From Broken Family to Life Winner: A Reborn Mother's Journey

Bai Xinyue awoke to dizziness and searing pain, only to be met with an insult far worse than any physical agony.

The crowd, which had initially been watching for pure entertainment, now knew—or rather, recognized—that the man involved was Wu Sheng.

Wu Sheng’s previous heroic deeds had been widely reported, and many people had wanted to meet this great hero but never had the chance.

They never imagined they would finally see him by a strange twist of fate, and under such circumstances—while he was being framed by a wicked woman.

Pushing Little Hei was already a heinous crime, but to then try and frame Wu Sheng with false accusations? That was even more unacceptable.

The passionate and indignant crowd blocked Mrs. Bai and Bai Xinyue, preventing them from leaving.

They wanted to verbally tear this villain apart. ’The most venomous heart belongs to a woman,’ they thought. How dare she try to harm a great hero?

The commotion was already huge and had drawn a large number of spectators, and in just a short while, the crowd grew even larger.

The narrow hospital corridor and the adjacent lobby were packed to the brim. People who arrived later didn’t know what was happening, but there were always others eager to explain.

It was a common trait among Huaguo people to gather wherever there was a spectacle, and those who knew the story were more than happy to share it.

In the middle of the crowd, an old man who loved listening to storytellers began recounting the entire incident in a booming, energetic voice.

His telling was captivating and dramatic, full of twists and turns. He clearly laid out the innocence of Little Hei and Wu Sheng, the heroic feat of Wu Sheng saving the boy, and the sheer malice of Bai Xinyue.

More and more people gathered, pushing the hospital’s doctors and nurses to the side. The staff was completely overwhelmed.

Mrs. Bai tried to push her way out of the mob with Bai Xinyue, but it was an arduous struggle. They were cursed and spat at the entire way.

”Shameless! Wicked woman! Ptooey!”

”People like her should be in jail! She should be beaten to death!”

”A pity she only lost one eye. Why didn’t she go blind in both!”

”Think you’re so great ’cause you’re rich? You’re just evil!”

The Bai Family was undeniably wealthy. Normally, being rich was a good thing, but not at a time like this.

Resentment of the wealthy is a sentiment that exists in every era.

Hearing that the Bai Family was rich, this resentment fueled the crowd’s fury. Their curses grew harsher, and eventually, some people couldn’t resist getting physical.

A punch here, a kick there. In such a large crowd, it was easy for people to land a sneaky blow.

The Bai Family’s entourage—who had initially been helping them push through the crowd or following close behind, either out of fear of the family’s influence or because they were acquaintances—retreated or hid as the situation escalated. They no longer dared to get close.

The suitors who had once pursued Bai Xinyue, treating her like a precious treasure, now kept as far away as they possibly could.

Their eyes held not only fear, but also shock.

They were shocked by the scene unfolding before them, shocked by Bai Xinyue’s wickedness, and filled with a lingering sense of dread.

Everyone had retreated, leaving only Mrs. Bai, Sister Li, Bai Xinyue, and the driver.

When Bai Xinyue regained consciousness and saw the scene—the spittle and the verbal abuse—she nearly passed out from pure rage.

In the end, however, she didn’t faint or die from anger. Seeing the situation, she forced herself to endure it.

She immediately made the most logical choice: she pretended to still be unconscious.

She gritted her teeth and bore it, trying to wait out this ordeal, her nails digging so hard into her palms they drew blood.

She thought this was the most humiliating and terrifying thing that could happen, but less than two minutes into her act, the crowd became even more outrageous and started physically attacking them.

Mrs. Bai and the others couldn’t hold them back, and they lost their grip on Bai Xinyue.

Bai Xinyue was struck and pinched several times. It was more than she could bear, and just before she was about to fall to the floor, she had no choice but to ”wake up.”

She didn’t dare let herself fall. If she hit the ground, she might be trampled, crippled, or even killed.

”Get out of my way! Get away! Don’t touch me! You’re all courting death!”

The moment she screamed at them, the crowd saw she was awake and their curses intensified.

”’Don’t touch me,’ she says! Ptooey!”

Someone spat on her again. Bai Xinyue’s hand trembled as she touched the saliva on her face, suffering the greatest humiliation of her life.

”AHH!” Bai Xinyue let out a piercing shriek. Unable to bear it any longer, she tried to lash out, but Mrs. Bai held her in a death grip.

Mrs. Bai held her daughter tightly, trying to shield her.

”You can’t hit them! You can’t...”

’If she hits someone now, it’s over,’ she thought. ’We could really get killed.’

Little Hei’s parents stood at the door of Wu Sheng’s hospital room, watching the scene with immense satisfaction.

Wa Wa Lian stood to one side on his tiptoes. He didn’t say a word, but he clearly felt the same.

Wu Sheng stepped out and glanced at the scene, then motioned to Wa Wa Lian.

”Stop watching. Go disperse the crowd.”

Wa Wa Lian looked at Wu Sheng. ”Now?”

”Yes, go quickly. With this many people packed so tightly, we don’t want an accident to happen.”

Wu Sheng hadn’t expected such a large crowd to gather outside. He certainly hadn’t expected them to start crusading against Bai Xinyue and defending him upon hearing his name.

To be honest, Wu Sheng was completely taken by surprise.

He was stunned. When the initial shock wore off, his eyes grew hot and a warmth spread through his chest.

But as he saw the crowd swelling, he feared the situation would spiral out of control. He immediately ordered Wa Wa Lian—who was still feeling pleased and moved by the display—to intervene.

Hearing Wu Sheng’s words, Wa Wa Lian understood the gravity of the situation and immediately moved forward.

Just then, the police arrived.

In the end, the police, Wa Wa Lian, hospital security, and doctors worked together to disperse the crowd of onlooking patients and their families.

The dispersal was handled in time, and ultimately, no serious incidents occurred.

They left behind Mrs. Bai, Bai Xinyue, and their companions, who were a miserable sight.

The group was covered in dust and filthy spittle from head to toe. Their shoes had been trampled off, and their bare feet were caked with grime and bleeding from scrapes.

With their clothes and hair disheveled and filthy, they looked like refugees fleeing a disaster.

Neither Mrs. Bai in her entire adult life, nor Bai Xinyue in her whole life—not even the driver or Sister Li—had ever been in such a wretched state.

The faces of the driver and Sister Li were a mixture of terror and hatred, their eyes filled with fear.

Mrs. Bai’s face was ashen with rage, and her entire body trembled.

Bai Xinyue was in a similar state, trembling all over with bloodshot eyes. She was dizzy, her head felt like it was splitting open, and her vision swam in and out of focus.

But what tormented her most wasn’t the physical pain, but the humiliation she had suffered.

Bai Xinyue turned to look at Wu Sheng, Su Li, and the others standing in the doorway. Her face twisted for a moment, and just as she was about to say something, her vision went black and she knew no more.

She had fainted from rage, but also because the kick from Wa Wa Lian had been incredibly powerful.

Wa Wa Lian had been holding back his anger for a while. This time, in defense of Little Hei, he had truly been ruthless when he struck.

Wa Wa Lian’s kick had given her a concussion. As fate would have it, he had kicked the side with her good eye, injuring it and affecting her vision.

Although she wasn’t blind, her sight was becoming increasingly blurry.

Losing sight in one eye hadn’t affected her normal life, but this kick changed everything.

Everything looked hazy, as if she had severe myopia.

But someone with severe myopia can still see clearly with glasses; she, however, couldn’t see clearly even when wearing them.

She had received her just deserts for her evil deeds, but not content with her fate, she had continued to stir up trouble. In the end, even her good eye was ruined.

When Bai Xinyue woke up again, her blurry vision nearly scared her to death.

Upon learning that she would now be permanently half-blind, Bai Xinyue truly no longer wanted to live.

This time it wasn’t an act. She genuinely didn’t want to live anymore; she genuinely wanted to commit suicide.

But she couldn’t even do that. She no longer even had the right to take her own life.

In her hospital room, besides the doctors, there were also police officers.
