Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 457: 130: Zheng Xianjing took the bait, making money to support our Mr. Mo’s family! _1

Zheng Xianjing was not a fool.

She could not just believe in the authenticity of this man’s words based on one phone call.

What if he was a scammer?

Thirty thousand yuan was not a small sum!

She was the honorable young lady of the Zheng family. If word got out that she had been scammed, what face would she have to show in her circle?

“Miss Zheng doesn’t believe me?”

“I don’t even know who you are, how do you expect me to believe you?” Zheng Xianjing retorted.

The man chuckled, “The chance to overthrow Li Xianxian only comes once, whether or not you can seize this opportunity is up to Miss Zheng.” He added, “My surname is Mo. If Miss Zheng trusts me, please send thirty thousand yuan to Chengyi Detective Agency within ten days.”

With that, he abruptly hung up the phone.

Zheng Xianjing looked at the disconnected call, looking confused, she quickly dialed back, only to find the line was busy.

“Xianjing, who was that on the phone?” Zheng Lingling came down from upstairs.

“Just a casual friend.” Zheng Xianjing calmly replied, scanning the surroundings then continued, “Mom…”

“Boo!” Just then, a figure suddenly jumped beside them, pulling a scary face.

The mother-daughter pair was significantly startled.

Especially Zheng Lingling, her face turned pale, and she reached out to hit Zheng Suyu. Catching sight of the old lady, Zheng, at the top of the stairs, her expression changed, she giggled, “Aunt Suyu, you’re alright? Xianjing and I didn’t scare you, did we?”

Zheng Suyu grinned foolishly, “Fun, so much fun.”

Zheng Xianjing took Zheng Suyu by the arm and said, “Aunt Grandma, let me take you back to rest.”

Zheng Xianjing, turned into a considerate niece, helping Zheng Suyu upstairs.

“Stars, such beautiful stars! Ah! Ghost! You are a ghost! You want to hurt me!” Zheng Suyu suddenly screamed and shoved Zheng Xianjing away, running towards the old lady Zheng’s room, “A ghost wants to hurt me! Aqing, help!”

“Aunt Grandma!” Impatience flashed in Zheng Xianjing’s eyes as she chased after her.

“Suyu.” Old Mrs. Zheng opened the door, reaching out to hold Zheng Suyu’s hand.

Zheng Suyu hid behind Old Lady Zheng, visibly trembling, her eyes filled with terror as she looked at Zheng Xianjing. A primal fear radiating from within her.

Strangely enough, ever since Zheng Suyu lost her sanity, she saw everyone as a ghost, except for Old Lady Zheng. She could even remember her name.

“Grandma.” Zheng Xianjing respectfully said.

Old Mrs. Zheng nodded, looking at Zheng Suyu, “Don’t be afraid Suyu, this is Xianjing, do you remember Xianjing? She is your great-niece.”

Zheng Suyu was on the verge of tears, her voice trembling as she said, “Ghost! She is a ghost!”

Old Mrs. Zheng sighed, holding in a severe cough, “Xianjing, your Aunt Grandma is like this, don’t take offense.”

Zheng Xianjing acted understanding, “Grandma, I know, we are all a family, how could I blame Aunt Grandma?”

“Cough, cough, cough.” Old Mrs. Zheng couldn’t hold back her coughing, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, coughing violently.

“Grandma, are you okay?” Zheng Xianjing started patting Old Mrs. Zheng’s back.

Zheng Suyu, frightened, retreated several steps, hiding under the table, warily looking at Zheng Xianjing.

Old Mrs. Zheng was coughing so hard her face turned pale. After a while, her coughing stopped, she continued, “It’s nothing, just an old ailment.”

After three years of coughing, Old Mrs. Zheng had become accustomed to it. However, her condition in recent times was far worse than in the previous two years.

She always felt her end was nearing.

But she kept telling herself to persist.

Her daughter was still missing.

Zheng Suyu hadn’t recovered, in this state, even in death, she wouldn’t be able to rest in peace.

“Madam, Doctor Jiang is here.” a servant entered with an elderly person.

Doctor Jiang was a woman in her fifties or sixties, an old friend of Old Mrs. Zheng. With her excellent medical skills and Old Mrs. Zheng’s trust in her, she had been serving as the personal doctor for Old Mrs. Zheng, helping her regulate her body over the years.

“Aunt Jiang.” Zheng Lingling immediately greeted her.

Doctor Jiang nodded, “Lingling, where’s the old lady?”

Zheng Lingling looked at Doctor Jiang, “My mom is upstairs, I’ll take you to her.”

“Ok.” Doctor Jiang nodded.
