Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Xu Ziling hit Xu Jianchen dozens of times without a care in the world. When she saw Xu Jianchen cry breathlessly, she hurled the baton onto the floor. “Xu Jianchen, you asked for it!” She cried coldly.

“Zitian! Zidi! Let’s go!” She ordered.

Zitian and Zidi followed Xu Ziling, as she strode out.

“Wahhh wahhh…” Xu Jianchen laid in bed, crying endlessly. Tears fell non-stop from his eyes and heartache filled his cute, little face.

Xu Jianfeng stepped inside the room with ointment. He reached his hand out, pulled down Xu Jianchen’s trousers to apply the ointment, and saw that he was incredibly bruised everywhere.

Xu Jianchen immediately pulled them back up, turned around, and ran.

Xu Jianfeng promptly caught up to him and held Xu Jianchen back. He shoved the bottle of ointment at Xu Jianchen’s chest and flatly said, “You can only get revenge on Xu Ziling when you’ve healed!”

Xu Jianchen sniffled and accepted Xu Jianfeng’s medicine. Then, he spun around and left, crying.

Xu Jianfeng watched the silhouette of Xu Jianchen’s back and sighed several times.

Xu Jianchen rushed back into his own room, then tightly shut the door. He balled up in a corner and cried.

“Wahhh wahhh…” Xu Jianchen’s nose watered and eyes teared up. With his head hung low, he tightly hugged his arms and ignored everyone.

The servants outside heard the faint sound of crying and sighed silently.

Xu Ziling headed back to her own room and violently swept everything that she could smash off of the table.

Bam bam bam…

But she still felt like it wasn’t enough, so she kicked the chairs and sent them flying.

“Zuiying, I definitely won’t let you off! You dare teach my second brother to drug me? Who gave you the guts to do that?” She cried coldly with clenched fists.

With that said, Xu Ziling kicked the chair to the wall with a violent bang.

“If you’ve got the guts to plot against me, then you’ve got the guts to suffer my rage!”

“Zuiying, you better not let me catch you! Otherwise, I’ll definitely make you live a fate worse than death!”

“I don’t love you one bit. I hate you. I hate you to death! Who let you go up against me at every turn? You asked for all this!”

…

Xu Ziling cursed non-stop and took her anger out by kicking anything that could be smashed. In the end, she took a seat in the corner and tightly clenched her fists until the knuckles turned white. Her eyes unleashed the ominously fierce glow of a wild wolf.

Zuiying let his brother out of the city to stay in an old, run-down house of straw.

“Brother, I’ll have to momentarily make you stay here. When I get paid, we’ll immediately move you into a better home!” Zuiying looked as though he blamed himself.

Zuiying’s complexion seemed pale. He smirked. “Little Ying, there’s no need to blame yourself. I understand. No matter how much money we have in the family, it’s all used to pay for my medical bills. Perhaps, I’d feel better if you said something like, ‘if you died sooner then-”

Zuiying quickly covered Zuifeng’s mouth, then shook his head. “Brother, don’t say something like that. My success is thanks to your support for me all these years. Otherwise, I would never have survived to this day. Whenever I come across a life or death situation, you are the first person I think of and so I try my best to survive. Brother, you’re my everything.”

“Then quit talking to me like a stranger. I understand that you’re in a tough spot, but I don’t feel like I’m suffering living here. What’s important is not letting that Eldest Young Lady harass you anymore,” said Zuifeng with an appreciative smile.

Zuiying nodded with brimming tears and forced a smile. “Brother, I’ll go tidy up the house a bit.”

Zuifeng nodded.

Growlll… All of a sudden, Zuiying’s stomach rumbled.

Zuifeng’s eyebrows started to furrow. “Little Ying, you haven’t had lunch, have you?”
