Gao Qiang looked triumphantly at Tang Xiaomin and said arrogantly, "Don't forget about the five hundred thousand. Everyone here heard it."
Obviously, he thought he was guaranteed to win.
Tang Xiaomin said nothing and ignored Gao Qiang.
Her mind was full of being manipulated earlier and why Gao Qiang had come to provoke her.
Gao Qiang was definitely involved in this.
She held her breath and picked up the heavy shot put.
When she lifted it with one hand, everyone was shocked.
Tang Xiaomin didn't have the fancy moves like Gao Qiang. She stood still and threw the heavy shot put with one hand, drawing a parabola in the air.
A shocking scene appeared!
With a loud bang, the shot put smashed into a building in front of the shot put field, embedding itself in the wall.
"Ah!"
"How is this possible!"
!!!
Everyone's mouths hung open in an O-shape, rubbing their eyes in disbelief at what they were seeing.
A twenty-year-old girl with such terrifying explosive power, was this really happening, or were they dreaming?
Was she even human?
…
Under the shocked gazes of the entire school, Tang Xiaomin, with a calm expression, slowly withdrew and walked towards Gao Qiang.
And she said only one harsh sentence to him: "You will have to pay a price for your provocation."
Gao Qiang stared at the shot put embedded in the wall in the distance, so shocked he couldn't speak.
Looking at Tang Xiaomin again, he saw her as a monster.
"Impossible, this is impossible, impossible…"
The prize money and medals were placed beside him, and Tang Xiaomin had taken Gao Qiang's glory as the track and field champion.
As for Gao Qiang, he kept repeating: impossible.
This competition concluded with Tang Xiaomin's victory.
Outside the school gate, Tang Xiaomin called Zhong Li.
"Help me keep an eye on someone named Gao Qiang, find out about his family situation, and see who else he's in contact with."
Back home, Tang Xiaomin brought out the trophy she had intercepted to show her adoptive parents.
"Dad, Mom, look, this is the trophy I won at the school sports meet, along with a prize of two hundred thousand yuan."
Tang Xiaomin handed the money to her adoptive mother, Zhou Xiaolan.
Zhou Xiaolan shook her head and pushed it back to her.
"Mom doesn't need money at home, you keep this money for yourself, buy whatever you want."
"Mom, please save it for me, and give it back to me when I need it."
After Tang Xiaomin insisted, Zhou Xiaolan agreed to keep it for Tang Xiaomin temporarily.
The couple had no children, and Tang Xiaomin was their only adopted daughter. When they got old, everything would be Tang Xiaomin's.
Li Changchun returned in a hurry, saying as he walked, "Xiaomin, your brother Tang Xu is critically ill, you should go see him quickly."
"Dad, when did this happen?"
"Just now. I ran into your mom and your eldest brother rushing to the hospital on my way home from work."
Last time Tang Xiao was poisoned, Tang Xiaomin thought he was faking it and didn't pay attention.
Now that he was critically ill again, it was truly puzzling.
"Dad, Mom, I'm going, you don't need to wait for me to eat dinner tonight."
At the hospital, Zhang Meiyu's eyes were red from crying.
Tang Yu comforted her with a solemn expression.
"Mom, don't worry, he'll be fine."
After Tang Xiaomin arrived, she sat quietly on a chair and waited.
The last time Tang Xu had an accident, the reason she hadn't helped him was, in the end, her hatred for Tang Xu still lingered.
She really didn't know how to forgive someone who had tried to take her life.
She barely managed not to send Tang Xu to his death as she had with Tang Yiyi.
Perhaps it was because she felt that letting them experience a painful separation would be more agonizing.
Three hours later, the doctor came out, his face full of exhaustion.
"Fortunately, he managed to swallow a piece of soap himself, and was narrowly saved."
"Thank you, doctor, thank you, thank you…"
"This is what we should do. He can be moved to a general ward in a while."
Zhang Meiyu tearfully thanked the doctor, her tears never stopping.
"Mom, Tang Xu is fine now, don't worry," Tang Yu said.
Half an hour later, Tang Xu was moved into a private room, and a prosecutor was specifically monitoring him.
After months apart, Tang Xu looked gaunt, his gloomy eyes very weak.
Tang Xiaomin knew he had become like this because of Tang Yiyi.
With the person saved, Tang Xiaomin glanced at him and didn't linger, turning to leave.
"Wait, I have something to say to you," Tang Xu suddenly said.
Tang Xiaomin hated Tang Xu from the bottom of her heart.
"I have nothing to say to you. You staged a bitter trick, and it's fine if you can fool them."
In terms of acting, Tang Ye, who was in the entertainment industry, was nothing compared to Tang Xu.
Tang Xu was such a good actor; he sent Tang Xiaomin to the operating table while simultaneously playing the role of a good brother who cried heartbrokenly.
"What? How could Tang Xu fake it?"
Zhang Meiyu refused to believe such a thing and looked at Tang Xu with questioning and doubt.
Among her sons, she couldn't fathom Tang Xu's intentions.
Even Tang Yu couldn't help but accuse Tang Xu.
"You are a man, you must take responsibility for your mistakes and dare to bear your punishment. You've only been in prison for a few months, can't you wait a moment longer?"
The mother's and elder brother's doubts made Tang Xu feel very uneasy.
Since when did he become a coward who lacked responsibility and evaded it in their eyes?
"I didn't fake it, I was poisoned. Someone clearly wants to kill me."
"Then how do you explain swallowing the soap? Wasn't that a contingency plan you prepared in advance?" Tang Xiaomin questioned him.
Poisoning always carried risks. If discovered early, it was fine, but if discovered late, there would be no saving them.
Tang Xu was a doctor and knew that swallowing soap could induce vomiting and alleviate poisoning, buying time.
How many people, when poisoned, would think of this?
This was also why Zhang Meiyu and Tang Yu didn't trust Tang Xu.
Tang Xu found himself unable to explain himself clearly at this moment and felt extremely wronged.
But no matter what, he had been poisoned twice. If they still didn't help him, he didn't know if he would be lucky enough to survive the next time.
"After I was poisoned last time, I felt very uneasy, so I secretly hid a small piece of soap in my shoe."
"Therefore, after being poisoned, I did swallow the soap. I admit to this. I really didn't fake it; someone really wants to kill me."
He had said what he needed to say.
Whether they believed him or not was not something Tang Xu could control.
"If you don't save me, I will die in prison sooner or later. Next time, I won't have the good luck of these two times."
Tang Xu said, a strong desire to survive surging in the depths of his eyes.
Whether it was genuine emotion or an outburst of acting, it was unclear.
"Heh."
Tang Xiaomin sneered.
"You are just a doctor, and you haven't offended anyone before. I really can't understand, after being sentenced to six years, what kind of deep-seated hatred could make someone try to take your life several times?"
