Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

Chapter 1772: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (15)

Before Xiao Ying left the Duke’s house, Liu Yiyi had not shown any unhappiness toward her nor had she tried to chase her away.

In front of the Duke and his wife, she had even said that she would treat Xiao Ying as her older sister and would get along well with her.

Later, she used a trick to make herself unwell and had even bribed the monk.

It made the Duke think that Xiao Ying had really jinxed her.

But just now, she had been so angered by Xiao Ying that she had said the true thoughts in her heart.

She did not like Xiao Ying and wanted her to get out!

The Duke’s wife was a smart person. Because she had voiced out her thoughts, the Duchess would definitely understand her true motive!

Liu Yiyi wanted to tear Xiao Ying’s despicable face apart!

A trace of hatred flashed past Liu Yiyi’s eyes after being slapped by the Duke’s wife.

In the Duke’s wife’s heart, she had probably never treated her as her biological daughter. Only Xiao Ying was.

How could she not compare to Xiao Ying?

“What happened?” The Duke returned home just then.

When she saw the Duke, Liu Yiyi’s eyes immediately filled with tears and she called out pitifully, “Daddy.”

The Duke walked forward and frowned when he saw Liu Yiyi’s red and swollen face with tears. “What happened?”

Xiao Ying jumped into the Duke’s arms. In this family, she realized that only the Duke doted on her.

The Duke’s wife was completely bewitched by that vixen Xiao Ying!

The Duke glanced at Xiao Ying. Seeing that the house was in chaos the moment she returned, and thinking about how she had left without a word, making the Madam anxious and unable to sleep the entire night, he had some opinions toward Xiao Ying.

“Ying’er, you came back to visit your mother, right? Are you used to living outside? Although you’re not staying in the Duke’s house anymore, you should call more often!”

The Duke’s words were very tactful, but Xiao Ying understood what he meant.

The Duchess looked at her husband. He had said that he would treat his two daughters fairly, but he had changed. She was slightly disappointed. “I plan to let Ying’er move back. I’m worried about her being alone outside.”

Liu Yiyi trembled in the Duke’s arms, looking like she was going to have a relapse if Xiao Ying returned.

The Duke patted her shoulder and comforted her.

“Dear, let’s talk in our room!”

The Duke’s wife ignored him and held Xiao Ying’s hand tightly.

Xiao Ying had not come back to cause trouble in the Duke’s palace. She said to the Duchess, “Mom, I’ve been staying in the palace recently. Everything is fine.”

What?!

Xiao Ying was staying in the palace?

Liu Yiyi gritted her teeth when she heard that.

After what happened in the morning, how could Long Ming still let her stay in the palace?

No matter how the Duke’s wife asked her to stay, Xiao Ying did not agree to it.

However, she still agreed to stay for dinner at the Duke’s palace.

After dinner, Xiao Ying received a call.

“Really? Granny will wake up soon?”

Liu Yiyi, who was eating fruits, was slightly stunned when she heard Xiao Ying’s words.

The old lady was about to wake up?

It couldn’t be. She had calculated the time accurately when the old lady had fallen into the lake. Given her age,she wouldn’t die, but neither would she wake up.

How could she be waking up?

Liu Yiyi looked at the smile on Xiao Ying’s face and started to panic.

Her original plan was for the old lady to not wake up for a while. Xiao Ying would be despised by Long Ming and she would take the chance to interfere in their relationship.

But now, because the old lady was going to wake up, everything was going to be ruined!

After Xiao Ying finished the call, she glanced at Liu Yiyi and a beautiful smile appeared on her face. “Sister Yiyi, Granny is about to wake up. At that time, we’ll know who pushed her into the lake!”

“Yes, we will know soon.” Liu Yiyi’s smile was a little stiff.

Perhaps it was because the old lady was about to wake up that Xiao Ying seemed to be in a good mood. After bidding farewell to the Duke and Duchess, she prepared to leave.

Liu Yiyi came out of the villa. “Are you going to the hospital?”

Xiao Ying nodded.

“I’m going to the hospital too. Let’s go together!”

…

At the hospital.

Xiao Ying and Liu Yiyi arrived at the granny’s ward.

The old lady’s doctor was doing a checkup on her.

Liu Yiyi suddenly saw that the index finger of the granny’s hand that was under the blanket was bending slightly.

Liu Yiyi’s heart jumped to her throat.

She shut her eyes before looking again.

The granny’s fingers were still moving.

Xiao Ying saw it too. She asked the doctor, “Will the granny wake up soon?”

“She’ll wake up by tomorrow morning at the latest.”

…

Midnight.

In the hospital’s surveillance room.

Xiao Ying was eating supper on the sofa. Seeing that the man sitting in front of the monitor was as still as a statue, she took a snack and walked over.

She stood behind the man and fed him the snack.

“Take it away. I’m not eating it.” He did not have the habit of eating dessert at night.

Xiao Ying looked at the man’s cold and handsome face and could not help poking him with her finger. “Are you still angry about me bringing Granny out of the palace?”

Long Ming leaned back against the chair and pressed his fingers between his eyebrows. “Am I such an unreasonable person?”

He naturally understood that if Liu Yiyi wanted to harm the old lady, she would have entered the palace to harm her even if Xiao Ying had not brought her out of the palace.

“I’m still quite happy that you chose to believe me.”

The man looked at Xiao Ying like she was a fool and his deep eagle eyes narrowed. “Although you’re ruthless and full of lies, you’re not cruel enough to hit the old, weak, women or children!”

Xiao Ying stuffed the dessert that he refused to eat into her mouth. After eating it, she could not help but sigh. “Why can’t I be happy when I hear you say this? It’s like a stone is weighing down on my heart. Fortunately, this dessert is very sweet and makes me feel better.”

Long Ming glanced at her. “Is it very sweet?”

“You don’t eat sweets anyway. Whether it’s sweet or not has nothing to do with you.”

The man chuckled softly before grabbing her wrist and pulling her onto his lap.

One of his hands was on her soft waist while the other grabbed her delicate chin, lifting her face up. “Let me try it.”

There were still people on duty in the surveillance room. Xiao Ying did not want to be watched like a monkey in a zoo. She put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him away. “Stop it.”

The man refused, his well-defined handsome face approaching her.

Just then, from the corner of her eye, Xiao Ying saw a figure appear on the screen.

“Long Ming, look.”

A slender figure wearing a nurse uniform was walking toward the old lady’s ward.

The nurse was wearing a mask and had her head lowered, so she could not see her face clearly.

However, her figure looked like Liu Yiyi’s.

Mo Tian’s voice sounded in Long Ming’s earpiece. “Your Majesty, shall we take action now?”

Long Ming narrowed his eyes and glanced at Xiao Ying. “Do you think it’s Liu Yiyi?”
