781 Li Jing's Wish
**************
CHAPTER 781
It just would never end with the duo, would it? Li Jing thought.
After all the time of fighting with each other, Li Jing did not expect Li Xiu to utter such sorry excuse words as a comeback to annoy her.
"I guess it is expected of the daughter of the Li family to be found outside, servicing men and not by her parents' side when they need her."
Liu Xiu's face turned into a grimace. She could not believe Li Jing had called her a whore.
"How dare you speak to me in such a manner when you… you…"
"What?" Li Jing questioned, folding her arms under her bosom. "Did the cat get your tongue or something?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe gritted her teeth; this was not going the way she had hoped. Hopeless on the right words to use to get back at Li Jing, she was tongue-tied and stupefied.
Had her mother not intervened when she did, Li Xiu would remain lost before her nemesis.
"Li Jing you still have the guts to speak before my family after the nonsense stunt you pulled this morning that landed my husband in the hospital."
All Li Jing swept her a cold glare, keeping Ding Jiaying in place. She was not ready for their nuisance and only wished the old man would spill the truth and save her the stress.
"I never caused anything for your family. Whatever you get, they are the fruits of the seed you sowed. Never forget that. If your husband was not trying to make things difficult for me and himself, he would not have landed here."
"What are you saying? How dare you speak about Li Chun like that," Ding Jiaying thundered as she lifted her hand to slap Li Jing.
"First of all, I am not your husband, secondly no one would stop me when I chose to retaliate or have the whole Li family arrested for assault on the Chairman of the Ye Group's wife."
Ding Jiaying's eyes widened in shock. She did not know how Li Jing seemed to have grown bolder ever since she left their house.
This was the same girl who would cower before them when they maltreated her before in the past.
"Not only that, even two of you put together cannot hurt a strand of hair on my head. Secondly, had you not been rude to interrupt your husband when he met with a guest, you will not have found yourself here, just the way your cheap slut of a daughter did when she arrived. Bunch of monkeys jumping to a conclusion."
Her face contorted into a frown, showing them her disgust as she waited for whatever sorry excuse they would have for themselves.
"Next time you two so much as try to find trouble, think of the words you wish to say as they could be used against you in the court of law. I will not spare anyone who needs to feel my wrath."
"Get out," Li Xiu spat out bitterly. She was growing impatient and unable to take this insult further. "We do not want to see you around us. Get out."
"I hope you can solidly say that when your father's business on which you stand crumbles more than it already has? At this point, all that needs to make the building fall is a light push and it would come crashing down."
Her eyes held her anger but when the corners of her lips lifted up at the side, Li Xiu knew they were in for some soup.
"I'll be sure to applaud you when it happens."
She dipped her hand into her bag, took out a cheque note and pen then scribbled an amount on it, appended her signature and handed it to Ding Jiaying.
"I know you will ask for compensation or payments to cover his hospital bill. Here, two hundred thousand yuan. It is enough to foot the bill to check his health and get him drugs."
Ding Jiaying and Li Xiu's eyes lowered to Li Jing's hand to see the cheque in her hands.
"I need him alive more than you two and since I contributed to his health going under, this is my part. It would do everyone good if you two know how to take care of him for once in your life."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough Ding Jiaying hesitated, she was soon clutching hard to the notes as though her life depended on it.
One thing she knew, Li Chun was not financially stable to spend on them like that. This would cover his bill and leave a past for them to buy some things.
Keeping her pen back, Li Jing shook her hair from her face, smiling at the stupefied duo.
"Let's try not to cross each other and warn that maid of yours. The next time wouldn't be nice."
"Li Jing just because you paid for father's health is not reason enough for you to meddle in the affairs of our family," Li Xiu countered.
"No wonder the family is looking worse than it used to be especially if your mum lets you run around like a loose dog. Last warning, your next rebellious act would not spare you from my wrath. Behave Li Xiu."
She did not spare them any more insults and walked away. All she knew, they had no reason to make Li Chun suffer in the hospital otherwise it would not bode well for them.
She needed him alive to find her mother. After that, she promised not to ever cross paths with the Li's anymore.
By the time she entered the elevator and left, Li Xiu cursed out loud. She hated that with all they did to Li Jing, she kept climbing up while she, Li Xiu was left to struggle.
"Urrghhh damn it!" She bellowed in rage. No sooner had she done that than the glare of two nurses was shot her way.
"Watch it, Young Lady. This is a hospital, not some nightclub."
Embarrassed by her daughter's actions, Ding Jiaying gave them an apology as she pulled Li Xiu with her to the staircase.
"Come here, you senseless fool and do not embarrass me further."
