Chapter 501: Chapter 502: Going Out to Hide (Seeking Monthly Pass)

It had been half a year since I last saw Chiang Xiao.

Back then, while she was pale and pretty, she resembled a malnourished kitten that could be blown over by a gust of wind; moreover, her large eyes were lifeless, and she seemed rather listless.

But now, Chiang Xiao had completely transformed.

Although she was still slender, she no longer appeared frail, especially her cheeks, which after gaining a bit of flesh, looked youthfully charming and irresistible. The sparkle in those big eyes of hers was undeniable, and she had grown noticeably taller—truly, a sight to behold.

"Uncle," Chiang Xiao called out to him.

"Ah, ah!" Yang Dazhi finally snapped back to reality, and managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Chiang Xiao is becoming more and more handsome."

This was indeed one of the happiest and most comforting developments for Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao.

In this period, they, too, had witnessed the changes in Chiang Xiao, and it was precisely because of the marked difference after she left the Old Chiang Family that they became more resolute and decisively took her advice.

"We’ve been eating a lot these days," Chiang Songhai commented.

Chiang Xiao was immediately dumbstruck.

Was her grandpa complimenting her? It felt more like he was talking about a pig. It was normal for her to eat more now that she was in good health and had a good appetite, and she was still growing.

And besides, their financial situation was now good—they weren’t lacking food!

Chiang Xiao felt that in this life, she would definitely grow taller than she did in her previous one.

"Uncle, did you come to see my grandpa because you have some matters?" Chiang Xiao asked. Yang Dazhi always listened to Chiang Qingshui, so him coming to them meant there had to be something.

At her question, Yang Dazhi showed an embarrassed and conflicted expression. He rubbed his palms on his trouser legs, looking somewhat uneasy and nervous. "I came, Qingshui doesn’t know. I just want to let you know, see if there’s a place we can hide in these next couple of days, to keep Qingshui from finding you guys."

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.

What did that mean?

Chiang Xiao frowned, "Uncle, do you mean to say, my aunt wants to find us? And it’s with ill-intentions?" Forgive my directness.

Yang Dazhi looked at her and silently nodded.

"Mom’s been hospitalized and it cost quite a lot of money. Dad sent word, first to call me and Qingshui over to help out for a few days, secondly to ask if we could front some money for the medical expenses. But Qingshui said that whoever caused mom to be in the hospital should be the one to pay, insisting that we, that I, shouldn’t be the ones to pay."

"Then shouldn’t this money come from Chiang Baohe?" Chiang Xiao listened expressionlessly.

What did it mean that they were preparing to come to them?

"Qingshui says that Second Brother would hit mom because he was worried about the stress from dad fainting, and on the day dad fainted, it was after he had gone to see you all. So, she claims that you all need to take responsibility for this..."

Yang Dazhi struggled to get these words out and lowered his head with some guilt.

He certainly knew his wife was being unreasonable, but he just couldn’t talk her out of it.

Just now, after listening to Ho Laidi’s sob story at the hospital, Chiang Qingshui angrily exclaimed that once she’d sorted things out, she was going to settle the score with Chiang Songhai’s family.

Worried that her rant might actually lead her to confront his uncle’s family, he quickly made up an excuse to come out, hoping to find his uncle and tell them to leave right away and not to stay at home.

Luckily, he ran into Ge Liutao.

He couldn’t dare let Chiang Qingshui find out about this; if she did, she would surely turn the world upside down with her anger.

Upon hearing this, Ge Liutao became visibly anxious. She looked at Chiang Songhai, her lips moved, but she seemed at a loss for words.
