Chapter 401 Begging to Sell Herself (1)
It turned out she was Tang Xin!
Mo Yan suddenly realized, her gaze falling back onto the young girl. Although she knew Xin'er had made a new friend, she hadn't met her yet. She didn't expect that their first meeting would reveal such a distressed appearance. Combined with the gossip from Yanzhi a few days ago and what Xin'er had said later, it seemed that the stepmother of this young girl was indeed a ruthless person who cared little about appearances.
Now, with her body covered in bruises, she had run to their home, likely unable to endure further inhuman abuse. Unless the root cause was addressed, she would continue to suffer...
Seeing her good friend Xin'er remain silent and hang her head, Xin'er felt extremely anxious. Unable to contain herself, she reached out and held Tang Xin's hand, which felt ice-cold due to her thin clothing. Worriedly, she exclaimed, "It's so cold today, why aren't you wearing even a cotton coat? What if you get sick?"
As she spoke, she hurriedly took off her fur coat and tried to put it on Tang Xin.
At this moment, Tang Xin finally reacted. She pushed away Xin'er's hand and walked straight to Mo Qingze, dropping to her knees with a thud on the cold ground. "Please, Master Mo, save me!"
This sudden kneel shocked everyone in the Mo family. Her plea, "save me," struck a heavy blow in each person's heart, causing deep sorrow.
Now that everyone could clearly see Tang Xin's face, they were all stunned. Even the youngest Yun Sheng was so scared that he buried his head in his brother's arms, her small body trembling, clearly frightened.
Tang Xin's face was swollen, with red and purple bruises visible. Finger marks were deeply imprinted on her flesh, her eyes squeezed into narrow slits, and a few strands of blood oozed from the corners of her mouth. She looked terrifying, more like a demon from folklore than a real person.

Mo Qingze, who was closest to Tang Xin, was deeply shocked. "How did it come to this!" he exclaimed in disbelief.
Xin'er, who had just regained her senses, teared up. She quickly knelt beside Tang Xin and appealed to her father, "Dad, please help Tang Xin! If she stays at Tang's house any longer, she'll be killed!"
Surprised that Xin'er would kneel and speak up for Tang Xin, Tang Xin turned her head and smiled gratefully at her, her eyes filled with tears.
Mo Qingze frowned and looked at Tang Xin, who was hoping for help. He sighed helplessly and said to Xiner, "If you want me to help, you must explain everything clearly."
Upon hearing this, Xin'er thought her father had agreed. She stood up joyfully and reached out to Tang Xin again. "Tang Xin, get up quickly. My dad will help you."
Mo Qingze frowned again at her words but did not refute his daughter.
Tang Xin cautiously glanced at Mo Qingze, hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up. However, when she tried to stand, she seemed either too weak or too heavily beaten that her body staggered. If Xin'er hadn't supported her, she might have fallen to the ground.
Unable to bear it any longer, Mo Qingze pulled out a chair from behind and placed it in front of her, saying gently, "Sit down quickly. If you have any difficulties, just take your time to explain. There's no rush."
Under Xin'er's persuasion, Tang Xin sat down somewhat awkwardly, subconsciously leaning towards the warmth of the brazier. She glanced at the few pieces of leftover peanut candy on the small table, swallowed unconsciously, and quickly averted her eyes, feeling ashamed. The rest of the family didn't notice, but Mo Yan, who had been observing Tang Xin, saw everything clearly. She stood up, took the plate, and walked to the kitchen, where she packed some peanut candy and a few pieces of sugar candy, then placed them back on the small table.
Next to her, Zhen'er was puzzled. He was about to ask why Mo Yan had brought out a large plate again after telling them not to eat anymore when Mo Yan gave him a stern look, stopping his question.
