Li Ying doesn't try to be strong when faced with things she can't control; she takes a step back.
"You're a doctor, and you can't even cure this little illness? What kind of doctor are you? Dr. Lu, you're a leading figure in the medical field. Tell me, how is my grandfather doing?" The girl in the Western dress spoke imperiously, calling him Dr. Lu, but showing no respect whatsoever.
Old Lu sighed, "Li Ying's judgment was correct."
This confirms Li Ying's diagnosis.
The girl frowned and looked at Li Ying. Such a young woman could actually win Lu Lai's heart; she really had ability.
"Chunya, you don't understand, don't talk nonsense." Yaru tugged at her cousin and gently advised her.
Chun Ya broke free from Lai Ya Ru, looking disgusted: "I already told you, don't call me Chun Ya. It's such a tacky name, it'll sound old-fashioned. I have an English name, Ling Da. From now on, you're only allowed to call me Ling Da!"
Ya Ru didn't say anything more, but said to Madam Tang, "Aunt, if you're not satisfied with Li Ying's diagnosis, please ask another doctor to come. We'll head back now!"
Ya Ru pulled Li Ying away; she didn't want to stay there and see these people's faces.
After leaving the Tang family compound, Li Ying smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, you don't like these kinds of occasions either?"
Ya Ru nodded, looking quite troubled: "Our family is a collateral branch, and the Tang family has always looked down on us. When I was about to marry your older brother, they said I had bad eyesight and even wanted to expel me from the Tang family. My parents disagreed, so the matter was dropped. If my aunt hadn't asked me to invite you over, I wouldn't have let you make this trip for nothing."
Li Ying squeezed her sister-in-law's hand: "Sister-in-law will not suffer any grievances in the Li family in the future."
"Of course, ever since that incident, your older brother reports to me about everything, big and small. I'm so annoyed." Ya Ru was a bit smug.
The two women, sister-in-law and aunt, chatted and laughed as they hurried home.
As they passed a shop, a man suddenly darted out from behind a large tree, holding a knife and charging towards Li Ying while shouting.
It's Chu Yiyi!
Li Ying quickly pulled Ya Ru aside. Chu Yiyi missed her first strike and, in a fit of anger, swung her sword to strike a second time.
Li Ying dodged the knife and stuck the needle into Chu Yiyi's arm. Chu Yiyi felt the pain and tried to raise the knife again, but found that her right arm had no strength at all.
Just then, a pebble the size of an egg flew over and hit Chu Yiyi's knee. Chu Yiyi fell to the ground with a thud, glaring angrily.
"Li Ying, it's all your fault! If it weren't for you, our family wouldn't be in this state!"
Li Ying remained silent, coldly glancing at Chu Yiyi.
"Miss Chu, your family's affairs have nothing to do with me. Don't pin these accusations on me!"
Leng Yan, who had been throwing stones, strode over and said to Ah Hu beside him, "She committed a malicious attack. Take her to the police station!"
"yes!"
Chu Yiyi tried to get up a few times but couldn't. She crawled to Leng Yan and stretched out her hand. Leng Yan took a step back in disgust and looked down at her: "Miss Chu, wasn't it you who bribed someone to attack Li Ying last time?"
Chu Yiyi's face turned pale. She opened her mouth, knowing she had been utterly defeated, and lowered her head. Ah Hu pulled her up and took her to the police station.
"Are you two alright?" Leng Yan asked.
"It's nothing, my cousin is just passing by?" Ya Ru asked with a smile.
Leng Yan was just an adopted son of the Jing family, but he was still his aunt's son, so Ya Ru should call him cousin.
“Indeed, I was just passing by.” Leng Yan’s gaze fell on Li Ying, looking at the silver needles in her hand, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: “I guess I was just meddling.”
"How could that be? If it weren't for you, cousin, we really don't know what would have happened. Come over for dinner sometime!" Ya Ru invited warmly.
Leng Yan didn't refuse, but said he had other things to do and left.
Ya Ru nudged Li Ying: "What do you think of my cousin?"
"good."
Li Ying had a good impression of Leng Yan, but she disliked the fact that he harbored hidden ambitions beneath his cold exterior.
"Even so, Yingying, you can't be fooled by his appearance. He's not a good match for you."
Li Ying was taken aback. She thought her sister-in-law would say something about a once-in-a-millennium fate, but she didn't expect her sister-in-law to suddenly change her words and feel that Leng Yan was not a good match.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Ya Ru's cousin should be Jing Chi, so even if she were to protect someone, she should protect Jing Chi, not this cold-faced killer Leng Yan.
When Li Ying returned to the clinic, she heard from Sang Zhi that Chenchen had been taken away by Jing Chi.
"They said they were going to see fireworks, and Chenchen was so happy that he went along." Sang Zhi hesitated for a moment and then said, "Yingying, I think Chenchen still longs for his father's love. Although he doesn't say it, his eyes light up every time he sees Jing Chi."
Li Ying sat down, tapping her fingers lightly on the table, and said, "If Chenchen really needs a father, it shouldn't be Jing Chi."
Why?
Sang Zhi felt that Jing Chi was the most suitable. Not only did he look very similar to Ye Jingchi, but he also liked Chenchen. Wasn't that great? If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't treat Chenchen so well.
Li Ying tidied up the notes and said sullenly, "That aunt from the Jing family talked to me again. She made it very clear that her only son should be a suitable match in terms of social status and be useful to Jing Chi."
Sang Zhi stopped preparing the medicine and looked at Li Ying: "I think this Aunt Jing is very strange. She seems to be afraid of Jing Chi being with you."
Li Ying laughed: "If it were me, I might have the same worries. It would be hard to accept if someone's son, whom they finally found, married a woman with a child."
Sang Zhi rolled her eyes at Li Ying, then leaned closer and said, "Yingying, you used to live with Ye Jingchi, so you should know him well. Why don't you get to know Jing Chi more?"
Sang Zhi still believed that Jing Chi was Ye Jingchi. She did not believe in coincidences in this world, and she did not believe that there were two identical people in the world.
"actually……"
"Oh dear, let's get started now! I'll take care of the patients at the clinic today. You go find Chenchen, hurry up!" Sang Zhi urged.
After a moment of contemplation, Li Ying inexplicably left the clinic to find Chenchen.
Jing Chi took Chenchen to the beach to set off fireworks.
When Li Ying arrived, the two children, one big and one small, were circling around the fireworks. In the colorful sea of flowers, Jing Chi's smile was pure, and Chen Chen's smile was content.
"Mom!" Chenchen saw Li Ying first.
Jing Chi abandoned Chenchen, strode over, grabbed Li Ying, and brought her in front of Chenchen.
"Come on, let's set off fireworks together."
"Okay!" Chenchen was overjoyed.
Not wanting to spoil the atmosphere, Li Ying lit the fireworks along with them, and the three of them enjoyed themselves immensely around the beach.
After the fireworks ended, Chenchen got sleepy and fell asleep on Jingchi's back.
"Go home."
On the street, people would often say enviously, "Look at that family of three. The man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and their son is so good-looking too. They're so happy!"
