I snagged a bargain in a melodramatic novel and became incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 117: Angry and vomiting blood

"A man from a humble background is a man from a humble background; why make so many excuses?"

"If other people's biological parents don't leave their precious daughter their inheritance, are they going to leave you, an ungrateful wretch?"

Cai Yi had somehow climbed in through the window and stood next to Ren Tangyi, mocking Li Huai.

Li Yue's face was full of arrogance: "Who are you? This is our family matter, it's none of your business to make decisions!"

Caiyi rolled her eyes and launched an indiscriminate attack: "You say he's your own brother? What kind of brother and sister are so close? If I didn't know better, I'd think you were your brother's wife."

Li Yue's pale face flushed slightly from Cai Yi's sharp words.

Looking at her, Caiyi spoke again: "Judging from your appearance, you'd better not get angry."

"Don't let me get so angry that your own brother will come after me!"

Cai Yi emphasized the words "older brother" so much that Li Yue trembled with anger but couldn't utter a single word.

Cai Yi continued, "Also, look at how sickly you are. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were Lin Daiyu reincarnated."

"They cry all day long, aren't they afraid that one day they'll cry themselves out and die?"

Cai Yi's words were like knives, piercing Li Yue's heart.

Her eyes widened, tears welled up in them, and her lips trembled with anger, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

Seeing this, Li Huai quickly stepped forward to help Li Yue up, glaring angrily at Cai Yi: "Don't go too far!"

As he spoke, he looked at Ren Tangyi, who was silent beside him: "Is this your friend? She really has no manners, meddling in other people's family affairs so casually!"

Ren Tangyi raised her eyes, her gaze utterly silent: "This isn't a family matter; we're getting a divorce."

Li Huai's face turned ashen: "Just because of a single doctor?"

Ren Tangyi: "Yes."

Li Huai: "You're a stay-at-home mom without a job, how will you survive after your divorce?"

"You won't get custody of the child!"

"If we divorce, you'll have to leave with nothing!"

Ren Tangyi: "Don't worry about it. The child is under two years old, so custody will be awarded to the mother."

“All your assets are marital property, and I own half of them.”

"If you have a weak understanding of the law, read more books and don't let your knowledge be clouded by empty promises."

Li Yue angrily shouted at Li Huai, "Brother, I already said she should die in the fire, but you wouldn't listen!"

"Now look what's happened! She's got a sharp tongue and wants a divorce to divide the assets!"

Li Huai frowned, a hint of displeasure in his sister's tone, but he didn't say much, after all, she was his beloved sister whom he had doted on and protected since childhood.

Upon hearing this, Cai Yi smiled disdainfully: "What? Did Ren Tangyi say something wrong? You two siblings are really birds of a feather, both selfish and self-serving people."

After saying that, she took Ren Tangyi's hand, turned around, and quickly left.

Li Yue stomped her foot in anger and chased after them, then shouted at the security guard downstairs, "Stop them! It doesn't matter if they get hurt!"

Caiyi looked down at the numerous bodyguards in black below, her eyebrows furrowing slightly; she couldn't defeat them.

Turning around, he saw Li Yue looking smug, and Cai Yi smiled slightly.

He said to Ren Tangyi, "Hold the child close and stay by my side."

Li Yue looked at Cai Yi walking towards her in horror, and instinctively wanted to run into her brother's arms behind her.

Unfortunately, how could a rich young lady in high heels possibly outrun the wealth of those in sneakers?

Caiyi grabbed her loose hair and pulled her sharply, causing her to fall towards him.

"what--"

Li Yue screamed, the sound almost piercing the eardrums of those inside the room.

Cai Yi, however, remained expressionless and continued to pull her hair forcefully, dragging her in front of him.

"Let me go...it hurts so much!" Li Yue cried out, her eyes filled with fear and pain.

"What are you yelling for? If you yell again, believe me, I'll rip your tongue out!" Cai Yi threatened viciously.

Li Yue was so frightened that she immediately shut her mouth and dared not make a sound.

"Listen up, all of you! If anyone dares to move, I'll slash her face!" Cai Yi pointed at Li Yue and said to the bodyguards around him.

A rich young lady like her must cherish her appearance.

Although the bodyguards were numerous, they dared not make any rash moves in the face of such a fierce and greedy man.

After all, Li Yue is the Li family's precious daughter, and they dare not let her get hurt, otherwise they, the bodyguards, would be the ones to suffer.

Ren Tangyi stood nervously to the side, holding her child, watching Cai Yi's actions.

Cai Yi turned to look at Ren Tangyi and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, we'll be out soon."

After saying that, she turned her head again to face Li Yue.

"How about that? Are you scared now?" Cai Yi sneered.

Li Yue was so frightened that she trembled all over, and tears kept flowing down her face.

"What...what are you trying to do?" she asked, trembling.

"I'm not going to do anything, I'm just going to let you experience what it's like to be bullied." Cai Yi said, increasing the pressure on his hands.

Li Yue's face was contorted in pain, and she couldn't help but sob, pleading, "I'm sorry... I was wrong... please let me go..."

"Hmph, you only realize your mistake now? Too late!" Cai Yi said mercilessly.

At this moment, Ren Tangyi stepped forward and said softly, "Let's forget it, let's go."

Cai Yi glanced at Ren Tangyi, then at the child in her arms, and finally let go.

She never intended to hurt Li Yue; she just wanted to use her to get out of the Li family villa.

"You're lucky this time. Your good sister-in-law had to plead for you," Caiyi said with a smile, looking at Li Yue, who was already terrified.

Li Yue collapsed to the ground, her body trembling so much she couldn't utter a single word.

Cai Yi took Ren Tangyi's hand and quickly left the villa with the child.

Li Huai and a group of bodyguards were left standing there, still in shock.

After Li Yue came to her senses, she screamed, "You bunch of useless trash!"

"We spent so much money and couldn't even catch two people!"

Li Yue called out to the back, but her weak body couldn't take it, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, scaring the surrounding bodyguards into retreating.

Fearing that she might try to extort money from them, no one dared to help her up.

Li Huai snapped out of his daze, hurriedly picked up his sister, and rushed to the hospital.

She hated Ren Tangyi with a vengeance and became even more determined to invite Dr. Shan to treat her sister's illness.

These are things that Cai Yi and Ren Tangyi, who have already returned to Linhe Hospital, are unaware of.

Cai Yi looked at Ren Tangyi's haggard face and said, "If you have money, you should hire a bodyguard."

"After all, I can't always get there in time."

Ren Tang nodded as he recalled what had happened in the past two days.

The divorce will result in Li Huai taking half of his assets; who knows what other trouble that mother and daughter will cause.

She's alright, but she has a child.

Caiyi recommended some retired soldiers to her. These people were exceptionally skilled and could easily deal with Caiyi's seemingly incompetent bodyguards.
