"Auntie, how can you say that? Clearly, you pinched my hand, why won’t you admit it?" Cheng Li raised her voice, trying to draw the neighbors from next door.
So, while she accused Mrs. Jiang, she also listened for any sound. As soon as she heard the door opening, she was ready to push Mrs. Jiang out, to let everyone know what a vicious person she was.
Unfortunately, her calculations were wrong. Because there were only four households on this entire floor, and Jiang Xue had bought three of them.
As for the other one, nobody lived there yet at all.
"Ha, Cheng Li, I’ve seen shalessness, but never soone as shaless as you. You even used a self-inflicted injury trick on , you’re really willing to go that far. What do you want? Do you think this is still the village, still Mao Town? Truly laughable."
"Auntie, how can you say that about ? I didn’t use any self-inflicted injury trick, it’s clearly you who pinched my hand, why refuse to admit it?"
"I pinched your hand? With those words, aren’t you afraid of divine retribution for lying?"
This sentence made Cheng Li’s face change drastically. Plus, it had been quite a while, and she hadn’t heard any sound of doors opening, so her face turned sour.
So, she stopped pretending and said directly to Mrs. Jiang, "Auntie, since you’re not letting in, could you at least let Jiang Xue co out? I have sothing to discuss with her."
"Xue’er isn’t here. Whatever you have, just tell ." Mrs. Jiang said coldly. Cheng Li was clearly up to no good, and Mrs. Jiang didn’t plan to tell her Jiang Xue actually wasn’t living with her.
"Auntie, that wouldn’t be very appropriate. You should call her out, I want to tell her in person." Cheng Li acted like there was sothing she couldn’t say to Mrs. Jiang, which made Mrs. Jiang extrely angry, and she retreated and slamd the door shut.
"Say it if you want." As the door closed, these four words ca, making Cheng Li glare fiercely at the tightly closed door, as if trying to bore a hole through it with her gaze.
Before she ca, she had planned everything. For instance, how to make Jiang Xue believe her and leave with her. But she didn’t expect that it was Mrs. Jiang who opened the door, not Jiang Xue, preventing her from even seeing Jiang Xue.
If she had known, she would’ve waited at the entrance of the community, saving herself from this futile effort.
Thinking this way, Cheng Li waited a little longer. Seeing that the door still hadn’t opened and there was no activity from the neighbors, she left in a huff.
Fortunately, the people Jiang Mingzhu hired would remain nearby, waiting for her to bring Jiang Xue over, signaling for them to appear.
So now, she could only keep watch outside the community or at the stairway entrance, waiting for Jiang Xue to return. Cheng Li thought for a mont and decided it was better to stay at the stairway.
After all, there were several gates in the community, and she couldn’t watch them all alone. But the stairway was different; it’s Jiang Xue’s necessary path.
Thinking this way, she sat down directly at the stairway.
Jiang Xue saw everything happening outside until Cheng Li left, and only then did she close the door. However, she knew Cheng Li would not give up easily.
Back ho, Jiang Xue entered the space to ask Little Fox, wanting to know what Cheng Li’s plans were.
When Little Fox heard Cheng Li ca again, it thought for a mont and said, "Woman, you have to be careful. This woman won’t stop until she achieves her goals. How about you don’t go out for a few days?"
