782 Another Strategy

CHAPTER 782
With Ding Jiaying speaking to her like that, Li Xiu fumed inwardly. As much as she hated many things in their lives, she knew she needed her mother's support if she was going to ruin Li Jing.
Together both mother and daughter marched off towards the end of the corridor to a decided place where no one would easily disturb them and their plans.
Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Li Xiu turned her head to the side, keeping her lips pressed together in a thin line.
"Fume all you want but till now you still need me to teach you how to be discreet? How are you that stupid?" Ding Jiaying attacked.
"Mother I..."
"Shut it, you disappointing fool. How can Li Jing outsmart you that way? Besides this is no time to get stupidly angry. We need her."
"Need her? We only need her money which I won't need if I can ruin her marriage and sneak in with Ye Cheng. All I need is to become pregnant for him."
No sooner had those words fallen from her lips than a terrifying aura seeped out of her mother.
Cold sweat broke out the second her eyes caught sight of the glare her mother shot at her.
"Is it that you are mad or you are mad?" Ding Jiaying questioned. Her menacing eyes swept over her daughter once more.
"It is not that you are dull but if you could, wouldn't you have gotten Ye Cheng by now?"
"Mother, I..." She placed her hand on her chest, wanting to give an explanation but her words were cut off when Ding Jiaying lifted her palm.
"No excuse. Ye Cheng is way out of your league and now I know why, he has a wife like Li Jing."
She felt her heart cut into a million pieces from her mother's non-reassuring words.
"Now do not be gloomy and take this as a challenge. To defeat your enemy, you must become them, think like them, act like them until you surpass them and you will."
Her brows creased as her eyes darted in their socket, confusion marring her face.
"Think of it this way... If you want something, get it. The farther it is from your reach the stronger your desire to have it. If you want Ye Cheng then this is the final battle. It is time we take her down."
Li Xiu's eyes lit up, there was hope and from the looks of things, her mother only did and said those words to motivate her.
Thankfully, that was what she wanted.
"Time to call Bai Qing Mei. It was her help I mentioned earlier. To take down Li Jing properly, we need to prepare for the final attack."
"And the money for dad's health?"
"We can pay for the hospital bills but we have enough to support our plans. This way, Bai Qing Mei won't feel like she is using us because of our revenge and hate."
"I understand mum. I will put a call across to her."
"Yes, you do that."
"This should have her gnash her teeth, sink and taste defeat, then she would come down from her high horse and recall she is from the slumps."
*********
Li Jing's return home was swift. She already felt tired of having to exchange words with idiots.
The thought alone made her feel weak that she really did but she managed to look alive to not bring Ye Cheng's worry upon herself.
Letting out a yawn, Li Jing lazily walked into her room, shutting the door behind her.
Ever since she got in, there was no sign that her naughty husband of was at home.
"Tsk, did he go out?" She wondered out loud and stretched to feel better.
With no response whatsoever she continued walking till she stopped in front of the bed and dropped her bag and sat down on it.
"A lovely massage would be nice and what would be greater would be the sweet effect of Ye Cheng's lips."
Her cheeks flushed a bright red just recalling their earlier wild days.
During this period, it was either one of them was busy or they were both tired thanks to the activities that drowned them in.
At the same time, the thought of what had transpired that morning worked its way into her mind as she began to revisit everything.
There was no doubt her father was hiding something. She did not know what yet, but it was definitely something that would affect him.
"It isn't like telling someone about their root would kill you, tsk. Or is it that he fears he won't have any link to me again or what? If he is scared for his company, I can ask Grandpa Lin to help," she muttered.
She shook her head. No matter how much she wanted to help, it would be another war asking her grandfather to do that.
Suddenly she heard a sound coming from the bathroom and snapped her head in that direction.
"Huh? No one should be here," Li Jing whispered.
Immediately her brain went on high alert as she rose back to her teeth, taking off one of her shoes, using it as her weapon and tiptoes over to the door.
Her back was slightly bent, her eyes sharp and ready like a predator about to attack its prey.
By the time she arrived at the door, Li Jing placed her hand on the handle, shut her eyes briefly while silently counting from one to three in her mind and pulled the door open.
"Who the hell are you burg..."
Her words were instantly silenced when the weight of someone from the other side pulled the door open at the same time forcing her to lose balance.
She had not anticipated any of this before and before she knew it, Li Jing was falling face first on the body of someone as they both crashed into the ground.
THUD!
Her head landed on hard wet muscles sending a wave of pain coursing through her head.
"Arrmmm..." She cried out, unable to keep silent since her mission had been discovered.
"Ow..."
At the sound of the familiar voice, her eyes snapped open and she lifted her head to clarify.
