With a crisp sound, the crystal box shattered instantly, and the pearls inside flew everywhere.
Jiang Kede screamed and dodged subconsciously. However, the sharp fragments still cut his cheek, leaving a long bloody mark.
Blood overflowed from the wound, slowly flowing down and dripping onto the floor.
At this time, he was completely sober from the wine.
Jiang Kede covered his face, glared at Jiang Kexin, and shouted: "Jiang Kexin, are you crazy?"
Jiang Kexin was stunned by this sudden scene. She didn't expect that she would actually hit Jiang Kede. She stared at her brother with wide eyes, filled with guilt and self-blame.
"I'm sorry, brother, I..."
"I'll accompany you to the hospital for a checkup. I'll go now. Don't worry, there won't be any scars."
Jiang Kede looked at Jiang Kexin's lost expression, and felt an inexplicable anger in his heart. He sneered and said to Jiang Kexin: "Huh, you are indeed a lunatic. Do you really think you can save the entire family? A fool like you will only bring greater shame to the family."
After saying that, Jiang Kede turned around angrily and left Jiang Kexin's room without looking back.
Looking at her brother's leaving figure, Jiang Kexin felt even more guilty. She collapsed on the ground, tears pouring out like a bursting flood.
She held her head in pain, sobbing and beating.
"I'm not stupid, I'm not!"
"Why do you say that to me? Why? Just because I am a daughter and you are a son?"
While crying, she picked up the pearls scattered on the floor one by one. They were even in size but of various colors.
Each one represents her love and wishful thinking for Leng Lingxiao.
Lingxiao Group has a foreign trade company that specializes in purchasing pearls from overseas markets, with a wide variety of pearls. It also has a direct store in Huangcheng, which mainly sells pearls for wholesale display, supplemented by customization.
This store is currently managed by relatives of Leng Lingxiao's mother's family.
Jiang Kexin has been buying what she thinks is the most beautiful crystal from a direct-operated store every month since she was eighteen years old. Now she has a crystal box full.
Her obsession with Leng Lingxiao is known to everyone in the socialite circle, and this matter is often joked about.
At this time, on the other side, on the first floor.
When Jiang Kede covered his face and strode past the living room, Mrs. Jiang was telling the housekeeper something. When she saw blood on her son's face, she was shocked, immediately got up and ran over.
"Ke De, what's going on?"
"Take your hands away quickly and let mom see."
Jiang Kede took advantage of the situation and told his mother what happened with an aggrieved look on his face.
Of course, adding fuel and vinegar is indispensable.
He said that in order to get a bank loan, he started drinking from night until dawn. Later, I heard the news that Leng Lingxiao received the certificate in Chicheng. I thought my sister would be very sad, so I ran to comfort her.
As an older brother, he spoke sincerely, and it was only out of good intentions that he wanted to persuade his sister.
I never thought this would happen.
After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang's anger instantly ignited. She didn't expect that her daughter would be so harsh on her brother.
Not to mention a crystal box, just a book being thrown at it. No one with flesh and blood can bear it.
"Lao Yang, send the young master to the hospital immediately."
The housekeeper nodded: "Yes, madam."
"Kexin, this child, is so ignorant." Mrs. Jiang said angrily, "If she doesn't accept the arrangement honestly, she only needs to be embarrassed outside, but she actually dares to murder her own brother. I think she is just using the excuse to steal the family property! "
Jiang Kede felt a little proud when he saw his mother's angry expression.
He knew that his mother had always loved him very much, and now that he was injured, her mother would definitely vent her anger on his behalf, so he happily left the living room.
The butler followed closely, looking helpless.
family property? Now that things have happened, your Jiang family...what other family property do you have left to swallow?
Hey, only when the family is harmonious can everything be prosperous!
"Kexin, you crazy girl, how could you do such a thing? Your brother hasn't even talked about his wife yet. What do you want him to do in the future?"
Mrs. Jiang walked straight upstairs.
She scolded her as she walked, completely ignoring her daughter's face and the surprised looks of the servants.
At the same time, Jiang Kexin also heard her mother's roar. Her heart trembled, she quickly adjusted her mood and walked out of the bedroom quickly.
After all, it was already a mess inside, and if my mother saw her again, she would be reluctant to let her go.
The mother and daughter met at the entrance of the stairs.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Jiang Kexin walked up to Mrs. Jiang timidly, lowered her head, and apologized softly.
Tears flashed and eyes were red.
Mrs. Jiang glared at her fiercely: "Do you know what you have done? Look at your brother's injuries. You are such an unworthy child. I shouldn't have given birth to you in the first place."
"I really didn't mean it. I'm going to see my brother now. I will..."
"You still think your brother has a long life, and you still want to chase him to the hospital? Hey, I'm really angry! No wonder the fortune teller said that you have a bad fate, why did I give birth to an ungrateful thing like you?"
Jiang Kexin burst into tears as she listened to her mother's scolding. She didn't dare to refute anything. After all, it was her fault, so she could only suffer it silently.
But what does it mean to be guilty of fate?
Could it be that something happened to me after I went abroad in high school, so my family began to dislike me and never wanted me to return to China?
Damn it, this damn fortune teller!
Naturally, Jiang Kexin would not know that this matter was specially arranged by Leng Lingxiao.
Who asked her to make trouble in front of Mrs. Leng ten years ago, say bad things about Tang Xiaowan, and said that the reason why Tang Xiaowan had no parents was because of bad luck.
Treat others in their own way.
It was not an exaggeration at all for Jiang Kexin to do this, but it just happened that her parents were patriarchal people, so she believed it.
It’s not surprising that a bowl of water is uneven.
…
Lingxiao Manor, master bedroom on the second floor.
At this time, two hours had passed since Tang Xiaowan's blood was taken from her fingertips, and the eye of the needle had been closed, but Leng Lingxiao was still sitting by the bed.
He didn't feel at ease if he didn't guard it personally, even though the security system of Lingxiao Manor was very complete, and even some of the security guards were composed of mercenaries.
Suddenly, there were three knocks on the door.
Leng Lingxiao quickly stood up and went to the door.
"Master, I have asked, and the results will be available in half an hour." Zhao Renjie replied softly.
"Okay, how is the Jiang family's situation?"
"An hour and a half ago, Jiang Kede was injured by Jiang Kexin and received five stitches on his face. Jiang Yongheng knew that he had a gastrointestinal problem and is currently in the hospital. Other relatives in the family are also making noises about withdrawing their capital and shares. It is estimated that it will be maintained in another week. Can’t go down anymore.”
"Too slow." Leng Lingxiao played with the brass lighter, a coldness flashed in his dark eyes, "What do you think?"
"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."
"Wait a minute, what is Wang Junchen doing over there? He hasn't returned to Huangcheng yet?"
"In the morning in Jincheng, I met with the directors of two hospitals and talked about two kinds of Chinese patent medicines, one for oral use and one for external use. I plan to return to Huangcheng at four o'clock in the afternoon. The day after tomorrow is Ye Wanhua's birthday."
"Chinese patent medicine? It seems...Wang Junchen is trying to compete with Li Zishen for business!"
Zhao Renjie nodded: "Probably."
"Birthday the day after tomorrow? Weekend!"
"Master wants to be with Madam..."
While the two were talking, Tang Xiaowan's cell phone suddenly lit up and buzzed non-stop.
