It's easy to talk when you're not the one suffering.
"You were finally starting to act like a proper brother, and it was all for my kidneys."
"You've been planning this meticulously for so long. It seems I have no escape today, no matter what."
Rare tears streamed down Tang Xu's face.
The guilt in his heart was now tormenting him ferociously.
"I'm sorry. I promise you, after today, I will be a good brother."
"No matter what happens, I will stand up for you without hesitation. I won't let anyone hurt a single hair on your head."
Tang Xu stood by Tang Xiaomin's side, weeping uncontrollably.
He hadn't even cried like this when his parents were critically ill.
This just goes to show the extent of his inner torment.
He remembered when he and Tang Xiaomin had visited the amusement park peacefully, her giggling face. Back then, he had no prejudice against her.
In fact, he had started to like this sister.
Crocodile tears are deadly.
"Why are you crying to me when you've already made up your mind?" Tang Xiaomin asked.
"I'm the one who's having a kidney removed by you. I should be the one crying."
"Tang Xu, put away your tears. They only disgust me."
Tang Xu turned around and punched the wall fiercely.
"You're right, I'm not a god."
"Why can't I be a god? Why must I resort to such means to save another life!"
"Why!"
No one could answer Tang Xu's question.
Even if there were gods in this world, they would likely recoil in horror from such terrible humanity and keep their distance.
Just then, several doctors in white coats entered one after another.
One of them said to Tang Xu, "Dr. Tang, we can begin."
Tang Xu took one last, deep look at Tang Xiaomin.
"Xiaomin, don't be afraid. It will be like a dream. You won't feel any pain."
"Tang Xu, don't leave me," Tang Xiaomin said.
Tang Xu turned away resolutely without a word and left the operating room.
He had never felt that walking a few steps could be so difficult.
Fearing he would interfere with the surgery, Tang Xu chose not to participate.
Instead, he sat silently outside the two operating rooms, waiting quietly.
He looked at his hands, as if they were now stained with Tang Xiaomin's blood.
These were no longer hands that saved lives, but hands that took organs, the hands of a demon.
Time ticked by, and the operating rooms remained silent.
Suddenly, a group of people surged down the corridor.
A man with a fierce expression moved with extreme speed, apprehending Tang Xu and pinning him to the ground.
Just as Tang Xu was bewildered, he saw a group of people slowly approaching him.
Among them were three faces that shocked Tang Xu so much he forgot to breathe.
Zhang Meiyu, Tang Zhongcheng, and Tang Ye were amidst a group of uniformed prosecutors.
Soon, prosecutors entered both operating rooms.
Zhang Meiyu, Tang Zhongcheng, and Tang Ye followed suit.
A prosecutor emerged to report the situation.
"An illegal surgery is indeed in progress. The recipient's surgery is halfway done, and one kidney has already been removed."
"On the other side, several doctors have been subdued. The girl is unharmed."
This was a case of catching them red-handed, with irrefutable evidence.
The lead prosecutor immediately ordered, "Secure the scene, preserve the evidence. No one is to be let go."
"Yes!"
Tang Xu's hands were cuffed with cold, hard handcuffs.
He numbly squatted on the ground with the other doctors, his mind a complete blank, devoid of any coherent thought.
Inside the operating room, Tang Xiaomin's top was cut halfway off.
Her waist was marked with a pen, ready to cut through the skin and remove the kidney.
"Xiaomin, are you alright!"
Zhang Meiyu was sobbing uncontrollably, holding Tang Xiaomin tightly.
Seeing this, Tang Zhongcheng's eyes welled up with tears, and he wiped them away in secret.
Tang Ye was speechless.
Earlier, a man named Zhong Li had told them that Tang Xu had captured Tang Xiaomin to get her kidney for Tang Yiyi. Sudan Fiction Network.
At the time, he hadn't believed it, nor did he think Tang Xu would commit such an inhumane act.
Now, witnessing it firsthand with irrefutable evidence, he was filled with shock and a sense of dread.
Fortunately, they had arrived in time and averted a tragedy.
Tang Ye quietly retreated from the ward, his eyes scanning the doctors. He spotted Tang Xu.
They were twins, but apart from their looks, they were not alike in other ways.
Tang Xu had always been better than Tang Ye in everything since childhood.
While he envied him, he also wished he could become someone like Tang Xu.
His disappointment now was as great as his envy then.
Tang Ye couldn't help but rush into the crowd, pull Tang Xu up, and punch him hard in the face.
"Why?"
"Why would you do such a foolish thing? Are you insane! That's your own sister!"
"How could you commit such an inhumane act? Are you even human!"
Tang Ye, in his rage, landed several more punches on Tang Xu's face and body.
With his hands cuffed, Tang Xu didn't dodge, allowing Tang Ye to beat him.
Tang Xu's actions were truly infuriating.
Therefore, as Tang Ye furiously beat Tang Xu, no one tried to stop him or intervene.
Before long, Tang Xu was beaten black and blue, with blood flowing from his nose and mouth, looking utterly wretched.
When Zhang Meiyu and the others came out, they merely looked at Tang Xu with disappointment, saying nothing more.
The nightmare had come true; the deranged perpetrator was the usually quiet and reserved Tang Xu.
What else was there to say?
Tang Ye had knocked out two of Tang Xu's teeth.
Seeing that Tang Xu was severely beaten, the lead prosecutor finally intervened.
"Alright, alright. He broke the law, and he will face legal consequences. That's enough."
Tang Ye was disappointed in Tang Xu, but he wouldn't go so far as to kill him.
Yan Jue, smoking a cigarette, approached with a half-smile.
"Minmin, are you alright?"
A man's coat was casually draped over Tang Xiaomin, concealing her unnaturally slender waist.
Tang Xiaomin gave him a glare.
"If you had come any later, you might as well have been collecting my corpse."
Yan Jue smiled and whispered in Tang Xiaomin's ear, "If I had come any earlier, you wouldn't have achieved the effect you wanted. I was following your instructions, so why are you blaming me?"
A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
So difficult to please.
Tang Xiaomin nodded. "You did well this time. I'll reward you later. But now, I need to go see someone."
In another ward, Tang Yiyi lay alone on the operating table.
Her surgery was only halfway through. One kidney had already been removed and placed on a tray, waiting for the new one to be implanted.
Now, the incision on her waist had been sutured, forming a dense, scar-like pattern.
Previously, Tang Xiaomin had been on the operating table while Tang Yiyi stood.
Now, the roles were reversed.
Tang Xiaomin, without a word, slapped Tang Yiyi twice, returning the favor.
Slap!
Slap!
