Jing Yunyao and the others noticed that. Actually, they didn’t hate Jiang Shuyuan. If Jing Yunyao hated her, she wouldn’t have reminded Leng Yuanqian that Jing Yunyao wasn’t in a good condition. She wouldn’t have tolerated Jiang Shuyuan for so long for the sake of Master Leng. She could have taught Jiang Shuyuan a lesson long ago.
Even though she didn’t hate Jiang Shuyuan, it wasn’t easy for her to like Jiang Shuyuan, and she was reluctant to form a good relationship with Jiang Shuyuan. It was her idea to maintain harmony on the surface because she didn’t want Master Leng to feel bad.
Master Leng was physically better now, but he was old. He preferred to have a harmonious family.
Compared with Jiang Shuyuan, Jing Yunyao disliked Leng Shaojia a lot more, even hating her.
No matter how Jiang Shuyuan picked on her and Leng Shaoting, she was only being mean to them. However, Leng Shaojia directly paid a killer to kill Gu Ning! Even though Leng Shaojia had only targeted Gu Ning, Gu Ning was her daughter-in-law and she was very protective of Gu Ning.
Besides, back then, Master Leng, Leng Shaoting, Leng Yuanzhen and his wife were also present.
What if other people were injured?
Although all of them were fine in the end, Leng Shaojia’s actions were illegal.
Also, for Master Leng’s sake, Gu Ning only taught her a lesson, instead of having her put in jail.
If Leng Shaojia was arrested she would be sentenced to many years in jail. Whereas, if she was injured by Gu Ning, she could make a full recovery in about half a year.
…
Gu Ning had lunch with Jing Yunyao, but she didn’t rush to leave. Instead, she stayed in the living room and chatted with them for a while.
This time, Jiang Shuyuan didn’t go upstairs by herself. She sat together with everyone else, but she said nothing, since she didn’t know what to say.
When it was almost 2 pm, Jiang Shuyuan’s phone rang so she walked aside to answer it.
Before long, she exclaimed. “What? Dad’s in danger?”
Hearing that, everyone stopped talking and turned to look at Jiang Shuyuan.
Master Jiang was in danger?
Master Leng and the others were worried, but Jiang Shuyuan was on the phone. They couldn’t interrupt her, so they decided to wait till she finished.
“Sure, I’ll be right there.” Jiang Shuyuan replied, then immediately hung up.
“What happened to your father?” Once Jiang Shuyuan hung up, Master Leng asked in a hurry.
“My mom said that my dad fainted all of a sudden. It should be a case of cerebral infarction [1. Also called a stroke. It occurs due to obstruction of blood to the brain.], because my dad didn’t make a full recovery from the last time. He’s on the way to the hospital now,” said Jiang Shuyuan anxiously.
“I’ll go with you,” said Master Leng, then he stood up at once. After all, they had an alliance, so Master Leng should visit Master Jiang.
“Dad, Ningning and I will go with you! I don’t think you should go alone,” said Jing Yunyao. Actually, she wasn’t worried about Master Leng. She simply had the intention to save Master Jiang.
Although Jiang Shuyuan wasn’t pleasant, Master Jiang was a good man.
In fact, even though she wanted to save Master Jiang, she couldn’t do much about it. So Gu Ning would do it. She also thought of this because Gu Ning signaled to her.
Gu Ning felt that Master Jiang had a family relationship with Master Leng, so she wanted to help him since Master Leng looked so nervous. She didn’t want Master Leng to be sad.
“You…” Master Leng wanted to turn them down, but he suddenly thought of something, so he changed his mind. “Great.”
“Let me get Yuanqian.” Jiang Shuyuan didn’t mind Jing Yunyao and Gu Ning going with them. She hurriedly rushed upstairs since Leng Yuanqian had gone back to his study because needed to deal with some documents.
Once Jiang Shuyuan was away, Master Leng turned to ask Gu Ning, “Ningning, can your medicine save Master Jiang?”
“Master Leng, don’t worry. As long as Master Jiang hasn’t breathed his last breath I’ll do my best,” said Gu Ning. At the beginning, Gu Ning only felt that Master Jiang had a family relationship with Master Leng, but now she felt she had to save Master Jiang after hearing Master Leng’s question.
“Great, great, thank you so much, Ningning.” Master Leng was very grateful. Even if Gu Ning wasn’t going to save him, Master Jiang was important to the Leng family. He didn’t want anything bad to happen to Master Jiang.
He was old, so it was heartbreaking for him to see familiar people get sick and die. If it was possible for Gu Ning to save Master Jiang, he would hope that she could.
“Master Leng, I’m afraid that they won’t believe me, and will refuse to take my medicine. Can you keep the medicine and present it later?” said Gu Ning. After all, it had happened many times before, and she was annoyed at being questioned again and again. If it was possible, it was better for Master Leng to mention it.
She was a young girl, while Master Leng was widely-respected. Other people would surely choose to trust Master Leng instead of her.
They also had a close relationship with Master Leng, not her. Why would they trust her?
“Sure.” Master Leng agreed. He understood that the situation Gu Ning just described could happen, so he would deal with it.
Even if the Jiang family doubted him as well, they would yield for the sake of his face. As long as Master Jiang got better, no one would blame him.
Therefore, Gu Ning took out a bottle containing three power crystals and handed it to Master Leng. Master Leng then took it.
“After I check Master Jiang’s condition, I’ll tell you how many pills he needs to take,” said Gu Ning. If Master Jiang was seriously sick, a single pill would not be enough, because the medicine couldn’t come to effect.
If Master Jiang wasn’t seriously sick, a single pill would be enough.
“Of course,” said Master Leng.
…
Before long, Leng Yuanqian rushed downstairs with Jiang Shuyuan. Because Leng Shaojia wasn’t home, she didn’t go with them.
“You two can stay home!” Master Leng said to Leng Yuanzhen and Leng Yuanzhen’s wife. He wouldn’t make them go with him, because it wasn’t necessary.
Although Jiang Shuyuan’s father had a family relationship with the Leng family, he wasn’t close to Leng Yuanzhen and Yu Yin, so they didn’t need to visit him.
After all, Master Jiang wasn’t dying, and it would be too serious if they also went with.
“Sure,” said Leng Yuanzhen and Yu Yin.
After that, Master Leng and the others set off.
Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao shared a car with Master Leng, so there wasn’t enough room for bodyguards.
The chauffeur was driving the car. Jing Yunyao sat in the front passenger’s seat, while Gu Ning and Master Leng sat in the back.
