[With a crisp sound of “Hua”, the vase fell to the ground. Xiao Shu turned around and saw the vase that he accidentally knocked over while running. His delicate face turned pale instantly.]

　　[“Xiao Shu, what are you doing?” A young lady walked down the European-style carved spiral staircase. After seeing the debris on the ground, an angry look appeared on her face. Her beautiful face became distorted and terrifying. She raised her hand and slapped the child fiercely in the face…]

　　Seeing this, Gu Qianjing snapped shut the romance novel “The Domineering Boss’s Sadistic Love” that she was reading, with two small flames of anger burning in her eyes.

　　As a Cancerian^[1]Zodiac Cancer -> family oriented people, known for their love of home and family, Gu Qianjing is single, but she is full of maternal love. She likes to raise her cubs online and do it online, but the thing she hates most is torturing the little boy.

　　What did the little dumplings do wrong? They are so cute.

　　So angry!

　　Gu Qianjing decided to go to the refrigerator and get a bottle of ice-cold fat house happy water^[2]refers to any soft -sugary- drinks to quench her inner anger, but the moment she stood up, her eyes went dark.

　　When she opened her eyes again, Gu Qianjing saw a skinny little boy curled up in the corner opposite her, which was covered with delicate floral wallpaper.

　　The boy was about four or five years old. His eyes looked particularly big because he was too thin. He was staring at Gu Qianjing. On the marble floor between the two of them, fragments of a broken ceramic vase were scattered all over the floor.

　　A pale and weak ankle was exposed under the child’s pajamas. The skin was scratched by the fragments of the vase and was oozing bright red blood.

　　”You are injured.” Gu Qianjing took a tentative step forward.

　　The little boy’s back had hit the corner of the wall. He had nowhere to retreat and finally closed his eyes in despair. His long and thick eyelashes trembled violently, revealing his fear at the moment.

　　He closed his eyes tightly, but the pain he had imagined did not come. Instead, he was embraced in a sweet and soft embrace.

　　Holding the skinny child in her arms, Gu Qianjing shouted to the housekeeper who had just arrived at the scene, “Prepare iodine and band aid, Xiaoshu is injured.”

　　The scene before her made Gu Qianjing very sure that she had traveled into the book “The Domineering Boss’s Sadistic Love” that she was reading just now, and the little boy in front of her was none other than her own biological son of the same identity, named Lin Shufeng.

　　Gu Qianjing felt sorry for this child who was tortured by his own mother, so she was deeply impressed by him and called out his name immediately.

　　When the butler heard the order, he hurried to find the first aid kit, which also proved that Gu Qianjing’s judgment of her current identity was correct.

　　As she walked downstairs with the child in her arms, Gu Qianjing couldn’t help but mutter, “Your mother is such a bastard. She will get her comeuppance sooner or later for torturing you like this!”

　　There was a look of confusion in Xiao Shu’s dark eyes, which then gradually dimmed. He must have heard it wrong.

　　Gu Qianjing carried Xiao Shu to the living room and sat him down on the large European velvet sofa.

　　The housekeeper quickly brought over the first aid kit. He rolled up his sleeves, opened the lid of the iodine bottle, dipped a cotton swab in iodine, and prepared to clean Xiaoshu’s wound.

　　Gu Qianjing took the cotton swab from the housekeeper and said, “I’ll do it!”

　　After hearing these words, Xiao Shu, who was originally curled up in Gu Qianjing’s arms, suddenly felt his little body tremble violently. He was worried that Gu Qianjing would deliberately hurt him again.

　　”Don’t be afraid.” Gu Qianjing comforted him softly, “I will be gentle, but there may be ceramic fragments in the skin, and the foreign body must be washed out. It will be a little painful, just bear with it, okay?”

　　After saying that, she put Xiao Shu on the sofa, carefully treated the wound with a cotton swab dipped in iodine, pursed her beautiful smiling lips, and blew gently on the wound. The cool air could relieve the pain of the wound.

　　The huge contrast in Gu Qianjing’s attitude before and after did not arouse suspicion from other people in the villa, because the original owner’s personality was fickle. She could be a kind mother in the last second and a lunatic in the next. Everyone was accustomed to her fickle personality.

　　After applying anti-inflammatory medicine on the treated wound, wrap it with a bandage.

　　Gu Qianjing stretched out her hand and wanted to carry Xiaoshu to the bed to rest.

　　Unexpectedly, when the child saw her reaching out her hand, his dark pupils trembled violently, and his little body shrank deep into the sofa.

　　According to Xiaoshu’s experience, after the tenderness, people^[3]she will go crazy.

　　Seeing the child so frightened, Gu Qianjing had no choice but to ask the housekeeper to take Xiaoshu to the room to rest.

　　After the housekeeper left with Xiao Shu in his arms, the living room returned to its peaceful state. Outside the huge French windows were beautifully trimmed green plants, with the occasional chirping of a bird.

　　Gu Qianjing sat down on the sofa and leaned her head on the soft backrest. She didn’t know if it was because she had consumed her energy from traveling through the book, but she felt extremely tired.

　　She closed her eyes, her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her porcelain-like face. Her skin seemed transparent in the faint sunlight. The picture was as beautiful as an oil painting.

　　At this time, Gu Qianjing’s mind was filled with Xiao Shu’s pale little face. Seeing the child with her own eyes, her heart ached even more.

　　In the original book, the original owner seduced Lin Mingqi, the young president of Lin Group, after a dinner party. After a night of passion, the original owner became pregnant, and the original owner married into a wealthy family because of her son.

　　The original owner thought she would become a phoenix from then on, but she didn’t expect that what was waiting for her was a widowhood-like marriage with no concern.

　　Lin Mingqi came back occasionally, and apart from visiting the child, he would not say a word to her.

　　Over time, the original owner’s mental state gradually became problematic.

　　She pretended to be a good mother in front of Lin Mingqi, but started to torture Xiao Shu after Mr. Lin left.

　　Seeing fear and tears in Xiao Shu’s eyes, which looked very similar to Lin Mingqi’s, made the original owner feel an addictive pleasure.

　　When Xiaoshu was a little over one year old, the original owner thought the parrot was too noisy and strangled it to death in front of Xiaoshu. From then on, Xiaoshu suffered from aphasia and could no longer make any sound.

　　Later, in a variety show about children, the original owner’s bad behavior was exposed, and Lin Mingqi divorced her.

　　Later, Lin Mingqi married his childhood sweetheart, Bai Yueguang^[4]white moonlight. Under the care of stepmother Bai Yueguang, Xiao Shu eventually became a painting genius, but he never spoke again.

　　Shortly after divorcing Lin Mingqi, the original owner drove off the cross-river bridge in a trance. The car collided with a huge rock on the shallows and exploded, killing the original owner on the spot.

　　Thinking of the fate of the original owner, Gu Qianjing’s eyelashes trembled slightly.

　　Now that she has entered this world, she must work hard to change the plot and change the fate of herself and Xiao Shu.

　　Hearing footsteps approaching, Gu Qianjing opened her eyes and saw a servant in a gray uniform walking towards her.

　　There was no description of the servants in the villa in the book, and Gu Qianjing did not recognize the middle-aged woman in front of her.

　　She sat up straight, raised her thin eyelids and looked at the middle-aged woman’s face, “What’s the matter?”

　　The woman folded her hands on her belly and stood respectfully in front of Gu Qianjing. Hearing this, she half lowered her head and asked respectfully,

　　”Madam, that little thing broke your vase. How should we punish him?”

　　Hearing her words, Gu Qianjing’s beautiful peach blossom eyes widened, “What did you say?”

　　She couldn’t believe her ears. A servant actually dared to call Xiao Shu “little thing” and said such vicious words.

　　”Ma’am, I mean, I can punish the little thing however you want, so as not to dirty your hands.”

　　After the initial shock, Gu Qianjing calmed down.

　　She raised the corners of her lips and asked in a sparse and normal tone, “So what do you think the punishment should be?”

　　The maid thought for a moment and replied, “Madam, why don’t you let him have dinner and make him kneel on the cobblestone floor of the second-floor balcony.”

　　Gu Qianjing’s heart was shocked. The book did not describe in detail how the original owner tortured Xiao Shu. Now that she heard it with her own ears, she was so angry that she was about to explode.

　　”Okay.” Gu Qianjing laughed in anger, a wicked smile appeared on her cold face, “Your opinion is good.”

　　The maid smiled happily after being praised, “Madam, I will do it now?”

　　Gu Qianjing didn’t want to look at the maid’s disgusting face, so her eyes fell on her gorgeous crystal nails. Her tone was calm but very oppressive, “Okay, let’s go now. Don’t eat. Go to the second floor balcony and kneel on the cobblestones.”

　　”Madam?” the maid raised her voice, “Are you talking about me?”

　　Gu Qianjing stood up, looked at her in an extremely oppressive manner, and said word by word, “It’s you, go now!”

　　After making sure she heard Gu Qianjing’s words clearly, fear gradually appeared in the maid’s eyes. She opened her mouth, but couldn’t utter a word. A feeling of despair swept over her whole body, and she collapsed to the ground.

　　The maid’s name was He Chun, and she was originally Xiao Shu’s nutritionist.

　　Soon after arriving at the villa, He Chun gradually observed that the hostess Gu Qianjing did not like Xiao Shu. Every time Gu Qianjing ran into a wall with the male owner, she would torture Xiao Shu in private to vent her emotions.

　　Grasping Gu Qianjing’s psychology, He Chun simply cooperated with Gu Qianjing to torture Xiao Shu. She learned about various methods of torturing children without leaving any traces on the Internet, and provided them to Gu Qianjing.

　　After venting her emotions, Gu Qianjing would often reward He Chun with many benefits, and He Chun would become more and more demanding.

　　It is precisely because of this that He Chun knows Gu Qianjing’s methods better than anyone else, which is why she is even more afraid.

　　After Gu Qianjing gave the order, the housekeeper and the security guards took He Chun to the balcony on the second floor. He Chun knew she could not escape, so she could only kneel down, hoping that Gu Qianjing would calm down soon.

　　The moment she knelt on the ground, a piercing pain came from her kneecap. He Chun’s nose felt sore and tears of pain welled up in her eyes.

　　Most of the methods that Gu Qianjing used to torture Xiao Shu were provided by He Chun. She never imagined that now she would have to suffer the consequences.

　　Xiao Shu had originally lain down in his room, but Gu Qianjing’s abnormal behavior today and the dull pain in his ankle made it impossible for him to fall asleep.

　　Hearing the noise outside, Xiao Shu got up, stood on tiptoe to open the door, and walked his thin body through the long corridor. He saw He Chun kneeling on the balcony crying.

　　Xiao Shu blinked his big obsidian eyes, and the fog in his eyes deepened.

　　According to previous experience, he should be the one kneeling on the cobblestones, but now it is He Chun, whom Gu Qianjing trusts the most, who is kneeling there.

　　Everything is so abnormal today!
