Chapter 424: 424: Still Calling
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pushed open.
Cui Jiangjing’s voice came in with annoyance, “If his head hadn’t been spinning, he wouldn’t have stood there to be hit by a rock! I don’t just think he’s dizzy, I seriously suspect he needs to take ‘Brain Gold’!”
“Shut up.” With a single indifferent sentence from the dignified man, Cui Jiangjing closed his mouth.
He looked frustrated and helpless as he said, “Alright, I’ll stop, okay? I know it’s for Rong Yan. That’s why I said, others use money to show love, but you, damn it, use your life to show love!”
In their circle, talking about love was almost like a joke. Normally, when you’re young, you play around outside. When it’s time to get married, you basically find someone from an equivalent social standing.
People outside either get calmed down with money or dismissed with it.
In short, it doesn’t matter whether they talk about love or not.
Li Shengxiao was different; like a century-old iron tree finally blooming, and when it did, it was all because of Rong Yan!
“Do you want me to say it a second time?” Li Shengxiao raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at him with a hawkish stare.
Cui Jiangjing made a zipping motion across his mouth and then said, “The medical staff are here; hurry and get on the ambulance.”
But looking at his condition, he probably didn’t need to be carried out on a stretcher.
He didn’t forget Rong Yan standing beside them as he told her, “Miss Rong, you’re not busy later, are you? If not, come to the hospital with us.”
Rong Yan quickly said, “I have no plans.”
Even if she had plans, she wouldn’t leave him alone to attend to work at this time.
Cui Jiangjing eased his expression a bit and directed the medical staff to come in. They quickly took the patient away. Rong Yan explained the situation to Qi Yue and also hurriedly followed onto the hospital vehicle.
Upon arriving at Kanghui Hospital, Li Shengxiao was rushed into the operating room.
The surgery wasn’t major, so Cui Jiangjing did not perform it himself but found a top-notch surgeon to do the stitching instead.
Rong Yan waited outside. Halfway through her wait, her phone rang.
She was already distracted and answered without looking at the caller ID, “Hello.”
The person on the other end sneered coldly, with a mocking tone, saying, “I thought you had decided to never answer my calls for the rest of your life.”
At that voice, Rong Yan pulled away the phone to check the caller ID; sure enough, it was Jiang Meiqi.
She had no mood to entangle and said tiredly, “I’m busy right now, let’s talk another day.”
“What could you be busy with? You’re just looking for an excuse to hang up on me. What, you’re feeling guilty? If you have the nerve to do it, what are you afraid of?”
“I really am busy.”
“First tell me, was it you who instigated that crazy woman to trouble Wei? Are you satisfied now that your sister embarrassed herself at the press conference? What do you have against your sister? Can you not let it go for my sake? After raising you for all these years, is this how you treat me?” With each word from Mrs. Rong, heavy with resentment, who would think it was a conversation with her daughter?
Rong Yan, already in a bad mood, couldn’t take it anymore after hearing the accusations. She clenched her phone tightly and retorted, “What do I have against her? Mrs. Rong should ask her what she has against me first!”
Jiang Meiqi’s face turned cold, “What do you mean by that?”
“My meaning is quite simple. I was suddenly exposed for having an improper relationship with a man I don’t even know. Right after that, a video was released of her meeting with that man in private and even going home together. Why did they meet, and what did they talk about? What was Rong Weiwei doing bringing him back home? I’ve thought about these things that Mrs. Rong has not. The only thing they have in common is me, so it’s clear who leaked the information. She’s done so much in secret; does Mrs. Rong still think she’s innocent?”
