Late is Not Late

Ji Wan thought Zhou Zechuan was a light in her life. She willingly hid her brilliance and entered into a secret marriage with him for two years, content to be his kept woman. However, she didn'...

Chapter 618 Distorted Face

Chapter 618 Distorted Face

She wanted Su Jiujiu to look in the mirror every day and see her ugly true face distorted by desire and jealousy.

"Okay." Chi Wenyan answered without any hesitation.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number. His voice was cold and without a trace of warmth: "Take Su Jiujiu to Dr. Li's clinic and restore her to her original appearance. Remember, I want her original face, not a single bit can be different."

After hanging up the phone, he held Ji Wan's hand again and said, "Soon, no one in this world will be able to use your face to do those disgusting things."

In a private clinic hidden in a corner of the city, Su Jiujiu was pinned down on the operating table by two black-clad bodyguards.

She struggled desperately, uttering incoherent screams: "You can't do this to me! Chi Wenyan! Ji Wan! You two bastards! You will get what you deserve!"

She cherished her face immensely; it was her last weapon, her capital for turning things around! She couldn't afford to lose it!

The doctor came over with an expressionless face, holding a tube of anesthetic in his hand.

"No! Don't!" Su Jiujiu's eyes were filled with fear. She watched the needle glowing coldly under the light, getting closer and closer to her.

As the cold liquid injected into her blood vessels, her struggles gradually became weaker and her curses became quieter. Finally, her eyelids closed heavily and she completely lost consciousness.

The surgeon picked up the scalpel, pointed it at the face that looked like Ji Wan, and prepared to start peeling off this false beauty.

Just then—

"Boom—"

The whole building shook violently!

The earth roared angrily, and violent tremors came from deep within the earth's core. The light tubes on the ceiling swayed wildly, making a "sizzling" sound of electricity, and then went out in an instant!

"Earthquake! It's an earthquake!"

There was chaos in the clinic, with nurses and doctors running around screaming.

No one cared about Su Jiujiu on the operating table anymore.

"Boom—Crack—"

A hideous crack appeared on the ceiling, and pieces of cement and dust fell down.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a teeth-grinding bang, a huge prefabricated panel fell off the ceiling with a tremendous force, and hit the operating table squarely!

"Bang!!!"

The dull sound of impact was drowned out by the roar of the building collapsing.

Blood and flesh spurted out from the cracks in the cement board, staining the sterile surgical sheet red.

The woman who was still screaming wildly a few minutes ago was crushed into an unrecognizable pool of flesh without even being able to utter a scream.

The Chi family's villa was impregnable and only felt a slight shaking.

Chi Wenyan immediately protected Ji Wan under his body until the shock subsided.

As soon as he stood up, his assistant called, and his voice was full of shock and fear that could not be concealed.

"Boss Chi, something happened..."

"Speak." Chi Wenyan's voice remained steady.

"There was an earthquake just now, and Dr. Li's clinic collapsed. Our staff are fine, but Su Jiujiu..." The assistant's voice was hoarse. "She was on the operating table when a huge rock fell from the ceiling and she died on the spot..."

He didn't have the heart to say the rest of the words because the scene was too bloody and terrifying.

Chi Wenyan hung up the phone and looked at Ji Wan.

Ji Wan listened to the entire process quietly, without a trace of surprise or fear on his face, and was so calm that it was a little scary.

She was silent for just a moment.

Then, she opened her red lips and uttered two words.

“Serves you right.”

Chi Wenyan stared at Ji Wan with his deep eyes. The cold determination on her face did not make him feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he felt a sense of peace that everything had settled.

He stretched out his long arms, holding her tightly in his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head, and said in a low and powerful voice: "Yes, you deserve it. From now on, no one will be able to tarnish your name."

Su Jiujiu's death was like a stone thrown into a lake, which caused a final ripple between them before it became completely silent.

However, this sudden natural disaster caused a huge wave in the entire city.

On the television news, the anchor reported the disaster with a solemn expression. Aerial footage showed the once bustling neighborhood in ruins, with broken walls and rubble everywhere. Rescuers rushed through the rubble, and the piercing sirens and cries of grief intertwined, tearing everyone's heart apart.

Countless families were displaced and shivered in makeshift shelters, their eyes empty and desperate.

Ji Wan leaned in Chi Wenyan's arms, watching the heart-wrenching scenes on the screen. The coldness in his eyes had long since faded, replaced by a heavy compassion.

Chi Wenyan felt the change in her mood, he let go of her, picked up his phone and called his assistant again.

This time, his voice was no longer bitingly cold, but carried an absolute majesty and decisiveness that brooked no room for questioning.

"Assistant, immediately establish a special emergency disaster relief fund in the name of the Chi Group, with an initial injection of 10 billion."

The assistant on the other end of the phone gasped, but before he could be shocked, Chi Wenyan's instructions came one after another.

"Mobilize all of the group's construction companies, logistics fleets, and supermarket chains to fully cooperate with the government's rescue efforts! Prioritize all supplies to the disaster-stricken areas! Remember, no matter the cost, no limit! I only want speed!"

"Yes! Mr. Chi! I'll do it right away!"

After hanging up the phone, the entire Chi Group started running at high speed in an instant, like a sophisticated war machine.

Overnight, the pessimism and fear about the earthquake on the Internet were strongly dominated by another piece of news.

Chi Group donated billions of dollars for disaster relief.

Chi Wenyan is the hardcore president.

The Chi rescue team has arrived.

Countless news and posts flooded in, and the hot search list was wiped out.

"Oh my god! Ten billion! That's real money! Is Mr. Chi emptying the company to help with the disaster relief?"

"Don't talk nonsense upstairs. This is the responsibility of a leading enterprise! The Chi family is awesome! Chi Wenyan is awesome!"

"I cried! Our community only received water and bread from Chi's Supermarket, and the rescue team is also from them! They said that President Chi gave a death order, and that lives are more important than money!"

"I used to think Chi Wenyan was cold and ruthless, but now I apologize! He only gave his cruelty to his enemies and his tenderness to the world!"

Public opinion completely reversed.

Amidst this overwhelming praise, a new topic quietly emerged.

"That plastic surgery freak Su Jiujiu, I heard he was crushed to death in the earthquake. It's really karma, no one can escape it!"

"Great! Now that this obstacle has been cleared, President Chi and Ji Wan must be fine!"

"Yes! After going through so much, they deserve the best! Please, get married right here and grow old together!"

"Mr. Chi is handsome and responsible, and Ji Wan is beautiful and kind. They are a match made in heaven! Lock them up! I'll throw the key into the Pacific Ocean!"
