Chapter 48: Blackmailing the Jiang Family and Strike the Snake at its Weakest Point
Hospital.
Sun Honghong lay on the hospital bed, her head and hands wrapped in gauze: "...What kind of lunch box did you buy? It's so disgusting!"
After saying that, he clapped his chopsticks.
Han Yunru stood in front of the bed and tried her best to endure: "I bought it in the cafeteria. Doctors also eat this."
"Who told you to buy it in the cafeteria? The doctor eats it, so why should I eat it too? Now it's your husband who beat me up. The doctor said I might have a concussion and told me to rest well! Do you know what rest means? Eating and drinking well makes you feel good, but how did you take care of me? You actually gave me something like this to eat. Do you have the nerve to do that?"
Han Yunru took a deep breath: "Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it now."
"That's right. I won't make it difficult for you. The doctor said you should eat a light diet. I think the fresh meat porridge at Huashanfu is good."
"Sun Honghong, don't push your luck!" Huashanfu is a famous "rich man's restaurant" in Linhuai. Even a bowl of porridge is not something a family like the Jiang family can afford.
"Why, are you worried about the money? Sister Han, let me remind you that Brother Jiang is still in the police station right now. If I refuse to tell him, will he go to jail?"
"you!"
Sun Honghong turned her head away and yawned elegantly. "I'm sleepy. Let's go buy it quickly. It will be dark if we wait any longer."
"Want to eat the fresh meat porridge from Huashanfu?" Suddenly, a half-smiling voice came from the entrance.
Jiang Fuyue stepped in and stopped in front of the bed, looking down at him. "Are you worthy?"
"Yueyue, you're here..." Han Yunru forced a smile.
Jiang Fuyue gave her a reassuring look.
"Hey, Sister Han, you called your daughter over?" Sun Honghong pinched her throat, a sneer creeping onto the corner of her mouth. "What? Are you planning to team up with your daughter to bully a patient like me? Don't blame me for being nosy, but your daughter doesn't seem to have much manners. You'll have to teach her a lesson from now on, otherwise her life will be ruined."
"You are in your forties after all. Just speak your mind. There is no need to be so sarcastic and disgusting!" Han Yunru was like an angry old hen.
It's okay for her to suffer a little injustice, but if anyone wants to make fun of her daughter - no, it's enough!
Sun Honghong quickly exclaimed, "Look at what you're doing? I just said it casually, but you're taking it so seriously. Really... These days, no one listens to the truth anymore!"
Han Yunru gritted her teeth in anger, and suddenly, she felt a warmth on the back of her hand.
She turned her eyes and met her daughter's calm gaze. Jiang Fuyue patted her twice again and said, "Mom, please go out first. Let me talk to this auntie alone for a while."
"But……"
"rest assured."
After Han Yunru left, the ward fell into a strange silence.
Sun Honghong suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck. She shifted uncomfortably and soon lost her composure.
"What do you want to tell me?"
"I heard everything you said just now." Jiang Fuyue said in a flat tone.
"That's great, it saves me from having to talk too much. If you really love your mom and don't want her to go through all this trouble, then why don't you just pack it up for me? Remember to add an extra portion of fresh shrimp, and omit the onions and ginger."
"It seems that Aunt Sun is determined to blackmail my family."
"Hahaha..." The woman laughed sweetly, "Don't say such harsh words. You're just lying. You're just like your mother. I don't want to think about anything right now. I'm just concentrating on recuperating. If I feel happy one day, I'll go to the police station and tell the police to release your father. But if I'm not happy, then..."
Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow: "Is this a threat?"
Sun Honghong was ignorant and fearless: "If you say so, then so be it."
"It seems that only if Mrs. Feng comes forward will you be willing to talk nicely, okay." Jiang Fuyue nodded and turned to leave.
"Stop—"
The woman's hands and feet were cold, but she still maintained a calm expression. "What are you talking about, Mrs. Wind and Mrs. Rain? I don't understand what you're talking about!"
Jiang Fuyue curled her lips: "If you really don't understand, you won't let me stop."
Sun Honghong's face changed.
Jiang Fuyue walked back to the bedside: "You said you don't know Mrs. Feng, but Feng Junxiang should know her, right?"
"Sorry, I've never heard of it." Even as he said that, his hands unconsciously clutched the bed sheets.
"You have a really bad memory. After all, he was your former benefactor. You followed him for five years and took away most of his wealth. How come you can't even remember his name?"
Sun Honghong's face turned pale, and she was sweating profusely. She suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Fuyue coldly: "Who are you?!"
Why do you know those things?
Jiang Fuyue ignored her rant, her tone still flat and indifferent, "After you took Feng Junxiang's money, he got into a car accident and became a penniless man with an arm missing. It was Mrs. Feng who stayed by his side, never abandoning him. Now the two of them have reconciled and are as loving as ever. You are the main contributor."
"But this couple are both petty and vindictive, as you should know best. Especially Mrs. Feng. When she was young, she relied on her father's notoriety and acted recklessly in the northwest. Later, she learned to restrain herself as a wife and mother, but that cruelty remained. What if I told her you were in Linhuai..."
"No! Please don't tell her..." Sun Honghong was trembling all over. The arrogance and complacency on her face were gone, leaving only fear and pleading. "You must not tell her, otherwise I will die. Please..."
Jiang Fuyue remained unmoved.
The woman immediately rolled off the bed, bent her knees, and knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly: "Please, I will die, I really will die..."
"Whether Mrs. Feng will know depends on whether your next actions can satisfy me."
After saying that, he strode away without even looking at the woman again.
That night, Sun Honghong paid off her medical bills and was discharged from the hospital.
The next day, she went to the police station in person and admitted that she was the one who attacked first. Jiang Da accidentally hurt her in order to protect his wife. Moreover, her injuries were not serious at all and she was already alive and well. Now she does not intend to hold Jiang Da responsible and hopes that the police comrades can also show mercy.
Soon, Jiang Da was released.
Sun Honghong chased after him and pleaded with him, "...Brother Jiang, this is all my fault. I shouldn't have spread rumors about my sister-in-law, and I shouldn't have hit her. I'm sorry, please forgive me."
Jiang Da had a cold face and walked forward in silence.
"It doesn't matter if you don't forgive me, but I beg you to plead with Yueyue on my behalf and ask her not to do such a cruel thing. I will be grateful to her for the rest of my life!"
"Yueyue?" Jiang Da stopped and looked at the woman with a puzzled look. "What does this have to do with her?"
Sun Honghong's expression was indescribable. After a long pause, she said, "...Anyway, just speak up for me! I promise not to cause trouble for you and your sister-in-law from now on. Even if we do meet, I'll avoid you."
Jiang Da returned home confused. Han Yunru was running around the house anxiously. She was shocked to see him.
"Husband, why are you back?! Are the police willing to release him? How much compensation do you want? Did Sun Honghong ask for a huge sum?"
She thought that if Jiang Da could come out, the compensation issue must have been discussed.
Otherwise, how could someone as profit-driven as Sun Honghong give in?
But in fact——
"Sun Honghong went to the police station to explain everything clearly and didn't ask for compensation."
"How is that possible?" Han Yunru frowned.
Sun Honghong's attitude in the hospital yesterday was not like this.
"Where is Yueyue?" Jiang Da asked.
