I Transmigrate as a Single Mother of the Three Antagonists

Chapter 81: Memories

His coughing soon stopped.

“This medicine is truly effective!”

The inmate, who had just escaped death, started dancing and shouting. His recovery made everyone instantly recognize the effects of the drug.

When everyone saw this, they picked up the pills in front of them and hurriedly swallowed them.

As expected, the sound of coughing in the cafeteria disappeared.

The crowd’s excited behavior was a sore sight for Wei Shuo.

“Go ahead and take it. Who knows what side effects this medicine will have. When the time comes, you’ll know how evil this woman is!”

Wei Shuo shouted indignantly.

But this time, no one believed him.

In the face of life, they all chose to cling tightly to Qiu Tong, this life-saving miracle.

Qiu Tong was engulfed by everyone’s adoring gazes. They all expressed their heartfelt gratitude to Qiu Tong. Even Qiu Rong’s prestige and status among the prisoners had increased.

The prisoners who bullied Qiu Rong before felt especially awkward and guilty. They all came over to apologize to him one after another. Apart from Wei Shuo, the entire canteen was filled with joy and harmony.

Qiu Rong stared blankly at his daughter, who appeared very different from before. He was a bit lost in thought.

He already felt that his daughter’s character had changed a lot, but he did not expect her to be able to handle such a situation with ease.

Qiu Tong did not see the conflicted look in Qiu Rong’s eyes. She managed to escape the adoring crowd and dragged her father aside to eat.

Wei Shuo looked at Qiu Tong, who was now the center of attention. He exuded an indignant aura.

When he thought about how he had been humiliated in front of everyone, how he had been completely subdued by a mere woman, the anger in his heart burned even more fiercely.

He would never let these two people off!

Wei Shuo called a few of his followers and walked towards Qiu Rong and Qiu Tong.

However, he had only taken two steps when he felt a sharp pain in his stomach and a wave of dizziness in his head. His body swayed twice before he suddenly knelt on the ground and started coughing violently.

Wei Shuo’s situation instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

“Oh no, Boss is coughing up blood!”

One of Wei Shuo’s lackeys cried out in alarm when he saw the bloodstains on the ground.

The rest of Wei Shuo’s gang scattered in all directions.

The way he coughed was exactly the same as when those infected people had their relapses.

“Wei Shuo is infected too. Everyone, stay away from him!”

“Yeah, I was just talking to him earlier. Would I get infected again by him?”

“That won’t happen. Didn’t you hear what Miss Qiu said just now? After we take the medicine, our bodies will develop antibodies and we won’t be infected again!”

“Yes, yes, yes. Luckily, Miss Qiu is here. Otherwise, we would be in danger.”

“Wei Shuo is the only one now whose health is in critical condition. It seems that he’s the only one who didn’t take the medicine.”

Everyone moved further away from Wei Shuo.

When Wei Shuo heard their discussion, his blood surged so violently that he nearly fainted.

Qiu Tong watched the whole process calmly from her chair.

This was human nature. At critical moments, humans could surpass all imagination, and yet also behave entirely within expectations.

“Dad, eat more fish.”

Qiu Tong looked away as if she didn’t want to see Wei Shuo’s miserable state. She placed a piece of fish meat in Qiu Rong’s bowl.

When Wei Shuo saw Qiu Tong’s cold manner, he felt the pain in his body reach its peak.

He knew that once he got infected, he would not be far from death. He looked at the other prisoners who had recovered and knew that this medicine would definitely be effective.

Although he was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to stumble over and lower his head towards Qiu Tong.

“Miss Qiu, please give me the medicine.”

Qiu Tong glared at him coldly, her expression unchanged as she listened to him gritting his teeth.

“My medicine hasn’t been tested in any way. It might have side effects.”

“I think a high and mighty person like you would definitely not want to use such drugs.”

Wei Shuo understood the sarcasm in Qiu Tong’s words and felt extreme regret in his heart. For the sake of protecting his own life, he had no choice but to humble himself further.

“Miss Qiu, I’m sorry. It was my fault just now. I was talking nonsense. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“Please forgive me and give me a way out.”

“I promise that I will never cause trouble for your father again. I will be very respectful to him and will not offend him at all.”

Qiu Tong nodded. That was what she’d been waiting for.

After she left, her father would be all alone. Although she was prepared to offer compensation in return for a reduction in his jail sentence, she did not know how long it would take. Hence, she had to find a guarantee for her father’s safety.

“Remember what you said. Otherwise, I can take back your life anytime.”

Qiu Tong tossed the medicine into Wei Shuo’s hands, her eyes filled with a murderous aura.
