The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 84: The Poisonous Childhood Friend (Part 13)
Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Poisonous Childhood Friend (Part 13)
Su Li had just returned home when Su Chaoyang burst into hearty laughter, giving her a meaningful look.
"Dad, are your eyes twitching or something?"
"Daughter, today Daddy took revenge for you."
"What good deed have you done?"
Ever since Su Chaoyang learned of the Ye Family’s secret intentions, he had become very shrewd and quickly sorted out the whole affair.
Shi Shen had contracted kidney disease, and so had the Ye Family’s lady. How could there be such a coincidence?
Moreover, he discovered that this young man Shi was quite something, actually the tenth man to be granted favor by that young lady of the Ye Family.
He had heard from the Ye Family Head in their circle that although his daughter was ill, she still had a boyfriend who stayed with her through thick and thin, wholeheartedly. Although their statuses did not match, as long as the guy passed his tests, he would approve of their relationship.
At that time, they wondered whether the Ye Family Head was just trying to save face. His daughter had such a disease, and even if she lived, it would still affect her future life. People from the same circle would definitely not consider his daughter, so had he found someone outside the circle for show?
Little did he expect that the truth was waiting here all along.
His daughter had become their target; perhaps he had given them the impression that he was too mild.
Since Shi Shen was involved in this matter, he could not let the Shi Family go.
"Daughter, you just wait, I won’t let any of them off."
Su Li: "...."
Having a good daddy is really important. At least she doesn’t have to get her hands dirty with many things.
Actually, she didn’t understand the original owner of her body. Clearly, many things could have been discussed with her family, even if it was just hinting a little, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a situation.
It could only be said that being love-struck can be very harmful, both to oneself and others.
Was Shi Shen’s deceit really clever? Was Ye Ruolan’s plan perfect?
Actually, not at all. She had just fallen into self-trust.
She had wishfully believed that her childhood friend wouldn’t heartlessly hurt her and had also underestimated the terrible nature of humanity.

Shi Shen and Shi Mu bought tickets in the middle of the night and hurried home.
Back in their old home, because the money in the card had been fraudulently charged, Father Shi lost it at the bank that day and ended up detained at the police station for several days.
When misfortune pours, even drinking water can choke you.
One misfortune after another seemed to accompany each other as they descended upon the Shi Family.
Mother and son of the Shi Family, in a rush, couldn’t book tickets online and had to hurry to the station to see if they could buy some at the counter.
And today, being the weekend, every road in the city was jam-packed.
Shi Shen and his mother rented a taxi, but after several hours, they hadn’t even completed half of the trip, and they couldn’t even manage to have dinner.
Once they finally moved away from the city center and the roads improved slightly, the taxi unexpectedly broke down.
"Can it be fixed right away?" Shi Shen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
The taxi driver opened the hood to take a look, then shook his head helplessly, "I’m afraid not."
"What kind of junk car is this..." Shi Mu, like a raging tigress, suddenly lashed out, kicking the car door with a thud.
The driver had had enough and rolled up his sleeves to yell loudly, "What’s wrong with you? Are you looking for a beating?"
He had been unable to stand this woman from the start of the journey, as she had been cursing and complaining in the car the whole way, giving him no peace. She even demanded he speed up as if his life didn’t matter. If it wasn’t for the fact that her son had paid a good sum of money, he would have kicked her out of the car halfway through the trip.
Shi Shen hurriedly grabbed Shi Mu and hid her behind himself, "Sorry about that, my mother has a bit of a temper. We’re in a rush..."
"Who isn’t in a rush? Your hurry allows you to kick my car and damage it?" The taxi driver was not letting up, his face showing discontent.
Shi Shen was reluctant to get caught up in endless disputes with these lower-class people and asked with a stern face, "So, what do you want to do about it?"
The driver grinned and rubbed his thumb against his index finger, shamelessly exclaimed, "My car just had maintenance done a few days ago."
Shi Shen glanced at the decrepit taxi, and, gripping the somewhat violent Shi Mu, asked, "Name your price."
"Be quick about it, this much."
The taxi driver signaled with five fingers, "Five hundred."
Shi Shen didn’t say a word and quickly took out five red bills from his pocket and threw them at the man, his face full of sarcasm as he couldn’t help but say with a dark expression, "You’re really ripping me off."
The taxi driver: "Heh heh."
The fact was, it wasn’t that Shi Shen wanted to pay, but given the location and the time of night—it was quite deserted. Besides, they had already missed the earlier transports back and now could only catch the high-speed train at one in the morning. That made Shi Shen all the more unwilling to get entangled with the man.
It might be better to just hail another cab.
Somehow it was their unlucky day, the Shi family duo had been waiting since ten at night until twelve, and still hadn’t managed to get a single ride.
As time passed by, the two, who hadn’t had dinner, were already exhausted, while Father Shi was still detained at the police station.
The pair began to grow impatient.
Shi Mu: "How about we try waiting at another intersection?"
"Alright..."
The two walked further down the road until they arrived at a crossroad, where Shi Mu let out a cry of alarm that cut through the silence like a knife.
"Ah Zhi..."
A violent collision sound was especially loud in the air, where under the pallid streetlights, the wide area was a mess, with trampled and collapsed flora all around.
In the pitch-black sky above, a streak of white lightning flashed, and large raindrops pattered down to the ground, washing away the blood-red traces.
Shi Mu was completely drenched and shivering nonstop, not knowing whether it was due to the cold from the dampness or uncontrollable fear.
Doctors and nurses in white lab coats bustled in and out, the emergency room lights came on, and Shi Mu huddled fearfully in a corner by the wall, her eyes unfocused, staring blankly ahead.
Elsewhere, at the same time that Shi Shen was in the car accident, Ye Ruolan’s phone also rang.
"Lady, everything is ready."
By that time, Ye Ruolan had already changed into her surgical attire.
Outside, Shi Mu and Shi Shen, who was being rushed to emergency, were unaware that the operating theater they entered had been replaced with another set of doctors.
And Ye Ruolan, who thought she had everything under control, didn’t know that the person lying in the same room as her was not who she thought it was.
Under the influence of the anesthetic, Ye Ruolan fell into a deep sleep, and right before she slipped into unconsciousness, she was imagining how after today, a carefree life would once again open up to her. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
The lights in the operating room went out.
The masked surgeon came out, "The patient’s surgery went smoothly."
Meanwhile, through another exit of the operating room, another bed with tubes attached was being wheeled away.
