Chapter 879: 219: Cunning Yangyang
Grandma Zheng said with a smile, "This child is indeed clever, certainly smarter than this old lady. It’s our family’s good fortune from the past life to have such a wonderful granddaughter." 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
Zheng Lingling looked at Ni Yang, her features nearly contorting with jealousy and anger.
Ni Yang had become a treasure, while Zheng Xianjing was now mere grass.
Who in the vast Zheng Family even remembered Zheng Xianjing now?
Before Ni Yang’s arrival, Zheng Xianjing was the only granddaughter of the Zheng Family, a master in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and a famous socialite within their circles. After the last birthday banquet, however, Zheng Xianjing had become a laughingstock.
It was Ni Yang who had stolen everything from Zheng Xianjing!
Had it not been for Ni Yang, Zheng Xianjing would still be the sole heir to the Zheng Family.
Now, Zheng Lingling wished she could just strangle Ni Yang.
Doctor Jiang was right, the most difficult person to deal with in the Zheng Family was Ni Yang.
Ni Yang, seeming young, actually had a high level of cunning, more difficult to deal with than a hundred Ni Cuihuas.
Without Ni Yang, Ni Cuihua wouldn’t even be able to stand a chance against the Zheng Family!
Ni Yang felt a bit dizzy and stood up, saying, "Grandpa, Grandma, I’m feeling a bit light-headed, I’ll go upstairs to rest for a while."
Old Master Zheng hurriedly stood up, saying, "Of course, go ahead, and we’ll call you when it’s time to eat."
Ni Yang nodded and walked upstairs.
The Thirteen Ghost Needles were very draining, and Ni Yang almost fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.
Doctor Jiang didn’t stay long at the Zheng Family’s either, chatted with Grandma Zheng for a while, and then left.
Just as Doctor Jiang got home, Zheng Lingling and Sun Wu showed up right on her heels.
Now that Zheng Suyu had awoken, Zheng Lingling was, of course, anxious.
And she wasn’t the only anxious one, Sun Wu was too. Sun Wu had lived more than twenty years of good life, and if Zheng Suyu spilled everything, without the big tree of the Zheng Family to lean on, what would become of him?
Would he have to go back to facing the cold winds of the northwest?
Doctor Jiang looked at Zheng Lingling, slightly surprised, "Why are you here?"
Zheng Lingling placed her bag on the coffee table, "Aunt Jiang, as you’ve seen, Aunt Suyu’s condition is worrying. What do we do now? We can’t just sit around and wait for death, can we?"
Doctor Jiang poured Zheng Lingling a glass of water, "We’ve gotten through many years, what’s the rush?"
Where did Zheng Lingling have the mind to drink water now, holding the cup she said, "Aunt Jiang, I think Aunt Suyu seems to have realized something. If this continues, and she recalls everything one day, we’re all finished!"
The more Zheng Lingling thought about it, the more panicked she became, her face turning pale with fear.
"You’re not wrong," Doctor Jiang nodded, "Zheng Suyu has indeed recovered all her memories."
Even Doctor Jiang hadn’t expected Ni Yang’s medical skills to be so proficient, enough even to cure Zheng Suyu’s hysteria.
From the beginning, she hadn’t underestimated Ni Yang, only to find she had still underestimated her in the end.
Ni Yang was even more formidable than she had imagined.
"Crash!"
The cup in Zheng Lingling’s hand fell directly to the ground, shattering into pieces.
"Suyu, Aunt Suyu really remembered everything?"
"Really..."
Before Doctor Jiang could finish her sentence, Sun Wu sprang up from the sofa, "It’s over! We’re done for! We need to flee right now!"
"Is that really all the backbone you have?" Doctor Jiang looked at Sun Wu, speaking sternly, "Running away is the most cowardly solution! After all these years of hard work at the Zheng Family, do you really want to end up as street rats that everyone wants to bash?"
With that said, Doctor Jiang turned to look at Zheng Lingling, "And you! Lingling, you’ve been with the Zheng Family for thirty-five years, and Xianjing is already twenty-one. How can you still be like before, making no progress at all? Losing your head over a little trouble! With this attitude of yours, how do you expect to push out Ni Yang and become the matriarch of the Zheng Family?"
Doctor Jiang was smiling as she said this, but Zheng Lingling saw no warmth in that smile.
Zheng Lingling opened her mouth, then continued, "So, what should I do?"
Zheng Suyu had already awakened, and those dark secrets would inevitably surface one day.
For Zheng Lingling, the current Zheng Suyu was like a time bomb, capable of detonation at any moment.
She wasn’t Doctor Jiang, she didn’t have such a strong heart.
"Don’t worry," Doctor Jiang took a syringe out of the medicine box, squeezing out the excess air inside, "Zheng Suyu won’t dare to speak carelessly."
Seeing Doctor Jiang like this, a sudden thought seemed to strike Zheng Lingling, "Right, there’s also that child!" As she spoke, she continued, "But what about Ni Yang? Ni Yang is so clever, she will definitely notice something."
