Chapter 803: Life Needs Surprises
"Just tell me, will you help me?"
Wu Sijing looked down on Xu Jiajia's cowardice. With such little courage, how could she fight Liu Liang? No wonder she lost so miserably.
Fortunately, Xu Jiajia didn't know what Wu Sijing was thinking at the moment, otherwise she would have really said something back to her.
You are capable and brave, so who is living like a dog now?
Xu Jiajia looked up and met Wu Sijing's gloomy face. Her eyes were ignited by hatred, which made Xu Jiajia's heart uneasy.
Yes, why not take revenge? Why not? It
wasn't her who did it anyway.
Now, she could use someone else's hands to get rid of that annoying woman, and she couldn't ask for more.
"How do you want me to help you?"
Xu Jiajia lowered her voice. "As long as I can kill that woman, I'm willing to do anything for you."
Wu Sijing's face, covered by heavy makeup, twisted again.
A moth flew toward a nearby streetlight and crashed into it hard...
"A-choo..."
Liu Liang sneezed, then rubbed her nose.
Unable to hold it back, she sneezed again.
"What's wrong?"
Zeng Xubai sat down and pinched her red nose. "Did you catch a cold last night because you didn't cover yourself with the quilt?"
"No."
Liu Liang sneezed several times in a row. She had covered herself well last night; the quilt wasn't missing.
"Someone must be thinking of me."
Liu Liang picked up a bag of snacks from the table, popped one into her mouth, and it tasted pretty good.
"I bought these for Dabao and Xiaobao."
Pu Xubai was speechless at Liu Liang, the older sister. How could an older sister steal her younger brother's food? He had bought a whole bag, intending to give it to Dabao and Xiaobao, but Liu Liang had hijacked it halfway through the journey, and now he couldn't give it away anymore.
Liu Liang had eaten it all.
"Just buy more," Liu Liang patted her chest. "I'm rich, no worries."
She was quite wealthy now. She'd performed several surgeries recently, and the consultation fees were quite high. Several people had even collected their fees in advance, so she couldn't refuse them.
"By the way, how's Old Man Ling doing?"
Liu Liang hadn't had time to visit him lately. She knew he was fine, having woken up long ago, and that everyone in the Ling family, including Ling Shiyang, was there. Eighty percent of them had gone home to recuperate.
She didn't really want to go because she might run into Ling Shiyang, fearing the prospect of resorting to violence.
"He's been discharged,"
Zeng Xubai poured a glass of water and placed it on the table, knowing that Liu Liang would need another drink after finishing her snacks.
"Ling Shiyang took Xu Jiajia there once."
"And then..."
Liu Liang squeezed the snacks hard. "Did he soften his heart?"
She agreed. If that was the case, then her sincerity was ultimately misplaced, and the medicine had been wasted.
"No, he beat the man out. He was so angry that he almost had to be hospitalized. Now, for the sake of Elder Ling's health, the Ling family is no longer willing to let Liu Lingshiyang show up. The real power in Ling Shiyang's hands has also been taken back a lot."
"Even if they're kicked out, they won't starve to death,"
Liu Liang snorted. A lean camel is still bigger than a horse. The Ling family is far richer than the Zeng family. Ling Shiyang is incredibly clever. Even without the Ling family, he wouldn't have starved. Besides his limited abilities, he also has many tricks up his sleeve. Besides, he still has his parents. Even if Old Man Ling kicks her out, there's always someone to help.
But then, he
'll have to help the Xu family. As long as Old Man Ling doesn't agree, Xu Jiajia won't have a good life. The last thing Liu Liang wants is Old Man Ling's softness.
Zeng Xubai placed his hand on Liu Liang's face, pulling her toward him.
"Doctor Liu, there's something you need to know."
He spoke seriously, his expression etched in earnest, and Liu Liang listened even more intently.
But...
Liu Liang blinked. What did she want to know?
Should she cover her ears and scream, "I'm not listening! I'm not listening! I'm not listening to a word!"
"The Ling family will accept them sooner or later."
Pu Xubai knew that Liu Jing would understand. After all, they were a family. No matter how much she did, she was still an outsider. Even if she saved Old Ling a few more times and Old Ling disagreed, if they had a child in the end, Old Ling's heart would still soften.
After all, people are made of flesh and blood, not stone.
Liu Jing picked up an apple from the table and took a big bite.
"I know."
Indeed, she was such a clear-headed little cutie.
She knew everything and understood everything. She used to think too simply, but now she understands that she was too naive.
"Do you want me to help you?"
Zeng Xubai just didn't understand. Obviously, he was so annoying, so why didn't he take action? If he had intervened, the Xu family would have been broken up long ago.
"I'll avenge my own grudge."
Liu Jing hadn't considered asking anyone for help. To be frank, the only members of the Xu family she held a grudge against were Xu Jiajia's family of three and Xu Baiyu. She didn't hold any deep grudges against the others, so she didn't attack them. She simply didn't want them to be affected by Xu Jiajia's actions. To put it bluntly, she wasn't tough enough, wasn't ruthless enough. She
couldn't bring herself to annihilate them all.
Of course, on the other hand, she also wanted the Xu family to always remember who had caused the Xu family's downfall: Xu Jiajia and her parents.
"What are you going to do when you get down here? Are you just going to leave it alone?"
Zeng Xubai hadn't sensed Liu Jing's intentions of interfering. She'd been so busy with work lately that she hadn't even considered visiting Elder Ling, hadn't even called him, and wasn't asking him for anything.
Was she truly leaving it all alone?
Waiting for too long, would others automatically forgive, or simply accept it with resigned resignation?
Liu Jing didn't seem the type to repay kindness with kindness.
"Of course not."
Liu Jing took another hard bite of the apple, "Believe me, they can't live in peace for the rest of their lives."
"Huh?"
Zeng Xubai still didn't understand?
Liu Jing knew that Zeng Xubai was curious, but she didn't want to say it now.
"Believe me, it will be soon."
Liu Jing calculated the time in her mind, "No more than half a month, you will know in half a year, life needs surprises."
After she finished speaking, she placed the apple in her hand in front of Zeng Xubai, and said, "Come and eat the apple, peacefully and smoothly."
Zeng Xubai took a big bite directly on the apple. This was really cruel. He bit off half of the apple. Liu Jing took the apple back and ate the whole apple in a few more bites.
