Chapter 209 The date was ruined
Xiaomai went back to work at Qingtian, and at night she and He Lingting returned to the villa halfway up the mountain. Grandma Jiang had almost recovered, so she was taken in by Lu's parents to live with them in their old age.
Every weekend, Xiaomai sometimes goes to the old house with He Lingting to visit grandparents, and sometimes goes shopping with Xi Yan and makes appointments. Her little life is indeed quite fulfilling.
It was another weekend. He Lingting had something to do and went out early. Xiaomai wanted to sleep in, but Xi Yan called. The ringing of the phone made Xiaomai lose the mood to sleep. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who is it?"
"Hey, what time is it? Why are you still sleeping?" Xi Yan's anxious voice came over.
Xiaomai moved the phone away from her ear and immediately became much more awake. "I finally have a weekend, can't you just let me sleep a little longer?"
"Why are you sleeping? Come out and play! You are a very busy person now, and I don't see you very often."
"Okay then! Where are you now?"
"In the department store."
"Okay, you go shopping first. I'll be there at noon and treat you to a meal!" Xiaomai couldn't sleep either, so she got up and said as she went to the bathroom.
"Great, then I'll go around and see how I can charge you for lunch." Xi Yan said jokingly.
"Okay, I'll go wash up then."
"Go quickly, go quickly." After Xi Yan said that, they hung up the phone. Xiaomai packed up, changed into casual clothes, and went out with a small backpack.
The driver came up to her and asked, "Madam, are you going out? Let me take you there!"
"Okay! Thank you!" Then Xiaomai told the driver the address, and the driver drove away.
When they arrived at the department store, Xiaomai asked the driver to go back first. She took out her cell phone and called Xiyan, "Yanyan, I'm at the entrance of the department store, please come out!"
"Okay, I'll be right out."
Xiaomai sat by the flower bed at the entrance of the department store, playing with her mobile phone while waiting for Xi Yan, unaware that danger was quietly approaching her from behind.
Behind a haystack not far from Xiaomai, a ragged beggar with a knife in his hand slowly approached Xiaomai. He just raised the knife and was about to hit Xiaomai's neck.
"Xiaomi, be careful behind you." Xi Yan had just run out of the building, looked around, and just as she found Xiaomai, she saw this thrilling scene. She was so scared that her heart almost jumped out.
The beggar was startled when he heard the shout and his hand paused. When Xiaomai heard the shout, he immediately half-crouched down and avoided the beggar's knife.
The beggar also missed his target due to inertia, and staggered forward. Xiaomai turned sideways and looked at the beggar with sharp eyes, "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"
"Your man caused my family to be destroyed and I have nothing left. I won't take your life. I just want to force you to ask He Lingting to return my things to me. If you know what's best for you, just obey me. I promise not to hurt you."
As soon as the beggar's voice came out, Xiaomai recognized it as He Tianxiang. He actually ended up like this, reduced to the level of a beggar. This person was used to being idle, and after leaving the influence of the He and Yin families, he didn't even have the ability to survive. It was so sad.
Xiaomai shook her head, "He Tianxiang, it turned out to be you. Uncle didn't take your life, but you didn't cherish it. You know very well that you are not a child of the He family at all. Whatever the He family has should be yours?"
"Don't tell me those useless principles. I want to ask He Lingting for money now and exchange you for me. It's okay if you don't want to exchange. He Lingting can't do it, so just follow me!" He Tianxiang truly and perfectly interpreted the meaning of "A dog will always eat corpses".
As soon as He Tianxiang finished speaking, Xiao Mai kicked him in the mouth, "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. Didn't I tell you that if you say bad things about uncle again, I won't let you go."
He Tianxiang fell to the ground after being kicked. Xiaomai scolded him condescendingly. Xi Yan came to Xiaomai and asked, "Who is this?"
"Big monkey." Xiaomai said directly.
"Oh, it's the former eldest master of the He family! Um, that's not right. Grandpa He has already stated that he is not from the He family." Xi Yan said disdainfully.
He Tianxiang looked at the two little girls mocking him one after another, his eyes turned red, he suddenly jumped up, wielded a knife and went straight to Xi Yan. Although Xiaomai was sharp-eyed and stepped forward to stop them in time, He Tianxiang was really crazy and used all his brute force.
Xiaomai had some martial arts skills, but Xiyan did not. She had never seen such a scene before and was so frightened that she was stunned on the spot. Because she failed to dodge in time, the tip of the knife scratched her arm. Fortunately, the scratch was not deep and only broke the skin, but blood still seeped out.
Xiaomai felt distressed when she saw Xi Yan injured, "You bastard, you dare to hurt my friend, I will make sure you never return today." Then Xiaomai punched and kicked He Tianxiang until he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
At this time, some onlookers came around. Some people who didn't know the reason sympathized with the weak and spoke up for the beggar, "Girl, how can you be so cruel? Do you have to do this to a beggar? You look like a girl from a rich family, how come you don't have any sympathy at all?"
"You, stop talking nonsense if you don't understand. He was the one who hurt me with the knife first." Xi Yan couldn't stand others talking about Xiaomai, so she retorted and raised her injured arm to show everyone.
Xiaomai was too lazy to pay attention to them. She was more worried about Xiyan's arm. Her eyes were red and she cried, "Yanyan, does it hurt? I'll take you to the doctor now."
"It does hurt a little, but I feel it's okay. It's just a skin injury. What should we do with him?" Xi Yan pointed at He Tianxiang lying on the ground.
"Let me call my uncle and ask him to call someone to handle it!" Xiaomai said after thinking for a while.
Xiaomai picked up the phone and called He Lingting. He Lingting was talking to someone else. Seeing that it was the little girl, he immediately picked up the phone, "Hello, are you up?"
"Uncle, it's already so late and you still don't get up? I'm in trouble." Xiaomai said aggrievedly.
"What's wrong?" He Liting smiled secretly in his heart. Last time the little girl said that she was in trouble, she beat up her classmates and needed to find her parents to go to school. She said the same thing again today. Which unlucky guy is she going to deal with again?
"I, I beat a beggar down, and he couldn't get up. I don't know if he is dead or alive."
"Ah! Are you okay? Why are you begging for money?"
"The beggar is He Tianxiang. He tried to hurt me with a knife, but failed and instead scratched Xi Yan. I have to take Yan Yan to see her wounds. Can you get someone to deal with the scene?" Xiaomai explained the situation clearly.
He Lingting felt a little scared and stood up in an instant, "Baby, are you okay? Where are you now? I'll be there soon."
"Okay, wait there and don't move. Protect yourself."
"Department store, but Yanyan is injured."
"It's okay, Bai Chen will be there later."
"OK then!"
After the two hung up the phone, He Lingting called Bai Chen again, then told others something, picked up the car keys and left quickly.
Xiaomai's good date with friends was ruined like this.
