When Liu Lingling dragged Liu Jielan past Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingye, who were skewering the vegetables, Liu Lingling silently pulled Liu Jielan forward. Thanks to inertia, Liu Jielan tripped forward and fell on Xiao Lingyu.

Xiao Lingyu was working with skewers and leeks. The skewers were sharp. Due to the sudden pressure from behind, her hand that held the skewer was knocked aside. She quickly pulled back and accidentally sent Liu Jielan falling to the ground. If Xiao Lingyu didn’t do that, she might have injured herself or her little brother.

“Ah!” Liu Jielan shouted.

“What’s wrong with you?” Liu Lingling immediately scolded Xiao Lingyu, “How can you push people like that?” She was too busy interrogating Xiao Lingyu that she forgot to help Liu Jielan. Liu Jielan hit the ground with her butt. She grimaced in pain.

Xiao Lingyu frowned. She put down the things in her hand and helped Liu Jielan up. She asked, “Miss, I’m sorry. Are you okay?”

Liu Lingling finally realized she still needed to care about her stooge. “Sister Lan Lan, are you okay?”

Liu Jielan’s palms were scratched and bleeding. Liu Lingling shouted, “Sister Lan, you’re hurt!” Then, she turned to Xiao Lingyu and scolded her. “What is wrong with you? How can you push Sister Lan Lan and injure her like this? Sister Lan, don’t worry. I will seek justice for you.”

Liu Jielan glanced at her injured hands and frowned as she looked at Liu Lingling, who she had always considered her good friend. Liu Jielan stood up and sighed, “I’m fine. Forget it. Let’s go.”

When Liu Lingling heard Liu Jielan wanted to let this go, she was shocked. Then she huffed indignantly. “Sister Lan Lan, how can we leave just like that? You fell accidentally and brushed against her, but she pushed you with such force that you got hurt.”

Xiao Lingyu frowned. “Then what do you want me to do?” She thought this woman was very unreasonable. On the surface, she seemed to care about her Sister Lan Lan, but Xiao Lingyu noticed the envy and hatred in her eyes. ‘I don’t even know this woman, so why would she have those emotions against me?’

Liu Lingling’s goal was to get the attention of Gu Ziye and the others. Her goal was achieved. She noticed the men had put down their work and were walking over.

“Lingyu, what happened?” They were not that far from Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingye. Xiao Lingyu and Xiao Lingye worked in the skewers away from the grill to avoid the smoke. Everyone was working with their heads lowered. They only realized something had happened when they heard Liu Lingling’s loud complaints.

Xiao Lingyu shook her head. “It’s nothing. I accidentally pushed this lady down.”

Zheng Haiyang narrowed his eyes and looked around. He immediately asked in puzzlement, “Lingyu, you were just making skewers. Why would you suddenly push this young lady?” It made no sense.

Xiao Lingyu was confused too. “Actually, it was an accident. When I was skewering the vegetables, someone fell on me from behind, so I pushed back in reflex. Before I knew what happened, this girl beside the young lady accused me of pushing her friend down. She said I was being malicious.”

Qian Yifan asked, “Miss Liu, the road is flat and wide. Why would you fall? And so coincidentally on Lingyu?”

When Liu Lingling heard how close the men were to Xiao Lingyu, the envy within her burned stronger. However, when she heard Qian Yifan’s question, her heart skipped a beat. ‘Not good.’

Before Liu Jielan could speak, Liu Lingling interrupted, “Young Master Qian, Sister Lan Lan… broke her shoes, and she must have tripped because of that!” After spending so much time with Liu Jielan, Liu Lingling knew Liu Jielan valued her face a lot. Therefore, she would go along with the excuse Liu Lingling had provided her.
