I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

"The phone is ringing!"

"The phone is ringing!"

"The phone is ringing!"

A fair hand emerged from the soft, white blanket, groping aimlessly for a long time without finding anything.

She suddenly jumped out of bed, opened her sleepy eyes with her hands, looked up, and searched for her phone.

Oh, it's under the bed.

She closed her eyes, lowered her head, reached for her phone under the bed, and answered, "Hello~"

Caiyi, still half-asleep, had a soft, sweet voice with a seductive quality.

"Cough cough."

Xu Qingming coughed twice, trying to wake her from her drowsy state.

Unfortunately, it was useless.

"Wealth intention".

He ignored their desire for wealth.

"Wealth intention".

Xu Qingming emphasized the sound.

Caiyi frowned, her little face scrunched up, and she didn't open her eyes yet: "Huh?"

"Xiao Baihua has been arrested."

After Xu Qingming finished speaking, he waited silently.

She regained consciousness in just three seconds.

Caiyi: "What the hell?"

Xu Qingming: "Xiao Baihua has been captured by Zongchai, and the story is unfolding."

Cai Yi: "Where is Wei Yan?"

Wasn't he following Xiao Baihua?

Xu Qingming's gentle and calm gaze fell on the monitor: "Follow the plot."

Caiyi: "..."

That means they're being controlled.

Where is Xiao Baihua?

Caiyi asked, "Logically speaking, the innocent girl shouldn't be so soft-hearted as to be led astray."

Xu Qingming pinched the bridge of his nose: "She's been tied up."

Caiyi: "Damn it!"

Xu Qingming: "..."

Cai Yi abruptly hung up the phone and headed straight for the Zong family hospital.

This bastard dares to kidnap people right now!

She can't stand this bastard for even a day longer.

Zongjia Hospital, fifth floor.

Cai Yi arrived just in time; Xiao Baihua was only tied to the hospital bed and hadn't had her heart removed yet.

Xiao Baihua thought that she would never love again.

Falling in love is exhausting, both mentally and physically, leaving you feeling completely worn out.

She stared silently at the hospital lights, her eyes unfocused. Perhaps it was for the best; maybe she was dead, and it would all be over.

She didn't want to be threatened anymore...

Cai Yi dragged Wei Yan, who was standing at the door, inside, and what she saw was Xiao Baihua with a sacrificial expression.

She released Wei Yan, who fell to the ground with a thud.

She ignored her and went up to slap Xiao Baihua hard across the face: "Do you want to die? Before you die, did you think about your parents? Your father has a heart condition. If you die, Uncle Xiao will have a heart attack from your actions and go to the underworld to join you."

"He called me when he was in the car accident, his will to live was so strong, how come he's such a useless piece of trash now?"

Cai Yi, furious at her lack of self-control, untied her ropes: "If you're going to die, you'll die after your parents, after this contract, you hear me?"

Xiao Baihua touched her face, the pain in her cheek causing her inner grief and indignation to erupt.

She wailed and hugged Caiyi tightly, as if she were clinging to her last straw.

"He threatened me with my parents, what could I do?"

"I am afraid!"

"Wow wow wow——"

Cai Yi's face flushed red, her black eyes almost rolling back. She used all her strength to slap Xiao Baihua.

Xiao Baihua let go in pain, her bright and beautiful eyes shining. She sniffed, looking very aggrieved.

Why did you hit me?

Cai Yi gasped for breath, his voice uneven, "You...you're trying to strangle me!"

Only then did Xiao Baihua notice her flushed face. Embarrassed, she patted Caiyi's back and murmured, "I'm sorry..."

"You, don't you trust me? Don't you trust your family? It's so easy for your family to protect someone."

Caiyi dialed Xiao's mother's number on her mobile phone, with the speakerphone on.

Xiao's mother was a little worried. Had something happened to Hua Hua?

Why was it Caiyi who called her? She had never called them before.

As she pondered this, a hint of unease crept into Xiao's voice: "Caiyi, is... something wrong with Huahua?"

Cai Yi didn't say anything, but handed the phone to Xiao Baihua.

Xiao Baihua wiped away her tears, suppressing the trembling in her voice: "Mom, I'm fine."

Mrs. Xiao: "...It's good that you're alright. Just take good care of yourself. The most important thing for you two is that you stay safe and sound."

No one knows a child better than their mother. How could she not tell? But the child didn't want her to worry, so she didn't point it out.

The two chatted for a long time, until they talked about Zongchai's return.

Xiao Baihua was a little flustered. She lowered her voice and said, "Mom, I have something to do here. I'll call you back later."

Xiao's mother: "Okay, take good care of yourself."

Zong Chai glared at Cai Yi with an unfriendly expression: "What, it's you again?"

Caiyi gave him the middle finger.

Zongchai didn't understand what it meant, but he could tell from Caiyi's expression.

His eyes were cold, and his tone was indifferent: "Xiao Baihua, think about your parents before you do anything."

Xiao Baihua's face turned pale, her fingers clenched tightly, her knuckles turned white, and a warm, sticky sensation appeared on the back of her hand.

She looked down and saw Caiyi's warm little hand covered in sticky pear juice. She looked up at Caiyi.

Caiyi held a pear in one hand and ate it, the juice splashing out of the plump, juicy pear blocking the fierce-looking Zongchai.

Zongchai hesitated, watching as Caiyi's every bite of pear resulted in a splash of juice onto him, and then he made a decision—

Stay away from her.

I don't know how she managed to spray a mouthful of pear juice in his direction every time she took a bite of the pear.

Zong Chai's sharp brows revealed obvious impatience: "Xiao Baihua, I don't have the energy to coax you. Baiyue is still unconscious."

She needs your heart, and you have no choice but to give it to her. Before you do, think of your parents.

He threatened.

Xiao Baihua subconsciously looked at Cai Yi.

Caiyi took her phone and said irritably, "Didn't you just call your mother? She's fine and has her family protecting her. You're worrying too much."

Xiao Baihua felt reassured and struggled to get out of bed to help Wei Yan, who was frozen on the ground.

Zong Chai then noticed that there was a fourth person in the ward. He pursed his thin lips and pinched his brow: "Xiao Baihua, that's enough. I only consider Baiyue my younger sister."

You brought a man into your room, did you even consider me? I'm your boyfriend!

Towards the end, his tone became angry.

Xiao Baihua: "..."

She just wanted to free Wei Yan from the control of the plot, but didn't know how, so she thought of helping her up first.

Wei Yan's mind was in complete disarray. This was the first time he had ever experienced what Ming Ge had described as the feeling of being controlled by the plot.

This is really annoying!

Zong Chai looked at Xiao Baihua, who remained silent, and laughed hysterically: "So you admit it, huh? As expected, Yue'er was right, you've never loved me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zong Chai lunged at Xiao Baihua with a ferocious expression.

The next second, the person collapsed to the ground as if having an epileptic seizure.

"waste!"

Caiyi rolled her eyes and put away the small, exquisite stun gun in her hand.

Xiao Baihua: "..."

Wei Yan stared at the stun gun in Cai Yi's hand that looked familiar, and subconsciously asked, "Where did you get this?"

Caiyi chuckled, his round, bright black eyes darting away from his gaze.

Wei Yan touched her body and, sure enough, the stun gun was gone.
