Chapter 542: 253 Secret (First Update)_3
Duan Xiaoxiao struggled to break free from the others and tried to snatch Liu Muxue’s phone. Naturally, Liu Muxue wouldn’t let her, but Liu Muxue was no match for Duan Xiaoxiao in terms of height.
Duan Xiaoxiao glared fiercely and reached out to grab Liu Muxue’s phone, but her sharp fingernails aimed clearly at Liu Muxue’s tender face.
“Watch out!” Li Susu suddenly rushed over and pushed Liu Muxue away. The next moment, Duan Xiaoxiao’s nails scratched Li Susu’s face.
Li Susu let out a muffled groan and squatted on the ground covering her face.
Duan Xiaoxiao glowered at Liu Muxue, her eyes deranged, “I’ll kill you…!”
Not caring about anything else, she charged towards Liu Muxue.
Liu Muxue darted around the room, shouting, “So you’re insane! No wonder Liu Suifeng wants to break up with you! What man would like a crazy woman like you…!”
“I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you…!” Liu Muxue’s words deeply provoked her, and she chased after her with a vicious glare.
Liu Muxue hadn’t expected this woman to be so brutal. She shouted at the bewildered nurses standing aside, “What are you waiting for? Call the police and arrest this madwoman!”
Ming Jing heard Liu Muxue’s shout and came out. She frowned when she saw the scene in the living room and picked up a goose egg-sized stone from a flowerpot by the door. She pinched the stone between two fingers and threw it.
Just as Duan Xiaoxiao was about to catch Liu Muxue, she suddenly felt pain in her right knee and her face paled. She “plop” fell to the ground, landing face-first.
In her struggling pain, she saw a pair of white embroidered shoes walk in front of her.
The shoes were embroidered with green clouds and fairy cranes, elegant and unique.
The white skirt fluttered without wind, with silver hidden patterns like shining lotus flowers, pure and graceful.
Duan Xiaoxiao struggled to raise her head and could only see a slender figure bending down to help Li Susu up.
The girl’s ethereal voice was gentle and moving, “Is your face alright?”
Li Susu shook her head, covering her face. Her pale lips seemed to conceal some emotions, “I’m fine, thank you.”
Liu Muxue walked over and kicked Duan Xiaoxiao hard, scolding her, “You bitch, how dare you be so ruthless? If my face gets scratched, I’ll tear yours to pieces.”
Although Li Susu had saved her, it didn’t mean Duan Xiaoxiao was innocent.
Liu Muxue saw a fruit knife on the coffee table and swung it towards Duan Xiaoxiao’s face. Happening in haste, Duan Xiaoxiao couldn’t dodge, and her reflection in the knife’s edge revealed her fear.
However, the knife stopped just a few millimeters away from her skin. Duan Xiaoxiao was sweating.
Liu Muxue turned to look at Ming Jing, who was holding her wrist with the knife.
“Why are you stopping me? Let this venomous-hearted woman taste what it’s like to have a ruined face.”
Ming Jing flipped her fingers, and before anyone could see clearly, she had taken the knife away from Liu Muxue.
Liu Muxue stomped her foot in anger, “Are you helping her instead of me? Are we still friends?”
Ming Jing looked down at Duan Xiaoxiao, “Do not do unto others what you would not want others to do unto you.”
Duan Xiaoxiao hadn’t quite come back to her senses, but she nodded anyway.
The security guard had been watching from the side, but no one dared to offend Duan Xiaoxiao back when she was Dr. Liu’s girlfriend. They had all suffered from her before, so they didn’t dare to act rashly. In case they got back together, what if she took revenge?
They didn’t expect her to cut Li Susu’s face.
Ming Jing said indifferently, “If you want an explanation from Dr. Liu, just wait for him. If you scar his sister’s face, do you think he will have the patience to talk to you?”
Duan Xiaoxiao looked up in shock at Liu Muxue, “She’s Liu Suifeng’s sister?”
Liu Muxue twirled the ring on her little finger, sneering, “Wanna be my sister-in-law? Maybe in your next life.”
Duan Xiaoxiao choked, retorting, “Who let you impersonate Liu Suifeng’s fiancée? Would I be so ruthless otherwise?””So it’s my fault now? Let me tell you, if Susu’s face ends up with a scar, I’ll cut a matching one on your face to even it out.”
Ming Jing looked at Li Susu and calmly said, “She’s the most innocent person in this farce you two created. Apologize to her.”
After hesitating for a moment, Duan Xiaoxiao reluctantly said, “I’m sorry.”
Ming Jing looked at Liu Muxue.
Liu Muxue pointed to herself, “Should I apologize too?”
“You started this, and she got hurt trying to save you. Doesn’t she deserve an apology?”
Liu Muxue pursed her lips, “Fine.”
Li Susu hurriedly spoke up, “There’s no need, Ms. Liu. It was my duty to save you.”
Liu Muxue said, “Don’t be so polite with me. I’ll consider this a work-related injury. I’ll ask my brother to give you a month off to recover and to use the best materials to repair your skin. I’m sure you won’t have a scar.”
“Thank you, Ms. Liu, and thank you, Ms. Ming Jing.”
Ming Jing spoke to a nurse, “Take her to the rest room.”
The nurse carefully helped Duan Xiaoxiao to her feet, “You come with me.”
Duan Xiaoxiao didn’t dare to act out again. She stole a glance at Ming Jing and asked the young nurse, “Who is that girl in the white dress?”
The nurse looked surprised, “You don’t know who she is?”
Duan Xiaoxiao frowned, “What, should I know her?”
The nurse pursed her lips, “Nothing, she’s just Ms. Liu’s friend.”
Duan Xiaoxiao glanced back again, suddenly feeling her knee hurting even more. She gasped and gritted her teeth bitterly.
Li Susu hurriedly took out disinfectant tools to sterilize the wound. Liu Muxue saw the cut on her face was quite deep and clenched her fists angrily.
“How could my brother be attracted to such a vulgar and vicious woman? His taste is getting worse and worse.”
Li Susu held the tweezers with an iodine-soaked cotton ball, and just as she was about to wipe the wound, Ming Jing took over and gently said, “Let me help you.”
Li Susu looked at her blankly, “Ms. Ming Jing, I can do it myself.”
“It’s fine, just sit still and don’t move.”
The young girl’s slender fingers held the tweezers with an indescribable elegance and grace. Her movements were extremely gentle, and Li Susu didn’t feel any pain at all.
“Thankfully, it’s just a small tear in the skin and not too deep. It shouldn’t leave a scar,” Ming Jing said gently.
Li Susu secretly sighed with relief.
Liu Muxue glanced at her and her eyes rolled all over the place, “Susu, let me ask you, how long have you been with my brother?”
Li Susu answered without hesitation, “Nine years.”
Ever since he returned from studying abroad and opened his studio, she had been with him.
“You’re much prettier and gentler than Duan Xiaoxiao. Why didn’t my brother notice you? Is it because a rabbit doesn’t eat the grass beside its burrow?”
Li Susu’s face stiffened, and she lowered her gaze unnaturally.
Ming Jing glanced at Liu Muxue casually, and Liu Muxue felt a chill down her spine under her gaze, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“I’m thirsty. Go get me a glass of water.”
“All you do is boss me around.” Liu Muxue reluctantly got up and left.
