41: Chapter 41: Puppet in Hand 41 -41: Puppet in Hand Rong Shaoze was a trouble that nobody dared to provoke. Nobody would intentionally antagonize him; everyone avoided him like the plague. She was too foolish, actually believing his words and making a transaction with him. From then on, she no longer had any choices to speak of. Because she was nothing but a puppet in Rong Shaoze’s hands, and if he became unhappy, a simple snip of the strings would destroy her. “Then tell me, what exactly do I have to do for you to let me go?” Would her surrender suffice? Twenty years in prison, she couldn’t handle that. Her child, during those twenty years, couldn’t be without a mother. And her own mother, she couldn’t be left uncared for either… Rong Shaoze was a bit surprised at her compromise, but more satisfied. He said with a faint smile, “Now, go to the hospital and apologize to Ruoxin’s parents. Behave and listen to me hereafter. If I’m satisfied, I will naturally let you go. Rest assured, I, Rong Shaoze, never treat those who are loyal to me unfairly.” He smiled as he pinched her cheek and slowly walked out of the study. Lin Xinlan stood there dumbfounded for a long time before she finally left for the hospital. The Du couple was staying in the same ward, which was next to Ruoxin’s. As she pushed open the door of the ward and stepped in, Mr. Du grabbed a cup and threw it at her. Lin Xinlan didn’t dodge, and the cup hit her on the shoulder, causing her so much pain she almost cried out. “You vile woman, what are you doing here, get out!” Mrs. Du cursed in agitation. “Are you here to see if we’re dead yet? Let me tell you, we won’t die, and we will never let you go. Just wait, I will make sure you live a life worse than death!” Lin Xinlan didn’t look at them. She lowered her eyes, bowed her head respectfully, and apologized, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have treated you that way today.” The couple was taken aback, not expecting her to come and apologize. Mrs. Du didn’t accept her gesture of goodwill at all and sneered, “Stop with your pretense! Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Weren’t you very fierce, very good at hitting people? Now come hit us, if you are so capable why don’t you come and beat us! Where did all your earlier arrogance go?!” “I’m sorry… I truly am sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you.” “Oh, don’t make yourself out to be so pitiful. Who are you apologizing for? Is it for Shaoze? Ha, let me tell you, no matter how well you play the act, he will never like you, he won’t give you a second glance! His heart only has my daughter, you are just a replacement for my daughter. Shaoze has already said, the moment my daughter wakes up, you will be nothing!” “I’m sorry.” Lin Xinlan could only repeat this phrase. “Get out!” Mr. Du couldn’t hold back his anger and cursed, “Such a vixen, just looking at you makes one angry.” “Husband, this woman is quite powerful. Not only did she hit our daughter, she managed to marry Shaoze, and now, after beating us, she faces no repercussions. I’m really curious, what sort of charm or spell did she use to seduce Shaoze. Hmph, but she shouldn’t be too proud. The doctor said Ruoxin has a thirty percent chance of waking up, and once Ruoxin wakes up, I want to see how long she can still be proud!” “I’m sorry, I think you don’t want to see me right now, so I will take my leave.” Without giving them a chance to speak, Lin Xinlan turned and left. She left quickly, and by the end, she was running wildly. She didn’t take the elevator but descended fifteen floors of stairs. Running out of the hospital, gasping for breath and walking in the night, she felt so alone. All of a sudden, she felt as if she was the only person in the world, with no one beside her. She felt so lonely and helpless, not knowing where to go from here. Returning to the villa, but it wasn’t her home.
