Chapter 62: Chapter 62: The Heart Has Turned Completely Black

Sun Lijuan was also overjoyed, and her brothers wanted to share the money, so they all agreed to go. Sun Lijuan originally wanted to go with them, but unfortunately, she was weak and constantly bleeding, struggling to get out of bed, so she had to give up.

"Mom, give her a good beating before sending her into the mountains!" Sun Lijuan instructed.

"Don’t worry!" Zhao Xiuxia sneered, "Those two brothers are not good people, they’ll definitely make her suffer! Let her be arrogant, not willing to marry Zhou Jinzhu, now she’ll spend her whole life in the mountains!"

Thinking of the life that Sun Chan would endure for the coming decades, she was extremely excited and happy; a wild child abandoned by the well, totally undeserving of a good life!

Zhao Xiuxia, along with the brothers, headed back in a grand manner, her mother was bound to see her, wasn’t she? As long as they lured her out, they could directly put her into a sack and send her to the mountains.

But who knew, when they arrived, the main gate was tightly shut, not letting them in.

"The leadership has instructed that after this big incident, any visiting family members must have permission from the person inside before they can let them in. Sun Chan won’t come out to see you."

Zhao Xiuxia slapped her thigh in anger: "What’s going on! I’m the wretch’s real mother, and I’m not allowed to meet her! Such an ungrateful child! Tell her to get out, I’ve raised her for nothing for years? You’re just a gatekeeper, why put on airs, hurry up and let Sun Chan out or I won’t leave!"

The guard sneered, "She doesn’t want to see you, what’s it got to do with me? Better leave, or we’ll call the police! This place is full of senior leaders, it’s not a place for you to make trouble!" After saying that, the person walked away. They even tried to use the village tricks of being shameless!

Seeing the person leave, Zhao Xiuxia and the others dared not curse. If they really got taken by the police, it would be troublesome.

Zhao Long started smoking again, "If you had come to us from the start, this wouldn’t have happened. Now, who knows how long it will take to find her. Plus, I heard things are getting stricter, those involved in trafficking are scared. They say they’re being shot if caught. Keep dragging it on, and no one will dare to buy."

Zhao Xiuxia felt a tightness in her chest, sat on the ground, and cried. What is this! That little wretch is fine, but her precious daughter was ruined, and now two thousand is just at hand yet out of reach, so frustrating and infuriating.

When Sun Chan woke up, her hands hurt, and she was sweating profusely, dreaming of being beaten and scolded by Zhou Jinzhu in her past life, the despair and sorrow were vividly clear. Although she couldn’t move, her mind was very clear, constantly reminding herself never to return to her old path!

She opened her eyes to see Yang Liu looking at her with red eyes, holding her hand tightly upon seeing her awake.

Sun Chan looked at Yang Liu with gratitude; she really was a good person. Then she saw the hospital’s director behind her, looking at her displeasedly, but due to Mr. Yan and Yan Kai’s presence, he didn’t dare to say something.

Mr. Yan said, "Are you alright?"

Sun Chan hurriedly said, "It’s because of the leader..."

"Just lie down!" Mr. Yan waved his hand, frowning slightly, "I heard from Yan Kai that those people want to sell you?"

"Yes, I want to resign and leave here as soon as possible."

"No way!" The director quickly said, "You’re doing well, why resign?"

He knew that the old Sir Yan cared for this little girl, at the start he really wanted to fire Sun Chan, but seeing the Yan family’s attitude now, he absolutely couldn’t do so, otherwise people would think him selfish.

Sun Chan gave a bitter smile, "You don’t understand my stepmother and sister, they will definitely come back and make trouble, continue selling me for money, Zhou Jinzhu doesn’t want me, they can sell me to the mountains for more money." In her past life, she heard about what kind of place Xiong’er Ridge was.

Zhao Xiuxia often scolded her when she was young, "You just eat and do no work, be careful, I’ll sell you to Xiong’er Ridge!"

The terrain there is remote, surrounded by mountains. Once someone is sold there, it’s hard to get out, and the local customs are fierce, completely ignorant of law and discipline. They think beating their wives is okay, if they die, just bury them and find another. So, ever since the village was established hundreds of years ago, countless girls disappeared in the mountains, becoming wrongful spirits.

In her past life, she agreed to marry Zhou Jinzhu quickly, fearing being sold into the mountains.

Yang Liu trembled with rage, "What era is it, and things like this still happen! It’s outrageous!"

Sun Chan bit her lip, "The price they offer is high, my stepmother won’t give up."

The director looked back at Yan Kai, though the old Mr. Yan was dignified, the one with actual power was Yan Kai.

Even though Yan Kai was meeting Sun Chan for the first time, he had heard her name several times before. Earlier, the old Sir Yan mentioned her several times over the phone, about that rainy day and the confrontation with Bai Fanglan.

"This little girl may seem delicate, but deep inside she’s extraordinarily stubborn, with a strong backbone! It’s just a pity she hasn’t studied much, if there’s a chance, she should be helped."

So when he saw Sun Chan arguing with those two coercers this time, Yan Kai didn’t find her rude; instead, he felt the girl had character.

Now hearing Sun Chan wanted to leave, he frowned, "You want to leave just because those people are after you?"

Sun Chan nodded, "My stepmother, though widowed, has many brothers on her side, so no one dares to bully her. This time, after a spat with them, they’ll definitely come back with others. I can’t hide here forever; they’ll catch me eventually. I can only leave."

Yan Kai said, "And then? Where do you plan to go? Are you going to spend your life running from them, abandoning your job because of them?"

Sun Chan didn’t speak, fleeing from the village to the town was no good, nor was fleeing to X City. Should she flee to the provincial capital, or another province?

What if she encountered familiar people who searched her out again?

Yet if she didn’t leave, and those people continued to cause trouble at the sanatorium, catching her off guard and seizing her... Zhao Xiuxia showed no humanity towards her.

Yang Liu also said, "You can’t leave, it’s not your fault, why should you leave?"

"But I don’t want the fights because of me to affect the sanatorium’s work."

Yan Kai frowned, "This isn’t just about you, it’s been years since the founding of New China, and there’s still human trafficking. This trend needs to be curbed! I won’t allow it, I’ll speak to my comrades here, just don’t concern yourself with this issue anymore."

Yan Kai elevated the issue to a new level. It’s not just personal grievances but a serious social problem!
