137: Too late for regrets!_7

Loo Yiyi slightly furrowed her brows and repeated her earlier words, then continued with a hint of bitterness, "I haven't done anything wrong. The Shen Family is already in such a state; if we don't sever ties with them, are we expected to provide aid like a poverty relief effort?"

People always aim for higher places, just as water flows downhill.

Zhou Yuanman trembled with rage upon hearing her words and, in a fit of anger, slapped Loo Yiyi across the face. "You good-for-nothing wretch, I'll kill you!"

Loo Yiyi was stunned by the slap, her left cheek numb and in searing pain, her ears ringing.

It took her a while to recover, and then cradling her face, she cried out, "What did I do wrong? Zhou Yuanman, what right do you have to hit me?"

In their more than ten years of marriage, her husband had never laid a hand on her.

But this time, he had struck her because of the Shen Family.
