"If, just if..."
"There are no ifs!" Doctor Jiang impatiently interrupted Zheng Lingling’s words, "Lingling! Do you think you’ll be safe if you don’t do this? Have you forgotten what you’ve done before? If Ni Yang finds out about those things, wouldn’t even one of them be enough to put you behind bars?"
Zheng Lingling was stunned again.
Doctor Jiang sighed deeply, speaking earnestly, "Lingling, it hasn’t been easy for us to get to this point. I don’t want you to give up the glory and wealth before your eyes so easily, letting it fall into someone else’s hands."
The hardships of over thirty years of wind and rain, only those who’ve experienced it could truly understand.
Sun Wu quickly said, "Even for Xianjing’s sake, we have to fight. Xianjing is used to living as a wealthy lady, going from luxury to frugality is hard. If she loses the Zheng Family, how will she live in the future?"
"Are you willing to let Ni Yang take away everything that belongs to Xianjing?"
Unwilling!
How could Zheng Lingling be willing to let Ni Yang take away what belonged to Zheng Xianjing?
"Aunt Jiang." Zheng Lingling looked up at Doctor Jiang, "I’ll listen to you."
Doctor Jiang nodded in satisfaction, "I’m old, wealth and power are fleeting to me. I’m doing all this for your family of three, Lingling. While we still have a hold over Zheng Suyu’s Achilles heel, you must seize this opportunity."
"Understood, I appreciate all your hard work." Zheng Lingling nodded. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Meanwhile.
Ni Yang had been asleep for over two hours, and by the time she woke up, it had already grown dark outside the window.
After sleeping, Ni Yang felt much better.
She washed her face in the restroom and changed into clean clothes. As Ni Yang was about to head downstairs, there was a knock at the door.
"Yangyang." It was Ni Cuihua’s voice.
Ni Yang went to open the door, "Mom, when did you come back?"
Ni Cuihua was holding a tray with slices of bread and milk, "I’ve been home for a while. Dinner won’t be for a bit, have some bread to tide you over."
Ni Yang picked up the bread and milk, then asked, "Did you visit Grandma?"
"I did," Ni Cuihua nodded, "Grandma doesn’t seem to be doing very well."
Ni Yang frowned subtly, "Is Zheng Lingling home?"
"You child, how can you call her by name like that?" Ni Cuihua continued, "It would sound so bad if others heard it."
