Chapter 144 The Ji Family Returns to Their Home
Shengxia was skeptical about this reason. After all, who could believe that the Huo family would be short of a car?
But since they said so, she can't just say she doesn't want to be bothered, right?
So, Huo Tingxiao and his group stayed there for another day smoothly.
During this day, Shengxia was not idle because You Er developed the antidote for the poison.
Out of professional interest, Shengxia studied You Er's antidote thoroughly and finally came to a conclusion -
You Er is indeed quite capable.
If she were to develop the antidote herself, it would probably take ten days or half a month to complete.
Of course, all this is based on You Er's in-depth understanding of the poison. Since she doesn't understand it, it naturally takes her more time.
But it’s powerful enough.
Shengxia gladly accepted the antidote, but Huo Tingxiao asked questions again and again very cautiously.
"Does this antidote have any side effects? Will it cause any harm to the body?"
Only after You Er finally used his own life as a guarantee did Huo Tingxiao finally feel comfortable letting Sheng Xia use the antidote.
……
the other side.
Because all the bank cards and assets were frozen, the Ji family now only has some remaining cash in their hands to use.
They could no longer afford the hotel bills, so they packed up and returned to their former home.
That old house next to the crematorium.
Yun Lan had already had a falling out with them, so naturally he would not go with them.
Last time, Ji's mother and Ji Wenyue teamed up to beat her up, and Ji Wenxuan just stood by and watched coldly, which completely chilled Yun Lan's heart.
Even though his face was scratched and a strand of hair was pulled out, it was nothing compared to the pain Yun Lan felt in his heart.
Besides, the property under her name was not frozen, so she naturally didn't need to go to the Ji family to suffer.
When Ji's mother saw Yun Lan lying motionless, her eyes suddenly turned and she grabbed her arm.
"No, you have to come with us!"
Yun Lan was puzzled and shook off Ji's mother's hand.
"Are you crazy? Why should I go with you?"
"Since you're all going to divorce me, why should I go with you?"
Mother Ji glared at her, "Don't forget, you and Wenxuan are still married, and the twelve million is your debt!"
"You want to escape? Dream on!"
Yun Lan felt as if he had heard something out of the Arabian Nights, and was simply at a loss whether to laugh or cry!
"You actually want me to pay back the money that Shengxia spent on your family? Do you Ji family members have any shame?"
Really, the Ji family’s shamelessness can really refresh her worldview infinitely!
Ji's mother was totally unaffected by her and pointed at her and cursed at her.
"Bah! If you hadn't ruined my son's marriage, would our family have fallen into this state?"
"It's all your fault, you disaster star!"
Yunlan couldn't reason with Ji's mother, so he questioned Ji Wenxuan.
"Ji Wenxuan, say something!"
Ji Wenxuan didn't want this to happen. He didn't have any hatred towards Yun Lan. After all, she was the woman he had liked for so many years. It would be enough if they could part ways in peace.
But just as he was about to say that Yunlan didn't need to follow him, he was stopped by Ji's mother.
She winked at Ji Wenxuan and lowered her voice and asked, "Do you still want to save your father?"
With just one sentence, Ji Wenxuan suddenly had an epiphany.
"Now we can't get all the money out. We can't even pay the lawyer fees!"
Ji Wenxuan listened to his mother's words, and his gaze towards Yun Lan gradually changed...
After a long while, he said to Yun Lan: "It's not safe for you to live in a hotel alone. We haven't divorced yet, so you should come with us first!"
How could Yunlan agree to that?
She looked at the way the Ji family looked at her, like a hungry wolf seeing meat...
"No need. The formalities have to be completed anyway. I don't need you to worry about it." Yun Lan suddenly felt a sense of panic in his heart.
Ji Wenxuan slowly approached her, staring at her intently.
Under Yun Lan's horrified gaze, he slowly held her hand and said, "Be good, pack your things, and we'll go together."
Yun Lan shook his head, "No... I won't leave..."
She pointed at Ji's mother, her eyes filled with hatred.
"They beat me like this, and I still dare to go with them?"
"Am I being abused?"
A trace of guilt flashed across Ji's mother's eyes, and she blamed herself for being impulsive at the time.
Ji Wenxuan comforted Yun Lan, "There won't be a next time, I promise. Go pack your things quickly."
How could Yun Lan believe this nonsense? She wanted to refuse, but she couldn't break free from Ji Wenxuan's hand.
She raised her eyes suddenly, and only then did she see the indifference in Ji Wenxuan's eyes that could not be rejected...
The indifference is a bit creepy...
Yunlan panicked.
But she had no choice. The Ji family forcibly took away all her belongings, and she could only follow them to the old and run-down apartment with two bedrooms and a living room.
Thick smoke billowed out of the chimney of the crematorium next door. Yun Lan stood in front of the old three-story building and could almost smell the pungent odor...
Yun Lan looked at the dark corridor at the entrance of the unit. There was no light at all, and he could even smell the faint stench of garbage. He felt indescribably depressed...
Ji Wenxuan's home is on the third floor. It is said to have two bedrooms and a living room, but in fact there is only a dining table in the living room, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a kitchen.
The house even had a cement floor that was bumpy in some places, and the furniture seemed to be from the last century, the kind that no one would pay for if they were taken to a flea market. Because no one had lived there for a long time, the furniture was not only covered with thick dust, but also with a layer of sticky stuff like oil smoke, which smelled choking.
The moment Yun Lan set foot here, he wanted to escape immediately...
There has never been a moment when she felt her life was so dark and hopeless!
However, the most desperate thing is yet to come.
Ji Wenxuan stretched out his hand towards Yunlan, looking as if it was a matter of course.
"Lanlan, we can't withdraw money from our bank cards right now. Please pay for our living expenses first. I'll pay you back when I can withdraw money later."
Yun Lan was struck by lightning in an instant!
