CHAPTER 317


After Li Jing and Yin Lifen finished from the camera room, they went back to her office and by now most of the staffs had closed.


She was still surprised to see that her a.s.sistant was still there waiting for her. A soft scoff escaped her lips as she looked at the wolf in sheep clothing.


"Good afternoon ma. Welcome," Deng Meili greeted the moment she laid eyes on them.


"Hmm." That was the only reply she got and they walked in, ignoring her, leaving her to her own thoughts.


"I felt like really going to confront her with all the evidences we have against her," Yin Lifen confessed.


"I understand your concern, Fen Fen but let her be. For now, I would call my auntie. Please seat and help yourself to anything that you want."


"Alright, thanks. You want anything I should get it for you?"


"Nah, I am good." Li Jing flashed her friend a breathtaking smile before sitting down.


While Yin Lifen made herself comfortable, Li Jing picked up her phone and dialed her grand auntie"s phone number.


At first she was confused as to who to call. She didn"t know if she was to call Lin Qi or Lin Xuilan.


This controversy was so because she knew for a fact that it Lin Qi that was controlling Deng Meili and using her as the p.a.w.n she needed to be used as.


On the other hand, it was actually Lin Xuilan who made the fight more prominent by sending her naughty grandchild to steal the files.


She pondered a little bit on it before calling Lin Xiulan.


Ring! Ring!


"h.e.l.lo." As Li Jing heard her auntie"s voice, her smile broadened and she replied her.


"h.e.l.lo, grand auntie."


"Who am I speaking with?" She was a bit skeptical especially when she heard the word grand auntie but decided to find out any way and not take a wild guess.


"It is I, Li Jing."


Lin Xuilan"s eyes widened when she got the confirmation.


"Li Jing?"


"Yes auntie. It is I. Forgive me for nit calling you much earlier. I was told you were sick."


"Sick?"


"Yes, your grandson, Lin Jingyi stated clearly that you were rushed to the hospital. Please tell me the name of the hospital let me come and pay a visit. I bought gifts."


Hearing this, Lin Xuilan"s face turned ashen with shock. Her son had not told her anything about being sick first and foremost. Another thing was that Li Jing now wanted to visit her in the hospital.


What was she going to say?


She quickly racked her brain for an excuse to come up with to prevent Li Jing from coming.


"Umm…"


"Auntie," Li Jing called out her name with a little commanding tone. "Talk to me auntie, tell me where it is, which hospital is that?"


"Umm, wait. Yes I am sick. Coooh…" She pretended to cough and then cleared her throat. "But you see I am getting better. The doctor fixed some drips for me at home as I did not like the smell of hospitals."


"Oh my, thank G.o.d then."


"Yes my dear. So no need for you to worry," Lin Xiulan lied.


"Ah, how can I a filial niece do that to my grand auntie. Howe can I not come and pay you a visit and get you somethings? It would be a get well present. Just do not be too modest and send me the location. I would be there in a jiffy."


"Haha haha, no Li Jing. No need to concern yourself with these things. I am getting better. In fact that doctor has already discharged me and I am at home now. You needn"t worry."


"But I insist. It is the first time that grand auntie got sick in Li Jing"s presence. I would want to leave a good image and thoughts in grand auntie"s mind. I do not hope you get sick again, so let me show some care now."


"No need, some other time, okay?"


"Oh my, is grand auntie praying to be ill again?"


"No, that is not what I meant. I…"


"Yeah, I understand. Then I would come and pay you a visit at home then. I am almost at home, I would love your filial grandson to welcome me."


"Li Jing."


"No need to refuse me, I want to see you. If not how can I report back to granddad and tell him I knew of auntie"s sickness and yet I did not pay her a visit. In fact he has told me not to come home till I see you and give him feedback on your health."


"What?"


"Yes, that is the truth. So I wish that grand auntie would not stop Li Jing from coming to see her. After all we are all family, aren"t we?"


"I…"


"I am glad you agree. That would be all. Expect me in less than five minutes." Hearing her grandniece say that, Lin Xuilan gave up hope. She was thinking she could play Li Jing but no.


Rather it seems that Li Jing was adamant and now she had even informed her brother-in-law. She knew she was in soup if her brother found out she was lying.


Left with no choice, she decided to open up and speak the truth.


"Ah, do not worry, in fact I finished my drips, so I am all good."


"It seems that grand auntie still isn"t feeling alright," Li Jing insinuated.


"What do you mean like that?"


"Do not get me wrong, I am not insulting grand auntie but the way things are, it seems that grand auntie doesn"t even know what she is saying again. Wait for me, I would soon be there to take you back to the hospital for a proper checkup.


"No!"


Why is aunty preventing me from coming? Is it that there is something she is hiding?" Li Jing asked innocently.


"Fine, Li Jing. I know you know. I am not sick so let us stop playing games."


"Really? Wow!"
