Ye Ling listened calmly and smiled faintly. “Letting me not pursue this auntie’s responsibility isn’t impossible, but I do have a few requests.”
Aunt Mei couldn’t tolerate Ye Ling’s smug demeanor. She wanted to rush up and slap Ye Ling twice. “You b*tch, how many more requests do you have? Who do you think you are? Bah! ”
The middle-aged man immediately pulled Aunt Mei back, saying anxiously, “Could you calm down? Today, you misunderstood Comrade Ye Ling. We’re discussing how to solve the problem now. Can you hold off speaking for a moment? Let’s hear what her requests are.”
“Comrade Ye Ling, what do you request?” The middle-aged man turned to Ye Ling with a smile.
Ignoring Aunt Mei’s resentful glare, Ye Ling smiled, hands behind her back. “The first request, naturally, is compensation for my emotional distress. I don’t ask for much, just ten yuan.”
“Ten yuan? Why not just go to rob?” Aunt Mei’s expression turned instantly fierce. If someone hadn’t intervened, she would have slapped Ye Ling.
Ye Ling glanced indifferently at Aunt Mei- “Fifteen yuan.” freewebno(v)el.com
Aunt Mei was close to fainting from anger. The middle-aged man, seeing Aunt Mei still wanting to say something, urgently grabbed her arm. “Don’t provoke her, or she’ll raise the price again.”
Aunt Mei panted heavily, feeling a dull pain in her chest and heart, making it hard to breathe.
Ye Ling withdrew her gaze and smiled before continuing. “The second thing is, I saw your daughter-in -law almost lose her life in your house. If she goes back with you and something happens, you might blame the pharmacy again. So, I suggest letting her stay here for a few days. I can help with her recovery. How about that?”
Aunt Mei didn’t even finish listening before instinctively wanting to refuse.
However, the middle-aged man lowered his voice. “Ah Hui’s condition doesn’t seem right. This Ye Ling says she can help treat her. You could save some money. When Ah Hui recovers, you can take her back. That’s a good idea.”
Aunt Mei frowned. “How could this person possibly propose conditions beneficial to me? She must have other intentions. I don’t trust her.”
“Up to you. We don’t even know if Ah Hui is possessed by a ghost now. If it were me, I wouldn’t dare bring her home like this. Think carefully. If you take Ah Hui home, you’ll have to continue treatment. Do you still have money?” The middle-aged man was speechless and didn’t bother to persuade further.
Aunt Mei was caught in a dilemma after hearing the middle-aged man’s words. She didn’t believe Ye Ling would be kind, yet she didn’t know how to handle Ah Hui if she took her back.
Just as Aunt Mei grappled with her thoughts, Ah Hui, who had been silent, suddenly screamed and shook her head frantically. “I don’t want to go back! I don’t want to go back!”
Aunt Mei’s expression darkened further.
Ye Ling patted Ah Hui’s shoulder, offering comfort, then addressed Aunt Mei. “Auntie, it seems Ah Hui truly can’t stay in your house any longer. That might have been the reason for her illness earlier. I strongly advise you to consider my suggestion.”
Gritting her teeth, Aunt Mei glared fiercely at Ah Hui, then said, “Fine, but I’m warning you. Don’t try any tricks. If something happens to my daughter-in-law here, I won’t forgive you!”
Upon hearing Aunt Mei’s words, Yun Jie rolled her eyes.
This old woman was shameless. Ye Ling had helped her take care of Ah Hui for free, and she dared to threaten Ye Ling.
“I won’t inject needles into people’s bodies or break their fingers,” Ye Ling said coldly. “You can rest assured about that.”
Ye Ling’s tone was full of mockery. When the people around heard this, they all looked at Aunt Mei with faint condemnation in their eyes.
Aunt Mei’s face turned pale. She wanted to deny it, but what Ye Ling said was the truth. She couldn’t even find an excuse.
“Do you have any other requests?” The middle-aged man was afraid that Aunt Mei would quarrel with Ye Ling again.
Ye Ling smiled. “No, my request is very simple, but I hope that some people won’t go back on their words.”
The middle-aged man sighed in relief. He was glad Ye Ling hadn’t asked for too much. “Then let’s handle this privately. Everyone here today is a witness. Comrade Ye Ling, rest assured, Aunt Mei won’t go back on her word..”
