Chapter 743: Chapter 744: Coming to Excite Her Chapter 743: Chapter 744: Coming to Excite Her The days now were bustling and thriving, her tea snacks selling well, and her confidence soared with each sale, instinctively straightening her back, presenting a renewed energy.
âAunt Tao seems younger by the day,â Liu Caiyun had just begun speaking as Chiang Xiao, who had just gone into the inner room to put down her bag, turned to look at her.
She noticed the dark undertone in Liu Caiyunâs eyes and instantly became more vigilant.
That old rumor from another province about Chiang Qingzhu had once devastated Ge Liutao so badly that she couldnât recover. In this life, that event had never transpired, and Ge Liutaoâs health had been restored with the help of Ganoderma water and Ginseng Water. However, returning to Siyang Village, she couldnât help but remember, always staying alert.
She approached, just as Liu Caiyun continued, âLately, Iâve been terribly worried. Our Desheng only got into a secondary vocational school, and he has to go far away to study. Just thinking about my son traveling afar unsettles me deeply. Unlike Uncle Songhai and Aunt Tao, who are so blessed. I heard Chiang Xiao is taking you to the county town?
âDesheng getting into the secondary vocational school is impressive as well. I heard after graduating, thereâs guaranteed job placement. He wonât have to worry about finding employment in the future.â
To hear Ge Liutao casually discussing topics like ultrasonography and job placements took Aunt Juan and the others by surprise. The old Ge Liutao was a woman of little exposure, whoâd always just nod or mumble in agreement to what others said. Now, she could actually engage Liu Caiyun on topics like job placements?
And she wasnât the least bit shy about it.
Liu Caiyun smiled and said, âThatâs true, Iâm not worried about that, itâs just Deshengâs safety abroad that Iâm concerned about. Oh, Aunt Tao, I heard some news a couple of days ago and thought you might be aware of it, but seeing how you all are still beaming with joy, it seems you donât know yet. Otherwise, if a daughter was involvedâŠâ
She hadnât finished her sentence when her wrist was gripped by Chiang Xiao.
A wave of numbness startled Liu Caiyun so much that she forgot what she was going to say next and looked up sharply at Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiaoâs gaze was icy and piercing, making her heart skip a beat.
âLiu Caiyun, if youâre concerned about Ji Deshengâs safety out there, you might consider sending him to learn martial arts. As for what kind, come on, letâs talk outside,â Chiang Xiao said.
She didnât let go of her grip on Liu Caiyunâs wrist and led her outside.
Liu Caiyun didnât want to go, but she was powerless to resist following because her entire arm to her shoulder felt numb and sore!
This sensation left her unable to think about what she had initially wanted to say, her other hand trying to pry Chiang Xiaoâs grip open.
âChiang Xiao, let⊠let goâŠâ
Why would Chiang Xiao let her continue speaking nonsense here?
She forcefully dragged Liu Caiyun out to a deserted wasteland.
Since she wore an expression of indifference, those who saw her were somewhat bewildered and didnât dare to approach and speak to her.
âChiang Xiao, let go of me!â
âLetâs finish talking first,â Chiang Xiao said and pulled her to a wasteland with a few banana plants, then suddenly released her hand, pushing her forcefully.
Liu Caiyun stumbled backward a few steps, her back crashing into a banana tree.
âChiang Xiao, have you gone mad? Youâre getting vicious!â
âLiu Caiyun, what were you about to say to my granny?â Chiang Xiao stood before her, her eyes cold.
If she wasnât mistaken, Liu Caiyun was just about to bring up Chiang Qingzhu in front of her grandmother.
