Seeing that the atmosphere had eased up, Master Xia said in a deep voice,""Shulan, I can give you a promise. "As long as Xu Fei treats me, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I'll make him pay for what he did today!”
These words were not fake, they were his true thoughts.
With Master Xia's temper, how could he tolerate being schemed against by others? After learning of Xu Fei's request, he had this idea.
However, after hearing this, Jiang Cheng shook his head and sneered.
Actually, there were many ways to ruin the plot between Xu Fei and the Xia family.
For example, letting Xu Fei treat Old Master Xia and creating some accidents midway, causing the treatment to fail.
Knowing that he had been deceived, Master Xia would definitely be furious and bear a grudge against Xu Fei.
But don't forget, Xu Fei had the protagonist halo.
Before the protagonist's halo was completely stripped away, his vitality was stronger than a cockroach! Even Jiang Cheng couldn't kill him directly, let alone the Xia clan.
As long as Xu Fei was alive, it was inevitable that the Xia family would notice something magical. At that time, Old Xia would probably have his hopes rekindled.
This plan had too many future troubles and did not conform to Jiang Cheng's idea of strengthening the Jiang family. Naturally, it would be passed.
If the treatment failed, it would be like this, let alone succeed.
If he could befriend a real godly doctor, Master Xia would definitely slap his own face and forget everything that he had said today.
After all, being old meant that one's position was not firm at times!
After plundering Xu Fei's inheritance, Jiang Cheng personally took action and cured Master Xia's illness.
This option had long been ruled out.
It didn't conform to the Jiang family's interests, and it didn't conform to the setting for the villain to treat the sick and save the lives.
More importantly…
There were still many big shots that even the Jiang family could not afford to offend that had yet to appear. At that time, with Master Xia's personality, he would probably switch sides easily!
Therefore, he had no choice.
Master Xia must die!
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng shook his head again. He felt that his killing intent had been a little heavy recently.
However, it was undeniable that this was indeed the simplest and most worry-free solution.
Jiang Cheng shook his head and sneered.
Even Master Xia, who thought he was a shrewd person, could not hold it in any longer.
He snorted coldly and asked directly,"Jiang Cheng, are you doubting my words?”
Hearing this, everyone from the Xia family frowned.
It was undeniable that the Jiang family was indeed powerful, but Master Xia was not at the point where a junior would doubt him.
"What's wrong? Did the Xia family come today to show off?”Cui Shulan frowned, and her entire body was filled with an unfriendly aura.
Everyone in the Xia family was shocked. Even Master Xia had no choice but to look away.
Now that he had a favor to ask of others, it was better to lower his attitude.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Xia Xinyu gritted her teeth and looked at Jiang Cheng pleadingly.
It had to be said.
To be able to make his once arrogant fiancée beg, this indeed made Jiang Cheng's mood very good.
However, he still rolled his eyes at Xia Xinyu!
Originally, he wanted to directly reject Master Xia's request, but after thinking about it, Jiang Cheng changed his mind and said,"Grandpa Xia, don't forget what I said just now.”
Hearing this, the eyes of everyone in the Xia family flashed as they caught the deeper meaning of these words.
"Of course! Don't you know my personality?" Master Xia promised immediately.
Jiang Cheng nodded.
After ignoring his mother's strange gaze, he said helplessly,"In that case, my Jiang family is not willing to be this evil person. On account of the many years of friendship between the Xia and Jiang families, I can agree to this! However…"
Master Xia nodded in satisfaction.
Villain Points 50!
Xia Xinyu thought that her words were effective and instantly smiled like a flower.
However, the appearance of the word "but" made their hearts thump.
As expected.
Jiang Cheng's next words confirmed their guesses.
"However, it's not enough for the Jiang family to have the initiative in the development of Jiangbei! I hope that the Xia family will withdraw from the project!”Jiang Cheng's words were shocking and sonorous.
"Little Cheng!"
Xia Zhijun shouted in dissatisfaction. After taking a deep breath, he forced a smile and said,""For the project in Jiangbei, the Xia family has invested a lot of manpower and resources. How could you say such a thing now that the project is about to be completed?”
The Xia family did not lack money either.
However, the hard work he had put in in Jiangbei over the years was not as simple as money.
It had been three years since the project in Jiangbei was finalized.
One had to know that just the amount of money that the Xia family spent to build connections was an eye-popping figure! Not to mention the favors he owed during this period of time!
The reason for this was because the Xia family and the Jiang family could sense it keenly.
Building a high-end community in Jiangbei, an area that was waiting to be developed, would not only have a promising future, but it would also raise the status of the family!
Because this was what the officials were happy to see. Perhaps it could even be the beginning of correcting the gap between the rich and the poor in Linjiang!
Now that they were about to complete the project, it was time to pick the peaches. How could they give it up?
Even the silent Cui Shulan felt that Jiang Cheng's request was a little too much.
However, she doted on her son so much that she did not express her opinion. She even ignored Master Xia's questioning gaze.
"Little Cheng, this request is too much.”Master Xia's face darkened, and his voice gradually sank.
Seeing this, Xia Xinyu wanted to show off her " charm " again. She looked at Jiang Cheng pitifully and said,""Jiang Cheng, for my sake…"
"Miss Xia, please have some self-awareness!”Before he could finish, Jiang Cheng interrupted him loudly.
