928 A Million Times for You 290 (2/2)
She then headed to the ward after handing out the instructions.
At this moment, the anesthetic in Lin Shishi's body was yet to wear off and she could only move the parts of her body above her neck.
”An Xiaoning, you'll die a horrible death!” she bellowed, glowering at An Xiaoning angrily.
She stepped forward and looked down at Lin Shishi, who was struggling continuously. ”I was just giving you a taste of your own medicine… so you're allowed to harm me righteously but I'm not allowed to pay you back in your coin? Shishi, you were such an innocent girl when you first entered the Autumn Palace. I was still your godsister then. I've never actually thought of really harming your family, but you people were the ones who laid a finger on me first, so don't blame me.”
”Quit pretending. You know yourself what you did to Gucheng!”
An Xiaoning smiled and said, ”Don't get too worked up, lest you bleed from your wound that has just been incised. You should at least spare a thought for your premature son, shouldn't you?”
Reminded of her son, Lin Shishi teared up uncontrollably and questioned, ”Are you thinking of killing my son, too?”
”No, the child is innocent, I won't harm him. However, his brain is damaged. I'll do my best to send him for treatment, but his lifespan will all depend on his fate.”
”What!?!”
Lin Shishi almost passed out due to the immense exasperation she felt, and she was in a state of despair after she broke down emotionally.
She burst into tears and bawled loudly to the point of losing her voice.
She was supposed to be at the peak of the world. Just what had happened?
An Xiaoning turned a blind eye to her behavior, for she would never show mercy to someone who tried to harm her.
Others would try and kill her if she did not act against them first. Since there'll always be a winner, why can't she be the one? Wasn't that how it goes?
She had never thought that she would ever be in such a predicament.
Things had actually come to this today.
She had never expected it, never ever…
She was merely trying to defend herself and turned out to be the winner of this battle.
”An Xiaoning, I'm going to kill you. I will kill you one day! I'll rip you to shreds and burn you into ashes!” Lin Shishi screeched.
”Too bad, you won't be getting the chance to. In a few days' time, your death will be announced and you'll be said to have died in labor.”
Lin Shishi's lips began quivering, and she could no longer make a single sound. Her breath quickened as she glared at An Xiaoning, seething with anger.
She had already lost an excessive amount of blood during her cesarean section, which made her frail and feeble. She now turned even paler.
”Could you let me see my child once?” said Lin Shishi, keeping her eyes fixed on the scenery outside the window.
”Sure,” An Xiaoning agreed.
She instructed her subordinates to carry the infant over from the incubation tank. It was still too early to tell whose features the infant's resembled, though it was obvious that he had a face shape like Lin Shishi's. The infant was currently sound asleep.
Lin Shishi could not yet move at the moment. However, she soon began to feel a sharp, unbearable pain in her wound when the effects of the anesthetic gradually began to fade.
”Let me be alone with my son for two minutes. I want to speak to him, even though he won't understand me at all. May I?”
Noticing that An Xiaoning did not answer, Lin Shishi looked at her and said, ”I'm begging you, just two minutes.”
An Xiaoning left with the nurse.
She only agreed to Lin Shishi's request because she was a mother herself.
However, An Xiaoning regretted her decision when she returned to the ward. To her astonishment, Lin Shishi was strangling the infant with all her might.
