908: A Clean Woman
Cheng Shuyu was lost, "Then… What do we do now? Jing Jie doesn't only hate me, I'm sure that b*tch Jinqian has been talking bad about me to him. I really want to help you but I- I have no way of contacting Jing Jie and getting him to listen to me."
Di Anran's eyes turned cold as she silently cursed her mother for being such an idiot, but she still spoke nicely to Cheng Shuyu.
"Mother, do you have any idea how important this is to me? If I win it, I might be able to bring you back to my great-grandfather. It might not be the best time, but I can tell him that you were part of the reason why it succeeded. My father isn't even in the palace, but I know what he thinks. If my great-grandfather has already accepted you, why wouldn't my father do the same? Plus, Jing Lu is dead now. If Jing Xuean dies as well, you will be a woman with no past."
Cheng Shuyu immediately turned excited.
Jing Lu had died. The only thing that she regretted now was the marriage between her and Jing Xuean, as it had tainted her.
She really wanted to be a queen in Country B, even in her sleep.
She quickly asked, "Anran, you're such a smart girl. How would I be able to force Jing Jie out of the competition?"
"Just get the land settled first with my assistant and take the fastest plane to H City. You have been calling him on the phone previously, but this time you will meet him personally. Tell Jing Jie what you need. If he doesn't comply, I have another plan…"
"But that… That would be too…" Cheng Shuyu started hesitating.
"What?" Di Anran asked. "Do you want to become royalty here, or do you want my reputation to be destroyed?"
"Didn't you say that you have the best team? The opposing team only has Jing Jie, so would that cause your team to lose?"
"Of course not!" Di Anran was getting furious. "I just don't like taking risks. I will only accept success, not failures. I will get rid of everything that is in my way. Jing Jie is only a possibility that I will fail and I will never allow him to appear in the competition.
Cheng Shuyu's heart started racing. On one hand, she was worried that something might happen to her. On the other hand, she knew that if she did it, she would gain so much.
"Mother, we have no other choice. This is the only way to ensure that I will get first. It will depend on you, whether I'll be able to steady myself in the royal family.

An hour later, Cheng Shuyu walked into the rehabilitation center with Di Anran's assistant.
Cheng Shuyu found the doctor and told him that she wanted to meet Jing Xuean.
"The patient is still in recovery. We will usually stop visitation from family members so that they don't lose hope of surviving. I don't think it's a good idea for you to meet him."
Seeing how the doctor was hesitant, Cheng Shuyu was confused, as she didn't understand what was happening. However, Di Anran's assistant was prepared for it and gave an envelope filled with money to the doctor, saying, "We just wanted to check on his progress."
