Translator: 549690339

Jin City’s First Hospital.

The doctor spoke.

Nie Wenzhi is not in mortal danger, but… for the rest of her life, Nie Wenzhi will have to lie in bed.

And that’s not all.

Nie Wenzhi suffered burns covering eighty percent of her body, most of her internal organs were severely damaged. Being confined to a bed is an understatement. To be accurate, she cannot speak, walk, eat, or even go to the toilet. Her situation is far worse than a vegetable.

A vegetative state at least means one cannot feel the pain, at least they’re in a state of unconsciousness.

But she is cognizant of everything, she feels all the pain, she has all her mental faculties intact, yet she’s rendered helpless like a vegetable, unable to do anything.

Song Zhizhi and a nurse moved Nie Wenzhi to the ward.

The doctor said that it would take one to two hours for the anesthesia to wear off.

Once she regains consciousness, she would experience unbearable pain. She wouldn’t be able to move, let alone speak.

All she can do is endure the pain, endure the intense pain.

Song Zhizhi sat by the hospital bed, and Song Zhidao arrived shortly after.

Song Zhidao was shocked when he saw Nie Wenzhi, her entire body wrapped in bandages, with only her eyes, nose, and mouth exposed.

The exposed parts were disfigured due to the burns, looking incredibly terrifying.

“How did it come to this?” Song Zhidao murmured, flabbergasted.

Just a moment ago, he had seen Nie Wenzhi full of life, and now she suddenly appeared so horrifying.

Song Zhizhi shook her head, “My hopes may have been dashed.”

Nie Wenzhi had not turned into a vegetable, but there was no real difference.

She couldn’t speak, so she couldn’t ask any questions.

Her hands were severely burned and deformed. The doctor said that even after the burns healed, they definitely wouldn’t be able to function, let alone write.

In other words, aside from being able to perceive the surroundings, she was no different from a vegetable.

Song Zhizhi’s throat bobbed.

She had exerted so much effort, gotten this far, and thought she could gain something from Nie Wenzhi’s situation. But to her utter disappointment, she came up empty-handed.

She found it hard to accept.

She clenched her teeth tightly, her heart oppressed.

Seeing his sister’s turmoil, Song Zhidao tried to comfort her, “Sister, don’t be like this. Even if we don’t know Nie Wenzhi’s true intentions, knowing that we have uncovered her true nature and that there won’t be a ticking time bomb among us is enough.”

No, it is not enough.

It’S far from enough.

She initially thought that seeking revenge on Nie Wenzhi at the time of her rebirth would put an end to everything. Assuming Nie Xiaofei and Yi Wenhan were merely Nie Wenzhi’s underlings, once Nie Wenzhi was dealt with, their family would finally be at peace.

But that wasn’t the case.

She discovered that Nie Wenzhi was merely a pawn, just a minor player. The real puppet master, the one who posed a constant threat to their family, still lurked in the shadows, menacingly observing their every move, while she remained clueless about their identity!

She was on the brink of collapse.

“Sister.” Song Zhidao looked at her changing expression, “Don’t think too much about it.” Song Zhizhi was struggling to control her emotions.

She kept telling herself not to overthink, that there would come a day when everything would be resolved, she just needed to be patient.

Be patient.

But every time she thought of the puppet master, she would be filled with fear and destructive hatred.

“Nie Wenzhi seems to be waking up.” Song Zhidao suddenly interrupted.

Song Zhizhi’s gaze shifted subtly.

Indeed, Nie Wenzhi’s body made a slight movement.

Although it was barely noticeable, she did move.

The moment she moved, she must have experienced unimaginable pain.

She let out a hoarse sound, forming disjointed syllables that are unable to form a complete word.

Song Zhizhi was indifferent.

Song Zhidao no longer felt any pity either.

Anytime he thought about how she had been deceiving their entire family for so many years, he yearned to kill her.

“You’ve woken up, haven’t you?” Song Zhizhi suddenly asked.

Nie Wenzhi opened her eyes at that moment.

She struggled to open her eyes.

The doctor had said that her body was almost entirely destroyed by burns, only her eyes were still functional.

Perhaps even the heavens could not bear to watch and decided to punish her by forcing her to witness everything powerless, unable to change anything.

Song Zhizhi said, “I saved you.”

Nie Wenzhi seemed to recollect everything that had transpired.

At that moment, she tried to move.

But she couldn’t.

The pain in her body was excruciating, prompting a flood of tears from her eyes. She could not voice it out, suffering in silence.

“I just felt that death would be too easy for you. You don’t deserve to die. You deserve a fate worse than death!” Song Zhizhi coldly watched her.

She was watching all the agony Nie Wenzhi was enduring.

She laughed suddenly, it was a bitter laugh, “Could you ever have imagined that one day you would end up like this? Could you have imagined that the family you fooled would know about your treacherous plot and turn the tables?! I almost forgot to tell you, everything about your accident was planned by me. I deliberately led you into a trap and exposed your true nature in front of everyone. You are now despised by everyone!” Nie Wenzhi’s eyes turned red.

Tears kept streaming down her face.

It was an endurance, a reaction borne from extreme endurance.

Was she falling apart?!

Song Zhizhi, a seemingly insignificant character, had driven her to such a state.

“Zhidao, can you step out for a moment.” Song Zhizhi suddenly asked her younger brother.

Song Zhidao was taken aback

“There are some things I need to say to Nie Wenzhi alone.”

Song Zhidao nodded.

He guessed his sister didn’t want him to see her not-so-pretty side, so he tactfully gave her some space to vent.

Song Zhidao left the ward.

Song Zhizhi watched her brother’s retreating figure.

It wasn’t because she was afraid of her brother seeing her ruthless and cold-blooded self, but there were things that she didn’t want her brother to know yet, for it would only cause panic in the family. Since her rebirth was fated, she felt the responsibility to protect her family.

Inside the ward.

Song Zhizhi coldly watched Nie Wenzhi, she spoke, “You must be curious about how I found out your secrets, right? You probably thought that your cover was perfect and that there was no way you could have been exposed. Too bad, I won’t tell you! The more you want to know, the less I will tell you! I want to torment you physically and mentally until my heart’s hatred is quenched!” All the hatred from her past life was unleashed in that moment.

“By the way, I know that Yi Wenhan is your son.” Song Zhizhi stated plainly.

At that moment, Nie Wenzhi got extremely agitated.

More so than before.

Her eyes were fearsome, her whole body seemingly trembling.

Song Zhizhi laughed, “Yi Wenhan has always been curious about why I suddenly became a different person, why I suddenly stopped liking him, even going as far as picking on him! Now I’ll tell you, it’S because I know your intentions, because I know, Yi Wenhan is your son.”

Nie Wenzhi glared viciously at Song Zhizhi.

“Isn’t it painful, this way of threatening loved ones, isn’t it unbearable? Yet you, yet you, have always wanted to see my loved ones die miserably!” Song Zhizhi said through gritted teeth, “Nie Wenzhi, what would you do the day your son dies at my hands?” Nie Wenzhi’s body was shaking even more violently.

“Don’t worry, there will be such a day.” Song Zhizhi laughed.

If Nie Wenzhi could move, if she could respond physically, she would probably take Song Zhizhi down with her at this moment.

But sadly, she couldn’t do anything.

All she could do was watch helplessly, waiting for Song Zhizhi’s arrogance.

And she seemed to know very well that Yi Wenhan really couldn’t beat Song Zhizhi.

And him.

Would his biological father protect him as she would?!

Tears streamed down her face.

She was probably extremely distressed.

But, revenge must be had.

Everything the Nie family did to them in the previous life, she would repay tenfold in this life.

Nie Wenzhi was just one of them.

There was also Yi Wenhan, and the puppet master behind the scenes.

She swore that she would bring them to justice and avenge their scores.

Her eyes moved slightly.

Outside the ward, someone walked in.

Song Ciling and Song Shan came into Nie Wenzhi’s ward.

Song Zhidao followed them in from the door.

Song Zhizhi got up from the bedside.

Qin Ciling looked at the pitiful Nie Wenzhi in bed and said harshly, “This woman, this woman deserves to die and go to hell forever! Why did you save her, Zhizhi, it’s really upsetting just to look at her!”

Song Zhizhi didn’t speak.

She didn’t save Nie Wenzhi out of kindness, but for her own purposes.

But things went contrary to her wishes.

Song Zhidao quickly reassured, “Grandma, Nie Wenzhi’s current retribution is more painful than death. Doctors say she’S alert but can’t make any movements or say any words. She’s completely handicapped!”

“She deserves this, she deserves this fate! A vicious person like Nie Wenzhi deserves thousands of cuts!” Qin Ciling spoke harshly.

She was obviously very angry.

Thinking about being deceived by Nie Wenzhi all these years and how good she had been to her, she wanted to strangle Nie Wenzhi.

Not to mention the many times she felt ashamed because of her misunderstandings of Song Zhizhi due to Nie Wenzhi.

She, an old woman, was fooled to such an extent by Nie Wenzhi!

Where was she supposed to put her old face in the future?!

“Grandma, your health is important, don’t get too excited.” Song Zhidao soothed.

Qin Ciling couldn’t calm down. Every time she thought about what had happened and how she had been played around by Nie Wenzhi, she felt unbearable anger.

She couldn’t stop grumbling.

Song Shan, on the other hand, was very quiet.

He just stared straight at Nie Wenzhi. His eyes were filled with hatred, a hatred that seemed to reach to the bone.

He probably felt regret and anger towards the trust he had placed in her over the years.

Song Zhizhi noticed her father’s unusual expression and quickly went over. “Dad.” Song Shan looked back at her.

Looking at his daughter, he said heavily, “I should have trusted you unconditionally. ”

He had even doubted his own daughter for Nie Wenzhi?!

Thinking back, he wanted to slap himself.

Yet his daughter never left his side, helped him see the true face of Nie Wenzhi.

If not for Song Zhizhi, who knows how Nie Wenzhi would have used him in the future… destruction of family?!

Thinking about it, he clenched his fists.

Nie Wenzhi, this woman, deserved to be struck by lightning!

“I understand how you feel, dad. That’s why I let you act out this drama. Now that the truth is out, I just want our family to be safe and sound.” Song Zhizhi comforted.

She could imagine how her father felt.

She knew her father’s guilt.

Being misunderstood, being speculated about, being distrusted wasn’t important. What mattered was that their family was intact!

“Let’s go.” Song Zhidao suggested.

Everyone who saw Nie Wenzhi would feel a surge of anger.

Why let this woman upset their mood.

Song Zhizhi nodded, “Grandma, Dad, let’s go back”

Song Shan nodded.

Qin Ciling felt surprise at that moment.

She suddenly grabbed Song Zhizhi’s hand.

Song Zhizhi looked at her.

“Zhizhi, I thought you would never forgive me. I misunderstood you time and again because Nie Wenzhi was just too good at pretending. I was deceived time and time again. I really wronged you…” As she spoke, Qin Ciling’s eyes reddened.

Song Zhizhi never held any grudges.

Because she knew about Nie Wenzhi’s tricks, she didn’t take it to heart.

The only thing she wanted was for her family to believe in her, to really trust her.

She clasped her grandmother’s hand and said, “Grandma, I’ve never been angry; there’s nothing to forgive. Don’t overthink it, we’re a family.”

“Yes, we’re a family. Not like Nie Wenzhi, this outsider with a venomous heart! I swear, from now on whatever you say, Grandma will believe you, absolutely!”

Song Zhizhi laughed.

It was a blessing in disguise.

At least, now the entire family trusted her completely.

At least she was able to get her family to tighten their bond, unlike in the previous life, when they were turned against each other by Nie Wenzhi!
