Chapter 210: I can’t even call you now, right?

Lin Ziqiu looked back a few times worriedly and found that Ruan Qing had borrowed an umbrella from somewhere and was walking slowly behind him.

Zhong Heyang's voice came from above his head, "I thought you would stop me today."

Lin Ziqiu was stunned. "That's not necessary. Zhong Zhiyang should learn a lesson. Grandma dotes on him too much, so he is fearless in everything he does."

First she ran away from her marriage, then she got pregnant before marriage, and then she went to do business on the black market.

If Zhong Zhiyang hadn't relied on the fact that his grandmother would always protect him no matter what, he wouldn't have been so courageous.

"But if grandma knew about this, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to accept it."

Zhong Heyang said calmly, "Didn't you ask Ruan Qing to prepare some emergency heart-saving pills?"

Lin Ziqiu: “…”

It was actually heard! ! !

As expected of a former soldier, his hearing is much sharper than that of ordinary people!

Zhong Heyang reached out and rubbed her head, "Don't be afraid, your husband will take care of everything."

When Lin Ziqiu heard the words "your husband", her cheeks immediately turned red, "You...be serious!"

Zhong Heyang leaned over to her with an innocent look on his face and asked, "Am I not serious? Am I not your husband?"

Lin Ziqiu quickly dodged, "Yes... I didn't say you weren't... Oh! Let's go, what will we do if it rains heavily!"

She didn't want to continue this topic and walked forward with a red face.

Zhong Heyang curled the corners of his lips slightly and chased after him.

···

As soon as I got home, I saw Li Guixiang walking back and forth in the main room, looking anxious.

Zhong Heyang patted Lin Ziqiu on the shoulder and said, "Go upstairs first. I'll go talk to grandma."

Lin Ziqiu was a little worried, "I'd better stay here. I'm afraid grandma can't bear the shock..."

"It's okay, trust me."

Seeing them coming back, Li Guixiang ran over in the rain and asked, "Where have you been?"

Zhong Heyang ran into Ruan Qing and others on his way home after leaving the army. She and Tian Xiaofeng said different things without any tacit understanding, and he saw through them at a glance.

So, Ruan Qing had to confess that Zhong Zhiyang had gone to the black market.

Zhong Heyang didn't even go home. He wanted to just pull out his leather belt and beat people up on the black market!

"Grandma, it's so late, what are you doing here?" Lin Ziqiu did not answer her, but took the lead.

Li Guixiang was already in a state of high tension. She had been worried about Zhong Zhiyang. He hadn't come back so late, and all the children at home were out.

It was hard for her not to worry.

"I... I just ate too much last night and I need to digest it." Li Guixiang still wanted to hide Zhong Zhiyang's experience in the black market from him. "It's getting late. You should all go back to your rooms and get some rest!"

Lin Ziqiu was about to speak, but Zhong Heyang took the lead and said, "Grandma, I have something to tell you."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Lin Ziqiu, motioning her to go up first.

Lin Ziqiu was still a little worried. Before leaving, she took out a bottle of emergency heart-saving pills from her pocket and stuffed them into Zhong Heyang's palm. She lowered her voice and said, "Call me if you need anything."

"Um."

Zhong Heyang weighed the object in his palm, his eyes darkening slightly.

Seeing her grandson so serious, Li Guixiang couldn't help but feel a little scared, "Why can't we talk about it tomorrow? It's very late..."

After Lin Ziqiu went upstairs, Zhong Heyang spoke up, "How long do you want to keep Zhong Zhiyang's affairs secret from me?"

Li Guixiang was dumbfounded. "You...you know everything? How did you know? Where is Zhiyang now? Is he okay?"

"I took him to the police station."

Zhong Heyang didn't intend to lay any groundwork and told her directly.

Li Guixiang staggered and swayed a few times, almost losing her balance. "You...what did you say? Are you crazy? He is your brother!"

This is the second person who said the same thing about him today.

Zhong Heyang was extremely determined, "Because he is my brother, I have to be more responsible for his life! You have doted on him since he was a child and took on everything for him, but what is the result?"

"When he was a kid, he dared to skip school. When he grew up, he dared to run away from marriage! He even got someone pregnant! He knew he was going to be a father, but he refused to take a stable job because he thought it was too shameful and the pay was too low. He wanted to do those shady things to make a lot of money!"

"He went to the black market, got cheated and beaten, and came back to ask you for money. You're still responsible for this! Are you protecting him? You want to ruin his life!"

In the past years, Zhong Heyang turned a blind eye for the sake of his grandmother.

Thinking that no matter how hopeless Zhong Zhiyang was, as long as he could marry and have children in peace and stability, he could support the whole family, but what about him?

Do whatever you want and make all kinds of messes!

It's all his own fault that he is in this situation now!

Li Guixiang covered her chest and burst into tears: "But...but he is the only bloodline left by your uncle after all! How can I watch him suffer!"

"It's all my fault, it's me! It was me who asked him to go to the black market. I'll go tell the comrades at the police station!"

Zhong Heyang blocked her way and steadied his grandmother's shoulders, "Grandma! Wake up! If you continue to take responsibility for this matter for him, I will never agree! I will ask them to deal with him more seriously!"

“You…you…”

When Li Guixiang heard this, she seemed to be unable to breathe. Zhong Heyang hurriedly stuffed a heart-saving pill into her mouth and asked her to swallow it with water.

After a long while, Li Guixiang finally felt better. She held the cup with trembling hands and smashed it to the ground, "I don't have a grandson like you!"

"Okay!" Zhong Heyang did not give in at all. "If you insist on protecting Zhong Zhiyang, and you don't even care about me, your grandson, or our family, then I have nothing to say!"

"you……"

Li Guixiang was completely controlled.

She couldn't bear to watch her family fall apart.

They were both silent for a while. Li Guixiang calmed down and then spoke: "What do you want? Even if he is wrong, you can't really ruin his life!"

"That's his own fault!"

After saying this, Zhong Heyang turned and left.

Li Guixiang pointed at his back with trembling hands and wanted to scold him but held it back.

There are neighbors all around her. If the situation gets out of hand, not only will she be laughed at by outsiders, but it will also be of no benefit to her. She has to find a way to save Zhong Zhiyang.

But as soon as she stepped out of the door, her grandson's warning came to her mind.

When she thinks about it carefully, she did indulge Zhong Zhiyang too much, and it was she who harmed him step by step.

But she couldn't just watch Zhong Zhiyang being arrested and having a criminal record, so she turned around and gave up the idea of ​​running to the police station, and went straight to Zhao Huaian's house.

···

Zhong Xuexi was about to go back from Zhao's house, but Zhao Huaian was still standing at the door, reluctant to let go of her hand.

Li Guixiang saw the two of them from a distance and ran over in a hurry, "Xuexi! Come with me to ask your eldest brother for mercy. He has sent Zhiyang to the police station!"

Zhong Xuexi frowned, "What's going on?"

"Don't ask so many questions, just follow me first!"

Li Guixiang was anxious and wanted to ask her granddaughter to plead for mercy, but Zhong Xuexi was unusually calm.

She held her grandmother's hand without moving a step, "Grandma, tell me the truth, what did Zhong Zhiyang do again?"

Zhong Xuexi knew her elder brother very well. Zhong Zhiyang was her uncle’s only child. Her elder brother could even help him clean up the mess after he ran away from his marriage, let alone other messes?

Then there is only one possibility, Zhong Zhiyang must have committed some irreparable mistake, otherwise he would not have been sent to the police station by his eldest brother.

Li Guixiang suddenly shook her hand away, "What's wrong with you? I can't even call you now, right?"
