Chapter 223: Using Family Ties to Morally Blackmail Her



Zhao Sichun's tears flowed faster, and a hateful face suddenly appeared in her mind.

Immediately, the hatred in his eyes burned to its highest point.

Xia Zhichu!

Yes, it’s all because of Xia Zhichu’s existence that Brother Mo Chen did this!

Thinking of this, Zhao Sichun clenched her fists tightly, her eyes widening as she cursed through gritted teeth, "Xia Zhichu, this is all your fault. If it weren't for you, Brother Mo Chen would have been engaged to me, and I would now be the legitimate granddaughter-in-law of the Si family."

"You ruined me, you..."

"Since you won't let me live a good life, I will drag you down into the ditch and let you rot and stink together!"

Compared to Zhao Sichun's fate, Shen Liang was equally restless.

After learning that Xia Zhichu's husband was the richest man in Jincheng that day, coupled with the scandals surrounding Si Mochen and Zhao Sichun's engagement party, the Zhao family fell into crisis again. This made Shen Liang think of the fate of Mr. Wu and himself, and he became more and more uneasy.

This Si Mochen is a ruthless character.

Not only that, his power is so astonishing that he can turn the tide in Jincheng and control the survival of a family at will.

It's so scary!

Logically speaking, after Shen Liang learned the truth, he should not have provoked Xia Zhichu again, but thinking of the two times he had been hospitalized and Xia Zhichu's proud and glorious look, he still felt uncomfortable.

So, Shen Liang found Xia Ganggang again, ready to use this gambler to deal with Xia Zhichu.

However, when I contacted Xia Ganggang again, I was surprised to learn that he had been beaten half to death and was lying unconscious in the hospital.

Because someone found the seriously injured Xia Ganggang on the roadside, they called the emergency number and sent him to the hospital. The medical staff could not contact his family, so they kept him in the hospital.

As a result, when Shen Liang called, the doctor suggested that he come to see the patient.

Shen Liang had no idea what was going on. When he was asked about his relationship with the patient on the phone, he directly called him father-in-law. So when he arrived at the hospital, the nurse immediately scolded him.

"The injured patient has been hospitalized for several days. What's wrong with you as the family members? Why didn't you call to inquire about the patient's condition before he returned home?"

After saying that, the doctor handed a large bill to Shen Liang and said bluntly, "Go and complete the hospitalization procedures for the patient and settle all the expenses at the same time."

Shen Liang thought about it and realized that Xia Gang could still be of use to him, and helping him order was also for future plans, so he paid without thinking.

When the other party told him the cost, Shen Liang was completely dumbfounded. He just stared with wide eyes and screamed, "What did you say, three hundred thousand?"

The billing clerk looked at him with disdain, then explained the patient's condition. "When the patient was brought in, his injuries were extremely serious. Not only was his liver damaged, but he also had several broken ribs. It's a blessing in disguise that he was able to survive."

"As for the later expenses, it will cost another 100,000 or 200,000 yuan. You should pay the initial expenses first, and then raise the funds for the subsequent treatment as soon as possible."

When Shen Liang heard that the total cost was 500,000, he was paralyzed and stood there in a daze.

The family members behind him impatiently urged him to hurry up, and Shen Liang finally said to the settlement staff, "I will let his daughter pay this money, please take your time."

After saying that, he immediately ran away without a trace.

If he had known that he was being asked to be a scapegoat, he would never have set foot in the hospital.

Five hundred thousand?

He is about to get married, where can he come up with another 500,000 yuan?

Besides, this is Xia Zhichu’s father, what does his life or death have to do with him?

It’s just a pity that in the future, when I want to deal with Xia Zhichu, I’m afraid there will be one less person to use.

Shen Liang was somewhat unwilling to give up. What should he do if he just wandered around the hospital entrance?

Finally, he decided to call Xia Zhichu and ask her to clean up the mess. Anyway, he would not let Xia Zhichu have an easy time. Even if she had a new life, she could never get rid of her gambling father Xia Zhichu.

Thinking of this, Shen Liang called Xia Zhichu directly on his cell phone. At this time, Xia Zhichu was drinking the chicken soup sent by Chu Tiantian. When he saw the call from Shen Liang, he frowned deeply.

"Why did he call?" Chu Tiantian also glanced at the screen, raised her eyebrows and said coldly.

Xia Zhichu had no idea what to do, and of course didn't want to answer the call, so he just hung up.

A moment later, a text message popped up.

'Your father is seriously injured and is in XXX Hospital.'

Xia Zhichu took a glance and his expression turned a little ugly.

After leaving the Xia family, Xia Zhichu decided not to have anything to do with that family anymore. Moreover, what Xia Gang had done to her a few days ago made her even more heartbroken.

Logically, she shouldn't care, but when she saw the message from Shen Liang, she was still moved.

"That scumbag dad of yours is either drinking or gambling all day long. He probably owed gambling debts and couldn't pay them back, so he got beaten by his creditors." Chu Tiantian said coldly. Thinking of Xia's insult to Xia Zhichu just now, she just wished that the beast would die soon.

Xia Zhichu didn't think so. Xia's appearance this time was extremely strange. Logically speaking, since he liked gambling, he would just hang out in the gambling houses in the town and would not come to the city center.

As a result, he not only knew that she had participated in the quarterly show, but also came over to insult her. This made Xia Zhichu wonder if someone had secretly lured Xia Zhichu here.

But who could it be?

Xia Zhichu couldn't figure it out before, but after Shen Liang called, she began to have some doubts.

Perhaps all this was Shen Liang's doing in secret!

Thinking of this, Xia Zhichu's eyes became even colder. He clenched his fists and called Shen Liang back directly.

"Xia Ganggang...why did you appear in the city center?"

Shen Liang was feeling a bit irritated as he couldn't get a reply from Xia Zhichu. Suddenly the phone rang, which made him feel somewhat proud. He was about to tell her about Xia's injury that had just happened and made her nervous, but he heard Xia Zhichu's questioning, which made Shen Liang feel a bit guilty.

"How should I know if his legs are on him?"

hehe……

Xia Zhichu sneered, his eyes tinged with a cold light, "Stop pretending, you were the one who brought him here."

When Shen Liang heard this, he became a little angry and said, "Xia Zhichu, don't talk nonsense. What does it have to do with me if your father came here on his own?"

Seeing that he was still quibbling, Xia Zhichu refused to give in and went straight to the point, "That's just a coincidence. It's none of your business. How do you know so much about his whereabouts and that he was injured and hospitalized?"

All the signs have already said it all, this is all Shen Liang's conspiracy.

I didn't expect this man to be so cruel. Even after the divorce, he still tried every means to deal with her. It was obvious that he didn't want her to have an easy life.

Whenever Xia Zhichu thought about her being insulted in public, while Shen Liang was standing behind her watching her laugh, she couldn't control her anger and yelled at Shen Liang, "I'm telling you, Shen Liang, I have nothing to do with you anymore. Besides, there's no conflict of interest between us. After the divorce, we can all live a new life. I hope you won't bother me anymore, and don't use our family relationship to blackmail me."
