CHAPTER 193: CHAPTER 193: BE A LITTLE LOW-KEY
He looked at Jiang Xue earnestly and said, "Xue’er, we must not do anything illegal, that’s something that will land you in jail."
"Dad, Mom, don’t worry, I won’t do such things. As for why my writing is worth so much, it’s hard to explain to you now. If there’s a chance, I’ll take you to meet someone, he will tell you whether my writing is really worth that much."
Father Jiang carefully observed Jiang Xue’s expression, seeing that she didn’t seem to be lying, he finally relaxed and said, "As long as the source of your money is legitimate, we have nothing to say. But now that you have money, you should keep a low profile. Otherwise, if others get envious, troubles will follow."
"Dad, I understand." Jiang Xue nodded. She was never someone who liked showing off. Rather than letting everyone know about every little thing, she preferred to enjoy life in a low-key manner.
"Go on, go back and rest. There’s nothing much here, you haven’t been home for days, go see the kids tomorrow. While you’re at it, discuss buying a house with your in-laws."
"Alright, I’ll listen to Dad." Jiang Xue nodded, then left the hospital.
After Jiang Xue left, Mrs. Jiang looked at Father Jiang, once again a look of worry crossed her face, she opened her mouth wanting to say something, but thinking of her husband who just had surgery, she swallowed her words.
Oh well, whatever comes will come, even if you try to hide, you may not be able to. It’s better to let things take their course.
Father Jiang had no mood to talk either, he remained silent, lost in his own thoughts.
The next day, after Jiang Xue got up, she first went to the hospital, then took a car back to Huanglong Village. At this time, Jiang Xue had no idea that Cheng Li had already found someone and was preparing to intercept her on the road.
Speaking of Cheng Li, she was really going all out to deal with Jiang Xue. After being beaten by Jiang Xue that day, she spent a day recuperating at home before going out to find someone.
Even with her face still bruised, she didn’t care, only thinking of getting revenge on Jiang Xue, just to vent her anger.
So, she specially went to the town and found the head thug - Brother Hu. Brother Hu’s real name is Liu Dahu, he’s a bully in the town. He usually doesn’t have a job and lives by collecting protection fees.
He has about ten underlings, who are also idle all day long.
Cheng Li sought Brother Hu because he once had designs on Jiang Xue. However, he did not succeed and was warned off by Mu Qiancheng.
It’s said that he was beaten up, so he didn’t dare to target Jiang Xue anymore. Therefore, to get Brother Hu’s help, she had to pay some sort of price.
Cheng Li had roughly anticipated what price she would have to pay, but to deal with Jiang Xue, she couldn’t care less.
Now, her mind was completely consumed by hatred, she was reckless and unconcerned about the consequences.
Cheng Li went to the town and headed straight to Brother Hu’s house. Brother Hu’s house is located not far from the town, it’s a courtyard with four sides.
The courtyard looked somewhat shabby, but compared to houses in the countryside, it was much better.
When Cheng Li found Brother Hu, he was playing mahjong and was in the middle of losing money. As soon as he heard someone was looking for him, he immediately shouted, "Tell her to get lost, I’m busy right now."
The underling went out to deliver the message to Cheng Li, telling her Brother Hu was busy. However, Cheng Li didn’t leave, since she was determined today, she wouldn’t leave without seeing Brother Hu.
