"Auntie, I’m here to see Little Xue, is she ho?" Cheng Li looked at Mrs. Jiang, who was watching her warily and not letting her in, her face becoming a bit unpleasant.
But thinking about her purpose for coming today, she quickly put on a smile and said sincerely to Mrs. Jiang, "Auntie, I’m here to apologize to you and Little Xue. Can I co in and talk?"
"Say what you want right here." Mrs. Jiang gave Cheng Li a deep look and said coldly. Apologize? Sounds nice, but if she really ant to apologize, she wouldn’t have waited until now.
She couldn’t forget how Cheng Li ca to their house before and made her husband so angry that he fell ill. If Jiang Xue hadn’t co back, if she hadn’t co up with the money for her husband’s surgery, who knows what would have happened to their family.
And all this was thanks to Cheng Li.
So, seeing Cheng Li now, she wanted to slap her a few tis. However, she held back, still curious about Cheng Li’s purpose for coming.
"Auntie, I really am here to apologize to you," Cheng Li’s face beca even more unpleasant seeing that Mrs. Jiang wouldn’t let her in.
She didn’t know that only Jiang Xue’s family lived on this whole floor, so she was worried others might hear the commotion outside. If she said sothing bad and it got out, it wouldn’t be good.
Even if her reputation was already ruined, she still cared.
"I understand, you can leave now." Mrs. Jiang said faintly. She could see that Cheng Li certainly wasn’t up to any good. If it were a real apology, she wouldn’t have co empty-handed. Moreover, standing here for so long, she hadn’t even heard a single "I’m sorry."
"Auntie, how can you be like this?" Cheng Li never expected Mrs. Jiang to treat her so coldly and even want to send her away. Instantly she couldn’t keep up the act, looking angrily at Mrs. Jiang.
She hadn’t even seen Jiang Xue yet, how could she leave?
"What have I done?" Mrs. Jiang’s voice turned cold again, her dislike for Cheng Li stretching to the extre. Before, when Cheng Li and Jiang Xue were close, she often gave Cheng Li food and things, but what did she get in return? Cheng Li’s actions made Father Jiang ill.
Not only did she make soone sick with anger, but she was also unrepentant, and now she was up to no good again. Indeed, so people are ungrateful wretches that can’t be raised properly.
Cheng Li looked at Mrs. Jiang’s unyielding deanor and was furious. However, recalling her purpose for coming, she suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, and said, "Forget it, Auntie, I won’t talk to you. I’ll find Little Xue, let her co out and I’ll talk to her."
"Xue’er is not here!" Cheng Li spat out a few words coldly, turning to close the door. Unexpectedly, Cheng Li stretched out her hand, then cried out in a loud voice.
Mrs. Jiang hadn’t expected Cheng Li to reach inside at that mont, nor that she would scream so miserably, and she was dumbfounded at once.
At this point, Cheng Li put on an aggrieved look and began accusing Mrs. Jiang, "Auntie, I know you don’t like , but did you have to pinch my hand?"
"Look, my hand is all swollen from being pinched by you, what do you say about that?"
Mrs. Jiang snapped back to reality, hearing Cheng Li’s words, she was so angry she laughed, saying, "Cheng Li, originally I didn’t want to curse, but since you insist on acting like a fool asking for it, there’s nothing I can do about it."
"How does that saying go? A fool is a fool. You clearly brought your hand in yourself, yet you want to make a false countercharge, that really is so skill."
To fra her, she even resorted to self-inflicted injury. Indeed, this Cheng Li was no good person.
