Chapter 316: The Price Is Life (Part 1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Anyone with a little rationality would know that this was impossible. Miao Yin said that they needed to pay a little price, but no one knew what the price was.
Some people said that it was money, but was it really money?
Wei Shilai’s heart was also a little heavy. Was money really the price?
Of course, everyone loved money, but was money what they loved the most? Wei Shilai’s heart tightened. He got into the carriage and urged. “Go back, go back, go back quickly.”
What if the price was human life?
The coachman did not know what was going on, but seeing that Wei Shilai’s expression was terrifyingly dark, he kicked the horse and drove away.
Wei Shilai could not sit tight. He wished he could fly back immediately.
Fortunately, it was early in the morning and there were no pedestrians on the road, so he arrived home very quickly.
Wei Shilai jumped out of the carriage without waiting for it to stop. He ran in hurriedly. The coachman could not help but wonder why he was in such a frenzy.
Wei Shilai almost fell several times along the way. He felt that his legs were a little weak. He went straight to another courtyard instead of the main courtyard.
It was the courtyard where his daughter, Wei Meng, lived. When Wei Shilai rushed into the courtyard, the servant girls on night duty were shocked.
Wei Shilai’s voice was trembling as he asked. “Where’s Miss?”
The servant girl was shocked and replied in a daze. “Miss… Miss is sleeping in the room.”
Wei Shilai pushed open the door and rushed into the inner room. His voice was filled with panic. “Light the candle. Hurry up.”

The servant girl was trembling with fear. Although she did not know what was going on, she quickly lit the candle.
Wei Shilai pounced on the bed and reached out to touch the person on the bed. He called out in a trembling voice. “Meng… Meng.”
He reached out to touch his daughter’s face and felt something wet on his palm. He raised his hand and saw that it was blood. Wei Shilai was terrified. He cried out. “Someone, call the doctor.”
When the servant girl saw the blood, she screamed and ran out.
The commotion woke up everyone in the mansion.
Mrs. Wei got out of the room and asked her servant girl. “What’s wrong?”
The servant girl replied in panic. “Sir came back and went straight to Miss’s courtyard.”
Just as Mrs. Wei was about to ask what was going on, a servant girl’s trembling voice came from outside. “Miss is vomiting blood. Quickly call a doctor.”
Mrs. Wei quickly went to check on her daughter. “What happened to Meng?”
Wei Shilai’s eyes were terrifying as he asked. “What did you promise?”
Mrs. Wei panicked. “I… I didn’t.”
She did not tell Wei Shilai that she saw Miao Yin. How did he find out?
Wei Shilai was about to go crazy. “Are you out of your mind? Miao Yin is extremely strange. Why did you believe her? She can cure you, but she wants to take away what you love. What she wants is your daughter’s life.”
Mrs. Wei was stunned and her body went limp. “What… what…”
The price she had to pay was actually her daughter’s life?
Tears streamed down Mrs. Wei’s face. She didn’t want to be treated anymore. She didn’t want to. She would rather be infertile for the rest of her life than lose her daughter.
Wei Shilai let out a long sigh. No matter how much he wanted to blame his wife, he could not bring himself to do so. He only hugged his daughter and shouted. “Meng, open your eyes and look at me.”
Mrs. Wei knelt in front of the bed and sobbed. “Meng, it’s all my fault. Wake up. I don’t want to lose you. I won’t trade you for anything, and I won’t abandon you either. Wake up.”
If the price of remaining infertile was to lose her daughter, she didn’t want it anymore.
The price was simply too heavy.
She closed her eyes and kept praying. “I don’t want to be fertile and I don’t want a son anymore. I just want my daughter to be safe.”
The warmth in her body gradually disappeared. She was even weaker than before. As she knelt by the bed, she could feel coldness seeping into her bones.
“Cough, cough.”
Wei Meng coughed and Wei Shilai looked nervous. He called out. “Meng.”
Wei Meng felt a bloody taste in her mouth and felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing that her parents were both here, she was a little confused. “Father, Mother, why are you in my room?”
Wei Shilai was frightened. He hugged Wei Meng and sighed. “You scared me to death.”
Before Wei Meng could figure out what was going on, the doctor came quickly and took her pulse.
Then, he said, “Master, Madam, don’t worry. Miss just had a nosebleed. Because she was sleeping, the blood came out from her mouth. She’s fine now.”
Wei Shilai heaved a sigh of relief.
Wei Meng wiped her nose. “Was my nose bleeding? I was wondering why I couldn’t breathe. It turns out that my nose was bleeding.”
Mrs. Wei shed tears silently. Wei Shilai glanced at her and did not say anything. It was good that their daughter was out of danger.
After instructing the servant girl to take good care of their daughter, Wei Shilai helped Mrs. Wei back to their room.
Mrs. Wei was silent as she returned to the room. Wei Shilai closed the door and sighed.
Before Wei Shilai could speak, Mrs. Wei knelt down and slapped herself hard. “It was my fault.”
Wei Meng had a nosebleed because Mrs. Wei thought about abandoning what she loved the most, which was her daughter, several times.
If Wei Meng didn’t wake up in time, she would be choked to death by the blood accumulating in her throat.
Wei Shilai sighed and didn’t blame his wife. He helped Mrs. Wei up. “Take good care of our daughter. Miao Yin isn’t saving people but harming them. Miss Liu probably doesn’t know yet. I have to tell her.”
Mrs. Wei wiped her tears and nodded.
Wei Shilai patted her shoulder. “It’s enough for me to have you and Meng in my life. If you know what kind of a person I am, don’t do something foolish again.”
Mrs. Wei was ridden with guilt. She nodded and choked on her words. She understood that she was just possessed by her selfishness.
