Before, she could go to Brother Hu because he was different. But now, these young punks actually dared to lay a finger on her, that was absolutely unacceptable.
So, she glared at them and said sharply, "What do you think you’re doing? Do you want to be thrown in jail? I’m telling you, if you dare touch me, I’ll go report you."
"Sister Li, do you really think we’ll believe you? Back when you wanted us to ruin that good friend of yours, you didn’t say it . You said that a woman afraid of losing face wouldn’t dare to report it."
Hearing this, Cheng Li was furious. Indeed, Monkey and the others had been worried that Jiang Xue would report them and they’d go to jail, so they especially brought up this issue.
But she had assured them confidently that it wouldn’t happen, saying that a woman’s greatest fear was this matter. If she reported it, her reputation would be ruined.
Yet now, they were using this to shut her up. At this moment, Cheng Li regretted it a bit. She regretted trusting these people too easily.
But, thinking that she had given them money before, she wasn’t willing to give up and said, "Don’t you want the rest of the money?"
"Of course we want it. But what does that have to do with whether we serve you or not?"
"Alright, Dog, stop wasting words with her. We’d better hurry up and do the job, otherwise, if someone comes, it’ll be bad."
"Yes, yes, we should get down to business quickly."
With that, they started pulling at Cheng Li’s clothes. By this point, Cheng Li was truly scared. She regretted it immensely, wishing she could kill these people right there. Of course, her biggest hatred was toward Jiang Xue. If it weren’t for Jiang Xue, she wouldn’t have turned to these people, and now she wouldn’t be suffering these consequences.
Monkey might have been the boss among them, but he didn’t join in. Instead, he went to stand guard at the door.
Seeing Monkey leave, the brothers didn’t care; one less person meant they could have fun for a bit longer. So, they quickened their pace, wishing they could strip Cheng Li bare to get on with it. Googlᴇ search noᴠelfire.net
Cheng Li, however, refused to just give in and struggled. But she was just a woman, how could she match a few young men? In no time, they had stripped her clothes completely.
When the first person pressed down on her, Cheng Li was in despair, tears of regret streaming down her face.
While Cheng Li was being assaulted by the thugs, Jiang Xue had already returned home and was affectionately hugging Little Reunion.
Having not seen Little Reunion for a few days, she missed him terribly. So the first thing she did upon arriving home was to hold and kiss him.
Little Reunion had not seen Jiang Xue for days either, and was naturally delighted, letting her kiss his cheeks and laughing.
Bai Yuhua, seeing the mother and child , also started to laugh, then asked about Father Jiang’s condition.
"Xue’er, how’s your dad doing? Was his surgery successful?"
"Mom, don’t worry. My dad’s surgery went smoothly. Next, it’s just about recovery. However, he’s quite weakened this time and will need some time to recuperate.
"I see, when your dad gets back, you should visit them more and help your mom out."
Jiang Xue smiled but said nothing. She had already made up her mind to move to the city, so Father Jiang probably wouldn’t be coming back anymore.
However, she didn’t plan to tell Bai Yuhua now and was thinking of waiting until her father-in-law returned to discuss it together.
At noon, Mu Siwu came back, and upon seeing Jiang Xue, he also first asked about Father Jiang’s condition.
