"But my cousin-in-law didn’t ask you to marry Li Aiguo, let alone that Li Aiguo’s wife was still Wang Yuncai back then. You married Li Aiguo later, so why bla my cousin-in-law? Even if you stopped being a military doctor, no one forced you to marry Li Aiguo, so it was your own choice. Who can you bla?"
And Lin Xiang was caught by Mu Xingzhi with Li Aiguo for the second ti. Who can she bla?
"No, it’s not like that. If it weren’t for Mu Xingzhi forcing to retire from the military, I wouldn’t be blad by my family, wouldn’t choose to work at the county hospital, and wouldn’t have t Li Aiguo."
As soon as Lin Xiang finished speaking, Xia Xiao was speechless. After all, it was Lin Xiang’s own choice, but she was unwilling to accept it and instead blad others.
"Li Aiguo seems to treat you quite well. You even have a child with him. Just settle down and live your life. Why keep resenting and hating others? Doesn’t it tire you out? And if you truly need to bla soone, you should bla yourself the most."
Xia Xiao then looked at Lin Xiang and said, "I wasn’t even aware you held a grudge against and my cousin-in-law. Given that, I will have to reconsider our cooperation with the zoo."
Xia Xiao wasn’t foolish; Lin Xiang harbored resentnt toward her and Mu Xingzhi. If they cooperated with Li Aiguo’s Security Company and Lin Xiang acted maliciously out of spite, the zoo was no joke.
Right there, Xia Xiao stood up and said to Zhao Jianjun and Li Aiguo nearby, "I think I need to reconsider our cooperation."
Zhao Jianjun and Li Aiguo were startled, and Chen Juan, who just ca out of the restroom, was also taken aback. It was supposed to be settled, so why reconsider?
Lin Xiang beca anxious and said to Xia Xiao, "Xia Xiao, you can’t do this."
Xia Xiao turned to look at Lin Xiang. "Why can’t I do this? It’s my family’s zoo. You hold a grudge against my cousin-in-law, blaming her for causing your career change, and you’ve even shifted that grudge onto . Now you co seeking cooperation, yet you express dissatisfaction. Do I look like a fool to you?"
Zhao Jianjun and Li Aiguo’s gazes turned toward Lin Xiang, and even Chen Juan internally blad her. She never liked Lin Xiang back on Sky Island, and now she simply loathed her.
Who would be so foolish? To co asking for a favor by discussing past affiliations and yet express resentnt toward the host—there must be a hole in her head.
Lin Xiang, pale-faced, looked at Xia Xiao and still tried to explain, "By speaking out, I show that I don’t hold a grudge. If I truly resented you, why would I say anything? Xia Xiao, you’re not so petty, right? I’m just venting a little and you..."
"Sorry, but I am that petty. There are dangerous animals in the zoo. You have a grudge and dissatisfaction toward us. How can I dare to entrust the zoo to you? If sothing were to happen, who could bear that responsibility?"
"Xia Xiao..." Lin Xiang beca more anxious.
At this point, Gao Jiaxing stopped paying attention to Lin Xiang’s explanations. He turned to Zhao Jianjun and Li Aiguo, "You’re my comrades-in-arms, and we have ford a bond training together on Sky Island. Building the zoo is just a matter of saying so for my wife and kids, but there are many troubles in actually doing it, not to ntion the safety hazards. I’m sure you’ve considered these issues in your security plan. You guys can go back. There’s no need for cooperation, but we will always be comrades, and I always welco you to co over for a drink."
Gao Jiaxing didn’t ntion Lin Xiang at all. To him, she was unimportant. But now that she was Li Aiguo’s wife and possibly harbored resentnt toward Xia Xiao and Mu Xingzhi, he wouldn’t cooperate with soone who could pose a safety risk to the zoo.
Zhao Jianjun and Li Aiguo moved their lips, wanting to say sothing but feeling disheartened. They finally said, "We’re very sorry for the inconvenience. We’ll go back first."
Gao Jiaxing nodded and saw them to the door.
At this mont, whether it was Zhao Jianjun or Li Aiguo, they had to hold back their anger at the Gao family’s ho.
They left helplessly, and Chen Juan and Lin Xiang followed behind with the children, quickly disappearing from the Gao family’s doorway.
Xia Xiao asked, "You won’t bla , will you?"
"No reason to. Lin Xiang can’t see the situation clearly." Feiteng’s lips curled in a sneer. They didn’t have to choose this particular Security Company; many companies wanted to cooperate with them.
"The safety of the zoo cos first. Xiaoxiao did the right thing," said Gao Jiaxing, relieved that Xia Xiao spoke out; it would have been terrible if they had gone through with the cooperation.
For now, Lin Xiang isn’t harboring a malicious intent, simply because she lacks the capability. But if they started cooperating, they’d have plenty of contact, and if Lin Xiang lost her mind, it could lead to a catastrophe. A fatal incident wasn’t sothing just anyone could bear the responsibility for, and ultimately it would be them who had to answer.
In the van that left, the atmosphere turned decidedly frosty. Lin Xiang hung her head, not daring to speak, while Li Aiguo stared at her with a sinister look.
