Chapter 160: Let's not pursue this further?



Not going to pursue the matter?

Upon hearing this, the woman's eyes lit up for a moment, but then she seemed to realize something and lowered her head again: "Miss Li, are you joking? I was just following the doctor's instructions to change Ms. Jiang's dressing today. What responsibility do I have?"

Li Ruo's face instantly darkened: "Even at this point, you're still covering for that person. Have you considered what he'll do to you if he finds out your identity has been exposed?"

Even though Li Ruo had already said so much, the woman still wouldn't say anything.

Seeing this, Li Ruo could no longer bear it and simply threatened, "Since that's the case, then I have no choice but to call the police and let them help me find the person behind this!"

As she spoke, she took out her phone to make a call.

The woman was startled and quickly stepped forward to grab her hand, pleading, "Don't hit me! Please don't call the police! If you do, I'm finished!"

Li Ruo didn't speak, but stared at her coldly.

Now the woman understood what she meant and immediately sighed, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ruo put her phone back in her pocket, pursed her lips, and said, "Tell me, who exactly instructed you to do this!"

Seeing that she couldn't escape, the woman had no choice but to tell the truth: "I don't know that person. A few days ago, he came to me and gave me a million yuan. He also helped me solve my son's schooling problem and asked me to help him drug Jiang Luochu. I've never seen so much money in my life. I was blinded by greed and agreed without thinking."

After saying that, she knelt down before Li Ruo, her face full of pleading: "Miss Li, that's how it is. I've told you everything I know. Please let me go. My son is still young. What will happen to him if the police arrest him..."

Hearing the woman's words, Li Ruo became even angrier. She grabbed the woman's collar and scolded, "Do you know that because of your momentary lapse of judgment, you almost killed my mother? That's a human life! If you really cared about your son, you shouldn't have done something that violated the law!"

Her expression was sharp; if she hadn't still retained some rationality, she probably wouldn't have been able to control herself and would have wanted to attack the woman.

Startled by her appearance, the woman trembled and pleaded, "Miss Li, I know I was wrong. I'll be your slave in my next life, just please don't call the police. If I go in, my son will be left without anyone to care for him. Please..."

Tears streamed down the woman's face, making her look extremely pitiful.

Li Ruo's eyes softened: "I can let you not call the police, but you have to make amends."

Seeing that she had finally relented, the woman's eyes lit up instantly, and she nodded without hesitation: "Okay, how can we make amends?"

Li Ruo's initial target was the person behind it all, so she immediately said, "Contact that person now and tell him that things are out of control and you need to meet with him to discuss things in detail."

Upon hearing this, the woman was slightly taken aback. The other party had contacted her suddenly, and the two had only ever transacted over the phone and had never met in person.

But the next second, she suddenly remembered that the person had given her a number before.

Thinking of this, she quickly took out her phone.

But when the call connected, a man's voice came from the other end: "What is it?"

The woman quickly nodded to Li Ruo, indicating that this was the person.

Li Ruo gave her a wink, and the woman took a deep breath and whispered, "Something...something has happened. Things are getting a bit out of control at Jiang Luo's place. We need to meet and discuss it in detail."

Hearing the woman's somewhat anxious voice, the man had no doubts.

He wasn't afraid at all, since he hadn't received the remaining 500,000 yuan yet, so he immediately agreed: "Wait for me in the small park next to the hospital, I'll be right there."

"good!"

...

Inside the small park, the woman sat on a bench, clearly feeling uneasy.

After all, Li Ruo and Jiang Ze were watching her closely from the shadows, and her current undercover identity made her feel very uncomfortable.

Noticing her unusual behavior, Li Ruo quickly coughed twice on purpose, then gestured to her, reminding her to think about her son.

Seeing her cold, hard expression, the woman bit her lip and clenched her fist tightly.

Li Ruo had promised her that as long as she cooperated to catch the person behind it, the matter of drugging her would be forgiven.

She has no way out now...

Soon, a man wearing a hat and mask cautiously approached her.

He first looked around warily before asking, "How is the situation?"

Upon seeing the man, the woman's expression tightened, and she instinctively stood up.

Seeing that she remained silent for a while, the man became a little impatient, frowned and said, "I'm asking you a question. How's the matter I asked you to handle?"

The woman became even more frightened by the harsh rebuke, blinking her eyes repeatedly.

"I, I..."

Perhaps because she was too nervous, she momentarily forgot all the instructions Li Ruo had given her.

She knew more than Li Ruo, and therefore knew that the person in front of her was definitely not the mastermind.

If we only arrest him, can we get ourselves out of trouble?

"Didn't you call me out? Why aren't you saying anything?"
