Everyone present was shocked by Chen Jiaojiao's crazy act, including Li Ke. However, she quickly regained her composure and felt a little amused. Chen Jiaojiao must be the biggest calamity in Li Zhenzhen's life.
Not only was Li Zhenzhen asking Chen Jiaojiao why she did this, but Mo Bao'er also asked incredulously, "Why?"
Mo Bao'er couldn't understand it. In the past, as far as she knew, Li Zhenzhen had been very responsible towards Chen Jiaojiao, so it was hard for her not to condemn Chen Jiaojiao's crazy behavior at this moment.
Chen Jiaojiao laughed loudly with red eyes: "Why? Because she wants to abandon me, because she was the one who was cold-blooded and ruthless first. She can forget about getting rid of me, she never will!"
Cage said to Li Ke, "The wounds she sustained weren't fatal. The dagger was very thin and sharp, so the wound area wouldn't be too large. If we arrange for someone to help her now, we might still be able to save her."
Cage knew that Li Zhenzhen was Li Ke's biological mother. Although he had investigated their relationship, which was not very close, Chinese people have always valued family ties and ethics, so he took the opportunity to curry favor with them.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenzhen felt she still had a glimmer of hope. She quickly grabbed Chen Jiaojiao's hand and, calming her breathing, explained, "I never intended to abandon you, and I have never abandoned you. Jiaojiao, listen to me. Once I'm healed, we, mother and daughter, will continue to depend on each other. I know you're scared, and I don't blame you. Really, you've always been my most beloved child."
Chen Jiaojiao cried and said, "You're lying, you're the best at lying. I found out a long time ago. You're annoyed with me, you don't love me anymore. I just made a move on Li Ke, she won't let me go. You want to leave me and go with her, I won't let you have your way."
Tears welled up in Li Zhenzhen's eyes as Chen Jiaojiao cried out, her unconscious movements aggravating her wounds. The increasing pain caused her tear ducts to overflow, and her mind went blank.
She looked at Li Ke with pleading eyes. Li Ke was so powerful now that if she wanted to, she could easily kill the crazed Chen Jiaojiao and rescue her.
But Li Ke returned her gaze with only endless silence, just like many years ago when she watched the young Li Ke endure all kinds of grievances in the Chen family, and at the beginning he would cast her pleading eyes for help. Back then, she returned her silence.
Li Zhenzhen thought it was a ridiculous cycle.
She withdrew her gaze. Heaven was truly unfair. If only she had possessed Li Ke's current power when she was young, that power should have been given to her.
Chen Jiaojiao watched the change in Li Zhenzhen's gaze, then looked down and mocked her, "See? I told you she's cold-blooded. She won't kill you, but she won't save you either. I also know she'll definitely kill me, so even if I die, I'll take you with me. Don't even think about getting rid of me!"
Li Zhenzhen looked up at the child she had raised herself: "You're right, I've never loved you. I've wanted to get rid of you for a long time. I really regret not getting rid of you or ending things sooner."
I know you're an idiot, but I underestimated the extent to which an idiot can go crazy. Chen Jiaojiao, you always act stupid when you should be smart, and then somehow manage to be smart when you should be stupid. You're truly a speechless failure!
Chen Jiaojiao wiped her tears with the back of the hand that held the dagger and laughed, "So what? Stupid is stupid, but you gave birth to me and taught me. I've become who I am because of you! Even if I die, I won't let you live alone. That's enough."
Li Zhenzhen closed her eyes and ignored her. She was in too much pain, and talking would only cause her more suffering. Since she was destined to die anyway, she didn't want to suffer any more.
Chen Jiaojiao looked up at Li Ke: "You'll never get a mother's love in your life. So what if you're amazing? No one will love you, you illegitimate daughter, you freak, you cold-blooded animal! Li Ke, you'll always be that pitiful wretch who only gets a little bit of charity from me!"
Li Ke looked down at her and asked indifferently, "Is that so? Then what are you feeling guilty about? What are you going crazy about? You're the one who's made yourself into a real pathetic wretch, desperately trying to hold onto something you can no longer grasp. As for me, I haven't cared about those things you mentioned for a long time."
Mo Bao'er stood beside Li Ke, feeling indignant on her behalf: "It's not that no one loves her. I love her, her biological father loves her, and her younger brother Mo Cheng will love her too. The real cold-blooded animal, the freak, is you, you pathetic wretch."
Chen Jiaojiao yelled at Mo Bao'er: "You're just as hateful as her, you both deserve to die!"
Seeing Chen Jiaojiao's impotent rage, and how her excited shouting caused Li Zhenzhen to also look pained, with blood even trickling from the corner of her mouth, Li Ke suddenly felt like laughing, but fortunately she restrained herself.
After all, the person who was about to die was her biological mother, and it was inappropriate for her to laugh at this moment.
But Chen Jiaojiao had truly gone mad. She seized that moment, grabbing Li Zhenzhen's hair to force her eyes open: "Look! Your formidable eldest daughter is laughing when she sees you're about to die! Look at her! And you still want to abandon me like this? You don't even love me? Who else would want you but me? You're the biggest failure! I used to love you so much, and you've driven me crazy little by little!"
Li Zhenzhen had had enough of this selfish idiot going crazy. With her last bit of strength, she snatched the dagger from Chen Jiaojiao's hand and plunged it into her chest.
Chen Jiaojiao stared in disbelief at the dagger in her chest, then gave Li Zhenzhen a sorrowful smile: "Mom, you really killed me..."
Li Zhenzhen suddenly remembered that when she was young, she was also very attached to her mother, and that Chen Jiaojiao was also adorable when she was young.
