It took many moments for Long Jian to process what was happening. The shock hadn't worn off yet. Perhaps it wouldn't wear off for days to come, maybe even longer. The hits on his chest became more violent and the hysterical accusations much more vicious. He caught his mother's arms and shook her by force to make her stop.
"Mom, stop it! I said stop!!!"
Zhu Ning was too far gone in her hysterical fury to allow him to calm her down. She continued fighting against his hold and cursing at her own son. The ruckus alerted the housekeeper waiting for them to eat dinner downstairs.
