Xie Li was about to get out of the car when he thought for a moment. He pried Ding Huizhu's hands open, and then, to Wan Sao's disbelief, took out the syringe, crushed the protective cap, and injected it directly into Ding Huizhu.
Xie Li: "Don't look at me like that. She wanted to give it to me, right? The smell is so strong. Does she think everyone else is stupid?"
Aunt Wan blushed and weakly protested, "Madam didn't..."
But even she herself didn't believe what she said.
Ding Huizhu specifically sought out Xie Ziyuan to prepare the injection in order to prevent Xie Li from experiencing any uncontrollable situations.
Unexpectedly, the needle didn't prick Xie Li; instead, she used it on herself first.
Xie Li: "Take her home. She will be unconscious for at least 20 hours before she wakes up. Don't try to wake her up before then; you can't."
After saying that, she got out of the car and left.
The driver and bodyguard exchanged bewildered glances. "What do we do now?"
Aunt Wan said irritably, "What can we do? Didn't you hear what she said? Of course, we have to send Madam home!"
The medicinal herbs Xie Ziyuan prepared, and Ding Huizhu specifically requested a heavy dose, were so potent that even if someone were to be chopped up, they wouldn't wake up. What could they do?
They couldn't beat her even if they fought her; this little village girl was completely out of their league.
However, Xie Li's audacity in attacking and drugging Ding Huizhu has seriously crossed the Xie family's bottom line.
Once Ding Huizhu wakes up, this matter will definitely not end well.
She wanted to see how Xie Li would face Ding Huizhu's fury.

Xie Li turned around and saw Luo Zhihan standing not far away.
Xie Li guessed that he must know what she had done in the car, and after thinking for a moment, she explained, "She's just so annoying."
Disrespecting elders is indeed a morally reprehensible act, but Xie Li felt no guilt whatsoever towards Ding Huizhu.
Luo Zhihan reached out and ruffled her hair. "Yes, you did the right thing."
He rushed over to help, but who knew that Xie Li would simply knock Ding Huizhu unconscious.
"Here you go, your transfer application form. The principal didn't sign it, so he asked me to give it to you." Luo Zhihan handed over a piece of paper. Xie Li glanced at it, tore it up, and threw it in the trash can.
"Want to stay at my place tonight?" Luo Zhihan suddenly asked.
Xie Li had knocked Ding Huizhu unconscious, and by this time the servants had probably already filed all the necessary complaints.
If Xie Li returns to the Xie family villa, he will likely face constant trouble.
Xie Li hesitated for a moment, but before he could answer, his phone rang. Sure enough, the other end immediately reported it to Old Master Xie.
After Xie Li answered the call, she was still hesitating about how to explain when Grandpa Xie said, "Li Li, it's alright. Come stay at the Xishan Sanatorium tonight, and I'll send someone to pick you up."
The old man had obviously just received the news, and his first reaction was to worry about Xie Li's safety and to quickly protect him under his wing.
Xie Li's expression softened, and he softly hummed in agreement, "Thank you, Grandpa."
She had considered that if even Old Master Xie condemned her actions, she might as well leave the Xie family.
Anyway, she has money, so she can stay in hotels or buy houses.
She lived a good life on her own for the past ten years or so. Now that she's moved to the city and has such good conditions, she'll only get better and better.
The shallow mother-daughter bond between Ding Huizhu and her daughter is actually almost gone.
The causal link is so faint that it's no longer enough to bind her. Taking a gamble, even at the risk of injury, might just sever it.
The only problem is that guardianship is still with the Xie family, and we need to find a way to get it out.
She couldn't ignore Grandpa Xie's concern, so she agreed without hesitation.
