Chapter 182 Agree to Help

As soon as Li Mingzhu walked into the room, she rushed towards her son Ji Wuchen like a gust of wind.

Her eyes were wide open, burning with anger, as if they were going to burn everything in front of her to ashes.

She raised her hand, pointed her finger at Li Ruochu, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Long Yihuan, do you still want to harm my son? You Long family are going too far!"

The sound was so sharp and piercing that it seemed to penetrate Li Ruchu's eardrums, causing the entire room to tremble slightly.

"Auntie, you've got the wrong person!" Li Ruochu was frightened by the sudden roar and turned pale. He instinctively took a big step back, his eyes full of fear.

She stared at Li Mingzhu's angry eyes, fearing that this emotionally out-of-control woman would attack her out of anger.

She really didn't understand how domineering Long Yihuan was that would cause Li Mingzhu to have such a strong reaction to this face that looked so similar to her.

"What do you mean!" Li Mingzhu stared at Li Ruchu with her eyes fixed, as if she could see through her.

Looking at this face that looks exactly like Long Yihuan, how could she possibly believe that she had recognized the wrong person.

In her heart, Long Yihuan was the culprit who caused her son's legs to be crippled, and she had long hated this name.

"Mom, this woman might be the real Long Yihuan. The one from the Long family is probably a fake. But I'm still investigating this matter, so don't make it public for now!"

Ji Wuchen frowned slightly, leaned close to his mother's ear, lowered his voice, and spoke softly.

There was a hint of caution in his eyes, as if he was afraid that other people would hear the secret.

However, Li Mingzhu looked at Li Ruochu with vigilance, as if she was a wild beast that would pounce on her and hurt her at any time.

Then, she turned around again and responded to her son in a low but anxious voice: "Don't be fooled by this woman. The woman of the Long family is insidious and cunning. What if this is their plan?"

Li Mingzhu's eyes were full of worry. She was now filled with the desire to protect her son and did not want him to be hurt again.

In her opinion, this woman could not be kept at all costs. She was like a time bomb that could bring danger to her son at any time.

"Mom, she is giving me an injection. She said I can stand again!" Ji Wuchen looked at his mother with a hint of expectation and determination in his eyes.

He held his mother's arm tightly, as if trying to make his mother believe Li Ruchu's words in this way.

"You believe this woman's lies!" Li Mingzhu looked at her son in disbelief, her heart full of helplessness and anger.

She really didn't understand why her son was so obsessed with this matter.

In her eyes, this woman who looked similar to Long Yihuan was full of danger. She must not be allowed to get close to Ji Wuchen again, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Auntie, I think I need to explain something to you!" Li Ruochu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

Although he was still a little nervous, he mustered up the courage to stand there, looked at Li Mingzhu sincerely, and slowly began to tell her the purpose of his coming here.

Her voice was clear and firm, and every word seemed to carry an unquestionable power.

Of course, while telling the story, she did not forget to emphasize that there is still hope for her son Ji Wuchen's leg to recover.

She described in detail her knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and her judgment after seeing the condition of Ji Wuchen's legs, trying to convince Li Mingzhu that she was not talking nonsense.

Li Mingzhu stood there quietly, staring at Li Ruchu from beginning to end, her eyes full of scrutiny.

Her expression was serious and solemn, sometimes frowning slightly, and sometimes shaking her head gently.

Although she felt that what Li Ruchu said was a little unbelievable and like a fairy tale, this woman looked so much like Long Yihuan.

This made her wonder whether this woman was deliberately sent by the Long family or whether there was some ulterior motive.

Li Ruochu naturally understood that his face, which was extremely similar to Long Yihuan's, could easily be misunderstood.

But in this strange place, this face is somehow a good "pass".

Although it brought her a lot of trouble, it also provided her with some unexpected opportunities.

"Wu Chen, what are you thinking?" Li Mingzhu finally shifted her gaze away from Li Ruochu and looked at her son.

She bent down slightly, her eyes full of concern and worry, and then asked softly, wanting to know whether deep down he wanted to keep this suspicious woman.

"Mom, I've been in a wheelchair for five years," Ji Wuchen raised his head slightly, a trace of pain and helplessness flashed in his eyes, but was soon replaced by determination, "So, I want to give it a try!"

He gripped the armrests of the wheelchair tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force, as if he was expressing his determination to his mother and himself.

If there really is a glimmer of hope, even if it is only a one in ten thousand chance, he longs to be able to stand up again and escape the painful life of being trapped in a wheelchair for the past five years.

"It's too dangerous for the two of you to stay here. I'll leave a few people behind to protect you, just in case this woman really wants to hurt you..."

Li Mingzhu frowned, her eyes revealing deep worry. She was really worried about letting her son be alone with such a woman of questionable identity, and she always felt that an accident could happen at any time.

"Mom, if Li Ruochu really wanted to kill me, he would have stabbed me to death with a knife while treating me. Even if you asked someone to protect me, it would be useless!"

Ji Wuchen smiled bitterly and shook his head gently.

He knew in his heart that Li Ruchu would not harm him. After all, from her story, he could feel that she just wanted to find the man she liked, and there was no reason for her to attack him at this time.

Li Mingzhu looked at her son, her eyes full of heartache and helplessness.

She knew too well the pain her son had endured over the years. His disabled legs not only tortured his body, but also cast a thick shadow on his soul.

As a mother, she knew very well how tempting it was for him to be able to stand up.

In the end, she shook her head helplessly, knowing that she could not change her son's decision.

Finally, Li Mingzhu slowly came to Li Ruochu again. Her eyes became extremely cold, like ice in winter. She stared straight into Li Ruochu's eyes and said word by word: "I want to know what your ultimate goal is!"

The voice seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, with a chilling majesty.

"I want to find my husband!" Li Ruochu met Li Mingzhu's gaze without fear and answered firmly. She knew that she had to be honest at this moment in order to win a little trust.

"Okay, I can help you," Li Mingzhu narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, "but if anything happens to my son, I will make sure you die without a complete corpse!"

Her voice was low and powerful, like a devil's curse, echoing in the room.

She had always known how much pain her son had been living during this period, so she would never allow anyone to hurt him again.

If her son really had any problems because of this woman, she would make this woman live a life worse than death and pay a heavy price.
