No. 544: Venting Dissatisfaction
The danger has been lifted, and the Meng family members have just come to their senses. They immediately think of Meng Rou, whose life or death is still uncertain.
Meng's father, Meng's mother, and even the injured Meng Ruikai, crawled to Meng Rou's side.
Meng Rou lay there like a rag doll, covered in blood, with a large hole in her stomach and no movement in her chest. Her body was ice-cold, without a trace of warmth, and it was clear she was no longer alive.
"Xiaorou, Xiaorou, wake up!"
Meng's mother seemed to be greatly stimulated. She reached out, grabbed Meng Rou's shoulders, and shook them continuously, but she never got any response.
Then, she hugged Meng Rou tightly, still murmuring, "Xiao Rou, it's okay, it's okay, mom is here, you will be fine, mom will definitely save you."
Meng Rou was held lifelessly in her mother's arms with her eyes closed, so naturally she couldn't make any response.
Father Meng and Meng Ruikai standing by also had sad expressions on their faces.
Although they had already known that Meng Rou would end up like this, when they really faced Meng Rou's death, they were still very sad and unable to accept the departure of their loved one.
Father Meng stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and placed it on Mother Meng's shoulder. He wanted to say something comforting, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them.
A piece of flesh had been torn off Meng Ruikai's shoulder, and blood was constantly flowing out. But at this moment, he seemed to feel no pain. He just knelt there quietly, looking at Meng Rou's body, his eyes slightly red, his hands clenched into fists, trying hard to suppress the cry that was about to come out.
If an ordinary person sees such a situation, he will inevitably feel sympathy.
But Zhong Nianyao wouldn't do that at all, because she knew in her heart that Meng Rou's death was already predetermined. From the day Meng Rou and Master Zeng colluded, she was doomed to a bad ending. If you try to get the skin of a tiger, you will end up being eaten by the beast until not even a bone is left.
Besides, Meng Rou wanted to kill her before. She would not have any sympathy for someone who wanted to kill her. She was not that saintly.
"Let's go!"
When she came to Lu Yichen, Zhong Nianyao spoke directly and then planned to leave with Lu Yichen.
The purpose of her coming this time was just to get rid of the ghost baby to prevent it from going on a killing spree and killing innocent people.
Now that the ghost baby had been dealt with, there was no point for her to stay any longer. As for the Meng family, they probably didn't have time to pay attention to her now!
Of course, she didn't care what the Meng family thought or whether they would be grateful to her. She just did what she thought she should do, so she didn't need others' gratitude.
Besides, there were many other people in this house besides the Meng family, and she couldn't bear to watch these innocent people die.
Seeing Zhong Nian Yao about to leave, Meng's mother, who was still holding Meng Rou tightly, suddenly woke up as if from a dream, put down Meng Rou's body, then quickly stood up and blocked Zhong Nian Yao's way.
Seeing Meng Mu suddenly blocking her way, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes. However, before she could say anything, Lu Yichen beside her had already uttered two cold words.
"Get out of the way!" Lu Yichen glanced coldly at Meng's mother who was blocking the way. His eyes were calm, but there was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Under that gaze, Meng Mu felt her entire body go cold, her heartbeat quickened, and she was almost breathless. This overwhelming sense of oppression stirred within her a deep urge to escape.
However, thinking of her daughter's tragic death, she tried to ignore the oppression Lu Yichen felt towards her. She turned her head and looked at Zhong Nianyao, then said, "Zhong Nianyao, you are so cold-blooded and heartless. You actually watched Xiaorou become like this. Why didn't you help her?"
By the end of her speech, her voice had risen a degree, and the tears in her eyes continued to flow out uncontrollably.
However, her messy hair and pale face all showed how desperate she was at the moment.
"oh."
Completely different from Meng Mu's hysteria, Zhong Nianyao seemed remarkably calm, even a little scary. "I know everything you said, so what?"
"Why should I save Meng Rou? She wanted to kill me, but I still wanted to save her. Do you think I look like a stupid saint?"
"Then you can't just stand by and watch someone die!"
Meng Mu was filled with grief and indignation at this moment, and she continued to look for an outlet for her anger, and Zhong Nian Yao was the outlet.
"Xiaorou is still young, so it's natural for her to make mistakes. However, you should at least give her a chance to correct her mistakes! But you didn't, and you just watched her die in front of us."
"You are obviously capable and have such an opportunity, but why... why... can you be so cold-blooded?"
"Cold-blooded?" Zhong Nianyao raised her lips with a sarcastic smile. "If I were truly cold-blooded, I wouldn't be here today. Don't forget, the reason you're still standing here and speaking these morally blackmailing words to me is because I just saved you."
These words left Meng's mother speechless.
But even so, when she looked at Zhong Nian Yao, her eyes were still full of resentment.
Sensing the malice emerging from Meng's mother, Zhong Nianyao sneered and said, "Also, is it really me who doesn't want to save Meng Rou? You gave up because you couldn't afford the medical fee!"
When she said this, a bright smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "As a family member, you are not willing to spend all your wealth to save her. Then, as an outsider, it is not convenient for me to say anything!"
Suddenly, a look of embarrassment appeared on the faces of Meng's father and Meng Ruikai at the same time.
On the other hand, after hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, Meng's mother's eyes widened and she quickly asked, "What do you mean? What medical fee? Why don't I understand anything?"
Zhong Nianyao looked meaningfully at Meng's father and Meng Ruikai behind Meng's mother.
Then, she smiled again and said, "Haha, if there's anything you want to know, why not ask your husband and son? I think they should be able to give you a reasonable explanation."
As for whether the explanation could satisfy her, that was another matter.
