Chapter 123: At My Mercy
“Xiao Ge, Xiao Ge!” Old Master Xia urgently called her name, “Come here, quickly come!”
“Is it really Xiao Ge?” The Old Madam asked with a trembling voice, staring at her without blinking, as if Xia Chenge would disappear in the blink of an eye.
“It’s me!” Xia Chenge held the hands of both elders, letting them truly feel her presence, “Those are all rumors, I just had a cold and caught a fever, I’m fine now!”
“That’s great, that’s great!” The Old Madam’s tears couldn’t be stopped from falling, her emotions had swung so wildly, she could barely handle it.
“Grandmother, I said I would accompany you both well, and I will never go back on my word. From now on, unless you see my corpse, never believe anyone who says I’m dead,” Xia Chenge said softly.
“My good child…” The Old Madam cried like a child.
Old Master Xia’s eyes were filled with tears, and thinking of what had just happened, he still couldn’t help but tremble.
How afraid he was that Xia Chenge was truly no longer in this world…
Xia Chenge used the excuse of a cold to brush off the matter, and after comforting them well, she let them lie down with peace of mind. Only then did she storm downstairs to settle accounts with Xia Minglan.
Xia Minglan lay on the hall carpet, cursing Xia Chenge with the most vicious language like a shrew.
The servants of the Xia family hid far away, not daring to approach.
“Xia Chenge, you worthless slut, a whore who’s been ridden by a thousand men and slept with ten thousand, may you die a horrible death!”
“Bitch, do you really think the Ling family would fancy someone as promiscuous as you? Don’t dream, you’ll be kicked out by the Ling family sooner or later, and you’ll never be able to hold your head up again.”
“I wish you, a broken piece of trash, to be infertile and forever be a stepmother to others.”
…
Xia Chenge listened to the unbearable words, and walked slowly to her side, looking down at her from above, “Whether I can have children is not your concern, you should worry about how you’ll spend the rest of your life!”
“Bitch, I hope you get hit by a car and die!” Xia Minglan cursed her through gritted teeth.
Xia Chenge smiled faintly, “It’s a pity you’ll never see the day I get hit by a car and die, but I will see the moment you die a horrible death.”
“Xia Minglan, you are now the fish on the chopping board, at my mercy!”
“How do you think I will torment you?”
“Should I send you to prison first, or let you taste the feeling of losing everything?”
Xia Minglan was clearly frightened by Xia Chenge’s words, “What do you want?”
“I just want to avenge my parents and take back everything that belongs to me,” Xia Chenge let out a chilling smile that made one’s scalp tingle.
Hearing this, Xia Minglan was terrified by Xia Chenge’s words, instantly feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, the cold piercing her bones. She stammered incoherently, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Xia Chenge squatted down, “Don’t you know very well what I’m talking about?”
Xia Minglan instinctively retreated.
“You killed my parents back then, you didn’t expect this day, did you?” Xia Chenge said in a sinister tone that only the two of them could hear, “Indeed, after more than ten years, who would have thought someone would dig up old matters, wouldn’t they?”
“I, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Xia Chenge’s gaze was too sharp, making Xia Minglan completely afraid to look directly at her. An invisible fear surged like a tide, completely drowning her.
She was shivering all over. The death of Xia Mingxuan had always been her greatest fear. Although there was no evidence linking her to it back then, she had never dared to face it, or even mention it.
Because, she was guilty.
“You will know, and you will admit it. Do you know? I have waited for this day for a very, very long time, and finally, I have the chance to avenge my parents. Xia Minglan, you are truly too impatient!” Xia Chenge chuckled, with an indescribable mockery.
The hatred in her eyes pushed Xia Minglan to the brink of collapse, as if she were seeing Xia Mingxuan.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, you’re talking nonsense!” She desperately covered her ears, roaring hysterically.
Xia Chenge looked at her already crazed state and smiled.
Without Xu Jingyi, Xia Minglan was nothing more than a paper tiger, unable to withstand a single blow.
Only someone as withdrawn as the original owner could be so easily manipulated by her.
“Call the police!” Xia Chenge stood up, calmly turned, and said to a servant, “Say Xia Minglan committed burglary.”
Afterward, Xia Chenge slowly left the Xia family, waiting for the police to arrest Xia Minglan.
Xia Minglan had been jumping around for long enough. She had been thinking of provoking her into taking action to deal with her, but she didn’t expect this idiot Xia Minglan to deliver herself to her doorstep first.
As for after being taken away by the police, it wouldn’t be a simple charge of theft.
Everything that was imposed on the original owner, she would retrieve it all for her!
No one who offended her could get away unscathed.
After dealing with Xia Minglan, the next one would be Xu Jingyun.
Xia Chenge knew Xu Jingyun’s personality well. Falling from the clouds to the bottom, she would definitely not be reconciled and would constantly try to make a comeback with her clumsy attempts.
Furthermore, Xia Chenge knew that Xu Jingyun had already quietly left the Xu family, planning to deal with her personally.
What Xu Jingyun didn’t know was that Ling Hanmu’s people had already been watching her, and knew her whereabouts.
Night fell, twenty-three o’clock.
A meticulously dressed Xia Chenge appeared at the Victoria Bar.
Her stunning beauty immediately drew the attention of many people as soon as she appeared.
She walked to the bar as if no one else was there, sat on a high stool, and asked the bartender for a glass of juice.
The bartender stared at her blankly for a long time before snapping back to reality, not recognizing this heavily made-up Xia Chenge.
However, some young men approached with ill intentions, lewdly teasing her, “Hey girl, alone? What’s the fun in drinking juice? How about I treat you to a drink?”
Xia Chenge said coldly, “Scram!”
“What did you say?” The man cupped his ear, “Say it again!”
Xia Chenge picked up the juice and calmly splashed it on his face, “I told you to scram!”
“You stinking bitch, how dare you splash me?” The man became furious. He had been frequenting this bar for so long, and no one had ever dared to treat him like this. He immediately tried to grab Xia Chenge.
Slap!
Before he could make a move, his cheek was met with a stinging slap.
He glared at Xia Chenge, “You dare to hit me?”
Slap!
His other cheek was met with another slap.
“You little slut, I’ll make you wish you were dead!” The man roared, directly signaling his subordinates to attack Xia Chenge, “Grab this stinking bitch.”
“Stop, what are you doing?” Suddenly, someone shouted, stopping the man’s actions.
A tall, burly man with long hair walked over and roughly pushed the man aside, “Who told you to get handsy on my turf?”
“Brother Wu.” The man immediately became like a mouse seeing a cat, lowering his head fearfully.
“Making trouble on my turf, did you ask my fist?” Brother Wu clenched his fists, making a cracking sound, “Scram!”
The man acted as if he had received a great pardon, scrambling away from there.
“Little sister, are you alright?” Brother Wu turned around, his demeanor instantly becoming kind and amiable.
