Chapter 98 Getting Closer to the Xie Siblings Will Lead to Misfortune
"What did you say?"
Li Xi felt a jolt, as if she were walking down the street and had been hit on the head by a flowerpot thrown from a high-rise building.
She was completely numb from being hit.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Jiang Qingkong still maintained her haughty and arrogant demeanor. "I'm saying, the person who saved Gu Huaizhou 12 years ago was not Xie Jiaoyue, but you, Li Xi."
Jiang Qingkong spoke clearly, enunciating each word distinctly, and asked, "Did you understand?"
She understood what he said.
But Li Xi didn't understand this matter.
"I never saved Gu Huaizhou..." Li Xi stopped abruptly as soon as she said this.
Did she really never save Gu Huaizhou?
Strictly speaking, it's that she doesn't remember whether she saved Gu Huaizhou or not.
"Jiang Qingkong, who told you this?"
Jiang Qingkong frankly admitted, "I was eavesdropping."
Li Xi suddenly realized, "You were injured that night because you overheard this secret?"
Jiang Qingkong stopped talking at this moment.
Clearly, Li Xi guessed correctly.
Li Xi, who had originally planned to leave, thought about it and turned back to the ward.
She asked Jiang Qingkong, "Are you thirsty? Would you like me to pour you a glass of water?"
Jiang Qingkong directly criticized her: "Li Xi, you're like those scumbags who tell their girlfriends to drink more hot water when they're sick."
Li Xi: "..."
He can still swear; he must be in good spirits.
"Don't feel bad about it, and don't expect me to be grateful for your blood donation."
Jiang Qingkong said with her neck stiff, "I am suffering this because I overheard a secret about you. I am implicated because of you."
"Your blood donation will help me get through this ordeal."
"We owe each other nothing."
Li Xi had the same idea, "Alright, we'll be even."
"Can you drink the water I poured for you now?" Li Xi had already unscrewed the lid of the thermos and was just waiting for Jiang Daqianjin to nod.
"...That's troublesome."
Li Xi mixed boiled water with cooled boiled water, and when she felt the temperature was about right, she handed it to Jiang Qingkong.
Jiang Qingkong drank the water in the cup in one gulp.
Seeing this, Li Xi asked, "Didn't your family hire anyone to take care of you?"
"I hired a caregiver, but she didn't sleep well last night, so I let her go to the next room to catch up on her sleep."
Hearing this, Li Xi was quite surprised, "You actually have this kind heart?"
Jiang Qingkong rolled her eyes and refused to chat with Li Xi anymore.
Li Xi smiled slightly, took the cup and placed it on the bedside table, then asked Jiang Qingkong, "You and Xie Xingyun..."
"Don't worry, I won't get a divorce."
Just as Li Xi was about to suspect that Jiang Qingkong was love-struck, she heard Jiang Qingkong say, "Once I'm fully recovered, I want to go back to the Xie family."
“I’m going to push him off the second floor. You’ve lived in the Xie family’s house before, so you should know that the staircase between the second and first floors is the longest.”
"Falling from the second floor is the worst and most painful."
“He made me lose a child, and I’ll make him lose his manhood.” Jiang Qingkong smiled slightly and said, “This is a family matter between husband and wife.”
"He pushed me down the stairs, so I retaliated in kind. Is that too much to ask?"
Li Xi raised an eyebrow, suppressing a laugh, and said, "It's reasonable, fair, and just, and not excessive."
Jiang Qingkong asked Li Xi, "If I want to get revenge on your ex-boyfriend, will you feel sorry for me? You wouldn't go and expose me, would you?"
Li Xi shook her head and said, "I've said it before, I stopped loving him a long time ago."
"In my eyes, he is not my ex-boyfriend; he is just a rapist who attempted to rape me."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingkong felt relieved.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have been so stupid as to let Xie Jiaoyue use me as a pawn."
Now that things have come to this, Jiang Qingkong has nothing to hide. She tells Li Xi, "To tell you the truth, there's no way my brain could possibly discover the relationship between Xie Xingyun and you."
“I remember once, I went to a party and overheard a few women talking about Xie Xingyun, saying that he had a secret lover he had been dating for many years.”
"After learning about this, I immediately went to find Xie Jiaoyue."
"I simply asked Xie Xingyun if he had a secret lover, and Xie Jiaoyue covered her mouth, looking surprised, and asked me if I had seen you going to see Xie Xingyun?"
Jiang Qingkong cursed, "Knowing that my boyfriend's secret lover is his adopted daughter, do you think I, with my terrible temper, can tolerate that?"
“I secretly observed, and sure enough, I caught Xie Xingyun looking at you furtively.”
At this point, Jiang Qingkong paused to observe Li Xi's reaction.
Seeing Li Xi's calm and composed expression, she suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, like punching cotton. "You're not angry at all?"
Li Xi: "I guessed it long ago."
What Jiang Qingkong said was almost exactly the truth that Li Xi had guessed.
Xie Jiaoyue is indeed an old green tea plant from 86.
The tea is truly fragrant and mellow.
Upon learning that Li Xi had guessed the truth based solely on speculation, Jiang Qingkong felt admiration for her, saying, "Then you are a bit smarter than me."
She's the one who's stupid.
After being used as a pawn, they didn't even realize that they were being used by Xie Jiaoyue.
It wasn't until she married into the Xie family and was confronted by Xie Jiaoyue that she belatedly realized that Xie Jiaoyue had been using her all along.
"I admit, it was my own idea to drug you."
"Because I'm jealous of you and I despise you. The thought of having to share a room with you after I marry into the Xie family makes me feel disgusted."
"I'll only be happy if I ruin your reputation and kick you out of the Xie family."
"Of course, I'm not saying this to gain your forgiveness, nor do I expect you to forgive me. I'm just reminding you that I believe the Xie siblings will make you unhappy."
After carefully listening to Jiang Qingkong's advice, Li Xi nodded and said, "You're right. Getting close to the Xie siblings can indeed make one unhappy."
"I will never trust anyone from the Xie family again."
Li Xi stood up to say goodbye, but then, remembering something, asked Jiang Qingkong, "Do you remember what Jiang Xinghe did that night to rescue you from the Xie family?"
Upon hearing Jiang Xinghe's name, Jiang Qingkong immediately fell silent.
For once, a look of shame appeared on the face of this spoiled and domineering woman.
Those almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears.
Seeing this reaction, Li Xi knew that Jiang Qingkong knew everything.
“My mother told me.” Jiang Qingkong wiped away her tears and stubbornly looked out the window. She said, “Jiang Xinghe took gasoline and set fire to the Xie family’s house, which forced Xie Xingyun to hand me over.”
"he..."
Jiang Qingkong began to sob.
She pulled the blanket over her face and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Li Xi didn't feel any sympathy for Jiang Qingkong.
For the fact that she hid Jiang Xinghe's mother's memorial tablet in a pile of horse manure, she never deserves Jiang Xinghe's forgiveness in this lifetime.
"Although you are not born of the same mother, Jiang Xinghe has always held a shred of affection for you."
“Jiang Qingkong, if you have any humanity left, you should take the initiative to kneel down and apologize to him.”
"He may not forgive you, but you cannot fail to apologize."
After saying that, Li Xi left and went straight to the driving school test center to take the third subject test.
Gu Zhen is still in a meeting on the island and cannot come to accompany them to the exam, so Coach Qin will accompany them to the exam today.
Xie Jian is also there.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and Xie Jian is dressed like a baby snake about to hibernate.
She was wearing a fleece baseball jacket and a fluffy fisherman's hat, which looked very warm.
Seeing that Li Xi was carrying a bag of medicine from St. Anne's Hospital, Xie Jian made a rare joke: "Everyone else goes to burn incense and pray before their driving test, why are you going to the hospital?"
Li Xi said, "I go to the hospital to donate blood to accumulate merit, and I'm sure I'll pass it all today."
"Is it?"
As it turns out, one shouldn't be too certain, because Li Xi failed in the very first round.
