Lin Nannan Beats People Up

The key point was, even if it hurt, they didn’t dare cry out for fear of being laughed at.

After a round of sparring, everyone had bruises on their faces, let alone their bodies.

They felt certain they’d be covered in bruises by the next day, with no chance of recovery anytime soon…

Thinking one day of this would be enough, their faces fell the moment they saw Lin Nannan coming over with her daughter again the following day.

But they couldn’t refuse.

Lin Nannan made it sound legit, and plenty of people supported her. Some even claimed that after sparring, certain discomforts seemed to ease, leaving them feeling better overall—which left those who’d actually took the beating utterly baffled, wondering if they were imagining the pain.

Those who didn’t suspect anything genuinely felt this way, especially since they knew Lin Nannan knew medicine and could make remedies. They had no doubts and believed she was there to benefit everyone.

The ones who got beaten had no one to complain to. They could only go home and have their wives apply medicine, crying out in pain and making their wives' hearts ache.

At first, the wives didn’t think twice about it, assuming their husbands were just training hard—something that had happened before, though never this intense.

But after several days in a row, while doing laundry, someone ended up complaining out of concern for their husbands.

As much as they pitied their men, there was little they could do. They couldn’t very well tell their husbands to skip training, so they discussed what hearty meals to prepare instead.

A woman nearby, nearly done with her laundry, pursed her lips and kindly reminded them, “You’d better ask your husbands tonight who they’ve been sparring with!”

Her words got everyone’s attention. Liu Amei had to ask, “What do you mean by that?”

“Just ask, and you’ll find out!” The woman didn’t elaborate, leaving with her laundry.

Everyone looked at each other nervously, a bad feeling settling in.

That night, Liu Amei and the other wives began questioning their husbands. When they learned it was Lin Nannan they’d been sparring with, they were stunned.

They weren’t fools—they knew immediately that Lin Nannan was doing it on purpose.

They had thought Lin Nannan was easy to bully, which was why they’d let the matter drop. Who would have guessed she’d turn around and target their husbands, beating them so severely? It was downright outrageous.

“Lin Nannan is doing this intentionally!” Liu Amei fumed, venting to her husband.

But Qian Jun didn’t overthink it. The pain was real, but since everyone was in the same boat, he winced and said, “You’re overreacting. Why would she do that for no reason?”

Liu Amei couldn’t explain, afraid that if she spoke up, Qian Jun would get angry. He hated it when she brought her old gossipy habits with her…

Originally, she had followed Qian Jun’s advice and avoided gossip. But this time, the situation was too tempting, and with Lin Nannan away from the base and Lu Hang not getting involved, she had quietly spread a few rumors. When no one seemed to notice, she grew bolder and subtly circulated more gossip around the residential compound. She never expected Lin Nannan to return so suddenly or for things to escalate like this.

Now, it was too late for regrets.

If she had known Lin Nannan would be so difficult and formidable, she would never have provoked her.

No amount of money was worth more than her husband!

Staring at the bruises on her husband’s body, she hesitated, unsure what to do.

“Hurry up and apply the medicine. Once you’re done, let’s sleep!” Qian Jun thought about tomorrow and winced, anticipating even more pain.

Liu Amei didn’t dare say more. She carefully applied the ointment, wondering how to resolve this situation. If things continued like this, her husband’s body wouldn’t be able to take it.
