Chapter 354 Schemes
She had previously instigated Ji Xia's mother-in-law to scheme against her and speak ill of her; the two were practically enemies.
Ji Xia hadn't expected to run into her at this moment. Her gaze darkened slightly, and a wave of nausea rose in her heart. She was about to walk past her and leave.
But Song Yuqing had no intention of letting the matter rest. She looked down at the woman gently stroking her slightly protruding belly, her eyes flashing, and she scoffed coldly, "Oh, you're pregnant?"
Ji Xia paused, looked at her coldly, and asked, "What does this have to do with you?"
Song Yuqing sensed the disgust in her words, but feigned ignorance and sneered, "After all, we've known each other for so many years, can't I at least show some concern?"
"It seems your mother-in-law really is a jinx to you. Look, you got pregnant as soon as she left."
There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
When Ji Xia saw her bring up the old matter again, her eyes narrowed and a cold look flashed across her face. She said in a cold voice, "Isn't all of this thanks to you?" If it weren't for her stirring up trouble, how could she have suffered those years of injustice for no reason?
Then, with an ugly expression, he continued to scold, "I was too lazy to bother with you, but you insisted on coming here to die?"
Seeing the mockery in her eyes, Song Yuqing curled her lips slightly, revealing a hint of disdain, and immediately changed the subject, shifting the focus to Jiang Ran.
"By the way, I heard Jiang Ran is unconscious? Weren't you two on good terms? Could it be that she's getting her comeuppance for doing too many bad things?"
As he spoke, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his voice.
Ji Xia looked at her coldly, her brows furrowed, and retorted in a cold voice, "Speaking of bad things, you should be the one to take the blame first."
"Even if there is retribution, it should fall on you first! Why are you talking so tough now? Do you think that rich businessman you've hooked up with can really guarantee you a worry-free life?"
He paused slightly, a mocking smile playing on his lips, before continuing, "Then you'd better be careful. After all, what kind of guarantee can you get by selling your body?"
"Oh right... I don't know much about your industry. This kind of improper behavior is called 'chicken', right?"
Ji Xia's words were merciless, showing no mercy to Song Yuqing.
She deliberately raised her voice slightly when she spoke, which drew the attention of those around her, who looked at Song Yuqing with strange expressions.
Song Yuqing noticed the stares from those around her, and she almost ground her teeth to powder. Her expression towards Ji Xia was full of hatred.
She never expected that Ji Xia, with her usually gentle nature, would put her in such an embarrassing situation in front of everyone.
Anger surged within her, and she suddenly sneered, "What you're saying is interesting. Jiang Ran's life is hanging in the balance, and you're still being so rude. You really have a deep sisterly bond!"
The tone emphasized the last few words, full of sarcasm.
Seeing that she kept bringing up Jiang Ran, Ji Xia frowned slightly, feeling displeased. She said coldly, "I've heard there's a saying that shamelessness makes a person invincible. Today I've truly witnessed it."
Upon hearing this, Song Yuqing's expression changed drastically. Before she could refute him, Ji Xiafu continued, "You were the one who schemed against Jiang Ran for money, so how can you stand on the side of the victim and accuse others?"
"Because of her, I lost everything, and all my years of hard work were destroyed. Shouldn't I hate her?!" Song Yuqing's face twisted as she coldly accused her.
"She clearly liked Lu Ziyi so much before, but after Si Yanxiao woke up, didn't she just kick him away?"
"What kind of good person do you think she is? Once you're no longer of any use to you, what kind of good end do you think you'll have? You're all birds of a feather!"
Snap—
As soon as Song Yuqing finished speaking, Ji Xia raised her hand and slapped her hard across the face, her expression slightly cold and her face full of chill.
He then coldly retorted, "Who do you think you are, to presume to comment on our affairs?"
Song Yuqing covered the side of her cheek that had been hit with one hand, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes: "I'll fight you to the death!"
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Ji Xia's face.
Just then, the bodyguards hidden in the shadows stepped forward and restrained her by pinning her hands behind her back.
Ji Xia looked at her coldly, as if she were an ant.
Song Yuqing was instantly stung by Jiang Ran's condescending expression, which was exactly the same as Jiang Ran's expression when she mocked her before. She then started swearing and kept cursing.
Seeing Ji Xia's displeasure, the bodyguard exerted a little force, and Song Yuqing cried out in pain instantly.
The bodyguard then asked, "Madam, what should we do with this person?"
Ji Xia's eyes narrowed, and she replied coldly, "Throw her out onto the main road, and inform the mall's security department that this kind of person is prohibited from entering in the future."
"What gives you the right!" Song Yuqing shouted angrily. The reason she specifically chose this shopping mall was to use her supplementary card to enjoy the world of the upper class.
This shopping mall has a nationwide chain, and all the high-end brands are there. People who can afford to shop here are all wealthy and powerful.
What she found most intolerable was why Ji Xia could decide her coming and going with just a word.
Ji Xia's lips curled slightly, a hint of disdain flashing across her face. She slowly walked up to her and replied coldly, "Just because this shopping mall is under the Ji family's control."
"Song Yuqing, I advise you to use your brain before you try to kill yourself in the future. Don't do things that are beyond your capabilities like an idiot."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Song Yuqing raised her eyes and stared intently at her departing figure, her eyes filled with uncontrollable hatred.
She tried to struggle free, but the bodyguard forcefully threw her out the door. Song Yuqing stumbled and fell to the ground.
People on the street turned to look at her, and Bai Zhuwei felt like a monkey, a spectacle for everyone to watch, which was extremely embarrassing!
She quickly stood up, looked up and coldly stared at the mall. At this moment, she was so angry that she wanted to tear Ji Xia to pieces to vent her anger.
She originally just wanted to gloat, but she never expected to run into Ji Xia by sheer bad luck. Not only did she fail to achieve her goal, she was also taught a lesson by Ji Xia instead.
Song Yuqing has always been vengeful, so how could she possibly swallow this insult?
He stormed off, vowing to make Ji Xia pay for what she had done today!
They then hired people to monitor Ji Xia's residence for several days. Finally, they received news that Ji Xia was preparing to go to a temple to pray to the gods and Buddhas, donate some incense money, and do good deeds for her child.
Upon hearing this news, Song Yuqing's eyes flashed, and a plan instantly came to mind.
He then spoke in a deep voice and ordered, "Keep a close eye on them!"
"Okay." The paparazzi on the other end gave a brief reply, and Song Yuqing hung up the phone immediately.
After a moment's thought, he dialed an unknown number.
The phone rang for a long time before someone slowly answered. A gruff voice came through the receiver immediately: "Little beauty, what do you want?"
Ignoring the greasy tone in his words, Song Yuqing suppressed her discomfort and said with a forced smile, "Brother Li, there's something I need your help with."
"You will definitely be satisfied with the compensation..."
The people on the other side became instantly interested when they heard that money was involved, so Song Yuqing immediately explained her plan to them.
The man called Brother Li's eyes flashed, he hesitated for a moment, and then replied in a low voice, "Okay, I'll take this order."
"But this kind of thing does violate the law, and if it's just about money, it probably won't be so easy to talk about it..."
His tone was ambiguous, but Song Yuqing instantly understood his unspoken meaning.
He couldn't help but curse inwardly: Despicable!
But he still had to pretend that nothing was wrong. He steeled himself and replied in a deep voice, "Fine, as long as the matter can be resolved, you can name any conditions!"
What does selling one's body matter if it helps achieve one's goals?!
A lewd laugh came from the other end of the line. Song Yuqing suppressed the disgust in her heart, said a few more words, and then hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, the driver had to take leave, so Ji Xia rarely went out alone.
Fortunately, the pregnancy wasn't too far along, so driving wasn't a problem.
As soon as she drove out of the villa, a car immediately followed behind her.
There was a sharp turn on the way to the temple. While passing other cars, a car suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Ji Xia was startled and swerved to dodge to the side, but was instead hit by the car and crashed into the mountainside.
With a loud bang, the front of the car instantly caved in, and the entire car body twisted and deformed.
Ji Xia's head slammed into the windshield due to the force of the impact, and blood gushed from her forehead instantly.
