Chapter 597: Chapter 597 When to Take Action Chapter 597: Chapter 597 When to Take Action Luo Qiao was fiddling with the telephone cord in her hand. “Don’t talk nonsense, what are you even saying?”
Jing Wanpeng hadn’t expected to guess wrong and asked, “Then why are you investigating that widow?”
Luo Qiao replied, “She’s scamming people, so of course I have to look into her. Moreover, if it’s confirmed she’s no good, I’ll make her regret it deeply.”
Jing Wanpeng didn’t understand what Luo Qiao meant and asked, “What’s the actual situation?”
Luo Qiao felt there was nothing to hide about this matter. Although it was embarrassing, she couldn’t blame her eldest uncle, so she briefly recounted the incident.
Jing Wanpeng said, “I understand, I’ll get you the information as soon as possible.”
When she got home, Zhou Guifang said, “Qiaoqiao, go talk to your auntie. I’ll go make her a few dumplings to eat.”
Zhang Yuehua was just about to say something to stop her when she heard Luo Qiao say, “Auntie, the filling my grandma made is really fragrant. I’ll join you in a bit, I’m also hungry now.”
Zhou Guifang said with a smile, “Right, right, right, this girl didn’t eat properly at noon when she went to deliver lunch. It’s perfect that the two of you can eat together. Having pany makes the meal more enjoyable. I made quite a lot this morning, so it’ll be ready soon. You two chat, I’ll have it done in no time.”
Zhang Yuehua said someewhat awkwardly to Luo Qiao, “I feel I’ve caused your grandmother trouble by ing over.”
Luo Qiao smiled and said, “It’s no trouble at all, auntie. Don’t overthink it. And about that Zhao Jinhua, I’ve already sent someone to investigate her. Don’t worry.”
Zhang Yuehua said, “Qiaoqiao, your auntie thanks you. I haven’t told your cousins about this because I’m afraid they might act impulsively and cause more trouble. Originally, I was just feeling so anxious and wanted to talk to someone, but I didn’t expect to end up bothering you.”
Luo Qiao patted her eldest aunt’s hand, “Please don’t talk like that. Since I know about it, I can’t let that woman get away with it and let you and my eldest uncle be hurt.”
Soon, the dumplings in the kitchen were ready. Zhang Yuehua and Luo Qiao got up and headed to the kitchen together to help bring them out. Zhang Yuehua said, “Auntie, I really brought you trouble today.”
Zhou Guifang replied, “What trouble? Just think of it as your own home. You have taken care of my kids many times in the past. Even though our families can’t bee relatives by marriage now, you’re still Qiaoqiao and the others’ aunt, and our relationship is unaffected.”
Zhang Yuehua said, “Ah, let’s not talk about her anymore. She’s just looking for trouble. Now that each of the kids is doing well, we can feel more at ease and fortable.”
Luo Qiao suggested, “Auntie, e eat and taste grandma’s cooking. This filling is exceptional.”
Zhang Yuehua took a bite of a dumpling, “Mmm, Auntie, your skills are getting better and better. It’s really delicious.”
Zhou Guifang laughed and said, “If it tastes good, eat more.” Ha ha, little darlings, does this seem familiar?
Luo Qiao had just finished eating and hadn’t even had time to drink the dumpling soup her grandmother had served when Sun Ming came running to call her to the phone.
Luo Qiao said goodbye to her grandmother and aunt, put on her coat, and ran out to answer the call.
The call was from Jing Wanpeng. Since Zhao Jinhua’s man had left, to support her three children, she had been involved with several men. Only recently, her eldest son got into a fight and seriously injured the other party, urgently needing money to deal with the crisis.
He guessed that rather than wanting to break up her eldest uncle’s home, she was looking to extort money; she had not known her eldest uncle before, but probably found out where he worked after he accidentally revealed it, which led Zhao Jinhua to e up with such a dimwitted scheme.”
Luo Qiao’s face turned grim. “The address of her home and details about those few men she’s been involved with, tell me.”
Jing Wanpeng said, “What are you planning to do? I can handle this for you, so you don’t have to get your hands dirty.”
Luo Qiao replied calmly, “Then let her disgusting deeds be exposed in public. Let those men’s wives deal with her first, as a way to collect some interest for me. I will make sure she gets a harsh lesson, that she gives up her disgraceful behavior and never dares to do such things again.”
Jing Wanpeng hadn’t expected the young girl to be so ruthless, and knowing she was truly angry, he asked, “When do you want to move?”
Luo Qiao spoke bluntly, “The sooner the better, I want to hear the news by tomorrow morning. If your people find it difficult to plete the task, just give me the address and I’ll take care of it personally.”
