Jiang Zhi glanced at the woman on the other end. The girl had a ponytail and wore a dress that didn't fit in with the group. Her face was somewhat similar to hers, but her eyes were too timid.

When looking at her, Jiang Zhi didn't know why he thought of Xia Qianqian.

When I first met Xia Qianqian, she was like this too, looking at her timidly, which made people feel pity for her.

So, when Jiang Wanwan timidly called her sister, Jiang Zhi ignored her.

"Zhizhi, I heard you work in a design studio. Coincidentally, Wanwan is also studying fashion design. Can you bring Wanwan in? She's always had good grades and went to college..."

"No." Her tone was a little cold, and she interrupted her directly. She lowered her eyes and looked at the woman beside her, and said this.

Lin Xin became furious when he saw Jiang Zhi speaking in an old lady-like tone.

It was fine that the old woman spoke to her like that.

Who knew that this little kid would say the same thing.

She had just been upset with the old lady, so of course she took it all out on Jiang Zhi.

"Jiang Zhi, you're just a junior, how dare you talk to me like that? It's you who made him wrong me. If it weren't for him, wouldn't I be in such a miserable state? Look at me..." The woman screamed hysterically, "I should have had a brilliant and glorious life, but he ruined it all! It's all ruined!"

"If my dad really wanted to do something to you, why didn't you call the police?" She walked towards her step by step. Although Jiang Dahai was not her biological father, the dead was gone.

When Jiang Zhi came to the Jiang family, she kept hearing the maids talk about Jiang Zhi's parents.

Jiang Zhi's parents are in a free love relationship.

They love each other very much.

She believed that Jiang Dahai would not cheat in the eyes of others.

"That's because..." Lin Xin was speechless.

It obviously touched her heart.

"You wanted to break up my parents' marriage and take the opportunity to get the upper hand, but my father ignored you. You could only stay away from him, fearing that you would push him too far."

"Of course not!" Lin Xin retorted, "Jiang Zhi, stop talking nonsense here."

"You know whether I am talking nonsense or not." Jiang Zhi didn't want to continue arguing with her. The lights in the emergency room were as bright as day.

The old lady has been in there for almost two hours.

“Lin Xin, if anything happens to my grandma today, I won’t let you go.”

Jiang Wanwan grabbed Lin Xin's hand, frightened by her words, "Mom."

"Shut up." Lin Xin glared at his daughter and now stared at Jiang Zhi's face.

"Jiang Zhi, if you do anything to me, I will tell the media what your father did to me. The gossip media won't care whether you live or die. Then it won't be..."

Snapped!

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Zhi slapped him in the face.

Lin Xin was slapped and was furious. She was not someone who could take such a slap so easily. She glared at her angrily, "You dare to hit me..."

"I slapped her on behalf of my mother."

The woman's eyes were fixed on her face, taking in every inch of Lin Xin's expression.

She waved her hand and slapped Lin Xin on the cheek again.

"This slap is for my grandma."

After two consecutive slaps, bright red finger marks appeared on Lin Xin's face.

She pointed at Jiang Zhi's face and said, "You..."

Jiang Zhi hated being pointed at, so she reached out and pinched Lin Xin's fingers, applying a little more force.

"Ah, what do you want to do?"

"Since Miss Lin doesn't know how to respect others, I will teach you today."

Lin Xin heard the sound of her fingers snapping, and she gritted her teeth, "Ah, help..."

"Mom." Jiang Wanwan stood there, grabbing Jiang Zhi's wrist. "Sister, please let my mom go. She didn't mean it."

Jiang Zhi's eyes were as cold as ice, and she did not soften at all because of Jiang Wanwan's pleading.

She squeezed Lin Xin's fingers tightly until the woman's face was distorted with pain.

"I don't have a sister as old as you."

Jiang Zhi's voice was calm and firm, and her eyes revealed unquestionable determination.

A hint of hesitation flashed in Jiang Wanwan's eyes.

"Miss Jiang, my mother really didn't mean it."

Jiang Wanwan's voice was choked with sobs, and for a moment, she didn't know what to do.

Jiang Zhi suddenly released Lin Xin's fingers. "From now on, if you dare to appear in front of me again, it won't just be a matter of breaking a finger."

Lin Xin covered her fingers, pain radiating throughout her body. A trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she didn't dare say anything to Jiang Zhi.

She knew that this girl was not someone she could easily deal with.

Everything needs to be considered in the long term.

"Jiang Zhi, just wait, I will make you regret it." Lin Xin said gritting his teeth, then dragged Jiang Wanwan away.

Jiang Zhi looked at Lin Xin's back and knew in his heart that this conflict was far from over.

Under the light of the emergency room, Jiang Zhi's figure was elongated.

She stood there quietly, as if time had stood still, and the hustle and bustle around her seemed to have nothing to do with her.

Her eyes were deep, revealing a firmness and calmness, as if the conflict just now was just a small episode in her life.

She turned around and her eyes fell on the closed door of the emergency room.

A feeling of powerlessness came over me, like when I was fifteen.

She lay there half dead, and it was the news from her family that kept her alive.

Jiang Zhi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

She walked over to a chair nearby, sat down, closed her eyes, and tried to calm herself down.

Time passed minute by minute, and the door of the emergency room was finally opened.

The doctor came out, his face was tired, but there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"The situation is stable, but further observation is needed." The doctor's voice broke the silence outside the emergency room.

Jiang Zhi stood up, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"Don't ever irritate the old lady again."

"Thank you, Dr. Lin. I will pay attention to it." Jiang Zhi responded politely.

Lin Xin's appearance was unexpected, but it won't happen again in the future.

She would never let Lin Xin appear in front of the old lady again.

As night falls, the lights in the hospital corridor appear particularly dim.

Jiang Zhi was sitting beside her grandmother's hospital bed, the woman's hand tightly holding the wrinkled hand of the old lady on the bed.

She remained in this position as if time had stopped around her.

Although her body was tired, her will was as strong as steel.

The lights in the hospital corridor were still dim. Occasionally, a nurse or doctor passed by, and their footsteps were particularly clear in the silent night.

Jiang Zhi's breathing was steady and rhythmic, but her thoughts drifted far away, back to the warm times she spent with Grandma Jiang.

Grandma Jiang was very kind to her.

She remembered that when she first came to the Jiang family, she couldn't sleep because she was haunted by the nightmare.

It was Grandma Jiang who told her stories at night. Those stories were so heartwarming that they made her feel the warmth of home in the cold.

Grandma Jiang's hands were always so warm, stroking her hair, making her feel extremely safe and happy.

When Shang Yanjing came over, Jiang Zhi was holding the old lady's hand and fell asleep.

Shang Yanjing stared at the woman's face and walked over.

Suddenly he held up her body as she was about to fall.
