Lin Yue grabbed her hand and slowly tightened it.
Peng Jiahe's expression began to twist, and his fingers holding on to the suit gradually let go.
"If you say I committed a crime, you have to provide evidence first. If you don't have evidence, then I'll sue you for defamation."
Lin Yue threw her hand away, and Peng Jiahe staggered and almost fell to the ground. After stabilizing his body, he kept rubbing his wrist, which made his face look bitter in pain.
"Taking a step back, assuming I did it, shouldn't I do it? Lu Yuan turned Jiang Lai into a vegetative state. He hasn't woken up yet. He patted his butt and ran away, leaving my mother to take care of Jiang Lai. , I have lost weight visibly in the past few days. As a rich second generation with a family worth tens of billions, do I have to swallow my anger like ordinary people? Why do I earn so much money? Isn’t it just to live a more comfortable life? Are you angry about being a coward? Peng Jiahe, do you think everyone should be like you, your own father was killed by him, and you still want to accept a thief as your father? "
"Excuses, they are all excuses. You and Jiang Lai have severed the brother-sister relationship a long time ago. You are enemies and enemies."
"A fight within a family is an internal conflict. Now that outsiders are knocking on the door, it must be dealt with unanimously."
Peng Jiahe didn't believe what he said at all, even if it was very logical, he could understand his mood by comparing his feelings with his own.
"Jiang Haokun, you are vicious!"
"Am I evil? The idea of marrying my sister and inheriting the Jiang family's property is not evil? Is it not evil to prevent me from proposing to Gan Jing at the party I held without understanding the situation, and also sprinkle pepper powder on me to make me suffer from asthma? Isn't it evil? Isn't it that I can't be merciful to others, and being merciful to others means being vicious? Is it petty-minded? Is it that I have no sympathy? Everything has a cause and a result. As the saying goes, there is a cycle of nature and retribution. Everything today is what he asked for."
Lin Yue sneered: "Since you care about him so much and have a better attitude than your own father, it just so happens that you will pay for his medical expenses in the future. Originally, because he was against me, his personality became more and more surly and extreme. He knew clearly that Jiang Lai and I were not on good terms, but he still wanted to use her to retaliate against me. If he could do such a thing, do you think he would stay in the hospital bed for a year and a half? What will it become?”
Lu Yuan had given up on himself for so long, and his medical insurance had stopped long ago. If the nature of the incident was really a paid murder, the perpetrator must be a poor man who couldn't afford the money. It was impossible to expect the federal government to fully bear the medical expenses. The insurance money Peng Hai left for her was used to pay Lu Yuan's medical expenses. He would soon drag her to death and take care of a paralyzed patient...
The old lady can eat and walk, and she has to cook for her every day. She thinks it is troublesome for the old lady to forget things. If it were Lu Yuan who was unable to move...
She remained silent.
She was at a loss.
She was in a dilemma.
Lin Yue continued: "I will take you to go through the inheritance procedures now. The doctor is worried that no one will help pay the debt. You came at the right time."
Peng Jiahe stood there motionless.
"Let's go, why don't you go?" Lin Yue said: "What did you say when you came? Is it great to be rich? If you don't like rich people, then just spend all your money on Lu Yuan and continue to be poor. Raise him as your biological father without any regrets and be a good daughter who is affectionate and righteous."
"..."
"You don't want to, don't you?" Lin Yue said, "I have to meet a client here, and I will go back to China tomorrow afternoon. It's up to you whether to leave or not."
After saying this, he walked towards the elevator.
"Jiang Haokun, why do you do this to me?"
She also saw that Jiang Haokun deliberately brought her to see Lu Yuan and then asked her multiple choice questions.
When he was in the Sixth Academy, Lu Yuan returned to the United States alone in order to evade responsibility and reality without consulting her. Now she encountered the same problem. Should she stay in the United States to take care of Lu Yuan, a dragster, or should she evade cruelly and follow her husband? He returns home.
"It's very simple. First, Lu Yuan and I are enemies. What I want to see most is for him to have a bad life. Second, because you owe discipline, and I never do any psychological counseling like Xu Li. What I want most is One of the things I'm good at is ending fairy tales with reality, allowing willful and unruly women like you to recognize themselves. But..."
He paused briefly: "For someone's sake, don't say I didn't give you a way out. If you choose to return to China and work as a waiter under Feng Yufang for a full year, his position as the manager of the Western restaurant will be yours." ”
Pa da ~
Pa da ~
Snap...
The footsteps got farther and farther, and his back disappeared into the dark corridor.
Peng Jiahe looked at the ward door, then at the bright window at the other end of the corridor, and stood there like a wooden man for a long time.
…
The next afternoon, she got on the plane back to China, because Jiang Haokun was right. The reality was that she, who had not finished high school, could only work in the United States as a supermarket cashier or restaurant waiter, the most basic job, with no promotion channels. The little money she earned was only enough to eat and sleep, and Lu Yuan, a paralyzed patient, not only had to use money to maintain her life, but also took up a lot of her time. An 18-year-old girl wasted all her youth on him?
There is no filial son in front of a long-term illness, let alone her?
What if we return to China? She doesn’t need to worry about things here. The federal government can’t just watch him die. The farther away from Lu Yuan is, the less guilty she will feel. Moreover, the income of the manager of the Gray Whale Restaurant is very considerable, plus her father left it for her. With the insurance money, she can live the life she likes in the future.
The most important thing is that she comforted herself that she had every reason to do this, because Lu Yuan could do this to Jiang Lai, who committed suicide by jumping off a building for him, why couldn't she do this to Lu Yuan, who owed Peng Hai a lot? What's more, he left her alone and returned to the United States first. Being in such a situation cannot be called retribution. To a certain extent, it was self-inflicted.
Some time later, in the orthopedic ward at UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center.
Lu Yuan has been struggling with the ceiling for more than a month.
He thought Peng Jiahe would stay and visit him from time to time.
No.
She came once that day and then stopped coming.
Although she didn't know what Jiang Haokun told her, the result was obvious - Peng Jiahe imitated his attitude towards Jiang Lai and did the same thing.
If you think about it carefully, his situation is not much different from Jiang Lai's.
Bastard Jiang Haokun is trying to treat others in his own way again.
"ah……"
"ah……"
"I'm going to kill you, and I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost."
"ah……"
Huhu~
Huhu~
He screams like this every day, but what's the use? The nurse ignores him at all. He can't die, and he can't live happily. He might as well be unconscious like Jiang Lai, at least he doesn't have to suffer so much.
It would be nice if...he was the one who died in the car crash.
Da da da~
A sudden knock on the door brought him back from his thoughts. Lu Yuan opened his eyes and looked across. There was a woman standing at the door.
Not Peng Jiahe.
It’s Gan Jing!
"You...why are you here?" He thought he had seen it wrong. He blinked hard and found that it was not the case.
"Jiahe told me about you after he returned to China." She walked to Lu Yuan and sat down, looking at him with a sad face: "How could this happen?"
"That bastard Jiang Haokun did it."
"Do you have evidence?"
"Who else could be there besides him? I never thought that he could do such a thing."
"..."
Gan Jing sighed heavily and thought to himself, if you don't love Jiang Lai, wouldn't you be able to use her to take revenge on Jiang Haokun? He even tried to get revenge on Jiang Haokun by tying Xu Lan to his paralyzed daughter and being sad all day long. It was also despicable. Who is better than the other?
She didn't know why things turned out like this. In short, the two of them took revenge over and over again, and nothing would ever be the same again.
"Lu Yuan, why did we...become like this?"
"Why is it like this? Gan Jing, do you understand Jiang Haokun's true face now? He is using you to take revenge on me, and the person he really likes is Xu Li."
"..." Gan Jing said nothing and lowered his head sadly.
Lu Yuan felt better because her performance proved that she had realized Jiang Haokun's evil, although it was already too late.
"Come back to your country with me."
"What did you say?"
"I said..." Gan Jing raised his head and looked directly into his eyes: "Come back to China with me."
"..." Lu Yuan said nothing.
"You have no relatives or friends here, I will be worried about you."
"..." Lu Yuan still didn't speak because he was very entangled. Just like the 2008 financial crisis, he went bankrupt because of his extravagant spending. In order not to implicate Gan Jing, he would rather smuggle passports to make money. After being caught, he went to jail. He refused to sell the house and now he was paralyzed. If he promised Gan Jing to return to China with her, wouldn't it be a drag on her?
At this point, as long as Gan Jing doesn't marry Jiang Haokun, he is satisfied.
Although Gan Jing had disappointed him and made him angry, it was no longer important to a paralyzed patient. As soon as she learned about his condition, she flew to the other side of the ocean to see him. What could be more touching than this kind of behavior? ?
"You went to jail quietly before and didn't ask me if I wanted to sell the house to make up for the shortfall. Now you're like this and you still want to be brave?" Gan Jing grabbed his hand and said, "Come back to China with me. Well, at least we still have me, Jiahe, and our classmates, it’s better than you being here alone.”
"..." Lu Yuan pursed his lips, as if he wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say.
"Lu Yuan, can you stop being so stubborn?" She was a little angry, with a guilty look in her eyes.
"Okay, I'll go back to China with you."
He finally compromised, because of Gan Jing and because he was almost driven crazy by the environment here. When he gave up on himself before, he drank tons of wine from a bottle of wine. When he was drunk, he didn't know anything. Now he can't die. Life is not a happy life. When I wake up, I just count the stains on the ceiling and endure the glare and abuse of the Mexican nurse, because she knows that he has neither friends nor relatives here, and there are no consequences for messing with his body. This inhuman life was driving him crazy.
Back in China, with Gan Jing by my side, it was much better than here.
"Okay, I'll go to the doctor to go through the discharge procedures." Gan Jing was very happy, stood up with a smile, opened the door and walked out.
Lu Yuan was also very happy because he was about to leave this hellish place.
Returning to China, no matter what, is better than dying alone in a foreign land.
…
Half a month later.
The two returned to Shanghai from the United States.
When the commercial vehicle parked in the hospital parking lot, the driver helped move the people from the car to the stretcher.
Lu Yuan looked at the sign opposite with a puzzled expression: "Why are you here at the hospital?"
Gan Jing explained: "I have contacted a doctor for you. Let's do a few tests first and then build a personal file so that the doctor can understand your situation and find suitable physical therapy to help you get better as soon as possible."
"Get better?" Lu Yuan was deeply doubtful about this. He didn't think he could get better now.
"What if a miracle happens?" Gan Jing said, "You have to have confidence in yourself."
"..." What else could Lu Yuan say? I can only shut up and let her plan her future life.
It took almost half a day to do almost all the tests that could be done, from blood routine to electrocardiogram, liver and kidney function, CT... and it was not until the evening that he was pushed into the orthopedic ward by two nurses.
It’s similar to what we had in the United States before, with a double ward. Given the tight domestic medical resources, such conditions are already very good.
The curtain used to isolate the beds was raised, and the hospital bed opposite was empty. At a glance, you could see the scenery outside the window. There were two pots of aloe vera on the windowsill. The rich green added a lot of bright color to the cold environment.
"You're tired after a long afternoon, I'll buy you something to eat." Gan Jing comforted him, opened the ward door and walked out with his handbag in hand.
Lu Yuan was indeed a little tired, not physically, but mainly because he was a little tired after being fiddled with by doctors and nurses all afternoon.
After Gan Jing left, he closed his eyes and prepared to rest for a while to recuperate his spirit.
Although he was paralyzed, his thoughts of love and love could not be realized. After more than two months of settling, he had accepted his fate, but he was very happy to be able to see Gan Jing every day and let her feed him with water and food. .
Dong Dong Dong~
Almost three minutes later, there was a knock on the door outside.
He thought it was Gan Jing who had returned, but when he turned around, he realized that it was not the case. The person who opened the door and walked in was Peng Jiahe.
"How did you come?"
"You speak much more smoothly than before." Peng Jiahe walked to the hospital bed and sat down.
Lu Yuan said: "When you were in the United States, why did you leave without saying goodbye?"
"Because, because..." She hesitated for a while: "Because I have to come back to work."
"Are you at work? Where do you work?"
“The Gray Whale Restaurant.”
"Gray Whale Restaurant? Isn't the person named Feng in charge of Gray Whale Restaurant?"
"Yes, he is in charge, but don't worry, he doesn't dare to do anything to me."
Lu Yuan frowned when he heard this: "Did Jiang Haokun force you?"
"No, how is that possible?" Peng Jiahe's eyes darted sideways, which made her answer unconvincing.
"By the way, where is Aunt Gan Jing?"
"She went to the restaurant to get food."
"Oh, I haven't eaten yet." Peng Jiahe pretended to touch his belly and pointed outside with his finger: "I'll go find her and come back later."
After saying that, he quickly picked up his bag and left.
Lu Yuan looked at her with confusion, wondering what was wrong with her and why she looked like she had done something wrong.
The answer was soon revealed.
As Peng Jiahe left, someone opened the door and walked in.
When Lu Yuan saw his enemy's face, his expression changed: "Why is it you?"
"Let me see you, old classmate."
These words are quite yin and yang, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
"Get out of here, get out of here right now, or I'll call a nurse."
Lin Yue didn't move, just smiled and waved outside.
Two men in suits walked in, pushing a hospital bed with a hanging bottle on it, and removed the empty bed from another bed.
Lu Yuan looked at the unconscious woman on the bed and was speechless for a moment.
Yes, it was Jiang Lai. Jiang Haokun actually pushed Jiang Lai to his ward.
"Jiang Haokun, what are you going to do?"
"What do I want to do? What do you think I want to do?" Lin Yue nodded to the two men. They turned and left, closing the door behind them.
"Lu Yuan, didn't you want to marry my sister and spend the Jiang family's money? Now you got your wish. How can you say that tragic and poignant sentence? We can't live in the same quilt, and we must die in the same hole. Jiang Lai has become a vegetative state, and now you Even though he is paralyzed in bed, this can be regarded as a match and the hardware matches."
He patted Lu Yuan's hand that could not move and said with a smile: "Don't worry, from now on your food, clothing, medical expenses and money for hiring a caregiver will all be borne by the Jiang family. Old classmate, look how good I am to your brother-in-law. Your wish will come true, won’t it?”
Jiang Haokun was smiling, a very warm smile, but it fell in Lu Yuan's eyes, but it seemed like he was facing the devil directly.
By now he had figured everything out.
Marry her sister Jiang Lai and get a lot of money from the Huajiang family?
Jiang Haokun was helping him, but this help was based on maiming and paralyzing him so that he could not go anywhere and could only lie in bed with Jiang Lai as a ward couple, and then took out Jiang Zhihua's inheritance. Bear the living expenses of "the couple".
When Jiang Lai was not dead, Jiang Haokun wrote such a script for him. If Jiang Lai died, maybe this guy would kill him, then hold a ghost wedding for the two of them, and then bury them in a sky-high price cemetery. , which can be regarded as achieving his wish.
So vicious!
"Jiang Haokun, I am XXX!" He was swearing again, because he couldn't move his hands or kick, so he couldn't hit anyone. Apart from this, he could not find a channel to vent his anger.
"Nurse, nurse, nurse..."
Seeing that the swear words had no effect, Lu Yuan called out to the nurse again.
He never imagined that he had just emerged from the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den. He was lonely in the United States, but he was no longer lonely when he returned to China. Instead, he was angry.
