Chapter 169 This time, I'm truly doing this for your own good.
“Dad, Jiang Youli said she can wake Jiang Zhao up. If we mess with Aunt now and anger her, Jiang Zhao might really not wake up.” Jiang Xing still tried to persuade her father.
Jiang Yangxu sneered, "Is that so? She says she can wake Jiang Zhao up, that's even better! As long as we get Zhang Susu under control, I'm not afraid that Jiang Youli will dare not obey us and do whatever we tell her to do. Whether it's your poison or whether Jiang Zhao can wake up or not, we'll solve it all!"
Jiang Xing knew her father's decisive nature and knew she couldn't stop him from dealing with her aunt Zhang Susu, so she remained silent.
Jiang Yangxu looked at his eldest son, whom he had high hopes for, with a sense of disappointment and said, "The senior prosthetic expert I found for you has arrived. Anyway, Starlight Entertainment will be officially handed over to Jiang Youli next month. Don't go to the company these few days. Stay home and cooperate with the expert to get your prosthetic leg replaced."
Jiang Xing hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up, saying, "Dad, although my leg is lame, I can still walk. If I get a prosthetic leg, it will have to be amputated..."
Jiang Yangxu interrupted again, saying, "I will not allow my son, the future heir of the Jiang family, to be a cripple! Since you could endure the poison Jiang Youli gave you for so long, you'll have to endure the pain of getting a prosthetic limb!"
Jiang Xing fell silent again.
"Take these few days to reflect on why you were ruined by a little girl like Jiang Youli!" After saying that, Jiang Yangxu ignored his eldest son and walked towards the study, taking out his phone and dialing the housekeeper's number.
"Old Zhao, there's something I need you to do. If you do it well, I'll let you go back to the Jiang family and work for me..."
In the lobby, Jiang Xing hesitated for a moment before finally getting up and leaving the West District villa.
He made one last effort. If Jiang Youli was willing to put aside her grudges, cure his poison, and wake Jiang Zhao up immediately, perhaps his father would calm down and give up his idea of harming his aunt.
Upon reaching the villa's gate, Jiang Xing took out his phone and dialed Jiang Youli's number.
While anxiously waiting, thankfully the call connected with Jiang Youli.
Jiang Xing breathed a sigh of relief, "Xiao Li."
The person on the other end of the phone replied coldly, "What is it?"
Hearing Jiang Youli's cold tone, Jiang Xing's heart skipped a beat, but he still patiently said, "Xiao Li, didn't you say before that you could wake Jiang Zhao up? So could you please go to the hospital right now and wake him up as soon as possible? As long as you can wake Jiang Zhao up, I will agree to any conditions."
Jiang Youli sneered and said, "Jiang Xing, you have already lost your right to inheritance. What conditions do you have left to meet my demands?"
Her question was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Jiang Xing's heart, leaving him speechless for a moment.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Xing gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Li, I'm doing this for your own good. You'd better cure me of the poison immediately before waking Jiang Zhao up, otherwise..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Youli interrupted him.
A sneer came from the other end. "Otherwise what? Otherwise, would I suffer a terrible fate? After all this time, all you can do is threaten and intimidate? Jiang Xing, let me tell you, I can wake Jiang Zhao up whenever I want. It's not your place to order him around. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up. I thought you had something else to tell me."
"Jiang Youli, why can't you just listen to me this once! I'm begging you! I'm really doing this for your own good this time!"
"Oh, so all your previous apologies and so-called attempts to make amends weren't for my own good?" Jiang Youli scoffed again. "Forget it, Jiang Xing, you're only thinking of being good to me now? I'm already disgusted."
After saying that, the other end of the phone hung up.
Jiang Xing put down her phone, looked in the direction of the villa in the East District, and muttered to herself, "I've tried my best, Jiang Youli. It's your fault for not listening to me. If something really happens to your mother, don't blame me."
……
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Youli stared at her phone for a long time.
Jiang Xing's phone call just now was strange. I suppose he knew something and deliberately called to remind me?
She suddenly remembered her conversation with Qi Huan at noon, and an idea popped into her head.
Thinking of this, Jiang Youli's eyes were instantly covered with a layer of frost, so cold that it seemed to freeze the surrounding air.
She dialed the phone number of the beautiful new mother.
The call was quickly answered, and Zhang Susu's gentle voice, as always, came through: "Youli, what's wrong?"
Upon hearing that familiar and warm voice, the coldness in Jiang Youli's eyes vanished as quickly as if it had encountered warm sunshine.
Instead, there are twinkling, coquettish gestures.
"Mom, where are you now?"
"What's wrong? Is there something you can't resolve at home?"
"No, I just missed you~"
Zhang Susu on the other end of the phone couldn't help but chuckle and replied, "Oh, I'll be home right away!"
"Okay~"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Youli's eyes turned icy cold once again.
Is he trying to seduce the beautiful new mom?
She'll let Jiang Yangxu's family know that messing with the beautiful new mother will have far worse consequences than messing with her!
……
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Susu immediately told her best friend, who was patiently instructing her on baking techniques, "My daughter called. She's so clingy; she said she misses me. I have to go back right away!"
Hearing this, her best friend looked up at Zhang Susu's face, which couldn't hide her joy, and couldn't help but smile and tease, "Susu, you're learning baking and making cakes from me for your daughter, right?"
Zhang Susu nodded, "Yes, her birthday is in November, and I was thinking of making her a cake myself."
"Haha, look how happy you are! It seems you really, really love your daughter." Her best friend teased with a smile.
When Zhang Susu thought of Jiang Youli, happiness welled up in her heart. "Youli is a really smart and outstanding child. She is generous and dares to love and hate, but she is also soft and delicate inside. It's hard not to like her."
Seeing that her eyes softened as she spoke, her best friend quickly smiled and urged, "Alright, since you miss your precious daughter so much, stop dawdling and hurry up and pack your things to go home!"
"Okay, I'll come back to study with you again tomorrow." Zhang Susu washed her hands, took off her apron, picked up her bag, and walked towards the door. "I'll be going now."
As her best friend watched her retreating figure, she couldn't help but sigh: "I never imagined that my best friend, who never showed much emotion no matter what, would now have someone she cares about."
After leaving her best friend's house, Zhang Susu got into the car and instructed, "Old Zhang, let's go back."
After giving her instructions, she picked up her phone and started searching online for various birthday cake designs to get some inspiration.
The car doors locked automatically, and the car began to move slowly.
Tired of looking at the countless birthday cake designs online, Zhang Susu finally looked up and realized the car was going the wrong way. She said in surprise, "Old Zhang, this isn't the way back to the Jiang family home..."
