Everyone eagerly awaited a miracle.
They watched, tense, at Chi Pangpang’s small face, which grew paler. Suddenly, Chi Pangpang spat out a large mouthful of black blood.
“Ah…” Chi Pangpang’s mother nearly fainted upon seeing this.
“Sister-in-law, I told you not to trust this little girl’s words. Do you see now? Kaiyou is dying.” Chi Pangpang’s aunt glared at Jiang Siyun.
Jiang Siyun knelt on the ground, offering no explanation. She knew the medicine was fine and could save lives.
“Pfft…” Chi Pangpang spat out another mouthful of blood, and then his body completely stilled.
This time, Chi Pangpang’s mother was utterly terrified.
Chi Pangpang’s aunt’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. He was dead!
However, she had to put on a show. This little girl deserved a beating. She raised her hand and slapped Jiang Siyun across the face.
“Slap…” The heavy blow sent Jiang Siyun’s small figure tumbling to the ground.
“You brat, you killed my nephew! You’ll pay with your own worthless life!”
Jiang Siyun’s ears buzzed. She didn’t make a sound, only gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and trembled with suppressed anger.
So, trying to save someone out of kindness meant taking a beating. This was what her mother had told her: even if you treat others well, they might not truly understand your sincerity.
Her mother had said human nature was complex, and all one needed was a clear conscience.
She had a clear conscience, so she shouldn’t be sad.
Jiang Siyun repeatedly comforted herself in her heart.
“Yunyun.” Seeing Jiang Siyun being hit, Xiao Muyang rushed forward several steps and held her small form.
He glared at Chi Pangpang’s aunt, his voice sharp, “Are you looking for death?”
With a swift move, he struck the aunt’s hand.
“Ah…” Chi Pangpang’s aunt let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Her hand was brutally broken by Xiao Zeyan’s strike.
“Didn’t you see your nephew spitting blood? Yunyun’s mother is a divine doctor. You might not be able to buy this pill even with ten million yuan. How dare you hit her? You’re asking for death!”
Xiao Zeyan’s eyes were red with anger. The girl he cherished was actually hit by her.
“I… I acted on impulse. How could you break my hand?” Chi Pangpang’s aunt’s face turned pale and weak. She cried incoherently, swaying unsteadily. What a terrifying young man.
Intense pain and fear filled her heart. She had only intended to teach this meddling brat a lesson, never expecting her hand to be broken.
The young man before her had blood-red eyes, making him particularly terrifying!
Xiao Zeyan curled his lips coldly and sneered, “I was also acting on impulse just now.”
Chi Pangpang’s aunt was too enraged to speak.
“Mama… Mama…” Suddenly, the still Chi Pangpang weakly called for his mother.
When Chi’s mother saw her son wake up, despair in her eyes was replaced by overwhelming joy.
“Kaiyou, Mama is here. How do you feel? Does anything hurt?” Chi’s mother hugged her son tightly, tears of happiness streaming down her face!
“Mama, what happened to me?” Chi Pangpang frowned, the bloody taste in his mouth making him feel unwell.
“It’s alright, my darling, you’re fine now.” Chi’s mother was immensely relieved. She looked at Jiang Siyun’s swollen cheek with an apologetic expression.
“Little girl, I’m so sorry, truly sorry. Thank you for saving my Kaiyou.”
Seeing Chi Pangpang alive, Jiang Siyun also breathed a sigh of relief. She looked coldly at Chi’s mother, “He saved my life, and I returned it. You don’t need to thank me!”
Chi’s mother was slightly stunned by Jiang Siyun’s cold expression. Her sister-in-law’s slap had clearly chilled the girl’s heart.
Her sister-in-law had always had ill intentions. How could she bring herself to harm such a cute little girl? She had overplayed her hand and deserved to have her palm broken.
“Yunyun, Yunyun.” Lu Jinyue, having received the news, rushed over.
Seeing Yunyun in Xiao Zeyan’s arms, her left cheek swollen and her eyes red and pitiful, he stomped his foot in anger and couldn’t help but curse, “Who the hell hit her? Step forward!”
His enraged voice startled those around them.
Chi Pangpang’s aunt trembled when she saw Lu Jinyue. She lowered her head, not daring to make a sound. She had thought this little girl was a pushover and never dreamed she was brought by Lu Jinyue.
Jiang Siyun smiled at her furious uncle, “Uncle, I’m alright now.” Xiao Zeyan had already avenged her. It felt truly wonderful to have someone protecting her!
Lu Jinyue looked at her red and swollen face, his heart aching. “Silly girl, you call this alright? If your father saw you like this, the person who hit you wouldn’t live to see tomorrow.”
Chi Pangpang’s aunt was startled again. Whom had she angered?
Lu Jinyue squatted down and gently caressed her swollen cheek. “Our little princess must be in so much pain!”
After speaking, Lu Jinyue snatched Jiang Siyun from Xiao Zeyan’s embrace, giving Xiao Zeyan a warning look.
Xiao Zeyan’s gaze flickered, and he said nothing.
“Mr. Lu, this… this…” General Manager Yang, who had rushed over, was also shocked by the scene!
How could someone be poisoned here?
Xiao Zeyan looked at General Manager Yang and said, “Uncle Yang, you should contact the police. That person gave the poisoned juice to Yang Qingyue, and Chi Pangpang drank it all in one gulp, nearly dying.”
“Ah…” General Manager Yang’s face turned even more grim.
Looking at his own daughter, he gritted his teeth in anger, “Yang Qingyue, do you have any brains? How dare you eat something given by a stranger?”
Yang Qingyue also felt wronged. She looked at her father and said pitifully, “Xiao Zeyan only plays with this little girl and not with me. That uncle said this little girl doesn’t like that flavor of juice, so he asked me to give it to her. If she drank it, I would have taken revenge on her.”
Upon hearing this, General Manager Yang felt conflicted. “You still gave it to this young lady if she didn’t like it?”
Yang Qingyue said in a low voice, “I approached her under the guise of making friends, and she drank it. Moreover, she had already reached out to take it, but Chi Pangpang was quicker. It’s Chi Pangpang’s own bad luck, can I be blamed?”
“Yang Qingyue.” General Manager Yang was furious. How could this child be like this?
“Wuwuwu…” Yang Qingyue immediately burst into tears. Seeing everyone’s accusatory gazes, she couldn’t help but shout, “Blame me, blame me, all of you! I didn’t do it on purpose, why are you all blaming me?”
After shouting her sadness out loud, Yang Qingyue ran away crying.
General Manager Yang could only order someone to chase after his daughter.
As the ambulance arrived, everyone helped lift Chi Pangpang onto the ambulance.
The banquet concluded at this point!
Lu Jinyue found ice to apply to Jiang Siyun’s face.
Jiang Siyun’s skin was tender and fair. The slap had been heavy, and her little face looked severely red and swollen, making one’s heart ache.
Lu Jinyue looked at Xiao Zeyan, who was by Jiang Siyun’s side, and frowned slightly. This boy was even more ruthless, directly breaking someone’s palm.
“Well done!” Lu Jinyue praised Xiao Zeyan.
Xiao Zeyan was taken aback. Didn’t this uncle seem quite displeased with him earlier?
Lu Jinyue smiled and said, “Kid, if anyone bullies our Yunyun in the future, hit them back, hit them hard.”
Xiao Zeyan: “……”
He nodded slightly, a faint smile on his face. “I will, Uncle. I promise, from now on, wherever I am, I will never let Yunyun be bullied.”
Yunyun’s eyes brightened. She looked at Xiao Zeyan and smiled brilliantly.
Xiao Zeyan also looked at her, his dark eyes filled with pampering.
“Kid, thank you tonight. I’ll take Yunyun home now.” Lu Jinyue picked up Yunyun, feeling as if this boy was all about love.
