Upon hearing Li Yao's words, Li's mother nodded knowingly and said, "No wonder. Today, she only sold real estate, not jewelry. She has a lot of jewelry from the auction, and quite a few people are eyeing it."
Seeing that her mother was in a good mood, Li Yao asked, "Mom, what did you buy today? Did you make any money?"
Upon hearing this, Li's mother nodded happily and said, "Of course we made a profit! She invited Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wu, as well as a few other ladies she usually gets along with. I guess she planned to let the highest bidder win, but they all agreed beforehand not to raise the price and even kept trying to lower it. I just followed along and picked up some bargains. To outsiders, I think I've been pretty generous."
As she spoke, Li's mother took out her tablet and showed it to Li Yao, saying, "Look, in that apartment complex where you live now, it's a large apartment, on the 17th floor, over 500 square meters. When I bought it for you a few years ago, it cost over 15 million yuan. Now, the market price for that apartment is over 18 million yuan. Your mother bought it for 12 million yuan. And these other apartments are all below market price, all in good locations."
As Li's mother spoke, her tone, which had initially been somewhat cheerful, suddenly choked up. She hugged Li Yao tightly and began to sob.
Seeing this, Li Yao gave the housekeeper a look, signaling them to leave first.
Li's mother cried for a while before calming down and saying, "When I saw her today, I suddenly remembered the dream I had of Yao Yao and your brother dying so tragically. How much did she hate our family? Even after your father and I passed away, she still wouldn't let you two children go. I've never said a bad word about her. When we were young, if someone spoke ill of her behind her back, I would stand up for her. You can imagine how deep that resentment was that made her son and his family treat my children like this. If your father hadn't told me to endure it, I would have slapped her a few times today."
Li Yao comforted her mother for a while and said, "It's alright, Mom. My brother and I are still alive. Xi Cheng won't be able to escape sooner or later. Dad has evidence of their family taking bribes. They can't hide."
Looking at Li Yao, Li's mother gently brushed the stray hairs from her ear and said, "It's fine to let Xi Cheng suffer, but you and your brother must remember not to get involved yourself. People like him will find it hard to get anywhere without money and face, and there are plenty of people who will kick him when he's down."
Li Yao nodded and told her mother to go upstairs to rest. She then called back the housekeeper and cooks in the yard and asked them to make a nourishing soup for her mother to drink that evening.
Afterwards, Li Yao nestled on the sofa to watch TV, her consciousness sinking into the [Spiritual Spring Space]. Today, Li Yao planned to try out the pliers on Yang Yingying.
She used specially made pliers to pull out all her teeth.
This time, Li Yao didn't control her head, so her head could move and her mouth could speak.
When Yang Yingying saw the pliers, she kept begging for mercy, saying many nice things, and even calling herself trash, begging the big boss not to torture her and to give her a quick death.
Li Yao remained unmoved and proceeded to pull out all of her teeth, fingernails, and toenails.
Looking at the woman with a blood-stained face, crying and wailing, Li Yao's impulse to immediately kill the Xi family when she saw her mother crying slowly dissipated.
Having traversed several worlds, her immense power has allowed her to do as she pleases, rarely showing any patience or restraint.
She knew that the years to come would be long, and she might become even more ruthless, but she didn't care. Whoever made her unhappy, she would make sure they never had a happy life.
