Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs-Chapter 352 - If It Wasn’t for Me, You Would Have Been Ruined
Human ambitions only got bigger and bigger. Later on, this colleague had thought about introducing his younger sister to Shao Qiyang, thinking that after they became a family, he could get his younger sister to influence him.
However, Shao Qiyang didn’t intend to get married. His colleague was indignant, so in the end, he used some tricks to get Shao Qiyang to marry her. Usually, it’d be normal for everyone to drink, but this time, he had drugged the wine. Shao Qiyang was completely awake, but he didn’t have any strength in his body and didn’t even have the strength to speak.
He could guess what they wanted. They wanted to force him to marry someone.
Just now, that girl had shamelessly taken off his clothes and even fed him some unknown medicine. Shao Qiyang was desperate. He hadn’t expected Mu Xue to suddenly appear.
“Let’s leave this place first.” Shao Qiyang was really thankful. Mu Xue did like to be a busybody sometimes, but it was all thanks to her that he managed to escape unscathed.
Mu Xue quickly helped him up, but when they reached the door, it wouldn’t open. The door had been locked from the outside—it had been locked by the girl with the braids.
She was afraid that the matter would be exposed. Seeing that Mu Xue had run in and the door couldn’t be opened, she decided to go all in and lock the door from the outside. After locking it, she went to look for her older brother.
Mu Xue couldn’t open the door and was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. However, she felt that her entire body was getting hotter and hotter. This wasn’t her imagination. Shao Qiyang, whom she was supporting, was getting hotter and hotter.
Shao Qiyang felt it and even subconsciously approached Mu Xue. When Mu Xue reacted and looked over, Shao Qiyang almost kissed her face.
“Shao Qiyang, what’s wrong with you?”
Shao Qiyang jolted when he heard her voice. “I…”
As soon as he spoke, his voice was hoarse. When he sensed that something was amiss, Shao Qiyang’s mind exploded.
He knew what kind of medicine this was.
Shao Qiyang tried his best to distance himself from Mu Xue. He fell to the ground but couldn’t care less. “Mu Xue, stay away from me.”
Mu Xue had yet to react but wanted to go over to support him. Shao Qiyang closed his eyes. “Don’t come near me. I’ve been drugged.”
Mu Xue, who was stunned, suddenly reacted. “You…”
“Stop it. Hurry up and call for help.”
However, no one nearby responded to Mu Xue’s shouts. “What should we do? There doesn’t seem to be anyone around.”
“I don’t know what’s going on, but this place isn’t far from the county street. Before they come back, you could… climb up the wall and go out to open the door. Regardless of whether you’ll take me to the hospital or look for someone, you have to crawl out first.” Shao Qiyang indicated that he had also seen some television drama or movie with a character that had been drugged and recalled the things that had happened after that. Fortunately, he was still rational even though he didn’t have any strength now.
What is this? Why had he encountered such a thing?
Mu Xue observed the height of the door and the wall and hesitated. It was a little high. Furthermore, there were shattered glass shards on it. “I…”
Shao Qiyang was lying on the ground, so he couldn’t see the glass shards. Seeing that Mu Xue hadn’t moved, he became even more anxious. “Hurry. Don’t tell me you want to be my antidote?”
“No!”
“Then why aren’t you moving faster? Or do you not even know how to climb a wall? You’re not that stupid, are you? You’ve never climbed a wall or a tree before?” They were all from the same village. They had all climbed before, right?
However, Mu Xue had indeed never climbed before. There was nothing she could do at the moment. She could only brace herself and move things to cushion her feet.
As she moved, she looked at Shao Qiyang, who was still lying on the ground. “Shao Qiyang, do you want me to move you into the room first?” It was strange to lie like this.
“I’ll just stay like this. Go quickly.” He leaned against the ground. Thanks to the cold, he could sober up a little.
Shao Qiyang felt increasingly uncomfortable. “Stop talking. Hurry up, or I’ll teach you a lesson.”
Hearing Shao Qiyang’s threat, Mu Xue gritted her teeth and climbed up. Her hands and legs were scratched by the glass shards and hurt terribly. She had even sprained her ankle when she’d jumped down. Mu Xue was so angry that she wanted to curse.
Seeing that the door was indeed locked, Mu Xue picked up a rock and used a lot of strength to smash it open before moving Shao Qiyang out with difficulty.
After walking with effort for a while, they finally met an enthusiastic auntie. The auntie was stronger than Mu Xue. Looking at Shao Qiyang’s condition, she clicked her tongue. “You young people really know how to play.”
Shao Qiyang: “…”
Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Shao Qiyang heaved a sigh of relief and felt that he had finally been saved.
However, in reality, the hospital wasn’t omnipotent. Given his condition, the doctor could tell at a glance that he had taken the kind of medicine sold outside, the very medicine that he shouldn’t have taken. However, there was no medicine that could neutralize the effect of this drug. He had to endure it.
It was impossible for the hospital to find a bucket of ice water for him to soak in. They could only prescribe some medicine to calm him down.
Shao Qiyang: “…”
It was really too much of a scam. He didn’t have any strength in his body, but that spot felt terrible.
Shao Qiyang was lying on the hospital bed and facing Mu Xue unwillingly. Mu Xue could only pass him a glass of water.
In the latter half of the night, Shao Qiyang finally felt better. Now that he had strength, he didn’t feel so terrible anymore.
However, when he looked at Mu Xue, he felt a little uncomfortable. She had seen him in his most pathetic state!
However, after calming down, he noticed Mu Xue’s wound. “What’s wrong with your hand?”
“As I was climbing the wall… I scratched it.”
Shao Qiyang took a deep breath. “We’re in the hospital. Can’t you bandage it first? Or do you want to deliberately leave the wound for me to see so that I can be grateful to you?”
Shao Qiyang hadn’t been like this in the past, but after growing up in the past two years, seeing Shao Xi and Shao Nan’s vicious mouths, and witnessing Mu Jingzhe’s sharp tongue, his mouth had slowly become poisonous.
Mu Xue’s expression froze. Anger flashed across her eyes, but strangely, she quickly calmed down. “I’d like to say that you’re thinking too much, but… you’re right. And you really should be grateful to me.”
She felt like she had nothing to lose. “If it weren’t for me, you would have been ruined.”
“You’re the ruined one!” Shao Qiyang was furious. “Mu Xue, these are your true colors, right? I was blind to fall for you back then…”
“That’s right. These are my true colors. I’m also human. I know how to scheme and I have bad intentions. I also know what it’s like to be jealous and regretful. So what? I’m not surprised that you… you like me. I guessed it long ago.”
“I don’t like you anymore!” Shao Qiyang felt less uncomfortable seeing Mu Xue like this, but he had to clarify this.
“I’ve known for a long time. Don’t you like Mu Jingzhe now? Unfortunately, she’s your sister-in-law, so she can’t be with you!”
Now that his thoughts had been exposed, Shao Qiyang was a little nervous and angry. However, he was also inexplicably happy. He felt that someone finally understood his feelings.
“No matter what, she’s better than you!” Shao Qiyang simply didn’t deny it, but when these words were said, the unwillingness that had been suppressed in his heart seemed to lighten a little.
Despite their quarrel, Shao Qiyang still took Mu Xue to the doctor to clean and bandage the wounds on her hands and legs.
Shao Qiyang, who had been tormented the entire night, was extremely tired. He went back and rested for a day before going to work the next day. He immediately fired that guy.
Only then did his colleague feel afraid. He wanted to salvage the situation, but it was too late.
