The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 219: I Don’t Want Him to Have It Too Easy

"Brother, since you’re here, why don’t you rest for a bit? Ning Xiuyuan’s brother is also having surgery in this hospital. I’ll go check on him."

"Huh? Aren’t you going to stay with me? But I want you to stay with me." Qiao Jiezhe looked at her pitifully.

Qiao Qiqi was amused by his cute expression, "I’ll be back soon."

"Make sure you keep your distance from that Ning Xiuyuan kid!" Qiao Jiezhe didn’t want his sister to be taken away so soon by a wolf pup.

"I know!" Qiao Qiqi wasn’t really a child; she knew what her brother was worried about. She felt her brother’s concern was a bit unnecessary. She didn’t like Ning Xiuyuan; she just wanted to help him escape a tragic fate from a past life.

Qiao Qiqi and Rong Yuan walked out of the hospital room. The girl’s expression turned cold, no longer as gentle and relaxed as she was with her brother.

"If you trust me, let me handle the owner of the jade store." Rong Yuan was worried Qiao Qiqi might act impulsively. Given her protective stance toward Qiao Jiezhe, he feared she might cause serious trouble.

"Okay, but I don’t want him to have it too easy!" Qiao Qiqi’s voice carried a hint of hostility.

"Don’t worry, once he’s in, I’ll have people ’take good care’ of him." Rong Yuan assured her.

Only then was Qiao Qiqi satisfied, "You can take away the jade you bought."

"Sure, I’ll transfer the money to your account."

Qiao Qiqi nodded.

"Are you selling the rest of your jade too?"

"Sell everything, not leaving a single piece."

"Are you short on money?" Rong Yuan frowned. The way she was eager to sell off the jade, it seemed like she was in great need of money.

"Yes, I’m planning to acquire Tianxiang Entertainment, so of course I’m short." Qiao Qiqi replied calmly.

Rong Yuan, "?"

"You said you’re going to acquire Tianxiang Entertainment?"

"Yes."

"You’re interested in the entertainment industry?" Rong Yuan felt the girl in front of him wouldn’t be such a person.

"No, I want to protect someone!"

Qiao Qiqi looked at him straightforwardly. If the entertainment industry was so chaotic, even if she removed one Yuan Tianshen, there would still be Li Tianshen and Yang Tianshen. In that case, she would personally create a clean environment in the industry for him, allowing him to do what he loves and be himself freely.

Rong Yuan looked at her in amazement, suddenly feeling envious of the person she cared about so much. To protect her brother, she would go all out. To protect the person she wanted, she would acquire a company.

Does it mean that as long as someone is in her heart, she’ll do anything for them?

"I still need to visit my friend’s brother. Goodbye, Mr. Rong." Qiao Qiqi said, turning to leave.

Rong Yuan watched the girl’s departing silhouette for a while before turning away himself.

His heart had been deeply shaken today.

When Qiao Qiqi found Ning Xiuyuan, the surgery had already begun. He and Ning’s mother were waiting outside the operating room.

Upon seeing Qiao Qiqi, Ning Xiuyuan’s eyes lit up instantly. He stood up and quickly walked over to the young girl, looking at her with a hint of nervousness. "If my brother knew you came to see him, he’d be very happy."

"Did you change the doctor?" Qiao Qiqi nodded at Aunt Ning.

"We changed as you suggested. The doctor came from the Capital City, very professional." Ning Xiuyuan now listened to Qiao Qiqi a lot; since she said it, he naturally acted immediately.

"Yes, the previous doctor wasn’t very reliable. Surgery is a big deal; it’s better to be careful."

Ning Xiuyuan nodded repeatedly.

Qiao Qiqi came over to greet Ning’s mother, who held her hand with a face full of gratitude. She looked at her son, "A Yuan, go get us something to drink."
