“Understood! I guarantee we’ll complete the mission!”

Ming Yue smiled like a blossoming flower, then broke the seal—without even waiting for her father’s reply—and flipped into full-blown madwoman mode.

In the next instant, wails erupted throughout the Ming family living room. Right in front of the entire Liu clan and the entire Ming clan, Ming Yue was absolutely thrilled as she beat someone mercilessly.

As she kept beating, she even started playing music to match the rhythm.

Meanwhile, Old Lady Liu felt as though the sky had fallen. She berated Liu Qinxin and Ming Yue soundly, then scrambled to get up and shield herself—but Ming Shuo promptly pinned her shoulders down.

She looked up in confusion. “Ming Shuo! What do you mean?”

“Mom, Ming Yue and Qin Qin are right. Killing calls for death; this is what Liu Fan owes Ming Yue. If you won’t agree, just because he dared to treat my daughter like that, I’ll make sure he pays dearly too. So please bear with it—it’ll be over soon. Rest assured, Ming Yue knows exactly what she’s doing. Besides, Qin Xin and I are keeping a close eye on things, so nothing serious will happen.”

Ming Shuo gave a fake smile as he pressed Old Lady Liu back onto the floor.

Wang Zhi had originally intended to plead for mercy.

But seeing the scene, she didn’t dare say a word.

Still, unable to tolerate Ming Yue’s outrageous behavior any longer, she quietly pulled out her phone and discreetly recorded the horrifying, brutal spectacle unfolding before her eyes.

What she planned to do next was obvious.

Liu E, standing nearby, was also pulling off the same stunt.

Ming Yue naturally noticed.

But she ignored it.

After all, there was someone else under this roof who wanted to keep family matters hidden from public view—so she had nothing to worry about.

So after catching a glimpse, she simply kept beating away while playfully giving Wang Zhi and Liu E a “yeah” sign.

“Hey, Auntie and Auntie of our little Lai Lai—make sure you snap some nice shots for me, okay? Sure, I may be a bit rough around the edges, but please don’t let anyone think I look ugly. Come on, one, two, three—cheese!”

“You…”

Wang Zhi and Liu E were utterly stunned and quickly pulled their phones back.

But Ming Shuo intercepted them.

With both hands, he snatched the phones from their grasp, calmly deleted every photo and video they’d just taken, emptied the recycle bin, and then handed the phones back.

Afterward, Ming Shuo smiled warmly and patted the two ladies on the shoulder. “If you know your place, I can lift you up to the heavens out of love for Qin Xin—but if you’re foolish enough, I can bury you alive myself.”

“Ming Shuo!”

“Ming… Shuo…”

Wang Zhi and Liu E each called out, but their tones were different.

One was completely dumbfounded, never imagining that the son-in-law who’d always been so easygoing at the Liu household could have such a sinister, downright frightening side.

The other, besides being shocked, deliberately added a touch of tenderness and pitiful weakness—her signature move. Ever since she first tasted a man’s affection, she’d been confident no man could resist it. Pair that with seductive glances and an intoxicating aura…

But…

Before Liu E’s flirtatious looks and alluring scent could even register with Ming Shuo, he wrinkled his nose in distaste and turned to her:

“What’s wrong? Are you trying to act all horny in broad daylight in my house, or are you feeling amorous? You’re embarrassing me and Qin Xin—get far away!”

“Ming…”

Liu E instantly lost her composure. Her delicate face, even with makeup, couldn’t hide the bruising and purple marks, and she nearly burst into tears in front of everyone.
