Wu Pang said smugly, "Who would keep an eye on a crazy woman who commits suicide? It's best if you come back and take care of her yourself!"

Wu Mei wiped Mother Wu's tears. Her gaze fell on the bruises on Mother Wu's arm. She bit her lips and pressed the tip of her tongue against her molars as she revealed a vicious smile.

Wu Pang's actions completely exhausted her last bit of patience. Wu Mei twisted her body and grabbed Wu Pang by the throat in a swift and fierce manner, causing him to fall to the ground. She lifted her leg and kicked him hard in the chest... Yang Shan was so frightened that she shielded Wu Yi behind her and showed no intention of helping.

Wu Mei grabbed Wu Pang by the collar and lifted him up. She tightened her grip on his throat with three fingers until his face turned purple and he suffocated.

"This is how you guys treated her, isn't it?"

Wu Mei glared coldly at Yang Shan and Wu Yi before letting go.

Wu Pang's legs turned to jelly and he wanted to crawl far away. Wu Mei squatted down and pinched his arm. Every spot corresponded to the wounds on Mother Wu's body...

"If Mom commits suicide again, I can send you to accompany her!"

Wu Mei moved closer to Wu Pang's ear and whispered, "She likes you the most. If you can't pay her back in this life, you'll have to pay her back in your next life!"

"But I won't let you die so easily. Do you know that there were many torturous punishments in ancient times?"

"Coincidentally, I like to research these things. If anything happens to Mom, I will tie you up and torture you to death!"

Wu Mei looked up and her eyes shone with a cold gleam. Staring at Wu Yi and Yang Shan, she warned, "If she has any more wounds on her body, I will pay you back ten or a hundred times more! You guys can give it a try and see if I dare to do that?"

Wu Mei stepped on Wu Pang's palm and crushed it. The sound of bones breaking could be heard clearly.

Everyone was stunned by her bloodthirsty and violent behavior. Mother Wu threw the scissors on the ground and shook her head vigorously. She kept saying, "Mei'er, Mom will be good. Don't be angry! Mom won't cause trouble again! Really..."

Wu Pang was in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweat. He felt like death was right in front of him and his body was trembling with fear...

His teeth were chattering as he begged for mercy in a hoarse voice, "Don't worry, we will definitely take good care of her! We won't let her get hurt again!"

Wu Mei took two deep breaths before letting him go. She wiped her fingers in disgust, not wanting her hands dirty with anything related to Wu Pang!

In the villa, Li Nanchen was jolted awake from his sleep. He wanted to hug the woman beside him, but he ended up hugging the cold air.

His eyes suddenly flew open and he looked at the empty bed. A strong sense of unease washed over him!

It was dark outside the window. Just as Li Nanchen was about to rush out to find Wu Mei, she pushed open the door while dragging her tired body...

Li Nanchen's voice was hoarse as he asked, "Where did you go?"

Wu Mei did not respond. She took the initiative to wrap her arms around Li Nanchen's waist and buried her head in his chest. As she listened to his racing heart, she closed her eyes to absorb his warmth.

Li Nanchen sensed her sadness and hugged her tightly. He suppressed his panic and coaxed her gently, "Do you want me to pour you a cup of honey water? I'll help to warm your body and your mood will improve as well."

Wu Mei nodded. Looking at Li Nanchen's back as he boiled the water, she relaxed and said, "Don't make it too sweet. I'll gain weight."

Li Nanchen replied dotingly, "You really need to gain weight. Otherwise, when the wind blows, I'll be worried that it will blow you away..."

Listening to his sweet words, Wu Mei pretended to be grossed out on the surface, but she couldn't help but feel happy inside.

Li Nanchen leaned against the bedhead and embraced Wu Mei in his arms. She held the glass with both hands and pressed her back against his firm chest. She could feel their two hearts gradually beating at the same pace. Li Nanchen gently pressed his head against the top of her head and his large warm hand held hers in his palm. He murmured, "I hope that time can stop at this moment, for eternity."

Wu Mei was amused by his childishness. "Even in your dreams, it should be infused with reality."

Li Nanchen did not refute her. Picking up the book on mental illnesses that was placed on the bedside table, Wu Mei flipped through it...

Ding dong. The notification sound signalling that he had received a message rang out from his phone.

It was news from Bi Fang saying that he would be back from overseas tomorrow. Li Nanchen asked about his flight information and arranged a time to pick him up. He lowered his head and wanted to discuss with Wu Mei about going with him, but he realized that she had fallen asleep at some point in time.

Wu Mei was still holding the book and she leaned her head gently against his shoulder. Her breathing was steady and there was a smile on her face.

Li Nanchen slowly took the book out of her hand and placed it by the bedside.. Holding her in his arms, they fell asleep together.
