Chapter 884: 219: Cunning Yangyang_6 Chapter 884: 219: Cunning Yangyang_6 âPeople die for money, birds die for food; your aunt feared the Zheng familyâs estate would all be taken by your mother. I understood this, so I prepared my will early, splitting the Zheng familyâs estate evenly between your aunt and your mom. Though your aunt is not my biological child, I have never treated her differently!â
Ni Yang looked up at Grandma Zheng, âGrandma, you are a good mother, but she might not be a good daughter.â
With that, Ni Yang continued, âI even suspect that Aunt Suyuâs hysteria might be related to them as well.â
Having said this much, Ni Yang didnât want to keep hiding things from Grandma Zheng.
Lest when the truth emerged, Grandma Zheng couldnât accept the reality.
âThat wonât be the case,â Grandma Zheng shook her head, âYangyang, youâre not a detective, you must be mistaken.â
âGrandma, how about we make a bet?â Ni Yang proposed.
âA bet on what?â Grandma Zheng asked.
âOn whether Doctor Jiang and Aunt Suyu are the masterminds behind this,â Ni Yang said every word very seriously.
Grandma Zheng smiled, âYangyang, youâre really overthinking. I can vouch for my integrity that Doctor Jiang and your aunt arenât those kinds of people.â
Ni Yang slightly curled her lips, âGrandma, the day when everything becomes clear hasnât come yet, itâs too early to say that now.â
Grandma Zheng looked at Ni Yang, âYangyang, do you know how many years Iâve known Doctor Jiang? Thirty-five years! Ever since she came back to Beijing across the Pacific Ocean with your aunt, I knew Doctor Jiang is a good person.â
âAnd your aunt, your aunt, I raised her myself. I know very well what kind of person she is; she could never do something so utterly heartless.â
For a full thirty-five years, Grandma Zheng couldnât believe that human nature could be so malicious.
Nor could she believe that she had two wolves in sheepâs clothing by her side.
With that, Grandma Zheng continued, âYangyang, as you said, Doctor Jiang is a doctor. If she wanted to do something, it would be so easy. If she and Lingling truly wanted to harm me, your grandfather and I wouldnât be alive today.â
Ni Yang knew that no amount of talking would be useful at this time. Only when ironclad evidence was presented would Grandma Zheng believe it.
âGrandma, itâs getting late, you should rest early,â Ni Yang said, âI didnât mean anything else by telling you this, just wanted you to be cautious around Doctor Jiang and Aunt Suyu. And also my Auntâs husband, who seems straightforward and honest, yet he has an unknown side to him that people donât see.â
Otherwise, Sun Wu wouldnât have had such a good marital relationship with Zheng Lingling after so many years.
âAlright, alright, Iâve got it,â Grandma Zheng nodded, âYangyang, Iâll take your words to heart.â
Despite her precautions, Grandma Zheng still couldnât believe that Zheng Lingling and Doctor Jiang were capable of such deeds.
âThen Iâm going to rest now.â
âUh-huh,â Grandma Zheng escorted Ni Yang to the door.
In the deep silence of the night, barely perceptible footsteps echoed through the hallway.
Then, a shadow darted into Aunt Suyuâs room.
âWhoâs there!â Hearing noise, Aunt Suyu turned on the bedside lamp and sat up in bed, looking around warily.
âAunt Suyu, itâs me,â Zheng Lingling approached from the side.
Seeing who it was, Aunt Suyu shrank back into her bed.
Zheng Lingling curled her lips upwards, âIt seems Aunt Jiang was right, you remembered.â
âNo, I havenât,â Aunt Suyu shook her head.
Zheng Lingling placed the glass bottle on the bedside table, âIf you want that child to be safe, youâll just have to obey.â
âLet her go,â Aunt Suyu looked up at Zheng Lingling, âYouâll suffer divine retribution for doing this!â
Zheng Lingling said with a smile, âIt seems youâre unwilling to cooperate?â
Zheng Suyu suddenly fell silent.
Zheng Lingling continued, âDivide this into three doses and make Ni Yang drink it.â
âYou still want to harm Yangyang?â Zheng Suyu looked incredulously at Zheng Lingling.
Zheng Lingling said, âAunt Suyu, rest assured, this is not poison. Ni Yang will not be in mortal danger. If youâre unwilling to cooperate, that poor child might not survive.â
âPlease, donât do this, canât you not do this?â Zheng Suyu knelt on the bed, constantly kowtowing to Zheng Lingling, âLet her go! That child is too pitiful! Iâm begging you!â
The doctor was right.
What did being a talented woman of Beijing count for?
She still ended up kneeling, fiercely trampled underfoot.
Ni Yangâs future would only be more miserable than Zheng Suyuâs!
Zheng Lingling stepped back and said, âAunt Suyu, you were once known as a talented woman in Beijing, I really canât accept such a grand gesture from you.â
With that, Zheng Lingling picked up the glass bottle from the table. âSince youâre unwilling to cooperate, I wonât force you. After all, a twisted melon is not sweet!â
After speaking, Zheng Lingling turned and walked towards the door.
She was gambling.
Gambling on whether Zheng Suyu would let the child go.
âWait!â Zheng Suyu suddenly ran down from the bed and grabbed Zheng Linglingâs sleeve.
Zheng Lingling turned to look at Zheng Suyu. âAunt Suyu, do you have something else to say?â
âI agree!â Zheng Suyu stammered, âI agree! Iâll agree to anythingâŠâ
Zheng Lingling bent down to help Zheng Suyu up. âAunt Suyu, a wise man submits to circumstances. You should have agreed earlier. Donât worry, the child is living well now, no one will trouble her.â
Having dealt with Zheng Suyu, Zheng Lingling felt very refreshed, even still smiling as she left Zheng Suyuâs room.
When she reached the staircase, Zheng Lingling encountered Ni Yang.
âYangyang, what are you doing downstairs so late?â Zheng Lingling narrowed her eyes.
Knowing Ni Yang was not as simple as she seemed, Zheng Lingling now dared not underestimate her.
Ni Yangâs face was full of harmless smiles, highlighted by slight dimples, âI went downstairs to get some water; dinner was too salty tonight, Auntie, are you also going downstairs for water?â
Zheng Lingling nodded. âYes, Iâm also going downstairs for water. Itâs getting late, you should rest after you drink.â
Ni Yang turned and glanced at Zheng Linglingâs back, the curve of her lips becoming more pronounced.
It seemed, Zheng Lingling was not as smart as she thought.
But that doctor, who knew how many times craftier he was than Zheng Lingling!
Now the urgent task was to find that child quickly, thankfully Ni Yang and Xiaozhou from the Detective Agency were particularly familiar.
Otherwise, this matter could really be tricky.
As soon as Zheng Lingling returned to her room, Sun Wu asked impatiently, âHow did it go, Lingling, is everything settled?â
