Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Egg Against a Rock, Overestimating Oneself

Hearing You Jingqiu's words, Xu Zeqing's expression became solemn. He quickly warned You Jingqiu, "You should stop thinking about unrealistic things! Do you know what it means to be a noble family? Families that can be called noble have at least three generations of aristocracy. The children educated with the wealth and knowledge accumulated through several generations are all extraordinary talents."

"Ming Yue might be far more outstanding than the children of the families you have come across, but compared with those born at the top of the pyramid, there's still a world of difference."

It's not that Xu Zeqing looks down on his own children; it's just that the children of others are too exceptional.

Xu Zeqing's words were ruthless and realistic, making You Jingqiu's face somewhat uneasy.

These years, she has been running a beauty salon. Although she has managed to live worry-free, without lacking food or clothing, and can even encounter some wealthy ladies and young women,

these people are still far from the true noble aristocracy.

Having not interacted with the true noble heirs, she naturally doesn't know the difference between her children and theirs.

You Jingqiu tightened her coat, watching the nurse push Xu Xingguang into the elevator. She thought: Even if my daughter is not as good as those noble heiresses, she will surely live better than Mo Yinshu's daughter in the future!

That's enough!

The news of Xu Xingguang waking up was like a thunderbolt dropping into a fish pond, startling a bunch of big fish.

"Ah Heng, I heard someone say Xu Xingguang actually woke up. Is it true?" A woman dressed in a white Chanel-style suit, carrying a black lambskin bag, directly barged into Jiang Heng's office.

Behind the desk sat a man in an iron-gray shirt, hunched over in the boss chair, the tight shirt accentuating his solid shoulder muscles.

Upon hearing the commotion, he lifted his head, his fierce black eyes filled with aggression.

"You know?" The man's voice was surprisingly calm.

Bai Xuan nodded, "I saw the news."

#GeniusSuspenseYoungAuthorXuXingguangAwakens# This topic has already occupied the trending list on Weibo.

Bai Xuan happened to be shopping downstairs today, planning to have dinner with Jiang Heng after he got off work. When she came across this Weibo post at the café, she was so startled that she spilled coffee and immediately rushed to Jiang Heng's office to confirm.

"Ah Heng, is it true? Did Xu Xingguang really wake up?" Bai Xuan still could not believe it was true.

Thinking about the sins they committed against Xu Xingguang over the years, Bai Xuan felt uneasy.

Jiang Heng nodded before saying, "It's true."

He leaned back, resting one hand on the armrest and the other holding a mouse, opening a vlog Xu Xingguang posted on Weibo an hour ago.

Bai Xuan sat on Jiang Heng's lap, leaning against him to watch the video.

It was a recorded video shot in a hospital rehabilitation room. The protagonist in the video, wearing a loose striped hospital gown, was enduring pain during walking training. Her complexion was somewhat pale, but her face was extraordinarily stunning and captivating.

Xu Xingguang's face, dazzlingly beautiful, her bright eyes more brilliant than the galaxy, possessing an unforgettable charm.

In these three years, whenever Bai Xuan's condition flared up, Jiang Heng would take her to Yujiang City to extract Xu Xingguang's blood for her use.

Bai Xuan would certainly not mistake her.

"It's really her!"

But how could this be possible?

Bai Xuan shook her head, saying in disbelief, "She has been comatose for three years, the doctors said her internal organs were accelerating in failure, there was no chance of waking up!"

Jiang Heng was also somewhat restless.

To prevent future troubles, he directly acquired Xu Zeqing's company back then. The Xu Family is now like rats hiding in the sewer, fleeing at the sight of him.

Yet Jiang Heng didn't expect Xu Xingguang to wake up.

Xu Xingguang is a person who insists on having her way, one who holds grudges.

Now she surely knows the truth of why he pursued her back then and will not let it go easily.

Bai Xuan leaned against Jiang Heng, holding his waist, saying worriedly, "She will certainly seek revenge on us."

"Revenge?" Jiang Heng sneered, dismissively saying, "The past Xu Family was not in my eyes, the current Xu Family is bankrupt, her father has married a new lover, and she has lost her mother. How could she seek revenge on us?"

"It's nothing more than a doomed effort beyond one's power." Jiang Heng did not take Xu Xingguang seriously.

The business world is like a big river; Qinglang Daily Chemical Company founded by Xu Zeqing is merely a small shrimp in this river. As for their Jiang Family, it is like a gigantic crocodile.

How could a small shrimp possibly catch Jiang Heng's eye?

Bai Xuan was still not at ease, saying, "As the saying goes, those unafraid to lose have nothing to fear. If Xu Xingguang really goes insane, it would be quite troublesome."

Jiang Heng retracted the hand holding the mouse and wrapped Bai Xuan's slender waist, affectionately kissing her forehead, saying, "Darling, don't worry, even if Xu Xingguang wakes up, she still won't make any waves."

"If she obediently hides in Yujiang City, I'll spare her, after all, she has been your free blood bank for these years. Besides, even though your condition has temporarily been contained, there's still a possibility of recurrence in the future. Keeping her alive still has its uses."

"If she doesn't understand the situation..." Jiang Heng's gaze suddenly turned vicious, he said contemptuously, "Then I'll make her disappear from this world forever!"

After all, she's just a somewhat renowned little writer; if she happened to die accidentally, who could dare say it was his doing?
