Chapter 238: Struck by Thunder
boom!
A bolt from the blue!
Then, just as Qin's mother was about to pounce on Xiao Taohua, she was struck by lightning and fell to the ground, charred black.
Everyone present: ...
Whether it was Li Zhen and his group, Peng Li and his companion, or even the Peking University students who were secretly watching the spectacle, they were all dumbfounded and none of them could react.
Incredible, my pupils dilated, and I felt a surge of fear.
The first thing those who react quickly do after realizing what's happening is to take a step back, and then another step back. They just feel they should stay away from the person who was struck by lightning, otherwise what if the next lightning strike hits them?
It was a bolt from the blue, and it struck someone right in front of me. To be honest, many people probably haven't seen anything like it in their lives. Today, I'm lucky enough to witness it.
But this is just too devastating.
Forget it, forget it, I'd better stay away, even further away.
Some didn't even want to watch the excitement anymore; their lives were more important.
Only a few, including Li Zhen, who had been used to it since childhood, remained calm after their initial surprise.
Oh, I almost forgot, Little Peach Blossom is God's favorite daughter.
Although Xiao Taohua explained that she was her granddaughter, everyone still thought she was her daughter.
As for Qin's mother, who was struck by lightning on the ground, well, she deserved it!
Qin Yunzhi, who had been somewhat dazed, was now completely clear-headed. He quickly called out to his older sister, Qin's mother, then hoisted the person onto his back and hurried away. Before leaving, he wanted to say something to Xiao Taohua, but his older sister urged him on, so he could only turn his head and leave without looking back.
That's how the matter ended, all in a rather anticlimactic way.
Of course, it was the end for Xiao Taohua, but it wasn't so easy for Li Zhen.
After all, those things that just happened can't be ignored.
He glanced at Cheng Zhen, scoffed, and left with Xiao Taohua.
Cheng Zhen was full of questions, but Lei's words went blank. He just watched the person leave and it took him a long time to come to his senses.
"My goodness, this is the first time I've ever seen someone get struck by lightning. I don't know what heinous things they did, they deserve it! That family is no good!" Peng Li spat, still feeling lingering fear. If that lightning bolt had been slightly off-center, he might have been the one struck.
Even if they survive being struck by lightning, their reputation will definitely be terrible, and it might even affect their family.
I feel so fortunate when I think about it.
“Let’s go back too.” Cheng Zhen’s face was still a little pale. He thought the same thing as Peng Li. Fortunately, the lightning didn’t strike him. As for anything else, his mind was blank and he couldn’t think of anything.
"Let's go, let's hurry up and go, I'm afraid another lightning strike will come."
Tiandao: ...
What do you mean "again"? If that old hag hadn't suddenly pounced on him, how could the Heavenly Dao, a being as reserved as himself, have struck him with lightning? Even if he were to seek revenge, it would be through a series of coincidences, not something so simple and brutal.
Well, the Heavenly Dao doesn't acknowledge its own directness at all; it thinks it's very clever.
What do ordinary mortals know!
The person involved has left, but the impact of this incident is significant. The culprit is still that lightning bolt; we'll leave the gossip for later.
Qin Yunzhi carried his mother to the health center as quickly as possible. When the doctor saw the patient, he didn't know how to treat him. This was a case of being struck by lightning, not burned.
But no matter what, patients must be treated when they arrive.
However, this incident also caused quite a stir at the health center.
Although the bad days have just passed, there are still some taboos. For example, being struck by lightning is the only fate that happens to those who have done bad things. This made everyone in Qin's mother's ward unwilling to stay with her, for fear that something bad would happen if they stayed together.
Despite the doctor's best efforts, no one was willing to agree, and in the end, Qin's mother was given a private room.
After all, Qin Yunzhi is such a smart man, how could he possibly take his mother away from the hospital? If you're sick, you have to get treatment; you can't leave without it!
It's not that Qin Yunzhi is particularly filial, but rather that he's putting on a convincing act.
Besides, they still have some money on hand for the time being.
Not to mention what Qin's mother brought, even what Qin's eldest sister brought from home was enough to treat the illness.
It's not accurate to say that Qin's mother and eldest sister were brought by Qin Yunzhi, nor is it accurate to say that they were brought by Qin's eldest sister after something happened. To put it bluntly, Qin's mother and her group were brought by Cheng Zhen.
Yes, that's right, it was Cheng Zhen who found them, and he even gave Qin's mother and the others a lot of money to make this trip.
As for the reason, it was, of course, to let Xiao Taohua see Qin Yunzhi's family for who they truly were, and to let her know that she couldn't date or marry into such a family.
After all, if you really marry into that place, it's a place that eats people alive.
Cut off all possibilities at the root.
But Cheng Zhen never expected that Qin Yunzhi actually held a very high position in the family.
Qin's mother immediately told Qin Yunzhi the news, which led to the subsequent plan to turn the tables.
Yes, Cheng Zhen wanted Xiao Taohua to see the Qin family's shameful state, but Qin Yunzhi could devise a plan to show Xiao Taohua that even though the Qin family was poor, they had integrity and a good family atmosphere.
Women are emotional, and they might agree to something if they're moved.
That's how the scene at the school gate came about today.
Everyone was present, and Cheng Zhen thought things would go according to his plan. But in the end, it went according to Qin Yunzhi's plan, and by the end, the plot had spiraled out of control. Because all their scheming and plotting hadn't anticipated that Xiao Taohua, whom they had outmaneuvered, would have such a brilliant move.
Little Peach Blossom showed no emotion, no disgust, not even sympathy. She simply insisted that she was not familiar with Qin Yunzhi and treated him as a strange patient.
Yes, that's the result.
Therefore, neither Cheng Zhen nor Qin Yunzhi succeeded in their schemes.
But I'm so annoyed.
This is an outcome that no one wants to accept.
Not to mention Qin Yunzhi's situation of shooting himself in the foot, Cheng Zhen's situation was no less dire.
In fact, because of that lightning strike, these people didn't go near Xiao Taohua for a long time. It wasn't anything, they were just feeling guilty.
Nobody knows if he was struck by lightning because of designing the little peach blossom.
Li Zhen and the others were happy with this outcome; they didn't really think Qin Yunzhi and Cheng Zhen were any good people, and it was better if they didn't come. As for Xiao Taohua, she's currently developing her skills in psychology.
Yes, the professor said that regarding mental illnesses, the international term is psychology, meaning that one's mind is sick.
As for Xiao Taohua's medical skills, oh, the professor didn't ask, because they didn't think Xiao Taohua's medical skills would be very impressive. After all, it was only the beginning of the semester, and even a prodigy needs a gradual process to improve. They never expected that they would later be so disappointed when they learned about Xiao Taohua's medical skills.
They overlooked such a national player, just like Xiao Taohua's extraordinary talent back then.
How heartbreaking this is!
After that day, Qin Yunzhi never went to see Xiao Taohua again. Xiao Taohua was a little disappointed, after all, such a good patient, if only we could study him...
Well, luckily Qin Yunzhi didn't know. If he had, well, he would definitely have stayed far away. But Qin Yunzhi isn't idle either.
