Chapter 902: 222: Peeling off the truth layer by layer, brutally torturing Dr. Zheng Lingling’s family!_6
But now, this family of three had the audacity to bite back!
There was a world of difference between stepping forward voluntarily and being pushed out.
At that moment, Doctor Jiang’s anger was ignited.
The ugliness of human nature was fully displayed!
"Woo woo!" Doctor Jiang painfully struggled.
"Do you have something to say?" Ni Yang asked softly, lowering her eyes.
"Woo woo!" Doctor Jiang nodded.
Ni Yang slowly released her, "Fine, then I’ll let you speak your mind."
Doctor Jiang fell to the ground with a thud, her neck now marked by five distinct finger marks, gasping heavily. Regaining a bit of strength, she backhanded Zheng Lingling with a slap!
"Slap!"
"I’ll kill you today, you ungrateful daughter! I worked tirelessly to bring you from M Country to Beijing, to give you the life of a pampered lady, to eat and drink well every day! And this is how you repay me! Wretch! You’re just a wretch! The one who deserves to go to hell, the one who deserves to be fried in oil is you! Wretch!"
Zheng Lingling was first slapped by Doctor Jiang, then wrestled with her.
In that instant, all blood relations and familial love disintegrated.
Shattered!
"It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for your disgraceful schemes of replacing the peach with the plum and the baby-swapping, I would never have ended up in the Zheng family! If I hadn’t come to the Zheng family, I wouldn’t have been haunted by evil spirits today! I wouldn’t have been haunted, and our family of three wouldn’t be in mortal danger! It’s all your fault! All because of you, you evil woman!"
"Ungrateful daughter! Ungrateful daughter!" Doctor Jiang angrily said, "I, Jiang Yan, have been clever all my life, only to find that I’ve raised a thankless wretch! Today, I will strangle you to cleanse our Jiang family!"
She had tried her best to give Zheng Lingling a good life, yet, instead of being grateful, Zheng Lingling had blamed her!
Thankless wretches!
All of them, thankless wretches!
"Scoundrel! You don’t deserve to be my daughter!"
Doctor Jiang was truly furious, her handling of Zheng Lingling’s hair messy and chaotic, with broken hair all over the floor.
The air was tinged with a faint smell of blood.
Fearing that Zheng Lingling might get hurt, Sun Wu also joined in.
The three wrestled together.
Bang bang bang!
Surrounding vases and antique pieces shattered.
At some unknown moment, the crystal lamp above their heads turned on, but the brawlers did not notice and continued to scuffle.
"Someone! Close the door!" An aged yet powerful voice echoed through the air.
Then came the sound of orderly footsteps.
"Bang!"
All doors and windows of the Side Hall were shut.
Then, seen approaching from the doorway were Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui, supporting Elder Zheng and his wife.
"Grandpa, Grandma." Ni Yang removed the mask from her face.
The people on the ground only then realized, looking incredulously ahead.
Zheng Xianjing stared at Ni Yang and said, "You, you’re not a ghost?"
Ni Yang slightly curved her lips, "Of course, I am not."
"You didn’t die?" Zheng Xianjing widened her eyes.
Ni Yang lightly raised an eyebrow, "What do you think?"
In that instant.
Zheng Xianjing’s blood ran cold, even more frightened than when she first saw a ghost!
Because she knew.
She was done!
She was truly done!
At that moment, Zheng Lingling also came to her senses, hastily crawling to Elder Zheng’s wife, crying and saying, "Mom! Mom! It’s not like what you’ve seen! Please listen to my explanation! It’s all because of that evil woman, I didn’t mean to harm Yangyang! It was that evil woman, all these ideas were hers! Please forgive us!"
"Get out!" Elder Zheng’s wife kicked Zheng Lingling away.
Old Mrs. Zheng had heard everything!
She had heard everything!
Zheng Lingling wasn’t the daughter of her sister, Cao Lingrui; Zheng Lingling was the daughter of Doctor Jiang!
She truly hadn’t expected that, all these years, she had been nurturing two ingrates! 𝓃ℴ𝓋𝓹𝓊𝓫.𝒸𝓸𝓂
One was her long-time old sister!
One was the daughter she treated as her own!
How ironic!
"Lingling! Where have you hidden Lingling?" Old Mrs. Zheng approached Doctor Jiang, grabbing her by the shoulders, "Lingling?"
At this moment, Doctor Jiang remained calm, smiling, "Zhao Qing, you’ve been smart all your life, yet you couldn’t even recognize your own niece. How does that feel?"
"Lingling? Lingling!"
"She’s dead," Doctor Jiang continued. "The person who killed Cao Lingrui was you! If you had realized sooner that Jiang Xiaomin wasn’t Cao Lingrui, perhaps Cao Lingrui wouldn’t have died."
"Bastard! You bastard!" Old Mrs. Zheng fiercely slapped Doctor Jiang.
Doctor Jiang’s face was turned aside, a clear slap mark now visible on her cheek.
"Zhao Qing, today I lost. But I didn’t lose to you!" Doctor Jiang’s face twisted into a mocking smile. "I never dreamed that I would be undone by a little girl!"
She had considered every possibility, but she hadn’t anticipated that Ni Yang would blow up!
Doctor Jiang had never underestimated Ni Yang; she knew Ni Yang was different from ordinary people, but she had never expected to ultimately lose to Ni Yang.
"Jiang Yan, my sister treated you well! Why did you treat her this way!"
Doctor Jiang and Old Mrs. Zheng’s sister, Zhao Lan, were classmates.
The two had been close friends since childhood, and Zhao Lan even favored Doctor Jiang over Old Mrs. Zheng.
Back then, Doctor Jiang’s family was very poor, but she was determined to study abroad with Zhao Hong.
So Zhao Lan helped fund Doctor Jiang, allowing her to smoothly leave the country.
Because Zhao Lan and Doctor Jiang were best friends, Old Mrs. Zheng had never doubted Doctor Jiang.
Doctor Jiang turned to look at Old Mrs. Zheng.
"She wore fine silks, had a crowd of people always attending her, and a husband who treasured her like a gem. Me? At twenty, I was abandoned, left to give birth alone, living under someone else’s roof, worrying every day whether I’d have enough to eat. Her? She wouldn’t eat leftovers, washed her hands with yuan-per-bucket sterilized water, and even her family’s pet dog ate better than I did! Tell me, why wouldn’t I behave this way?"
Actually, life abroad hadn’t been easy for Doctor Jiang.
The cost of living overseas was very high.
She was too embarrassed to keep asking Zhao Lan for money, so she adopted a work-study approach, and the seeds of hatred were quietly sown then.
And Zhao Lan?
She didn’t offer money when she saw Doctor Jiang wasn’t asking for it!
Zhao Lan never cared whether she had eaten enough or had money to spend!
She envied Zhao Lan!
Why should Zhao Lan have everything without doing anything, while she, who worked so hard, couldn’t have the life she wanted?
After completing her studies smoothly, Zhao Lan married a man of Chinese descent who had pursued her for a long time.
Doctor Jiang too started a relationship with a classmate.
A year later, they each had a daughter, one after the other.
Doctor Jiang thought she could finally settle down, but she hadn’t anticipated that her partner would be faithless; after their daughter was born, he completely disappeared.
Seeing her plight, Zhao Lan let her and her daughter move into her residence.
But Doctor Jiang didn’t need Zhao Lan’s sympathy!
Living under Zhao Lan’s roof, she watched Zhao Lan’s family lead a blissfully happy life, and she nearly went mad with jealousy!
Every day, she cursed Zhao Lan and her family to die!
Finally, one day, her curses came true!
Zhao Lan’s family died in a plane crash; both spouses died instantly, leaving behind the young Cao Lingrui.
It was then that Doctor Jiang knew her opportunity had arrived...
