"Hurry up and do it, what are you waiting for?" Cao Guifang looked at the trophy lovingly. She glanced at Jiang Tingrou and said, "Xin 'er is still growing. She can't go hungry."
"Thank you, Grandma," Xin hurriedly said obediently.
Jiang Tingrou was so angry that her liver was about to explode. She gritted her teeth and went to the kitchen.
When they were eating noodles, Cao Guifang sat opposite Xin. Why didn't she realize that her granddaughter was so smart in the past? She got first place in the exam and even helped Youkang save his company. Now, she even won an impressive championship.
Now, Cao Guifang found Xin pleasing to the eye. She said kindly, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
Xin coughed, "Cough, cough, cough …"
Cao Guifang's change was too great. It really made Shu Xin feel flattered. She was so shocked that she choked.
Cao Guifang hurriedly stood up and patted Xin's back. "Slow down, slow down." Then she turned and ordered Jiang Tingrou, who was sitting on the sofa, "Go and pour a glass of water for Xin 'er."
"… Oh." Jiang Tingrou was so angry that she almost vomited blood. Was she addicted to ordering her around?
At night, Shu Youkang came back from a social gathering. He couldn't help but feel proud and praised again.
Cao Guifang was also someone who had lived a hard life. Ever since Shu Youkang started his company and started making money, she and her son enjoyed a good life. Thus, she still had the power and gossip of a commoner.
The next day, she went out early in the morning. In less than an hour, all the neighbors knew that Xin won the championship. In addition, Cao Guifang told them about Shu Mengling's description of the championship. They all said that Cao Guifang raised a good granddaughter.
Cao Guifang was full of praises and couldn't stop smiling.
Shu Mengling and Jiang Tingrou were so angry that they didn't even eat breakfast. They stayed in their room and didn't come out.
Shu Mengling said anxiously, "Mom, you have to think of a way. We can't let Shuxin continue to be so proud. Dad doesn't like us. If even Grandma is on Shuxin's side, how can we still have a foothold in the Shu family?"
Even Jiang Tingrou, who had always been able to keep her composure, had a worried expression on her face. Ever since the day they were preparing to change Shu Mengling's heart and Shuxin had escaped from the hospital, she seemed to have changed into a different person. She was no longer the silly girl that she and Shu Mengling could coax into obedience with just a few words.
Her proposal and design drawings had been approved by the head of the Huo Corporation. She had gotten first place in the exam and returned to school. Now, she had won the championship of a design competition. All of this was completely out of her control.
She was already on the operating table. She was only one step away from the heart transplant, and her plan could be realized. However, at the most critical moment, Shuxin, this chess piece, was out of her control. What went wrong?
Could it be that Shuxin had found out about their plan?
No, that was impossible. Only she, Shu Mengling, and Xiao Ruize knew about the heart transplant plan. She and Shu Mengling wouldn't tell anyone, and neither would Xiao Ruize. Once the fact that he had bribed the hospital director to perform the operation was exposed, no hospital would dare to hire him in the future. He wouldn't do something that would destroy his future.
Jiang Tingrou thought about it and felt that Shuxin must have suddenly been enlightened. It seemed that coaxing wouldn't work. She had to use some other methods. Otherwise, if Shuxin continued to shine like this, not only would they have no foothold in the Shu family, but Shu Mengling would also die because she didn't have a healthy heart. No, she would never let that happen.
She wanted the Shu family, and she also wanted her daughter!
