Chapter 1181: Trickery (4)


The Ruan family rushed to the hospital once they got the call from the housekeeper.


The old lady was not in the hospital for long when the Ruan family arrived. She was just about to go into the emergency room for further tests.


The old lady could open her eyes, but she had lost her mental abilities and could not speak clearly at all. Even her movements were small.


“Sister! My sister!” Madam Ruan rushed over to check on the old lady.


It seemed the old lady saw Madam Ruan, and Ling Tianya, who was holding Madam Ruan’s arm. She murmured with her mouth, opening and closing as if she was trying to say something. However, she could not make a sound. The old lady tried to raise her head to take a look, but she had lost all her strength and could not even move a finger. At last, she lost consciousness and pa.s.sed out.


The doctor kept all family and friends outside the emergency room. Madam. Ruan was worried sick as she could not enter the room to be with her sister.


“What on earth happened! How could she fall down the stairs just like that!” Madam Ruan asked Huang Ying and Xu Cheng. Though Madam Ruan and the old lady had some grudges against each other and they did not see eye to eye all the time, she was still her sister. To Madam Ruan, she was the only close family member left in the world. Moreover, if it was not for Liao Cuicui, she might not have the life she had now. So, no matter what Liao Cuicui had done, she felt that she owed her.


Now, Madam Ruan was afraid that if the old lady pa.s.sed away, she would not get the chance to pay her debt.


Upon Madam Ruan’s questions, Xu Cheng turned as pale as a sheet of paper. She stood there, frozen, not knowing how she should answer.


Madam Ruan looked to the housekeeper and said, “You called me. You tell me!”


The housekeeper froze for a bit. To show she had nothing to do with this matter, the housekeeper said with dismay, “I don’t know a thing! I was busy in the kitchen. I seemed to hear someone arguing outside, but I did not take it seriously. Then I heard the voices getting louder and louder. When I came out of the kitchen, the old lady was already on the floor.”


“Why didn’t you do something when you heard the argument! What use are you if you don’t do your job?” Madam Ruan reprimanded loudly.


Hearing Madam Ruan, Huang Ying sneered secretly within. Of course the housekeeper was sent to her home to spy on them. There was no decent person in the Ruan family!


The housekeeper felt wronged and said, “All this time, Madam Xu was scolding her daughter-in-law. It didn’t matter if it was a small thing or a big thing. Sometimes it was for no reason. It was loud and harsh every single time. I tried to stop Madam Xu a few times in the beginning, but she scolded me as well. So I just let it happen from then on. So, I thought it was just Madam Xu scolding her daughter-in-law again, so I did not come out of the kitchen to have a look.”


The housekeeper was sent by Madam. Ruan; however, she was sent to keep an eye on Huang Ying. Madam. Ruan was worried that Huang Ying might want to seduce Ruan Qishan.


Madam Ruan looked to Huang Ying and asked in an ice-cold tone, “What’s going on?”


Huang Ying acted if she was the victim and gave the speech she prepared beforehand, “It’s just like the housekeeper said. Before she fell down the stairs, she was scolding me. All this time, she treated me as if I was a servant in the house, demanding me to do everything. I had not done some ch.o.r.es, so I was not good at them. Then she would scold me. This time, I was chatting with Xu Cheng in the room and was not doing any ch.o.r.es. She was mad and started to scold me as usual. Maybe she was too upset and did not pay attention to the stairs behind her. She missed a step and fell down. I had nothing to do with it!”


Huang Ying looked at Xu Cheng. Xu Cheng got the message and nodded. “Right, my mom had nothing to do with it. Grandma fell down the stairs herself. We were all shocked as well.”
