novelWhy Are You Looking for My Daughter?
| ← Ch.1261 | Ch.1263 → |
There was a hint of astonishment in Xiao Yuan's eyes. He subconsciously looked toward his grandmother, but Old Madam Xiao didn't give him a reply.
He saw Zhou Yuchen's calm face with a sideward glance and finally felt a sense of danger.
...
The photo that was circulated crazily online didn't affect Yun Liuli at all. She hadn't done the deed to begin with, and Fang Yan quickly resolved the matter. Yun Liuli was only disgusted for a few hours before Gu Qingcheng took her for their wedding photos. She quickly forgot about the matter after that.
However, Bai Xiaonian was disgusted by Hong Jinyun's mother. More accurately speaking, both Bai Xiaonian and her father had been disgusted by Hong Jinyun's mother.
Ever since Lu Jinnan cut off connections with Hong Jinyun, both Hong Jinyun and her mother weren't able to get in touch with Lu Jinnan at all. Hong Jinyun's mother had thought that they had found a backing. She didn't expect Lu Jinnan to wash his hands of them and hand them over to his assistant.
After figuring out that Lu Jinnan was a man who valued relationships, and also knowing that the reason Hong Jinyun had gotten addicted to drugs was because of Lu Jinnan, Hong Jinyun's mother wasn't planning to let go of him so easily.
She knew long ago that Bai Xiaonian was Lu Jinnan's wife. She spent money to get someone to find out Bai Xiaonian's address, then went knocking on their door, bringing along her tears and grieving experience.
Last night, Bai Xiaonian's father said that he was going home to get something. After seeing the house in a dirty state... he cleaned up the entire place. It had been late by the time he was done, so he said that he would be resting at home and not staying with Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan.
Early the next morning, Bai Xiaonian called her father when she woke up. Bai Xiaonian's father felt that Lu Jinnan, the caretaker, and the nutritionist had taken quite good care of Bai Xiaonian. After some consideration, he decided to stay at home and just visit Bai Xiaonian once every two days!
This was primarily because Bai Xiaonian's father didn't need to be involved in taking care of Bai Xiaonian over there. There was also no one around there he knew, and having gotten old in age, he wanted to play Chinese chess or something. The elderly people in the high-class district would all practice calligraphy or taichi. They also tended to be more cold and lofty. After staying for a while, Bai Xiaonian's father couldn't get used to the lifestyle there.
Bai Xiaonian understood him. After all, her father had a lively character. Every day, he would only feel happy for the short few hours Lu Jinnan was there.
Therefore, Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian packed up her father's belongings and sent them back to his place at noon. They planned on having lunch there before leaving.
After waking up from her afternoon nap, Bai Xiaonian took a few bites of the fruits her father had cut for her. She then suddenly said that she wanted to eat golden berries.
While Bai Xiaonian was pregnant, Lu Jinnan would listen to almost everything Bai Xiaonian said. Without saying anything, he picked up his car keys and headed out to buy golden berries for Bai Xiaonian. However, they weren't easy to find. There were none in the supermarkets...
Bai Xiaonian was watching the news while eating fruits when someone knocked on the door.
Bai Xiaonian's father, who was accompanying Bai Xiaonian to watch the news, got up to open the door. He saw a middle-aged lady who seemed to have taken care of her skin well standing there. She was holding a branded bag, dressed well, and looked like an upper-class woman with a good upbringing.
"May I ask if this is Miss Bai Xiaonian's residence?" the lady asked.
Hearing her name, Bai Xiaonian turned...
Bai Xiaonian's father asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm the mother of Lu Jinnan's friend. I've come to look for Miss Bai..." the lady said.
Bai Xiaonian got up.
"I'm Bai Xiaonian's father. Lu Jinnan isn't around. Why are you looking for my daughter?" Bai Xiaonian's father looked at the middle-aged woman warily.
Bai Xiaonian was now pregnant, and he instinctively protected his daughter behind him. For the mother of Lu Jinnan's friend to come looking for Bai Xiaonian... no matter how one saw it, there seemed to be some story behind this, and the person hadn't come with kind intentions.
"I wish to talk to Miss Bai about my daughter Hong Jinyun, " Hong Jinyun's mother smiled and said.
Bai Xiaonian felt disgust at the mention of Hong Jinyun's name. She got up and headed in the direction of the door.
"Then we'll talk after Lu Jinnan gets back. He should be back soon!" Bai Xiaonian's father smiled at Hong Jinyun's mother.
Hong Jinyun's sharp eyes caught Bai Xiaonian. She tried to squeeze through the door."Miss Bai, I'm Hong Jinyun's mother. I have some things that I wish to talk to you about!"
"Hey hey hey hey! What are you doing?" Bai Xiaonian's father had one hand on the door and the other on the door frame, stopping Hong Jinyun's mother from entering.
Bai Xiaonian was pregnant. If she was infuriated or if this woman were to push Bai Xiaonian, then it'd be a matter of life and death.
"Firstly, I don't know Hong Jinyun. Secondly, I quite loathe the two of you. What's there to talk about? If you don't leave and try to barge into our place, I'll call the police..." Bai Xiaonian stood a distance away from the door, keeping her guard up and smiling as she spoke.
Bai Xiaonian had just finished saying this when two of the people who had been protecting her recently came down and asked Bai Xiaonian's father, "Uncle, do you need help?"
Lu Jinnan had already told his father-in-law that he had gotten people to protect Bai Xiaonian. He said that it was mainly because he was worried that there'd be no one to protect Bai Xiaonian while she was pregnant.
Hong Jinyun's mother had met bodyguards before and could tell that these two young men with burly builds should both be trained. Therefore, she didn't dare to barge in recklessly.
She looked toward Bai Xiaonian, who was dressed loosely, and her gaze fell on her slightly protruding stomach. She spoke up in tears."Bai Xiaonian is pregnant. You and Lu Jinnan have a child now, but my daughter won't ever be able to be a mother in this lifetime because of Lu Jinnan!"
Bai Xiaonian continued to smile as she looked at Hong Jinyun's mother, not seeming angry at all. She said politely, "If this madam doesn't leave, then please help me take her out. It's affecting my appetite!"
The two bodyguards grabbed onto the arms of Hong Jinyun's mother and took her downstairs after receiving the order.
Hong Jinyun's mother probably hadn't expected Bai Xiaonian to do this. She no longer kept up her act of an upper-class lady and started to threaten the two bodyguards.
"Let go of me! Otherwise, I'll shout that you're molesting me!" Hong Jinyun's mother put up a struggle.
The two bodyguards held onto the arms of Hong Jinyun's mother skillfully, holding her up and taking her downstairs. No matter how hard she struggled, her legs would just dangle in the air, and it was futile.
The bodyguards took Hong Jinyun's mother downstairs. Seeing that it was useless to keep up the act of an upper-class lady, Hong Jinyun's mother dropped to her knees and howled...
"Bai Xiaonian, I beg of you to give my daughter a way out! She can't hold on for much longer! Because of Lu Jinnan, she became addicted to drugs and had her uterus ruined. They grew up together and were together for so many years! I beg of you to give her a way out!"
Hong Jinyun's mother shouted so loudly that all the neighbors in the area looked downstairs from their windows.
