Chapter 929: Don’t You Know How to Appease Women

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Her voice was crystal clear and it seemed to suspend in the quiet ward.

Su Tang felt her jealousy rage like an inferno, and she wanted so much to rip this woman apart.

And yet, she could not.

Xia Ling’s bodyguard was eyeing her every move, there was no way she could do anything to her.

Even so, Xia Ling decided to antagonize her further. “Sigh, Su Tang, you think you can get together with Li Lei? All things aside, the fact that you hit the children is bad enough! There are only two Little Young Masters in the Li family, and not only did you almost beat Li Rui to death, you even laid your hands on Shaohui. Do you really think Li Lei wouldn’t think much of it?”

Su Tang’s expression turned awful. The other day, she simply could not control herself when she was hitting Shaohui. To be fair, she had wanted to get rid of that boy a long time ago. Since he chose to put himself on the line to protect Li Rui, how could she possibly let him off?! He should count himself lucky that she had not killed him that day!

Only when she calmed down did she realize that hitting Shaohui was stepping on Li Lei’s bottom line. But given that there were so many stressors in her life recently, it was impossible to control her temper!

She looked at Xia Ling coldly. “You did it on purpose.”

Xia Ling was slightly stunned. “Did what on purpose?”

Su Tang glanced at the bodyguard before sneering. “You knew that I’ve been emotional lately, so you deliberately left Shaohui in the ward, tempting me to hit him so that Li Lei will detest me. You’re so scheming!”

Only then did Xia Ling understand what was going on—she was saying it for the bodyguard.

“Are you hoping that the bodyguard will relay your words to Li Lei?” Xia Ling smiled as well. “There’s no use. The fact that I take this bodyguard along with me means that I trust him enough. Su Tang, I’m not like you. After serving for your whole life, you can’t even find one person whom you can trust to be loyal. I have more than enough people who’re loyal to me, if I wished to activate them, I wouldn’t even need any of Li Lei’s men!”

She was the Phoenix of the Xia family. She had every right to be this arrogant.

As for Su Tang? She was just a pitiful woman who was adopted as a child, and who had served others her whole life!

Her words were practically venomous as it stung Su Tang mercilessly, edging her towards insanity. Su Tang took deep breaths as she tried to suppress the anger rising inside her. She told herself that there was no point in fighting it out with this woman, as she stared at Xia Ling in the eye. “You won’t come to a good end.”

Her glare was menacing.

Xia Ling could not explain why, but Su Tang’s words made her uncomfortable, almost as if it was a curse from hell. She did not like Su Tang, not at all. And yet, she did not have it written on her face. She raised her chin slightly to appear high and mighty as she said to Su Tang, “What? Before I come to a bad end, you’ll meet yours first—over the next few days, someone will send a lawyer’s letter to you, to charge you for abusing children, and you will lose your custody over Li Rui. From now on, Li Rui will be living with us, and I will raise him like he is my own... He will have enough time to forget his evil biological mother.” Taking over her rival’s child as her own and seeing her clench her teeth in anger in helplessness... it felt pretty great.

Xia Ling was more than satisfied with herself. She side-eyed Su Tang provocatively before taking her leave.

She left Su Tang alone in the ward, who then grabbed a flower vase and hurled it against the door.

Xia Ling returned to the hallway and was about to take the seat she was on when Li Lei left when she saw a man approaching. He was in a fitting t-shirt and had one hand in his pocket, while the other held up a bottle of honey lemon drink. His skin glowed healthily and he was simply alluring.

The man looked right at her, it was Li Lei.

Xia Ling stopped in her tracks.

Li Lei walked towards her and said, a little seriously, “Why are you here? I’ve been looking for you.”

She tried to downplay it. “I was a little bored, so I decided to take a walk around.”

“Take a walk around, and you found your way to Su Tang’s ward?” Li Lei did not intend to let her off so easily.

Xia Ling was at a loss for words. She glared at him with some annoyance. Why was he asking the obvious? “Yes, I tried to get you away so I could find trouble with Su Tang.” Since he was already having questions, she might as well give him the answers. “She hurt my son, of course I have to give her a piece of my mind! She should consider herself lucky that I didn’t hit give her a bashing!”

Li Lei frowned. “Xiao Ling...”

Xia Ling was extremely unhappy when she saw his expression. Was he still defending that woman at a time like this? “I know she’s your benefactor,” Xia Ling said. “Which is why I didn’t want to make things difficult for you. I took efforts to keep you away while I went to look for her myself. But can you not make things difficult for me too, by just pretending you didn’t see any of this?”

“I’ve already seen it, how can I pretend I haven’t?” Li Lei was having some trouble. Why was his wife so worrying? If she was a little smarter and did it more inconspicuously, he wouldn’t have needed to find out! But now that he did, how could he act otherwise?!

Li Lei looked at Xia Ling. “You’re expecting now, it’s dangerous to go and look for her like this. She has manic episodes every now and then and will hurt others, what if you get hurt?”

“I brought a bodyguard along with me, what could go wrong?” Xia Ling was fuming. “I think you’re more worried about me hurting her!”

“I... I...”

“Da Liu, let’s go!” She called out to her bodyguard and was about to turn and walk away from Li Lei.

Li Lei tried to stop her. “Xiao Ling, wait!”

But Xia Ling completely ignored him as she made her way back to her ward.

“Damned Li Lei, bad Li Lei...” She was hurling things as well in her own 100-odd square meter ward. “We’re already married, but he’s still thinking of that woman. Does he even care about me?! Hmph!”

She hurled a few more pillows towards the door, and one of them landed right on Little Shaohui’s face when he entered. “Mom!” Little Shaohui called out to her with a pout as he hugged the pillow.

Only then did Xia Ling stop. She pulled her son closer and checked if she had hurt him.

“Why are you here?” She asked.

Little Shaohui blinked his beautiful eyes and said meekly, “Dad came to look for me. He told me that he made you angry, and wanted me to check whether you were still mad.”

“And he isn’t here to appease me himself!” Xia Ling was upset again.

But, how would Li Lei dare to come look for her? She was now an expectant mother and her emotions were unpredictable. What if he antagonized her and ended up hurting her or the baby? All things considered, he decided that the least risky method was to get his son to help him check on his dear wife.
