My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 589

Chapter 589: Chapter 581: Worth 500 Yuan Chapter 589: Chapter 581: Worth 500 Yuan “Exactly,” the fat man said smugly, starting to whistle again, “To avoid dreaming in the long night, let’s go see Hu Lao Si later, he’s the one who deals in this kind of trade.”

The bald man kept nodding in agreement.

Trading a dead person for a live one, and earning some extra money from it, they were indeed making a fortune today.

“She’s so ugly,” a thin and experienced man said, sizing up the half-dead woman on the ground as if appraising a piece of goods.

“No matter how ugly, she’s still a woman,” the bald man hastily interjected, fearing that they wouldn’t be able to make a sale.

If they had to keep her and she happened to be good-looking, wouldn’t he be the one without a wife now?

But she was so ugly that just the sight of her gaunt face made him nauseous.

...

How could he possibly share a bed with her?

The more he thought about it, the more queasy he felt.

“I know she’s a woman,” Hu Lao Si shot the bald man a look, “I never said she was a man.”

The corner of the bald head twitched, and he held his tongue.

Hu Lao Si contemplated for a while, then held out five fingers.

“Deal.”

“Five thousand?” The bald man’s eyes lit up, “Five thousand yuan could support us for a while, half a year, maybe, and we could find something else to do.”

“You wish.”

Hu Lao Si snorted dismissively.

“Considering her condition, she can only be sold to the hookers in the mountains.

Look at her, if she’s sick and dies on me, I’ll be making a loss.”

“So, five hundred.

Do you sell or not?”

“Five hundred?”

Upon hearing ‘five hundred’, the bald man was almost jumping out of his skin.

“How could it possibly be five hundred?”

Yes, how could it be?

Isn’t it said that the women they bring in can be sold for at least two thousand each?

All women are equal in this trade; how could his be worth only five hundred?

What the hell could he do with five hundred yuan?

The gap between five thousand yuan and five hundred yuan wasn’t merely an extra zero, it was a whole different ball game.

“Only five hundred, take it or leave it.”

If Hu Lao Si had sleeves to roll up, he would have done so and walked away already.

“I’m spending five hundred and taking the risk.

If she drops dead in the meantime, that’s my money down the drain.

She would not die, she would survive.

No matter what adversity she faced, she would fight through.

Meanwhile, at the Tong Family residence, Tong Feng looked livid, as though he wanted to eat the people around him alive.

“Tong Shu, what happened?

I asked you to watch her, and you let her slip?”

“I’m sorry, Grandpa, I don’t know how she managed to run away.”

Tong Shu kept her head low, maintaining an apologetic façade.

This only infuriated Tong Feng more.

He slammed his fist onto the quilt, then picked up the teacup from the table.

If anyone else were standing in front of him right now, he might have hurled the cup at their heads.

“I told you to starve her for a few days, and you still let her escape!”

Tong Feng was furious enough to tear Tong Shu apart right now.

Even if she did escape, the news getting out would result in catastrophic damage to the Tong family, no matter whether people believed it or not.

They couldn’t afford to lose this game of faces.

Tong Shu certainly couldn’t afford it.

“I didn’t do anything,” Tong Shu defended herself with a grimace on her face, “I only let her drink water and barely fed her anything for three days.

How could she have the energy to run away?”

Tong Feng scoffed, “Looks like she played you.

She wasn’t weak, she was just biding her time to escape.”

Tong Shu kept quiet, enduring Tong Feng’s scolding without saying a word.

She continued to put on a remorseful facade, but a hint of a smile curled at the corners of her mouth.

“Grandpa, what should we do now?”

She only asked when Tong Feng’s curses began to lose their vehemence, his rant wearing him down and making his hands and feet go numb.

“She’s probably hiding somewhere right now.”

Tong Feng stood up, his hand slamming vigorously on the table.

“Keep a close eye on the hospital.

If she shows up, you must silence her by any means necessary.

This matter, it could be the downfall of the Tong Family if she decides to talk.”

“I understand, Grandpa.”

Tong Shu agreed dutifully, but a wicked smile played across half of her face hidden in the shadows.

Of course, she didn’t really need to do anything.

The woman’s mouth had already been permanently shut.
