Transmigrated as the Chongxi Wife of a Critically Ill Young Lady - Chapter 57
Chapter 57
As Jiang He had said, as soon as Jiwanching and Cen Xia left for the Moshan area, Jiang Yiye made a big move and poached the Ji Corporation’s partner hotels.
By the time the head of the headquarters messaged Jiwanching, they were almost at Moshan.
After a bumpy ride, her body was already at its limit. Receiving this news, her face became even paler.
Cen Xia pulled her into her arms, kissing her for comfort. “Sister, what’s wrong?”
Jiwanching was too tired to move and showed her the phone.
Cen Xia read it carefully and said, “It really is as General Manager Jiang said. Luckily, she tipped us off. But if her grandpa found out, he’d probably pass out from anger, right?”
Jiwanching was not feeling well, and her emotions were a mess. Hearing Cen Xia praising Jiang He, her heart suddenly ached.
Cen Xia didn’t notice. Since someone had tipped them off, she thought the problem wouldn’t be too difficult to solve, so she kept asking, “Do we still want to cooperate with that old fox from last time, Sister?”
Jiwanching looked at her and decisively raised her hand.
“No.”
Cen Xia was startled and asked, “Why not, Sister? Didn’t General Manager Jiang say she had him under her thumb?”
Her question was rushed due to her worry, but to Jiwanching, it sounded like an accusation.
She pushed Cen Xia away and gestured quickly.
“We’re not close. I don’t trust her. I don’t trust Jiang He!”
Cen Xia was stunned. In her eyes, Jiwanching was a person who was clear about her feelings. Even though Jiang He had given her a hard time before, she didn’t hold it against her. And when she found out that Jiang He’s Xiaxia was gone, she even cried for her. What was wrong with her today? She suddenly became so petty.
At this critical moment, she still tried to persuade her.
“Sister, General Manager Jiang isn’t a bad person. She just didn’t know the truth before. And she was drugged. Her grandpa just loves his granddaughter. We need to understand them.”
“Given the current situation, since she is willing to go against her grandpa to help us, we can try to accept it and get through this difficult time first, right?”
After hearing this, Jiwanching struggled to break free from her embrace.
Cen Xia didn’t react in time. Jiwanching fell from the seat with a thud.
“Sister!” Cen Xia was terrified. She quickly picked her up from the gap and held her tightly in her arms.
Jiwanching couldn’t feel the pain in her body. She just tried hard to pry Cen Xia’s fingers off her.
Cen Xia was a little angry and shouted, “Jiwanching, what are you doing?”
In the front seat, Yan Shuang was woken up from his nap and looked back.
Jiwanching heard her scolding. Her hand movements stopped. She was stunned for a few seconds, then she lowered her head and started to cry.
She couldn’t control her emotions. Her thin body trembled slightly. She was only sobbing, and her whole body was shaking.
Cen Xia still didn’t understand what was going on. She just instinctively lifted her into her arms and kissed her lips, forcefully taking away the air around her, trying to use this method to calm Jiwanching down.
Yan Shuang was about to ask what was going on, but seeing them like this, he swallowed the words and pretended he hadn’t seen anything. He continued to rest with his eyes closed, but he was actually very nervous.
Jiwanching’s vision was dark. Cen Xia only stopped when her breathing was almost cut off.
After she had recovered for a while, she met her gaze. Seeing Cen Xia glaring at her, her tears fell in torrents as she cried and gestured.
“General Manager Jiang is closer to you than I am. She can think of everything. I can’t do anything right.”
“You’re close with her, so go find her. Why are you following me all the way here?”
“She’s so excellent and takes such good care of you. How can I, in my state, compare to her? It’s impossible for me to ever be better than her!”
…
She gestured in a somewhat unreasonable manner. In the end, her arms were too tired to be lifted, but she was still sobbing and gesturing.
“No one wants me anymore. No one wants me anymore…”
Cen Xia’s eyes filled with tears. She hugged her tightly, pressed her forehead against Jiwanching’s, and comforted her repeatedly, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Sister. It’s my fault. Xiaxia wants you. Xiaxia wants you.”
Jiwanching was comforted like this, and the sadness in her heart eased a little. But she was too weak. Her body was being held up by Cen Xia, so she couldn’t free her hands. She just cried in a muffled voice, gasping for air and struggling to get the words out.
“Xiaxia… likes… someone else, but… I… can’t… bear to… give up.”
Cen Xia lowered her head, kissed her forehead, and said, “Xiaxia doesn’t like anyone else. Xiaxia likes Wanqing. Xiaxia only likes Wanqing.”
Jiwanching became even sadder, so sad that she wanted to vomit. She swallowed frequently and squeezed out four words: “My… Xiaxia.”
After saying that, she retched from nausea.
“Dr. Yan!” Cen Xia called out to Yan Shuang.
He couldn’t stop on the highway. He turned his head, took a look, and said, “She’s too uncomfortable. Lay her flat and press on her chest.”
Cen Xia did as she was told, stroking her chest and saying, “Hang in there, Sister. The next exit is Moshan. The scenery there is beautiful. I’ll take you for a walk to get some fresh air…”
Jiwanching felt a little more comfortable wrapped in Cen Xia’s gentle voice. She pressed Cen Xia’s hand against her chest, holding it there tightly. Her heart felt much more at ease.
Soon, the car arrived at Moshan. The driver found a place to stop, and Yan Shuang quickly gave her an injection. He advised her with a few words, “Miss, don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”
Jiwanching’s mood had calmed down a lot. She regretted her unreasonable behavior in the car just now.
Xiaxia had it so hard, running around with her, and yet she lost her temper at her. She knew that Cen Xia only had her in her heart, but when she saw a person who was much better than her messaging her, she just couldn’t control herself.
But even though she had lost her temper with her, Cen Xia showed no resentment. She was even better to her than before.
She hugged her, comforted her, spoiled her, and spoke to her carefully. “Sister, we’re here. See? I told you the scenery here is amazing. Do you want to get out and walk around?”
Jiwanching’s eyes were red. She bit her lip and nodded.
Cen Xia carried her out of the car. The driver was about to get the wheelchair, but Cen Xia said, “No need to trouble yourself. I’ll just carry Sister for a walk. It’s too tiring to sit all the time.”
The driver put the wheelchair back in the car. Cen Xia carried her and walked toward a few large rocks nearby.
The scenery here was indeed beautiful. With green mountains and water, the summer breeze felt very comfortable on their faces. Both of their moods improved.
Jiwanching wrapped her arms around Cen Xia’s neck and lightly called her name.
Cen Xia looked down at her, a sweet smile on her lips.
She freed a hand and poked her little dimple. She tried her best to make the three words come out consecutively. “I’m sorry!”
Cen Xia pressed her lips against Jiwanching’s forehead and said, “It was my fault for not thinking it through. Sister is jealous because you care, and Xiaxia is very happy. But my heart aches for you. Don’t be like this again.”
Jiwanching nodded. She tried hard to lift herself to kiss her lips but failed.
Cen Xia lowered her head and touched her lips lightly. “This is Sister’s reward!”
Jiwanching licked her lips and licked again. She pursed her lips and smiled, looking very content.
Cen Xia looked at the stone monument with “Moshan Scenic Area” carved on it and said to Jiwanching, “Sister, this is our first trip together. Do you want to take a picture to remember it?”
Jiwanching nodded repeatedly. “Take… a picture, post… it… on… Weibo.”
Cen Xia said, “Sister, sit against the monument, and I’ll take your picture.”
Jiwanching shook her head. She hugged Cen Xia’s neck tightly, held her breath for a long time, and said, “Yan… Shuang, take it.”
In a moment, Dr. Yan came over with his phone, looking reluctant. He thought, women in love are so strange. A moment ago, she was half-dead, but now she looks like she’s eaten honey.
He opened the camera and said to them seriously, “Miss, are you ready?”
Jiwanching nodded. As soon as Dr. Yan focused the camera, he heard someone refuse with a kitten-like “Mhmm.”
Yan Shuang looked up at her.
Jiwanching stuttered, “Use… my… phone. Yours… has bad… pixels!”
Yan Shuang: “…”
He said in a cold voice, “Miss, this is an iPhone XX Pro.”
Jiwanching seemed not to hear him. She took out her own phone, stretched her arm out, and looked very happy.
Dr. Yan had no choice but to put his phone in his pocket. He took her phone, looked at it, and clicked his tongue in his mind. She had the nerve to say his phone had bad pixels.
He searched for the camera app in the menu for a long time but couldn’t find it.
Jiwanching had already posed, and her face was stiff from smiling. Cen Xia was also getting a little cramped.
Yan Shuang really couldn’t find the camera app, so he had to ask in a cold voice, “Miss, where is your camera?”
Cen Xia: “…”
Jiwanching: “!!!”
Dr. Yan looked up and saw the sharp eyes of the eldest daughter.
She glared at him, trying hard to organize her words. She came out with four words: “Meitu… Xiuxiu!”
The words were originally meant to be heavy, but her throat couldn’t produce enough force, so they came out light and airy, without any intimidation.
Yan Shuang took a closer look and saw the Meitu Xiuxiu app in the most obvious spot on the screen. He clicked on it, studied it for a while, and then took a few very touristy photos of them.
Jiwanching excitedly got the phone, opened the photos, and instantly wanted to throw the phone at the photographer.
He had taken a dozen photos in a burst, and not a single one was good. Either the kiss was crooked or the face was blurry. Even more incredibly, some of them were blurry ghost images. She, a former superstar, had never lost to a camera before. This time, she was completely ruined.
After being despised by the eldest daughter, the photographer, Dr. Yan, dejectedly returned to the car. He thought to himself, she’s difficult to serve. In the future, even if they bribe me with snacks, I will not be a coolie for these two people. He was a dignified doctor, and he was being forced to eat their PDA!
After playing by the monument for a while, Jiwanching’s mood relaxed. The group went to the “Pearl Light · Moshan No. 1” villa. Since Liu Jiming hadn’t replied to their email, they found out his address and drove directly to his place.
They drove to the villa gate and were stopped by a security guard. Jiwanching found his contact information, and her fingers landed on the screen, sending a very long text message to Liu Jiming.
They waited in the car for almost an hour. Then, a male secretary in a suit came out, his posture straight.
“Miss Ji, the boss said you can come in!”
