Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

With everyone alert, Lina milked the attention.

Madame Yi sat down next to her and took her hand.

"Dear, I know it must have been traumatic but start with the basics. Was this person a man or woman?"

Lina looked at her concerned expression. She was disgusted. This woman only wanted to appear concerned to play the role of the all-powerful matriarch amongst these elites.

She didn't really care.

But Lina played along.

"It was...a woman. A very young woman, actually..."

The men in the room all sighed audibly. At least nobody would go pointing fingers at them. They would all still remain in Shen Moshi's good books.

They just couldn't make an enemy out of him.

But the panic hadn't subsided.

All the women under thirty began to look around nervously. Would they all be questioned?!

Would someone falsely accuse them to save their own skin?

Lina was disgusted at the pretentious young girls, spoiled and seated on their high horses.

They didn't know what valuing people meant, only valuing materials and power and position in society.

If it meant throwing someone else under the bus to save themselves, they'd lie till their noses were longer than anything Pinocchio ever had!

"How many girls hurt you?"

Shen's voice was hard and cold, as if he'd be serving up a death penalty tonight.

Sara was sweating quite visibly now.

She laughed nervously.

"It's a little hot in here, isn't it? Did the air conditioners stop working?"

The whole room was silent.

It was an important moment, and everyone had been focused on the revealing of the culprit. Where did this girl find the guts to make comments on the temperature?

"Sara seems nervous, doesn't she..."

The whispers began as Sara sunk deeper into her shell.

Madam Yi's eyes registered shock and then slowly signs of panic.

She stood up immediately.

"Let's put this aside for now, Madam Moshi needs to rest and her wounds need medical attention."

She was trying help Lina out of the room but Shen's hand immediately snapped up, stopping her from taking any further action.

"No. We will get to the bottom of this."

Turning to his wife, with gentle eyes, he continued to ask her.

"Angel, how many girls attacked you?"

This was the perfect moment for tears. Lina squeezed her eyes tightly shut, as if in pain, until glistening little drops collected at the sides of her eyes, threatening to spill.

"There were three..."

Every man's heart was moved. This girl evoked a sense of helplessness that was far from annoying, but rather, exciting. Her gentleness and her soft demeanour was that of an abandoned little princess who just needed to be held.

She was a different level of beautiful when she acted vulnerable.

Even Shen fists curled up in fury. He wanted to personally behead the stupid cows who dared to touch his pure little wife.

His eyes flashed in anger, as his gaze fell on this still sweaty and nervous Sara.

But he noticed something more interesting.

The two girls beside her looked truly terrified. Sara was able to control her emotions better, but her friends were hopeless.

Suddenly Madam Yi spoke up again.

"Shen, I know you are angry, but we can deal with this privately instead of making all the other guests uncomfortable. And, your wife needs a doctor right now."

Lina noticed Madam Yi was becoming increasingly jittery.

But Shen pounced on her before Lina had time to force her into a corner. He knew exactly why Madam Yi was having second thoughts about getting to the bottom of this matter.

Both husband and wife were playing the same game. And they had everyone quaking in their fancy boots.

"Madam Yi, don't you think we should prioritise finding the person who harmed my wife? We can bring a doctor in here to help her."

His voice became gentler as he spoke to Lina.

"You're okay with that right, angel?"

Her watery eyes were trusting as she nodded at him.

Suddenly someone began wailing.

Everyone's eyes turned to a girl wearing a tacky, extremely bejeweled yellow dress.

Lina recognised her as one of Sara's friends.

The flies were entering the trap.

Shen walked straight up to the crying girl and glared down at her. As she shrunk out of fear and guilt, Shen looked more and more like the truly terrifying figure he was.

Tall. Handome. Foreboding. Dangerous.

"Speak."

The girl was about to crack but Sara quickly interceded.

"Brother Shen, let the poor girl be! She is so scared because of how powerful you are."

As Sara spouted nonsense in a sickly sweet voice she only put on for Shen, she went up to him and clung to his arm like a benevolent little princess.

Lina's eyes grew dark. This girl was now getting really annoying.

It was time for her to step in.

"Actually...darling, this girl here in the blue gown clinging to your arm...she looks quite familiar."
