Chapter 840: Chapter 824: How Could They Treat Her Like This Chapter 840: Chapter 824: How Could They Treat Her Like This Locking someone inside, are they trying to starve someone to death?
Or perhaps die of thirst, even Ren Li and in the past Wu Liangliang were nowhere to be seen, could it be that they really intend to starve someone to death?
And she wants to speak but dares not, wants to ask but also doesn’t dare to.
Maybe she should call the police?
The maid’s mind was all over the place, and ever since the knocking began, she had been considering doing just that.
Ren Father’s eyes suddenly darted her way, then narrowed, and the maid couldn’t help but feel her scalp tingle, before she went back to wiping tables and chairs, the sound of Ren Li pounding at the door ringing in her ears.
That thump thump of the pounding, almost as if it wasn’t hitting the door but smashing against one’s heart.
Open the door, open the door for me, you all hurry and open the door, Ren Li kicked the door forcefully, she ran to the window, intending to escape through it, even if it was from the second floor, or the third, she would jump.
If a person is really pushed to the brink, there is nothing they wouldn’t do.
Especially since she really didn’t know what the Ren Family was planning to do, what they wanted to do to her, or to her Chengcheng…
She yanked the window open, only to find out that there was a protective net already nailed outside the window, made of steel bars, with her hand barely able to fit through, let alone her whole body.
She ran back to the door, her hands pounding forcefully against it.
“Dad, open the door, I beg you, let me out.”
“I’m begging you, I’ve never asked you for anything in my life, the wrongs you did to me in the past, I don’t even want to mention, I don’t want to hold grudges, I just want to take my son and leave, please dad, give us a way out, okay?”

Ren Father’s eyes reddened, and his fists were clenched tight, he heaved a forceful sigh, then got up and walked towards that door blocked by the sofa.He stood there, but his hands did not move, his feet also came to a stop.
Lily, this time please forgive dad, but rest assured, Chengcheng won’t come to any harm, once this matter is over, even if dad has to kneel to ask for your forgiveness, I am willing.
His eyes reddened as he listened to the banging sounds from the inside, eventually he gritted his teeth, steeled his heart and left the place, out of sight, out of mind.
The maid snuck a few glances for a long time, not until Ren Father went out did she pat her chest, feeling uncomfortable all over, maybe it’s just that this Ren Family makes one uncomfortable, should she find another place to work, just in case the Ren Family does something outrageous, surely they couldn’t involve her in it, right?
She wiped her hands on her apron and then went out to find Ren Father.
“Mr.
Ren, something has suddenly come up at home, I was wondering if I could take a few days off?” she asked cautiously, afraid that Ren Father might disagree, forcing her to stay, in case something really happened to the Ren Family, wouldn’t she be implicated as well.
Ren Father, being an experienced man, clearly understood the maid’s intentions.
“If you want to go, then go.”
He didn’t oppose the idea; after all, the fewer people who knew about this, the better.
It was still preferable to trust members of his own family, as this was not exactly an honorable affair.
With each additional person who knew, the danger increased, so he accepted the situation as it was.
“Thank you, Mr.
Ren,” the nanny quickly wiped her hands on her body, ready to pack her belongings and leave immediately.
Meanwhile, inside, Ren Li continued pounding on the door, still crying and screaming.
Her voice had already broken from all the shouting, yet she kept knocking.
No matter how much she pounded, how much commotion she caused, how much she screamed or begged, the door remained steadfastly unopened, and not a single soul outside responded to her.
“If a single hair is missing from my son, I will kill all of you!”
Ren Ying suddenly screamed shrilly.
Ren Family’s father’s back tensed abruptly, cold sweat soaking his forehead.
He didn’t know if he was in the wrong, nor whether regret was of any use.
Now caught in a difficult position, all he could do was wait, endure, and continue to keep Ren Li locked up.
Inside, Ren Li lay prostrate on the floor, her lips chapped, her eyes painfully sore, yet her eyeballs were bloodshot.
She moved the corners of her mouth and ended up tearing the skin, ripping open wounds.
“How could you do this to me, how could you…”
She lay on the ground, her hair disheveled, her clothes wrinkled, and her face splotched with misery.
Ɲονǥᴑ.сᴑ
She regretted, yes, she was filled with regret.
Why didn’t she believe what Tang Yuxin had told her?
Why had she blindly pursued the so-called kinship?
If they had really cared about this kinship, they wouldn’t have done what they did, justifying their actions to live untroubled.
How could these parents exist, how could such a sister exist?
Yes, how could there be such relatives in this world.
She was not like Tang Yuxin and never could grasp what Yuxin understood: that apart from having a good father and sister, there could also be a bad sister.
The misfortunes that befell Tang Yuxin in her past life were such that some might not even believe if told.
And indeed, Ren Li was the type who wouldn’t turn back until she hit the south wall, and even then, she wouldn’t stop until she was battered and bleeding profusely.
So now she was bleeding from her head, half a life already gone.
What’s worse, she had no idea what the Ren Family intended to do.
What else could they do?
They were fixated merely on that faint blood relation, which also happened to be Wu Liangliang’s lifesaving medicine.
Outside, Ren Family’s father stood rigidly, seemingly aging much in a moment.
Even the hair at his temples seemed to have turned stark white overnight.
At this moment, Ren Ying sat across from Su Haoran.
She looked up at Su Haoran, how is it, are we set?
Wu Bin looked as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders, but she didn’t trust it.
She needed to hear Su Haoran’s confirmation herself.
She clenched her hands tightly, also waiting for the final outcome.
Would it be Heaven or Hell, were at the mercy of a single thought.
If Tang Xincheng turned out to be no good, then she truly would be left without any options and would have to watch her son die, her lifelong hopes dissipating without fruition.
But if Tang Xincheng turned out to be useful, even if it meant killing Tang Xincheng, it wouldn’t matter to her at all.
He wasn’t her son; she wouldn’t feel the pain.
What she feared was exactly what might come out of Su Haoran’s mouth: that Tang Xincheng wasn’t suitable or was only a marginal match, barely usable – a desperate measure fraught with danger.
She couldn’t tolerate such a risk.
“Don’t worry,” Su Haoran pulled open his drawer and took out a document, placing it in front of Ren Ying, “This just came out, Wu Bin hasn’t seen it yet; you’re the first one.
Last time I said it was a possibility, but this time it’s certain.”
