Chapter 341: Chapter 341: What a Waste Not to Be an Actor

Through their recent interactions, Han Bowwen had come to understand Ding Liang somewhat.

Ding Liang might not have been exceptionally intelligent, but he was full of cunning ideas, especially when it came to matters related to financial gain. His mind always worked quickly on these things.

Sure enough, Ding Liang soon said, "That’s right, I do have an idea, but this idea is a bit complicated and will need the approval of my uncle and aunt."

Ding Lijuan was somewhat impatient, "What does it matter how complicated it is? As long as we can get the money, everything is negotiable!"

Han Bowwen also nodded in agreement, "Exactly, the most important thing for us now is to get the money in our hands!"

Only after confirming the attitudes of Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen did Ding Liang reveal his idea.

"What? Have me take sleeping pills?!"

Upon hearing Ding Liang’s plan, both Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen were incredibly surprised.

The main point of Ding Liang’s idea was still to win sympathy from Han Jingting.

However, Ding Liang’s tactic this time was rather bold – it was for Ding Lijuan to take sleeping pills and pretend to commit suicide!

Ding Liang nodded, "That’s right, my sister is now very guarded against you. If you directly ask her for money, she definitely won’t give it."

"I’ve thought it over, and only this method can truly scare my sister."

"Only if she’s scared will she listen to you and follow your advice in the future!"

Hearing Ding Liang’s words, Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen fell into deep thought.

They also realized that if they really wanted to get the money, this seemed like the best, and the only viable method!

At this point, Ding Liang added, "Aunt, don’t worry. The normal dosage of sleeping pills is one pill, and you just need to take four or five."

"That way, not only will the symptoms convince my sister, but you also won’t be in any danger to your life!"

Ding Liang’s last words acted as a reassurance for Ding Lijuan.

Finally, Ding Lijuan made up her mind, "Okay, let’s listen to Xiao Liang and do it this way!"

Without risking the child, you can’t catch the wolf. For the sake of money, Ding Lijuan was truly going all in!

A few hours later, in the old alley.

It was now late at night, and in the room, Chen Xuan and Han Jingting were both sound asleep.

At that moment, the ringtone of a cellphone shattered the silence.

Han Jingting opened her sleepy eyes, thinking there might be some emergency at the company.

When she saw that the call was from her boss Han Bowwen, she was quite surprised.

Why would her father call her this late?

Without overthinking, Han Jingting directly answered the call.

Before Han Jingting could say a word, it was Ding Liang’s urgent voice that came through, "Sister, come quickly. Aunt is in a bad way!"

"What?!" A blankness swept over Han Jingting’s mind before she could react, "What do you mean? What happened exactly?!"

Ding Liang cried out over the phone, "Aunt took pills to commit suicide. Sister, come to Medicine King Hospital quickly. If you’re too late, I’m afraid you won’t get to see aunt for the last time! Wuu wuu..."

"What? Suicide?!" Han Jingting was stunned.

She couldn’t comprehend how her mother, who was fine during the day, had suddenly chosen to commit suicide!

Han Jingting didn’t have time to say much more. After hanging up the phone, she quickly got dressed.

Only then did she notice that Chen Xuan, who had been sleeping on the floor, had already gotten dressed and was waiting there.

"I’m coming with you!"

In fact, even when Chen Xuan slept at night, he remained highly vigilant.

He had heard everything during Han Jingting’s phone call just now.

Han Jingting didn’t have time to say much and followed Chen Xuan to drive directly to Medicine King Hospital.

On the way, Han Jingting’s heart was extremely tense, and her hands were clenched tightly into fists.

Chen Xuan wanted to comfort her but didn’t know what to say.

Twenty minutes later, they finally arrived at the hospital.

As soon as the car stopped, Han Jingting rushed out the door and ran toward the emergency department.

When climbing the steps, she was so hurried that she even injured her leg, but she didn’t care about it at all and continued to run forward.

Upon reaching the door of the resuscitation room, she saw her father Han Bowwen, Ding Liang, and Guo Yueling anxiously waiting there.

"Dad, how is Mom? Why would she think of doing this?" Han Jingting approached and asked.

However, as soon as she came close, Han Bowwen slapped her across the face.

"Why? Do you still have the face to ask why? It’s all because of you!" Han Bowwen roared in anger, then sat down on the ground and started to cry.

In fact, this slap had been specifically instructed by Ding Liang.

Ding Liang had said that only by slapping her could they make Han Jingting more convinced of their story, and only then could their act be performed more convincingly.

At that time, Han Bowwen had even mockingly praised him for his ingenuity, lamenting that it was a pity he didn’t become an actor.

Han Jingting was indeed stunned by Han Bowwen’s slap, not understanding how her mother’s suicide had anything to do with her.

Ding Liang spoke up, "Sister, you don’t know. Auntie was upset because she heard today that you took out ten million to share with the employees of the company; it was this that made her want to end her life..."

"What..." Han Jingting felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

She had never dreamt that her well-intentioned monetary reward for the employees would lead to the tragedy of her mother’s suicide!

Chen Xuan couldn’t stand to watch any longer.

With Ding Liang saying such things, wasn’t he deliberately making Han Jingting feel guilty!

Chen Xuan angrily rebuked him, "Ding Liang, don’t talk nonsense! What does Mom’s suicide have to do with Jingting rewarding the employees?"

Who knew that upon hearing this, Han Bowwen suddenly became enraged, "How is it unrelated? Ding Lijuan and I are Jingting’s parents!"

"We put in so much effort trying to get some retirement money from Jingting, but she refused us."

"And now, Jingting turns around and gives ten million to those workers who aren’t even related to us!"

"It’s clear that in the eyes of you children, we old folks are not even as good as those hired outsiders!"

"Your mother cares so much about her face, how could she not be furious! Wuu wuu wuu..."

This time, in order to get the money, Han Bowwen really went all out, discarding any sense of face or bottom line.

Hearing Han Bowwen’s scolding, Chen Xuan was at a loss for words.

Han Jingting felt even more guilty.

Only now did she realize the magnitude of the mistake she had made.

She had only been thinking about the company, only about pacifying the employees, but she had neglected the feelings of her own parents!

At this moment, Han Jingting felt overwhelmingly guilty.

So, it really was because of her that her mother had attempted suicide!

As a daughter, to have driven her own mother to the point of taking her life, she was truly incompetent!

"It’s all my fault! It’s all my fault!!"

Filled with immense guilt, Han Jingting began to cry bitterly.

If it really were her fault that her mother ended up seriously hurt or worse, then she truly didn’t want to live any longer!
