Chapter 214 I messed with the wrong person!!!
too frightening.
Even now, recalling the dream still terrifies Xu Ruoying.
Hearing her daughter's words, Mrs. Xu was even more distressed and heartbroken. She hugged Xu Ruoying tightly and cried, "Daughter, my poor daughter!"
Xu Ruoying keenly sensed that something was wrong, and it was at this moment that she noticed that the surrounding environment had changed.
This is not the Xu family's residence.
This isn't her bedroom either!
This is... a hospital?
Thinking of this, Xu Ruoying's expression immediately changed. She raised her hand to touch her left eye, but she didn't touch her eye; she only felt a thick gauze.
Could it be...
Was that not a dream?
Was everything really true?
Do not!
impossible.
How could she possibly be disfigured and blind?
Xu Ruoying completely broke down. She raised her hand to tear off the gauze, but Mrs. Xu hugged her tightly. "Ruoying, Ruoying, calm down. Since it has already happened, just accept it slowly!"
"Your father has already booked the best plastic surgeon for you."
Hearing her mother's words, Xu Ruoying was even more devastated. She jumped out of bed and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror. When she saw herself with scars all over her face and missing an eye, she screamed in terror.
"Ahhhh!!!"
Unable to accept herself like this, Xu Ruoying tore off the gauze covering her eyes, revealing her newly stitched wounds. Seeing her current appearance, Xu Ruoying lost her mind and frantically banged her head against the mirror.
Unable to stop her daughter from self-harming, Mrs. Xu could only call a doctor. After receiving a sedative injection, Xu Ruoying finally calmed down.
Mrs. Xu sat by the hospital bed, wiping away tears. "My poor daughter! How is she going to live her life from now on!"
"Stop crying!" Mr. Xu looked at Mrs. Xu, frowning, and said, "You should be more worried about this fool's bet with Miss Shi!"
That's one percent of the shares.
Mr. Xu only just learned about this.
He never imagined his daughter would gamble with her shares!
They are so incredibly arrogant and ignorant.
Mrs. Xu said with red eyes, "Our Ruoying is already in this state. If Shisheng still cares about that bet, then she is too heartless! Besides, it's just a bet. Even if we don't acknowledge it, what can she do to us?"
At worst, people will say I'm untrustworthy; it's not like I did anything illegal.
Mr. Xu pressed his temples. "Do you even know what that idiot did?! She signed an agreement with someone. If Miss Shi hires a lawyer to sue, we're guaranteed to lose!"
This is why Mr. Xu was so angry.
Hearing this, Mrs. Xu was stunned.
Why, how could this happen?

City A.
Jiang Family Villa.
Jiang Ning sat at her desk, her ten fingers flying across the black keyboard, so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
She hacked into the database.
We found Rong Xiaoju's information.
Rong Xiaoju.
Gender: Female.
Age: 60 years old.
When Jiang Ning saw the age column, she frowned slightly. The age seemed a bit off. If Rong Xiaoju was Sister Mei, then she would have been at least 40 years old when she went to work as a nanny at her family's house.
But the old lady said that Sister Mei was only in her early thirties at the time.
How is this going?
Jiang Ning continued reading the information and quickly discovered that Rong Xiaoju had a younger sister named Rong Xiaomei, who was 50 years old.
Moreover, Rong Xiaomei in the photo looks more like Sister Mei.
Could it be.
Is the real Yung Siu-mei the real Sister Mei?
The further down Jiang Ning looked, the deeper her brows furrowed.
Because the information shows:
Rong Xiaomei.
They have gone missing.
Time of disappearance: 20 years.
The timing was perfect.
If Lian Rong Xiaomei is indeed related to the incident back then, then where did she go?
Could the body have been disposed of to cover up the crime?!
It seems.
To get to the bottom of this matter, we need to start from the source.
The source of this is naturally Rong Xiaoju.
Jiang Ning felt that something was off about Rong Xiaoju. She took out her phone, opened WeChat, and forwarded Rong Xiaoju's information to someone whose WeChat contact was labeled "M".
Please keep an eye on this person for me in the near future.
Don't miss any phone calls or messages.
The other party quickly replied with an "ok".
After finishing this task, Jiang Ning turned off her computer and prepared to take a bath and go to bed.

the next day.
Sunday.
The Yue family.
At 10:00 a.m., Yue Qianlan had just finished breakfast when she received a call from an unknown number.
"Hello."
A rough male voice came from the other end of the line, "Are you Miss Yue Qianlan? I'm from the errand company. Miss Jiang Ning has delivered something to you. Please come to the door to pick it up."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Yue Qianlan texted Jiang Ning as she walked out: "Ningning, what did you send me?"
"You'll know when you get to the door." Jiang Ning replied instantly.
Soon, we arrived at the door.
As soon as the door opened, Jiang Ning was standing outside.
Yue Qianlan was stunned and said in disbelief, "Ningning!"
"March!"
The two young girls excitedly embraced each other.
Yue Qianlan said excitedly, "Ningning, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I'd come pick you up from the airport!"
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Isn't this just to give you a surprise?"
"Come on, come on, come inside with me!"
“Okay.” Jiang Ning followed Yue Qianlan’s footsteps.
Yue Qianlan had snacks and drinks brought over. "My parents aren't home today, it's just me and my brother. Ningning, please have a seat. I'll go say hello to my brother."
After saying that, Yue Qianlan went upstairs.
Yue Qianlan's older brother, Yue Qianlou, is 25 years old and currently pursuing a master's degree.
"Brother, get up quickly, Ningning is here."
Yue Qianlou stayed up all night playing games and was sleeping soundly. He couldn't be bothered with Yue Qianlan. "So what if she's here? What does it have to do with me?"
Yue Qianlan pursed her lips, "I just wanted to remind you that Ningning and I are chatting downstairs. If you come down later, be mindful of your image."
Yue Qianlou usually presents himself well in public, but at home he is always unkempt. Right now, he is unshaven and looks terrible.
After greeting her brother, Yue Qianlan went downstairs to continue chatting with Jiang Ning.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about and share. Yue Qianlan even brought out math problems she had accumulated over two weeks to ask Jiang Ning for help.
In the past, Yue Qianlan would never have asked Jiang Ning questions when she was so happy, but now it's different. She really wants to get into a university in Beijing.
Jiang Ning immediately used her best skills to teach Yue Qianlan. She was quick-witted and good at simplifying complex problems. In just a few words, she helped Yue Qianlan grasp the most important knowledge points.
Yue Qianlou got hungry while sleeping, so she went downstairs in her pajamas to find something to eat. She saw her younger sister sitting on the sofa and asked, "March, where can I find something to eat?"
"There's instant noodles in the fridge, go cook some yourself!" Yue Qianlan said.
Yue Qianlou turned and walked toward the kitchen, but as soon as he turned around, he noticed Jiang Ning sitting on the sofa.
This look.
Yue Qianlou was dumbfounded.
God!
Did he see a fairy?
Yue Qianlou naturally knew Jiang Ning.
That was my sister's savior.
But he had never met Jiang Ning. Although he had never met her, Yue Qianlou felt that his sister's taste had never been very good, so even though Yue Qianlan had told him many times how beautiful Jiang Ning was, he didn't take it to heart.
So, he came downstairs with an unshaven beard, uncombed hair, and unwashed face, wearing pajamas and sporting a messy, disheveled appearance.
Startled, Yue Qianlou quickly covered his face, hoping that Jiang Ning hadn't noticed him. Then, with lightning speed, he went upstairs, closed the door, and began to shave, change clothes, and comb his hair!
Twenty minutes later, Yue Qianlou appeared downstairs, dressed in a handsome suit and with a stylish hairstyle. He faced the sofa, looking like a peacock spreading its tail feathers: "Hello, Miss Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you. Let me introduce myself. My name is Yue Qianlou, Yue as in Yue Fei, Qian as in 'May you live a thousand years,' and Lou as in 'Lou Wai Lou.'"
After speaking, he gave a slight bow in a very gentlemanly manner.
After bowing, Yue Qianlou didn't hear a response from Jiang Ning. Curious, he looked up and saw that the sofa was empty!
Yue Qianlou: ? ? ?
What about people?
Where have the people gone?
Could they have gone out?
If Jiang Ning and his sister go out, what about all the clothes he painstakingly changed, the beard he shaved, and the hairstyle he styled?
He even put on foundation in order to leave a good impression on Jiang Ning!
Here.
Jiang Ning and Yue Qianlan arrived at a nearby shopping district.
Yue Qianlan took Jiang Ning's hand and said, "Ningning, I've had my eye on a bag for a long time, but I didn't want to come and buy it by myself. Now that you're here, we can go and have a good look at it together."
The first thing to do when shopping is always to buy milk tea. Today is Sunday, and there are many people buying milk tea, so there is a queue. Yue Qianlan looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Ningning, you wait in line first. I'm going to the restroom."
"Okay, March, go ahead." Jiang Ning nodded slightly.
Yue Qianlan ran to the restroom.
Jiang Ning stayed behind to wait in line.
When Yue Qianlan returned from the restroom, Jiang Ning had already bought the milk tea. The fully sweet taro pudding milk tea was Jiang Ning's favorite, and also Yue Qianlan's favorite.
The two chatted while drinking milk tea.
Snapped!
Suddenly, a figure appeared out of nowhere and bumped into Yue Qianlan, spilling all the milk tea in his hand onto her.
Yue Qianlan was stunned. Just as she was about to get angry, the other person screamed first, "Ah! My milk tea! Are you sick? Don't you know where you're going?!"
"Who's the one who's sick? You bumped into me first!" Yue Qianlan retorted, not to be outdone.
Jiang Ning stood next to Yue Qianlan and said, "That's right, you bumped into my friend first. Now that you've gotten my friend's clothes wet, you should be the one apologizing to my friend!"
The other party was a young woman in her early twenties with long curly hair. Although she was cute, her words and actions were truly eye-opening.
Just then, another figure ran over from the side. This person clearly recognized Yue Qianlan and squinted, saying, "Yue Qianlan, why aren't you apologizing to Zixiao right now! Do you know who Zixiao is? She's now a big shot in Hong Kong..."
So what if Yue Qianlan is a wealthy heiress from Shanghai?
You should know that Zhou Zixiao is now the girlfriend of Si Xuxia from the Si family in Hong Kong!
That's the Si family!
The local tyrant of Hong Kong.
Compared to the Si family, the Yue family is rather insignificant.
Before Wang Yue could finish her sentence, Zhou Zixiao interrupted her, "Wang Yue, how many times have I told you to keep a low profile when you're out and about? I hate bullying others!"
At this point, Zhou Zixiao looked at Yue Qianlan, narrowing his eyes, "Considering that you know Wang Yue, I'll give Wang Yue some face. You and your friend apologize to me! As long as I see your sincerity, I won't pursue the matter further."
