Chapter 591: Counterattack of the Original Heroine 26
No matter how 178 tried to persuade her, the next day, Wang Shufang still moved to live with the Wang family. She had just settled down in the Wang family’s house when suddenly there was a thunderous sound from the sky, followed by a boom, and a lightning bolt struck directly on the top of Wang Shufang’s head.
Next door to the Wang family, a man in his thirties, an old widower, was happily watching a beautiful woman from the top of the yard wall. The sudden lightning struck the beauty and turned her into charcoal, scaring him so much that he fell off the wall, scrambling in a hurry to the brigade office.
Soon, the brigade leader arrived with a few village officials, followed by a group of elderly people and children who weren’t working.
Wang Shufang had been knocked out by the lightning, lying rigidly in the Wang family’s yard.
The brigade leader quickly called several villagers to dismantle a door panel from the Wang family’s house and carried Wang Shufang to the health clinic.
The old Chinese medicine doctor checked her over, shaking his head and sighing, "Ah, what a pity, such a good girl, how did heaven single her out, ah..."
The brigade leader, with a dark face, anxiously asked him, "Uncle Sun, don’t beat around the bush, just tell us, how is Wang Zhiqing?"
Doctor Sun flared his nostrils at him, "She’s been struck by lightning like this, how could she be well? Both her hands are crippled. You need to hurry and send her to the hospital for amputation. If you’re late, even her life can’t be saved."
"Oh, and, you need to quickly remove the prosthetics from her leg. The prosthetics are made of iron and rubber, the iron got heated by the lightning, and the rubber turned into mud, sticking to her leg, her leg surely has blisters now."
"What, prosthetics?" The brigade leader seemed to learn something new, "Her... her leg?"
"Gone, she had no lower legs, was able to walk because she had prosthetics installed, now those prosthetics are like they’re burnt. When you take them off, wear gloves, don’t burn your hands."
The brigade leader looked at the unconscious Wang Shufang, thinking about the fate of the Wang family, he really wanted to turn around and walk away, to ignore this mess, but thinking about Wang Shufang being a young life too, and wanting to continue being the brigade leader, he couldn’t just walk away, he sighed silently, called his own wife, and let her, wearing thick gloves, remove Wang Shufang’s prosthetics.
As the prosthetics also had rubber, now being struck by lightning turned them into a puddle of mush, the brigade leader’s wife exerted a lot of effort to separate the prosthetics from Wang Shufang’s leg.
As Doctor Sun said, Wang Shufang’s amputated leg was burned bright red, covered densely with blisters.
Wang Shufang was sent to the hospital, where the doctors worked all day to pull her back from the brink of death.
Three days later, when Wang Shufang woke up again, she found out that her expensive prosthetics were ruined, and her own hands had also been amputated.
She, as a whole, could hardly be called human anymore; she had become a monster.
A monster without lower legs or hands.
Wang Shufang went mad.
Even though she had experienced countless small worlds, with a heart as strong as steel, she could not accept herself like this now.
She had become a monster that everyone feared and avoided. How could she accomplish this task now?
Even if Yan Hui was a fool, he wouldn’t marry a monster without hands and feet, right?
This task, up to this point, was already considered a failure.
On the brink of collapse, Wang Shufang communicated with 178, "Ask Main God Space if I can start this task over."
178, dejected, replied, "Host, once a task begins, it cannot be reversed."
"Then what do I do? In my current state, Yan Hui definitely won’t marry me. If I can’t marry Yan Hui, I’ll fail the task."
