Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Jiang Rou’s Sinister Scheme 1_1

After the sisters-in-law left that night, they immediately began lavishly praising Xia Ningxing throughout the residential compound.

Never underestimate the power of women’s gossip, for overnight, Xia Ningxing went from being known as the ill-tempered, lazy, rich girl to the patient, exceedingly kind, and super gentle little sister-in-law in everyone’s mouth.

Jiang Rou was instantly so angry she could die.

Her plan to isolate Xia Ningxing had actually failed!

She glared at Xia Ningxing’s back with a dark expression, and suddenly another cunning idea rose in her heart...

Ha!

This time, she refused to believe that she couldn’t drive Xia Ningxing out of the research institute!

Oh no, to be precise, to make her lose even the qualification to be a research spouse!

The next day, Xia Ningxing was watering the vegetable garden in the courtyard.

One of the sisters-in-law had given her a packet of cilantro seeds yesterday, and she had scattered them into the soil on a whim.

"Miss Xia." It was then that Jiang Rou, wearing her signature white coat, approached her with a smile. Her features were delicate and harmless, with a touch of valor.

She came from a well-off family and was also quite accomplished, graduating from a top traditional medicine university in the country.

She secured a position at the research institute as a doctor through connections right after graduation, and within two years, she had become the leader of the opera troupe because of her singing and dancing skills.

And she had also fallen for Lu Tingli at first sight.

All this was what the sisters-in-law had told Xia Ningxing during their casual chat yesterday.

The sisters-in-law had also warned her to watch out for Jiang Rou, because it was she who had initially spread the rumors about her being a temperamental rich girl.

Even without the sisters-in-law’s warnings, Xia Ningxing would not have been pleased to see her, "Do you need something from me?"

She hadn’t forgotten how Jiang Rou had tried to lay hands on her man just a few days ago!

"Miss Xia, you’re not still jealous of me, are you?" Seeing her reaction, Jiang Rou laughed helplessly, as if expecting this response, and quickly stepped forward to grasp her hand, pretending to be hearty and generous, "I must admit, I did indeed like your Captain Lu at first, but since I found out he’s got a beautiful and capable wife like you, I’ve given up on that idea."

"Oh by the way, I went on a blind date a few days ago."

As if afraid Xia Ningxing wouldn’t believe her, she added another sentence.

"Look, you come from a good background, you’re well-educated, and you’re top-notch in looks as well. How could I, an ordinary woman, compete with you? It’s better to withdraw voluntarily than to be humiliated by my own accord."

"Oh... It’s good that you’re aware of your own place," Xia Ningxing withdrew her hand and responded indifferently.

It had to be said, this woman was really cunning, first humbling herself to befriend her, then flatteringly praising her. If she were an ordinary clueless rich girl, she would probably have foolishly believed her.

Too bad, Xia Ningxing thought her brain worked quite well.

"So, you shouldn’t mind this matter anymore, okay!" Jiang Rou thought she really believed her and was secretly delighted.

She knew schoolgirls like her were easy to deceive!

Xia Ningxing didn’t answer her and gave the order to leave directly, "Do you have anything else? If not, please leave. I’m busy with other things."

Jiang Rou thought her silence meant she didn’t mind, and immediately said, "Actually, there is one thing I was hoping Miss Xia could help me with."

"What is it?" Xia Ningxing narrowed her eyes, wondering what the woman was up to.
