So she chose Fu Mingqing, the man who had returned from his disappearance and changed his mind. Since they were both scumbags, she wouldn't feel guilty.
Xiao Li sighed deeply. Liu Yilin was a pitiful person. After getting married, she spent her days indulging in pleasure to numb herself.
She also couldn't be a good mother because her daughter, Fu Ranran, was more like Qiao En. Facing her daughter stirred up her pain, and she couldn't face it.
"Is Jon really dead?" Xiao Li felt that something was very strange about it.
123 was astonished. "Master, how did you know? Jon did not die, but he is disabled. He is an orphan with no relatives. After becoming disabled, he deliberately hid, so no one could find him."
Xiao Li shrugged. "Isn't that how the script is always written? I also hope he doesn't die. Go check where he is."
Why is he hiding?
"Because he didn't want to be a burden to Liu Yilin, he felt he wasn't good enough for her anymore. Besides, Liu Yilin got married too quickly, and he didn't expect his lover to get married so soon after he came back."
"He is currently in Gushi, at No. 87 Fenghuang Road."
Xiao Li said goodbye to her family and set off. When she saw Qiao En, she realized why the man refused to show up.
He had two long cuts on his face, one running from his left forehead to his right cheek, which almost injured his eye.
Another scar ran from his left cheek to his chin, almost completely ruining his face. The ugly, sunken scar was chilling.
What's even more terrifying is that his hands and feet were fractured, and even after they healed, they affected his ability to walk, leaving him a cripple.
Xiao Li had the system check his life story. He had excellent grades and was an upright person. He should have had a bright future, but unfortunately, it was ruined by a natural disaster and a man-made calamity.
Yes, it was an accident, and a man-made one at that.
The accident occurred at a popular tourist spot, which is located in a geological disaster area. The weather forecast for that day indicated that convective clouds were forming in the area, which would be accompanied by short-term heavy rainfall.
Upon receiving the report, the town government immediately organized patrol teams and volunteers to persuade tourists playing in the water along the river within its jurisdiction to leave.
Fu Mingqing and Tong Xiaoxiao also went that day, which was upstream from where Liu Yilin and Qiao En were playing.
When volunteers came to persuade her to leave, Tong Xiaoxiao refused to leave because she wanted to take pictures, which caused a conflict with the volunteers, preventing them from going downstream to notify the volunteers in time.
Meanwhile, the tourists downstream were unaware of the impending danger until the floodwaters swept in and carried away several tourists. Only then did everyone panic. After Jon pushed Liu Yilin ashore, he was swept away by the water.
Liu Yilin's decision to marry Fu Mingqing was also partly a way of getting revenge on him.
Xiao Li looked at the man in front of her and stated her purpose directly.
"Liu Yilin has always loved you. Would you like to go back?"
Jon gave a wry smile. He didn't know how this girl found him or how she knew about his relationship with Eileen, but he didn't want to ruin her current family.
"You can leave. I don't want to go back. Please don't tell Yilin about me. She'll forget me in time."
"Her child is yours, you know that?"
Jon was stunned. He couldn't believe it, but then he felt relieved. So, she got married so quickly because of the child?
“Yilin…”
Even so, he couldn't bring her happiness.
"I can cure you, would you like to try?"
Jon suddenly raised his head, his eyes sparkling with expectation.
"But what do you want?" Jon slowly calmed down. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Xiao Li smiled and said, "I just want to see Fu Mingqing make a fool of himself, to see him suffer, and I'll do you a small favor while I'm at it."
Whether or not you are cured is up to you, and whether or not you believe in me is also up to you.
"Okay, I want to get treatment. Even if it fails, it doesn't matter. How much worse can it get? It won't be any worse than it is now."
And so, Xiao Li picked up the scalpel she hadn't used in a long time. Cosmetic surgery is actually very simple. With the spiritual spring water and elixirs at her disposal, restoring her original appearance was only a matter of time.
The serious damage is to Jon's hands and legs, where the ligaments are damaged to varying degrees, and there are even bone fragments remaining inside. Because his leg suffered a comminuted fracture, it is impossible for it to recover.
But is Xiao Li an ordinary person? She has plenty of spiritual herbs in her space, like the Rejuvenation Pill and the Restoration Pill.
What she needed to worry about was how Jon's mortal body could receive the powerful medicinal effects without damaging his meridians.
Fortunately, she eventually managed to refine a batch of ointment that ordinary people could use, which she called the Broken Heart Ointment.
Three months later, Jon had regained his original appearance, and he bowed deeply to Xiao Li.
"I am always ready to serve you whenever needed in this life."
Xiao Li nodded and accepted the promise.

Fu Mingqing stared at the divorce agreement in front of him, his anger rising to his head.
"Why? I've already given up Xiaoxiao and the child for you, why do you still want a divorce?"
Liu Yilin suppressed her inner joy and said, "Let's get a divorce. We shouldn't have gotten married in the first place. You have no feelings for me. Let's part ways amicably."
"No, I won't get a divorce, Yilin. I won't go back to Tong Xiaoxiao. Let's live a good life together, okay?"
Fu Mingqing understood that no matter how he and Liu Yilin were doing, as long as he was still Commander Liu's son-in-law, others would give him face.
“Fu Mingqing, you should just sign it. You have a son too. You don’t want me to expose this, do you? Then it’s hard to say whether you can still hold onto your position as battalion commander.”
"Are you threatening me?"
Let's just say that.
Fu Mingqing could only swallow his resentment; the consequences were beyond his control.
Six years later, he moved back to the Fu family home.
Tong Xiaoxiao didn't know what to feel. She hadn't even taken any action yet, and Fu Mingqing had already divorced her. It felt like she had picked up someone else's unwanted trash, and she just couldn't get over it.
She moved into the Fu family home with her son. Since they had just divorced, they couldn't have a big celebration, so Tong Xiaoxiao quietly got their marriage certificate as soon as she entered the house, without even holding a banquet.
Tong Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied, but in order to please her mother-in-law, she swallowed her anger.
Yue Chi never expected that, after all the twists and turns, Tong Xiaoxiao would still end up in her family. If only she hadn't opposed them in the first place, she would have let them be together sooner and saved 500,000 yuan.
It's all Tong Xiaoxiao's fault. Why did she run away? If we had talked to her a little longer, she might have agreed.
The original owner had been married for five years but had no children, so Yue Chi had a lot of opinions about Yu Xiaoli. When Tong Xiaoxiao brought back a four-year-old grandson, the Fu family immediately accepted her.
Now it's different. Fu Mingqing only brought Tong Xiaoxiao home after his divorce, which made her seem cheap. Even though Fu Mingqing is divorced, this woman is still eager to be with him.
The good times didn't last long. Not long after their marriage, Tong Xiaoxiao suddenly disappeared. The Fu family mobilized all their connections to search for her, but they couldn't find her.
