Some of the things that could easily cause misunderstandings were said by Sheng Changxiu.
Jiang Yingchi watched with a calm gaze as Ning Qiluo approached Sheng Changxiu. He could do many things. But having rendered the Qi family helpless for so many years, and now that he and A'Luo had just gotten together, he dared not do anything rashly.
He simply stood there and watched quietly, without interfering with her.
Ning Qiluo coldly withdrew her hand.
"I don't like you, you know that. But why do you always act like this, trying to get close to me as if you're intimate? I've given you everything you wanted, whether it's the long-term prosperity of your Sheng family or your life security. I've given you whatever you wanted, can't we just live in peace and not bother each other?"
Sheng Changxiu smiled upon hearing this.
Her smile was faint, yet incredibly gentle.
Because she has such a friendly face that makes it impossible to see any scheming in her.
She leaned down slightly: "Of course we can all be well. Haven't I always said that? Qi Luo, you must be worried. I just wanted to say hello to you."
Faced with such a gentle and harmless face, anyone who didn't know about the past conflict between the two would be deceived by Sheng Changxiu's gentle appearance, right?
Ning Qiluo felt upset because of Sheng Changxiu's words: "I'm fine, I don't need your concern."
“I’m happy to hear that you’re here,” Sheng Changxiu said.
Ning Qiluo didn't want to waste time with her pretense, so she stood up. But Sheng Changxiu took her hand and said gently, "Qiluo, don't be angry with me. I won't disturb your life. Didn't we agree on that before? Hmm?"
Ning Qiluo tried to shake off her hand, but Sheng Changxiu held it tightly.
She looked down at Sheng Changxiu's face, her voice slow and deliberate: "What do you want from me now?"
"Is that how you think of me?" Sheng Changxiu asked.
Ning Qiluo curled her lips: "Then how do you expect me to think of you? For the past year or so, I've been living the most ordinary life outside. I've been slandered, attacked, and insulted. Aren't you happy enough seeing all that? Aren't you satisfied enough?"
"Qi Luo, what are you saying? I feel sorry for you knowing how hard you're working out there."
Sheng Changxiu, with the gentlest expression and the softest voice, said, "You don't know, I've wanted to come and see you and keep you company so many times."
“There’s no need for that.” Ning Qiluo pried her hands away.
This time, Sheng Changxiu didn't pull her back, but just smiled and said, "You really hold a deep grudge against me."
"That's not a grudge, it's a debt of gratitude between us. I've been repaying you, always..."
Ning Qiluo almost went hysterical when she said those words.
Her eyes were red.
Yes, this feud runs very deep.
Sheng Changxiu lost both of her legs in the process.
Sheng Changxiu will be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life, all thanks to her. She was like a bad child, ruining what should have been a wonderful life for Sheng Changxiu.
Sheng Changxiu said that unless she also lost both legs, this would be a lifelong grudge.
She actually smashed her own leg with a brick, determined to pay off her debt. The scene is still etched in her memory. When she hurt herself, her mother begged her repeatedly, almost fainting from crying; her father nearly ended up in the hospital from anger; her sister repeatedly tried to comfort her; and her brothers were all in a panic, calling her name…
'My darling, my baby, look at Mommy, Mommy loves you, you can't do this...'
'Luo Luo, you're not just hurting yourself, you're piercing Daddy's heart.'
