Chapter 363: Chapter 363: Bail Release
Old Jiang used some connections, and all the procedures were completed, which took five days. And Jiang Xue also returned from Huanglong Village, bringing back a lot of vegetables planted by her in-laws.
Now, Old Jiang’s focus was entirely on Cheng Li, so he had no reaction to Jiang Xue’s return. At this moment, he only wanted to bail Cheng Li out as soon as possible and then take her back to South City.
After confirming Cheng Li’s identity, Old Jiang specifically went to the prison again to have a detailed talk with Cheng Li. When Cheng Li heard she was Old Jiang’s granddaughter, Jiang Mingzhu’s elder sister, she was stunned.
How could she be Mrs. Cheng’s biological daughter, and now suddenly become the Jiang Family’s granddaughter?
Of course, she cleverly did not voice this question, instead, she listened to Old Jiang recount the entire situation.
After hearing Old Jiang’s account, Cheng Li naturally decided not to reveal the truth. The arrogant demeanor of Jiang Mingzhu in front of her and the instances when Jiang Xue hit her flashed through her mind. She swore to guard this secret to the death and never tell anyone that she was not really part of the Jiang Family.
She swallowed the words ready to be spoken, accepting Old Jiang’s narrative, accepting her new identity as Old Jiang’s granddaughter.
Since that conversation with Old Jiang, Cheng Li changed completely, no longer despondent, no longer idling away her days, as if electrified.
She waited quietly for her release on bail, silently thinking about how to slap Jiang Xue in the face, to let her know her current status.
While making Jiang Xue envious, jealous, and hateful, she would also fiercely torment her. Naturally, she would return all the things Jiang Xue did to her in the past.
Once, she thought she would always have to swallow her anger, unable to do anything about it. But unexpectedly, with the twists of fate, the Jiang Family willingly acknowledged her, giving her a chance to turn the tables.
Since fate had given her such a good opportunity, she naturally had to seize it well.
On the second day after returning to Xu City, Jiang Xue still learned about Cheng Li being bailed out. For this, she even made a special trip to the police station to find out what was going on.
Because of Mu Qiancheng’s connections, the people at the police station told her everything. When she learned that the person bailing out Cheng Li was actually Old Jiang, Jiang Xue’s feelings were complex.
Originally, Jiang Xue had little affection for Old Jiang, and this made her even more resentful of him.
Oh well, it’s just Cheng Li; she’ll be cautious about it. As long as Cheng Li doesn’t cause any trouble, she’ll turn a blind eye.
Of course, if Cheng Li is still like before or thinks she can rely on backing to do anything to her, then don’t blame her for settling both old and new scores together.
Jiang Xue pushed this matter to the back of her mind and directly busied herself with the training class affairs. She had already heard that several parents had been looking for her during her absence from Xu City.
So, these days she was busy responding to those parents who had contacted her and preparing to start classes.
On this day, Jiang Xue, as usual, locked the training class doors at six o’clock and cycled home. Unexpectedly, at her doorstep, she saw someone, Cheng Li, just released from prison.
Seeing Jiang Xue, Cheng Li, who had been leaning against the wall, immediately stood up straight, ready for a confrontation.
Jiang Xue did not expect Cheng Li to come looking for her just after being released, and frowned, asking coldly, "What are you doing here, anything you need from me?"
"I came to see you. And by the way, to let you know that I’m out." Cheng Li looked at Jiang Xue with a smug face, a look of showing off.
