After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 435 - 433: How Could He Not Understand Her Thoughts?
Chapter 435: Chapter 433: How Could He Not Understand Her Thoughts?
Song Sinian had thought he could manage, but in the end, he couldn’t even care if his arm was hurt as he took control of the situation himself.
All night, only the intermittent sobs of Lu Zhaozhao filled the room.
...
Winter days dawn much later than usual; it wasn’t until 6 a.m. that the sky began to lighten.
Xiao Jinglan had left the hospital early and returned home, since Xiao Mo had recently been busy contacting board members and hadn’t come home much.
As soon as she entered, she saw Xia Wenjin walking down from the second floor.
A flash of resentment swept through Xiao Jinglan’s eyes.
It was this woman!
Had it not been for her, she wouldn’t have angered Mr. Song, nor would she have been driven out of the Song Family.
Nor would Song Keren have married Justin and been marginalized!
If it hadn’t been for this woman’s scheming, Xiao Mo wouldn’t have married her, nor would he have been driven out by Mr. Song.
Everything was because of this woman’s arrival that she, Xiao Mo, and Song Keren had ended up in such misery!
Before they all thrived because of the Song Family, but everything changed after they encountered Xia Wenjin.
Thinking that her current ruined health was also because of Xia Wenjin, and that her days were numbered, she hated her even more.
She had thought that since Xia Wenjin knew Xiao Mo’s identity, being too blatant in her actions might harm Xiao Mo.
But if she could kill Xia Wenjin, Xiao Mo would lose this burden and could find a better woman...
She was already dying; what did she have to worry about?
Xiao Jinglan glanced at Xia Wenjin, an idea forming in her mind.
Killing Xia Wenjin, that really was a good idea!
Xia Wenjin felt uneasy under Xiao Jinglan’s stare.
She couldn’t explain why, but she always felt Xiao Jinglan’s gaze was sinister since her return from the hospital.
Surely Xiao Jinglan hadn’t discovered that she had been poisoned?
Xia Wenjin dismissed the thought in three seconds; knowing Xiao Jinglan, if she had known, she would have taken vengeance instantly, not just looked at her ominously.
"Why didn’t you visit me in the hospital when you were clearly at home and free these past few days?" Xiao Jinglan sensed her earlier attitude was odd, so she took the opportunity to ask this.
Xia Wenjin was secretly relieved. Clearly, Xiao Jinglan hadn’t discovered the poisoning.
She immediately forced a smile and responded, "I just learned you were hospitalized and was planning to visit, but I didn’t expect you to have already been discharged."
Xia Wenjin added, "As you know, Xiao Mo has been very busy, so he didn’t inform me about your hospitalization."
Xiao Jinglan knew exactly what Xiao Mo had been busy doing. Besides, she had merely made up an excuse to brush off Xia Wenjin, so she didn’t plan to press the issue.
She glanced coldly at Xia Wenjin and said coldly, "It seems you revel in my misfortune, hearing I was sick and hospitalized must have pleased you!"
The relationship between Xiao Jinglan and Xia Wenjin was never good; their confrontational dialogue was normal, and it would have been strange if Xiao Jinglan spoke to Xia Wenjin kindly.
Indeed, as soon as Xia Wenjin heard what Xiao Jinglan had said, her originally somewhat guilty heart immediately calmed down.
She hung a flattering smile on her face and said, "How could that be? You are Xiao Mo’s mother and thus my mother-in-law. Only if you are healthy can Xiao Mo strive well in his career outside, right?"
"..."
Xiao Jinglan did not speak, but felt this statement to be particularly mocking. If it were not for her current weakness due to this poison, she would definitely have leaped at her and strangled this bitch!
Xiao Jinglan’s expression darkened, "Mind your business regarding Xiao Mo, and just stay put."
Xia Wenjin nodded without arguing back.
It wasn’t that she was broad-minded, but she felt it wasn’t worth wasting words on a dying person.
How could Xiao Jinglan not understand her thoughts?
No wonder Xia Wenjin had become particularly docile recently, she was clearly waiting for her here, truly a woman with a heart of a scorpion!
Xiao Jinglan walked over to the sofa in the living room and sat down, lifting her head to look at Xia Wenjin, "This weekend, accompany me on a trip. I’ll introduce the Shangjing Circle’s ladies to you."
Xia Wenjin looked somewhat surprised at Xiao Jinglan.
She had lived abroad before and had not come into contact with the noblewomen and ladies of the Shangjing Circle after arriving in Shangjing.
When the Lu Family was at its height, Mr. and Mrs. Lu never thought of letting her meet those noblewomen and ladies of Shangjing Circle.
After all, there were countless people flattering their family every day, so there was no need for her mother to personally take her out to meet others.
Now, the Lu Family had fallen, and her reputation was also ruined.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu had also disappeared somewhere.
Therefore, she had absolutely no opportunity to meet those noblewomen and ladies of Shangjing Circle.
If Xiao Jinglan could bring her into contact with people of the Shangjing Circle, that wouldn’t be bad, but would she be so kindhearted?
She had just been acting haughty and aloof.
Xiao Jinglan glanced at Xia Wenjin, scoffed coldly, "Don’t think I’ve accepted you. I am only worried about our Xiao Mo. His position in the Song Group is not stable and needs connections. As for you, you are just passable."
Although Xia Wenjin was quite annoyed by the way Xiao Jinglan spoke of her, her words had successfully dispelled her doubts. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Xiao Jinglan had chosen her because there was no other choice.
It was fine; she didn’t expect Xiao Jinglan to recognize her.
After all, this woman would soon leave this world, and there was no need for her to bother about it.
Thinking this, Xia Wenjin again forced a smile, "I understand that you are doing this for Xiao Mo’s good because we don’t share any affection, so it’s better to clarify it now for the sake of us both."
Xiao Jinglan snorted coldly, "At least you’re self-aware. From now on, you’d better be more careful around Xiao Mo!"
Watching Xia Wenjin slowly letting down her guard and falling into her trap, Xiao Jinglan’s expression became much more pleasant.
She slowly stood up from the sofa, her gaze lingering on Xia Wenjin for a while before continuing, "Go to the clothing store and pick a few presentable outfits. Don’t embarrass Xiao Mo when the time comes."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Jinglan pulled out a card from her pocket and threw it down in front of Xia Wenjin, "Use this card to buy whatever clothes you need, and also, keep your cunning thoughts to yourself, and it’s best not to be caught red-handed by me."
Xia Wenjin bent down to pick up the card thrown on the sofa, her smile becoming even more brilliant, "Okay, I’ll certainly live a good life with Xiao Mo after."
Of course... after Xiao Jinglan has passed away.
