âForget it, let her fend for herself.â Yun Shujing no longer expected Huo Zizhen to forgive her. Her priority was to protect her two sons, especially Huo Shengyuan. She could not let anyone or anything affect Huo Shengyuanâs right to inherit the Huo Family.
Huo Zizhen was about to speak when the butler rushed in from the door. It seemed that the Lei family had indeed arrived very quickly.
Back then, Huo Zizhen had caused the Lei familyâs daughter to be in an extremely miserable state. Until now, she was still in a mental hospital in a delirious state. All these years, the Lei couple had not given birth to anything else and had doted on this daughter of theirs with all their might. Now that Yun Shujing was willing to let the Lei family settle the score, it was no different from pushing Huo Zizhen onto the stage.
âSo the Lei family is only ten kilometers away from the Huo Family. Being close has its advantages, right?â
However, no matter what Yun Shujing said now, it could not agitate Huo
Zizhen. Because Huo Zizhen had long lost all expectations for such a person. Without expectations, there would be no disappointment, and one could hate without any scruples.
A few minutes later, Huo Qingxiao came out of the study. At this moment, the butler brought the Lei couple into the Huo Familyâs living room. The husband and wife were not tall, especially under the coat, they looked even shorter and burly. However, Father Lei was very imposing. He looked at Huo Zizhen with a burning gaze, hiding thousands of knives dipped in poison and refined into fire.
âMrs. Huo contacted my wife and said that Huo Zizhen would be handed over to us to deal with. Is that true?â After Father Lei entered, he pointed at Huo Zizhen and asked Huo Qingxiao, âCan I take her away?â
âYou canât take her away, but you can settle your grudges here.â Huo Qingxiao said bluntly.
âWhat will you allow me to do in your Huo Familyâs territory?â Father Lei said mockingly, âI thought that you were sincere in wanting to end this matter. I didnât expect that you were just playing with me, right?â
âI agree to let you take Huo Zizhen away.â At this moment, Yun Shujing stood up from the sofa and said, âI gave birth to her. I have the right to make this decision.â
At this moment, Huo Zizhen was like an animal being pointed around.
âZizhen, arenât you going to apologize to Mom? Itâs already at this juncture!â Mu Qingya was anxious for Huo Zizhen.
âHmph!â Huo Zizhen scoffed coldly and asked Xing Guan, âDo you have a knife?â
Xing Guan handed the dagger he carried with him to Huo Zizhen.
âPush me forward.â
Xing Guan did as he was told.
When they were only a few steps away from the Lei couple, Huo Zizhen asked them, âWhat do you think I should compensate your daughter for? Back then, I was young and frivolous. I hurt people and did something wrong. I canât defend myself. What do you two want me to compensate you for? Is one leg enough?â
As she spoke, Huo Zizhen raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed it into the healthy thigh. Blood instantly splashed out, shocking everyone present.
However, at this moment, there was only pain and determination in Huo
Zizhenâs eyes. Her regret was serious. She just didnât have the roundabout way Huo Jiuxiao did. She didnât know how to make it up to the two of them. Then, the physical damage should be able to make up for their pain, right?
The Lei couple stood rooted to the ground in shock as they watched the blood flow down Huo Zizhenâs legs to the wheelchair and then drip onto the ground.
âIs it enough? If the disability isnât enough, then you can ask for what you want. My life? Sure, but not now. I still have something important to do. If you want this, Iâll come to you after Iâm done with my business.â
Huo Zizhenâs words were firm and made people feel heartfelt regret.
âIf I had to do it all over again, I wouldnât choose to hurt her or anyone else. Iâve let Miss Lei down.â
What Mrs. Lei wanted the most was for Huo Zizhen to apologize personally.
Now that she had it, half of the resentment in her heart had dissipated.
âIf you want me to go to jail, I can promise you that Iâll turn myself in at the police station after Iâve done what I should do.â
Seeing that Huo Zizhenâs face was getting paler and paler, Mrs. Lei pulled Mr. Lei and said, âThatâs enough. I can finally feel her attitude of admitting her mistake. Itâs enough that sheâs crippled. Rui âer has already recovered. Donât add to her burden.â
âIâm sorry.â
Father Lei did not expect Huo Zizhen to be so ruthless to her. That knife was sincere and did not carry any falsehood.
If Huo Qingxiao had wanted to protect her, he wouldnât have been able to do anything to Huo Zizhen today. However, Huo Zizhen had taken the initiative to bear the responsibility and crippled one of his legs. At this point, Huo Zizhen could not make up for anything.
âThen Iâll wait for you. Iâll wait for you to finish what you should do and for you to turn yourself in at the police station.â Father Lei wanted this result.
âI will!â Huo Zizhen replied firmly.
âIn that case, letâs write off our grudges.â
There was more and more blood, and Huo Zizhenâs body was getting weaker and weaker. After the Lei couple left, Huo Zizhen collapsed on the chair and looked at Yun Shujing, who was dumbfounded. She said, âIâm no longer the original Huo Zizhen. Iâd rather cripple my legs than kneel to you. At the same time, Iâll make your son pay back a hundred times over. Unless you stab me to death now, youâll have to pay me back in the future.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSend her to the hospital.â Huo Qingxiao saw that Huo Zizhen had finished speaking and immediately ordered the butler to prepare the car.
Throughout the entire process, Yun Shujing was shocked. When Huo Zizhen stabbed her with a knife, she felt sorry and regretful, but she was also upset. She was the one who provoked the Lei couple. Huo Zizhen didnât have to pay the price of losing her other leg, but because of her, her leg was about to be crippled. Now, she wasnât sure if she could keep it. Yun Shujing felt that she was the one who had gone crazy. She was under too much pressure, as if every step she took was wrong.
âShengyuan, did I do something wrong?â
âMom, Zizhen is no longer the Zizhen of the past. You donât have to blame yourself.â Huo Shengyuan put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her. âThere must be a wound between her and Weichen.â
This was also what Yun Shujing was afraid of, especially after she had made Huo Zizhen compromise. Since Huo Zizhen was already crippled, why not fulfill her brotherâs wish?
She had never asked Huo Zizhen why she should grant her wish.
Yun Shujing also treated Huo Zizhen as her property, especially just now. In front of the Lei couple, she completely ignored Huo Zizhenâs complete independence. She felt that she had the right to decide Huo Zizhenâs life and death because she felt that she had given Huo Zizhen life, so Huo Zizhen had to listen to her arrangements.
But the more she acted like this, the more Huo Zizhen resisted.
Only the two people who were listening to the drama upstairs knew how amazing Huo Zizhenâs method of survival was.
Although it was ruthless, Huo Zizhen needed a lot of courage to be able to stab her..
