Chapter 720: Fever Returns
Even when her relationship with Li Chenxu wasn't good before, she never felt this bad.
In the past few years, she has been pampered and spoiled by Li Chenxu, never lifting a finger to do anything. Even the slightest bump or bruise would cause Li Chenxu heartache for a long time.
Now look what's happened, he's been abused like this by Chen Lan, I wonder how heartbroken Li Chenxu will be when he sees this.
"Mu Xiaoyu, don't worry, I won't kill you. Your life is still very useful."
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Mu Xiaoyu now finds it extremely difficult to even speak; this one sentence took almost all her strength.
She had never been so disheveled before, but for Li's father and Chen Lan, the more disheveled Mu Xiaoyu was, the happier they felt.
Father Li looked at Li Chenxu with satisfaction. After he had seen enough, he slowly said, "You'll know what to do later. Enjoy today for now. If you speak up tomorrow, things won't be so easy."
After saying this, Li's father and Chen Lan prepared to leave. But before they left, they gave Mu Xiaoyu a meaningful smile.
Those smiles sent chills down Mu Xiaoyu's spine. She wondered how these people would torture her!
As soon as Li's father and Chen Lan left, Mu Xiaoyu felt as if she were in an ice cellar, her whole body was freezing cold.
She really misses Li Chenxu right now and wants to see her at this time.
Mu Xiaoyu sat on the bed, curled up in a ball. With her eyes closed, all she could think about was An'an and Li Chenxu. She now deeply regretted not visiting An'an more often and having a proper conversation with Li Chenxu.
If this is truly the end for her, she will never have another chance.
That night, Mu Xiaoyu developed a high fever.
She is in poor health. Although it's not that cold now, it will definitely be worse at night than during the day.
In this shabby house, besides the wire bed, there wasn't even a blanket. At first, Mu Xi could barely manage, but later, she couldn't take it anymore. She caught several colds, developed a high fever, felt dizzy, and her consciousness gradually faded away.
"Miss Chen, this woman has a high fever!"
The next morning, the person who brought breakfast to Mu Xiaoyu noticed that something was wrong with her. They intended to gently nudge her to wake her, but the touch startled them.
That's way too hot! I wonder how long it's been burning someone. What if it burns them badly?
Upon hearing this, Chen Lan's expression darkened. He quickly walked to Mu Xiaoyu's side, reached out and touched Mu Xiaoyu's forehead. Sure enough, the temperature was frighteningly hot.
"Ms. Chen, what should we do? Should we take her to the hospital now?"
Mu Xiaoyu is extremely useful to them. If they do nothing and let Mu Xiaoyu run a fever and die, then all their previous plans will have failed!
Chen Lan gritted her teeth and stared at Mu Xiaoyu, who was burning up and delirious, wishing she could just kill the woman in front of her.
She truly hated Mu Xiaoyu to the core.
However, she and Li's father had an agreement that, at least for now, she could not touch Mu Xiaoyu.
A mix of emotions surged through Chen Lan's heart. Finally, she said with some reluctance, "Find a local doctor. Be careful in this emergency, and don't let anyone else find out!"
Upon hearing this, the man immediately responded and ran out quickly.
He's now working for Li's father and Chen Lan purely for money. Mu Xiaoyu is their cash cow, and he can't let anything happen to her!
Chen Lan and his group are currently in a small village outside the capital.
The terrain here is remote, and there are hardly any people in the village, making it very convenient to do anything.
Even someone like Li Chenxu would have to spend some time finding Mu Xiaoyu after Chen Lan and the others brought her to this place.
Before this, they did whatever they wanted to Mu Xiaoyu.
Thinking of this, Chen Lan became increasingly agitated as he looked at the unconscious Mu Xiaoyu.
Originally, I planned to take action against Mu Xiaoyu today to vent my anger on her and that old man, but who would have thought that Mu Xiaoyu would have such a high fever now.
When I was reprimanding her before, she was so arrogant, but now that I haven't seen her for so long, she's become like Lin Daiyu.
Filled with righteous indignation, Chen Lan couldn't help but raise her hand and slap Mu Xiaoyu again, gritting her teeth and saying, "Let me tell you, Mu Xiaoyu, don't think you can get away with faking illness. What you have to bear, you can't avoid no matter how hard you try!"
Mu Xiaoyu, who was unconscious, could not hear what Chen Lan was saying. She was in great pain and missed Li Chenxu terribly. Right now, she really wanted Li Chenxu to come and hug her.
Even if she did nothing, she would be content as long as Li Chenxu could hold her.
Unfortunately, even such a simple wish could not be fulfilled by him.
They hired a local doctor for Mu Xiaoyu. He wasn't very skilled, but he could still treat simple colds.
The doctor arrived, briefly examined Mu Xiaoyu's condition, and immediately started an IV drip for her.
The doctor was a local and had never seen Chen Lan and the others before. Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's pitiful state, he subtly glanced at Chen Lan and the others, then coughed lightly and asked, "You all look unfamiliar."
Chen Lan ignored the doctor, but the person who had invited Chen Lan over said with a smile, "We came here to do some research, but one of our colleagues got a fever on the way, and there aren't any hospitals around, so we invited you here."
"A colleague? And that slap mark on her face..."
The doctor looked very curious. Although he was a local and not a particularly outstanding person, he still had a brain and was not going to believe what the other party said about colleagues or being on the lookout.
The slap marks on Mu Xiaoyu's face, and her current condition, clearly indicate that she has been abused!
If Chen Lan were the only one here, he could still rescue Mu Xiaoyu.
But as he walked in, he saw at least seven or eight people along the way.
How could a doctor who doesn't exercise much possibly be a match for these people?
Looks like I'll have to call the police when I get back.
"What are you looking at! If you look again, I'll gouge your eyes out! Anyway, there's nobody here, so even if I kill you right now, no one will find out!"
Chen Lan couldn't stand the doctor's somewhat probing gaze and glared at him fiercely.
The doctor withdrew his gaze from Chen Lan, and in just a dozen seconds, he made a decision with a start.
These people are truly bad people, and he cannot stand idly by and do nothing about this.
