The four women froze.
They hadn't expected the cripple to fight back, hence the reason for their surprise.
Heh...planning on stomping me down before I even entered the door?
Why? So that you can stomp on me for the rest of my life?
Not happening!
Qing Yue had seen girls like the ones standing before her in her previous life. The more you back down, the fiercer they would come at you.
Since she wouldn't be getting off the hook by being tolerant and docile, then why should she keep her silence? Why should she allow them to see her as easy prey?
She was Young Madam Long, the legal wife of Long Tian.
If anything, they should be the ones being docile and tolerant.
"Husband, Yue'er is tired of sitting on this chair. Hug!" She looked up and cutely raised her arms towards her husband.
The scornful expressions on their faces vanished, replaced with shock and disbelief.
They were shocked that with her hide
Yi Qin felt stifled. What the heck was wrong with Long Tian? Did he not feel any disgust calling such an ugly mummy his wife? Even if his father had forced him to marry the girl, he shouldn't be so serious about her, right? "Tian Tian, as your mother, I only want the best for you. What's wrong with me wanting my son to marry a beautiful and presentable woman? Is it wrong for me to feel dissatisfied with the choice you and your father forced on me? You knew...you knew how much I was looking forward to my only son's marriage. You knew how extravagantly I wanted to marry your bride in. But in the end, what did I get? A simple marriage certificate that was signed without my presence!" The more she spoke, the more wronged Yi Qin felt. In the end, she couldn't control her emotions and broke down into tears. Long Yuwen anxiously hurried to her mother's side and held her shoulders, her own eyes filling with tears as she thought of her own shattered dr
Long Tian carried his wife up the stairs and turned left. Qing Yue curiously took in her surroundings. As wide and spacious as the Li Mansion, the Long Mansion radiated an aura of majesty and nobility. The second floor of the mansion was clear of security guards. However, there were metal detectors embedded in the glass corners and ceilings. On this side of the Long Mansion was a three-person silver sitting table leaning against the glass wall and a metal door which probably led to a room. Long Tian walked to the metal door and a red flare light lit up and scanned his facial features. "Face recognition clear!" The red flare vanished with the clearance of the robotic voice, and an eye scanner popped out. It slid forward and fixed on Long Tian's pupils, another red flare swept down and scanned his irises. "Eye scan clear. Welcome back, Young Master Long." With an audible click, the door slid apart. "Yue'er this is my room. From t
Qing Yue was having a good dream when the nightmare struck.The same scene of rotting corpses and wailing women, convulsing and spasming humans with froth coming out of their mouths, severed limbs, burning buildings, and a river of blood.Time and reality shifted in a dizzying rush and the red eyeball throbbing with bloody veins that resembled the waterlines of the New World Formation, enlarged and filled her vision."Ahh!"Qing Yue woke with a strangled cry. Cold sweat dripped down her forehead and mixed with her unshed tears. With her heart drumming in her ears, her wild, haunted eyes roamed around the unfamiliar room.Too warm...The room felt too warm for comfort.She raised a hand to wipe her tears and froze.Ah...bandages.The moment she saw the bandages wrapped around her arms, a flood of memories rushed into her mind."I'm at the Long Mansion." With this realization, the mounting panic in her heart receded
At exactly 5 am in the morning, Qing Yue sat up and pressed the purple button on her chest. Her automatic wheelchair wheezed from the corner of the room and appeared in front of her. Using her hands, she pushed herself off the bed and onto the chair. Then with familiar precision, she wheeled herself into the restroom. The lights automatically came on and the door closed behind her. Qing Yue rolled herself to the bathtub, took off her clothes, gingerly placed her feet on the ground, and supported herself with her hands. At this moment, if anyone saw this scene, they'd be shocked senseless. Because at this moment, the Qing Yue that was deemed to be a cripple for life, was standing on her own feet. Though her balance was skewed and her legs still dragged a little, compared to a week ago when she'd first arrived at the Long Mansion and couldn't even drag herself to the bed, her current situation could only be described as a miracle. Qing Y
By the time her treatment ended, Qing Yue didn't even possess the strength to keep her eyes open. Her entire body shook uncontrollably with violent tremors. But even then, the wide smile on her bloodless lips was hard to ignore."Li...Feng...I did...it." She stuttered and passed out.At 6 am, Long Tian woke to the light of the bright sunlight. He turned on his side and slid his hand across the bed. When he failed to find his wife, his eyes sprung open and he sat up in a panic."Yue'er? Yue'er!"Long Tian hurriedly leaped off the bed. His heart pounded in his chest as the last incident of her sprawled on the floor resurfaced in his mind.He hastily ran to the other side of the bed and found the floor...empty."Yue'er...?"Maybe she's in the washroom.Still anxious and worried, Long Tian walked toward the washroom and hesitantly knocked on the door."Yue'er? Are you in there?" There was no reply. Long Tian called out a few
The moment Dr. Ren returned to Long Medical Hospital, he entered his private laboratory and locked the door. "Did the SmartCom truly malfunction? I have to make sure." Dr. Ren was still doubtful about the results of the health screen. He hurriedly set up his equipment and connected his SmartCom to his WebCom and put on his Shades. The moment his consciousness entered the WebCom world, he checked the results three times. "This...this results really Young Madam Long's severed nerves are reconnected!" Dr. Ren was shocked out of his mind. A patient, discharged with a report of being a cripple for life actually has the astounding result of being able to walk in a few months! Dr. Ren felt his head spin with excitement and disbelief. He took off the WebCom Shades and stood trembling in place. "This is it! If I find out how this happened, I'll make the breakthrough I need to become famous in the medical institute! Haha!" He threw back
Long Tian was aghast. "Kidnapped!? Who dares to kidnap Li Chen's daughter?" Qing Yue looked at him cynically. "Who doesn't want to kidnap Li Chen's daughter?" Long Tian paused. He'd almost forgotten. When the world turned bleak and the homeless became dirty and thin-bodied with hunger, their signature saying was 'kidnap Li Chen's daughter and you'll live the rest of your life in bliss'. He just never expected such a matter to really occur. "After that kidnapping incident, Dad dropped me out of school. He hired professionally certified teachers and instructors from every subject. I learned everything I needed to learn, but all from home. From that day, I was homeschooled and never stepped foot in Long Junior High again." She sighed helplessly. Qing Yue already had difficulty blending in with those of her age because of her previous life memories. When homeschooling was added to the mix, she got completely cut off from the rest o
It wasn't easy to coax Long Tian. Qing Yue spent about half an hour convincing her husband there wouldn't be any side effects from the poisonous herbs. She spent another half convincing him to allow her to continue treating herself without supervision. "Alright. But only on one condition." "Brother Tian, what condition?" As long as the condition was within acceptable, fulfillable terms, Qing Yue was willing to happily accept it. "For your future treatments, I will be present." He grimaced as the image of her passed out in the bathtub flashed in his mind. If it wasn't for her beating pulse and heartbeat, he might've lost his mind from anxiety and fear. "That..." Wouldn't allowing him to watch her treat herself be equivalent to giving him permission to watch her...naked? She admits he'd already seen her in nothing but bra and underwear when she fell off the bed, but at that time, it was an emergency. This time the situation would
