Lu Qing fell silent. She lowered her head and stared at the ground, feeling dizzy and aching all over.
She felt that in her more than 20 years of life, she had never felt so uncomfortable.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Li said to the third brother next to him, "Break her legs. I want her to taste the pain my son suffered."
The third brother nodded without hesitation and picked up an iron rod from the side.
Lu Qing screamed, "Please, please, don't do this to me!"
"Just let me go, I'll do whatever you want... Oh... Ah!"
Before he could finish pleading, the third brother had already made his move.
He used all his strength, swinging the iron rod with great force, and slammed it hard onto Lu Qing's leg.
One blow after another, all hitting the same spot.
After being hit five times, Lu Qing heard two cracking sounds, clearly indicating that her leg was broken.
She felt excruciating pain, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
Zhou Li snorted coldly and spat on the ground: "You dared to give me attitude at first, but why aren't you giving me attitude now, you stinking woman?"
The fourth brother walked to a corner, scooped up a spoonful of cold water, and splashed it on Lu Qing's face.
Lu Qing shuddered, slowly opened her eyes, and found only emptiness in them.
She knew she was doomed and would definitely be beaten to death; it was only a matter of time.
Zhou Li took out a box of needles from his bag and waved it in front of Lu Qing: "Do you know how the Japanese devils treated the underground party back then?"
"They inserted these needles one by one into the fingers of those underground party members."
"Take it away, take it away!"
Lu Qing struggled incessantly, his eyes bloodshot, like a demon.
But Zhou Li completely ignored her reaction, took out a needle and stabbed it into her fingernail...
At this moment, Lu Yang is teaching several chefs at a restaurant in Guangzhou how to cook Northern Chinese cuisine.
Although most of the customers here are from the south, they occasionally enjoy dishes from other regions.
If a restaurant always offers the same few dishes, many customers will find it boring and stop coming back after a while.
Lu Yang had worked in restaurants of all sizes for seven or eight years. Now, even if you asked him to prepare a Manchu Han Imperial Feast, he could do it without hesitation. Guiding these chefs was a piece of cake for him.
However, most of these chefs were from the south, and they were a bit clumsy when learning, so Lu Yang had to put in some effort to teach them.
During this period, Zhou Zhimin and Zheng Yuntao also contacted people in several other counties, planning to expand the restaurant and open branches in neighboring counties.
There are several restaurants like this in the neighboring county, but this one is the first established brand, and its business has always been very stable.
If we could open a branch in the next county, we shouldn't have to worry about finding customers.
Lu Yang readily agreed and let them make the arrangements.
He plans to open a catering company once he has opened enough stores.
These stores are all under the company's ownership, which makes them easy to manage.
He felt that Zheng Yuntao was suitable to be the company's vice president because he was a local and had a wide network of connections.
As for the garment factory and his brands, he plans to gradually hand them over to Yao Lili, while he also has other development plans for himself.
All of this has to wait until Li Xingran graduates. If a businessman doesn't have a powerful backer, he'll be at the mercy of others. So, before he has a powerful backer, he doesn't want to be the one to stick his neck out.
The following morning, Lu Yang received a call from Zheng Wei after school.
Zheng Wei spoke rapidly over the phone: "Han Bingcheng found Lu Qing. Lu Qing was beaten beyond recognition and is barely clinging to life."
"Han Bingcheng sent her to the ICU, and I heard that she barely survived."
"But the murderer who beat her up like this has not been caught."
Lu Yang was somewhat surprised that Lu Qing was still alive. He blamed Zhou Li for being too slow.
What's the use of just beating her? She'll be fine after a few days of lying down. The key is to kill her.
It's too late to say anything now.
He sighed helplessly and said, "Keep an eye on her. If she wakes up or dies, remember to let me know."
Lu Qing's condition was far worse than he had imagined; both her legs and arms were broken.
It was abruptly interrupted, and his entire body was bound like a mummy.
Multiple organs were damaged, and it will take at least one or two years to recover.
Zhou Li also dealt her a fatal blow.
When she woke up, it was three days later.
She gasped in pain at the slightest movement, her resentment towards Zhou Li reaching its peak.
How are you feeling?
When a doctor saw that he had woken up, he immediately went to her side and asked her questions.
Upon seeing the doctor, Lu Qing realized that she had been saved and treated, and was now out of danger.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said with difficulty, "Water."
The doctor immediately poured her a glass of warm water and slowly fed her the whole thing before asking, "Do you feel dizzy now? Do you feel tightness in your chest?"
Lu Qing said helplessly, "I feel uncomfortable from head to toe, and I can't feel anything that's more uncomfortable."
The doctor glanced at her and then walked out the door.
A little while later, several more doctors were called in and examined Lu Qing from head to toe.
After checking for more than an hour, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Most of them are superficial injuries, not life-threatening, and can be transferred to a regular ward."
The attending physician immediately made a decision and then hurriedly left.
Mr. Han's people quickly completed the formalities and transferred Lu Qing to a regular ward.
Lu Qing did not see Mr. Han; Mr. Han only hired a caregiver for her.
She felt a little disappointed. When people are injured or sick, they always hope that someone will spend more time with them.
But this Mr. Han clearly had no interest in her whatsoever.
Lu Qing lay there in a daze, with no intention of calling the police.
Because she knew in her heart that if she called the police, she would be exposed.
At that time, although she can send Zhou Li and the others to jail, she herself will also have to go to jail.
Zhou Kewei was seriously injured, not to mention that she had drugged Gu Baiyu.
Both the Zhou and Gu families are very powerful. If she goes to prison, she might be beaten even worse than she is now.
While she's outside, at least Mr. Han can look after her. But if she goes inside, Mr. Han won't be able to take care of her anymore.
She'll be completely helpless then.
With these thoughts in mind, even though she harbored resentment, she didn't call the police.
When the police came to question her, she said she didn't know who hit her; those people were all masked and didn't say a word.
She may have offended someone, but she doesn't know who.
As the police left, their eyes were full of suspicion, but Lu Qing pretended not to notice.
She lay there in the hospital, unable to do anything, feeling nothing but resentment, as if the whole world had abandoned her.
Zheng Wei secretly disguised himself as a caregiver and observed her for a while before running out of the hospital to report her current situation to Lu Yang.
"Boss, Lu Qing is badly injured and is paralyzed in bed. However, it seems that the people who kidnapped him did not let him go. I saw those people again at the hospital these past few days."
