Chapter 561: Chapter 561 A Dilemma of Choice Chapter 561: Chapter 561 A Dilemma of Choice Zhong Niangyao’s words nearly caused both Zhong Mingyu and Li Yiqiu to lose control of their inner excitent. They didn’t doubt Zhong Niangyao’s words in the slightest, because such matters couldn’t be faked.
Ever since their younger son was born, he had spent most of his ti in the hospital. Even at ho, they had to have a family doctor reside with them at all tis.
What they were most worried about was their son not being able to grow up and dying prematurely.
But now, Zhong Niangyao was saying there was a dicine that could save their son. How could they not be excited?
Li Yiqiu struggled to contain her inner excitent and looked at Zhong Niangyao, speaking up, “Nianyao, what will it take for you to give us the dicine?”
She wasn’t a fool and naturally didn’t think Zhong Niangyao would be so kind-hearted, especially since she had just ntioned Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong, which clearly had crossed Zhong Niangyao’s bottom line. Yet now, Zhong Niangyao was willing to kindly help her younger son. It was an impossibility.
Zhong Niangyao was no such kind-hearted Holy Mother.
Beside her, Zhong Mingyu was getting anxious, “Nianyao, no matter what, that’s your cousin. You are blood-related family. If you really have a way, you can’t just stand by and watch him die!”
“Blood-related?”
Hearing such words made Zhong Niangyao laugh coldly, “Zhong ngxuan always uses this excuse when she wants to seek benefits for herself. I’m quite tired of hearing it, Second Uncle, do you have any other excuses?”
Instantly, Zhong Mingyu’s face turned shades of green and white, and he felt rendered speechless.
Zhong Niangyao turned her head to Li Yiqiu and smiled, “One cannot be greedy in life, between your daughter and son, you can only choose one. I can let Zhong ngxuan off this ti, sparing her from prison. But that dicine I ntioned just now will no longer be possible for you.”
“Conversely, if you want the dicine, you must completely give up on Zhong ngxuan. Also—”
At this point, Zhong Niangyao’s face suddenly blood with a brilliant smile, “You must go to the detention center yourself and tell Zhong ngxuan that as parents, you’ve completely abandoned her.”
After finishing, Zhong Niangyao’s gaze swept between Zhong Mingyu and Li Yiqiu, “Life cannot be too perfect; you cannot have your cake and eat it too. Now you’re faced with two paths, your daughter’s future, or your son’s future?”
“Oh, there’s one more thing to tell you.”
As if suddenly rembering sothing, Zhong Niangyao slapped her own head and then said, “Actually, there’s another thing I almost forgot to tell you.”
“Although your young cousin’s body is weak, he does not have the look of an early death. On the contrary, he will surely live to his natural Life Span. He will surely be frail and unable to live like a normal person, but one thing is for sure: it won’t affect his Life Span.”
So, between your son and daughter, how will you choose?
Zhong Niangyao looked at Zhong Mingyu and Li Yiqiu with a smile that was not quite a smile, silently waiting for their response.
If it had been before, she certainly wouldn’t have been able to cure their cousin’s ailnt. But now, she could.
However, this was a tribulation he was supposed to endure, so she didn’t plan on intervening. Unfortunately, Li Yiqiu had already stepped over her bottom line.
As such, she wasn’t going to make it easy for Li Yiqiu.
Li Yiqiu wanted Zhong ngxuan, didn’t she? Well, let her choose carefully whether it’s her soon-to-be imprisoned daughter or her chronically ill son that’s more important.
Zhong Niangyao’s words imdiately put Li Yiqiu in a dilemma because no matter whether she chose the son or daughter, she wouldn’t be happy.
Hesitating, she couldn’t help but turn her gaze to Zhong Mingyu, as if she wanted him to make this decision.
At this mont, Zhong Niangyao spoke up again, “Li Yiqiu, I am asking you to make a choice. Only the choice you make counts! I don’t recognize the choice made by your second uncle!”
That complacent deanor of hers really was especially infuriating.
Li Yiqiu’s face showed pain as she looked towards Zhong Niangyao, “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? You just want to tornt , to make make this choice, right?”
On one hand, her daughter; on the other, her son. No matter the choice, she wouldn’t co out of it well. Choosing one ant she had given up the other.
Zhong Niangyao was deliberately seeking revenge on her for having brought up Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong and for infuriating her.
Otherwise, why hadn’t Zhong Niangyao brought this matter up before? Why did she suddenly have a dicine that could treat her younger son?
“That’s right, I’m doing it on purpose.”
Zhong Niangyao tilted her head and smiled candidly, “I just want to see what your reaction would be when faced with such a difficult choice.”
Although Li Yiqiu knew the future of both her son and daughter was in Zhong Niangyao’s hands, she could not hide her resentnt, “Zhong Niangyao, you’re truly vicious.”
“Vicious?”
As if hearing a joke, Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help laughing out loud before speaking up, “Zhong ngxuan burst into my dressing room with a Dagger on the day of my engagent party and tried to attack ; isn’t that vicious?”
“Now you’re here trying to morally kidnap , asking to let off soone who wanted to kill ; isn’t that vicious? And the most important point—”
As she spoke, she abruptly stopped and then her gaze fell on Li Yiqiu, “You even tried to drag grandparents into this; isn’t that vicious?”
At this, Li Yiqiu imdiately felt guilty, “I was just talking, I never really intended to bother dad and mom with this.”
At that mont, she truly regretted everything.
If she had known that ntioning Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong would provoke such a reaction from Zhong Niangyao, she would never have dared to bring those two elders up.
“It doesn’t matter to what you think,” Zhong Niangyao said coldly, “But you stepped over my bottom line, so I can’t let you off easily.”
At this point, she even urged directly, “Hurry up and make a choice! I don’t have so much ti to waste here with you.”
“If you’re too reluctant to make a choice, I’ll assu you’ve given up on both sides.”
“Choose the son,” Zhong Mingyu gritted his teeth and spoke up, “Just say it already!”
