Chapter 43 Revenge is a dish best served cold



Mu Hehe looked up. "Yu Yao, what do you know? You just want to see me make a fool of myself. I won't let you have your way."

Yu Yao ignored her and instead looked at Su Ya, "I'm also thinking about Lu Yunqi. Since we're going to kneel and kowtow anyway, sincerity is the only way to win, don't you think?"

Mu Hehe: ……

So what? Sincerity is the ultimate weapon? Don't think she can't see that Yu Yao is plotting revenge.

But what else can she do now that things have come to this?

I should have known better than to use this trick. It's like trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, losing both my wife and my army.

Su Ya looked at Mu Hehe: "Her aunt is right. Hehe, for Yunqi's sake, just kneel down. The harder you kneel, the more sincere you are. When Yunqi wakes up, he'll remember your kindness. Huh?"

Mu Hehe could only nod stiffly.

Yu Yao kindly went over and took the cushion in front of Mu Hehe.

"Kneel down, at least make a sound to show your sincerity. Mu Zhiqing, you love Comrade Lu so much, it's time for you to perform, ah, no, to show your worth."

Su Ya looked at Mu Hehe expectantly: "Hehe, you are Yun Qi's benefactor. If you kneel down, Yun Qi will definitely wake up."

Mu Hehe couldn't smile.

We can't just say that all talk of benefactors is a lie; we can only grit our teeth and kneel down.

The clinic floor was paved with bluestone, and she didn't use any tricks to show her sincerity.

When he knelt down, his knees made a loud thud.

Mu Hehe winced in pain, tears welling up in her eyes instantly.

Yu Yao, however, couldn't resist watching the drama unfold. She took a bite of the watermelon in her hand and exclaimed in delight.

“My niece-in-law, you’re kneeling well. You have to use that much force to show sincerity. You should also increase the force of your kowtows.”

Lu Ze smiled helplessly.

He had previously worried that she would suffer a loss, but now it seems that with her vengeful nature, it's only others who will suffer.

Seeing watermelon juice on the corner of her mouth, Lu Ze took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Thank you." Yu Yao took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth as a matter of course. Seeing that Mu Hehe hadn't kowtowed for a long time, she kindly reminded her, "Niece-in-law, don't just stand there, strike while the iron is hot."

This scene, in Mu Hehe's eyes, became a thorn in her side.

Yu Yao is just a petty person who has gotten her way. Why does Lu Ze treat her differently?

Shouldn't he prefer a gentle, kind, and generous woman?

For example, someone like her.

Mu Hehe's smile completely vanished.

I'm unhappy in my heart, and I'm also physically uncomfortable.

Her knees must be swollen from kneeling just now.

Yu Yao also pointed out to her, "If you kowtow with that much force, will your head still look good?"

Since she was already injured, she couldn't let her efforts go to waste; she had to let Su Ya see her true feelings for Lu Yunqi.

After figuring it out, Mu Hehe slammed her head on the ground, her forehead turning red.

He kept muttering, "Please forgive Yunqi for our sincere remorse. Yunqi, please wake up, we are all very worried about you."

Next is the second one.

Yu Yao was enjoying the drama immensely; how could such a captivating show be without an audience?

So, she kindly opened the door to the ward.

Then, out of kindness, he deliberately coughed to attract attention.

Just then, the brigade members came to the commune to buy things, and the brigade leader asked them to come and take a look, since Lu Yunqi was injured on the mountain in their brigade, and Mu Zhiqing was still a member of the brigade's educated youth.

Among those who arrived were people from the educated youth dormitory. When they saw Mu Hehe kneeling and kowtowing, they all stared wide-eyed, not understanding what was going on.

So, Yu Yao kindly helped explain: "Mu Zhiqing felt that she was the one who caused Lu Yunqi to fall into a coma, and insisted on kneeling down and kowtowing to apologize, saying that if she didn't do it, she wouldn't be able to live with herself and might not want to live anymore."

"As you all know, we elders also hope for the best for the younger generation. Naturally, we cannot let Mu Zhiqing go down a dead end. We had no choice but to agree to Mu Zhiqing's idea."

After saying that, Yu Yao kindly asked Mu Hehe, "Niece-in-law, tell everyone, is this true?"

Mu Hehe forced a smile: "Yes, that's definitely true."

In order to maintain her image as someone liked by the Lu family, she had to act convincingly.

I have a lot of grievances to share, but I can't express them.

Although the educated youth found it strange, seeing how much Mu Hehe was enjoying herself, they could only respect and offer their blessings.

"Then, Mu Zhiqing, you can continue kneeling. We'll go back now."

Mu Hehe looked at the endless stream of people peeking in from outside, her face turning pale and then red.

His fingernails dug fiercely into his palm.

Yu Yao, you're ruthless.

The impact of the fall left Mu Hehe dizzy. As if by some stroke of luck, just as she was bruised and red from the fall, Lu Yunqi's fingers twitched.

Su Ya had been keeping an eye on Lu Yunqi. She was the first to see him and rushed to his bedside, calling his name.

Lu Yunqi wasn't fully awake yet, but the fact that he was reacting meant he would be soon.

Suya was also very happy.

The fortune teller was right after all; her son had indeed attracted something unclean, and once that unclean thing left, her son would wake up.

Mu Hehe was also very happy, finally she didn't have to keep kneeling and kowtowing.

She was looking forward to seizing this opportunity to establish herself as Lu Yunqi's benefactor.

Then she heard Su Ya say to her with a cold face, "Haven't you harmed Yun Qi enough, you culprit? What are you standing there for? Keep kowtowing."

"Huh?" Mu Hehe was dumbfounded.

She didn't expect that Lu Yunqi would wake up, which only confirmed that she was the one who caused all of this.

Yu Yao burst out laughing.

Knowing that this was a hospital room and there were other people around, Yu Yao suppressed her laughter, but the constant shrugging of her shoulders as she turned away betrayed her secret.

Lu Ze shifted his feet slightly to cover for Yu Yao.

Fortunately, Lu Yunqi woke up soon after, and Su Ya quickly went to call the doctor.

Mu Hehe rushed to the bedside, "Yunqi, how are you feeling? Is anything bothering you? Does your head still hurt...?"

Lu Yunqi's head was buzzing, and hearing Mu Hehe's machine-gun-like questions only made his head ache more.

He snapped, "Mu Hehe, shut up!"

He held his head, feeling disoriented and unsure of where he was. His gaze first fell on Mu Hehe, and he frowned.

What is she doing here?

Lu Yunqi looked around, and when he saw Yu Yao's familiar face, he was startled. He pushed Mu Hehe away and pretended to be calm as he questioned her.

"Yu Yao, are you blind? I'm thirsty, quickly get me a glass of water."

"And what are you doing? Didn't you see your uncle standing? Hurry up and invite him to sit down, and brew some of my secret Da Hong Pao tea for him."

Lu Yunqi turned to look at Lu Ze: "Uncle, don't mind her. This woman is all talk and no action. She has no sense of propriety and won't listen unless you discipline her."

This bossy attitude, full of contempt and disdain, not only stunned the people in the ward, but also left Su Ya and the doctor who came to examine her completely bewildered.
