Chapter 142: The Xia Family’s Young Lady
did not contract the zombie virus, and her symptoms were the same as Ling Hanmu’s.
However, her strength was only slightly better than that of an ordinary person, far inferior to Ling Hanmu’s!
Just then, the person’s eyes suddenly widened, and then blood flowed from all seven orifices. It happened so fast that Xia Chenge couldn’t even save his life before he gasped his last breath.
Xia Chenge: “…”
“He’s dead?” Ning Xia frowned, reaching out to feel his neck. “This person is very strange.”
A faint light flashed in Ling Hanmu’s eyes, disappearing as quickly as it appeared.
“Find someone to clean up. If such accidents continue to happen, it will easily cause public panic,” Xia Chenge said calmly, showing no emotion.
Ling Hanmu immediately made a phone call, and soon someone came to handle the scene.
After leaving, the three of them lost the mood for dessert.
After Ling Hanmu sent Xia Chenge back to the Xia family, he and Ning Xia returned to the Ling family.
Xia Chenge stood in the courtyard, looking at the blooming flowers and vibrant life, and remembered the apocalypse.
Coming to this era was definitely not a coincidence. She didn’t know what she had forgotten!
“Little Miss, why are you standing here and not going back to your room?” Footsteps and voices from behind interrupted Xia Chenge’s thoughts.
Xia Chenge turned her head and saw Yan Yue approaching with a joyful expression, saying excitedly, “Little Miss, hurry back! The Old Master and Old Madam can feel their legs again! This is a momentous occasion. We tried calling you earlier, but no one answered. The Old Master and Old Madam are eager to tell you.”
Although she had expected this, Xia Chenge still looked surprised. “Really? I’ll go back right away!”
“The doctor said that as long as they can feel their legs, there is hope for them to stand up! Our Old Master and Old Madam will no longer have to lie in bed.” Yan Yue was genuinely happy.
“Granny Wei, you’ve worked hard during this time. If Xu Jingyi and the others hadn’t driven you out back then, Grandfather and Grandmother wouldn’t have suffered for so many years!” To avoid anyone discovering that she was the one who cured them, she attributed the merit to Yan Yue.
“No, no, Little Miss, it’s all because of you that the Old Master and Madam have recovered. You taught me that massage technique, so I dare not take credit.”
“If it weren’t for your meticulous care, how could they have recovered so quickly?”
“Little Miss, please don’t be modest. I see everything. You are the lucky star of the Xia family. With you, the Xia family will only get better.”
Xia Chenge paused and turned to Yan Yue, saying, “Granny Wei, I say it’s you, so it’s you. You absolutely must not reveal me to others.”
Yan Yue was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood. “Yes, Little Miss.”
“From now on, none of us will ever be trampled underfoot again, never!” Xia Chenge said, as if making a promise to Yan Yue, or perhaps talking to herself.
Yan Yue’s eyes welled up with tears. Before, who would have thought that the bullied young lady of the Xia family would become so formidable?
The Xia family, which was on the verge of collapse, was single-handedly saved by her, and slowly regained its vitality.
Xia Chenge entered the Old Master’s room. The Old Master and Old Madam were beaming with joy.
“Xiao Ge, you’re back just in time. My legs have feeling again.” As soon as the Old Master saw Xia Chenge, he said excitedly, “After so many years, I had almost forgotten what pain felt like. Today, I finally experienced it again.”
“Me too. The doctor said there’s a high possibility we’ll be able to stand up,” the Old Madam said, equally excited.
Xia Chenge stepped forward and held their hands. “Yes, Xiao Ge is waiting for you to stand up and protect Xiao Ge.”
As soon as she said this, both elders’ eyes turned red. “Xiao Ge, my poor child, you’ve worked so hard all these years.”
“As long as Grandfather and Grandmother can stand up and regain their health, nothing Xiao Ge does will be hard.”
“Good child.”
Yan Yue, watching from the side, couldn’t stop wiping away tears.
As Xia Chenge held their hands, she secretly examined their bodies. Her healing power had already begun to take effect, repairing their bodies.
After they fully recover, as long as they maintain a cheerful mood, living another twenty to thirty years will be entirely possible.
Xia Chenge finally breathed a sigh of relief. The original owner had given her her body, and she would do her best to repay her kindness in the best way possible.
Xia Chenge, are you at peace in heaven? Xia Chenge’s gaze fell outside the window, looking at an unknown spot in the sky.
After coming out of the elders’ room, Wei En found Xia Chenge and asked for her opinion. “Little Miss, now that the Old Master and Old Madam’s condition is improving, should we release this news? The Old Master hasn’t been to the company in a long time…”
“No, when Grandfather can stand up, we’ll have a grand banquet and announce it to the whole world,” a calculating glint flashed in Xia Chenge’s eyes.
She hadn’t caused trouble at Sheng Xia Group yet, so it wouldn’t be fun to release the news so early!
“But, the doctor…” Wei En hesitated.
“That doctor was found by Young Master Ling, don’t worry,” Xia Chenge reassured him.
Wei En’s heavy heart was lifted, and he became even more satisfied with Ling Hanmu.
With such a young man who never forgot to protect the Little Miss, the Little Miss would surely be happy!
Xia Chenge didn’t know what Wei En was thinking. She went upstairs to her room to wash off the smell of blood.
Soaking in a comfortable hot bath, Xia Chenge closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She dreamed that she was standing on a vast cliff, and not far away stood a girl who looked exactly like her.
However, the innocence in that girl’s eyes was not something she possessed.
“Come here, it’s dangerous over there!” she shouted.
The girl shook her head, her smile tragically beautiful.
“Who are you?” she asked.
The girl pointed to herself, then to her. “I am you, thank you!”
“Young Lady of the Xia family?” she suddenly understood.
The girl shook her head. “No, you are the Young Lady of the Xia family!”
“I am useless, cowardly, and I escape from everything. I know why my parents died, and I know why my grandparents became like this, but I dare not face it. Xu Jingyi is a devil. I live in hatred every day, yet I am powerless to kill my enemy.”
“Only when I was choked to death did I realize that my parents were long gone, and I hated myself for being cowardly and not avenging them, not bringing them to justice.”
“Why did I get reborn into your body?” she interrupted the girl.
“You are my other personality. You only appeared once, when you saved the Young Master of the Ling family. How could someone as cowardly as me save a four-year-old boy at the age of three? Don’t mind it, saving Ling Hanmu was you yourself,” the girl said calmly.
“What? Another personality?” she was shocked.
“I knew of your existence as soon as I was sensible, but you seemed to have been in a deep sleep. I tried to wake you up many times, but failed. However, I am very happy that I died and you became the main personality and successfully took revenge,” the girl said.
Xia Chenge suddenly woke up with a start, opening her eyes to find herself still soaking in the bathtub.
However, the voice of the Young Lady of the Xia family still echoed in her ears: “You told me you came from the apocalypse…”
