Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!

Chapter 52: Chapter 52 The Antidote is… Getting Through Tonight

That license plate car, it was Jiang Jishu’s!

When Lu Xining and her people found him, he was dead drunk in a bar, and she immediately had someone bring a bucket of cold water in to wake him up.

“Sister Ning?”

Seeing her, Jiang Jishu’s face turned pale, thinking of the woman lying in the hospital bed, “Did something happen to Linlin?”

Lu Xining, with a cold expression, threw a photo in his face, “Jiang Jishu, this car belongs to you, doesn’t it?”

The drunken Jiang Jishu squinted at it, and nodded, “Indeed, this car is mine, but I gave it away a while ago…”

“You gave it to your special lady friend, right?”

Lu Xining answered for him, “Xue Lin learned about your affair because of this car and, heartbroken and pregnant, she threw herself from a building. Am I right?”

Jiang Jishu’s face went pale, and he offered no rebuttal.

Lu Xining’s words weighed down on his heart like a thousand pounds, making it difficult for him to breathe.

She picked up the cell phone on the table and handed it to him, her eyes cold and stern, “Now! Immediately! Call this woman out for me!”

Even a fool would know something bad had happened.

Jiang Jishu hastily asked, “Sister Ning, what happened?”

As he spoke, he took someone off the blacklist.

The person was a minor celebrity, quite pretty, brought to a drinking party to entertain him, and he had played along for a while.

He dialed the phone, and the joyous voice of the woman came through.

“Mr. Jiang, you finally thought of me. Juanjuan misses you so much.”

“Night Club, room 808, you have twenty minutes.”

Twenty minutes later, the woman hurried over.

Seeing the soaked Jiang Jishu in the dim private room, she paused for two seconds, then, smiling like a butterfly, she flew towards him.

Just then, the lights in the private room brightened.

Lu Xining was sitting on the sofa behind Jiang Jishu, her gaze icy as she watched the woman, who turned deathly pale upon seeing her.

“It seems you know who I am.”

The woman snapped back to reality, shaking her head vigorously, “No, I don’t know!”

Her cheeks paled, her eyes darted about, and she clutched her too-short skirt tightly, not daring to meet Lu Xining’s eyes.

“Where were you at four o’clock this afternoon?”

“I, I was at home.”

Lu Xining’s fingers were delicate, like those of a pianist, but at that moment, they fiercely gripped the woman’s throat, making it difficult for her to breathe.

“Han Lijuan, I am not a tender person. I am giving you one last chance. What were you doing at four o’clock this afternoon!”

Frightened by her imposing aura, Han Lijuan tried to pry Lu Xining’s hands off while frantically shaking her head.

“Or should I ask differently, what did Liu Xixi promise you?”

Han Lijuan, her eyes wide with fear and guilt, looked at her, shocked that she knew these things, her inner fear growing by the seconds.

She then remembered, Liu Xixi was soon to become Mrs. Ji of the Shi’an Group, a lady of high status and fortune seemingly within easy reach.

Han Lijuan told herself, it’s okay, just endure this and it’ll be over.

However…

“It hurts, please let me go!”

“I really don’t know anything, I was at home all day.”

Jiang Jishu, terrified by the sight of Han Lijuan’s trembling form, sobered up and sat quietly to one side, not making a sound.

Lu Xining’s expression darkened as she looked at Han Lijuan, the chill in her eyes evident as her gaze swept over the woman’s face, then she spoke lightly.

“Continue.”

Han Lijuan desperately shook her head in refusal but ultimately couldn’t withstand Monkey’s strength.

In the last moment, she broke down and confessed everything.

“The child is in Jingzhou Suburb, Luori Village.”

Monkey immediately sent his men to find the person.

Righteousness might not be his forte compared to Ji Muye.

But when it came to the messy dealings hidden in the dark, no one had broader connections or stronger power than him.

“It was the Lu Family’s doing; they said as long as I cooperate and play the part, they would give me two hundred thousand. My mother needs a lot of money for her hospital bills, I had no choice, they forced me, please let me go.”

Lu Xining looked at her crocodile tears.

With a light sneer,

“Han Lijuan, I am not the fool Jiang Jishu, do you think a suffering ploy can earn you forgiveness after a mistake?”

The sobbing Han Lijuan’s facial expression stiffened.

“You are an orphan, picked up by a childless couple in Luori Village, who provided for your food, drinks, and education. Yet, the first thing you did after graduation was to steal the money for your adoptive father’s medical treatment to flaunt wealth.”

“Your adoptive father died from illness, and as for your adoptive mother… you sold her to the Liu Family for ten thousand yuan, and now no one knows in which remote deep mountain’s widower’s home she resides.”

Fear filled Han Lijuan’s eyes; the woman in front of her actually knew her secrets!

Under the torment of both mental and physical pain, she lay on the ground, curled up and trembling with fear.

Jiang Jishu, standing nearby, stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

He had paid extra attention to Han Lijuan initially because of her tragic background, giving him the illusion that he could be her savior.

Was it all fake?

Recalling how he had repeatedly lied to Xue Lin for her and left home to care for her at night, a tidal wave of remorse surged within him.

Jiang Jishu’s gaze at Han Lijuan was filled with hatred, all because of her deception, he had wronged his Linlin!

Before long,

Monkey received a message from his subordinates.

He leaned over to Lu Xining and whispered swiftly.

Lu Xining nodded, and together with him, led people to that address.

Han Lijuan collapsed on the ground like a dead fish, and when she saw Lu Xining and the others preparing to leave, she immediately lunged forward and grasped her legs.

“You promised you would give me the antidote!”

Lu Xining kicked her away, looking down from a height at the woman on the ground, who was neither tall nor well-proportioned, and certainly no match for Xue Lin in appearance.

Her almond eyes glanced mockingly and coldly at Jiang Jishu; this man’s eyeballs were merely ornaments.

For such merchandise, he had failed Xue Lin?

Blind and even more ironic.

Feeling the mockery in her gaze, Jiang Jishu’s heart tightened.

He interpreted the meaning in her eyes.

Bowing his head, he did not dare to make a sound.

Lu Xining looked down at her and coldly laughed, “The antidote is… surviving tonight.”

Terrified, Han Lijuan asked, “And if I don’t survive?”

She looked up at the woman in front of her, noble and goddess-like in beauty, with delicate facial features surpassing any other woman she had seen before.

Lu Xining glanced at her, “If you don’t survive, then wait for death.”

Han Lijuan trembled uncontrollably, unable to believe the words she heard, and attempted to lunge again but was kicked away by Monkey.

The severe pain in her chest rendered her speechless.

Silence returned to the room, Han Lijuan pinned her hopes on Jiang Jishu, but saw only disdain in the man’s eyes before she could speak.

Jingzhou Suburb, Luori Village.

When Lu Xining arrived, Monkey had already cleared the scene.

Ji Chao and Ji Ze were carried out by bodyguards.

Lu Xining immediately checked the two children’s bodies; they had no external injuries, but it was clear from their deep sleep that they had been drugged.

The emotion of having retrieved what was lost made her eyes tear up, and her hatred for Liu Xixi deepened.

Lu Xining instructed Monkey to go back to fetch her daughter, while she took Ji Chao and Ji Ze back to the ZN Laboratory ahead of time.

She needed to ascertain if the drugs in the children’s bodies would cause any harm to their brains or bodies.

Soon, a helicopter was called.

As Lu Xining was boarding the helicopter with the children,

A black Maybach raced up and stopped beside the plane.

Ji Muye stepped out of the car and hurried over to Lu Xining.

He reached out to hold Ji Chao in Lu Xining’s arms, while Yan Dong went to hold Ji Ze in the bodyguard’s arms.

However, Lu Xining sidestepped, and the bodyguard also dodged Yan Dong’s hand.

Members of the Ji Family and Lu Family faced each other once again.

Lu Xining tightened her grip on the children and a scornful smile curled on her lips, each word like a sharp dagger fiercely stabbing into the man’s heart.

“The mighty CEO of Shi’an Group, and yet no match to my ability to find people, are you?”
