Chapter 705: Ye Liu slapped Qiu Bai ——-2
" How dare you!" Qiu Bai never thought not even in his dreams that the mers who lowered their heads every time he passed by them would actually dare to slap him and that too for everyone to see. " I am your elder——"
Another slap landed on Qiu Bai's face as soon as he spoke causing his face to turn to the side before he could finish speaking what he saying.
" Oh yeah?" Ye Liu who could not get pregnant even after trying for so many months and was now facing a lot of issues could care less about this mer being an elder. He only knew one thing and that was —— it was because of this mer that he could not get pregnant and was poisoned until his womb was destroyed.
If Yu Dong had not saved them when he and Shen Li decided to kill themselves, he was sure they would be lying under the ground six feet under, with worms eating their body and their graves deteriorating. Because of this man and his stupid grudges that stemmed from his useless pride they almost lost their lives.
Qiu Bai who was slapped until his mind went dizzy and his gaze unfocused immediately turned to look at the crowd watching the show as if they were looking at a drama happening. His heart went cold but he still shouted, " Are you all going to watch this silently? No matter what I am still their elder, how can they slap me?"
The crowd however remained silent and did not speak in his support. If this was only about Shen Li and Ye Liu, they might have asked them to leave Qiu Bai and handle him with the law but now the situation was different.
An innocent child was dead because of this mer's selfishness. The villagers might be selfish and greedy and often fought with Yu Dong in the past but now they were different, Yu Dong was their saviour and it was because of her that their village could produce oil and they could earn a regular income.
They already held Yu Dong in high regard and coupled with the fact that Qiu Bai actually went as far as deliberately making poisoned pickles and then sent them to Fang Chi because he wanted him to miscarry in case he got pregnant, they couldn't bring an ounce of sympathy towards him.
In fact, they thought what Ye Liu was doing was indeed correct! This man killed Yu Dong's child and he even almost killed Shen Li and Ye Liu, if not for Yu Dong who persistently tried to save them, they would be dead as well!
And all of this was because of Qiu Bai, this evil and heartless mer!
Qiu Bai understood that no one will come to his aid, his body was already hurting with Yu Dong hitting him with everything that she got little did he know that Yu Dong was trying to hold back while punching him.
If she really punched him with her real strength, he would have died with just one punch much less taking so many punches.
Ye Liu slapped him again and this time harder because he could hear the painful sobs of Fang Chi and the despair on his wife's face when she had to choose the dead child who was a girl to be removed from Fang Chi's womb.
He still could not forget the heaviness that he felt when he went to the shop and asked the coffin maker to sell him a coffin for a baby.
The shop owner who sold coffins had looked at him with sympathy and told him that they did not sell a coffin for a baby since they wished that no one would die so young and instead she had sold him a coffin that would fit in a child around six to seven years old with a heavy expression.
Even the woman who sold coffins and saw people die every once and now could not think of a baby dying yet this mer, who was supposed to be the bringer of a child to this world killed an innocent child knowing fully well how heartbroken Fang Chi and Yu Dong will be once they lost their offspring.
" How could you be this cruel! It was fine if you poisoned us but why Fang Chi? Even if Fang Chi gave birth to a daughter, she might have not been accepted by the authorities as the heir since she was not born by me and Brother Li!" Ye Liu threw Qiu Bai on the ground and raised his feet to kick him on the shoulder as the man tried to run. " Fang Chi is like a concubine, his children cannot inherit anything! You killed his daughter for what?"
After being kicked in the shoulder, Qiu Bai tried to get up but he couldn't instead he simply crawled away. He did not answer Ye Liu since there was no need for him to answer that question, what he wanted to say he has already said it all.
As he was crawling on the ground, he turned to look at Yu Tong who stood not far from him. Her eyes were red and she looked at him with a mixture of shock and disgust, her gaze cut deep into Qiu Bai's heart since she was his daughter whom he carried in his womb but he still reached out his hands and called feebly, " Tong Tong…"
Yu Tong looked away from her daddy, she was simply too disgusted by his actions. He has killed a baby? A harmless baby? Did he even stop to think about what will happen to her? Or her brother? Now that everyone knew that her father was a murderer they will surely push her away.
She will be ostracised and more importantly, she will never be able to raise her head in front of sister Dong from now on because she was the daughter of the mer who killed her daughter!
