ed actions might bring a burden to others.She stopped mid-sentence, swallowing. "Just say thank you is enough. I'm tired and need a rest for a while. Mr. Zhong, goodbye. No need to see me off.""Thank...The doctor looked at them helplessly, “You thank me for not being useless. I just do my job for money. You should really thank them.”
Saying that, he raised his eyes and glanced at Feng Mu and Meng Lan with his eyes.
Xiaonan's body trembled violently. He lowered his head, a flicker of guilt flashing in his eyes.
In order to hide her emotions, she didn't even dare to look up at them.
And Ahui knelt silently beside him, tugging at the corner of his clothes with her hand, and she too was at a loss.
Seeing them like this, the doctor was also infuriated and warned in a low voice, “I warn you, the little girl’s condition is very serious. I heard that you have been raising her at home all this time, you are truly the most foolish parents I've ever seen! If you don't see a regular doctor, then all that awaits her is death!”
"No...don't!"
Ahui was frightened. She turned around and kowtowed to Menglan, begging for mercy. "Please, please help me save my daughter. I'll tell you everything that happened."
"You..."
Xiaonan's face changed drastically upon hearing her confess everything, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"You still want to hide it until when This is a human life, ah! Even if we don't say anything, wouldn't the police investigate" Ah Hui roared angrily at him.
Xiaonan's lips were tightly pressed together, and he rarely retorted.
But Ahui felt increasingly distraught as she spoke, shouting out, "I can't take it anymore! I don't want to live this life of hiding any longer. I don't want my daughter to have to suffer like this either."
"You..."
Xiao Nan was so angry that she stood up, her finger pointing at Ah Hui trembling.
Just when he was still unwilling to admit it, Menglan stepped forward and spoke in a low voice, "You can choose not to admit it, but I already have the evidence in my hands."
Saying that, she took out a voice recorder from her pocket and clicked the play button.
Soon, the recording pen played back their conversation from earlier, every word crystal clear, enough to nail Xiaonan's crimes!
"It's over, everything is over." Xiaonan's face was filled with despair, she collapsed onto the ground and burst into tears.
His meticulously crafted abacus, now appears to be a complete loss!
It's all over!
Ahui knelt on the ground, reaching out to pull Menglan's trouser legs, pleading humbly, "Miss Meng, we were wrong. I accept any punishment, even if it means spending my entire life in prison without regret. But please... save my daughter."
Looking at her face of despair, Menglan finally couldn't bear it any longer.
As a mother herself, she understood Ahui's difficulties the best.
Thinking of this, Menglan subconsciously softened her voice and patiently persuaded, "Don't worry, no matter what, I will help you keep the child. Look, I have already brought the doctor here. I will take responsibility to the end."
"However, the premise is that you must tell the truth to the police and withhold nothing."
"Good," A Hui nodded vigorously.
And on the other side, Xiaonan's emotions gradually eased. He pondered for a moment before carefully asking again, "Are you sure Will you take good care of the children"
After she finished speaking, Meng Lan took a step forward and stood before him. She spoke slowly and deliberately, explaining one word at a time:
You should never have made money this way from the start. Even if your family is poor, it shouldn't be an excuse for you to commit crimes. Your daughter needs medical expenses; you could have sought help online through fundraising campaigns!
After speaking, Xiaonan tightly pursed her thin lips, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes.
At that time, the woman's sudden illness was so unexpected that it didn't give him any time to react. He was desperate and had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
If he had known it would turn out like this, he would have never taken this path.
"You now have only one way to atone for your sins: surrender." Menglan emphasized her words, "If you are willing to turn yourself in and confess who the real mastermind behind this is, I will speak kindly to the police and lessen your sentence."
After listening, Xiaonan's fingers clenched her hair tightly and let out a hysterical growl.
"No, this wouldn't be up to me to decide. The big guy said if I confess his words, he'll kill my entire family."
"What are you afraid of" Feng Mu stepped forward, his tone laced with authority. "In a society governed by law, no one would dare to touch you. Even if there were, you needn't panic. No one dares to move anyone under my nose."
"Feng Mu Are you Feng Mu!" Xiao Nan's face showed surprise.
He was struck speechless, his face ashen. It took him a long time to recover.
My goodness.
What on earth did he offend!
Thinking of this, Xiaonan hurriedly climbed to Feng Mu's face, grasped his trouser legs tightly with both hands, and humbly begged, "I beg you, let go of my wife and children, I will confess everything!"
Seeing Xiaonan like this, Feng Mu's thin lips pressed tightly together, deeply knowing that his threats and inducements had reached their goal.
He met Dream Orchid's gaze and saw a glimmer of admiration in her eyes.
Realizing this, Feng Mu's heart felt a little more comforted.
He didn't need Menglan to be grateful to him, as long as he could help her a little and lessen her worries.
……
After Xiaonan confessed everything, Xiaoxiao started handling the admission procedures, accompanied by Ahui.
The police then arrived at the scene and took Xiao Nan away.
To get firsthand information, Menglan and Fengmu followed suit and arrived at the police station together.
Sitting in the waiting area, a police officer brought them each a glass of water. “Please wait for a moment,” he said, “We also need to understand the situation properly, so it will take some time before you can see Xiao Nan.”
"Thank you," Menglan said softly.
The police left soon.
Only she and Feng Mu were left in the waiting room, the atmosphere strangely awkward.
Finally, Feng Mu spoke up to ease the awkwardness, "Are you hungry"
Meng Lan's expression was startled. She hadn't thought about it before, but now that it was mentioned, her stomach was indeed a little hungry.
In such a remote wilderness, with the ground covered in swampy mud and no proper roads, it was difficult even to walk, let alone find anything to eat.
"I'm fine, not hungry."
As soon as Menglan uttered these words, a rumbling sound echoed from her stomach.
"..."
At this moment, Menglan wished she could find a crack in the ground to hide in!
Ugh, this is so embarrassing. I was just saying how full I was and now my stomach is doing this What's going on becoming increasingly unable to understand the adult world.And Feng Mu was also astonished. He never expected that one day, he would have the opportunity to sit at the same table with his wife and ch...
