Chapter 42: So Treacherous
ings. Suddenly, her heart felt much clearer. 。At that moment, Xiang Tian also happened to think of her marriage problems and quietly left the kitchen doorway. 。He walked around the living room and gl...Towards the sky walked to Xu Lingwei's side, and handed her the check that Li Hui had given him: "Auntie, this is the remaining 200,000 yuan."
Xu Lingwei was a little embarrassed when she saw Xiang Tian, but seeing this check, all her thoughts flew out of her head. She was surprised and stood up: "Where did you get the money"
"Of course, I'm going to ask Li Jia to return it!" Xiang Tian smiled.
"You went to them!" Xu Lingwei's smile vanished in an instant, and she grabbed Xiangtian's arm, asking nervously, "They didn't do anything to you, did they"
“Don’t worry, Aunt,” Xiang Tian didn’t want to make Xu Lingwei worried, so he stopped joking with her and told her goodbye. After she left, he told Li Hui about his visit and everything that happened, including the Xuan Huang Ji Shi needle he learned from Chen Qian and his experience working at Tong He Hospital.
"You're practicing acupuncture now, and you even signed a work contract with the hospital A million dollars a year" Xu Lingwei exclaimed in surprise.
Since Xiang Tian learned that sinister martial art, she seemed to become powerful overnight, so powerful that she was almost unrecognizable. What Xiang Tian just said sounded like a fairy tale, she couldn't believe it.
"Yeah, last time I was afraid you'd worry so I didn't tell you the truth. Little Aunt, am I amazing" Xiang Tian sat at the table, smiling at Xu Lingwei.
"Amazing, so amazing!" Xu Lingwei stared at Xiang Tian, her eyes suddenly glistening, as if she were about to cry: "Xiaotian, your parents would be so happy if they knew you'd become this powerful."
"Alright, Auntie, don't be like that. It's a good thing I've gotten better, why are you so sad" Xiang Tian made a few funny faces and soon made Xu Lingwei happy again.
“I’m not sad, I’m happy!” Xu Lingwei wiped the tears from her eyes and looked up at the sky. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions. The little boy who had cried and begged for his mother back then had truly grown up, becoming an adult capable of earning money to support his family.
Xiang Tian helped Xu Lingwei sit down, then knelt in front of her and said, “Little aunt, I'm much stronger now. You don’t have to be so tired. From now on, let me take care of you and make you plump and white.”
Xu Lingwei covered her mouth and laughed nonstop: "You're treating your aunt like a pig!"
"Heh heh, even if she's raised like a pig, my aunt is still a beautiful pig!"
Xu Lingwei's pretty face was flushed, and she glared at him without any intimidation: "Don't talk nonsense, let go quickly, I have to go to finance to pay the money."
Smiling at the sky, Xiang Tianxiao stepped aside. After Xu Lingwei took the check to the finance department, he sat down in her seat and casually looked around.
Under the glass tabletop before Xu Lingwei were many photos, including some of her and Xiangtian together, as well as some solo pictures of Xiangtian. There were about a dozen in total.
Over the years, although financially tight, Hsu Ling-wei has always saved money to take Xiangtian on trips around the country each year. In her words, reading ten thousand books is no substitute for traveling ten thousand miles. Going out and broadening one's horizons is helpful for Xiangtian's perspective.
These photos under the table were taken during a trip.
Looking at these photos, warm memories of the past rush back, filling my heart with happiness.
"Auntie, I will definitely make you very happy!"
……
Two days later, Li Kang was discharged from the hospital and returned to the luxurious villa of the Li family.
After two days of careful treatment, he now looks much better. Not only has color returned to his face, but he can also walk a few minutes on the ground. However, the nurses and caregivers hired by the Li family are all scared and cautious because although Li Kang is getting better physically, his temper has become extremely bad. He yells at people and hits them at random.
They didn't know why Li Kang had become like this. They wanted to leave but couldn't bear to give up the high salary offered by Li's family, and they were also afraid of being reprimanded by Li's family. All they could do was endure in silence and continue working.
During dinner, a female caregiver accidentally splashed soup onto Li Kang's chest. Li Kang immediately raised his hand and slapped her, sending the eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl crashing to the ground. The soup bowl also shattered on impact.
"Get out, all of you, get out!"
Several nannies and caregivers were so frightened that their bodies trembled, they quickly fled the room.
After a few minutes, Old Madam Yang walked into the room with her cane. Her complexion was much worse than it had been a few days ago. She glanced at the mess on the floor and let out a soft sigh: “Kangkang, don't get angry. Your body isn't fully recovered yet.”
Li Kang was still lying in bed. Hearing Granny Yang's voice, he remained sullen and refused to look at her. Granny Yang didn't seem to mind, she walked to the bedside and sat down.
"Kang Kang, don't worry either. When your body recovers, we'll go see a doctor again. You'll definitely get better."
"What a load of crap!" Li Kang suddenly raised his head, staring at the photo of him and Li Hui on the opposite wall. A wild fury burned in his eyes: "I've already let that bastard Xiang screw things up. He definitely won't turn out alright."
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Old Madam Yang: "Mom, I heard they say that Li Hui found his biological parents"
Grandmother Yang nodded. "Xiao Hui told me about this, said she wanted to bring them here."
"Hmph, you want me to take this" Li Kang sneered with a ferocious expression, "Mom, don't you see I became like this because of him and that Wang bastard surnamed Xiang. He's afraid our Li family will benefit from his fame and steal his fortune."
He pounded the bed heavily and growled, “Don't be fooled by his hypocritical act of gratitude for our Li family's upbringing. He's always wanted to leave our family and go back to his original surname.”
Grandma Yang was startled by his words: "Kangkang, don't talk nonsense. Your brother is truly sincere to you."
“Sincerely Don't give me that!” Li Kang gritted his teeth and said, “If he truly cared for me, would he collude with outsiders to make me a cripple If he truly cared for me, why didn't he catch that Xiang fellow I think he's just putting on a show of sympathy. Just wait, it won't be long before my old illness relapses, and I die. Then Li Hui will also change his surname and leave our Li family. From then on, our Li family will be completely cut off.”
He turned his head and glared at Old Madam Yang: "Mom, do you believe me or him"
"I trust you, you are my own flesh and blood, of course I believe you." Old Madam Yang quickly said, in fact, she had also thought about what Li Kang said, but it wasn't as extreme as him. But seeing Li Kang say this so confidently, she did have some doubts about Li Hui in her heart.
"Well, didn't he say that before He owes everything to our Li family. Mom, go tell him right now: if he's willing to hand over all the shares of Lijing, then he'll be innocent, and I'll treat him as my older brother from now on. Otherwise, let him get out of our Li family immediately and never step foot in our Li family again!"
"Kang Kang, are you trying to kill your big brother!" Old Madam Yang's expression changed drastically. "Your big brother worked hard for over a decade to establish Lijing, and these years he has also—"
"Stop talking!" Li Kang looked mad, shouting, "Go bring him here! I want to speak with him!"
For a moment, Li Kang threw everything off the bedside table. The room was filled with shards and debris.
Elder Yang, having no choice, later retreated from the room and sent someone to call for Li Hui.
About half an hour later, Li Hui rushed back from the company.
"Xiao Kang, how are you feeling today By the way, I heard they say you had something urgent to tell me. Now that I'm back, go ahead."
Li Hui walked to Li Kang's bedside and sat down on a chair. He glanced around and noticed there was someone else in the room, "Xiao Kang, is this your friend How come you didn't introduce us"
That man was thin with a gaunt face. He wore a black long-sleeved T-shirt. When he saw Kurihara looking over, he smiled: "Mr. Kurihara, my name is Xu Yong. I heard that Shao Kang was sick, so I came to see him."
This Xu Yong had very little flesh on his face, looking like a skeleton wrapped in skin. When he smiled, it was creepy and unsettling.
Li Hui expressed his gratitude and then turned to Li Kang, who looked gloomy. "Xiao Kang," he said, "why don't you wear this jade pendant I heard it can help you recover quickly."
He was holding the jade pendant of the chicken zodiac that had been given to him by Heaven. Li Kang had always refused to wear it, so it remained by his side.
Li Kang glanced at the jade pendant and snorted coldly: "I'm afraid I'll die even worse after wearing it!"
"Xiaokang, what are you saying!" Lihui was a little annoyed.
"What do you say I said you colluded with that Xiang to harm me. My good brother, isn't that right"
Li Hui suddenly stood up, trembling with anger: "Xiao Kang, how can you say that How could your older brother harm you"
"Hmph!" Li Kang coldly stared at Li Hui, "If not, then transfer all of Lijing's shares to my name. Only then will I believe you."
Li Hui's face turned pale with anger. He never expected Li Kang to say such a thing. He had worked hard all day, and his health wasn't good. Sometimes he would suffer from high blood pressure. Li Kang's words enraged him, causing his blood pressure to spike instantly. He felt dizzy and lightheaded, collapsing onto the chair.
"Alright, alright, alright. You want scenery, I'll give you scenery." After a while, when Kuriki's breathing gradually stabilized, he said, "But it will take some time. These days, I'm negotiating with the city about a piece of land. If we transfer shares at this time, this deal will definitely be greatly affected."
Hearing his words, Li Kang's lips curled into a sarcastic smile, and he turned to glance at Xu Yong.
Xu Yong nodded slightly. He took his right hand out of his pocket and, with a flick of his fingers, shot a yellow stream of energy towards Li Hui. It struck him, causing a pale yellow mist to rise and engulf Li Hui within it.

When the door closed, Li Kang let out a cold snort. “What do you mean ‘in a few days’ You just want to transfer your assets! Humph, don't even think about taking a penny!”
Xu Yong laughed and said beside him, "Young Master Kang, don't worry, he will be bedridden tonight, unconscious. Within a month, he will die."
Li Kang nodded, a sinister smile playing at the corner of his mouth.t me!" Lin Ling shouted. 。The person she was tangled with didn't expect anyone to come over. His movements stopped, and he turned around and ran, disappearing into the darkness in the blink of an eye....
