Chapter 327: She Left You Nothing

"I didn't mean to laugh at you," Si Rong exchanged a glance with Jiang Cheng, "it's just that after Bai left back then and you sold the house to return to your hometown, I thought you had figured things out."

"Yes, but back then she was healthy, living a good life," Bai Mu's eye sockets were red, "I know she was selfish and had many bad habits, but before Bai passed away, she was the one he cherished the most. If he knew I stood by and watched her die, I'm afraid that when I go down there later, Bai will hate me."

Si Rong sighed, "If you have made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you anymore. It's just that although my son is researching intelligent aircraft, he hasn't achieved any major results yet, so I'm afraid he won't be able to help. You should still think of other ways."

She did not want to get involved in other people's karma, but her son absolutely must not get tangled up with this Bai Mo again.

"Then, I won't disturb you any further."

Bai Mu knew that she had been rejected.

It seemed she could only think of other ways. If she truly tried her best and still couldn't succeed, then presumably, Bai wouldn't be able to blame her when the time came.

……

So much hatred! She hated so much!

Watching the grand scene of Jiang Sinian and Jiang Yue's wedding on Li Meng's phone, Bai Mo's eyelashes trembled wildly with rage.

"Take it away! Take it away!"

Li Mu placed the phone steadily in front of her, "Is it very painful? Look at those two, they are simply a golden boy and jade girl. What is the use of a cripple like you continuing to indulge in wishful thinking?"

"Go to hell! Go to hell!" Bai Mo felt that cursing her like this was not enough to vent her anger, so she began to attack Li Mu using her weakest point, "It is precisely because you are so vicious that God made your daughter so short-lived!"

"It was all you who cursed her to death! And you still dare to blame all of this on me! You dead old woman!"

Her head was slammed heavily back onto the bed, and Li Mu poured water into her mouth forcefully. The water overflowed into her trachea, and the feeling of drowning washed over her, as if she would die in the next second.

But she wouldn't. Estimating the time, Li Mu loosened her grip on her neck, and Bai Mo gasped for air in large gulps.

She only had enough strength left to roll her eyes, "Let me die, if you have the ability, just kill me..."

"Hahaha! You won't, because you know clearly in your heart, you know I am lying to you. That short-lived ghost Li Meng didn't leave a single word for you at all. Hahaha, you deserve it for having your daughter die!"

"You keeping me alive is just self-deception! Daydreaming! She didn't leave a single word for you! She was slashed seventeen times, hahaha! How could she have been able to speak?"

A large amount of water was poured into her mouth again, and Bai Mo's nose was also pinched shut.

Her consciousness began to blur gradually. In the end, the image in her mind remained Jiang Sinian on the phone screen; the young man's eyes were clear and beautiful, and his love for Jiang Yue seemed ready to overflow.

Yet originally, these eyes had looked at her the same way. Once, she had been so close to happiness.

Unfortunately, in the end, it was nothing more than a reflection of the moon in the water.

He belonged to someone else, and he had likely long forgotten that such a person as her even existed in the world.

Bai Mo knew that the only person she could count on now was Bai Mu.

It was just that, as a woman of her age, she had no real ability without Bai Fu, and she likely wouldn't be of much use.

She would probably just die like this. Actually, dying might be better; these past two years had worn away all her spirit.

But, she was so unwilling. This year, she was only in her twenties.

Even if she had done many wrong things in the past, locking Li Meng outside and leaving her with no way to call for help until she died, she had no choice. If she had opened the door, perhaps they both would have been hacked to death by Kong Nuo.

Li Mu had already tortured her for two full years; wasn't that enough?

The next day, when a ray of morning sun rose, Bai Mo woke up once again.

There was nothing to be happy about in this. Soon, Li Mu arrived, first describing in great detail the wonderful work and life of Jiang Sinian and his sister, and then feeding her a bowl of pitch-black, extremely foul-tasting substance.

In just half an hour, she had tortured both her spirit and her body.

"What I fed you today is a paste made from the corpse of a dead rat." Li Mu looked back at her with a faint smile, "It suits you well."

Bai Mo immediately felt extremely disgusted, her stomach churning with unbearable nausea, yet she could not vomit.

"Wang Shuanghua! You vicious dead woman! To think you made me eat a dead mouse~ *gag*~ Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!"

The room door was slammed shut, and no matter how vicious the cursing was, only Bai Mo herself could hear it.

Not long after, from the window upstairs, came the sound of a few light taps against the glass.

"Big sister? Did your stepmother hit you again?" a little girl asked with sympathy.

After crying for a moment, Bai Mo answered her, "Yes, that vicious stepmother of mine fed me dead mouse meat. *Sob sob sob*, she will definitely torture me to death. Little sister, you must save me!"

"Don't be afraid, big sister," the little girl said, feeling heartbroken, "How about I help you call the police?"

"No!" Bai Mo hurriedly stopped her, "My stepmother is best at putting on a facade; the police won't be of any use if they come. Can you help me contact that person from last time and send her the floor and room number where I live, okay, little sister?"

Previously, Li Mu had hired a nanny for her, and later she had coaxed that nanny into helping her call the police.

But she had no obvious wounds on her body at all, and the police only saw the room filled with expensive luxury goods, so they didn't believe what she said.

"Okay," the little girl agreed crisply.

Bai Mo felt a surge of excitement and urged her again, "Also, remember! You cannot tell anyone else about this, including your family!"

"I will remember!"

Taking advantage of when the nanny at home went to the kitchen to cook, the little girl prepared to secretly use her phone.

She had just started the first grade of elementary school and didn't know many characters.

She only knew that the residential complex they lived in was called Binyuan.

After getting the nanny's phone, the little girl began to fiddle with it, looking for the text message she had sent last time.

"Wenwen?"

In the kitchen, the nanny called her gently, "What are you doing? Have you pooped today?"

"Auntie, I already went to poop just now."

Wenwen was so startled that her hand shook, and she almost dropped the phone on the floor.

She stuck out her tongue and hurriedly lowered her head to continue searching. Fortunately, she soon found the phone number that the big sister had told her last time.

The big sister had said to send the name of their complex and the floor number to that number.

Her home was on the sixteenth floor, and the big sister's home was below her, on the fifteenth floor.

After laboriously editing the text message, she was just about to send it when she was seen by the nanny coming out of the kitchen.

"Wenwen, what are you doing with Auntie's phone?"

After saying this, she felt somewhat displeased; although she was the nanny for this family, taking her phone without her permission was still too annoying.

"Give it back to Auntie."

She stood in front of Wenwen, and Wenwen rolled her eyes, "Sorry, Auntie."

Before returning it to Auntie, she still tapped send.
