Chapter 101: Cinderella and Trash Prince Episode 22

  The diagnosis result showed that the three people suffered from severe burns, which were not limited to the skin surface but penetrated deep into the muscles and even tendons. The damage was also permanent, with partial necrosis of the skin and flesh, and even if they recovered, it would be impossible for them to regain their original appearance.

  Lin Chenghua and Lou Tianren are okay, they were injured on the back and leg respectively, and as men, they don't mind scars that much. But Yang Ningning is in a worse situation, the doctor said that even if she undergoes plastic surgery in the future, she can only recover 60-70%, which is already an optimistic estimate. So it's already destined that her appearance will be ruined, it's just a matter of degree.

  Lou Tian thought for a moment and decided to take Yang Ningning back to the capital for treatment. Although he still couldn't look at her face without any rancor, after all, he was a person who valued loyalty and gratitude, and he couldn't abandon Yang Ningning at this time.

  Yang Ningning was still reeling from the blow of her disfigurement, and now she hated everyone - hated those neighbors for not helping in time; hated Lou Tianyi and Lin Chenghua for fighting at her home and implicating her; most of all, she hated Lin Chenghua who had quarreled with Qiu Xiaoguang, if it weren't for him, none of this would have happened, and they would still be happy as before. So she hated! Hated! Only hatred could make her slightly forget the pain on her face and in her heart.

  When Lou Tianren proposed this, neither of the mother and daughter objected. After all, the medical technology here was much better than that in C City. Yang Mu saw that Lou Tianren did not abandon her daughter at this time and was overjoyed to see hope again, but she was still worried that he would change his mind in the future. Her daughter could only rely on him now, and no matter what, she had to grasp this lifeline. As for Lin Chenghua's side, it was already completely hopeless. Not to mention that her daughter's face was ruined, even if it wasn't, the two families were now at odds, and it was impossible for her daughter to marry into the Lin family again. So, Yang Mu thought for a moment and went alone to Lou Tianren's ward. Lou Tianren couldn't face Yang Ningning yet and felt that he needed some time to accept this fact, so he specially asked the hospital to arrange a room on a different floor for him. If there was anything, he would let someone else run errands or communicate by phone.

  Yang's mother said to Lou Tianyi: "Little Lou, I know this proposal is a bit presumptuous, but please understand a mother's feelings. I know your feelings for Ningning are genuine, and I'm touched by that, so I'm willing to entrust her to you, but I don't want her to go with you without any formalities, so can you two get a certificate before you leave?"

  Lou Tian was completely shocked by Yang's mother's proposal, he had never thought of marrying Yang Ningning at this time, even if he had not thought of becoming her husband so quickly before. So subconsciously refused: "Auntie, I can understand your concerns, but even without a name, I will take good care of Ningning, you can rest assured that my family has no elders who will interfere, no one will gossip, besides Ningning is just my ordinary friend now, I don't want to take advantage of her, let's talk about this later."

  Yang's mother made up her mind and couldn't give up easily, as it concerned the future of their mother-daughter relationship. She continued to persuade him: "Xiaolou, if it weren't for the fact that there was no other choice, Auntie wouldn't have brought this up with you either. The truth is, Ningning's situation is really terrible right now. You should know what it means for a girl to lose face. She's completely given up on herself and Auntie is worried she might do something drastic. Even if you just pity us mother and daughter, give her some hope, okay? Right now, the only one who can take care of her and be her support is you. This time, since you both got hurt together, it counts as going through thick and thin together. To say something unpleasant, Ningning also saved you before, and this time getting hurt was partly because of you. A person can't be heartless, right? Auntie is begging you, Auntie is kneeling down for you!" Yang's mother said, actually kneeling down in front of Lou Tianyi.

  Lou Tian's heart was filled with mixed emotions, and Yang mother's words made him somewhat unhappy. Especially when she blamed him for Ningning's injury, which was clearly an accident that no one could have anticipated. And as a senior, she knelt down in front of him, mentioning Ningning's life, wasn't this forcing him to agree? If he didn't agree, it would mean he had no conscience and didn't care about Ningning's life or death. But in the end, he wasn't a heartless person, especially when Yang mother mentioned Ningning's lifesaving favor towards him, which touched his weak spot. After some thought, he agreed to her request, replying to Yang mother that as long as Ningning didn't object, he would agree to register their marriage first, and the wedding could wait until they both recovered.

  Yang's mother returned to her daughter's ward with great joy, and the gloomy clouds that had been lingering for a long time were finally dispersed. She excitedly shared the good news with Yang Ningning. Yang Ningning was originally unresponsive, she didn't have any romantic feelings towards Lou Tianyi, but after this blow, she was no longer the same person as before. The original her was somewhat selfish and sometimes unintentionally hurt others, but overall she was still a kind-hearted girl. However, now she was blinded by hatred and had lost her past simplicity and dedication to emotions.

  Thinking of Lin Chenghua abandoning her, she must find someone better than him, richer than him!

  Thinking that she could get to know Lou Tianren, and Lou Tianren would be so good to her, even after she got hurt, he was still willing to propose, it was all because he mistakenly thought that the one who saved him back then was himself. This way, it can also be said that she snatched him away from Ji Xiaogu's hands, otherwise, his goodness should have been for Ji Xiaogu. Thinking of this, her heart felt a thrill again. Such a good man, Ji Xiaogu, you missed out on him, he is mine now, and will be in the future too, hahaha!

  Thinking of her mother's tears and the mocking from their neighbors, she must fight for her and her mother's dignity!

  Thinking of the young nurses in the hospital looking at her with those pitiful or pretending-to-be-calm expressions, she wanted to let them know that even without relying on her looks, she could still marry a man they would never dream of having for themselves!

  For these reasons, when Lou Tianyi called her and asked if she was willing, she replied "good" and even said a lot of sweet nothings to Lou Tianyi, which were things that the past her would not have been able to do.

  Lou Tianren was a bit unbelievable, but he was a man who dared to act and take responsibility. Since he had promised, he would definitely do it. He let his assistant take the two people's certificates and composite photos to rush to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the marriage procedures. Of course, all of this was thanks to his special privileges.

  And so the two of them became husband and wife under such circumstances.

  The next day, the group took a special car back to the capital. Yang's mother also went with them to take care of her daughter. Before they left, Lin Chenghua's condition had stabilized and he was transferred to the best hospital in the province. However, when he received the wedding certificate photo sent by Yang Ningning, he was still very angry. But thinking of Yang Ningning's face, he calmed down and directly put her on his blacklist without replying.

  Let everything end like this, he has paid enough for this wrong emotion. At this time, he just wants to recover from his injuries as soon as possible and then make up for Xiaogu with all his might, win her forgiveness, and live a ordinary but happy life together. But unexpectedly, the misfortune had only just begun.

  With Lou Tianren's character, he couldn't just swallow his pride and leave quietly. Lin Chenghua had set up a project to trap him earlier, and although Lou Tianren was new to C City, he wasn't inexperienced in business. He had already established connections with relevant departments when investing, so when Lin Chenghua made his move, Lou Tianren immediately understood his intentions and even sent someone to monitor his actions. When asking others for help, one has to show some courtesy, right? So, Lou Tianren turned the tables on him and collected a lot of evidence of Lin Chenghua's bribery. Originally, he had planned to use this evidence to threaten Lin Chenghua into breaking up with Yang Ningning, but now that wasn't necessary, so he directly handed it over to the police.

  So Lin Chenghua was mysteriously arrested on the second day of his arrival at the provincial hospital, although he was quickly released on bail pending trial, but ultimately could not escape imprisonment and was sentenced to two years in prison.

  Under the continuous blows, Lin's mother, who was originally weak and sickly, finally couldn't hold on and passed away during her son's imprisonment. When Lin Chenghua learned of his mother's death in prison, he went crazy, injured a prison guard, and cried out for revenge against the couple, but was eventually stopped. Although the prison authorities took into account the mitigating circumstances and did not increase his sentence, his leg, which had been scalded, was reinjured due to excessive force and left him with a slight limp after it healed, leaving him with a disability.

  What he didn't expect was that on the day of his release, in addition to his father, there were also his less-than-one-year-old half-brother and a smiling woman with a warm face standing beside his father - the accountant who used to be under him, not much older than him.

  Haha, haha! Lin Chenghua burst out laughing and tears streamed down his face.

  "Cheng Hua, don't be like this, you're still your father's child, and I ask you to consider me too. After all, the Lin family business can't have no one to inherit it, and you can't..." Mr. Lin explained, but it was really better not to explain at all.

  Son, son, he also had a son... that unborn child was killed by his own hands.

  It's karma! It really is karma!

  He used to despise those children, including Xiaogu. Now he is willing to pay any price to get them back, but unfortunately, it's too late. What face does he have left to win back Xiaogu? What qualifications does he have to give her happiness? Even the Lin family business is no longer his, he has nothing now, really, nothing at all!

  My mother is gone.

  A healthy and whole body is gone.

  Lin's family junior east position was gone.

  My lover is gone.

  The house is gone.

  What else?

  The former proud son of heaven fell to the ground, he didn't cry, but laughed maniacally at the prison gate, hahaha, hahahahaha...

  That laughter is enough to make one's blood run cold.
