Luo Cuilan refused to leave, instead, she held onto Zhou Yuni and said, "Mom, hold on, let tell you, if Zhiming really got into the sa kind of trouble as last ti, once you get to the Police Station, it won’t be easy to get him out. I reckon there could be demands for compensation."
"This..." ntioning that money might be needed to solve the problem, Zhou Yuni paused.
Luo Cuilan looked at her and raised her eyebrows, "Do you have money for compensation?"
Zhou Yuni imdiately shook her head, "No."
Luo Cuilan smirked and gave her an idea, "I think you better call big brother. Who else in the provincial city does he know?"
Zhou Yuni suddenly realized, and imdiately instructed Luo Honglan, "Yes, yes, Hong Lan, call your big brother and tell him your second brother is in trouble, we are locking the door and heading down."
After hearing this, Luo Honglan hesitated for a mont, slow as she was, she too realized that if they called the big brother, it might just lead to a quarrel over money among the family mbers.
But she didn’t know how to handle such situations and was scared, so she eventually went downstairs to find a place to call Luo Zhiyong.
Luo Zhiyong, upon hearing Luo Zhiming was in trouble and needed his help over the phone, imdiately refused, "I don’t deal with Luo Zhiming’s problems, don’t involve ."
Luo Honglan was silent for a while on the phone, then said, "Big brother, please co over, if it’s really about compensation or sothing, I’ll think of a solution then."
"Didn’t you understand what I said? I said Luo Zhiming’s matter has nothing to do with ." Luo Zhiyong, upon hearing that this naive girl Luo Honglan even suggested funding it herself—and recalling Luo Zhiming had borrowed money from Luo Honglan before—said irritably, "It’s best you don’t get involved either, or it might end up affecting you as well."
Luo Honglan, unaware of what Luo Zhiming had done, felt Luo Zhiyong was being overly harsh, and directly said, "Big brother... isn’t this a bit too much? After all, he is our own brother, and now that he’s in trouble, how can you just ignore him?"
"If you want to know why, go to the Police Station and ask him yourself. Ask him why I don’t care," Luo Zhiyong didn’t bother explaining much to Luo Honglan, only saying, "If he dares say I’m being unreasonable, then I’ll talk."
"Big brother, this..."
Before Luo Honglan could finish, Luo Zhiyong had already disregarded the whole issue concerning Luo Zhiming, and a bit impatiently instructed Luo Honglan, "Also, if you decide to take care of Luo Zhiming’s matter I won’t stop you, but if Luo Zhiming gets out of the Public Security Bureau, tell mom not to bring him to my place. If I return and find him at ho, don’t expect mom and Luo Cuilan to stay at my place anymore."
"Big brother, what exactly did second brother do to you?" Luo Honglan really sensed sothing was off now.
Having been siblings for so many years, she knew what kind of person Luo Zhiyong was.
Over the years, it was always Luo Zhiyong who managed the household, to say he was soone who didn’t value family relationships, she wouldn’t believe.
But now Luo Zhiyong’s attitude toward Luo Zhiming was indeed much tougher, she couldn’t help but ask after a mont of reflection, "I don’t want to talk about it, go ask Luo Zhiming yourself."
After finishing, Luo Zhiyong angrily hung up the phone.
His colleague in the sa office, Huang Lin, seeing him fuming so greatly over a phone call and ntioning Luo Zhiming, knew there was trouble in Luo Zhiyong’s family again.
Huang Lin sighed, smiled, and asked, "What happened, did your younger brother cause so trouble again?"
"I don’t know, apparently, he was taken to the Police Station, probably did sothing foolish again," Luo Zhiyong slamd a notebook down on the desk and snapped, "Forget it, I’m not dealing with him."
Knowing Luo Zhiyong’s temperant, Huang Lin knew that though he said he wouldn’t care, he was still a brother after all and was sowhat worried.
He then reached for the phone, smiling, "I’ll make a call and ask around, see what happened exactly."
There’s no need, knowing what happened doesn’t concern ," Luo Zhiyong waved Huang Lin off, his expression darkened, "From the mont he dared to harm his sister-in-law and nephew, I had decided not to acknowledge this brother anymore."
Huang Lin had already dialed out, and while looking amused, he said, "No worries, I’m just casually asking to see what trouble he got into."
Huang Lin knew a lot of people; after a few calls, he quickly found out the details.
Knowing that Luo Zhiming was brought to the Police Station for trying to jump into a river, Luo Zhiyong was speechless with anger, wondering how he ended up with such a family mber.
Luo Zhiyong couldn’t help but worry about what exactly had happened to Luo Zhiming, but recalling Luo Zhiming’s past actions, he still chose not to get involved.
Back at ho, after Zhou Yuni and Luo Cuilan went downstairs, upon hearing from Luo Honglan that Luo Zhiyong wouldn’t co, Zhou Yuni imdiately cursed resentfully, "This Zhiyong is really becoming unreasonable nowadays, listening only to his wife, and now he won’t even care about such a serious matter involving his brother."
"That’s right, that’s the kind of ’good’ your son does," Luo Cuilan sarcastically sneered, and deliberately stirred trouble by murmuring inside Zhou Yuni’s ear, "Once grown up and married, he only cares about his wife, not even placing his own mother in his eyes, let alone caring about his siblings."
Zhou Yuni was indeed provoked by Luo Cuilan’s words, feeling angry, and she shouted at Luo Honglan, "Hong Lan, call him again, let talk to him. I want to ask what he really intends to do, whether he wants to cut ties with our side of the Luo family."
Fearful that Zhou Yuni might cause trouble and burden Luo Zhiyong, Luo Honglan conveyed her thoughts to Zhou Yuni, "Mom, I just called big brother, from his tone, it seems like second brother did sothing really excessive to them before, big brother wants to cut ties with him."
Zhou Yuni was taken aback and imdiately asked, "What? What excessive thing?"
Luo Honglan shook her head, "I don’t know, big brother refused to say, he said to ask second brother ourselves."
Zhou Yuni was silent, also guessing what it could be.
However, Luo Cuilan, holding a grudge against Luo Zhiyong for not willing to provide her with dical expenses and forcing her to go back, sched, "I think it’s just an excuse from big brother. Zhiming hasn’t been with them, it’s probably been a long ti since they last t, how could he have done anything excessive to them."
"Exactly, this Zhiyong is really too much," Zhou Yuni glanced at Luo Cuilan, was silent for a mont, and for so reason, in the end, she also didn’t insist on making Luo Zhiyong co back. She waved her hand at Luo Honglan and said, "Forget it, if he doesn’t co, he doesn’t co, we few will go by ourselves." (To be continued.
