This wasn't the first time Lin Jiandong had been hit. Whenever Chen Shulan was upset about something that happened outside, she would take it out on him.
But she usually had a reason. This time, it was completely out of the blue.
Chen Shulan was seething with arrogance. "Who provoked me? Who else could it be but you? If you weren't so useless and incompetent, would I have to be jealous of other people?"
"If you had gone with Leng Yuan to rescue those trafficked children, that honor would be ours today. But now, all I can do is envy others. Tell me, how can you be so damn useless?"
The more Chen Shulan spoke, the angrier she got. A single slap wasn't enough to vent her rage, so she started scratching and clawing at Lin Jiandong.
Jin Meifeng was returning from gossiping with the neighbors. Usually, her daughter-in-law would have dinner ready by this time, and she was hurrying back to eat.
But just as she reached her front door, she saw Chen Shulan hitting her son.
