The nurse was anxious and flustered, and quickly whispered to Su Qingjiao not to overthink it.
However, Su Qingjiao seemed determined to verify whether the nurse was lying.
"I don't want to get plastic surgery."
“From childhood to adulthood, I don’t know how many boys have pursued me. They would run out in the middle of the night to buy brown sugar water for me, and they would give me everything.”
"My face shape is the most perfect."
"These hospitals are all heartless; they're trying to scam me into getting plastic surgery to make money off me! I'm not disfigured; I'm perfectly fine. This is all a lie."
Su Qingjiao fiercely pulled at the gauze, trying to remove it from her head.
The nurse turned pale with fright. Seeing that she couldn't stop it, she could only fearfully go back to report to the head nurse.
With only a few floors left, the pain was so intense that Su Qingjiao felt weak even standing up.
Because she was so determined to tear it open, the gauze was stained with blood layer by layer, and the blood oozed out, bright red.
The strong smell of blood reached Su Qingjiao's nose, and upon seeing this scene, she finally faced reality.
Her body suddenly collapsed and fell to the ground with a thud.
She's really disfigured!
The nurse, along with the head nurse and a doctor, rushed over and found that Su Qingjiao had fainted again. They quickly carried her back to the hospital bed for emergency treatment.
Aunt Zhou told Zhou Yi the news she had found out. Upon hearing that Su Qingjiao was disfigured, Zhou Yi felt a surge of satisfaction.
Su Qingjiao is like a clown; no matter how much she jumps around, she won't die young.
Zhou Yi guessed she wouldn't die so soon, but he never expected that even though she collapsed where the fire first spread at the door, she was only disfigured and didn't even break a leg! She was really lucky!
"Ha, she got off easy."
Zhou Yi sneered.
Aunt Zhou looked out the window, a glint of shrewdness flashing deep in her eyes.
"This is just the beginning."
"The mother and daughter will not have a good ending."
The surveillance cameras have captured everything; it's just a matter of when the shareholders and the Su mother and daughter will make their move!
An hour later, Su's mother rushed to the hospital.
When Su's mother entered the ward, Su Qingjiao had already been awakened by pain again. Seeing the gauze on her face, Su's mother cried out, "Ah! Jiaojiao, what happened to your face?"
"How could it be so serious?"
Upon hearing her mother's concern, Su Qingjiao burst into tears and helplessly sought help from her mother.
"Mom, my face was burned and disfigured by the fire."
"The hospital said the only way to recover is through plastic surgery, and they said it would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."
Upon hearing this, Su's mother's expression changed drastically, and she blurted out, "How can it be so expensive? This must be a shady hospital. Why would someone want to get plastic surgery? It's such a waste of money."
"I see those advertisements outside, and cosmetic surgery only costs tens of thousands of yuan."
Hearing the crying stop and her daughter staring at her resentfully, Su's mother realized that her words had been a bit harsh.
She sat down awkwardly beside Su Qingjiao's bed, her eyes darting around before offering a suggestion:
"Jiaojiao, I heard that the explosion happened in the laboratory on the second floor of the school, so it's the school's responsibility."
"The school caused your burns, so they should pay for your plastic surgery!"
"Otherwise, we'll sue the school."
Su Qingjiao cried softly, but upon hearing her mother's words, she had other thoughts in her mind: "Mom, we can't let the school pay for it."
“If the school has to pay for it, my fake identity over the years will be exposed.”
"Zhou Yi doesn't care whether I live or die now. If I lose this identity, I'll still be stuck with a face that's been surgically altered."
"Do you think those rich kids at school will still be interested in me? Can I still marry into a wealthy family and make you a rich wife who can enjoy a life of luxury?"
"The only way to maximize our benefits right now is to grit our teeth and secure our status as the Zhou family's daughter."
After listening to Su Qingjiao's analysis, Su's mother realized that in the end, this was the only path left for her and her daughter!
Since Zhou Yi withdrew his kindness towards them, they found themselves with nowhere to turn.
Thinking this, Su's mother regretted it more and more, but it was too late. She could only helplessly hug Su Qingjiao and cry and wail, "Waaaaah, how could this happen!"
"Jiaojiao, our lives are so miserable!"
The mother and daughter hugged and wept for a while. The mother wiped her tears with her sleeve, then wiped Su Qingjiao's tears as well. She glanced cautiously at the door, and only after confirming that no one was eavesdropping did she speak:
"Jiaojiao, the matter is settled!"
"Mom has thought it through. Your face must be surgically altered to be the best and most beautiful, otherwise how will you marry into a wealthy family in the future! Since we can't ask the school for help..."
"Then let's ask that old shareholder of the Zhou family!"
"After all, you were disfigured because you were trying to help him get that thing."
A sinister glint flashed in Su Qingjiao's eyes.
For the past few years, she had relied on her beautiful face to win Zhou Yi's favor and live a life of luxury. Now, that face is ruined...
What will she do in the future?
This is absolutely unacceptable!!
Su Qingjiao gripped the blanket and said fiercely, "Mom, you're right. If it weren't for helping the shareholders, why would I have performed on stage? Why would I have disfigured myself to attract him?"
“If it weren’t for my daughter and me, the shareholders would never have been able to obtain the company’s confidential documents.”
Su Qingjiao asked her mother to give her the phone, then looked towards the door.
Su's mother understood and immediately went to the door to look outside. Seeing that there was no one in the corridor, she then told Su Qingjiao to feel at ease and make the call.
Su Qingjiao lost her phone at the fire scene and could only use her mother's phone to make calls.
Fortunately, when Su's mother helped him steal the secret documents, she had Su's mother save the shareholders' private phone numbers.
The call was answered after about ten seconds.
Su Qingjiao first described her miserable situation, and finally said, "My mother and I paid a huge price to help you get the confidential documents."
"In order to keep Zhou Yi, I even got my face burned and disfigured by the fire."
"The doctor said that cosmetic surgery will cost a lot of money, and you will have to pay for it."
Su Qingjiao finished speaking in one breath, still feeling a little timid, after all, the impression left on her by the previous shareholders was too deep.
That kind of cunning and scheming frightened her.
But by this time, her face was already disfigured by burns, and she had lost Zhou Yi's love. She had nothing left, so she might as well fight to the death!
With this in mind, Su Qingjiao's fear of the shareholders lessened considerably. She even thought that if the shareholders didn't give her money for plastic surgery, she would expose all the secrets and make them all die!
Su Qingjiao, who had already prepared herself for a fight to the death, never expected that the shareholders would readily agree to give her the money.
"Oh, I thought it was something serious. Money is just a number to me, that's fine."
"I can pay for this."
"but--"
Su Qingjiao's heart slowly rose, and she listened attentively to the shareholder's instructions.
"You haven't finished your work yet!"
“The secret is already in my hands. This secret alone is not enough to put Aunt Zhou in jail for life. I want you to add fuel to the fire before the Zhou family’s annual celebration.”
