Chapter 58: Washing the Dishes Again

"You haven't gone to see Jing Zhan since you got back from abroad."

"I know you apparently dislike him for being so ill, but deep down, you still feel bad for him."

"But I didn't expect you to be so stupid."

"Now you should understand who your real enemy is in our family."

"This is the lesson Jing Zhan learned after walking through the gates of hell. You should remember it well."

Instead of punishing Leng Wanqing, Leng Chuanjin simply explained the stakes to her in a few words.

"Brother, I was wrong. I'll definitely be able to tell right from wrong in the future."

After Leng Wanqing sincerely apologized and Leng Chuanjin achieved his goal, he softened his tone.

"The person you should apologize to is not me, but Jing Zhan."

"I'm your elder brother, but in the end, you and Jing Zhan should be the closest to each other."

"Find some time to apologize to Jing Zhan."

"If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to hurt Jing Zhan like this."

After saying that, Leng Chuanjin turned around and left, heading towards the study.

Leng Wanqing, with red - rimmed eyes, glared at Xia Sanghuan, who was watching the show, in a fierce but ineffective way.

"What are you looking at? Even if there are conflicts between my brother and me, it can't change the fact that we are siblings!"

Xia Sanghuan looked at Leng Wanqing, who had red - rimmed eyes but pretended to be fierce, and said coldly,

"Jing Zhan might prefer sweet soup with a stronger flavor now. If you want to visit him, you can give it a try."

Leng Wanqing, who was prickly on the outside but awkward and soft on the inside, looked at Xia Sanghuan awkwardly.

"Th - thank you."

"You're welcome. It's just a small thing."

Indeed, Xia Sanghuan just had a better impression of Jing Zhan and was worried that the things Leng Wanqing brought might not be to Jing Zhan's liking, but he wouldn't dare to say so.

After a brief conversation, Leng Wanqing left with a lot of things to visit Jing Zhan in the hospital.

Xia Sanghuan, on the other hand, returned to her bedroom and recalled the details of Jing Zhan's illness attack today. She recorded his condition in a thick notebook.

"This rag is so dirty! Since Leng Wanqing isn't washing the dishes at home today, are you all just trying to torture me?"

When Xia Sanghuan finally looked up from her thick medical notebook, it was already late at night, and she had missed the normal dinner time.

As soon as she went downstairs, she heard Xia Anying's scream.

"Miss Xia, this is the same rag you used yesterday. We didn't touch it at all. Don't worry, it's still your favorite original - flavored rag."

Although the maid said so, Xia Sanghuan could hear a hint of disdain and sarcasm in her words.

It seemed that Xia Anying's status in the Leng family was indeed quite low.

"What? Miss Xia doesn't want to admit it?"

"It's a pity that this was personally ordered by Young Master Leng. Miss Xia must complete it."

The maid's reply earned her a very loud and clear slap.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like this?"

"Leng Wanqing can take a break today. Why can't I?"

"Fine, I finally understand. It's because Leng Wanqing has the surname Leng and I have the surname Xia, so I'm not allowed to take a break, right?"

Xia Anying, still indignant, wanted to step forward and give the maid another slap, but was stopped by Xia Sanghuan from behind.

"Xia Anying, this is the Leng family. These are all the maids hired by the Leng family. Even if you want to scold or beat them, you should ask the Leng family first."

"Moreover, washing the dishes is your job. If Leng Wanqing isn't with you, you can't do it?"

Xia Sanghuan's cold and consecutive questions filled Xia Anying's heart with a bit of uneasiness.

But Xia Anying quickly regained her haughty look.

"Of course. If Leng Wanqing doesn't accompany me, I won't wash the dishes. Whoever wants to wash them can do it."

"Since you're so stubborn, I won't stop you anymore. You can figure it out yourself."

Xia Sanghuan, who had been busy in the hospital for most of the day, was really tired and didn't want to entangle with Xia Anying.

But Xia Anying didn't want to let Xia Sanghuan go so easily.

"Do I have to figure it out just because you said so? Who do you think you are? People who don't know might think you're my elder sister!"

"Here, wash the dishes for me today."

Just like in the countryside, Xia Anying ordered Xia Sanghuan around and casually threw the dirty rag she disliked into Xia Sanghuan's arms.

"Can't you understand what I'm saying? I mean, you should clean up your own dishes!"

After saying that, Xia Sanghuan threw the rag back into Xia Anying's arms and then turned to the refrigerator to find something to eat.

But at this moment, Xia Anying behind Xia Sanghuan was secretly unhappy. Looking at Xia Sanghuan's back, she directly reached out and pushed Xia Sanghuan hard towards the refrigerator.

Even though Xia Sanghuan reacted quickly, because she was quite close to the refrigerator and Xia Anying pushed with all her might, Xia Sanghuan's forehead directly hit the corner of the refrigerator.

"Oops, sister, why are you so careless when walking?"

"The kitchen isn't very spacious. It's inevitable to have some bumps. You should be more careful."

Xia Anying watched as a bump quickly formed on Xia Sanghuan's forehead. She couldn't be happier and just sneered there.

Xia Sanghuan reached out and touched it, making sure that the bump on her head was simply caused by an external impact.

Then, looking at Xia Anying's smug look, how could Xia Sanghuan swallow this anger?

"Slap - "

In an instant, another loud and clear sound echoed in the kitchen.

Xia Anying, who was slapped, covered her swollen cheek and her eyes quickly turned red.

"Xia Sanghuan! How dare you treat me like this! Do you believe that I'll kill you right now!"

Xia Anying roared at Xia Sanghuan in a fit of anger, but to Xia Sanghuan, Xia Anying was no longer a threat.

"So what if I treat you like this? You were the one who meddled in other people's lives first."

"Of course, if you want to kill me now, I can't stop you."

"It's just that we'll see if you really have the ability."

After saying that, Xia Sanghuan turned around and left with the instant food she took out from the refrigerator.

The bump on her forehead from hitting the corner of the refrigerator really needed some medicine. Otherwise, she would definitely teach Xia Anying a lesson.

"Damn it, what are you so proud of? One day, all the things you're proud of and use as your capital will surely become mine!"

Xia Anying angrily took out the rag in her arms and threw it into the sink.

But in the end, she had no choice but to start washing the dishes slowly under the guidance of the maid, although her actions were full of uncontrollable irritability.
