Chapter 224 - 224 It's Bad For Her Reputation
224 It’s Bad For Her Reputation
No matter how hard they pleaded, Zhao Chuchu was unmoved.
She just looked at them indifferently.
When those people saw this, they were gradually overwhelmed with frustration.
No matter what they said, Zhao Chuchu did not answer anymore, let alone agree to treat them.
The other people wanted to say something but stopped.
As the commotion went on, they started to go crazy.
“Bitch, since that’s your plan, none of us will survive.”
Probably because they felt Zhao Chuchu had left them no other choice, they broke down, got up, and tried to kill Zhao Chuchu before they died.
However, before they could get close to Zhao Chuchu, she kicked each of them away.
Zhao Chuchu smiled. “What? You want to kill me? You have to see if you have the ability to do so. I am not your mother. I don’t have to spoil you. I can understand you not accepting the operation at the beginning. Maybe I’ll be kind enough to save you if you had not made trouble for me.
“But what have you all done? First, you didn’t believe in my medical skills, so you wanted others to kill me? And now you want me to repay your grievances with virtue? Do you think it’s possible? Let me make this clear now. I would rather watch you die before me now than save you.”
Seeing this, the family members of those patients began to curse.
“You should be condemned for saying things like that!”
“You will be punished sooner or later, and you will be struck by a bolt of lightning.”
“You’re an evil woman! God will punish a bitch like you!”
“Don’t worry about that. God will punish you before he punishes me. I have never been ashamed of myself. If there’s karma, you people should be the first to get it.” She looked at them fearlessly.
Zhao Chuchu turned her head to look at Xie Jun and told him, “Junjun, remember, don’t ever forgive people so easily, or they will stab you in the back once you turn around. So don’t be kind to such people ever.”
Xie Jun pursed his lips tightly. What he had seen and heard in Qiaoyi Town these days was far beyond his perception.
He never knew how vicious people could be, nor did he know that so many people in the world were struggling more than he was. Everywhere was filled with numbness and despair, but there was goodness too.
Even if Xie Jun had begun to adapt slowly, it still had a significant impact on his mind.
“Chuchu, I will!”
“Well, if you save someone who is ungrateful once, never think to save them again because you don’t owe them anything!”
“Okay.”
“Junjun, in this world, men are the most complicated creatures. Therefore, never test a man’s integrity because the most terrible evil spirits are the humans themselves.”
Zhao Chuchu was looking at the villagers when she said this.
The treachery of men was more than just a phrase. It was the truth.
The villagers of Heyang Village had not really experienced desperation, so they were not that treacherous.
One would see the dark side of human beings in doomsday.
But Zhao Chuchu wanted Xie Jun to remember this so that in the future, if he could sit in the top position, he would be able to see things from a different perspective.
At that time, Xie Heng would not be able to take care of everything for him.
Benefits were what drove men to go to extremes. She would rather they still be brothers in the future like they are now than see them turn their backs on each other.
However, after those villagers heard the words, they not only did not reflect on themselves but also resented Zhao Chuchu even more.
But Zhao Chuchu didn’t care at all.
Zhao Chuchu was never going to change her mind.
Moreover, even if she managed to save them, they would not be grateful and even take it for granted.
“You can do whatever you want, but you will not intimidate me. But if you can’t kill me, it’s you who will die!” Zhao Chuchu stared at them and spoke word by word. “I studied medicine for my own sake, not to be a savior. So leave God to do his own thing. I’m just a normal person.”
Seeing that Zhao Chuchu was unwilling to save them, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed. “We don’t want to die. Please save us…”
Zhao Chuchu stood in front of them. Even if their heads were blood-stained, she did not frown.
At this point, they finally understood that Zhao Chuchu could really be cruel to such an extent that she was nonchalant about all their requests.
Gradually, one person stood up and slowly walked out of Dachuan’s house.
When someone led the way, there was a second and a third.
They walked out of the house expecting to turn back, hoping that Zhao Chuchu was just teaching them a lesson and would call them back.
However, Zhao Chuchu did nothing.
They were desperate.
Even if they were already half dead, they still had the strength to curse and swear, cursing Zhao Chuchu with the most vicious words.
“Alright, let’s go.” Zhao Chuchu waved her hand and signaled the other villagers to leave.
When everyone left, Xie Jun looked up at Zhao Chuchu. “Chuchu, you are not wrong. You learned your medical skills on your own. It has nothing to do with them. They are not qualified to force you to do what you do not want.”
“You don’t think I was being too cruel?” Zhao Chuchu smiled and asked.
Xie Jun shook his head. “No, they are the ones who did not believe in you in the first place and wanted to harm you. I do not want you to save them at all. Don’t be sad. Except for them, everyone else loves you. In my heart, you’re the best person in the world.”
Zhao Chuchu stroked Xie Jun’s head. “So, what have you learned these days?”
“I have learned a lot, but I have also seen many things the books don’t record. My brother told me that whether it is a natural or man-made disaster, the people are still the worst hit. He told me to make sure I remembered this. The people are what sustain the foundation of a country. If the foundation collapses, the country will cease to exist.”
“Well, your brother is right. Junjun has grown up and knows so much now.”
In fact, Qiao Heting had been watching Zhao Chuchu from the side.
He knew very well why Zhao Chuchu refused those patients, but he did not blame her for that.
He was not a pedant. Perhaps because of the reputation of the Qiao clan, he could forgive people who set him up. But more often than not, he envied Zhao Chuchu’s recklessness because she could live her own life without being restrained by anything.
Those who were truly powerful were qualified to lead a life like that.
“Mrs. Xie, may I have a word with you?” Qiao Heting stepped forward.
Hearing this, Xie Jun immediately sensed something unusual.
He pulled Zhao Chuchu behind him and used his thin body to protect Zhao Chuchu by standing in front of her. He stared at Qiao Heting with a cautious look. “Why don’t you wait till my brother comes back? Just the two of you spending time alone is bad for her reputation.”
Qiao Heting was speechless.
“We’ll just be in this courtyard. What the hell is the kid thinking?”
“Chuchu, my brother will be back soon,” said Xie Jun as he turned back to Zhao Chuchu. “Mr. Qiao is handsome and attractive. He better stay here in case he attracts a bunch of girls.”
Qiao Heting was again speechless.
