Chapter 87: The Country Woman's Warm-Up

After a resounding slap, Jin Yu shook off her hand, ready for another go.

The tall maid, furious, grabbed a broom from against the wall and charged at Jin Yu, "You country bumpkin, you actually dared to hit me? Believe it or not, one phone call and you and that other offending bumpkin will be out on your ears!"

"Who's leaving?" Cold Moonlight stormed into the dining room, snatched the broom, and slapped the tall maid across the face.

Before the tall maid could respond, Cold Moonlight said, "That's right, we're country bumpkins, and once we go wild, we don't recognize family, let alone foes. If you know what's good for you, you'll keep from provoking us. This slap is just the warm-up from a country woman!"

The tall maid was seething with rage but found herself powerless.

With Jin Yu and Cold Moonlight so formidable, she stood no chance alone and had to seek backup.

Yet, as if on cue, the other maids busied themselves, some refilling the children's bowls, others serving dishes, each engrossed in their tasks.

At such a time, nobody wanted to attract trouble.

"Mommy is so cool!" Big Ya clapped her hands in admiration.

"Aunt Jin is amazing too!" Second Ya joined in with her applause.

Soon, Third Ya, Fourth Ya, and Sixth Ya were all clapping along.

Seeing this, Cold Moonlight inwardly panicked.

How could she engage in violence in front of the children? If Gong Xinli saw this, he'd surely accuse her of setting a bad example.

At that moment, Gong Xinli emerged from his study with a stern face.

He had just witnessed everything in the living room and dining room through the surveillance footage.

"Uh... Aunt Jin, please take good care of the kids. I, I'll be going now," Cold Moonlight attempted to make a quick exit.

But Gong Xinli blocked her way, deliberately preventing her from leaving.

The tall maid, thinking her backup had arrived, immediately started crying and complaining, "Mr. Gong, the housekeeper bullied me, and this woman hit me in front of the children, deliberately setting a bad example. Look at my face, they both made it swell."

Gong Xinli glanced at her and twitched his mouth, "It does seem a bit swollen."

"It is swollen! I was commanded by the old madam to take care of your daily needs, but now, I've been beaten up by these two country bumpkins. If the old madam finds out, she'll definitely be furious. Mr. Gong, you must give me an explanation."

"Don't worry, you'll get an explanation." Gong Xinli pulled Cold Moonlight to the dining table and forcibly sat her down.

Everyone thought Gong Xinli would severely humiliate Cold Moonlight.

Surprisingly, Gong Xinli slowly started massaging Cold Moonlight's hands.

While massaging, he said, "How could you do such rough work yourself? What if you hurt your hands?"

Cold Moonlight turned her face, staring at Gong Xinli, puzzled.

What trick was this Gong playing?

Sensing the atmosphere was off, Big Ya quickly pleaded for mercy.

"Daddy, don't punish mommy. It was really that aunt's fault; she wouldn't let Five Ya and mommy eat the ribs, so mommy and Aunt Jin had to teach her a lesson."

"Daddy understands." Gong Xinli gently stroked Big Ya's head, "Go eat your meal!"

Then, he personally went to Five Ya's room, carried her out, placed her beside Cold Moonlight, and softly instructed, "Eat well, no picky eating."

Five Ya asked pitifully, "Daddy, are mommy and I done reflecting? Do we have to go back after eating?"

"It's over, go eat with mommy now." Gong Xinli gave Five Ya a reassuring smile.

Instantly, Five Ya's face lit up with sunshine.

Gong Xinli picked up his phone, pointing at the tall maid, "You, come here!"
