Well, that was such a shame. Luo Xin, who has been watching the fiasco tsked, initially wanted Lin Yan to learn a small lesson. Still, she didn"t think that he would be able to escape. She sipped on her wine and felt that it was a shame. She shouldn"t have let the boy go. If not for her husband, who threatened to change his heir, she would have never let go of Lin Yan. The boy was a good toy, easy to subdue, and submitted to her will with such ease.

It was a pity that his temper that she had spent so much time correcting to be more suitable for a pet with so many difficulties was now back. She has often spanked him to knock that defiance out of his body, but now it was back again. All her hard work was apparently in vain. All men deserved to be beneath a woman"s feet, begging and yearning for their attention.

That"s where they belonged, especially guys like Lin Yan, who thought themselves the dominant ones but were secretly willing to be dominated. It was hard on her to find the perfect pet, and he was so promising. She could have played with him for a relatively long time before she broke this toy of hers.

"Mistress, I-" Fang Zimo, who returned immediately, kneeled in front of Luo Xin. He knew he was going to be punished. He was rather foolish to waste time teaching Lin Yan a lesson. He should have just dragged him to Luo Xin. But upon seeing him after such a long time, Fang Zimo couldn"t control his hatred. It was all his fault! If Lin Yan didn"t run away, he wouldn"t have been reduced to his current state!

"Zimo," said Luo Xin softly, picking up a jade cylindrical roller. She stared down at him with a sympathetic expression. "Lie down on the bad, and prepare yourself. It seems you haven"t learned enough. When your master orders you to do something, you should do what you were told, not try to use your own brains. That"s not how a pet acts."

"But-"

"Zimo!" Luo Xin"s tone turned harsh in an instant. She reached out and clutched on Fang Zimo"s jaw, gripping it firmly in her hand. "Good dogs do not retort. They answer with a woof, now give me a woof like a good boy and do what mistress asked you to."

Fang Zimo felt his cheeks burn from humiliation, but he still let out a "woof" and went to stand up, but suddenly he felt a sharp burning pain on his calves as he dropped on his knees. Startled, he looked up at the woman in front of him. "Mistress?"

"Dogs don"t walk on their feet, Zimo. They crawl on all fours. So crawl for me."

"Someone save me" was the only thought Fang Zimo had before he crawled on all fours and went to lie on the bed. Two seconds later, his pants were ripped off. He felt the cold skin from her hands brush against his skin, then something cold and sticky trickled down the crack of his b.u.t.t. After that, it was nothing but sheer agony and humiliation as he begged for forgiveness.

"We can"t let them get away with this." The Lin brothers had waited for Su Wan to go to sleep before they all left their rooms and went to arrange an emergency meeting in Lin Yan"s room. They discussed the ongoing issues with Luo Xin and her attempted kidnapping and abuse of Lin Yan.

Because Madam Zheng was sleeping with Su Wan, none of the Lin brothers were worried about Su Wan eavesdropping on them.

Lin Chen clenched his hands into fists making his knuckles crack, and hit his right hand into his left palm as he jumped up in anger. "We need to teach a good lesson to both Luo Xin and Fang Zimo! That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He was so young back then, but he was already so scheming! If not for him, second brother wouldn"t have suffered so much!"

"We can"t rush," said Lin Jing, pressing Lin Chen on the shoulder and making him sit down back in the chair. "Let"s start with Fang Zimo first. When you learn to hunt, you start from the weakest instead of the strongest, so don"t rush."??e?????o?e?. c??

Lin Chen and Lin Yu have hunted more humans than the number of animals their elder brother has hunted "....." ????

"We are better than you in this elder brother!"

Thought Lin Chen and Lin Yu consecutively, they shook their heads and remained silent. Whatever, they will suppress themselves for now and deal with this thing in a low-key manner, and once they get their hands on Luo Xin, they will teach her how to be a person!

"W...why not look for the info...information of those who died?" said Lin Yu. "She must have killed a few boys in her house, r..right, second brother? If we can scare her t..then she will go crazy and might c..confess?"

"I don"t think she will get scared so easily," said Lin Yan with a conflicted expression. "It"s not easy to drive an already crazy person even madder."

Lin Chen sighed, then rubbed his face with his hands. Dragging his hands down across his face, he sneered. "Fine! Today we will just settle with Zimo. We deal with Luo Xin once Second Uncle arrives. Eldest Uncle told me that Luo Xin"s son is no good. He doesn"t have any presence in the officialdom. Yet he lives a life full of luxury; as long as we get a grip on his dirty secrets, we will get our hands on Luo Xin."

"Her son will be too busy to take care of himself even if she v...vanishes," said Lin Yu, chiming up from the side.

Lin Yan sighed and nodded. "Let"s go with this, but how are you planning to teach Fang Zimo a lesson?"

Lin Chen grinned, then motioned his brothers to get close before telling them his plan. Once he finished speaking, the others looked at him in awe and surprise.

"Good plan isn"t it?" asked Lin Chen, his eyes shining as he looked at them with his tail held high.

"It is," said Lin Jing after a short pause. "You are surprisingly good at this, Chen. No one will say that this is your first time doing this."

An awkward silence issued in the room

Lin Chen "...." what should I do? I feel awfully guilty?

Lin Chen: let"s teach a lesson to Fang Zimo! One power stone equals one slap! Who"s with me! Send Your power stones to let me know!
