After hanging up the phone, Guo Xueyun gritted her teeth. What was wrong with Yang Chang? He had already signed the contract and was still asking Jiang Wanqing to go back. Wouldn't that mean all her plans would be for nothing?
Absolutely not! It seems relying on that good-for-nothing is not as good as relying on myself!
Jiang Wanqing can go back to the factory, but her relationship with Yang Chang must never be the same as before!
At that time, the hospital—
Jiang Wanqing and Jiang Jianguo took Xue He to the hospital. After the doctor examined her, it turned out to be just an external injury that could be treated with some medicine; she didn't need to be hospitalized.
Just as they were about to leave, Cheng Ran arrived. He had only been away from home for a short while, and yet an assault had occurred. How could he not feel guilty?
"What's wrong with Mom?"
"Guo Xueyun, how's your investigation going?"
Her face darkened, and she immediately asked Cheng Ran, because he had gone out today to investigate Guo Xueyun's matter.
"We've made some progress. Let's talk about it when we get back."
"good."
They took Xue He home because she had injured her hand and couldn't do any kitchen work for a while. Jiang Wanqing wanted to do it herself, but Cheng's mother stopped her.
“You’re pregnant now, what are you cooking for? Get out, get out, let Guo Xueyun cook. I paid for it.”
"Hmph, let her come. Is she going to harm my mother and then us? Is she planning to let her poison us all with rat poison, or scald us to death by pouring hot soup on us?"
"How...how can you say that? Xueyun just told me that it was an accident."
Cheng's mother crossed her hands in front of her lower abdomen and frowned guiltily. Guo Xueyun explained to her that Jiang Wanqing was about to go out and she tried to stop her in a hurry, but accidentally injured Xue He. She also said that if she really had bad intentions, it wouldn't have been as simple as just injuring someone's hand.
This explanation convinced Cheng's mother to a great extent, so she looked up at Jiang Wanqing.
"I'm asking you, were you planning to go out when your mother had that accident?"
"What does this have to do with it?"
"That's right! It must be because you were in such a hurry to go out that your mother got hurt. You're such a worry for your parents every day, and you're such a worry for your in-laws and your husband as a daughter-in-law. In the end, isn't the responsibility yours?"
This attempt to shift the blame was truly astonishing to Jiang Wanqing; she had never seen such a shameless person before.
She gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and looked at Cheng's mother with a forced smile.
"Since you're so good at twisting the truth, then you can live with Guo Xueyun. I'm not cooking this meal anymore. Tonight I'm taking my parents out to eat. It's none of my business if you guys eat shit!"
Jiang Wanqing slammed the cleaver in her hand onto the cutting board, where it stood firmly, startling Cheng's mother.
"you……"
"If you provoke me again, Guo Xueyun will get out in three days, and you all will get out too!"
After saying that, she turned and left. Cheng's mother wanted to chase after her to demand justice, but she was frightened by her. She glanced at the kitchen knife on the cutting board, shrank back, and dared not move.
Jiang Wanqing and Cheng Ran took Jiang Jianguo and Xue He out to a restaurant. Firstly, it would be difficult to talk to everyone at home because there were too many people. Secondly, they were genuinely worried about the safety of the food at home. At least until they dealt with Guo Xueyun, their safety was still uncertain.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Jiang Wanqing served her mother the entire meal, making Xue He feel a little embarrassed.
"I'll do it, I'll do it... I can pick up the food myself, Wanqing, you eat quickly, it'll get cold."
Seeing her daughter doing her best for her, not daring to slack off in the slightest, Xue He felt very guilty. If she had paid attention to Guo Xueyun's actions at the time, this wouldn't have happened, and everyone wouldn't have had to worry about her.
Jiang Jianguo patted her arm: "What Wanqing wants most is for you to recover quickly. Don't feel burdened. Think about it, only when you're well can you take good care of her."
"Dad is right, Mom, just relax and enjoy yourself."
"good……"
Xue He nodded, tears welling in her eyes, and opened her mouth to take the shrimp that Jiang Wanqing fed her.
After helping her mother pick out the food and serve the soup, Jiang Wanqing was about to eat herself when she looked down and noticed that her bowl already contained a combination of meat and vegetables. She looked up at Cheng Ran and smiled.
"Eat."
"Um."
They are not used to discussing business before eating, and they wait until they are about 70% full before starting to talk about anything other than food.
Cheng Ran took a piece of paper out of his pocket, unfolded it, and handed it to Jiang Wanqing.
"This is Guo Xueyun's itinerary after she came to the southwest from Beijing. Take a look."
She needed this, so she wiped her mouth with a napkin, took it, and frowned when she saw the first line of text.
"She came to the Southwest a long time ago?"
"Well, according to the train number, she arrived more than a week earlier than my parents. I haven't found out where she was staying during this period, but I'm sure she's not as destitute as she claimed, to the point of not being able to survive."
Jiang Wanqing listened to Cheng Ran's words without saying anything and continued reading. She discovered that Guo Xueyun rarely appeared in formal settings, but the information indicated that she mostly appeared on a street, where she was seen by officers on duty...
Jiang Wanqing tapped her slender fingers on the paper, pondering what was on that street that made Guo Xueyun wait so repeatedly for someone or something.
Without any other thoughts in mind, Jiang Wanqing put the note in her pocket. After they had almost finished eating, they leisurely went home.
Whether Guo Xueyun was scared or was brewing something, she didn't cause any trouble after that. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and she actually left on time!
Before leaving, she came to say goodbye to Jiang Wanqing, carrying her luggage.
"Thank you for taking me in these three days, but... I won't leave the Southwest. We'll have plenty of opportunities to meet again. Jiang Wanqing, even if you are the center of this world... you may not be able to reach the top. We'll see!"
The next sentence was whispered by Guo Xueyun close to Jiang Wanqing's ear, and it was very meaningful and undisguised.
But... what do you mean by "center of the world"?
"Goodbye, I'm leaving now. See you later."
"etc!"
Just as Guo Xueyun was about to step out of the iron gate, Jiang Wanqing grabbed her arm.
"Explain yourself clearly!"
"There's nothing to say. You can die once, and you can die a second time, or even be completely annihilated. As for me... I have divine assistance, so I will naturally defeat you in the end!"
"What do you mean by that? Guo Xue..."
Guo Xueyun pushed her hand away, strode away, and waved back triumphantly, like a smug monkey.
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
For a fleeting moment, Jiang Wanqing felt a jolt of electricity in her head. She clutched her head and staggered backward, but Cheng Ran caught her.
"What's wrong?"
She shook her head: "No... I just... suddenly have a headache. It feels like... like something is fleeting in my brain, I try to grasp it... but I can't. It's okay, I'll be fine after a while."
