Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 358 Tang Cao Sees Hope

Under Ning Lingshan’s repeated assurances, Tang Duo asks someone to send Ning Lingshan back. In fact, Tang Duo wants to stare at her. Now Ning Lingshan can’t leave Yanjing. It’s better for her not to contact others.

After getting home, she asks Tang Cao to her room. Lang Ruoxian is also at home today. They have a meeting.

“What should I do? What should I do?” After listening to Tang Duo, Tang Cao completely breaks down. He still hopes for luck these days but now he is disappointed.

He hugs Tang Duo and cries miserably. Tang Duo doesn’t know what to do. She can only pat her unlucky brother to show her comfort. Later, Lang Ruoxian can’t bear and picks Tang Cao up.

“You are too heavy. You’re pushing your sister.”

“Brother-in-law!” Tang Cao is indignant, “Do you still have sympathy...”

Lang Ruoxian glances at him and says, “You don’t deserve my sympathy. Why did you drink with people you don’t know? Why were you so drunk?”

Tang Cao is speechless. If he could do it again, even if Ning Lingshan knelt on the ground to beg him, he wouldn’t have gone drinking with her!

Tang Duo pulls Lang Ruoxian’s sleeve and says, “He’s so pitiful. Don’t bully him. Think of a way.”

Tang Duo and Tang Cao look at Lang Ruoxian eagerly. Lang Ruoxian ignores Tang Cao. He touches Tang Duo’s smiling face and says, “What we know now is Ning Lingshan’s one-sided words. We can’t guarantee that what she said is true.”

“Yes! Maybe she framed me.” Tang Cao agrees with this idea very much.

Lang Ruoxian looks at him and says mercilessly, “I mean there may be a problem with the process but that child is probably yours.”

It is a bolt from the blue. Tang Cao squats in the corner and cries.

“I think Ning Lingshan dared not to lie about it.” Tang Duo nods. Because when her baby is born, there will be results. Ning Lingshan is not a fool. She won’t take other people’s child and ask Tang Cao to carry the can. So that child should be Tang Cao’s.

“At present, there is no other way.” Lang Ruoxian ignores Tang Cao, who is crying, and says to Tang Duo, “Stare at Ning Lingshan until the child is born... It will depend on Mum’s meaning then.”

If Bai Susu recognizes Ning Lingshan, then Ning Lingshan will be the young mistress of the Tang Family. If Bai Susu doesn’t recognize Ning Lingshan, then the Tang Family will only have another grandson.

“What about Tang Cao...”

Hearing Tang Duo mention him, Tang Cao secretly raises his ears.

“He has no right to choose.” Lang Ruoxian sentences him to death directly, “If he wants to be with Fang Diandian, and the decision will be in Fang Diandian’s hands. If Fang Diandian is willing to forgive him and become a stepmother for his son, he will have no problem.”

It is impossible! Tang Duo and Tang Cao shake their heads at the same time.

“But I like Diandian!” Tang Cao cries bitterly and wants to die.

At this time, Lang Ruoxian’s phone rings. His expression changes after he hears something.

“Did Shu Sheng find anything?” Tang Duo asks in a hurry. She knows that Lang Ruoxian asked Shu Sheng to continue to check Ning Lingshan.

Lang Ruoxian squints and asks Tang Cao, “Do you remember what she did when you met Ning Lingshan in the hospital last time?”

“She...” Tang Cao thinks about it, “She went to Cardiology Department.”

Ning Lingshan’s brother has a serious heart attack. Ning Lingshan used to work hard to make money in order to operate on her brother.

“But isn’t her brother missing?” Tang Duo says strangely, “It’s said that he was abducted by traffickers.”

Lang Ruoxian looks at them, “Yes, her brother is missing. Why did she go to the hospital and tell the doctor to inform her if there is a suitable heart. More than that, Shu Sheng also found out that she usually pays attention to many organ forums at home and abroad. Yesterday she left a message on the forum and talked with netizens.”

“Her brother is not lost.” Tang Duo’s eyes brighten.

Tang Cao also responds, “Then why did she say her brother is lost?”

“It seems we need to talk to her.” Lang Ruoxian glances at Tang Cao and says, “Maybe you will be saved.”

Suddenly seeing a glimmer of hope in despair, Tang Cao is so excited. He immediately goes to Ning Lingshan’s home with Tang Duo and Lang Ruoxian. Ning Lingshan doesn’t live in the hospital dormitory. Tang Duo arranges a small apartment for her. When they reach, Ning Lingshan is obviously crying and her eyes are red.

“Young Master Tang...” She is a little ashamed when she sees Tang Cao.

This is the first time they meet after that. Tang Cao tries to suppress his anger but he fails.

“Ning Lingshan, where is your conscience? I saved you! Without me, you would have been raped by Tang Rui. Later, Xiaopang took you to play with us. Everyone regarded you as a friend. But you even calculated on me.”

“I... I didn’t!” Ning Lingshan looks at Tang Duo as if wondering why she didn’t tell Tang Cao the truth.

Lang Ruoxian sits down on the sofa and says, “We don’t know the truth yet. You don’t have to pretend to be pitiful so soon.”

Ning Lingshan is stunned and her eyes flash, “Then... Why are Mr. Lang and Ms. Tang here...”

“My mother has a classmate who is a famous cardiologist in the world. General heart surgery is easy for him.” Tang Duo suddenly asks with a smile, “Is your brother seriously ill? Will he become a healthy person after the operation?”

Ning Lingshan’s eyes brighten when she hears the cardiologist. But her eyes soon dim again. She lowers her head and whispers, “What’s the use? I don’t know where my brother is.”

“Then why do you look for this information everywhere?” Tang Cao is anxious and blurts out, “Don’t quibble. We found that you pay attention to many forums in this area and often discuss with others. Besides, you went to the hospital that night. Didn’t you also go to the Cardiology Department?”

After hearing these words, Ning Lingshan is obviously afraid. She pretends to be calm and explains, “I... He is missing now but I still hope! In case he comes back suddenly! I’ve been used to it for so many years. I always search for the information. I promised my grandma that I would take good care of my brother.”

“That night the doctor told you that there was a proper heart for your brother and an operation could be arranged. When you got out of the doctor’s office, you dialed a number in this city from the hospital’s public telephone, which lasted for two minutes.”

Lang Ruoxian says faintly, “After that, you cried and left the hospital. Then you met Tang Cao at the door and invited him to go drinking with you.”

Ning Lingshan opens her eyes wide. She murmurs and wants to explain. Lang Ruoxian raises his hand and says, “Your brother was not abducted. He was caught, right?”

“You...” Ning Lingshan’s body shakes. If she doesn’t hold the table, she will fall down.

Tang Duo smiles. She thinks her man is too clever. She stands up and helps Ning Lingshan to sit down.

“Brother-in-law!” Tang Cao runs around the room as if he is crazy, “Brother-in-law, are you a devil? No! You’re an angel!”

Lang Ruoxian looks at him and motions him to shut up. Tang Cao sits down quietly at once and waits for the follow-up.

“Ning Lingshan, you have no background. I believe it’s true. And that’s why it’s true that you go to a doctor and look up information on the Internet.” Lang Ruoxian glances at the pale woman and says, “I’ll give you a chance to tell the truth. If your words satisfy me, I can consider helping you save your brother.”

“Really?” Ning Lingshan blurts out but her face is even worse. She covers her mouth and shakes her head desperately, “No... It’s not like this...”

Tang Duo frowns, “Don’t you admit it? Would you rather believe a man who threatens your brother’s life than us? Lingshan, how do you think? How has our family treated you for so long? What kind of person is Tang Cao?”

“Speak quickly!” Tang Cao is in a hurry. He wants to shake Ning Lingshan’s neck.

Ning Lingshan says nothing but cries. A few minutes later, she finally raises her head and stares at Lang Ruoxian, “I want you to promise that you will save my brother and operate on him, or I won’t say a word.”

“Okay!” Tang Cao shouts and he is pinched by Tang Duo.

Lang Ruoxian looks at her, “I can help you, but only if you didn’t actually sleep with Tang Cao. Otherwise, I will not help you. I will let you and your unborn child disappear forever.”

“I didn’t sleep with him!” Ning Lingshan shouts immediately.

Tang Cao feels that he sees heaven but the next second he hears Ning Lingshan say.

“Nothing happened to us but the child is his.”

Tang Cao, who just climbed up, falls into hell again. This time, he doesn’t care that Ning Lingshan is a pregnant woman. He grabs Ning Lingshan’s shoulders and shakes it hard.

“What do you mean? Didn’t we sleep? Why is the child mine?”

Tang Duo quickly pulls him back, “Calm down! Listen to her.”

Ning Lingshan cries and tells the whole thing.

A year ago, when she was a waiter in a nightclub, she inadvertently fell in the eye of Tang Ming. Tang Ming wanted to keep her but Ning Lingshan refused. She had her own bottom line. Then she left an impression on Tang Ming probably because of this thing.

“Not long later, I came home from work and found my brother missing. When I was about to call the police, I got a call from Tang Ming.” Ning Lingshan shivers and thinks of the nightmarish voice.

“Miss Ning, don’t worry, your brother is here.” Tang Ming asked her to go downstairs. There was a car waiting for her.

Ning Lingshan didn’t hesitate. She was ready to sleep with Tang Ming once.

“But when I got to the place, Tang Ming told me to find a way to meet the young master of the second branch of the Tang Family.” Ning Lingshan glances at Tang Cao and says, “He asked me to seduce you by any means and then marry you.”

Tang Ming threatens her with Ning Lingshan’s younger brother. If she doesn’t obey, he won’t give her brother medicine and let him die.

“When it’s done, I’ll find a doctor to operate on your brother and I’ll give you a lot of money.” Tang Ming knows that Ning Lingshan’s weakness is her younger brother. As expected, Ning Lingshan had no choice but to promise him.

“At the beginning, Xiaopang and I were designed to help you in the sanatorium?” Tang Cao asks inconceivably, “But at that time your injury was real. You were almost killed.”

Ning Lingshan smiles bitterly, “It was designed by Tang Ming and his son didn’t know it. It was another girl that night. Tang Ming replaced me. As for the injury, how could you believe it if it was not serious?”
