The Qu Lian remembered how deeply she slept last night. She couldn't help but grit her teeth and say with hatred, "Lin Zhaoxi!" Last night's glass of milk must have been spiked. No wonder Lin Zhaoxi was so attentive to make milk for her. She had it all planned out.
She didn't expect to fall for a little girl.
Those jewels were the Qu Lian's backup plan. Even if they were sold cheaply, they could still be sold for hundreds of millions. Now it was gone. It was all gone.
Her body was weak, her heart was in a mess, and her mind was in a mess. Unfortunately, Lê Nam Giệu was locked up. She didn't have anyone she could trust and couldn't make decisions for her.
She picked up her phone and kept dialing Lin Zhaoxi's number, but it was all in vain. Lin Zhaoxi's phone was turned off. She remembered Lin Zhaoxi's uncle and aunt. She wanted to call them and ask them. But in the past, it was always the couple who came to her and flattered her. Although the Qu Lian enjoyed their flattery, she didn't like poor people like them. Of course, she wouldn't give them their number. So now she was at a loss.
She didn't have any connections. She couldn't find them even if she wanted to.
When it rains, it pours. Just as she decided to put down her face and find a few friends who used to play mahjong with her, she suddenly heard the sound of the lock turning.
The Qu Lian was alone at home. When she heard the sound, her hair stood on end. She had an unrealistic hope in her heart. Could it be that Lin Zhaoxi came back? She realized the mistake she had made, so she repented?
The next second, the door was opened. In front of her was a couple. They looked ordinary and were around forty years old. They looked very unfamiliar. At least, she didn't remember them.
The Qu Lian said angrily, "What do you want to do by breaking into my house?"
The couple was stunned. The woman sneered and said, "What do you mean your house? You're a tenant. You really think this is your house."
The mean-looking woman rolled her eyes. "The owner has already sold the house to us. We'll be moving in in two days. You'd better pack up your things and move out quickly. If you have any problems, go to the original owner. It's none of our business. "
She and her husband came to look at the house a few days ago. They were very satisfied with the house, especially since it was in the school district. It would be convenient for their son to go to high school in the future.
The Qu Lian's eyes were red with hatred. "Lin Zhaoxi!"
She actually sold the house so quickly? Even the house they were living in was sold. It was obvious that the other houses would be sold as well. She wished she could travel back in time to a month ago and stop herself from being blinded by lard. Why did she listen to Lin Zhaoxi and obediently transfer the house to her name?
Her house was gone and her jewels were stolen. Most of the money in the card was transferred to Lin Zhaoxi, leaving only a few hundred thousand. It could be said that she had nothing now.
When she thought about how she was going to lose her house, her blood rushed up. Her face turned red and her eyes were about to pop out. She started to feel dizzy. There was even a buzzing sound in her ears, isolating her from the surrounding sounds. She looked at the woman's mouth opening and closing. She wanted to hear what she was saying clearly, but the more she wanted to hear, the more she couldn't do it.
Her vision started to blur and her body fell straight down. The back of her head hit the floor with a bang.
The woman who was talking enthusiastically was stunned by the Qu Lian's fainting.
She squatted down and pushed the Qu Lian. She warned, "Don't try to scam me. Do you think you can just pretend to be unconscious? I have relatives in the police station! "
"Hey hey! Wake up! "
After pushing for a long time, panic flashed across her face.
*****
Li Xiao opened her eyes. She had been using the yellow millet fruit to cultivate for the past few days. Although the fragment of the Void Mirror increased her strength, her foundation was still unstable. She needed time to digest what she had gained.
And she had indeed succeeded. After using seven more yellow millet fruits, her cultivation had long surpassed the current record of the Void Technique. She even began to try to figure out the follow-up technique and already had some ideas. Halfway through her deliberations, she was interrupted by a phone call.
Li Xiao looked at the number on the screen. It was a call from an unknown number. However, not many people knew her number, except for a few close friends.
She picked up the phone. It was a call from the police.
"Is this Li Xiao? Your grandmother is in the hospital right now. "
Li Xiao frowned. What kind of trouble did the Qu Lian cause? It was actually to the point of being in the hospital. Since it was a call from the police, it shouldn't be a groundless complaint.
She directly called the brat Mao Ruxin back. During this time, Mao Ruxin was in charge of watching over there.
She went straight to the point and asked, "What's going on with the Qu Lian?"
Mao Ruxin said, "I just came back to report to you." Then, he told her about the Qu Lian and Lin Zhaoxi. Speaking of which, the Qu Lian and Lin Zhaoxi's matter was an eye-opener for her.
"The Qu Lian was so angry that he was sent to the hospital. He has now suffered a stroke."
Li Xiao gasped in amazement. She didn't care about Lin Zhaoxi before because she wanted to let them fight each other. She didn't expect that Lin Zhaoxi would really take the jewelry and the house and run away. He even angered the Qu Lian to the point of suffering a stroke.
She felt relieved just listening to it.
"Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Li Xiao nodded. "Of course. If she doesn't have the money to pay for the medical fees, I can certainly help her."
Now that he had suffered a stroke, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble in the future. And to be honest, many people thought that the Li Clan deserved it and scolded the Li Clan from Li Xiao's perspective. But now that the Qu Lian had suffered a stroke, he became a weakling in everyone's eyes. If she didn't care at all, many people would jump out and say sour things.
She could just take out some medical fees in exchange for some peace and quiet. Anyway, she didn't lack money. And she didn't want the Qu Lian to die so quickly. Dying now would be a relief for her.
Li Xiao tidied up a little and went to the hospital to visit the Qu Lian.
The Qu Lian had already woken up. She was lying on the hospital bed. Her hair was a little messy, her mouth looked a little crooked, and saliva was flowing out of her mouth. The Qu Lian's eyes lit up when she saw her. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word. She could only make futile sounds.
Li Xiao walked in front of her and said to the nurse, "Thank you for your hard work."
The nurse looked at her curiously, smiled at Li Xiao, and told her some things to pay attention to when taking care of the patient. Li Xiao recorded it directly. Well, it was impossible for her to take care of the Qu Lian. It was impossible for her to take care of the Qu Lian for the rest of her life. At most, she would ask a nurse to come over. That would be benevolent enough.
She went to the front desk to pay the medical fees and changed the Qu Lian to a separate ward.
After doing all this, half a day had passed.
After the nurse and the doctor left, Li Xiao made a barrier to prevent people outside from hearing what was going on inside. She cast an illusion so that on the surveillance screen, people would only see the Qu Lian sleeping and she playing with her phone. Then she would use his heart to communicate with the Qu Lian. Although the Qu Lian couldn't speak because of the stroke, it wasn't difficult for her at all.
"Xiao Xiao, you're really a good child. Grandma didn't misjudge you!"
When the Qu Lian heard his inner voice, he was stunned for a moment and then showed an excited expression.
Li Xiao smiled and said, "You don't think that I came to pay the medical fees because I forgive you, do you? I'm just happy to see you in such a sorry state, so I don't mind spending some money. Just treat it as a ticket to watch a show. "
She looked at the Qu Lian condescendingly, looking like a villain in a novel.
The Qu Lian was stunned and his face turned red.
"I already know that I was wrong. Can't you forgive me?"
Li Xiao sneered, "Why should I forgive you? Don't you have only yourself to blame for what happened to you? "
"If you didn't dislike my mother and support Chan Ka-yin, the Li Clan wouldn't have gone bankrupt."
"If you didn't want a grandson and get a bunch of women for Lê Nam Giệu, you would have let Chan Ka-yin enter the Li Clan. Even if you let Lin Chaoxi enter the house, Lin Chaoxi wouldn't have the chance to cheat you out of your house and jewels. You wouldn't have been driven out of the house and have no place to live. You wouldn't have had a stroke and be paralyzed and unable to speak. "
"You, how do you know all this?" The Qu Lian's inner voice sounded flustered and exasperated.
Li Xiao's smile widened, "Oh, I saw it from your face."
Of course, she couldn't see such detailed things from her face. Anyway, the Qu Lian didn't know, so she casually made up a story. She couldn't say that she often asked the little ghost to help keep an eye on him.
The Qu Lian easily believed this reason. "Then why didn't you remind me?"
If she could make a sound, she would probably be so angry that her voice would break when she said this. But Li Xiao could see her current mood from her ferocious expression. Her ferocious expression made her mouth seem even more crooked. Saliva kept dripping down, but she couldn't move her hands and feet. She couldn't even wipe her own saliva.
"Why should I remind you? You didn't give me any money. I already cut off all ties with you and your son. It's impossible for me to work for free. "
Li Xiao said in a pitiful tone, "Don't be angry, or you'll drool again."
"Ai, you better live a little longer. Don't die of anger so quickly. Otherwise, when you die, I'll definitely treat you well as a ghost. When that time comes, you definitely won't feel better than you do now. "She emphasized the word 'ghost'.
The Qu Lian was so scared that her inner voice stopped. She was already in extreme pain, but after becoming a ghost, she would be in even more pain?
Li Xiao glanced at her, the smile on her lips was full of ridicule.
"If your son didn't cheat, if you and my mother got along well, you would still be able to enjoy a pampered life, instead of being angered to the point of having a stroke and being alone."
"It's you who ruined your own life."
She stood up, didn't look at the Qu Lian again, and walked out of the ward. She lifted the illusion and read his mind.
After a while, the nurse hired by Li Xiao arrived. She nodded slightly at Li Xiao and went in to take care of the patient.
On the hospital bed, the Qu Lian closed her eyes and tears kept flowing down.
Li Xiao's words kept replaying in her mind.
She regretted it, she really regretted it.
The nurse's voice sounded in her ears, "That was your granddaughter, right? Your granddaughter is really beautiful and filial. She's willing to spend money on you. You're really lucky. "
Was it a blessing? How could she be lucky? She didn't expect that she would end up like this in her old age after enjoying a lifetime of happiness.
***
Li Xiao walked out of the hospital and went to the police station to report the case. The jewelry that Lin Zhaoxi stole from the Qu Lian was worth hundreds of millions. This kind of theft was enough to send Lin Zhaoxi to prison for life.
She also didn't understand why the Qu Lian didn't know how to report the theft after finding out that her things were stolen. Such a big case would definitely be the focus of the police investigation.
Maybe it was because Lê Nam Giệu and the others were arrested, plus a guilty conscience, so the Qu Lian didn't dare to report the theft. Another possibility was that she didn't have any knowledge of the law.
Although she hated the Qu Lian, she didn't want to see Lin Zhaoxi get away with it, so she went in and accompanied Lê Nam Giệu.
