Chapter 130: Plot Progress 85
Huo Yu didn’t want to waste words with Jiang Li: “Come back to the Capital City with me. The operating room is already prepared.”
Jiang Li shook her head with a pale facial expression, her eye sockets red: “I don’t want to… Brother Huo Yu, I don’t want to lose my eyes. I beg you.”
Huo Yu looked at her deeply, then suddenly curled his lips into a smile: “There’s another method. Help me steal the Jiang Family’s confidential information documents, then use your sister’s cornea instead.”
He hadn’t forgotten how that bold girl blocked him, tore up that donation document right in front of him—it wasn’t just tearing a contract; she was slapping his face, provoking him.
And anyone who dared provoke him like that was either someone above him or someone he sent into a coffin.
Hearing this, Jiang Li looked at Huo Yu in disbelief: “Use my sister’s?”
Huo Yu sneered mockingly: “Yes, use her to replace you, Little Li. That way you can keep your eyes, and I can achieve my goal of acquiring the Jiang Family. Plus, you can get revenge, resolving the grudge in your heart. Your family has been so bad to you—they should have gone to hell long ago. Little Li, only I truly care for you.”
Thinking of Jiang Ning, Jiang Li subconsciously refused: “No!”
She absolutely wouldn’t harm Jiang Ning. How could she harm the little sun who protected her.
Huo Yu’s smile faded: “Then you’ll have to come with me. This is what you owe Chu Chu.”
He grabbed her wrist and shoved her into the car.
Fear surged in Jiang Li’s heart. She struggled desperately, tears streaming down her face: “No, I don’t want to. I don’t owe her anything. Why? Why do I have to be bullied?”
“Heh, you think hiding back at the Jiang Family will keep you safe? Your family, and that annoying sister of yours—I won’t let any of them go. I’ve raised you for eight years, and now I just want you to cure my Chu Chu. You’re this unwilling? I’d raise a dog that’s more obedient than you, Jiang Li.”
Tears rolled down Jiang Li’s face, her voice choked: “I’ll pay back all the money. I haven’t spent a single cent of the money you gave me. I’ve even saved some more—I’ll give it all to you. Please let me go.”
Huo Yu sneered coldly: “Repay my kindness of raising you with a pair of corneas and a kidney, and I’ll ensure you’re safe for the rest of your life. You should thank the heavens.”
“Let go of her!” An angry female voice roared from not far away.
Before Huo Yu could react, he was shoved hard, and Jiang Li was pulled behind the woman.
Jiang Li was dazed for a moment, then turned to see Madam Jiang tightly gripping her hand, shielding her behind.
Madam Jiang was so furious she had no reason left: “Who are you? Where are you taking my daughter!”
Huo Yu’s facial expression darkened. First it was Jiang Ning, now Madam Jiang was ruining his plans again.
He looked at Madam Jiang with vicious eyes: “Hand her over to me.”
Madam Jiang could naturally tell the man before her had a noble bearing, possibly on the same level as their Jiang Family, or even higher.
She gritted her teeth tightly, her whole body trembling, gripping Jiang Li very tightly: “She’s my daughter. Without my permission, she can’t go anywhere. Sir, please show some respect. My daughter is clearly full of refusal. No matter what grudge is between you, you can’t force her.”
She saw Jiang Li’s fear.
She saw her helplessness and struggle.
In this moment, she didn’t know why she burst out with indescribable courage. She felt that if Jiang Li was taken away, she would never see this daughter again for the rest of her life.
From the time she was pregnant with Jiang Li, she looked forward every day to meeting this little life, even imagining that after Jiang Li was born, she would raise her into a little princess envied by all—but in the end, things didn’t go as planned.
Under the dual torment of body and spirit.
She began to hate herself, hate Jiang Li. She was like a shackle around her neck, as if only by abandoning her could she forget that painful memory.
So she selectively ignored her. As long as she didn’t look at her, those bad past events would disappear.
Huo Yu’s expression was cold, but Madam Jiang didn’t back down: “If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police.”
He gave the stunned Jiang Li a meaningful glance, then opened the car door and drove away.
After Huo Yu left, Madam Jiang staggered back a step.
Jiang Li quickly supported her, calling softly: “Mom.”
Madam Jiang pursed her lips, shook off her hand, her expression serious: “Is it that man? You’re his mistress, destroying someone else’s marriage, and now he’s come to find you.”
She didn’t want others to harm Jiang Li, but she also couldn’t tolerate her own daughter having such vile character.
Jiang Li was stunned, then shook her head: “No… I’m not a mistress, and I haven’t interfered in anyone else’s marriage. I haven’t done anything like that. The reports online are all public opinion—they’re all cursing me, and I have no way to explain.”
Hearing that Jiang Li hadn’t interfered in someone else’s marriage, Madam Jiang’s suspended heart finally settled completely.
Jiang Li suddenly hugged Madam Jiang. Just like she imagined, mother’s embrace was very warm, smelling like sunshine.
Her voice choked: “Thank you, thank you.”
Madam Jiang’s body stiffened, but she finally reached out and lightly patted Jiang Li’s back: “Alright, don’t be afraid. Even if something happens, your dad and I will stand in front. Just stay safely at home.”
Jiang Li’s voice was slightly hoarse: “Mm.”
But more than that, she was happy.
She seemed to no longer need to envy others, because she could go home too.
Jiang Ning stood behind the hospital gate.
Seeing this scene, she lightly breathed a sigh of relief.
Earlier in the hospital room, she noticed Jiang Li’s state suddenly become wrong, so after Jiang Li left, she quietly followed and sure enough saw that scumbag Huo Yu.
Eavesdropping on their conversation almost made Jiang Ning vomit.
What kind of brain logic is this.
So Jiang Li just deserved to dedicate everything? It was true that Huo Yu had saved Jiang Li—they didn’t deny that.
But she’d never heard of repaying a life-saving kindness by taking someone’s corneas or kidney.
In the end, after Jiang Li died of illness, he remembered her good qualities, then started abusing his childhood sweetheart.
What else could this be but purebred idiocy?
Jiang Ning had already planned that if the situation turned bad, she’d rush out and bring Jiang Li back. But before she could act, Madam Jiang appeared first and protected Jiang Li.
Jiang Ning quietly watched this scene.
She sighed inwardly: This was the normal way to open the plot.
Those dark crazy ones should get lost far away and not disturb normal people’s happiness.
[Ding, plot point +5, progress 85%.]
The long-absent mechanical sound rang out, and this sudden rise in progress stunned even Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning: 『Little Honey, why did the plot progress increase?』
Little Honey quickly appeared: [Perhaps because of Jiang Yan’s plot—even though you, host, changed the ending, he did go through this event.]
Little Honey couldn’t help sighing, kindly reminding: [Host, actually whether you can be annihilated isn’t up to me. I usually just scare you—I don’t have the authority. But with the plots you’ve altered, your situation is very dangerous. You might lose your life at any time…]
Progress is almost full at 100~
