Chapter 982: It really wasn't me!

At this moment, in the A04 villa at Tang Chen One.

Zhang Guifen, Li Yueqin, and Dong Yuling had just filled their stomachs.

They waited and waited, but they couldn't wait for Old Mrs. Xiao’s family to return, and they were hungry and uncomfortable. They happened to find the ingredients Qian Hongyan had prepared but hadn't had time to cook, so they took the liberty of using those ingredients to make a sumptuous feast.

Before Wu Donghai withdrew his capital, the Xiao family’s standard of living was quite good. After all, Wu Donghai had invested in the Xiao Group, allowing it to regain its vitality, and the old lady had returned to her old-fashioned ways, with a significant improvement in their standard of living.

Moreover, Qian Hongyan had specially prepared very rich ingredients today, just to celebrate for Xiao Changqian and Xiao Hailong after they dealt with Ma Lan.

Unexpectedly, the Xiao family didn't get to eat a single bite of these ingredients; they all went to Zhang Guifen and the others.

The three of them were now full, lying sprawled on the sofa watching TV.

This TV was moved up from the basement room after Xiao Hailong sold the big TV. Compared to the previous one, it was indeed much smaller and looked a bit uncoordinated in the huge living room.

Zhang Guifen was watching TV while smacking her lips, saying, "Oh my, Old Mrs. Xiao’s villa is good in every way, but this TV seems a bit small. Compared to such a big living room, it looks a bit uncoordinated."

Dong Yuling asked in surprise, "My dear mother! Isn't this big TV 50 inches? The TV in our village chief’s house isn't even this big, and you say this is small?"

"Yeah..." Li Yueqin also chimed in, "I’ve never seen such a big TV before."

Zhang Guifen waved her hand and said, "You don't understand. TVs in rich people’s houses start at 70 or 80 inches. Last year, when I was working at a housekeeping company in the city, I went to clean a rich person’s house, and that TV was several times bigger than this!"

Dong Yuling sighed, "Goodness! Why have such a big TV? Doesn't your eyes get tired running back and forth on such a big TV screen?"

Zhang Guifen sneered, "Look at your lack of ambition. According to you, when people watch a movie in a cinema, their eyeballs must fall to the ground!"

Dong Yuling scratched her head, "I’ve never been to a cinema, I don't know what it’s like."

Zhang Guifen said, "I have. I’ve worked as a cleaner in a cinema too. Let me tell you, the screen in the cinema is bigger than one wall of this living room, you two just imagine!"

Li Yueqin on the side asked, "Bigger than this wall, that’s too scary!"

Zhang Guifen said, "You two really haven't seen the world. Wait until Old Mrs. Xiao takes us to the cinema to watch a movie, then you’ll know!"

As the three were chatting, the ambulance had already driven into the courtyard.

However, they had the TV volume turned up very high, so no one heard the movement outside.

After the ambulance stopped, the driver and the passenger jumped out and somewhat roughly moved Xiao Changqian and Xiao Hailong out of the car.

They didn't move them down with the mobile hospital bed but directly moved them down and placed them on the marble floor in the courtyard.

Old Mrs. Xiao saw that they were about to get in the car and leave, so she hurriedly said, "Aren't you going to help us get them inside?"

The driver said impatiently, "The customer’s request was just to send you to the place, it doesn't include the cost of moving them inside. If you want us to help, that’s fine, 200 each."

Old Mrs. Xiao said, "I don't have a single cent!"

The driver frowned and asked, "You live in such a luxurious villa, and you don't have 400?"

Old Mrs. Xiao said anxiously, "We don't use cash when we go out now, so we haven't kept any money at home. Now our mobile payments and bank cards are all frozen, there’s really no way!"

The driver waved his hand, "Then we can't help."

Xiao Weiwei said angrily, "You’re doctors, isn't saving lives and helping the wounded what you should do?"

The driver looked at her seriously, "Little girl, I need to make it clear to you. We aren't doctors, and this isn't a 120 emergency ambulance from a public hospital, but a transfer ambulance operated by a private company. It’s just like a taxi; we drive to earn money. If you pay, we work, understand?"

Xiao Weiwei was speechless.

The man said with disdain, "What kind of people, living in such a good villa, and they can't even spare 400!"

After saying that, the two of them got into the car and drove away.

Xiao Weiwei stomped her feet in anger, and the old lady sighed helplessly, saying to her and Qian Hongyan, "My old bones can't exert any strength. You two lift Changqian into the house first, and then come out to lift Hailong."

Xiao Weiwei and Qian Hongyan also knew there was no other way, so they could only grit their teeth and use all their strength to carefully prop up Xiao Changqian.

Xiao Changqian kept groaning in pain, saying painfully, "Be careful, it’s really too painful..."

Old Mrs. Xiao shook her head and sighed, "Changqian, there’s really no other way now, just bear with it!"

As she spoke, she said to Xiao Weiwei and Qian Hongyan, "You two hold Changqian steady, I’ll go open the door first!"

Xiao Weiwei and Qian Hongyan struggled to prop up Xiao Changqian and moved step by step to the door. Old Mrs. Xiao was about to scan her fingerprint to open the door when she suddenly heard the sound of the TV inside and asked Xiao Weiwei in surprise, "Weiwei, didn't you turn off the TV when we left?"

Xiao Weiwei shook her head, "I was in too much of a hurry when we left, I forgot too."

"Alright." Old Mrs. Xiao didn't think much of it and opened the door directly.

As soon as the door opened, she saw three people lying on the sofa in the living room!

She shouted in fright, "Who... who are you people?!"

Zhang Guifen and the others heard the movement, suddenly turned their heads, and found Old Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Weiwei. They recognized these two former prison mates at a glance.

Zhang Guifen was extremely excited, ran over first, and said excitedly, "Old lady! You’re finally back! We’ve been waiting for you for a long time!"

Old Mrs. Xiao was shocked speechless when she saw the three people running over barefoot.

She naturally recognized Zhang Guifen and the others, but she couldn't figure out why these three were out? And why were they in her house?!

So, she asked in surprise, "Guifen, how... how are you here!"

Zhang Guifen said excitedly, "Old lady! You’re still playing dumb! Didn't you arrange for our bail and get us out?"

"Me?!" Old Mrs. Xiao said with a confused face, "This... isn't there some misunderstanding?"

"What misunderstanding!" Zhang Guifen hurriedly said, "Old lady, I know you’re grateful that we helped you a lot and took care of you a lot in the detention center, so you want to repay us and want us to come live in Tang Chen One and enjoy a peaceful life!"

Li Yueqin on the side also chimed in, "Yeah, Old Mrs. Xiao, you’re truly too kind! You even sent a big Mercedes to pick us up. This is the first time in my life I’ve sat in a big Mercedes!"

Zhang Guifen said with some emotion, "Old lady, let me tell you the truth, the three of us are very grateful to you! So we’ve decided that from now on, we’ll stay here and not leave. We’ll treat you like our own mother and take care of you until you pass away!"

Old Mrs. Xiao felt a deep sense of despair welling up in her heart and blurted out anxiously, "Guifen, listen to me, there must be some misunderstanding here. It really wasn't me who got you out! And I really didn't intend for you to come here and live with me!"
