Jiang Yi became the maid's daughter in a novel, where two years later she would follow her biological mother to the city upon entering university, but after living as a dependent for many years...
Chapter 6
No one really had much hope for Xu Wang's leg, so when Xu Wang's brother suggested that there were some lesser-known doctors abroad they could try, they decided to try it in China first.
However, to their surprise, their son regained feeling in his legs.
When Fu Zhaoya saw Dr. Zhang Jingyi remove the needle from Xu Wang's leg, and Xu Wang's leg involuntarily twitched, her eyes immediately turned red.
Their son's leg injury had exhausted them, and they had lost all hope. Now, they finally saw a glimmer of hope.
Dr. Zhang Jingyi remained calm and said, "Don't be too happy yet. Right now, you only have sensation. There's still a long road of rehabilitation ahead. Whether you can walk at all is still a question."
"Thank you so much, doctor," Fu Zhaoya couldn't help but say. As she spoke, she asked someone to give Dr. Zhang Jingyi a red envelope, but Dr. Zhang Jingyi waved his hand and said, "Whether I am willing to treat you or not depends entirely on my feelings for you. These material things are of no use to me. Just give me the basic consultation fee."
Xu Heng and Fu Zhaoya exchanged a glance, both of them looking at each other with admiration.
After Dr. Zhang Jingyi left, Anan told Jiang Yi the good news.
To be honest, Jiang Yi didn't have high hopes either. Hearing this, she smiled and said, "That's good too."
Anan said, "If the young master knew that it was you who asked the butler to find that doctor, he definitely wouldn't treat you so badly anymore."
Jiang Yi is the kind of person who likes to do good deeds anonymously. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, don't tell him. I wasn't really sure about this anyway, I was just giving it a try."
Anan thought about it and felt that, given the young master's current personality, telling him would be too deliberate, so he planned to say it later. However, Uncle Zhong accidentally let it slip.
Fu Zhaoya and his wife were so excited that they said to Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, Xiao Wang's leg wouldn't have improved. What do you want? Just tell me."
Uncle Zhong was quite embarrassed and waved his hand, saying, "Actually, it wasn't my idea. It was Qiao's daughter and Anan who found me together."
Fu Zhaoya looked puzzled. Uncle Zhong explained the whole story, and then Fu Zhaoya called the two children over.
Anan was unwilling to lie, so the couple soon learned that this was Jiang Yi's idea all by herself.
When Jiang Yi saw Xu Heng and his wife standing in front of her, she suddenly regretted meddling in other people's business. After all, she later remembered that the butler was the female lead's uncle, and it was because of the female lead that the male lead's leg was healed. Now, she had brought the plot forward.
I wonder if this will affect the romantic relationship between the male and female leads.
If this causes any problems, things will get very serious.
Jiang Yi looked at the two adults in front of her, and Xu Wang, who was lying on the bed with his eyes downcast, seemingly scrutinizing her.
He twisted his fingers and said, "Well, that's me. I heard that some local traditional Chinese medicine doctors are quite skilled, so I wanted to give them a try..."
As she spoke, she gently curved her eyes and said, "If it's useful, that would be great."
I hope this kid's condition will improve and he won't cause me any more trouble.
Don't think she didn't know that while she was looking for something, some brat was spying on her and suspected her of stealing.
Although she wasn't entirely sure, she felt that this kid must have somehow found out that she might be a threat to the Xu family, so...
That's quite likely.
However, he probably didn't expect that she had actually been replaced.
Fu Zhaoya never expected that it would be because of a child that her son regained feeling in his legs. She looked at Jiang Yi with increasing joy and said, "Xiao Yi, what reward do you want?"
Jiang Yi:......
Xu Wang's mother is really something; she likes to reward others at the drop of a hat.
I'm so envious.
But now that I'm living in someone else's house, I can't just accept a reward from them: "Auntie, this is what I should do."
Fu Zhaoya gave her a light, reproachful look and said, "Why are you being so polite with me? You're a great contributor to our family."
However, Jiang Yi ultimately refused to accept anything. After some thought, Xu Heng and his wife decided to reward her with 100,000 yuan, which they then transferred to her mother.
When Jiang Yi found out about this, she regretted it. If she had known it would be like this, she would have accepted it so that she could have kept the money in her own pocket. However, her mother said that because Jiang Yi was young, she would keep the money for her.
Jiang Yi said that she really wants to grow up.
After Jiang Yi returned home, Xu Wang sat on the bed in silence for a long time, feeling as if he hadn't even reacted yet.
Jiang Yi had arranged for someone to treat my leg. What was she trying to do?
Could it be that she's trying to please me and gain my trust?
Xu Wang didn't know, but he saw her when he went out to sunbathe the next day.
It's the weekend. Although she learned her grades from the class monitor last night, the test papers haven't actually been handed out yet. However, because she did well on the test, she's in a good mood today. When Xu Wang was pushed out of the house, she was reading in the garden. The wind gently blew her long skirt, and her long hair fell down a bit, giving her an indescribable beauty.
For some reason, Xu Wang felt a strange feeling flowing through his heart that he couldn't explain.
This feeling made him unconsciously walk over, interrupt her reading, and ask, "Why are you helping me?"
Actually, Xu Wang had been avoiding meeting her all this time. When the two of them suddenly met face to face, Jiang Yi was a little surprised. After hearing his words, she was also slightly stunned, and then said, "There's no reason. It's just that Aunt Fu is nice to me, so I'm just returning the favor."
Another reason is that I find his paranoia quite annoying.
"But don't think that just because you helped me, I'll be eternally grateful. No matter what, I will definitely kick you out of my house. If you know what's good for you, you'll leave on your own."
Jiang Yi: ...This chuunibyou guy.
She actually really wanted to live at school. She had talked to her mother about it once, but her mother was worried and felt that the school environment wasn't very good. Then, Xu Wang's mother overheard that conversation and also disagreed.
Actually, if he hadn't said it, she might have thought about it some more. But since he did, Jiang Yi said with a smile, "Well, anyway, you can't get rid of me, and you can't hit me. By the way, I heard you used to be the top student in your grade at No. 1 High School, but now I've already taken that position, and yours is mine too. Kid, you'd better take good care of your leg. If you don't get it healed soon, you'll be a senior in high school, and everyone else in your grade will be going to university, while you'll be stuck repeating a year."
After provoking him, Jiang Yi left in a cheerful mood.
Xu Wang, sitting in a wheelchair, had a livid face.
After a fun-filled weekend, Jiang Yi returned to school on Monday. Her report card was already out, and everyone's expressions were a little strange when they saw her.
Jiang Yi touched her face, looked at Yu Zhe, and asked in confusion, "Is there something on my face?"
Yu Zhe said, "Didn't I tell you? You got the highest score in the grade."
"Oh." She already knew about this, but she had won so many first places in her previous life that everyone was used to it, so no one expected it to attract so much attention.
Jiang Yi patted her face and said, "First place is first place, it's nothing."
She herself didn't think anything of it, but her classmates couldn't help but whisper among themselves, saying, "How is she so amazing?"
"Was this first place result copied?"
"Could it be that Xu Wang's position is the number one throne?"
Seeing everyone's discussion about her, Yu Zhe couldn't help but speak up, coughing as he said, "Ahem, some of you who speak ill of others to their faces, you should stop a little. They can hear you. The exam content is sealed by the teachers. I also wanted to copy a first place to see if I could copy it. Look, did I manage to copy it?"
Yu Zhe came in second, ten points behind Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi smiled gratefully at him upon hearing his words, then looked down at her own test paper.
Xu Wang's classmates soon sent him their scores and exam papers, which he also received. Jiang Yi's exam paper was also photographed and sent to him.
He stared at the contents of the document, somewhat bewildered.
If he remembered correctly, in her previous life, she was said to have had very poor grades in high school and ended up attending a third-tier university. It was only because Aunt Lu's salary was high that she was able to attend a university.
Why did she have such good grades in this lifetime?
If he had studied diligently in school, he might not have gotten this score.
Could it be that she was reborn as well?
But given her mindset in her past life—where she only studied crooked ways and never studied—even if she memorized everything by rote, she couldn't possibly get this score.
What exactly happened?
What caused this change?
