Lu Ning reached out and grabbed Madam Mo's hand, then raised her eyelids slightly.

Madam Mo was immediately furious and forcefully withdrew her hand.

Lu Ning suddenly let go, and Madam Mo lost her balance and fell to the ground.

She spoke expressionlessly: "Madam Mo, hitting someone is against the law. Now I finally know who Mo Shanshan learned this from. Doesn't this mean that like father, like son?"

"Lu Ning, how could you be so disrespectful? Your whole family is corrupt from top to bottom, and your older brother even has the audacity to become a live-in son-in-law. Have you no shame?"

Madam Mo had never suffered such humiliation. That little bitch Lu Ning was quite arrogant and smug!

Lu Ning's lips curled slightly: "My older brother is quite shameless, so I agree with what you said."

It doesn't matter if anyone in the Lu family insults her parents or anyone else, as long as they don't insult her parents.

Madam Mo glared angrily at Lu Ning: "Don't think that Ji Chiqian will treat you like a princess now. You don't know that he's hiding something from you."

"What else is he hiding from me?"

Lu Ning carefully observed Madam Mo's expression. The woman had a smug look on her face, as if she had caught her red-handed.

Madam Mo straightened her clothes with an air of aloofness: "You want to know so badly? Then beg me!"

"Then I don't want to know."

Lu Ning finished speaking casually and then tried to leave.

Madam Mo was furious and embarrassed: "Lu Ning, you're lying, aren't you? Ji Chiqian has concealed his true identity and his true purpose in deliberately getting close to you."

Lu Ning turned her head to the side: "Do you think you can sow discord between him and me by saying these things? Your daughter, Mo Shiyi, has already used the same trick once."

She won't fall for it easily this time.

Madam Mo snorted coldly: "But judging from your eyes, you don't seem to disbelieve me. Think about it, as the heir of the Ji family, why would he suddenly go to a university to become a school doctor, and stay by your side incognito, helping you all this time? Haven't you ever had any doubts?"

Lu Ning hurriedly clenched her hands, her mind becoming somewhat confused.

Madam Mo smiled elegantly and lowered her voice: "Don't you think all of this seems strange? Is he with you because he likes you, or is there another reason?"

"enough!"

Lu Ning stared at Madam Mo: "I am very grateful for the clues you provided. I will ask Ji Chiqian about them myself later."

Madam Mo's smile faded considerably. She had expected to see Lu Ning looking flustered, but the little vixen remained remarkably calm.

Madam Mo gritted her teeth and said, "Do you think you can get the truth out of him? He will keep lying to you and will never tell you the truth. I only feel sorry for you because I see you being completely fooled, so I kindly remind you."

Lu Ning really wanted to just leave.

But she remembered that Lu Dongyou had said that the vehicle involved in the accident belonged to the Mo family, which meant that someone from the Mo family was sitting in the back of the car.

She thought for a moment, then turned to look at Madam Mo: "You've told me so much, what exactly do you want to do?"

"I already said, I only reminded you this out of pity."

"But if Ji Chiqian refuses to tell me the truth, how can you expect me to tell you what he's hiding from me? Do you want me to drop the charges and not pursue the matter of Mo Shanshan falsely accusing me of stealing?"

Lu Ning stared intently at Madam Mo, not missing a single expression on her face.

"You're quite smart, it's just a pity that you..."

Before Madam Mo could finish speaking, Madam Ji's voice came from behind: "Lu Ning, what brings you here?"

After Mrs. Ji came out of the intensive care unit, she saw Lu Ning standing with Mrs. Mo, took off her sterile gown and walked over.

Madam Mo suddenly changed her expression, turned around and took Madam Ji's arm, saying, "You're out. How is the old lady? Is she very angry with Lu Ning?"

Ideally, Old Mrs. Ji would dislike Lu Ning and prevent this little slut from being with Ji Chiqian.

Madam Ji sighed: "I can only say that the situation has stabilized for the time being."

"It's all Lu Ning's fault. She was disrespectful to the old lady and said things that made her sick. You've been so good to that brat Lu Ning, and what did she do? She turned around and made the old lady sick. Our Shiyi used to take such good care of the old lady."

Mrs. Mo spared no effort in smearing Lu Ning.

Lu Ning looked at Madam Ji with a guilty expression: "I didn't mean to."

Madam Ji's expression wasn't good either: "Lu Ning, may I ask what you said to the old lady that made her so angry that she had to be resuscitated again?"

Grandma Ji was a very kind person and the best mother-in-law she had ever met.

So now Mrs. Ji really wants to know why Lu Ning did this?

Hearing these accusatory words, Lu Ning felt as if a wad of cotton was stuck in her chest, making it hard to breathe.

She paused for a moment before replying, "Grandma Ji told me not to be with Ji Chiqian."

Actually, this was not unexpected for Lu Ning.

Madam Ji remained silent for a moment.

Madam Mo was both surprised and delighted. She covered her mouth and said to Madam Mo, "See what I said back then? The old lady is the best judge of character. She thought they weren't suitable. It's probably because Lu Ning disagreed and went against the old lady's wishes that the old lady had to be rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night."

Lu Ning's eyes reddened slightly: "Aunt Ji, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have answered with such offensive words."

Madam Ji wiped away her tears: "You're a good child. Since the old lady has said so, we should respect her, right?"

The words she didn't say were finally spoken by the seriously ill old man, making him the villain.

Lu Ning lowered her eyelids and said with difficulty, "Yes."

The scales began to tip at this moment. She knew how important this old man was to Ji Chiqian, and how could she bear to let Ji Chiqian lose his most important relative?

Even though she didn't want to let go at all.

Lu Ning didn't know how she got back to her hospital room. She sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought.

Li Man walked over and said softly, "Miss Lu, don't be too sad. After all, Old Madam Ji doesn't have much time left, and it's generally difficult for juniors to disobey her requests."

"I know."

Lu Ning twitched the corners of her mouth; she knew how important Old Madam Ji was to Ji Chiqian.

She also knew that Old Mrs. Ji would pass away next year.

She was sad not because Madam Ji and Old Madam Ji prevented her from being with Ji Chiqian.

It was because the old man really didn't have much time left.

She didn't want to leave any rift or regret between Ji Chiqian and the old man in the remaining time.

Li Man sighed: "You should get some rest."

Lu Ning wiped her eyes: "By the way, any news from the 4S store? Have they found out any connection with the Mo family?"

She learned from Chen Yu that the repairman might have a close relationship with Madam Mo, but too much time had passed and no clues had been found yet.

"Currently, the mechanic has no contact with Mrs. Mo. The Mo family's vehicles are usually repaired by the driver, and they rarely come to the house."

"That means they are all keeping a certain distance from each other now and are not in contact."

Lu Ning thought to herself, "Perhaps we need to find a way to throw these people into disarray or cause them to fight amongst themselves."

After the AI ​​project sample exhibition next week, Lu Dongyou will probably make the payment to PZ Company.

She was eager to see what Qin Xiang would do.

As long as the recipient of the embezzled public funds is caught, we can find Qin Xiang's father, who is still alive behind the scenes.

If we catch Qin Xiang's father, we'll definitely be able to find out the truth behind the car accident!

Lu Ning was alone in the room when Madam Mo knocked on the door and came in: "Can we talk alone? I promise it will be something you'll be interested in."
