Chapter 56: Stubborn
"Cause and effect are cyclical, and retribution is inevitable." Zhong Nianyao answered irrelevantly, "The only one who can save you is yourself. The reason you have such a bad result today is all because of the causes you planted in the past."
"Miss Zhong, what do you mean by this?" Meng Kairui's tone became a little sharp. "Xiao Rou is just a child. Now she has encountered such a thing, and you actually say that she deserves it!"
Father and Mother Meng's expressions were not very good either. They were not fools, so they naturally understood what Zhong Nianyao meant.
In their opinion, their daughter is well-behaved and sensible. She is reluctant to step on even the ants on the road. How could she do anything bad?
However, since Zhong Nian Yao is probably the only one who can save their daughter now, they can't say anything.
"Whether it's true or not, she knows it clearly in her heart!"
Zhong Nianyao's expression remained unchanged, and she didn't show any anger. Although she was answering Meng Kairui's words, her gaze was still on Meng Rou. "Do you want to tell your family what you did? So that they can also know why you became like this."
Under those eyes that were as clear and deep as bottomless well water, Meng Rou felt that all her secrets seemed to be exposed. She dodged and dared not look directly.
"What can I say? I don't even know what you're talking about. You should figure out your identity. You're just someone my parents sent to rescue me."
Zhong Nianyao glanced at Meng Rou deeply, then turned around and shouted to the dumbfounded Zhao Xuanlang, "Okay, let's go!"
"Huh?" Zhao Xuanlang was completely stunned, even a little confused. "Boss, what are you talking about? Are we leaving now?"
"Yeah!" Zhong Nianyao nodded and said indifferently, "Since they themselves don't want to live, why should we outsiders be so anxious?"
After saying that, she walked straight towards the door.
Seeing that Zhong Nian Yao was about to leave, the Meng family became anxious. They hurried forward to stop her and apologized.
"Miss Zhong, please don't leave!" Father Meng hurriedly stopped her, "You can't just watch someone die like this! Please, save Xiaorou!"
"Yes!" Meng's mother also quickly agreed, "Miss Zhong, as long as you are willing to save Xiaorou, no matter how much it costs, we are willing to give it to you."
"Money?" Zhong Nianyao sneered. "I think Zhao Xuanlang didn't introduce me to you just now! My grandfather is Zhong Hairong. Although our Zhong family is not a top-notch wealthy family, we are not short of money."
Upon hearing this, Father Meng and Mother Meng exchanged a look of shock. They also remembered that the name Zhong Nianyao was indeed very familiar. She was the youngest granddaughter of the Zhong family and Zhong Mingxin's only daughter. Ever since Zhong Mingxin's disappearance, it seemed that all of his property had fallen into Zhong Nianyao's hands.
Because of the preference of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, no one else in the Zhong family dared to covet these properties.
Suddenly, they felt a little discouraged. Because if even money couldn't move Zhong Nianyao, then they had no other options. Could it be that they really had to watch Zhong Nianyao leave like this, and then let Xiaorou continue like this?
Mother Meng gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Zhong Nianyao. "Miss Zhong, please, Xiaorou is still young and can't continue like this. As long as you are willing to save her, you can ask me to do anything."
Everyone was shocked by this sudden change.
After Meng's father and Meng Kairui came to their senses, they immediately stepped forward and helped Meng's mother up.
Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown, then shook her head. "If you have the energy to beg me here, you might as well persuade Meng Rou. Now the only one who can save her is herself."
Mother Meng quickly came to the bedside, then reached out and patted Meng Rou's shoulder, urging her, "Xiao Rou, what on earth did you do? Tell me now! Do you really want to continue like this?"
"Hurry up and tell me." Father Meng's tone became stern. "If you insist on not telling me, then we will not care about you. Whether you live or die will depend on your own luck."
"Husband." Mother Meng raised her head and looked at Father Meng with pleading eyes.
"A loving mother often spoils her child." Father Meng shook his head, a hint of dejection and weariness in his expression. "She won't even tell the truth now, how can we help her? Hasn't our family gone through enough trouble for her during this period of time?"
"Dad, Mom, why don't you believe me?" Meng Rou suddenly lost her temper. "It's just a little girl talking nonsense, and you believe her and think I really did something bad. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Zhong Nianyao, her expression filled with hatred. "It's all you, you're talking nonsense. I didn't do anything. I was just harmed by someone, so I became like this. What kind of master are you? You can't even see this."
Although she spoke loudly, Meng Rou's eyes flickered. She knew very well that she must never tell anyone about the things she had done, otherwise they would no longer be able to love her like this.
"Still so stubborn, huh?" Zhong Nianyao's lips curled up into a sarcastic smile. "Do you really think that as long as you are stubborn, everything you have done will disappear? Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done, and you are no exception."
As she spoke, Zhong Nianyao walked towards Meng Rou step by step. "Do you really think you will just be tortured like this forever? You are too naive. You wanted his life, and now he wants yours too. He wants you to go down and accompany him. It won't be long. In just ten days or half a month, he will tear open your stomach and crawl out."
"When that time comes, it will be the time when you die."
After saying that, Zhong Nianyao turned around without hesitation.
When Meng Rou heard Zhong Nian Yao say that she would die, she was filled with fear. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.
Moreover, just as Zhong Nianyao turned around, she suddenly felt her stomach ache again. The pain was different from the usual pain. Although the pain before was severe, it was still within the tolerable range.
But this time it was an indescribable pain, as if someone had reached into her stomach and started tearing her internal organs.
She couldn't bear it any longer and started screaming.
