    Chengwu felt his world spin…


    “Dad—” Xia Zhi screamed as he ran to catch Chengwu before he fell.


    Chengwu had a sickly pallor and his eyes were fluttering.


    Xinghe caught up to them and ordered, “Xia Zhi, call the ambnce.”


    “Okay” Xia Zhi said with a shaking voice. As he pulled out his phone to call the hospital, Xinghe tried her best to resuscitate Chengwu.


    She had no first aid knowledge but she carried Chengwu over to the sofa,id him down t in the hopes of easing his breaths.


    Thendlord and gathered crowd were shocked by the sudden turn of events.


    The crowd slowly dispersed afraid that they would be roped into a nasty situation if anything serious was to befall Chengwu.


    “This has nothing to do with me, I barely touched him. He fainted on his own,” thendlord said hurriedly as he made to leave.


    Xinghe lifted her head and shot him a withering nce. It stopped him in his tracks.


    The startledndlord said, “Told you I had nothing to do with it, I won’t let you pin it on me!”


    “If you leave now, I swear I will use every ounce of my energy to take you to court. Leave if you dare,” Xinghe said with a smile. Her tone was eerily friendly considering her threat.


    Thendlord wanted to argue some more but Xinghe had already turned her head away.


    Flustered, he stood right there, heeding her warning…


    After the ambnce came and Chengwu was carried away on a stretcher, Xinghe took deliberate steps towards thendlord.


    Sizing up the small and thin woman before him, thendlord inexplicably heard his inner voice telling him that this woman was not to be crossed.


    Then, he started to have second thoughts. He was physically so much stronger than her that he could possibly strangle her with just one hand, so why was he so afraid of her?


    Before he could do anything though, Xinghe opened her mouth to ask, “Who ordered you to do this?”


    “What?” thendlord was taken aback.


    Xinghe didn’t have the time to chase circles with him so she repeated, “Tell me who ordered you to throw us out of our home and I’ll let you off. Or else the next time we meet would be in the courthouse.”


    <i>This woman is not kidding. She isn’t bluffing.</i>


    This was what his instincts told him. He decided it was best toe out with the truth.


    Even though he was advised against revealing the real instigator but Xinghe was obviously not going to let him off if he didn’t give her a name.


    He measured everything in his mind and concluded that it was not worth getting himself into awsuit for the sake of shouldering another person’s problem.


    Thendlord shrugged and said, “It was a woman who gave me the money to chase your family away. I know nothing about her except that her surname is Wu.”


    Wu Rong!


    The name appeared in Xinghe’s mind immediately. She already had ns to deal with that despicable woman but Wu Rong found her first.


    <i>Since she yearns for an early death, I’ll give it to her!</i>


    Xinghe turned swiftly and got into the ambnce. Thendlord let go of the breath that he didn’t know he was holding.


    At the hospital, Xinghe and Xia Zhi were told that Chengwu had already missed two dialysis sessions.


    Earlier, Chengwu told them he dide.


    Turned out he was saving the money from his own treatment to pay for Xinghe’s recovery.


    His illness was exacerbated and they almost lost him.


    The doctor exined to them in a somber tone, “The patient’s situation has stabilized somewhat but he can’t survive much longer without an immediate transnt. Thankfully, there is ast-minute opening, so with your agreement, we would like to schedule the operation for tomorrow.”


    “Doctor, how much is the operation?” Xia Zhi asked with a heavy heart.
