Chapter 701
"Actually, if she marries Liu Zhenqiang, she won’t be happy either..." Chuxia suppressed her smile and sighed softly, "I’m really not sure if our help is truly helping her."
Zhou Mikang looked at his little wife helplessly, "Look at you, worrying for nothing again, aren’t you? Everyone has their own understanding and way of doing things, and if Zhao Qiyan finds happiness in this, then this is her happiness."
"That’s true..." Chuxia nodded, "At the very least, this approach is the only way for the child to be born without discrimination, so this help should be the right thing."
"According to what you said, society will beco much more open in the future, so even if Zhao Qiyan and Liu Zhenqiang get divorced, she can still find soone suitable for her, right?"
"I’m not worried about whether she’ll find soone suitable in the future, I’m just concerned for the child." Chuxia stubbornly refused to admit her soft spot for Zhao Qiyan.
"Oh, you..." Zhou Mikang sighed helplessly, too lazy to say more to her.
"By the way..." Chuxia suddenly slapped her forehead, "Liu Zhenqiang’s sweetheart is Kim Lan, who previously wanted to marry my brother. If Liu Zhenqiang marries Zhao Qiyan, would Kim Lan still have any thoughts about my brother?"
"Unlikely, my brother is about to beco a father. No matter how crazy she is, she wouldn’t dare to make small moves anymore. This isn’t the open era you talked about; she can’t afford the consequences of ddling."
"That’s good..." Chuxia let out a long breath, "Well, if one is satisfied, the other won’t be, but Zhong Hongying will be the most dissatisfied. I want to see if she ends up shooting herself in the foot."
Zhou Mikang snorted coldly, "She should pay for her actions." Daring to sche against his little wife, did she think he was just for display? She’s had more than enough good days!
Zhong Hongying, busy organizing in her newly moved small ho, sneezed. She rubbed her nose with her red hands from the cold and quickly got up to pour herself a cup of hot water.
Glancing around the small room of just over ten square ters, she frowned. Compared to Liu Zhenqiang’s seventy-plus square ters ho, this place was really too simplistic.
Thinking of Mrs. Liu’s coldness when she moved out made her grit her teeth with hate. During these days at the Liu family, she had used all her ans to please them, and they had explicitly expressed satisfaction with her, calling her as dear as their own daughter more than once.
And what happened? When they found out Liu Zhenqiang had found a better woman, they turned their face faster than flipping a book. While she was packing, they even stood beside her watching the whole ti. It was just too much! Even if she, Zhong Hongying, had no backbone, she wouldn’t steal their tattered clothes!
Besides, the things that should belong to her, she had already forced Liu Zhenqiang to buy for her... Thinking of this, she felt a bit secretly happy. If that old lady knew the price Liu Zhenqiang paid, she might just get so angry she’d spit blood, right?
Thinking of Liu Zhenqiang being dealt with by Zhou family mbers, her heart felt even more satisfied.
Why did she go inform Zhao Qiyan? Of course, it wasn’t truly for Zhao Qiyan’s good. She wanted to make sure if she couldn’t live well, neither could anyone else.
Although Zhao Qiyan and Lin Chuxia didn’t have a good relationship, they were still relatives. Liu Zhenqiang doing such a thing was literally a slap to the face of the Zhou family!
If the foolish Zhao Qiyan didn’t know how to leverage this, then she’d guide her!
Anyway, her status had already been secured, and working at the textile factory was assured. If one day Liu Zhenqiang had bad luck, he wouldn’t be able to implicate her. By then, let’s see if that Kim Lan would still want to marry him!
As for Zhao Qiyan, she believed Lin Chuxia wouldn’t truly help Zhao Qiyan. So, knowing that Zhao Qiyan brought the disaster that implicated herself, Liu Zhenqiang would definitely hate Zhao Qiyan to death. So, marrying Zhao Qiyan, is that possible?
By then, she would beco Liu Zhenqiang’s savior. No matter what, Liu Zhenqiang was a city person, and even if he lost his official position, he would certainly still be a worker. Marrying a worker, she’d have so face back in her hotown.
She believed that by then, she’d definitely have the ability to make Liu Zhenqiang let go of his prejudice and live well with her. If it weren’t for her body already being his, she wouldn’t have wronged herself like this. But thinking carefully, exchanging herself for a stable job this way was quite worth it, right?
The more she thought, the more she regretted her previous attitude towards Liu Zhenqiang. She couldn’t even understand her mindset. Before, she clearly didn’t want to be a worker, but now that she was officially a worker, she found marrying a worker to be quite nice...
Settling her mind, she continued tidying her small nest and her heart gradually beca clear. Actually, it wasn’t that she thought marrying a worker was nice, but living in such a small room made her suddenly realize how great the big house originally was!
As long as she married Liu Zhenqiang, she could beco the owner of that house!
Thinking this, she felt excited again, her mind filled with daydreams of happy days back in the big house...
...
"Great Regintal Commander Zhou, what brings such an honored guest like you here?" i Yitong looked at the unexpectedly visiting Zhou Mikang with a teasing face, "Aren’t you spending every minute with your sister-in-law? Don’t tell you had a fight with her and got kicked out?"
"Sorry, I can’t fulfill your wish; we are doing just fine." Zhou Mikang sat down and sized him up, "You look good, it seems you’re truly satisfied this ti."
"Thanks for your blessings, I also think I’m quite lucky." i Yitong smiled contentedly, "I used to envy you for eting your wife. To be honest, I really admire her personality and even wondered, why wasn’t I the one who t her first?" Seeing Zhou Mikang’s face darken, he quickly said, "No need to glare at , I was talking about the past. Besides, after knowing she was with you, I never had any ill thoughts."
"Now, I don’t envy you anymore because I’ve also found soone suitable for . Although her personality is a bit stubborn and she’s quite a bit younger than , being with her makes very happy, almost like I’ve suddenly beco a few years younger. Zhou Mikang, tell honestly, don’t you feel the sa way with your wife?"
"No..." Zhou Mikang glanced at him indifferently, "I’m not as childish as you."
i Yitong: "..." Alright, he knew trying to have a heart-to-heart with this person was asking for trouble, so he cut to the chase, "What’s the matter? Speak."
"Just letting you know, I’m going to deal with Liu Zhenqiang."
"My second uncle’s prized subordinate?" i Yitong looked at Zhou Mikang in surprise, "Did he offend you?"
"You could say that." Zhou Mikang shrugged, "The woman he got pregnant is my wife’s cousin. Although the relationship isn’t great, she’s still family."
"Got it." i Yitong nodded, "I’ll notify my second uncle. As for what he decides, that’s his business. Anyway, I’ve done my duty."
Zhou Mikang pointed at the phone on the table: "Call him now."
"You’re so impatient..." i Yitong sighed helplessly, picked up the phone, and dialed. After a mont, he put down the phone, "No one answered, I’ll try again later."
"Alright." Zhou Mikang replied, picking up a newspaper nearby.
Clearly, he was going to stay until the matter was resolved. i Yitong looked even more resigned, thought for a mont, and asked, "What will you do if my second uncle doesn’t agree?"
Zhou Mikang snorted coldly, "I’ll let him know it’s out of respect for him. If he doesn’t agree and one day gets dragged into this because of Liu Zhenqiang, he can’t say I didn’t warn him."
Alright, asking was pointless, i Yitong touched his nose and picked up a newspaper too.
"What are you reading the newspaper for? Make the call," Zhou Mikang said.
"What’s with your attitude?" i Yitong glared at him, "I’m not your subordinate, why should I do whatever you say? I’m helping you, shouldn’t you be more polite to ?"
"If it weren’t for Uncle i, do you think I’d ask you to inform i Changjiang? Misjudging people and treating them like treasures, also, if i Changjiang didn’t give him enough guts, would he dare do it?"
Knowing Zhou Mikang was speaking the truth, i Yitong awkwardly smiled and dialed the phone again. This ti soone answered, and i Yitong quickly said, "Second Uncle, I need to talk to you, about Liu Zhenqiang on your side, what do you think of him?"
"He’s pretty good..." i Changjiang’s voice was calm, "Why ask about him all of a sudden?"
"I think there’s a bit of a problem with his character. If things continue this way, you might get implicated, so I wanted to give you a heads up."
"What’s going on?" i Changjiang’s voice had a trace of impatience. Usually overshadowed by his big brother, i Changqing, now even his nephew was pressing him, wasn’t this too much?
"He originally had a pregnant girlfriend, you know that, right?"
"Why should I know about sothing like that? Yitong, do you think your uncle has nothing better to do?"
i Yitong sighed, "Liu Zhenqiang’s girlfriend is Zhou Mikang’s wife’s cousin, and now Liu Zhenqiang wants to abandon her and give the child away."
At this point, i Yitong didn’t need to say more, and i Changjiang understood the reason for the call.
Knowing that the woman is related to Zhou Mikang’s wife and still doing such a thing is a slap in the face to the Zhou family, so it’s quite normal for Zhou Mikang to intervene.
i Changjiang, although proud, clearly understood what was really important. He was already not on par with his brother i Changqing, and if the Zhou family targeted him, even if on the sa team, it wouldn’t end well for him.
Besides, he didn’t really like Liu Zhenqiang and was only promoting him because a few things he did appealed to him. He hoped that one day, Liu Zhenqiang could be more helpful to him.
Now, since not only is he not helping, but also dragging him down, better to cut him loose. (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welco to vote with recomndations or monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.)
