Chapter 532 - Retribution! (2/2)
No, don’t pull my hair away.
Don’t show my face!
Li Ying could not stand it anymore and took a few steps forward, grabbing Nan Yao’s shoulder with one hand and used the other to sweep away the hair covering her face.
Although her face was red and swollen, Li Ying recognized Nan Yao at once.
Li Ying was terrified. She had not expected it would be Nan Yao who seduced her Xuan’er.
Ever since Nan Yao and Ding Shuman came to the Qiao family, both mother and daughter behaved in an arrogant way, always stuck-up and looking down on her Xuan’er.
Qiao Yanze was still doubtful who was playing such a game of chess, wanting to disgrace their Qiao family. When he saw that the woman was Nan Yao, he laughed meanly.
She would not even let off Pei Xuan, how hard up was she?
Ding Shuman saw that Qiao Yanze, instead of being angry, he laughed. She was perplexed.
Why was he laughing?
It shouldn’t be!
Seeing Nan Zhi, shouldn’t he be angry or feel that she was shameless?
“Ludicrous!”
Ding Shuman had not figured out what happened to Qiao Yanze when Madam Qiao’s angry cry sounded by her ear.
This was the first time that Ding Shuman had seen Madam Qiao getting angry after she had returned to the Qiao family.
Ding Shuman turned her head in doubt and looked at the woman by the bed quickly.
That pitiful looking person was clearly…
Ding Shuman’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Nan Yao.
No… How could it be her own daughter?
Where was Nan Zhi?
Ding Shuman’s expression changed. Nan Yao saw the anger shooting out of Ding Shuman’s eyes and she crawled to her side with her aching body. “Mom, save me…”
Ding Shuman resisted the impulse to kick Nan Yao away. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Madam Qiao, who had on a dark expression. “Mom, listen to me…”
Madam Qiao’s expression darkened and shook Ding Shuman’s hand away, then she strode towards the door.
Ding Shuman was too frightened and chased after her hurriedly.
Ding Shuman caught up with her mother at the stairway. She pulled at her in a panic. “Mom, you saw for yourself. Yaoyao was abused so badly by Pei Xuan, somebody must have set her up…”
Madam Qiao shoved Ding Shuman’s hand away. “Shuman, I finally figured out your plan. Do you know what I care about most? The reputation of our Qiao family and Pei Xuan is my brother’s only son. You shouldn’t have used him!”
“Mom, listen to meー”
Madam Qiao wanted to go down the stairs but Ding Shuman held on to her. While they were pus.h.i.+ng and pulling, Ding Shuman missed her footing and her body rolled down the stairs into a crumpled heap at the bottom.
When Madam Qiao saw this, her anger turned into worry and panic.
“Shuman!”
Hearing the commotion, Qiao Yanze rushed over.
He called the ambulance after he saw Ding Shuman rolling down the stairs and bleeding after knocking her head.
…
Outside the emergency treatment room.
Madam Qiao paced around with worry and Qiao Yanze hugged his mother. “Mom, you need to calm down.”
“Your sister’s life is in danger, how could I possibly calm down?!” It was supposed to be a happy occasion for the Qiao family tonight, but a series of accidents happened. She finally found her daughter after so many years. If anything happened to her, she would not have the will to stay alive.
Just then, the door to the emergency room opened. “Who is a family member of the patient? She is bleeding profusely and losing a lot of blood. Our blood bank is in urgent need of type O blood…”
