Luo Zhiyong endured the pain, took Fang Pingying’s hand away, and then quickly walked over to pick up Yaoyao, trying to quickly take the little girl away, and imdiately changed the subject, "Didn’t you just sleep, Yaoyao? Why did you get up?"
But Yaoyao didn’t want to leave. She raised the phone in her chubby little hand and shouted, "The phone on the table rang. I answered it. Grandpa called and said he has sothing to talk to Dad about. He wants Dad to answer the phone."
Luo Zhiyong saw that the phone Yaoyao was holding was Fang Pingying’s mobile phone, and it seed the call was still ongoing. He imdiately let go of Yaoyao to take the call, instructing her, "I got it, give the phone. You go to sleep first, Dad will answer the call."
Yaoyao nodded in agreent, but her eyes were still darting around, looking at Fang Pingying who was still in the bathtub.
With both her daughter and Luo Zhiyong there, Fang Pingying was embarrassed to stand up naked. She was about to tell Yaoyao to go back to sleep, but unexpectedly, the little girl suddenly stripped off all her clothes and climbed into the bathtub, sitting on Fang Pingying’s legs, giggling, "Mom, let massage your shoulders."
"..." This little girl was crafty, claiming to massage her mom’s shoulders, but in reality, she just loved playing with water. Her eyes lit up whenever she saw water, and it wasn’t just her; the other two little kids at ho were the sa. Usually, Fang Pingying was afraid they’d get wet and catch a cold, so she always forbade them from playing.
Now, this little girl had seized the opportunity, but since she was being so filial, Fang Pingying couldn’t say anything and had to let her be.
The next day, Luo Zhiyong took a break at noon to drive over to Luo Dashan’s place.
Because he received a call from Luo Dashan last night, but Luo Dashan didn’t clearly explain what was going on, only saying it was urgent and asking Luo Zhiyong to co over.
Luo Zhiyong thought Luo Dashan might be unwell, so he hurried over without even having lunch.
When Luo Zhiyong went upstairs, the first thing he saw was Zhou Yuni anxiously looking out from the doorway. He keenly noticed that when Zhou Yuni saw him, she had a look of relief, as if she had been worried he wouldn’t co.
So, when she saw Luo Zhiyong, Zhou Yuni warmly greeted him, "Zhiyong, you’re here! Co quickly and eat. I’ve prepared food, just waiting for you to get off work and eat."
"No need, I’ll eat at the canteen back at the barracks later." Luo Zhiyong glanced at Zhou Yuni, didn’t speak to her, and just walked inside, looking at Luo Dashan sitting by the table, "Dad, what’s up?"
Seeing Luo Dashan did not seem sick and appeared as if there was no urgent matter, Luo Zhiyong was relieved.
Luo Dashan hesitated for a mont, unsure how to start. But later, encouraged by Zhou Yuni’s gaze, he tentatively asked, "Has Pingying told you about your biological mother?"
"She has." As soon as Luo Zhiyong heard this, he frowned tightly and asked, "What’s wrong?"
Seeing that Luo Zhiyong was inford, it was easier for Luo Dashan to continue. He imdiately said, "Since she’s told you, you should know she hasn’t been doing well over these years, and I’ve t her. Actually, she’s always felt guilty for leaving you all these years. She wants to et you, could you find ti to see her?"
"She wants to et ?" Luo Zhiyong was slightly surprised; he thought Xiutao would never want to see him in her lifeti.
He thought she shouldn’t have the courage to face him, at least not after knowing their relationship. She wouldn’t have the strength for that.
In fact, when Luo Dashan went to see Xiutao, she didn’t say she wanted to et Luo Zhiyong. Instead, feeling she had no face to et him, she insisted on not seeing him.
As for what Luo Dashan said, it was under the direction of Zhou Yuni, because Zhou Yuni said to show Xiutao’s sincerity, only then would Luo Zhiyong be willing to et her.
Therefore, upon Luo Zhiyong’s rhetorical question, Luo Dashan felt slightly guilty and didn’t respond imdiately.
Zhou Yuni, fearing that Luo Dashan might blow their cover, quickly chid in, "That’s right, your biological mother wants to see you."
She paused, then imdiately continued, "Zhiyong, actually I think your biological mother surely regrets it over these years, but she’s also had a tough life, driven by circumstances."
Hearing how Zhou Yuni spoke, Luo Zhiyong was even more surprised. When had Zhou Yuni beco so understanding and sympathetic? Could it be that this period was enough to change a person’s nature?
He looked at Zhou Yuni, raising an eyebrow and asked, "You think I should et her too? Weren’t you supposed to hate her to death?"
Zhou Yuni inwardly cursed Luo Zhiyong; this kid was indeed much sharper than his father. But outwardly, she still played the role of a very reasonable person, "Zhiyong, don’t make out to be such a villain. I’m a mother too and understand a mother’s longing for her children. Besides, now I’ve co to see that even if I wanted to stop it, I couldn’t, right?"
Although Zhou Yuni’s words were reasonable, in Luo Zhiyong’s eyes, this ti, Zhou Yuni was really different from before, or rather, these words weren’t sothing Zhou Yuni would normally say.
At this mont, Luo Zhiyong beca suspicious of Zhou Yuni, but he hadn’t thought about all the things Zhou Yuni was secretly doing, so he didn’t dwell on it.
But as for Xiutao, since they said she actively wanted to see him, after considering it, Luo Zhiyong agreed.
Thus, they scheduled the eting for noon the next day for the mother and son to et.
That day, Luo Zhiyong went back and told Fang Pingying about it, and because he feared the scene might be awkward, he asked Fang Pingying to accompany him the next day.
Actually, deep down, he was a bit uneasy. After all, she was his mother whom he had never t. He didn’t even know what kind of scene it would be when he saw her.
At noon the next day, Luo Zhiyong first went ho to pick up Fang Pingying, then headed to Luo Dashan’s because Luo Dashan said he wanted to go with Luo Zhiyong. And he knew where Xiutao’s house was, so they could find a nearby place to et.
When Luo Dashan followed them out the door, Fang Pingying saw Zhou Yuni also locking the door. It seed Zhou Yuni had been prepared, though it was unknown where she had sent Zhuzhu.
Fang Pingying was initially puzzled by Zhou Yuni’s unusual compliance. Then seeing her planning to co along, she frowned and asked, "So many people going?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuni’s eyes flashed with a hint of shrewdness, but quickly, she retreated strategically and said, "If it’s inconvenient, then I won’t go."
Fang Pingying and Luo Zhiyong didn’t respond, but Luo Dashan quickly said, "Let’s all go, it’s no problem."
