"Yes, Mrs. Ou." Assistant Jin glared at Han Yue, thinking, "That fool is courting death. Knowing Mrs. Ou's temper, she still insists on walking into the line of fire." Assistant Jin immediately waved his hand, and two bodyguards in black came in and grabbed Han Yue from both sides.
"Mrs. Ou, you can punish me however you want, please let Luo Xiaoyi see Young Master Ou, please!" Han Yue, supported by two bodyguards, still pleaded for Luo Xiaoyi relentlessly.
"They've all rebelled! Take them away!" Madam Ou's eyes widened as she roared. That damned woman Luo Xiaoyi, how long has she been here, and she's already made Han Yue, such a loyal confidante, disloyal to her. It's infuriating!
That damned Luo Xiaoyi! I never imagined that someone as weak and frail as you could be so popular? Trying to steal the person I'm training? I will never let you succeed!
No matter how much Ren Hanyue pleaded for Luo Xiaoyi, it was to no avail. She was dragged away by the bodyguards and locked in a dark secret room.
In the courtyard.
After a day and a night of agonizing torment, Luo Xiaoyi finally got through the unbearable day.
A relieved smile tugged at the corners of her pale lips. A day had finally passed, and she was one step closer to her goal.
The next day at noon, the sun was shining brightly.
Luo Xiaoyi was almost scorched by the blazing sun. Sweat dripped incessantly from her pale face, sliding down her sexy, slightly upturned chin. Her back was soaked with sweat, and her hospital gown clung tightly to her spine. Her frail body swayed unsteadily, almost falling over. She tried her best to keep herself upright and not fall.
At that moment, she was so hungry and thirsty...
Her lips were so dry they were peeling, and she desperately wanted a drink of water. Her throat felt like it was on fire. She tried hard to swallow some saliva to quench her thirst, but to her dismay, she found that she had no saliva left.

She clenched her fists at her sides, her weary eyes shining with unwavering determination. She cheered herself up: "Luo Xiaoyi, keep going! Just two more days and it'll be over. Zihan is so pitiful, she doesn't even have the most basic human awareness. What's a little suffering for her?"
Mo Nan had just returned from his business trip and was on his way to visit President Ou when he entered the medical school courtyard and saw this pitiful scene. He looked at Luo Xiaoyi, who was so weak that she could hardly stand it, yet she was still kneeling there resolutely. Sigh, needless to say, this must be another of Mrs. Ou's bad ideas.
Mo Nan opened a parasol to shield Luo Xiaoyi from the scorching sun and held a bottle of mineral water to Luo Xiaoyi's lips.
“Miss Luo, have some water. Do you really believe you can see President Ou like this? You don’t understand Mrs. Ou at all. If she doesn’t agree to something, no matter what methods the other party uses, even if they go to great lengths, she still won’t agree. So, even if you persist to the end, it will still be in vain. You should get up quickly, and we’ll think of another way.”
Mo Nan looked at her and said earnestly, "I grew up in the Ou family and I know the likes and dislikes of each master of the Ou family like the back of my hand. I can guess them pretty accurately. Luo Xiaoyi is definitely doing useless work."
"I won't drink it. I promised her I would go three days without eating or drinking, and she already said she would consider it. I will fight for it as long as there is a glimmer of hope." Luo Xiaoyi pushed away the water that was about to reach her lips, her attitude was very firm.
"What are you doing? Luo Xiaoyi, is this your sincerity? You're acting like a princess, having someone hold an umbrella for you? If you want to give up the opportunity, you can leave now. You don't need to put on an act here!"
Assistant Jin pointed at her and said sternly, “She looks like a cunning and vicious old woman. Otherwise, how could she serve a master like Madam Ou? Sometimes, she is even more ruthless than her master. She is Madam Ou’s best henchman.”
"Mo Nan, thank you for your concern. You should go now, don't let me lose everything. I'm fine."
Luo Xiaoyi frowned as she spoke. To be honest, the sudden appearance of Assistant Jin startled her. Luckily, she hadn't drunk the water that was near her mouth. If she had, all her efforts would have been in vain.
That Mrs. Ou is really something, sending people to monitor her all the time. Sigh, Mrs. Ou is indeed as formidable as her reputation suggests, not easy to deal with.
"..." Mo Nan was speechless and turned to leave. When he was almost at the ward, he ran into Butler Zhao. Butler Zhao quietly told him some news that was like a thunderbolt to him: Han Yue had actually been locked up by Madam Ou!
He knocked on the ward door and, after receiving permission from Mrs. Ou, went in. Mrs. Ou was sitting at the table looking at documents, working while keeping her son company, managing both tasks equally well.
"Mo Nan, I asked you to arrange a meeting with Governor Tan of the Central Bank. Did you manage to do it?" Madam Ou frowned deeply. Han'er had collapsed and become a vegetable. The news of her serious condition spread like wildfire and could not be contained. It affected the stock market of the Ou Group, causing the stock price to fall. She was now temporarily acting as president and had to quickly find funds to save the market.
"We've made an appointment. He's already agreed to release the loan. He'll ask you to go to the bank to sign the contract at 2 PM today," Mo Nan replied respectfully.
"Good, in such a crisis, you were able to persuade President Tan, which is indeed a great achievement. Your annual salary will be doubled, and your bonus will be doubled." Mrs. Ou looked at him with admiration, but there was an unavoidable anxiety hidden in her eyes. What if her son didn't wake up for a long time, or...
She dared not think any further; no, her son would surely wake up.
“Thank you, Mrs. Ou, but I don’t want the money.” Mo Nan looked at her, her attitude clear and firm.
"Why? What do you want?" Mrs. Ou looked at him, somewhat displeased. She had always been like this; she would give whatever she wanted, and others could only accept it with gratitude. There was no room for bargaining.
Mo Nan grew up in the Ou family, how could she not understand her way of doing things? How dare she?
“Mrs. Ou, I know I am of lowly status and have no right to bargain. Your reward is a sign of your high regard for me, but what I need most right now is not money. I beg you to release Han Yue, okay? I know Han Yue was punished because she pleaded for Luo Xiaoyi. Can you grant Luo Xiaoyi's request? Let her see Young Master Ou, okay? Perhaps she really has a way…”
Mo Nan's pleading tone was the first time he dared to defy Madam Ou and beg her so earnestly. Upon hearing that Han Yue was to suffer such confinement, his heart ached as if it were being stabbed with needles. Although he knew that Madam Ou was particularly cold-hearted, he had no other choice but to plead.
There's also Luo Xiaoyi, the woman President Ou has his eye on. Luo Xiaoyi is a good person, and he doesn't want to see her suffer like this.
So he dared to challenge this female demon.
Madam Ou slammed her hand on the table. "What? You're all going against me because of that woman Luo Xiaoyi? Huh? Am I your master, or is Luo Xiaoyi your master? Huh?"
