Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

The woman glanced calmly at the barrage of comments and said, "Aren't you all curious about why he insists on a divorce? And how did he get all these injuries?"

She looked up at the camera and politely asked, "If the host doesn't mind, I'd like to borrow a few minutes of the live stream to explain the whole story to everyone."

Shen Jingshu shook her head slightly, leaned back in her chair, and calmly agreed to her request.

Seeing this, the woman calmly began to speak, slowly recounting the whole story, and her name was revealed.

The woman's name is Xiaoyi, and she is twenty-eight years old.

Three years ago, she and Xiaozhi met and fell in love through a matchmaker, and they got married in a hurry after only half a year.

Before marriage, Xiao Zhi was very accommodating to Xiao Yi, gentle and considerate, always going along with her. He was gentle and refined, never saying a harsh word, which made her feel very secure.

But no one expected that not long after their marriage, Xiao Zhi would completely reveal his true nature.

That night, Xiao Zhi went out drinking with his friends and didn't return home until late at night, completely drunk.

He kicked off his shoes as soon as he entered the room, scattering them all over the floor. Then he casually took off his clothes and threw them around everywhere, showing no sense of propriety.

Seeing this, Xiaoyi quickly stepped forward to support him as he staggered, silently tidying up his scattered shoes, socks, and clothes. She then carefully helped him to sit down on the sofa and thoughtfully brought him a glass of honey water, hoping to help him sober up and calm down.

She simply complained softly, "You're not a good drinker to begin with, so don't drink so much. Drinking too much is bad for your health and makes you feel unwell."

Just that one caring, soft murmur became the trigger for Xiao Zhi to vent his anger.

He abruptly stood up from the sofa, his eyes flashing with malice, and shoved Xiaoyi violently to the ground, cursing loudly, "You dare to grumble at me when I've had a few drinks? Who are you to tell me what to do?"

The sudden change in attitude and hostility completely terrified Xiao Yi, who had fallen to the ground.

She sat there on the ground, stunned and frightened, unable to believe that the man before her was her husband, who had always been so gentle with her. How could the man who used to speak softly to her and never dare to utter a harsh word to her have become such a different person after just a few drinks?

She explained, feeling wronged and flustered, "I didn't mean anything by it, I was just advising you to drink less alcohol, it's bad for your health..."

But the drunken and enraged Xiao Zhi wouldn't listen to a word of explanation. His face contorted with rage, he unbuckled his belt and began to beat and verbally abuse Xiao Yi on the ground, showing no mercy.

And just like that, Xiaoyi experienced her first instance of domestic violence for no reason whatsoever. All her previous gentle facade shattered completely at that moment, revealing her inner volatile and selfish true nature.

That night, Xiao Yi was too weak to stand up due to her injuries. Out of fear, she dared not go into the bedroom and could only curl up on the sofa in the living room to get through the night.

After the assault, Xiao Zhi acted as if nothing had happened, returning to his room and falling into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Xiao Zhi woke up from his drunken stupor, and Xiao Yi immediately packed her bags, determined to go back to her parents' home and insist on filing for divorce.

Seeing his wife's resolute attitude, Xiao Zhi immediately changed his demeanor, knelt down and begged, repeatedly swearing that it would never happen again.

Considering their recent marriage and recalling his past tenderness, Xiao Yi softened her heart and ultimately chose to forgive him.

But it was this soft heart that pushed her into an endless abyss. For the next year, she was shrouded in the shadow of domestic violence.

Later, Xiao Yi couldn't bear the torment and ran back to her parents' home. She had lost her father at a young age, and only her mother was left to depend on her.

The mother felt sorry for her daughter's injuries, but she was old-fashioned and thought that quarrels and fights between husband and wife were normal. She believed that quarrels in bed should be resolved before they are over and tried to dissuade her from getting a divorce.

Not long after, Xiao Zhi chased after his mother-in-law to her house, kneeling down and confessing his mistakes. He managed to win her sympathy with his clumsy performance and brought Xiao Yi home again.

What awaited Xiaoyi was never repentance, but rather increasingly brutal and savage beatings.

On one occasion, Xiao Yi was nearly seriously injured in a beating and, unable to bear it any longer, called the police. When the police arrived, they did not file a case due to the nature of the dispute as a marital conflict, but merely mediated the situation.

In front of the police, Xiao Zhi was respectful and repeatedly promised that he would restrain his temper and treat his wife well.

But no sooner had the police left than he dropped his pretense, dragged Xiaoyi into the room, and subjected her to an even more brutal beating.

After hearing Xiao Yi's story, the live stream was filled with comments of sympathy. When everyone looked at Xiao Zhi, who was covered in bruises, on camera, they were filled with contempt. No one felt any pity anymore and they all condemned him for deserving his punishment.

Many netizens eagerly asked, "Why didn't you just go through legal proceedings and file for divorce?"

A cold glint appeared in Xiao Yi's eyes as she helplessly explained the reason: "I don't dare to file a lawsuit at all. I've relied on my mother since I was a child, and that's become his weakness. Xiao Zhi has repeatedly threatened me with my mother's safety, forbidding me from even mentioning the word 'divorce'."

"I had resigned myself to my fate, thinking I would be trapped in this hellish marriage for the rest of my life. Until that day, I went out to buy groceries and stumbled upon a newly opened gym. The lady handing out flyers gave me one, and at that moment, I suddenly grasped a glimmer of light in my despair, and slowly began to plan everything in my mind."

Since then, Xiao Yi has continued to play the role of a docile and obedient wife, behaving herself in a quiet and obedient manner, deliberately keeping her distance from Xiao Zhi, and never taking the initiative to provoke him, in order to dispel his guard.

After Xiaozhi leaves for work each day, she finishes all the housework and then heads to the gym on time.

She used to love pretty dresses and exquisite high heels, and she took great care of her appearance. But later, she put away all her dresses and high heels, changed into comfortable sportswear and sneakers, and even ruthlessly cut off her long hair.

She changed her eating habits, consuming large amounts of carbohydrates and protein to gain weight and improve her physique, exercising consistently day after day. After six months, her body had been completely transformed.

After establishing a solid foundation, Xiaoyi specifically sought out a fitness coach to inquire about the most suitable self-defense and combat style, given the inherent differences in physical strength between men and women. The coach immediately recommended Muay Thai, known for its high lethality.

And so, she devoted herself to Muay Thai training for another six months, gritting her teeth to hone her fighting skills.

The change occurred three months ago. At that time, Xiao Zhi's company was doing poorly, and his boss was exploiting and scolding employees all day long. He had a lot of resentment that he had nowhere to vent.

After a company dinner, Xiao Zhi got drunk and returned home full of rage. As usual, he swore and tried to assault Xiao Yi as he always did.

But this time, things are completely different.

Xiao Yi stopped holding back and immediately stepped forward to fight back. With her physique honed over the years and her skillful Muay Thai moves, she quickly knocked the unsuspecting Xiao Zhi to the ground and completely subdued him.

This was the first time in the long history of domestic violence that Xiao Yi had completely gained the upper hand.
