Chapter 146: All Efforts Made in Vain
As he watched the puddle of water on the ground grow larger and larger, the madness in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Serves you right!
They all deserved it!
Isn't Ning Xin trying to climb up by stepping on her head?
Wasn't Zhang Yanfei trying to take advantage of the child in her belly?
Now look what's happened, all our efforts have been in vain!
Lu Niannian felt that the tightness in her chest had finally dissipated. The anger she felt from being humiliated by Zhang Yanfei had now turned into the pleasure of getting revenge on Ning Xin.
She even felt that her little bit of harassment was nothing.
It was just a scare tactic outside the window; no one was killed.
I was too kind-hearted. If someone else had been bullied like this, I would have made sure Ningxin and her unborn child died together!
Seeing Ning Xin's frightened expression, Lu Niannian couldn't help but laugh out loud.
As the weather gradually gets colder, she stood outside in her hospital gown, her hands and feet feeling numb from the cold wind.
Seeing that Ning Xin was too scared to stand up, Lu Niannian felt that it was enough and turned to leave.
Just as she turned around, her foot slipped.
He stumbled and fell to the ground.
A loud, muffled thud was heard—
Ning Xin subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound and saw a blurry face on the window.
This figure looks somewhat familiar...
Ning Xin was stunned.
A few seconds later, I quickly realized that the person outside the window was Lu Niannian!
That bitch Lu Niannian, how dare she scare her!
Ning Xin instantly stopped being afraid, her eyes turning bloodshot.
"Lu Niannian, I'll go to your ancestors!"
Thinking about how she had actually peed herself because of Lu Niannian, Ning Xin couldn't care less about her fear and stomachache at that moment.
She stretched her neck and yelled at the outside of the window.
He was about to unleash all the swear words he had accumulated over two lifetimes.
"You just wait, I'm not done with you yet! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
The road outside the window was badly damaged this time.
She was already very thin, with little flesh on her body, and this fall was so sudden and unexpected, without any protection.
After a long time, I was still in too much pain to walk.
Upon hearing the cursing from the ward, Lu Niannian was taken aback, then burst out laughing.
To become a ghost?
She's not afraid at all.
What kind of trouble can a fool who can't even protect his own child cause even if he becomes a ghost?
Lu Niannian was too lazy to waste words with Ning Xin. She got up from the ground and dusted herself off.
He braced himself and picked up a stick from the side.
The night wind was cold, and Lu Niannian shivered. The wound on her forehead, which had been stitched up during the day, began to ache again.
Lu Niannian scratched her head.
I touched a sticky bloodstain.
The wound probably reopened because of the excessive movement.
She frowned, deciding to go to the nurses' station later to have a nurse treat her.
Lu Niannian's favorite thing is her own face.
Everything can be destroyed, but not this face.
Now that she has achieved her goal, it's time for her to leave.
If someone finds out she's faking it here, she'll be in big trouble.
As for calming the mind?
Anyway, even if she says she was just bluffing outside, no one will believe her.
Without any witnesses or physical evidence, Lu Niannian has already planned it all out: she'll just say Ning Xin is mentally ill and talking nonsense.
Lu Niannian glanced one last time at the ruins inside the window, then turned around and tried to climb over the railing.
As soon as I moved, I heard a scream from inside the house.
Then, for some unknown reason, Ning Xin opened the window and lunged at her.
Lu Niannian couldn't dodge in time and was grabbed by the hair by this crazy woman.
It's unclear where Ning Xin got the strength from, but she used her left hand to protect her stomach and her right hand to grab Lu Niannian's hair and pull it back and forth.
Later on, they even started using both their left and right hands together.
They slapped that face repeatedly, left and right.
For a moment, only the crisp sound of slapping could be heard inside and outside the house.
Lu Niannian already had a wound on her forehead, which was bleeding again. Now, after being violently beaten by Ning Xin, it was already a mangled mess.
Fresh blood trickled down the gauze.
Finally, it flowed into my eyes.
Lu Niannian was beaten so badly she couldn't open her eyes. She instinctively tried to struggle, but there was nothing under her feet, and the only thing she could step on was the railing.
She sways whenever she moves her body.
If she falls again, Lu Niannian can't guarantee she'll be unharmed.
So Lu Niannian could only grit her teeth and try to find a chance to break free from Ning Xin, that crazy woman.
"Are you crazy, Ning Xin? Let me go!"
Lu Niannian roared and grabbed wildly with both hands, trying to pry Ning Xin's hands off her.
However, her hair was held tightly in the other person's hand, and with the slightest struggle, her scalp felt like it was being ripped off, causing her severe pain.
Her body was hanging outside the railing, with the cold ground beneath her feet.
If Ning Xin exerts just a little more force, Lu Nian Nian will be pushed down.
"I'm insane! You drove me insane, Lu Niannian! You ruined my child! Today I'll make you pay with your life!"
"Let me tell you, you've messed with the wrong person. I, Ning Xin, am not someone to be trifled with. Anyone who dared to mess with me in this lifetime is probably already buried with grass growing several meters high!"
Ning Xin was spoiled by her mother from a young age.
From the novel onwards, she was unyielding, and coupled with her inherently mischievous personality, she had a whole host of ways to torment people.
Ning Xin grabbed Lu Niannian's hair and choked her neck, as if to scare her, and kept pushing her over the railing.
It must be admitted that Lu Niannian was indeed frightened.
But she stubbornly refused to back down.
"You think you're worthy to ask me to pay with my life?" Lu Niannian was trembling with pain, but she still managed to retort.
"It's your own fault for being useless. You couldn't even protect your own child, and all you did was fight with me. Now that you're going to lose your child, what does that have to do with me? Stop trying to smear me!"
"If you ask me, you shouldn't have come. I've seen some pregnant women throw tantrums and roll around on the ground and nothing happens, so why did it happen to you so easily?"
"Ning Xin, are you desperate for money? Are you trying to scam me here?"
These words completely infuriated Ning Xin.
She looked down at Lu Niannian struggling in her hands, then glanced at her own stomach.
Fortunately, she was just startled, and the baby in her belly was perfectly fine.
Ning thought that if the child was really scared to death by her, she would definitely kill Lu Niannian.
He let go of Lu Niannian's hair and pulled it down.
Almost instantly.
Lu Niannian screamed, her body leaning forward uncontrollably, half of her body hanging outside the railing.
She was all talk and no action.
Actually, my hands had already started grabbing at things haphazardly for a while, and finally I reached the window.
If it weren't for his fingernails digging into the window crack, he probably would have fallen out long ago.
The sudden movement caused the wound on his forehead to reopen, and blood splattered all over his face.
"Lu Niannian, you've finally met your match! Weren't you always so arrogant because of your family's power? Didn't you look down on me? Now you're like a dog in my grasp. Tell me, if I let go, won't you fall and smash to pieces?"
Lu Niannian's heart pounded wildly; the fear of death gripped her instantly.
She was scared, truly scared.
She never imagined that Ning Xin, this seemingly weak and vain woman, could be so ruthless when pushed to the limit.
"Ningxin, don't do anything reckless!"
Lu Niannian's voice was choked with sobs, and her previous arrogance was gone.
"I was wrong, I shouldn't have scared you. Please let me go, and I promise I'll never bother you again!"
"Now you realize you were wrong? Too late!"
Ning Xin sneered and increased the pressure on her hand.
"If my child is gone, my life is over. Why should I let you go? I'll drag you down to hell with me!"
Just then.
Hurried footsteps and nurses' shouts echoed down the corridor.
"Ningxin! How are you? The doctor is coming right away!"
Ning Xin's movements suddenly stopped, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.
She knew she couldn't delay any longer; if someone saw this, she wouldn't get away with it.
But looking at Lu Niannian's face, stained with blood yet still exuding a certain arrogance, she couldn't suppress the hatred in her heart.
She gritted her teeth, suddenly loosened her grip on Lu Niannian's hair, and then shoved her hard!
Lu Niannian was already suspended in mid-air, and with this sudden push, she instantly lost her balance.
She screamed, her hands flailing wildly in the air, but she grabbed nothing.
Her body plummeted downwards, and she could even feel the wind whistling past her ears.
"Bang--"
With a muffled thud, Lu Niannian fell heavily to the ground.
Intense pain shot through my limbs and bones, as if my bones had been shattered.
She lay on the cold ground, her vision blurring and her consciousness fading.
Ning Xin leaned against the windowsill, looking at Lu Niannian lying motionless on the ground, her chest heaving violently.
Although it's only the height of the first floor.
However, to prevent water accumulation during rain, the first floor of the military hospital was specially raised, so from the outside it looks no different from the second floor.
The fall was extremely hard; Lu Niannian felt as if her internal organs had been dislocated.
A metallic sweetness welled up in her throat, but she forced it back down.
Lu Niannian tried to prop herself up and get up, but every part of her body ached.
The moment her fingertips touched the cold ground, she gasped in pain.
Blood was still streaming down her forehead, blurring her vision. Everything in front of her became blurry, leaving only a blinding red.
Ning Xin leaned on the windowsill, looking down at her, the hatred in her eyes still lingering.
But I felt a bit scared afterwards.
She was truly desperate just now, wanting nothing more than to take Lu Niannian down with her.
But when she actually saw Lu Niannian lying on the ground, half-dead, her heart still started pounding uncontrollably.
The commotion downstairs quickly alerted the people in the surrounding wards. Some people opened their windows to look out and immediately let out a gasp.
"Look! Someone has fallen!"
"Isn't that a patient in the inpatient ward? How come they're bleeding so much?"
"Oh my god, falling from such a height, even if you don't die, you'll be crippled."
"Whose patient is this? Someone has fallen down! Come out and check on them!"
She almost killed someone just now.
The moment the thought crossed Ning Xin's mind, she shuddered, a chill creeping up from the soles of her feet.
She subconsciously touched her stomach.
It still hurts a little, but thankfully there's no more bleeding, so the baby should still be there.
As long as the child is still alive, she still has leverage and a chance to turn things around.
Ning Xin composed herself, and her eyes turned fierce again.
Lu Niannian's current predicament is entirely her own fault; she deserves it!
Even if she really did fall to her death, it was her own fault, and it had nothing to do with me!
The footsteps in the corridor grew closer, and the voices of nurses and doctors could be clearly heard.
Ning Xin took a deep breath, suddenly threw herself onto the bed, curled up, clutched her stomach, and began to cry loudly.
"My stomach hurts so much...my baby...waaaaah..."
She cried so hard it was heartbreaking, her voice filled with despair, that anyone who heard it would feel pity.
The nurses rushed in.
Seeing Ningxin clutching her stomach, because she had miscarried again, they quickly took her to the emergency room next door.
Half an hour later.
Wait for Zhang Yanfei to return.
Ning Xin has already come out of the emergency room.
Fortunately, her condition is still relatively good, but if her emotions fluctuate too much, even if a miracle were to happen, the baby in her womb would not be saved.
Upon hearing that the child was still alive...
Ning Xin and Zhang Yanfei both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Just as the two were about to return to their ward, they heard a commotion downstairs, as if something big had happened.
Ning Xin thought of Lu Niannian, whom she had pushed off the building, and her face instantly turned ugly.
It suddenly occurred to her.
If Lu Niannian talks nonsense after being rescued, wouldn't her past actions also be exposed?
Judging from the Lu family's perspective, they definitely won't let her go.
Thinking about this, Ningxin felt her stomach start to hurt again.
She wanted to pull Zhang Yanfei back to the ward quickly, but Zhang Yanfei had already been drawn to the place.
He was clearly taken aback when he saw that the person lying on the ground was Lu Niannian.
"Lu Niannian? Why would she jump off a building for no reason?"
"I don't know," Ning Xin said, pretending to know nothing. "Maybe she couldn't accept the fact that she was disfigured, and in a moment of despair, she jumped off the building."
Anyway, Lu Niannian's ward is upstairs.
Then she'll insist that she couldn't think straight, and no one else can do anything about it.
Upon realizing this reason, Ning Xin's expression immediately softened considerably.
Zhang Yanfei frowned, thinking deeper into Ning Xin's words, a calculating glint in his eyes.
Lu Niannian's fall might not be easy for her to get back up. If Lu Jiaxiang's side loses its composure, his application for a spot might go more smoothly.
He glanced at Ning Xin, whose face was pale, and put his arm around her shoulder, his tone reassuring: "Don't think too much about it. She brought this on herself. It has nothing to do with you."
Ning Xin forced a smile, but the weight in her heart remained unresolved.
She felt that this matter wouldn't just end like that.
Lu Niannian is a person who is always vengeful and will never let her go as long as she has a breath left.
As the two were talking, they saw several doctors and nurses hurriedly carrying a stretcher and running towards the emergency room.
The person on the stretcher was covered with a white sheet, but their wrists were pale, and bloodstains on their forehead soaked through the gauze, a shocking sight.
Ning Xin's heart skipped a beat, and she gripped Zhang Yanfei's arm tightly.
She dared not look closely, but couldn't help stealing glances. She only breathed a sigh of relief when the stretcher disappeared at the entrance of the emergency building, but her back was already soaked with cold sweat.
"Let's go back to the ward and lie down. Don't disturb the baby."
Zhang Yanfei patted her on the back, but his gaze remained fixed on the direction of the emergency building, as if he were plotting something.
Ning Xin nodded and was helped back by Zhang Yanfei.
