Chapter 642: Chapter 642: Don’t Believe You’re Not Curious (50+ Extra Monthly Tickets)
When Liu Xi returned home, she was still full of hesitation.
What Suizi said was very tempting to her, but she couldn’t bear leaving Fan Lili.
After all, she raised this girl. In her heart, she thought as long as her daughter said sorry, even through tears, she would be willing to forgive her.
When she returned home, Fan Lili was not at home. Liu Xi did not sleep the whole night waiting for her, worrying about her safety as a girl alone outside.
It wasn’t until the early morning of the next day that Fan Lili came back humming a tune, seeing her mother wrapped in bandages, her first reaction was not guilt but just being taken aback, then acting as if nothing had happened, she went back to her room.
Liu Xi had not slept the entire night and seeing her daughter like this, she couldn’t suppress the anger within her and asked her why.
Fan Lili just nonchalantly responded with, "You didn’t die, did you?"
This sentence sent a chill through Liu Xi’s heart.
Did this child wish her dead then?
The snakes in the zoo were no different—cold-blooded creatures, no matter how much emotion you poured into them, there was no reciprocation.
Heartbroken, Liu Xi grabbed Fan Lili and asked why. Fan Lili frustrated by her mother’s persistence, said something that left Liu Xi speechless.
"She said, if I died, Chen Lijun would have to take the blame; her marriage with Fan Huang would never happen. You would no longer be the Fan’s Family’s lady. Then, Yu Jingting would divorce you because after all, nobody would marry a murderer’s daughter, right?"
After hearing this, Liu Xi felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her. She could not believe that her daughter, whom she had raised for more than twenty years, would so cruelly harm her own mother over something that hadn’t even happened yet.
"Where have I ever wronged her? If she wishes for the stars, I will never give her the moon. How many troubles have I cleaned up for her since she was young? How could she do this!"
Liu Xi covered her face, crying out in pain.
After Fan Lili finished speaking, she pushed her mother aside, went into her room alone, blaring her music, even telling Liu Xi that she wanted to eat dumplings and that she should start making them now.
Her heart thoroughly broken, Liu Xi ran out crying, heading straight for the old Yu’s house.
After hearing the whole story, Suizi felt her scalp tingling with fear and horror.
If she had such a terrifying family member, she might die of fear.
She felt that Fan Lili’s behavior was increasingly out of control, likely in the throes of a mental breakdown, and there might be more to come.
"It’s better to handle this sooner rather than later. I’ll talk to my dad in a bit and have her admitted to a hospital immediately. In the meantime, don’t be alone with her—find a place to stay."
Liu Xi agreed, and they came to a consensus.
Suizi had to go to class soon after, so she rushed to Fan Huang’s house before class started.
It was already past seven o’clock, but Fan Huang’s front door was still closed. Yu Jingting, who was with Suizi, whistled.
"Quite the intense situation... a forty-year-old man, as fierce as a tiger, tsk tsk."
Suizi chided him.
"Don’t make fun of your elders!"
"Oh, aren’t you curious?"
"Ahem."
Of course, she was curious, but she wouldn’t admit it so freely as it would seem improper.
Yu Jingting wanted to climb the wall to get in, but Suizi held him back, fearing the possible implications if they were interrupted.
The two of them stood outside, shouting a dozen times before Fan Huang, dressed in a vest, came to open the door.
Seeing Fan Huang, who had weathered many storms, ignoring Yu Jingting’s innuendo-filled gaze, he opened the door to let Suizi in.
"Dad, with only one hand, how can—"
Suizi quickly stepped on Yu Jingting’s foot and smoothly took over the conversation.
"Drink more bone soup and get better soon." She bet that if she didn’t stop him, Yu Jingting would certainly say something extremely inappropriate.
"Hmm, so early, is there something up?" Fan Huang automatically ignored the unwarranted gaze of Yu Jingting.
"There is something..."
Suizi recounted Fan Lili’s situation, and Fan Huang’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"To be on the safe side, we should admit her to the hospital to see if she’s suffering from any mental illness."
"I understand. You two go to school; I’ll take care of this."
Relieved, Suizi wished to go to school with Yu Jingting, but she saw Yu Jingting keep turning back. When Fan Huang turned around, Yu Jingting chuckled.
"Why are you laughing so lewdly?" Suizi asked.
"These two, they’ve gone wild. Did you see Dad’s back? What’s that?"
Suizi looked back and saw the even claw marks just before Fan Huang entered the house.
Oh my...
If Fan Huang knew that his reputation had been ruined by this vest, he wouldn’t have dared to leave the house wearing this.
During class, Suizi’s mind was filled with the "technical analysis" Yu Jingting had given her on the way.
Yu Jingting, his head filled with random thoughts, enumerated several scenarios from the positions of the claw marks coupled with Fan Huang’s injured arm.
Suizi ended up seeing the mathematical formulas on the blackboard during advanced mathematics as if they were alive, presenting various twisted shapes...
Suizi slapped her face, determined to stay away from the shameless Yu Jingting to keep her dignity intact.
At lunch when they were returning home, they saw smoke billowing towards their home from a distance.
Suizi was startled, and she raced home with Yu Jingting.
When they arrived, they found out that it wasn’t their home on fire but Fan Hui’s house in her backyard.
The fire brigade had already arrived and started extinguishing the fire.
Chen Lijun and Wang Cuihua each hugged a child while standing with the crowd of onlookers.
"Where’s my dad and father?" Suizi asked.
"They’ve gone to the hospital, don’t ask..."
Thinking back, Wang Cuihua was still in shock.
"Thanks to Luoluo, otherwise, Liu Xi might have been done for. She’s been taken to the hospital by our men now."
Liu Xi had decided to side with Fan Huang and Suizi, on the condition that Fan Lili be admitted to a mental hospital.
Although Suizi had advised her not to go home for a few days to avoid a direct encounter with Fan Lili, Liu Xi decided to go home to pack a few clothes before moving to her parents’ home.
She had barely arrived home when the incident occurred.
Fan Lili knocked her out, locked the door from inside, and then set the house on fire.
Luoluo was home at that time, preparing to go out with her grandparents.
Even though she was dressed and ready, she suddenly refused to leave, insisting on seeing Liu Xi.
Seeing her persistence, Chen Lijun eventually took her to Fan Hui’s home.
When they arrived, they discovered the fire.
The fire was silent. Perhaps if Chen Lijun hadn’t come over, Liu Xi could have been choked to death.
Fan Huang broke the window, called Yu Shuisheng for help, and the two men saved the unconscious Liu Xi. However, the fire was too strong, so they had no choice but to call the fire brigade.
If it wasn’t for Luoluo, Liu Xi might not have survived.
"Where’s Fan Lili now?" Suizi asked.
Chen Lijun shook her head. The arsonist had disappeared, and they’d already sent people to search for her.
"What kind of terrible sins must one have committed in a previous life to give birth to such a wretch?" Wang Cuihua was scared by Fan Lili’s disregard for her family. She quickly turned to take a good look at her own daughter-in-law.
