"Brother, luckily, you brought her here in time. Wan Xiaosu and the baby are safe and sound."
"I didn't expect Madam Bai to bribe someone from the Qin family to kill Wan Xiaosu."
Qin Fu had really underestimated Madam Bai. He had no idea why she would do something so drastic to her biological daughter.
Song Lianming also felt that Wan Xiaosu's situation seemed a little tragic. "Brother, do you think a mother who wants to kill her daughter even exists?"
"No…" Qin Fu's eyes turned cold as if he had just realized something.
When Wan Xiaosu woke up again, she smelled disinfectant. She covered her mouth and could not help but cough.
Qin Fu walked in when he heard her coughing.
He looked at her gloomily, but his gaze was probing. He sized her up from top to bottom. "Wan Xiaosu, do you like to court death that much?"
Court death?
These two words confused Wan Xiaosu. "Young Master Qin, what do you mean by that?"
"What do I mean? You eat whatever people give you. You don't even know who they are. Are you not afraid to die?" Qin Fu's magnetic voice sounded a little dangerous.
Wan Xiaosu couldn't help but frown. She remembered that in the dark room yesterday, a person called Mrs. Landis had given her food.
At that time, she was starving and had not second-guessed the food.
She didn't even get a good look at the woman who gave it to her.
"Wan Xiaosu, don't trust anyone in the Qin family, aside from me. Just don't trust anyone else!" Qin Fu gently pinched Wan Xiaosu's chin.
No matter how hard she struggled, it was useless. He pinched her so hard that it hurt. "Trust you? Young Master Qin, how can I trust you? You made me undergo an abortion. Aren't you the one who hurt me?"
"Don't be ungrateful!" Qin Fu's fingers tightened.
Wan Xiaosu was in so much pain that she narrowed her eyes and frowned. It was probably because she was still injured.
A light pinch was enough to make her feel weak.
It hurt…
"Did I say something wrong? If you hadn't locked me in the small dark room, perhaps I wouldn't have experienced this." Wan Xiaosu was in so much pain that tears were streaming down her face, but she did not intend to beg for mercy.
Qin Fu looked at her stubborn face and felt a wave of frustration. "Wan Xiaosu!"
"Young Master Qin! If you want to punish me, please punish me. Please don't act like you're saving me, okay?" He was looking at her with such pity. It felt like charity.
Qin Fu didn't want to meet her stubborn gaze anymore. He shook off her chin and turned around. "Consider what I said!"
He locked the door on his way out.
Wan Xiaosu brought her knees to her chest. She felt mistreated.
She hugged her knees tightly.
Song Lianming, who was outside the ward, saw his good friend get humiliated. He couldn't help but laugh. "Brother, don't tell me you've really fallen for a little girl!"
"No, I haven't." Qin Fu firmly denied it.
However, in Song Lianming's eyes, it was clear as day. " If you don't like her, why did you let her keep the child?"
"That's Grandma's wish. I don't want children. Since she's already pregnant, we'll just keep it. It's probably easier this way." Qin Fu's words were simple and clear. He just wanted to keep the child.
His grandmother wanted that child, so he did not have it aborted.
Qin Fu did not reappear over the next few days. It was Song Lianming who spoke with Wan Xiaosu. She always looked depressed.
She leaned against the window and looked outside. She looked like a prisoner or like a bird with a broken wing.
Her injuries were almost healed.
There was a scar on her forehead. When he saw the scar, Song Lianming felt a little remorseful. "You don't look bad. It's just a pity that there's a scar."
She looked at the scar in the mirror.
Wan Xiaosu touched it with her fingertips. She remembered how Madam Bai had thrown a thermos at her.
Despair filled her.
"No one cares. If there's a scar, let it be!" Wan Xiaosu was about to be discharged from the hospital, and she did not have many things. The person who came to pick her up was called Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng was Qin Fu's assistant.
As soon as she arrived at the Qin residence, she stopped in her tracks and was a little hesitant.
Mu Cheng saw her expression and thought that she was excited. He was unable to put it into words. "Young madam, the hospital must have bored you to tears. When you get home, you'll feel better."
Feel better?
These two words were so ironic.
Wan Xiaosu did not respond. Instead, she stepped inside the residence.
When they reached the living room...
Clang!
A vase smashed into pieces in front of her. It almost hit Wan Xiaosu.
Mu Cheng broke out in cold sweat.
Zhao Min laughed coldly. "You actually dared to come back! Wan Xiaosu, everything that happened to our family is your fault. Why don't you just die!"
"I've been in the hospital; I don't know what you're talking about." Besides, what could she have done to the Qin family?
She didn't even have the right to speak up. She just wanted to leave this place.
However, she knew that wasn't an option at the moment. Qin Fu could easily find her.
Zhao Min's eyes were as vicious as a snake's as she stared at Wan Xiaosu. "Isn't it your fault? Yaya has to marry a playboy, and our accounts are frozen. Did you not put Qin Fu up to it?"
Marriage?
Frozen accounts?
Wan Xiaosu did not know what she was talking about. She did not understand what Zhao Min was saying.
Seeing that Wan Xiaosu stayed silent, Zhao Min went up to her and pulled her closer.
She pulled so hard that Wan Xiaosu's clothes almost tore.
Mu Cheng hurriedly stopped her. "Young mistress, that's not what happened. Let go of her!"
"Let her go? Assistant Mu, I think this vixen has bewitched you. No wonder! Women from the countryside are all vixens! Shameless b*stard!" Zhao Min spat on Wan Xiaosu's face.
Wan Xiaosu did not resist and just let Zhao Min grab her.
The Bai family owed the Qin family, so no matter how the Qin family treated her, there was no need to resist.
After atoning for her sins, she would be free…
"What are you doing?" Qin Fu walked in. He had guessed that something might happen, but he didn't expect this.
Zhao Min pushed Wan Xiaosu to the ground. "Qin Fu, we are all members of the Qin Family. You and Yaya grew up together. You can't side with this vixen no matter what she says to you. Even if you freeze my assets, I won't compromise."
Qin Fu helped Wan Xiaosu up, but she did not appreciate it. She pushed him away lightly.
She deliberately kept her distance.
Wan Xiaosu's actions made Qin Fu's heart stir. 'Wan Xiaosu...'
"If Wan Xiaosu is alright with it, I can cancel the marriage. I'll even unfreeze your bank accounts. If Wan Xiaosu is not, then I'll do as I see fit. That's how it should be."
