Chapter 518 Unable to Guard Against a Heart That Turns to Treachery

The next morning, Luo Baiwan heard the phone ring as soon as he entered his office, and he answered it casually.

"Uncle, this is Donglan. I'm at the First Municipal Hospital right now. Last night, Luo Jing ran out and bumped her head. I brought her to the hospital. Her homeroom teacher helped pay for her hospitalization. The doctor said Luo Jing has a slight concussion, but it's not a big problem. Uncle, you don't need to worry too much."

I called the workshop last night, but no one answered... Could you come over today? We're in surgical ward 203.

Last night, everyone was at home helping to chop vegetables. Da Ya was making pickles, and the workshop was empty, so no one heard the phone ring.

"Okay, I'll be right there!" Luo Baiwan hung up the phone and rushed to the hospital.

When Liu Donglan returned to Luo Jing's ward after making the phone call, Hu Li came in carrying some things.

Liu Donglan was horrified when she saw her. "What are you doing here?"

She didn't even bother to address Hu Li as "Teacher Hu," because Liu Donglan felt that Hu Li was unworthy of being a teacher and there was no need to be polite to her.

Hu Li deliberately approached her older cousin under the guise of a home visit. Her intentions were not with her older cousin, but with her brother-in-law. Shameless!

After being chased away by the younger sister on her first visit, she began to be wary of this person, but she couldn't guard against Luo Jing's treacherous heart at all.

The night before last, her older cousin specifically asked her to take good care of Luo Jing.

She readily agreed, but on her very first day in the city, Luo Jing tripped and fell, breaking her head.

She let her older cousin down!

And then there's Hu Li, her legs are really long.

She and her younger sister came to the city, and she immediately followed them.

Having already failed her older cousin's trust, Liu Donglan was on high alert, determined not to let Luo Jing be abducted by Hu Li again.

Hu Li casually placed the things on the bedside table, sat down in front of the bed, and explained nonchalantly, "I came to see Luo Jing. After all, she used to be my student, and we have a good personal relationship."

Liu Donglan gave a cold laugh and finally voiced what she had kept hidden in her heart for a long time.

"Teacher Hu, there's something I've always wanted to ask you: you and Luo Jing are such good friends, so why didn't you try to help her when her grades were so bad?"

You even went to Luo Jing's home for a home visit. My aunt and uncle were both there, but I didn't see you talk to them about Luo Jing's studies.

You went to see my older cousin out of the blue. How could you, as her older sister, talk about Luo Jing's grades?

Since you and Luo Jing are such good friends, you must know that my older cousin dropped out of school.

You're asking her to share her learning experiences? You're practically bullying her!

I just want to ask, my older cousin has absolutely no connection to you, what did she do to deserve this bullying?

Hu Li forced a smile, but in her heart she wanted nothing more than to beat Liu Donglan up.

"Your aunt and uncle aren't very educated, and they can't understand what I'm saying. So is there a problem with me finding someone who can understand to explain things to them?"

Liu Donglan sneered inwardly, "So that's how it is. Well then, dear Teacher Hu, did you tell my older cousin about Luo Jing's studies? I didn't see anything the whole time that day!"

Hu Li was speechless after being rebuked; she had never known that Liu Donglan was so quick-witted.

She was already thinking about how to see Xie Chang'an that day; Luo Ning was just a stepping stone for her.

She didn't actually go to the Luo family for a home visit!

However, Liu Donglan is Liu Chunsheng's sister, and she can't afford to break ties with her now.

"Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean I didn't say it. After my home visit, Luo Jing came to study in the city. Isn't that the best evidence? But I'm quite surprised that you were also able to study in the city. I think you were probably sent here along with her."

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately covered her mouth with a look that said, "I misspoke, please don't mind," but inwardly she was extremely pleased with herself.

Liu Donglan's expression changed slightly. She looked down at the sleeping Luo Jing, her mouth agape as if she had zipped up her lips.

"Little brat, I don't believe I can't handle you!" Hu Li felt much better and warmly inquired about Luo Jing's condition.

Liu Donglan responded half-heartedly, somewhat listless.

Luo Jing was successfully woken up by Hu Li's noisy chatter. She opened her eyes and saw Hu Li looking blank. "What are you doing here?"

Her head was throbbing. What was wrong? Suddenly, she saw Liu Donglan chasing her and causing her to fall.

Liu Donglan finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Luo Jing wake up.

"I've come to see you, Luo Jing. Are you feeling any better?" Hu Li held Luo Jing's hand, her face full of undisguised concern.

As long as she can hold onto Luo Jing, she can infiltrate the Luo family. Even if Luo Jing comes to the city, she will not give up.

It's only a little over an hour's drive; she can accept that distance.

I'd go to great lengths to win Xie Chang'an's heart.

"I don't know you, get out!" Luo Jing pulled her hand back and yelled at Liu Donglan.

"You threw me to the ground yesterday, and today you let strangers in. Are you trying to kill me so I can inherit my family's fortune?"

Liu Donglan was dumbfounded. What was going on?

Hu Li's mind went blank. Luo Jing didn't recognize her; her key to getting in the door had vanished...

No, this is not allowed, how can this be allowed!

It took her almost a semester to build a good relationship with Luo Jing. She spent money and time, and she couldn't let her efforts go to waste.

"Luo Jing, I'm your homeroom teacher from when you were studying in town. My name is Hu Li!"

I used to take you to my house often, buy you delicious food, and give you pocket money..."

Liu Donglan stared at Hu Li in disbelief. This woman was scheming and utterly shameless!

This woman actually did so much research to break up her older cousin and brother-in-law!

Luo Jing looked at Hu Li suspiciously, confirming that she did not recognize the person.

Hu Li was stunned. She grabbed Liu Donglan and dragged her in front of Luo Jing. "Do you know her? She's your sister. You're only a month older than her. You're the one who told me this. She's not my student. I didn't even know how old she was."

"I know her. Isn't she Liu Donglan, Luo Ning's lackey?" Luo Jing sneered.

Suddenly her eyes flickered, and she looked at Hu Li as if she were looking at prey.

Hu Li's heart skipped a beat. What kind of trouble was this brat up to?

"I'm broke right now, give me a hundred, or you're a liar!" Luo Jing said to Hu Li with an air of righteous indignation.

That brat is so arrogant! She throws around a hundred dollars when she only makes a few dozen dollars a month.

Even though Hu Li was furious, she had no choice but to accept the test: "I left in a hurry, and I only had fifty on me, is that alright?"

She pulled out a few ten-yuan bills and stuffed them into Luo Jing's hand, earnestly advising, "Luo Jing, Luo Ning sent you to study in the city for your own good. If you have any problems with your studies, you can call me."

"Damn it, she was doing this for my own good. She knew I was a terrible student, yet she still sent me to a high school in the city. She just wanted to kill me..."

"Bang!" The door was pushed open with great force, startling Luo Jing so much that she couldn't finish her sentence.
