Chapter 237: Chapter 237: Two Women Conspire
Seeing the car stop in front of her, Jiang Xue was filled with joy and shouted, "Mr. Chen!"
"Snow, what do you have there, a gift for me?" Mr. Chen rolled down the car window, smiling at Jiang Xue.
Although he had already guessed what Jiang Xue was holding, he still wanted to confirm it.
"Yes, Mr. Chen, this is a thank-you gift I prepared. I don’t have anything good to give you, but my own handwriting is still presentable, so I specially wrote something for you."
"Wonderful, I shall accept your thank-you gift." Mr. Chen took what Jiang Xue was holding and smiled. He was correct; Jiang Xue was giving him her calligraphy.
Jiang Xue also smiled at Mr. Chen’s words. She was very pleased to have given the gift.
Mr. Chen was also very happy after receiving Jiang Xue’s gift and asked her, "Snow, where do you live? Would you like me to take you back?"
"Mr. Chen, I live in Cuihu New Language, not too far from here, so I won’t delay your time. If you have some time, you’re welcome to visit my home."
"Alright, when I’m free, I’ll definitely come by." Mr. Chen laughed, then said goodbye to Jiang Xue and left. He was already somewhat eager to see the gift Jiang Xue had given him, to see what words were written.
However, it was inconvenient to do so while sitting in the car, so he didn’t take it out. He just planned to go back quickly and have a good look at it.
Watching Mr. Chen leave, Jiang Xue then boarded the bus again, heading towards the hotel where Mr. Mu was staying.
Jiang Xue didn’t get off directly at the hotel’s entrance but at the stop before it, though the place wasn’t too far.
After getting off, seeing there weren’t many people around, she found a corner to bring out Little Reunion, and then headed to the Silver Lake Hotel.
When she arrived at the hotel, she was told Mr. Mu had already gone out. So, Jiang Xue left a message at the front desk and then went home.
Meanwhile, what Jiang Xue didn’t know was that, at a courtyard in Xu City, two women were conspiring, plotting to ruin her completely, leaving her with nothing.
And these two people were none other than Jiang Mingzhu and Cheng Li.
Yesterday, Cheng Li had waited a long time at Jiang Mingzhu’s place, until it was past midnight, for Jiang Mingzhu to return.
As it was very late when she returned, Jiang Mingzhu didn’t have the chance to find Cheng Li and went straight to bed. She slept until around eleven the next morning.
Cheng Li had been waiting, from the previous evening until the next morning, and from the morning until noon. So, when Jiang Mingzhu got up, she went directly to her.
Seeing Cheng Li, Jiang Mingzhu remembered some things from the previous day and invited her into the living room, where the two began to plan.
Previously, she didn’t know where Jiang Xue was living, so she couldn’t make a move. But now, knowing this, it was much easier to target her.
Although Jiang Mingzhu hadn’t been in Xu City for long, it was much longer than Jiang Xue. Moreover, her reasons for being here were work-related, and being the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family in South City, there were many eager to support or work for her.
For this reason alone, she acted without scruples. One could say that in Xu City, there was nothing she couldn’t achieve if she wanted.
Moreover, getting things done in Xu City was actually more convenient than in South City. This was also the precise reason she had intentionally moved here after discovering that Jiang Xue might be in Xu City.
