Xu He was startled by Luo Zhiming’s words, and suddenly it seed she understood sothing. Could it be that Luo Zhiming said he was going to collect his salary, but actually went to et soone from the Luo Family, which is why the contradiction was so stark?
If that was really the case, it seed that Luo Zhiming really knew a lot, at least he might know that the child wasn’t his.
No wonder, then, the words that Luo Zhiming said just now, about how if anything happened to the child by mistake, he would risk his life.
Could it be that Luo Zhiming was planning to do sothing to her today?
Thinking this, Xu He couldn’t help shivering.
Although Luo Zhiming was considered useless, he was still a man, and if he really went berserk, she wouldn’t be able to stop him, not to ntion he had Zhou Yuni helping him. If the mother and son tead up against her, they might even kill her right there.
No, she had to leave.
But to avoid letting Luo Zhiming notice her suspicions, Xu He still maintained her composure and continued her original argunt, even daring to interject so probing to see if Luo Zhiming really t with people from the Luo Family.
She said, "That can’t be right. First, my uncle arranged a job for you, and also, Zhiming, don’t forget how those family mbers treated us. How your elder brother and dad, your sister, treated us. When we needed help, they didn’t care about us at all, why still associate with them?"
Although Luo Zhiming had beco sowhat more clear-headed after all that had happened, he was of course no match for Xu He when it ca to scheming; he actually didn’t realize Xu He’s intentions, still thinking that Xu He was in the dark.
He even scoffed, saying disdainfully, "Xu He, with the way you’re panicking, if soone didn’t know better, they might think you’re really afraid of eting our family."
"I..." Xu He’s eyes flickered, not knowing how to continue.
But Luo Zhiming didn’t say more. He just glanced at the bankbook in his hand and said sowhat indifferently, "Well, I won’t make a decision right now whether to stay or go. I’ll look around first and see if there’s a suitable house. If there is one, we can settle down here."
Now, Xu He wouldn’t stay here even if she was killed, but on the surface, she still had to go along with Luo Zhiming. She nodded her head and extended her hand towards him, "Alright, give the bankbook then, and I’ll keep it safe."
Seeing this, Luo Zhiming stepped back and put the bankbook into the inner pocket of his clothing, looking at Xu He, and said almost word by word, "I’ve thought about it, the bankbook will stay with . Later, give your ID card too. Since I’ll be going out to look for houses every day, I can make a deposit imdiately if I find a suitable one."
Xu He originally planned not to ask any questions, not to think about anything, just to take the money and leave. She didn’t expect Luo Zhiming to have such a move up his sleeve, keeping her bankbook from her. How could she leave then? Was she supposed to stay here and let Luo Zhiming deal with her?
Right then, she was so angry that she blurted out, "Luo Zhiming, what do you think you are? The money is from my uncle; what gives you the right to just take it as if it’s yours?"
Luo Zhiming, upon hearing this, wasn’t angry. He just looked at Xu He and said indifferently, "Xu He, when you married you beca my wife. I’ve given you everything without a second thought in my life. Are you trying to settle accounts with now because you plan on not living with anymore?"
"I..." Xu He truly didn’t expect that even a fool could be so shrewd when it ca to it.
Of course, Luo Zhiming acting like this was the happiest thing for Zhou Yuni. Smiling, she pulled on Luo Zhiming’s hand, even giving him a thumbs up, whispering, "Son, well done. We’ll keep the money, don’t give it to her. When we buy the house, it should be in our na."
Luo Zhiming was non-committal, he just waved towards Xu He and Zhou Yun, "Go and cook dinner."
Because of Luo Zhiming’s fierce behavior today, Xu He instinctively felt sothing was amiss and understood she couldn’t just force her way through. Even if Luo Zhiming couldn’t withdraw the money from the bankbook, if he were to tear it up or do sothing else to it, she wouldn’t be able to get any money right away.
In addition to Luo Zhiming’s strange behavior today, Xu He didn’t want to delve into whether or not he knew the whole story. She thought, as long as she could get the bankbook back, she could just leave.
Thus, on the surface, Xu He had to pretend to go along with things, inwardly calculating how to get that bankbook back.
At the sa ti, Luo Zhiming was no longer the fool he once was. The mont he saw the money in the bankbook, he understood that everything Luo Zhiyong and others had said was true, that Xu He really sold the child, and that’s how she got the money.
He was not foolish enough to believe that Xu He’s uncle would really give her such a large sum of money out of nowhere.
So, since Shuanzi was willing to give her such a large amount of money, it was obviously because Xu He had given him a son. Therefore, everything matched what Luo Zhiyong and the others had said.
The reason Luo Zhiming didn’t explode the mont he saw the money was that he was wary of another issue in his mind, which was what Luo Zhiyong told him when she left: no matter what, he had to coax out the news about Luo Cuilan from Xu He; otherwise, Luo Cuilan could really be walking a path that led to death.
But, because Luo Zhiming didn’t know how to ask Xu He and was afraid of scaring her off, he had been holding back and not asking. Yet, in his heart, he was thinking about how to make Xu He reveal Luo Cuilan’s whereabouts.
At this mont, Zhou Yuni was over the moon, just thinking of that large sum of money made her feel that the world was a wonderful place.
The only thing she had to consider was how to get out that large sum of money from Xu He’s hands and make that money truly belong to Luo Zhiming.
In this way, the three adults in the family, each with their own sches, managed to calmly have their dinner and then went to bed.
They rented a house from a rural family, and for just the few of them, it was pretty spacious.
Most of the ti, it was Xu He and Luo Zhiming living in one room with the child, and Zhou Yuni with Zhuzi in another.
The countryside was very quiet, and every night, the family could sleep well.
But tonight was different.
After entering their room, Luo Zhiming sensitively noticed that Xu He didn’t bring the child back with her. He asked coldly, "Where’s the child?"
"The child has been taken to mom’s." After Xu He spoke, she stared intently at Luo Zhiming and then took off her outer clothes and pants, left in a very enticing set of underwear. She sat next to Luo Zhiming, her hand gently brushing his face, her voice carrying a hint of charm, "Zhiming, ever since having the child, I’ve been very busy every day, neglecting you. I was thinking tonight we..."
