Chapter 66 - This is Different To What I Imagined
In the hotel, Ling Yuqing and Qu Wan were celebrating with their wine, thinking that Ling Tianya would once again lose her reputation, they could barely suppress their glee.
“Mom, I can’t wait to see Ling Tianya in shambles again!” Ling Yuqing downed the red wine in her glass, her eyes sparkling with glee.
Comparing to Ling Yuqing, Qu Was was a lot calmer. She sipped at her red wine, her eyes widening slightly. “Control yourself, don’t forget that this has nothing to do with you, and that you know nothing. Even if anything unfortunate happened to Ling Tianya, as her sister, you should be heartbroken for her. Look at yourself right now, how do you look?”
Listening to her mom, Ling Yuqing immediately kept her face neutral, sticking out her tongue, “I did lose my composure for a moment …”
Her mom was right, she had to control her emotions, and not make any mistakes.
Qu Wan looked at the time, “Are you sure that the people you asked are reliable? Why is it that there’s no information from them yet?”
Ling Yuqing nodded confidently, “Don’t worry.”
Kang Shao was a second-generation heir that was a good friend to Ling Yuqing, and Kang Shao seemed to be interested in her as well. As long as it was something that Ling Yuqing had asked him to do, Kang Shao would complete it. The people that usually were with Kang Shao usually did listen to him as well.
Ling Yuqing was confident in her own charm, and therefore, she was sure that it would be completed.
As for Xin Xin, something had happened in her family recently and she required a lot of money. Therefore, Yuqing had provided it.
In Ling Yuqing’s understanding, money could make the world go.
It was just…
Ling Yuqing looked at the clock as well, it is a little weird that there was no news even at that time.
“Let me give a call to Kang Shao and ask.”
Qu Wan nodded, she knew the son of the Kang family as well, and knew the fact that he is interested in Ling Yuqing. From Qu Wan’s point of view though, Kang Shao was just a man with no future, a useless person just waiting for death. How could he be compatible with her daughter that she had taken all her energy to raise?
Even if Qu Wan would never let Kang Shao marry her daughter, there was no harm in using him in their plans. They could raise Ling Yuqing’s value that way as well.
“Huh?” Ling Yuqing frowned, “Why is Kang Shao not picking up my calls?”
This was something that had never happened before. Whenever Ling Yuqing called, Kang Shao has always picked up on the first ring.
Ling Yuqing called Xin Xin, and similarly, there was no one picking up.
“What happened? They’re both not picking up!” The lines between Ling Yuqing’s brows deepened.
Qu Wan looked at her, her heart murmuring in uneasiness, “Try calling Kang Shao again.”
“Okay.” Ling Yuqing called Kang Shao again, and the went through, but the person that had picked up was not Kang Shao, but the Kang family’s chauffeur, “I’m looking for Kang Shao!”
Ling Yuqing’s tone was obnoxious, how dare this man not pick up her call?
“The young master’s in surgery right now…” The chauffeur’s tone was nervous and shaky.
“What? Surgery?!” Ling Yuqing’s heart thumped, “What happened? Why does he have to have surgery?”
“I don’t know… The young master’s hands were chopped off, and he’s in the hospital now for surgery. Who knows if his hands can be reattached…” When the event happened, the chauffeur was waiting outside in the car. By the time someone had notified him, Kang Shao had already passed out from the blood loss. By the time Kang Shao was in the hospital, the doctors had informed them that the chances of both the hands being reattached successfully was low.
“How did this happened…” Ling Yuqing dazedly hung up, things seemed to have gone differently from what she had imagined.
