Chapter 4: Break her Legs, and I’ll Forgive Her

Translator: Lonelytree 

Wrecked by guilt, Mo Yi decided to adopt Qiao Qing and raised her as his own.

After Qiao Qing grew up, she realized that her parents did not have an accident because of work.

​​ 

Through some digging, Qiao Qing found out that her parents had left early that day because they had embezzled company funds and were trying to escape with it. They met with an accident halfway and died.

Qiao Qing was worried that once the real reason behind her parents’ death was exposed, she would lose her footing at Mo Family and thus a life of luxury, so she destroyed all the evidence of her parents’ embezzlement.

She also overheard that Mo Yi was going to send her to study abroad when she was 18, she was worried that her position would be threatened.

That was why she had to ruin the relationship between Mo Li and her family, hoping that she could replace the position of Mo Family’s only daughter.

Mo Li knew from reading the original novel that this Qiao Qing was a two-faced bitch. She originally wanted to marry Mo Zheng, but after Mo Zheng became disabled, she abandoned him. At the same time, by chance, she found out the real identity of the male lead.

Hence, she quickly changed her target.

It was only after Mo Li recognized the bitchiness within Qiao Qing that the two gradually distanced themselves from each other. It became a tug of war between the 2 daughters of Mo Family. However, Mo Li was too immature and wore her emotions too openly to deal with Qiao Qing’s underhanded tactics. Qiao Qing was always able to make herself the victim.

Mo Li’s open hostility towards Qiao Qing only made Mo Family favor this adopted daughter more and more. This was especially true with Mo Zheng, who seemed to treat Qiao Qing, instead of Mo Li, as his own sister.

In fact, the origin of this quarrel that led to the accident was Qiao Qing. Mo Li felt that Mo Zheng only had Qiao Qing in his heart and did not have any place left for his biological sister.

..

Back in the hospital ward, Mo Zheng suddenly opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse and his tone was filled with resentment. “Hah, do you think I will still buy your crap? Now one of my legs is 4 cm shorter than the other, I can’t even walk like a normal person anymore! Your precious daughter has made me a cripple!”

“Zheng ‘Er! Zheng ‘Er! You need to calm down, you can’t be agitated, it’ll hurt your injury…” Mother Mo hurried to comfort her son. The doctor said that the most important thing now was for Mo Zheng to calm down and focus on his convalesce. “This is all my fault, I apologize to you… Please don’t be too hard on yourself.”

“Why would I want your apology? Where is she? Where is Mo Li? Has she gone into hiding while her parents came to clean up her mess? Fine, you want me to calm down? Break her legs, then I’ll calm down.”

“Zheng ‘Er, she’s your biological sister, she’s only 16 years old… You, you have to understand…”

Mother Mo was sobbing so hard that she could not breathe. She could not even speak properly.

Mo Yi looked at his agitated youngest son and shouted, “That’s enough, Mo Zheng! You’re a man, why are you so concerned about your appearance? Don’t push your mother like that, and don’t blame your sister.”

“Of course, this is all my fault. I’m pushing mother, I’m blaming her. I’m the one who is wrong. I shouldn’t have been in a car accident. God forbid if something should happen to your precious daughter. I’m sorry to have been born a boy. In fact, I’m sorry that I have been born! That way you could spend more time with your precious daughter!” In his anger, Mo Zheng spat and spouted. He was never really dissatisfied because of his parents’ favoritism. But his trauma and injury had caused his emotions to fray.

Mo Yun was worried about his younger brother and did not want this useless argument to continue, “Lil’ Three, mom and dad are wrong but breaking our sister… I mean, Mo Li’s leg isn’t a realistic solution either! We need to calm down first, there has to be a solution. Big brother will handle this. We’ll do right by you.”

Mo Zheng also knew that he was being unreasonable. Even if he destroyed his sister’s leg, his condition would not recover.

Mo Li stood observing everything from the door of the ward.

Mo Zheng’s problem could actually be resolved by lengthening the femur. However, the risk of this surgery was extremely high, and many countries did not advocate it.

The situation should be the same here. Otherwise, with the Mo family’s financial resources and status, Mo Zheng would have already undergone the surgery by now.

In the original novel, Mo Zheng’s leg did not recovered. In the end, he even had to rely on a wheelchair to move around, and understandably his acting career crash landed. Even with the best psychologists could not help pull him out from the trauma.

However, in his gloomy life, there was one person who made him see the only light in life, and that was the female lead in the novel, Qiao Qing!

Mo Li sighed, lowered her head, and looked at her own hands.

Back in the real world, she was referred to as Divine Saint with Holy Hands, a praise for her high success surgery rate. Incidentally, she also had many experience of performing surgeries to correct legs of varying length.

When she was in the graduate school, she mainly focused on the examination of injuries, which was also commonly known as forensic science.

However, after she graduated, she majored in surgery and orthopedics. She was once sent to the emergency department of a top hospital for her internship.

Her degree of professionalism was highly recognized both at home and abroad. Her every surgery was textbook professional!

However, as she studied her flawless and smooth hands, she doubted that she could even hold a scalpel steadily. A femur adjustment surgery would take at least 4 hours. Even by some miracles, they allowed her to perform the surgery, her hands would only fail her by cramping or going numb in the middle of it. That would not win her any points back with Mo Zheng.

Mo Li turned back to study the agitated Mo Zheng. This was not the time for her to enter. The patient’s emotion was too unstable, if she walked in and triggered him… she would only be blamed further.
