Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The mont the knife was pulled out, it fell onto the tiled floor, dripping with blood…
“Li Nanchen! You…”
Wu i put pressure on his arm, but blood still flowed out from between her fingers. She frowned and said, “Why did you…”
“I’ve said it before. No one can hurt you.” Li Nanchen’s brows knitted together as he endured the pain and took out the iodine and gauze from the dicine cabinet. He then casually bandaged his arm.
Wu i looked at him and recalled the mont when Mother Wu brandished the knife and closed in on her. Almost instinctively, Li Nanchen had stood in front of her to shield her, hugging her in his arms and taking the blow for her.
She gulped. “…Thank you.”
“Let go of !” The doctors and nurses kept Mother Wu under control and tied her hands and feet to the bed. She continued to struggle and scream.
“You can’t let the Wu Corporation go bankrupt! Give them money! Don’t you have a lot of money? Give it to them…”
Mother Wu’s hair was dishevelled and her pupils were dilated. In this state of extre agitation, she stared at Wu i and said, “Promise . Or else, I’ll kill myself! I won’t let you off even if I beco a ghost!”
“…” Wu i’s brows furrowed as an indescribable chill ran down her spine.
Her biological mother is threatening her with her own life to get her to help Wupang?
The culprit who destroyed her family and made her live in such a wretched place?
Sothing was amiss!
Wu i narrowed her eyes and quickly approached her. She realized that her mother’s condition was unstable and the relapse this ti was more severe than all the previous tis.
She scanned the surroundings and saw that there were no surveillance caras in the ward.?Could it be…?
“Wu Pang, you got soone to provoke and instigate my mother on purpose?!”
Her mother had always been ntally unsound. If there were professionals inciting her, it was very possible for her to do sothing extre.
Hearing Wu i’s words, Wu Pang felt uncomfortable for a mont but quickly concealed that.
“What nonsense are you spouting! I only told her what you’ve been doing recently. She was the one who disapproved and wanted to stop you!”
“You don’t even listen to your mother now? She asked you to give us money, or else she’ll kill herself! You heard it yourself! You saw it with your own eyes!”
The fat on Wu Pang’s body was shaking as he yelled in an ear-piercing voice while pointing at Mother Wu was in a daze.
“How dare you say that you are filial, and that you’re a great person! You must make a promise in front of her right now!” Wu Pang pressed her.
Seeing that Mother Wu was about to have another relapse again, Wu i had an idea in mind. She squatted by the bed and held Mother Wu’s hand as she spoke softly,*
“Mom, I promise you that I won’t let the Wu Family go bankrupt. Don’t worry.”
“…” With Wu i comforting her, Mother Wu gradually cald down.
However, Wu Pang felt ill at ease with the promise and narrowed his eyes. He had a nagging feeling that sothing was amiss.
This wretched lass agreed so easily?
“In that case, when are you going to transfer the money to ?” He opened his hands, revealing his true nature. “It’s best if you transfer the money now!”
Wu i patted Mother Wu lightly. Seeing that her eyes were closed and she was sleeping, Wu i got up and looked back at Wu Pang.
After personally witnessing this farce, Li Nanchen could not bear to make things difficult for Wu i. He was about to take out his checkbook and sign for the 50 million.
Wu Pang’s eyes were wide open as he watched Li Nanchen’s actions. He could practically feel himself salivating.
“Wait a minute, there’s no hurry.”
Wu i held Li Nanchen back and said to Wu Pang in an insinuative tone, “Next week. Just you wait. I’ll give you a surprise next week.”
Wu Pang’s heart was pounding. Pointing at the bed, he raised his voice and said, “Don’t play any tricks. Or else, I can’t guarantee that she’ll be saved the next ti she commits suicide!”
Is he threatening her?
Wu i sneered and turned to instruct the bodyguards, “Go and install 24-hour surveillance equipnt in this ward right now!”
“You! What right do you have to do this in a sanatorium…” Wu Pang imdiately felt uneasy and tried to stop the bodyguard.
However, before his fat hand could touch the bodyguard, Wu i grabbed his shoulder and threw him over her shoulder, causing him to fall hard onto the ground!
Wu Pang wailed in pain. Seeing this, Wu Yi did not dare to move forward. However, she stared at Li Nanchen rapaciously.
“Brother-in-law! Did you see that? Wu i is always so violent! She beat soone up!”
“She’s the daughter of a ntally unsound patient. Her blood and bones are all flowing with ntal illness… That’s why her personality has changed so drastically during this period of ti!”
“Hurry up and lock Wu i up in the sanatorium. She’s already ntally unsound!”
Wu Yi pointed at Wu i. Seeing Wu i shoot daggers at her, she withdrew her index finger in fear.
“I’m ntally unsound?”
Wu i glanced at Wu Yi derisively. Then, she rubbed her palms together and said, “Do you want to see what a real lunatic looks like?”
Wu Yi cowered behind Yang Shan in fear and only revealed her eyes as she shouted,
“This is a sanatorium. If you dare touch , a doctor will lock you up imdiately!”
Wu i tied up her curly hair and rolled up her sleeves. When she went past Li Nanchen, he suddenly held her wrist and shook his head.
“You…”
Wu i wanted to shake off his hand, but she stopped when she saw his bleeding wound.
Is he going to defend Wu Yi?
