Mrs. An quickly rushed into the inner room and saw Gu Tiezhu, who had been beaten black and blue. His eyes were bruised, his face swollen, and his mouth was bleeding.
Upon seeing Gu Tiezhu like this, Mrs. An cried out in pain and distress.
"Oh my, my Tiezhu, my son, how did you end up like this? Who did this to you? Tell me, and I'll get justice for you!" The more Mrs. An spoke, the angrier she got. Her precious son was beaten half to death, and it truly infuriated her.
Mrs. An's chest was heaving, making it clear how upset she was at the moment.
Gu Tiezhu owed someone silver and was beaten because he couldn't pay it back. How could he dare tell his mother the truth?
He just held his mother's hand and kept saying his leg hurt.
"Mother, my leg... my leg, please take a look, it hurts so much." Gu Tiezhu had woken up with an excruciating pain in his legs, which was worse than when he was being beaten.
