Chapter 532 - 532 533 Marry None but Her (9)_1
?Chapter 532: Chapter 533: Marry None but Her (9)_1 Chapter 532: Chapter 533: Marry None but Her (9)_1 Liang Zhoutian’s words were like a landmine exploding in his head, practically stinging him into a momentary stupor.
The phrase “kidnapping an innocent girl” kept fluttering in his ears, akin to countless bees buzzing and taunting around him.
How could his father know about this? Was it Jing Haohao who told him?
No, that’s impossible…
Before Liang Chen could figure out what was happening, Liang Zhoutian, standing behind his desk, pointed at him with grinding teeth and bellowed furiously, “Liang Chen, I have underestimated you. You dared to lay your hands on an innocent girl, and now you even want to marry her. Have you no shame? Today, if I don’t teach you a good lesson, you won’t learn your place!”
With that, Liang Zhoutian picked up the disciplinary whip he’d kept in his study since Liang Chen was a child, stalked over menacingly like a rampaging demon, and without any hesitation, swung it hard onto Liang Chen’s back.
The summer clothes were thin, and the whip lashed on his back with his father’s full strength, triggering a piercing pain that spread throughout his body instantly.
Liang Chen grunted, then clenched his teeth, not showing any reaction on his face.
Liang Zhoutian had always advocated strict discipline and law-abiding behavior to his children. Unexpectedly, his own son had committed such an unpardonable crime. Filled with rage, he raised his hand again, lashing out at Liang Chen’s back another two times. Liang Chen’s pristine white shirt was immediately stained with bright red.
Liang Yuan, standing aside, extended his hand in an attempt to intervene.
“Stand aside, let me properly discipline this wretched son!” Liang Zhoutian roared angrily, frightening Liang Yuan into stepping back. Liang Zhoutian harshly lashed at Liang Chen’s back again and demanded, “Do you realize your mistake?”
Liang Chen stood staunchly in place, his hands clenched into fists. He endured the pain silently, showing no sign of repentance.
Seeing that even after such a severe punishment, Liang Chen showed no signs of remorse, Liang Zhoutian was so enraged that he was panting heavily. Holding the whip and looking at the blood on Chen’s back, his resolve wavered. He pretended to summon all his strength and continued questioning, “I’m asking you, do you realize your mistake?”
“I’m not wrong!” Liang Chen pronounced each word clearly, “I want to marry her, and she wants to marry me. Where have I gone wrong? Don’t think I’m oblivious. I know you had my elder brother investigate her secretly. I’ve given you too much credit, thinking that you don’t care about social class. I thought you’d accept whoever I liked… but you say one thing and do another behind my back!”
Upon hearing this, Liang Zhoutian was fuming with rage. All his hesitation to punish Liang Chen evaporated in an instant. He lashed the whip on Chen’s back mercilessly and bellowed furiously, “You insolent brat, what did you say? Say it again!”
“I said, I’m not wrong. You don’t have to pretend to be so righteous. I know you care about social class. You look down on Haohao because of her humble background, and you’re using this as an excuse to justify your actions.”
