Chapter 37: Night Before the Divorce the Villainous Family Can Hear My Thoughts!
Chapter 37: Remember, I Don’t Like Taking the Blame
"Ah!" The two sisters, Li Qingxue and Li An An, screamed simultaneously.
Li Qingxue’s cry was from pain. Five distinct finger marks appeared on her cheek, which burned fiercely, while her mouth tasted of blood.
Li An An's scream, however, was out of shock.
She stood frozen in place, her eyes wide as saucers, staring at Shen Cheng as if she couldn’t believe what she had just seen. She even thought she could feel a phantom sting on her own cheek.
"You…" Li Qingxue finally reacted, her eyes brimming with tears and grievance as she looked at Shen Cheng. "If a slap can please Mrs. Huo and clear up any misunderstanding between me and Xing... President Huo, I’m willing to take it."
"Heh!" Shen Cheng chuckled lightly, her gaze remaining cold and disdainful. She patted Li Qingxue’s cheek with her palm, tapping lightly yet mockingly. "Miss Li, are you okay?"
"Do you think I slapped you for Huo Xingjian?"
"No, no, no!" She wagged her finger and smiled enchantingly. "I did it for myself. After all, I won’t admit to something I didn’t do."
"But since you’re so determined to smear me with false accusations, I can’t just take the blame for nothing, can I? So I might as well make your claims true!"
"A proper slap has to leave marks, right? How can a slap not leave a single trace, with your cheek still all white and tender afterward?"
"See? Now this looks more convincing! But... it’s still not enough."
With that, she raised her hand again and landed another loud slap on the same cheek.

"Now this is proper, isn’t it?" Shen Cheng said, smiling radiantly as she looked at Li Qingxue, whose lips now had traces of blood. "Miss Li, remember this: I can take the blame, but I also enjoy washing it off with your face!"
"You…" Li Qingxue was left speechless, unsure how to respond.
Shen Cheng then calmly stood up and walked toward Li An An.
"W-what are you doing?" Li An An stammered in terror, her face pale as she backed away. "Brother Xingjian, help me!"
Of course, Huo Xingjian didn’t pay her any attention.
As for Huo Yushu, she was holding up her phone, camera rolling, filming the entire scene with great excitement.
Yes, she wanted to capture her awe-inspiring sister-in-law in action and send the video to their grandfather and her mother.
She even had the perfect title in mind: The Dashing Mrs. Huo Beats Up the Pretentious lotus flower Sisters!
Li An An kept retreating as Shen Cheng advanced, step by step.
Eventually, Li An An found herself cornered against a pillar, her back pressed tightly against it as if it were her only safe haven.
"What did you just say?" Shen Cheng asked, her fingers interlocked as she casually cracked her knuckles.
Her tone was languid yet carried a heavy air of menace.
"Shen Cheng, you… you wouldn’t dare—"
"You said I not only scolded Li Qingxue but also slapped her and pushed her out of her wheelchair, right?" Shen Cheng drawled, rolling her neck as she spoke.
Li An An gulped nervously, her eyes darting around in panic as she stared at Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng smirked. "Hmm, you’ve already seen how a slap works—I’ve just proven that much!"
"W-what do you want to do?" Li An An’s face turned ghostly white.
A terrifying thought began to take root in her mind, making her more and more frantic.
She turned her gaze toward Huo Xingjian, who wasn’t far away. "Brother Xingjian, look at her! She… she really slapped my sister just now. And now she’s… Ah!"
