The Counterattack of a Wealthy Family's Substitute

Chapter 18 You'd better keep your word

Yao Yingyue never expected Yao Yingxi to die with her. Upon hearing this, her face paled. She didn't want Yao Yingxi to die with her. She couldn't drag her down with her because of her mistakes.

"Yueyue, do you miss your mother?" Yao Yingxi turned to look at Yao Yingyue, a smile on her face, her eyes filled with a resolute determination: "I miss her so much, we can finally see her."

Yao Yingyue didn't know why Yao Yingxi suddenly seemed even more desperate than her, but she understood her and knew that if she said that, she really would do it.

“Sister…” Yao Yingyue couldn’t help but tremble as she looked at Yao Yingxi, tears streaming down her face: “I… I won’t speak softly anymore, I won’t die, please don’t do this.”

"I was wrong, I was a bastard!" Yao Yingyue glanced at the people around her, and a security guard quickly offered her his hand. Yao Yingyue climbed down from the edge of the rooftop and rushed to where Yao Yingxi was standing, reaching out to hug her legs: "Sister, come down, come down! I'll never do it again!"

"Get down! You're scaring me!"

Yao Yingxi looked down at Yao Yingyue, and after a moment nodded, saying, "Okay."

Yao Yingyue laughed and quickly reached out to Yao Yingxi. Yao Yingxi handed her her hand, and when she turned around, her gaze fell outside the rooftop. She closed her eyes and went down from the rooftop.

Security guards and medical personnel rushed forward and quickly surrounded Yao Yingyue.

Fearing that Yao Yingyue might exhibit extreme behavior or become emotionally unstable again, the nurse administered a sedative to her and took her back to her ward.

Everyone followed Yao Yingyue away. Yao Yingxi squatted on the spot, covered her face with her hands, and trembled slightly.

At the top of the stairs, Xi Yuanchen squinted at Yao Yingyue.

About a minute later, he turned and left silently.

Yao Yingxi felt cold all over. After a long while, she slowly stood up and went down from the rooftop.

Yao Yingyue was fast asleep, and Liang Yu stood guard by her bedside, watching her silently, his eyes filled with a feeling that he didn't want to miss a single moment.

Yao Yingxi pursed her lips, closed the ward door, and walked to the side, leaning against the wall.

After an unknown amount of time, Liang Yu pushed open the ward door and came out. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yao Yingxi and said, "Yueyue is awake and looking for you."

Yao Yingxi nodded upon hearing this, her expression softening slightly, and then pushed open the door and went inside.

As soon as Yao Yingyue saw her, she pouted and started to cry, reaching out her hand and calling out in a choked voice, "Sister..."

Yao Yingxi smiled and walked over, hugging her tightly: "Why are you crying? Your sister is right here."

Yao Yingyue took a deep breath, her nose still filled with Yao Yingxi's scent, and only then did she slowly calm down. She opened her mouth, then cried again, "Sister, I'm sorry, I'll never do such a foolish thing again."

"Mmm." Yao Yingxi nodded, resting her chin on Yao Yingyue's head and patting her back. "I believe in you, and you believe in me. All of this will pass, okay?"

At this moment, Yao Yingyue was just like when she was a child, completely dependent on her, nodding frantically.

Yao Yingxi smiled and let go of her.

Because Yao Yingyue was emotionally unstable, the hospital had moved her from a regular ward to a private room. Yao Yingxi helped her lie down and sat beside her, chatting with her.

It wasn't until around 7 p.m. that Yao Yingyue ate her meal and slowly fell asleep, and only then did Yao Yingxi leave the hospital.

After leaving the hospital, Yao Yingxi dialed Xu Xinya's number.

The phone was answered after only two rings, and Xu Xinya's sweet voice came through: "Hello, my dear sister."

"Xu Xinya! How can you stop hurting Yueyue!" Yao Yingxi stated her meaning directly, indicating that she no longer had the right to confront Xu Xinya.

As Xu Xinya said, she can only beg her now, and she can only hope that she will take pity on her and let her and Yao Yingyue go soon.

"Tsk, scared now? Finally willing to bow down?" Xu Xinya pushed open the door of the KTV room and walked in: "You want me to let Yao Yingyue go? Then let me see your sincerity."

Xu Xinya gave Yao Yingxi an address and then hung up the phone. Yao Yingxi listened to the busy tone in her ear, then hailed a taxi to the place Xu Xinya had mentioned.

Half an hour later, Yao Yingxi stood at the door of the private room Xu Xinya had mentioned. She pushed the door open and went inside, and the crowd of people inside suddenly quieted down.

A rich second-generation guy with pink hair and a black skirt looked at Yao Yingxi and said rudely, "Who the hell is this? You look so shabby, get out of here! Don't pollute our air."

Yao Yingxi stood still, not caring at all about what the rich second-generation said: "I'm looking for Xu Xinya."

The rich second-generation frowned, but before he could speak, Xu Xinya stepped out from the crowd and looked at Yao Yingxi: "My dear sister, you've finally arrived?"

Xu Xinya glanced at the time on her wrist, a sweet smile spreading across her face: "It arrived exactly on time, down to the second. Hmm... I'm quite dissatisfied!"

“Drink this bottle of wine.” Xu Xinya pointed to a freshly opened bottle of foreign liquor on the table next to her: “Kneel down and slap yourself twenty times, then we can talk about your sister.”

The people in the private room had been quiet since Xu Xinya walked out of the crowd, but after hearing Xu Xinya's words, the group of rich kids started to get excited.

Everyone started clapping, and someone said, "Ya Ya, you really know how to have fun! That's exciting, we love it!"

Yao Yingxi looked at Xu Xinya with undisguised hatred in her eyes.

Xu Xinya looked at her too, but didn't take her hatred seriously at all. She raised an eyebrow: "My dear sister, is this how you ask for favors? I heard that little bitch Yao Yingyue threatened to jump off a building today?"

Yao Yingxi stood still, while Xu Xinya's cronies eagerly asked, "Ya Ya, why isn't this beggar cooperating? Should we take action?"

Xu Xinya told her cronies "No need" and looked at Yao Yingxi, waiting for her to compromise.

After a standoff of about a minute, Yao Yingxi spoke up: "Xu Xinya, you'd better keep your word!"

After saying that, Yao Yingxi reached for the bottle of wine, tilted her head back, and gulped it down. After finishing the wine, she knelt down on the ground and began to slap herself.

Everyone was taken aback by Yao Yingxi's decisive series of actions. After they came to their senses, a second round of cheers and applause erupted in the private room.

Everyone whistled around Xu Xinya and Yao Yingxi, and someone started to compliment Xu Xinya: "Ya Ya, you're amazing! You can do that!"

"It's been so long since I've had this much fun! You're such a cutie!"

"This beggar is nothing but a fart in front of you!"

Surrounded by people, Xu Xinya smiled upon hearing this, but she wasn't happy at all!

Yao Yingxi knelt down and slapped herself repeatedly like a machine. It seemed like she had given in, but the unyielding look in her eyes made Xu Xinya grit her teeth in hatred.

After receiving twenty slaps, Yao Yingxi stood up.

Xu Xinya yelled at the people surrounding her, "Get out!"

The group exchanged glances and quickly left.

Xu Xinya walked up to Yao Yingxi, her face dark, and grabbed her chin, saying viciously, "Yao Yingxi, don't you think you're so high and mighty? From now on, I'll show you how pathetic you can be trampled on!"
