Chapter 356 - A Fish & A Shark (1/2)

Do you know what the best type of revenge is?

No?

Let us enlighten you on that... Or we should let Ru do that instead.

"Ahhh! Who threw the damn cold water?" A lout howler could be heard in the hospital ward as Jie frantically opened his eyes. Looking at Ru's grinning face, his hands clenched in fists. "You! What was that for?"

"You grew fond of ruining my sleep. So, I did the same to you. An act of perfect revenge for sleep-spoilers" answered a certain cheeky best friend. Before Jie could say anything else, he noticed other people in the room.

The room had six other people, one of those was tied up in a corner.

"What's going on?" He was immediately on alert mode and noticed that Xu Mey wasn't by his side anymore. "And where is my wife?"

"Relax! Your wife is safe and sound. She's sleeping peacefully in the room next door while you... I think I told you to keep an eye open at night." She paced up to the person who was tied up in a corner and said, "Wouldn't you like to meet our sharky?" Saying that Ru turned the face of the person.

Jie's eyes widened up as he gaped for a moment longer before voicing out in disbelief, "Xu Liqing?" He had expected to see anyone but her. "But how?"

Xu Liqing was constantly trying to free herself. She was growling like a hungry lion as her rage-filled eyes were trying to kill Jie with just a look.

Feeling something odd about Xu Liqing he asked, "What's going on with her?"

"Well... This little missy didn't have a mental breakdown at least not until a month ago." Jie gave her an inquiring look before Ru continued, "This little missy's mother has been on life-support for a month now and when doctors said that Fu Lan will never wake up, she went into shock. Because of that, she lost her child as well."

Ru was stating everything with ease and calmness but Jie wasn't calm at all. He had no idea that Fu Lan was on life-support now.

"You see, that was the mental breakdown she needed to forget all about the thing called rationality. And she did. Her way of coping with her grief was her anger that was directed towards your wife."

"I'll kill her! Xu Mey will have to die! I'll kill her with my own hands! Haha! I'll never let her rest in peace. She'll have to pay for everything that she did to me!" Xu Liqing's hysterical shouting made Ru scrunch up her face in annoyance.

"Someone just shut her damn trap!" At Ru's command, a person from the group of five moved and taped Xu Liqing's mouth.

"Was she the one behind the accident?" Jie asked with a solemn look on his face.

"Yes and no," came the answer.

"Give me only one answer," Jie demanded in a stern tone.

Ru rolled her eyes at him and waved her hand. The group of five moved and soon brought another tied figure inside. Kneeling before Jie's bed when Ru pulled off the black cloth from the face, Jie didn't even flinch as if it wasn't surprising anymore.

"What? Aren't you shocked? Surprised?" Ru questioned in a nosy manner.
