.

You spilled our secrets to an outsider, you stole money, not just once but twice and wasted over one hundred million.

You gave an interview to a reporter without consulting any of us.

Don’t think that we don’t know how you have been insulting and calling Xiaobo a little bastard.

You went to Alix’s mall and picked out all sorts of expensive items but refused to pay.

You cannot be kept here any longer.

I do not care about the dying promise which Xian made to your father.

I will not allow you to take advantage of our family anymore.

If we keep you around any longer, i am afraid that you will become more and more entitled.”  Nana’s eyes widened and she shook her head.

“It was our mistake to accept you in the first place.” Grandma Zhang admitted.

“We were so blinded by greed and overwhelmed with happiness that we made a foolish decision.” Grandpa Zhang stood up and he sighed.

“I will be the sinner on my son’s behalf.

Everyone here is a witness to what i am about to do.

If i meet your father in the afterlife Nana i will apologize to him.” He looked at the bodyguards and said commandingly, “Take her to Hongkong, this entire family too, up root them all immediately.”  He pointed at Nana’s mother, sister and niece.

The three women shook their heads and looked at Nana, urging her to say something.

“Yue, you can’t do this to me, i am your wife.” Nana cried out.” Don’t you recall all that my father did for you?

You would not be alive today without us?

You owe me Yue, your life is mine.”
