Chapter 253: Chapter 253: Making a Change
Even though she had already said these words, the person in front of her still seemed very worried.
Xiaokai raised his hand and gently patted her back.
"No matter what, Mom, I will definitely be by your side, and no matter what, I will listen to you," he said.
Hearing this, the woman’s heart naturally became happier and happier.
She also knew that if things continued to develop in this way, everything would definitely get better and better.
Standing next to her, Liu Zheng immediately spoke up.
"Yes, seeing that you were willing to stand up and refute her with us, I’m really very happy. You’ve finally taken this brave step."
"If some people bully those they perceive as weak and fear those they see as strong, she probably thought you were easy to bully before, which is why she treated you that casually. I hope you can change and become stronger."
After hearing this, how could the person in front of them not be clear on what to do?
Right then, she nodded gravely.
"Rest assured, after this incident, I have indeed changed and now know what I should and shouldn’t do," she said.
"From now on, I will definitely handle everything well, so there’s no need for you to worry."
With her words, everyone really had nothing to worry about anymore.
Not only that, but Xiaokai, seeing his mom becoming happier, also showed a smile on his face.
"I’m also glad that we had already finished eating most of the food when he came, so it wasn’t a waste of the dishes," he said.
Upon hearing this, Li Yanling and Liu Zheng couldn’t help but chuckle.
Right, they hadn’t thought about it from that angle before.
Fortunately, they had nearly finished the food when the old woman appeared. If it had been overturned before they had hardly eaten, they would have felt very distressed.
"I haven’t even realized it until you mentioned it; it looks like we did finish eating before she turned up and flipped our table."
"This shows that even Heaven is secretly helping us, favoring us over her," Liu Zheng said, laughing.
And the people next to him immediately nodded.
Although the incident seemed rather unpleasant.
Yet somehow, they had indeed experienced change.
And to some extent, they had finally resolved such a matter.
At the beginning, they were worried that everything might become complicated.
Fearing that the old lady might continue to make trouble.
But after having this clear conversation, it seemed unlikely she would have the gall to do it again.
She might even behave more quietly in the future.
Liu Zheng naturally did not want her to continue to harass Xiaokai or Li Yanling, to disturb their lives.
That’s why he had spoken harshly just before.
But now, realizing that he had said these things in front of them, he felt somewhat embarrassed.
He awkwardly raised his hand to scratch the back of his head.
After a while, he mustered the courage to ask.
"There’s a question I want to ask you both."
Upon hearing this, the two people in front of him were naturally puzzled, wondering what he meant.
Soon, their gazes shifted in the direction of Liu Zheng.
"What’s wrong, if you have something to say, just say it."
"Yeah, what exactly happened?"
And Liu Zheng also looked as if he wanted to speak but hesitated. His heart was filled with uncertainty, unsure whether he should speak out.
The main reason was that he felt a bit embarrassed.
After a long while, he finally mustered the courage to speak up.
"Actually, I want to ask you about the things I just said. You don’t think I sounded a bit scary, do you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned, not knowing why he would suddenly bring this up.
Seeing the two people frozen in place, silent, he then reminded them more clearly.
"Just now I even said I wanted to poison her to death, but you mustn’t believe that, okay? I was only joking, just trying to scare her. I could never do something so heinous."
"Although I really do dislike her, and I don’t want her to disturb your peaceful life, I could never do such a foolish thing."
To think it was about something like this, the two people didn’t really mind too much.
They just gave a slight smile and said,
"Oh, no worries, we didn’t take it seriously, and we didn’t really believe it at the time. We just thought you were speaking up for us."
"That’s right, mainly because without using some harsh methods, it would be impossible to scare her, I think your approach is quite good."
Seeing that the two people seemed to completely agree with everything he had said, Liu Zheng finally felt that he had nothing to worry about.
He had been somewhat worried before.
Now that everything had been resolved, he couldn’t possibly stay here any longer. He also wanted to continue developing new medicines in earnest.
The main reason was that, although he really wanted to develop a relationship with Li Yanling, there didn’t seem to be an opportunity right now, especially since Xiao Kai seemed to always be around.
So, better to wait.
Soon he gave them a serious reminder.
"If that old lady comes again, you should know what to do by now. No matter what, you cannot show weakness to her, otherwise, she will definitely become more audacious."
"You must be tough with such people, otherwise, you won’t be able to achieve any effect."
After hearing this, how could the two people in front of him not know what to do?
At that moment, they obediently nodded their heads.
"Rest assured, we know exactly what to do."
"Yeah, don’t worry about it. We’ve had plenty of experience by now, we definitely know."
After hearing this, Liu Zheng really had nothing else to worry about, and then he finally left the place.
Soon after, he returned to his clinic, ready to continue his research on the development of pills.
The issue had been resolved and a weight was finally lifted from his heart.
And he knew that he might face many troubles in the future.
So, he had to make some key items.
Perhaps at a critical moment, they could even save his life.
Or possibly help him through a tough situation.
He understood this principle well.
So there could be no negligence.
