The beloved but ungrateful girl is reborn: This time she has truly changed.

The bespectacled nurse stepped forward: "I'll do it."

"Alright, thank you for your hard work. Sign here." The driver pulled out a small notebook.

The bespectacled nurse nodded, signed the form, and said to Qi Weiwei, "Let's go, our mission is complete. Go back and take a shower tonight."

The two jumped off the train.

The driver closed the car door and locked it with a "bang".

Qi Weiwei looked at the closed car door and silently said in her heart: Tang Tiantian, good luck.

.

That evening, Qi Weiwei had just finished showering and was drying her hair with a towel.

A knock came at the door.

"Xiao Ling, are you there?" It was Director Zhao's voice.

Qi Weiwei opened the door.

Director Zhao stood at the door, a smile plastered on his face, but his eyes flickered slightly: "Xiao Ling, something happened at your home. Your cousin has come to pick you up. Pack your things; you might have to go back for a few days!"

Qi Weiwei's heart tightened, but she pretended to be very panicked:

"Huh? What happened? Director Zhao, it's at my home... what's wrong?"

Her voice trembled, and her eyes instantly reddened—this was a trick she had learned from Tang Tiantian.

In her past life, Tang Tiantian had used this tactic countless times in front of Tang Aijun: feigning pitifulness to gain sympathy.

Now that she's using it, it's proven effective.

Director Zhao was immediately taken aback and quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, don't worry, it might not be a big deal. Your cousin is waiting downstairs, go down and ask him quickly."

"Okay, okay, I'll be right there!" Qi Weiwei hurriedly stuffed the things into a cloth bag, not even bothering to zip it up. She loosely tied her hair up and followed Director Zhao downstairs.

Downstairs, the military green jeep was parked on the side of the road.

Ling Heping was leaning against the station when he saw them come out and went to greet them.

"Cousin!" Qi Weiwei ran over, her voice trembling with tears, "What happened at home?"

Ling Heping glanced at her, his eyes offering reassurance, but his tone remained calm: "We'll talk about it when we get back. Get in the car first."

He turned to Director Zhao and said, "Director Zhao, thank you for your help these past few days. I hope my cousin hasn't caused you any trouble while she's here?"

"No, no!" Director Zhao waved his hands repeatedly. "Comrade Xiao Ling is very diligent, everyone likes her! It's just... she has some family matters to attend to, which is a real pity. Once she's settled things at home, she's welcome back anytime!"

"Thank you, Director Zhao." Ling Heping shook hands with him. "Then we'll be going now."

"Take care, take care!"

Qi Weiwei got into the car, and Ling Heping started the car and drove out of the sanatorium gate.

Once the car was on the main road, Qi Weiwei finally let out a long sigh of relief and leaned back in her seat.

"How did it go, Brother Heping?" She turned to look at Ling Heping, her eyes sparkling. "Did you catch her?"

Ling Heping looked ahead, a smile curving his lips: "We caught them, don't worry."

He paused, then began to recount what had happened:

"They left through the back gate, just as I suspected. That big black truck was indeed going to the crematorium in the southern suburbs. But I figured that if Tang Qu wanted to switch the vehicles, he definitely wouldn't let Tang Tiantian actually be taken to the crematorium. So someone would definitely have intercepted the truck on the way."

"Sure enough, about ten miles from the sanatorium, the car was stopped by a small truck on a secluded section of road. A man got out of the truck and showed some documents to the truck driver. After looking at the documents, the driver opened the truck bed and had the man unload Tang Tiantian's stretcher and load it into the truck."

As Ling Heping spoke, he glanced at Qi Weiwei and said, "My men were lying in ambush by the roadside. When the big truck drove away and the small truck was still parked there, we went straight in."

"There's a driver and a rather burly young man in the truck. They're untying the knots binding Tang Tiantian. Guess what Tang Tiantian is doing?"

Qi Weiwei asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Ling Heping laughed, a cold laugh: "She was cursing. She said that a nurse who carried the corpse was too mean and had stuffed some kind of caterpillar into her nostril, making her itch like crazy, and she wanted someone to scratch her. She also said it was a pity that she could only close her eyes and pretend to be dead, otherwise she would remember the nurse's face and scratch her face until it was covered in welts."

Qi Weiwei imagined that scene and couldn't help but smile.

Deserve it.

"Then the burly young man searched for a long time, but there was nothing in her nostrils," Ling Heping continued. "The driver said the knots were too tight to untie, so he could only take her away like this for now and go back to find scissors. Tang Tiantian then started cursing, calling the driver useless, the young man stupid, and the nurses who carried the body immoral."

"Just then, my men rushed in and pinned down the driver and the burly young man. Tang Tiantian heard the commotion and screamed in fright. She tried to get up and run away, but she was tied up so tightly that she couldn't move at all."

Ling Heping's tone softened: "Then, I had them take Tang Tiantian, along with the stretcher and these two people, directly to the police station where Zhang Qingshan's apprentice is the chief! They're all being detained there now."

After hearing this, Qi Weiwei finally felt relieved.

It became.

Tang Tiantian's plan to fake her death and escape has completely failed.

Moreover, the perpetrators were caught red-handed.

"What about Tang Qu?" Qi Weiwei asked. "Does he know?"

"They should know by now," Ling Heping said. "Zhang Qingshan has already sent someone to 'invite' Tang Qu. This time, the evidence is conclusive—faking his death, forging a medical certificate, bribing sanatorium staff, attempting to help a prisoner escape... He's in for a lot of trouble. Now, it's up to Zhang Qingshan's apprentice to talk to Tang Qu."

Qi Weiwei nodded without saying anything.

She watched the scenery rushing past the car window.

The winter fields are bare, desolate, but also clean.

Just like her heart.

The filth, squalor, and suffocating things from her past life are being cleansed away little by little.

Tang Tiantian has been arrested.

Tangqu is going to be in trouble.

Tang Aijun... can't escape either.

Qi Weiwei clenched her fist.

almost.

It's almost over.

"Weiwei," Ling Heping's voice rang in her ears, "Go back and get some rest. There may be some tough battles ahead."

Qi Weiwei turned to look at him.

Ling Heping's profile looked particularly resolute in the twilight.

His hands were steady on the steering wheel, and his eyes were fixed on the road ahead, like a mountain—reliable and dependable.

"I know," Qi Weiwei said softly, "I'm not afraid."

She's really not afraid.

In her past life, she was foolish, cowardly, and easily manipulated, ultimately causing the deaths of all her relatives.

In this life, she is awake, she is ruthless, she has people to protect, and nothing can break her.

No matter how difficult it is, she is not afraid.

The car sped through the twilight, heading towards the city of Beijing.

The car headlights pierced the darkness, illuminating the road ahead.

Just like her life.

It was once pitch black, but now, there is light.

She will follow this light and keep walking.

The day will come when all our enemies pay the price.

May we reach the day when all our family members are safe and happy.

She will reach the day when she can truly live for herself with peace of mind.

Ling Heping handed her a handkerchief, and Qi Weiwei realized that she was already in tears.
