Chapter 470: Chapter 468: Became Lonely
She absolutely could not go on living with that face anymore.
Xia Wenjin thought so and suddenly made peace with her disfigurement; had she not been disfigured, she might not have made such a decision.
Feng Xixi didn’t expect her to calm down so quickly and started to see Xia Wenjin in a new light.
If she had been this calm earlier, she wouldn’t have lost so miserably when confronting the male and female protagonists.
"Sister Feng, I trust you, I am willing to have plastic surgery," Xia Wenjin said, as if she had made up her mind, clenching her fist.
If she completely changed her appearance, Xiao Mo and the others would have no way to start with her, and when she returned to her country, she planned to take vicious revenge on them!
After Xia Wenjin made up her mind, her whole mentality stabilized.
However, Feng Xixi’s face did not look good; although she recommended Xia Wenjin to undergo surgery, she might not be able to afford the cost of the surgery.
Her savings had almost been squandered over the past decade.
She had previously been addicted to betting on horses, and had nearly lost half of her possessions.
She originally thought that as soon as the original story began, she could return to her country comfortably, but who knew Xia Wenjin would cause her such big trouble?
Why couldn’t she just remain the well-off Miss Xia, instead of getting involved with the Lu Family?
Thinking of the wall full of limited-edition bags, shoes, and jewelry that Xia Wenjin had shown off before, Feng Xixi couldn’t help asking, "Jin, do you still have any money on hand? After all, plastic surgery will definitely cost money, and Sister Feng isn’t well-off, so..."
She didn’t finish her sentence, but the implication was clear—she didn’t have the money for Xia Wenjin’s surgery, which made Xia Wenjin’s heart sink to the bottom.
She had been deceived by Xiao Jinglan into coming out here, completely unaware that Xiao Jinglan would attack her abroad, so she had only brought a few things with her.
However... to not lose face, she had brought quite a bit of valuable jewelry.
Suddenly, Xia Wenjin seemed to remember something, "There was a card in my clothes before, there should still be quite a bit of money in it."
She didn’t know if she had lost that card.
She remembered it was the card Xiao Jinglan had given her to buy evening gowns with; at the time, she thought Xiao Jinglan had relented, but now, looking back, she realized she had been naive and failed to see through her schemes.
Feng Xixi was also stunned for a moment, "Your clothes..."
Her face feigned deep thought, but inside, she was already overjoyed.
She hadn’t expected Xia Wenjin to still have something up her sleeve.
When she had seen Xia Wenjin at the hospital, the hospital staff had given her Xia Wenjin’s personal belongings, and indeed, there had been a card among them.
If it really contained as much money as she said...
Feng Xixi’s eyes shifted, and with a distressed face, she said, "When I saved you then, I didn’t see it. I’ll go back and look for it again."
She didn’t plan to return the card to Xia Wenjin, because the card had no password, so whatever amount was in it, it was now hers. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
Feng Xixi said with a troubled face, "If I can’t find the card, then your surgery will have to be postponed, it’s a shame your sister isn’t capable enough..."
Xia Wenjin’s face darkened, but she said nothing.
How had the card gotten lost?
However, thinking back to when she fell into the water and the current was strong, maybe the card was lost at that time.
Xia Wenjin suddenly felt a bit annoyed, but quickly seemed to think of something and spoke again, "Can my suitcase still be found? It’s where I fell into the water, I remember that area was quite remote..."
Feng Xixi seemed to have discovered a new world, "I will also help you investigate. Tell me the specific location."
This was another opportunity to take advantage, if there were valuable items in her suitcase, she might be able to hold onto quite a bit of them.
Xia Wenjin didn’t know Feng Xixi’s intentions at all, feeling that Feng Xixi had been gentle and kind towards her these past few days, she completely trusted her.
She had no idea that she was seen as mere fat to be chewed in someone else’s eyes.
Feng Xixi certainly wasn’t going to deny her a facelift, but how much money it would cost was still up to her to decide...
Lu Zhaozhao had stayed in the hospital for a few days because of a cold.
Song Sinian had almost shadowed Lu Zhaozhao throughout her hospital stay until her discharge, after which they both returned to the Song Mansion. However, he had to leave her side due to work constraints.
Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t help but find it funny when she thought of the wistful look Song Sinian had when he left.
"Thud thud thud!"
Suddenly, the bedroom door was knocked.
Lu Zhaozhao looked towards the door in confusion, only then seeing Old Master Song enter.
She watched him with a bit of surprise, "Grandpa?"
Usually, Old Master Song wouldn’t come to find her if there wasn’t anything important; even for casual chats, it was she who would actively seek him out in the back garden.
Except when she was hospitalized.
On one hand, Old Master Song was afraid of upsetting Song Sinian, and on the other hand, Lu Zhaozhao and he didn’t visit the Song Mansion frequently.
This was the first time they had moved back since moving out.
Old Master Song cleared his throat, "Ahem, Zhaozhao, these days some kids from the extended family might come over. I’m worried they might disturb you, so I wanted to come and let you know."
He constantly watched Lu Zhaozhao as he spoke, trying to gauge her reaction.
If Lu Zhaozhao didn’t like the noise from the kids, he would definitely send them back immediately, but now he was still holding a shred of hope towards her.
After all, Sinian and Lu Zhaozhao had been married for a while now, and he was looking forward to cradling a great-grandchild, but alas Sinian wasn’t cooperating.
He didn’t dare to directly pressure Lu Zhaozhao about having a baby, so he could only try to make them like the idea of having kids around the house, in hopes that he could eventually hold a great-grandchild.
He didn’t care whether the child was a boy or a girl, just having a little one around would be nice.
Song Sinian wasn’t affectionate as a child, and whenever other people bragged about their grandsons, he could only watch his oldest grandson from afar, feeling lonely as a grandfather.
Thus, wanting Lu Zhaozhao to have a child soon was somewhat understandable.
Lu Zhaozhao was unaware of Old Master Song’s intentions, thinking that it was because she and Song Sinian had moved out of the Song Mansion, which is why Old Master Song often let the children from the collateral branches come over to play.
She chuckled softly, reassuringly saying, "Grandpa, don’t worry. I don’t dislike children, you can let them play at the house freely."
Lu Zhaozhao spoke the truth, whether in her past life or in this one, she always had enough tolerance for children.
Her biggest regret before was not being able to express her sentiments to Song Sinian. Being with him in this life, she was already content.
If she could have a child with him, she naturally would be overjoyed.
In her previous thoughts of revenge, she hadn’t considered this matter...
