"You will!" Liu Xiangxiang suddenly looked up, staring into Liu Nian's eyes. "No matter what I've done wrong, the law will punish me. But we're from the same village, we live in the same village, you also have the surname Liu, we're even related. You can't just stand by and watch me have my leg amputated, can you?"
The villagers have lived here for generations, and human relationships are paramount. Liu Xiangxiang said this to evoke the villagers' sympathy, so when she arrived, she was crying and shouting, as if afraid others wouldn't know.
It's just so-called moral blackmail.
Liu Nian chuckled softly, almost bursting out laughing. Actually, Liu Xiangxiang wouldn't have her leg amputated at all; once the skin peeled off and a scar formed, she'd be considered healed.
So before the villagers could say anything, Liu Nian put on a righteous act and said, "Yes, we are all from the same clan, I will save you."
But then she leaned close to Liu Xiangxiang's ear and said in a voice only they could hear, "Actually, I was lying to you. You won't have to have an amputation. The pain will pass, and you'll get better slowly."
It's happening again! Liu Xiangxiang glared angrily at Liu Nian.
Liu Nian immediately put on a wronged look, "I already promised to save you, why are you looking at me like that?"
The villagers standing behind them immediately spoke up, "Liu Xiangxiang! You're repaying kindness with enmity! How dare you glare at your savior like that!"
"You don't appreciate anyone's kindness at all; I even turned saving you into an enemy!"
"It's only because Nian is kind-hearted. If it were me, I wouldn't save you!"
"You worthless slut, just fend for yourself! You have the nerve to ask someone to save you!"
Everyone praised Liu Nian again, showering her with compliments.
Liu Nian raised an eyebrow. If she said she wouldn't save them, it would be the same group of people who would accuse her of disregarding the feelings of her fellow villagers.
They'll just say whatever makes sense to them.
“Come here, let me treat you.” Liu Nian grabbed Liu Xiangxiang’s hand.
Liu Xiangxiang quickly broke free.
"The treatment might be very painful," Liu Nian said to the villagers behind her. "Help me hold her down!"
Before Liu Xiangxiang could offer any further resistance, a group of volunteer villagers rushed forward and pinned her down.
With a cold smile on her face, Liu Nian slowly poured the salt water onto Liu Xiangxiang's festering skin.
"Ah—" Liu Xiangxiang screamed in agony, breaking out in a cold sweat as she trembled in pain.
"Liu Nian! You did this on purpose! You're deliberately torturing me!" Liu Xiangxiang was soaked through, her bangs plastered to her face, her face deathly pale, as she looked up and questioned Liu Nian.
"Liu Xiangxiang, you really know how to turn the tables." Liu Nian is the most innocent person right now, okay?
"Weren't you just crying and begging Liu Nian to save you?"
"How come you change your mind faster than turning the pages of a book?"
"I think Liu Nian shouldn't have bothered with you! She should have just let your hand rot away!"
Liu Xiangxiang wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she closed her eyes and fainted from the pain.
The pain was unbearable for most people; the ten fingers are connected to the heart, and Liu Xiangxiang wished she could chop off her own hands! Not only that, Liu Xiangxiang also had to receive education for stealing.
I'm in excruciating pain every day.
...
Liu Nian goes to the greenhouse once a day to give some guidance, and then stays at home to rest during her pregnancy, enjoying a carefree and sweet life.
Su Xu took meticulous and considerate care of Liu Nian every day, but he suffered terribly every night, rinsing himself with cold water several times, which made Liu Nian furious.
She smacked her lips. She could see it, but... she couldn't touch it...
“We have to restrain ourselves! Otherwise, it won’t be good for either of you.” Su Xu turned around and pointed to Liu Nian’s stomach.
Liu Nian shrank back, "I wasn't thinking anything!"
Su Xu hummed in agreement, his gaze fixed on her. "Yes, I think so."
What should we do then?
Liu Nian was worried.
