56 Nothing but a Toy
Zhao Chuchu asked Old Man Zhao, “Did she ask you to come?”

Old Man Zhao was stunned for a while. “Huh?”

“If she wants me to fix Zhao Baogen’s legs, I don’t mind doing that, provided that she comes and begs me to do so!”

“Isn’t that why I am here?”

“You are you. Both of you are different people. Don’t even think for a second that I knew nothing about the hijacking. Do I have to spell out everything she did to me for the sake of you?”

Old Man Zhao was red up to his ears and he was at a loss for words.

Zhao Chuchu walked past him and spared no glance at him.

Those people had bullied the original owner with all their might. So, she had to seek justice for the original owner.

Did they think they could guilt-trip her?

No, it was never going to happen.

Besides, Zhao Baogen’s legs could only be cured by her. Otherwise, he would have to be crippled for the rest of his life.

Witnessing Zhao Chuchu’s mercilessness in play sent shivers down the spine of Niu Tongsheng.

“Chuchu, didn’t you say you will heal them?”

“I can do it. But it will depend on their sincerity, right? Plus, I didn’t go and break their legs without a good reason. They were the ones who robbed me and attempted to sell me off to the brothel in the first place!”

“Sigh…”

“Chief, did you think I’ve gone too far? Why don’t you think about the times when I suffered from their physical abuses and vituperations? I consider it mercy for not taking their lives after what they did to me.”

“It won’t be good if things escalate to the point of parricide…”

Zhao Chuchu put on a suggestive smirk.

How difficult would it be to end their lives?

Nevertheless, this was not anarchy or apocalypse. One would face charges for the crime of homicide.

Needless to say, she did not want to face a lawsuit of murder for degenerates like them.

Though she was used to threatening them with mean words, the act of taking one’s life was a different matter altogether.

The Xie clan’s household was already a stone’s throw away. Zhao Chuchu suddenly came to a halt and retorted to Niu Tongsheng’s remark, “Chief, those who’ve faced death before will not be afraid of it anymore. I will always remember their obloquy and how they tried to execute me on that day.”

Although Zhao Chuchu spoke in a calm tone, the Chief could feel killing intent in her words.

It caused his heart to skip a beat.

“Now that I’ve returned from hell, I’m no longer the same docile Zhao Chuchu as you know me before.” She went on in a casual tone, “You know what? It’s good to be alive.”

“Chuchu, why did you not heal yourself at that time?”

“Why, you ask? Because I wanted to die. There was no hope in my life at that time. Yet, I couldn’t pull off dying. After I opened my eyes again, it suddenly dawned on me that the world was actually a beautiful place. So, I want to live my life to the fullest this time after I was given a second chance. Chief, you know I didn’t want to marry Xie Heng then.”

Zhao Chuchu peered at Niu Tongsheng when she spoke.

The latter rubbed his nose and avoided the former’s gaze.

“Chuchu, it was all in the past now. You’ve already gotten married. You should live a quiet and decent life with A Heng from now on.”

“People had been telling me the same thing since back then.”

Although the original owner was forced to marry Xie Heng, she did take good care of his siblings. Yet, she did not succumb to her fate entirely. She held on to the tiny hope and waited for the young man who gave her flowers, thinking he would come back for her.

Otherwise, she would not have treated Xie Heng with “respect”.

The original owner could not see the big picture, seeing that she was the person involved in the situation. However, Zhao Chuchu could see everything clearly from her perspective as an outsider. That person treated the original owner to be nothing but a toy. In fact, that man and Zhao Zhizhi even flirted with each other. But the original owner was too innocent to see through his facade.

Following that, the Zhao clan set the original owner up with Xie Heng, and Niu Tongsheng sided with the Xie clan so that she would marry the man. He did so because the original owner’s crush was the son of his distant cousin.

“Chuchu…”

“Chief, I didn’t mean to blame you. Some things were meant to happen.”

Apart from not sharing the marriage bed, Xie Heng did not mistreat the original owner.

Even when the original owner was sick, Xie Heng would send for doctors to cure her illnesses.

Before Li Jiang came to the village, Zhao Zhizhi provoked the original owner by claiming to have a wedding with that young man, subsequently causing the latter to lose her will to live. It was after the fact that she ended her life then and there silently…
