However, the whip hadn't yet struck Tang Qingning when it suddenly snapped, rebounding onto Tang Qingrou's face, leaving a bloody mark on her heavily powdered face.
This only enraged the already irate Tang Qingrou further. She grabbed another whip from the side, aiming it heavily at Tang Qingning, but the whip broke again.
This time, the whip struck her other cheek.
Perfectly symmetrical.
Tang Qingrou, furious and on the verge of exploding, had already lost face in front of the Third Prince's household, and now, just as she had a chance to recover her dignity, she became a laughingstock once more for these lowly people.
She demanded of the soldiers, "Give me your whips!"
The soldiers handed a whip to Tang Qingrou, but this time was no different. Before she could strike anyone, it broke again, snapping against her forehead.
