The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 1361 - 1374: The Eldest Sister Acts as a Mother (18)
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi let out a terrified scream, each grabbing one of Yuan Le’s hands and rushing into the wooden house.
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi looked as if they’d seen something extremely horrifying, and Yuan Le was pale, his lips trembling violently.
Yuan Wei anxiously paced in circles, "Brother hasn’t come back yet... that man is here, he’s here...."
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi stared intently outside the door, shielding Yuan Le firmly behind them, a protection as impenetrable as a fortress.
"Xiao Le, don’t be afraid. Even if Big Brother isn’t here, Second Sister and Third Sister will protect you... we absolutely won’t let him hurt you."
Su Li: "....."
"Kids, have you all forgotten about me?" She was standing right there in the room, how could her presence be so weak?
Su Li’s voice reminded Yuan Wei, who quickly pushed Su Li towards the door, "Sister Su, you should leave quickly. That man might take his anger out on you."
In the past, that man was particularly concerned about his reputation. He rarely did anything rash outside and always maintained a foolishly honest appearance.
But now, ever since he took to drinking, whenever he drank, he became unrecognizable, like a terrifying demon, and anyone who tried to persuade him was doomed.
Just a moment ago, from a glance outside, the man’s steps were shaky, indicating he had just been drinking.
Su Li patted the back of Yuan Wei’s hand and said, "You all stay inside with Yuan Le; I’ll go out and take a look."
After saying this, she walked out without further ado.
Despite being extremely frightened, Yuan Wei and the others gritted their teeth and followed her out.
They thought, so what if they got beaten? As long as he didn’t trouble Sister Su, that would be enough.
"You little bastards, wild brats... just as despicable as your mother. Vanished for days, are you off to find your adulterous father?"
"Hmph, don’t even think about it... after eating so much of my food, you’d better come back here and work like cattle. A mother’s debts are paid by her children, don’t think you can escape."
"I’m your father, you ungrateful little scoundrels... get back home."
...
The voice, filled with vulgar curses, grew closer.
Su Li’s face turned cold.
One glance at the man was enough to discern his identity.
Because he bore an eight or nine-point resemblance to Yuan Qi.
Father Yuan’s steps were staggered, yet he moved quickly, soon reaching Su Li and the others.
Seeing the little ghosts hiding behind Su Li, especially Yuan Le... Father Yuan suddenly bared a hideous smile, "Found you, you little wild brat... try running, go on and run...."
While speaking, Father Yuan laughed maniacally and reached out to grab Yuan Le.
Yuan Le was petrified, his face filled with terror.
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi cried bitterly, "Dad, hit us instead. Xiao Le’s weak... please... don’t hit him...."
In the time they had spent here, Xiao Le had finally managed to gain a bit of weight, and his complexion had gained some color, but his frail body really couldn’t endure a beating from this man.
Several times, Xiao Le had been beaten into convulsions, barely surviving each encounter....
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi rushed forward, prepared to use their petite bodies as shields.
"Get out of the way, you worthless brats."
Father Yuan’s eyes filled with malice, his hands kept moving, and he placed all his force behind the kick aimed at the two little girls’ stomachs.
Su Li was beyond furious, "Do you all think I’m a dead body? No one dares to ignore my presence like that."
Though tipsy, Father Yuan’s mind was clear; he was merely acting insane under the influence....
What a perfect excuse for assault.
Sure, she was a live person standing right in front of him, but he just didn’t care.
When he entered Su Family Village, he had already inquired about her, just a slightly more capable girl.
And an orphan with no parents.
If she dared to play the hero, he dared to retaliate against her.
Father Yuan’s greasy gaze quickly swept over Su Li’s face and body, his eyes lighting up.
This young girl had such delicate skin, unlike any rural girl.
Especially her snow-white complexion, just like Yuan Qi’s mother.
No, even fairer than Yuan Qi’s mother, surpassing any female intellectual from the city.
Originally, Su Li intended to grab Father Yuan’s hand, but midway, she changed her stance, curling her index and middle fingers into claws aimed at Father Yuan’s eyes.
These filthy, murky eyes should just cease to exist to avoid disgusting others.
"Ah...." The next second Father Yuan clutched his eyes, letting out a blood-curdling scream.
Blood seeped through the gaps between his fingers.
The entire world seemed to fall silent.
Yuan Wei and Yuan Zhi stared with wide eyes at their once-overbearing father rolling on the ground.
Yuan Le was also dumbfounded....
Seeing their father in such a miserable state, the trio of siblings, instead of feeling terrified, felt... a profound sense of satisfaction.
Yuan Wei uneasily shuffled, stealing a glance at Su Li.
She feared that Sister Su might discover her own dark little thoughts.
A good child would never hope for their father to be hurt... just like they felt every night....
However, this strange feeling was just... too good.
She even hoped the man’s cries on the ground would last a bit longer....
Father Yuan rolled around on the ground a few times before struggling to stand.
Without the cover of his hands, his eyes were crimson, bruised with deep indents above his eyelids and a black bruised ring around his eyes.
Yuan Wei thought she was a bad child because she actually... felt regret....
If Daddy went blind, he might not be able to chase after them anymore, right?
"Bitch...." Father Yuan squinted, his severely injured and swollen eyes barely opening a sliver.
Already half-crazed, the man seemed to go completely mad.
He charged like a raging bull, wearing a fierce and malicious expression, heading straight for Su Li, "I’ll kill you, you bitch."
Father Yuan’s once passable looks were now entirely engulfed by malevolence, his face covered in bulging veins. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
To look at him now, he bore no resemblance at all to Yuan Qi and Yuan Wei, truly strange indeed!
Being ambushed by a loathsome woman was the deepest disgrace for Father Yuan.
He momentarily abandoned his primary target of hatred: his youngest son, Yuan Le, and turned to attack Su Li.
Though Father Yuan’s body had weakened due to drinking, his previously robust build still remained.
He believed capturing a frail woman would be an easy task.
These pretty women were always restless, thinking they could stir up trouble with nothing but their seductive looks.
Just like that damned runaway wife of his.
All he did was keep her at home, and occasionally beat her when unhappy, what of it.
If her appearance had been more proper and dignified, why would anyone have remembered her?
