Grandma Lin quickly climbed to her feet, agile and furious. She said, “Zhenye, look at your good wife. She actually wants to drive me away!”
“I am your mother! I have every right to be in my son’s house!”
Lin Zhenye was helpless when it came to his mother. He knew very well that she held disdain for his wife and child, but he couldn’t do much about it.
Pinching his forehead, Lin Zhenye calmly spoke to his mother, “Please go back for now. We have guest today, and your presence will only cause trouble. I will visit you when I have time tomorrow.”
Fuming with anger, Grandma Lin exclaimed, “So now you have grown wings and won’t take care of your mother anymore?”
“I don’t want to live anymore. All of you are bullying me! What’s the point of me being alive? You all are unfilial children! I won’t let you off even in death!” She howled, sitting on the ground and launching into a torrent of curses.
Lin Zhenye’s family had witnessed her tantrums before and could only wear expressions of resignation and bitterness. They were helpless against her.
As Grandma Lin continued to cry, Nan Yan crouched in front of her. With her pale hand, she offered a fruit knife, saying, “Do you want to commit suicide?
Here’s a knife. Stab it into your heart, and you’ll die within minutes.”
Grandma Lin, amidst her cries, suddenly froze as she looked at the fruit knife being handed to her. Her body trembled, and she exclaimed, “Are you crazy?
Take it away! Quickly, take it away!”
Unperturbed, Nan Yan calmly retrieved the fruit knife, reached into her pocket, and took out a small brown pill.
“If you find using a knife too painful and can’t bring yourself to do it, I have a poisonous pill. It will cause heart failure, and you will die quickly, within ten minutes at most.”
“With consideration for you being Lin Zhiyan’s grandmother, I will gift you one, so you can have your wish fulfilled. How about that?”
Grandma Lin, under the chilling gaze of Nan Yan’s overly cold eyes, felt a
shiver run down her spine. A sense of fear emerged, faintly creeping up within her.
Nan Yan extended her pale hand in front of her, the palm holding a brown pill a poisonous pill that could end her life.
She felt on the verge of breaking down, flailing her hands about. “Go away! I don’t want it! Go away quickly!”
“Zhenye, drive her away. Make her leave quickly!”
“No, that won’t do. I was invited here by Mr. and Mrs. Lin. I haven’t had my meal yet, so I won’t leave.”
Nan Yan, composed and unhurried, held the pill in her hand and casually rotated it in front of Mrs. Lin. “If you don’t want to take it, or if you can’t bring yourself to do it, I have a suggestion. Shall I help you?”
“No… Get away! Go away! Leave quickly!”
Nan Yan’s expression turned cold in an instant. “I hate it when people insult me.”
Suddenly, she reached out and grasped Grandma Lin’s chin, then shoved the pill into her mouth.
With a gentle lift, Grandma Lin swallowed the pill directly.
“Ah! Ah!” Grandma Lin cried out in panic, desperately clutching her own mouth, trying to force the pill out.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t vomit anything out.
“I don’t want to die… Save me… Please, save me…
Grandma Lin lay on the ground in a sorry state and begged Nan Yan for mercy.
“Yanyan, come here.” Nan Yan called out leisurely.
Lin Zhiyan, who had been watching the whole process, had lost her mind.
When she heard Nan Yan calling her, she subconsciously walked towards her.
Nan Yan took out another pill and placed it in Lin Zhiyan’s hand.
“This is the antidote. If you want to save her, give it to her. If you don’t want her to live, throw the antidote away.”
“Don’t worry. After she dies, even if we do an autopsy, we won’t be able to find any problems. We’ll classify her as having heart failure and die a normal death.”
Grandma Lin was almost scared to death. Looking at the antidote in Lin Zhiyan’s hand, she quickly shouted, “Little b * tch, quickly give me the antidote!”
Lin Zhiyan looked at the pill in her hand, then at Nan Yan, and finally at
Grandma Lin. She pursed her lips and took a step back.
“I hate you. You always scold me, curse me, tell me to die, and don’t even allow Mom and Dad to save me. Now that you’re going to die, I don’t want to save you.”
Grandma Lin’s face turned pale. She did not know if it was because of psychological reasons or because the medicine was starting to take effect, but she began to feel a little dizzy. Her heart was still a little stuffy, and she was about to suffocate.
She grabbed her clothes in fear and screamed, “Lin Zhenye! Tell your daughter to give me the antidote!”
Lin Zhenye was silent for a moment before he said, “Mom, Yanyan has the antidote. If I force her, she might destroy it, then you’ll be dead. If you still want to live, please beg her.”
Grandma Lin’s eyes widened as if she did not expect Lin Zhenye to ignore her life and death like this.
She was his biological mother!
He actually dared to treat her like this!
“Yanyan, I was wrong. I won’t scold you anymore. Can you give me the antidote? Grandma is begging you!”
“Yanyan, I don’t want to die yet. Give me the antidote quickly. I swear that I will treat you well and be a good grandmother in the future. Please forgive me once and save me.”
“You know you want to live and not die, but I don’t want to die either. Since you’re so cruel as to curse me, I’ll curse you too and let you die.”
“No, no, no. Grandma doesn’t want to die, and I won’t curse you to die in the future. Quickly save Grandma…”
Grandma Lin felt that the suffocating feeling was getting worse. She opened her mouth to breathe, but it did not seem to alleviate the suffocating feeling. It was as if she had a heart attack, and her chest was hurting more and more.
“Save me… Save me…”
She reached out her hand, begging and pleading with Lin Zhiyan.
It turned out that heart disease was so painful.
She had always believed that Lin Zhiyan would eventually die, and being alive was just a waste of the Lin family’s money.
She wished she had died earlier, so her son could have had another child sooner.
If that child had been a grandson, the Lin family would have had a future.
She had always favored boys and had no fondness for her granddaughter, Lin
Zhiyan.
She would rather spoil her daughter’s son.
She even fantasized about a scenario where Lin Zhenye and his wife didn’t want any more children, and the family’s wealth would be inherited by her daughter’s son.
She couldn’t die!
“Zhiyan, I beg you, please give me the antidote!”
Lin Zhiyan bit her lip. “I can give you the antidote, but you have to swear that you’ll never come to our house to cause trouble again. If you do, I’ll curse you to be hit by a car the moment you step outside. If you’re willing to swear, then I’ll give it to you.”
“Grandma swears that I won’t cause trouble again or curse you. If Grandma does, I will be hit by a car the moment I step outside! Grandma swears!”
Elderly people were often superstitious. After swearing, they would usually be more cautious and restrained.
Lin Zhiyan threw the antidote onto the ground and walked over to Mrs. Lin’s side.
Grandma Lin, finding the antidote on the ground, quickly stuffed it into her mouth, feeling a sense of relief as if she had narrowly escaped a catastrophe.
When she had recovered a bit, she didn’t say a word and hurriedly fled from the Lin family.
Once Grandma Lin had left, Lin Zhenye cautiously asked Nan Yan, “Miss Nan, was that pill really poisonous?”
