“What poison?”
“What poison? It’s the heavy metal palladium! It’ll make life worse than death, paralyze the whole body, and cause all the hair to fall out! It’s poison among poisons!” Xu Shuying cried out, “What exactly do you want? Isn’t poisoning him enough?”
“Palladium?” Xie Bingyan seemed confused.
“Yes! The palladium from my laboratory! We’ve treated patients with palladium poisoning at the hospital before—wanting to live but unable to, wanting to die but unable to! Mom, people can be cruel, but they shouldn’t be this cruel! Xu Mo is your child! He’s your biological child! How could you be so ruthless?” Xu Shuying continued to cry as she spoke.
“You…” Xie Bingyan seemed a bit panicked, staring at Xu Shuying. “Are you saying that rebellious son has been poisoned?”
“If not you, then who? Both eldest and second sister have checked! We don’t even know if Xu Mo has recovered yet! There might still be aftereffects! Once that stuff gets into the body, it causes huge damage, and it can even burn the brain!” Xu Shuying cried, “Mom, let it go! It’s all over now! Please, I beg you, don’t continue!”
Xie Bingyan didn’t remember such an event and looked at Xu Shuying in silence.
“Xie Bingyan, you venomous woman!”
Here’s the translation of the passage:
—
At that moment, Xu Deming’s voice suddenly came from the doorway. When the two looked up, they saw that Xu Deming had returned in a rage.
He had likely heard the sound of the glass trophy breaking and couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart. He reappeared, holding a bottle, and hurled it toward Xie Bingyan.
“You don’t deserve to be a mother! Give me back my son!”
Xu Deming had already rushed over.
The object struck Xie Bingyan on the head, causing intense pain.
Seeing Xu Deming again, Xie Bingyan was also furious. She quickly grabbed something and threw it at him.
“Stop fighting! Stop fighting!” Xu Shuying cried out.
But the two were already enraged and started grappling with each other once more.
Xie Bingyan, unwilling to admit defeat, clawed at Xu Deming’s face and even grabbed a broom to swing at him.
Xu Deming, equally furious, grabbed her by the face and slapped her hard.
“Xie Bingyan, no one is more vicious than you!”
—
“You poisoned your own son!”
“You wanted Xu Mo to be trapped in a state of life worse than death! You wanted me to suffer the same fate!”
“Xie Bingyan! Today, this isn’t over between us!”
“If you want to kill my son, I’ll never let this go!”
Slap, slap, slap!
The loud sound of slaps echoed as Xu Deming struck Xie Bingyan’s face. Xie Bingyan roared in anger, crying as she threw herself at Xu Deming.
“Xu Deming, I’ll tear you to pieces…”
“Stop fighting! Please, stop fighting…”
The scene became chaotic once again as Xu Shuying, Xu Xuehui, and Xu Yuanchan struggled to separate the two.
When they finally managed to pull them apart, both were gasping for breath, still glaring at each other with eyes that seemed to be blazing with fury, their anger completely unchecked.
—
Xu Deming still wanted to lunge forward, but Xu Xuehui and Xu Yuanchan pulled him away, leaving only Xie Bingyan and Xu Shuying in the room once again.
After the fight, Xie Bingyan’s injuries worsened significantly; her face was already swollen, and her hands were covered in blood.
Seeing this, Xu Shuying panicked and hurriedly brought a first aid kit to bandage her wounds.
However, compared to before, Xie Bingyan had calmed down quite a bit. It seemed that after venting her anger, she wasn’t as furious as earlier.
She turned her head and coldly stared at Xu Shuying, “Did that rebellious son tell you that he was poisoned?”
Xu Shuying froze, instantly feeling a chill run through her body.
She immediately understood what Xie Bingyan meant—Xie Bingyan was implying that Xu Mo was framing her!
Xu Shuying’s heart turned cold as well, filled with despair.
“Mom, whether you want to admit it or not doesn’t matter; no one will force you to confess! But you shouldn’t doubt Xu Mo! Because from the moment he found out he was poisoned, he never thought of doing anything to you, and he has never hurt you!”
“You are his mother! His biological mother! He knows very well how terrifying the consequences of being poisoned are! But he never called the police, never thought of reporting you, and over the years, he never brought up the matter again! You shouldn’t doubt him!”
Xie Bingyan frowned, staring at her.
“This happened five or six years ago! Back then, Xu Mo left the Xu family without hesitation because of this! Eldest Sister obtained his blood test results, and I analyzed the findings! It was severe! But even though it was that serious, even though he was nearly coughing up blood, he still never wanted to harm you!”
Xu Shuying’s eyes reddened. “Even though he knew you didn’t like him, even though he knew you wanted to strangle him, he still didn’t do anything! Why are you doubting him?”
Xie Bingyan remained silent, her face set in a determined expression, clearly still filled with anger.
“Mom, you should bandage yourself! I really don’t know what else to say! I… I want to go find Eldest Sister!”
Xu Shuying began to cry, not wanting to stay any longer. She threw down the medical kit and ran outside.
“Xie Bingyan, you won’t die a good death! You definitely won’t die a good death!”
Xu Deming’s furious roar suddenly came from outside, as if he was being held back by Xu Xuehui and couldn’t get closer.
Xie Bingyan heard these words but didn’t react. Suddenly, it felt as if all the strength had been drained from her body, and she collapsed onto the ground.
She suddenly felt something wet on her face and hurriedly wiped it with her hand, but the blood on her hand quickly smeared across her face.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, deathly quiet, with only the occasional sound of sobbing from Xu Xuehui or Xu Shuying in the distance, leaving Xie Bingyan in a daze.
She tried to recall what Xu Shuying had said, and as her thoughts slowly cleared, she was momentarily stunned, her fingers trembling slightly, unable to respond.
“Poison? Who?”
…
Meanwhile, Xu Junzhe purchased a plane ticket, planning to fly to Singapore. Although he hadn’t finished his business in China, he needed to fly over there to handle some matters for his next steps.
A few days later, if there were no issues in China, he would fly back.
This time, he didn’t inform Gao Caier or anyone else. He wasn’t sure what decision Xu Mo would make regarding him.
He needed to be prepared.
However, when he received his boarding pass and was about to board the plane, the airport security suddenly stopped him.
“Sorry, Mr. Xu, you’ve been banned from leaving the country. Please return.”
In an instant, Xu Junzhe’s face turned ashen!
It had happened!
A boundless fear suddenly welled up inside him!
…
On the other side, Xu Mo was drinking tea.
He was having tea with the Eldest Son of the Xie Family, also known as Xie Zhen.
Xie Zhen was very displeased with his arrival, his face cold as frost, and his gaze filled with murderous intent.
Xu Mo, however, remained very calm. He made himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and couldn’t help but be satisfied: “Top-quality West Lake Dragon Well, a nice choice! Very refreshing!”
—
“Tea isn’t a beverage to be gulped down!” Xie Zhen said angrily.
“Who cares?” Xu Mo replied with a faint smile.
“If you can’t provide useful evidence, I’ll eat you alive! Literally!” Xie Zhen said coldly, glaring at him.
Xu Mo immediately laughed, “The only way you’ll benefit is by working with me. Otherwise, Eldest Son of the Xie Family, you won’t fare well either!”
“I’m your uncle!” Xie Zhen emphasized unhappily.
“Oh, please! Don’t push your luck! Things have already reached this point, and I absolutely won’t let anyone escape!” Xu Mo said with a smile.
“Hmph!” Xie Zhen scowled, clearly unwilling.
