After receiving the call, Qi Zhifang pondered, "I don't have any money either. I'm just a cleaner now, and I can't even support myself. Whoever hurt her, go find them! If the person who hurt her won't take responsibility, then let her die!" With that, she hung up the phone.
If Wang Fang's lies in causing a rift between her and Xiao Hu, and she only felt hatred then, after Wang Dong's death, she truly wished him dead.
Even if Qi Zhifang was a terrible person, she still had feelings for Wang Dong. After all, he was her only son. After returning from the Northeast, she was willing to switch jobs with him and sweep the streets in his place. But when her son, whom she had raised, passed away, she didn't even have the right to see him off. The thought of this made her heart ache as if it were being torn apart. Since Wang Dong left, she had aged considerably, like a wild lily that had withered overnight, smelling worse than mud.
When Qi Zhijun received the call, he didn't even think twice. "She has her own mother, she doesn't need me. Besides, I'm not in good health, I can't take care of her. At worst, there's still the family of the person who hurt her, right? Surely they can't get away with hurting someone without any punishment?" He hung up the phone. His only feeling about Wang Fang now was that she had only herself to blame. In the past, he could let it go by spending some money, but now he was risking his life! Although he wasn't very lucky, he believed that it was better to live a miserable life than to die.
The doctors and nurses were dumbfounded. This girl had been stabbed like that and was still alive. Seventeen stabs, each one avoiding vital organs. What incredible luck! It was like she was dancing on the very edge of death, and even the most powerful demons couldn't catch her.
He barely escaped death, and no one is caring! After discussing it with the police, they went to Zhao Yunxiang's parents, but the elderly couple had given up and refused to pay the medical expenses, saying they could wait until he recovered and sue, and they would only pay whatever the court awarded. They wouldn't give a single penny now!
Unable to locate Wang Fang's workplace, the company initially paid her medical expenses, but only reimbursed them the following day!
When Li Qiuxiang learned of this, she was speechless! Wang Dong's compensation—a living, breathing person—was only half a year's salary, plus funeral expenses, totaling a mere 190 yuan. In other words, Wang Dong's life was worth only 190 yuan. What was even more infuriating was that the family refused to pay, which enraged her.
For their own and their son's reputation, they'd give away a few thousand dollars, three rooms, and job quotas without a second thought. But other people's lives mean nothing to them. This family is truly despicable!
After Li Qiuxiang returned, the two women, the aunt and sister-in-law, were having dinner. Li Qiuxiang casually brought up the matter of Wang Fang being attacked. Wang Hong only frowned and said, "She deserved it. It would have been better if she had been killed. By the way, sister-in-law, shouldn't we get my brother's compensation? If not, I'll go to that Zhao guy's workplace to ask for it. Even if he's no longer an official, he can't be shameless, can he?"
Li Qiuxiang scoffed and said, "Don't worry about this. I know what I'm doing! Just focus on your work. A young girl like you, stuck with a mother and sister like that, your reputation is ruined. If you get a reputation for being shrewish, you'll never get married." After finishing her meal, Li Qiuxiang went back to her room.
Yes! Everyone thinks Li Qiuxiang has gone mad because of Wang Dong's departure. Someone so greedy and calculating, how can she remain so calm almost a month after Wang Dong's passing, with the Zhao family still not paying the promised compensation? Even the Zhao family thinks Li Qiuxiang is afraid of them.
On Li Qiuxiang's bed lay the pillow Wang Dong had used before his death. She hugged the pillow to her chest and said bitterly, "In this life, only I, Li Qiuxiang, am destined to abandon others. Wang Dong, you son of a bitch, you're the first man who dared to abandon me. Just you wait, in the next life, don't let me meet you again!"
The tears flowed silently onto the pillow. She had learned to cry silently, even when her head ached, her eyes were dry and sore, and her heart was breaking. She had learned not to make a sound, but her eyes were very firm.
The next day, after getting up and going to get off work as usual, I went straight to the hospital after get off work. I wandered over to Zhao Aiguo's place and saw him gnawing on a pig's trotter by himself. Li Qiuxiang frowned and said, "Are you going to eat like this all the time? Aren't you afraid of getting as fat as a pig? You've gained at least ten pounds!"
Zhao Aiguo smiled nonchalantly, "Compared to when I was a kid, I'm all skeletal now! Besides, I'm injured and need to be healed, right?"
Li Qiuxiang said disdainfully, "You can't just eat pig's brain to make up for it, can you? Did you also make your brain out of a pig's brain?"
Zhao Aiguo paused, blinked, and realized he had indeed eaten quite a bit of pig brain; it was delicious! His grandparents and father all said eating more of it was good for the brain, and then…
Judging from his appearance, Li Qiuxiang knew he had eaten a lot, and sighed inwardly, "No wonder he's not very bright; sometimes he looks like a pig's brain."
Then he washed his hands, sat down, picked up a piece of pig's trotter, and while eating it, whispered in Zhao Aiguo's ear, "I need your help with something, you should..."
Zhao Aiguo hesitated and said, "Isn't this a bit illegal?"
Li Qiuxiang glared at her. "Can't you be more careful? Just tell me if you're going to help or not. If not, fine!"
Zhao Aiguo gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" Li Qiuxiang smiled and said, "I'll wait for your good news!" Then she turned around and left, leaving Zhao Aiguo alone. Even the pig's trotters didn't taste good anymore. He packed his things, washed up, looked in the mirror, and thought, "Hmm, I'm pretty handsome!" He then strolled over to the nurses' station and used his silver tongue to make the nurses laugh.
"Sister this, sister that, you don't need to worry about my work." She finished the task Li Qiuxiang assigned her with a heart full of trepidation, and then left gracefully.
Actually, Li Qiuxiang had instructed him to go to the nurses' station and find a way to replace Zhao Yunxiang's anti-inflammatory injection with glucose. It wouldn't kill him, but it wouldn't be very effective either. Zhao Aiguo took advantage of the time while chatting with the nurse to replace the anti-inflammatory medication with glucose. The nurse hadn't expected the prepared medication to be switched.
