Happily, a letter from his sister arrived, but disappointingly, she never mentioned coming back, nor did she talk about the frustrations in her marriage, or ask him to stand up for her.
Lady Yun didn't say these words, but Yun Chuchu was not foolish and could easily guess.
Because of this, she felt even more guilty.
She cried for a long time until she was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
As for Shang Rong, after being scolded by Yun Zheng, she no longer cried or made a fuss. Even when she was emotional, she held it in with grievance, not daring to show it.
To her, Yun Zheng was fierce and scary. If she provoked him, there would be no good consequences.
Seeing the little girl so afraid of him, Yun Zheng was quite satisfied and deliberately put on a stern face to frighten her.
"Behave yourself from now on. Don't cry or make a fuss in front of your mother, or I'll hit you. My slaps are very painful, one slap and I could break all your bones, understood?"
