Trying to Murder Her Granddaughter-in-law

Xia Ling's innocent look had probably fooled many people, but Xia Chenxing did not fall for it. He said lightly, "Save it, Xia Ling. Acting in front of me is useless. You clearly know that Xia Lan and I don't get along, but you still persuaded her to come to me for help. In the end, you caused a scene in the hospital. This way, you can take the opportunity to spread the news of her pregnancy to Uncle. When that time comes, Xia Lan will definitely fall out of favor, and your chance to replace her will come. Unfortunately, the plan is not bad, but you shouldn't use me because I won't be used by you." With that, she brushed past Xia Ling's shoulder and was about to leave.

Seeing that her plan had been exposed, Xia Ling stopped pretending to be innocent and weak. She suddenly turned around and said, "Cousin, we're the same kind of people. We're also not valued by the family. We should help each other. What do you think, Cousin?"

Xia Chenxing looked back and smiled. She said to Xia Ling, "You're wrong. I'm different from you. My mother is Xia Zhiguang's official wife, and I'm the legitimate daughter of the Xia family. Even if I'm not favored, I'm different from you." With that, she left coolly.

Xia Ling clenched her fists tightly and watched Xia Chenxing leave with hatred. She swore to herself that one day, she would trample on everyone who looked down on her!

… .

After work, Xia Chenxing drove back to the old residence.

Ever since Old Madam Li protected Xia Chenxing last time, the Li family no longer dared to underestimate her. She could do whatever she wanted in the old residence and did not have to follow any more rules. She lay lazily on the bed and played mobile games, completely different from her usual serious appearance at work. Suddenly, something flew towards her and she subconsciously grabbed it.

"You're a quick thinker, Miss," Aunt May said with a smile.

Only then did Xia Chenxing realize that it was Old Madam Li and Aunt Mei. She hurriedly stood up and said coquettishly, "Grandma, you're trying to murder your own granddaughter-in-law!"

"Hmph, if you can't even catch this, you deserve to be smashed," Old Madam Li said. She sat on the bed with Aunt Mei's help and said, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and open it to see if you like it or not."

"Okay," Xia Chenxing quickly replied and opened the big black velvet box in her hand. She said in surprise, "Grandmother, you hit the jackpot. Why did you think of buying me a gown?"

Old Madam Li flicked her forehead and said, "What are you talking about, little girl? When did I give you less pocket money?"

Xia Chenxing covered her forehead and stuck out her tongue. "For the sake of the gown, I won't argue with Grandmother!" She draped the gown over her body and liked it no matter how she looked at it. She said, "Grandmother has such good taste now. Looks like my hard work these past few years wasn't in vain!"

Aunt Mei covered her mouth and laughed. She loved watching the two of them bicker.

"Stupid girl, how can you speak so rudely? Other than you, no one in the Li family dares to speak to Grandmother like this. You're asking for a beating!" Old Madam Li pretended to be angry, but everyone could see the love in her eyes.

"Sure, Grandmother. Just don't feel bad if you hurt me!" Xia Chenxing said mischievously.

Old Madam Li did not know whether to laugh or cry. She really could not do anything about this little girl.

"By the way, Grandmother, why did you suddenly think of buying me a gown? I happen to need a gown," Xia Chenxing said as she looked at the gown.

Old Madam Li did not answer her question directly. Instead, she said, "Why do you care so much? Just keep the gown well."

The two of them chatted for a long time. They didn't look like grandfather and granddaughter, but like old friends who had spent many years together.

When Old Madam Li returned to her room, she instructed Aunt Mei to call Li Ruixu. Once the call went through, she said coldly, "I just wanted to let you know that Grandmother has completed the mission you gave her."

Li Rui knew the old madam was unhappy when he heard her voice. He looked at the accounts for the past three years and replied casually, "Got it, Grandmother."

Hearing no other voice on the other end of the line, Old Madam Li was angry. Did he really treat her as his subordinate and ignore her after completing his mission? She said angrily, "Li Ruixu, you brat. I'm your grandmother, not your subordinate. It's fine if you don't come and see me after you wake up, but you're actually unwilling to even say a few words. Are you trying to rebel?"

When Li Ruixu heard this, he silently closed his computer and said, "Grandmother, calm down. When I'm done here, I'll definitely go home and accompany you for a while."
