Chapter 357 Something Happened

Lin Xuezhen, who knew that she had caused a big disaster, was so scared that she threw herself on Old Man Lin and cried, but was forcibly pulled away by Old Man Cheng in anger.

It’s such a good time now, what’s the point of crying if you don’t save anyone?

Old Cheng didn't expect to see this scene when he just came out. Just now, he saw Old Man Lin taking too long in the toilet, so he came out to find someone to see them eavesdrop. Just when he was about to cough to remind Jiaojiao, who would have thought he would hear those words?

In the living room, Zhou Xiaozheng, his father-in-law and his son-in-law were chatting with the old lady. When they heard the noise outside, they knew something had happened and ran out in fright.

"Hurry and move him to the car and take him to the hospital immediately. Lao Lin, don't get too excited. Quick, Xiao Zheng, go drive the car. Xiao Wu, hold your grandpa."

As soon as Zhou Xiaozheng came out, he saw his daughter's face was pale, she was standing stupidly at the door with her eyes blank.

He didn't care about Mr. Lin who had fallen to the ground. He hugged Zhou Jiao and patted her, "Darling, don't be afraid, it's okay. Dad is here. Darling, wake up, it's okay, it's really okay. Dad is by your side, look at Dad."

Zhou Xiaozheng kept patting his daughter, glanced at Old Man Lin lying on the ground, frowned, and asked Zhang Guoqing to send the man to the hospital quickly.

At this time, he noticed that his wife was crying out for her father, not caring at all about her frightened daughter.

He suddenly became furious and shouted, "What the hell is going on? Can someone give me an explanation?"

Old Mrs. Cheng looked at the mess in front of her and heard Ping'an crying in the inner room. She quickly pulled Zhou Xiaozheng and his daughter into the room.

As for the fallen old man Lin, what about his wife and the others? The old lady was so worried about her nephew's family that she couldn't care about anyone else.

Zhou Jiao watched Zhang Guoqing quickly carry Grandpa Lin away, and a group of people ran out of the yard.

At this moment, she closed her eyes and trembled in her voice, "Dad, I didn't kill grandpa, did I? I didn't mean to do it. I was so angry that I just shouted it out. Who knew he was outside?"

Zhou Xiaozheng patted her and said lightly, "It's okay. I just saw that she was just exhausted from anger, not having a stroke. She won't die."

Zhou Jiao let out a long breath. It was good that she wasn't dead! She didn't care about the others in the Lin family, but Old Man Lin treated her well. She couldn't let him be implicated in her and Gu Ruyi's affairs.

When she saw Mr. Lin falling to the ground just now, she seemed to see Grandpa Zhang again - Grandpa Zhang on the hospital bed, Grandpa Zhang smiling at her, and Grandpa Zhang being pushed in for cremation with his eyes closed.

In the yard, the two girls in the courtyard were so frightened that they couldn't speak. Until a group of people followed Mr. Lin to the hospital, seeing the empty Zhou family, the two of them hurried to Zhou Jiao's room hand in hand.

"Jiaojiao, are you okay? I'm sorry, we didn't expect anything to happen. It was just a prank to scare you, but Grandpa Lin didn't let us make any noise."

"Jiaojiao, please don't get hurt. Otherwise, I'll be dead if I go back."

Zhou Jiao had regained her sanity by now and shook her head. "It doesn't matter. When will my grandpa come over? How much did he hear?"

Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Xiaozheng and Old Lady Cheng, the two girls didn't dare to hide anything. They looked at each other, and one of them stuck out her tongue and whispered, "Grandpa Lin heard everything. We came here just to scare you, not to eavesdrop. As soon as we were lying under the window, he came over and told us to be quiet, and he glared at us."

Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at his daughter and saw that she had recovered as before. "Were you with your mother? Did she tell you everything? Your mother has become very capable. She can even make you say anything that you can't stand."

After saying that, seeing Zhou Jiao lower her head and remain silent, he sighed and touched her head. This child is very thoughtful. If she says something, then she will say it. Since they dare to do it, why can't his Jiaojiao say it?

"You two girls, tell your uncle what Jiaojiao and her mother said. Don't be nervous and speak slowly."

Zhou Jiao was so scared that she quickly squeezed her father's hand, but he glared at her. She was so anxious that she watched over Old Lady Cheng worriedly - don't let another person fall down tonight.

After thinking about it, Zhou Jiao quickly waved to Aunt Chen, whispered a few words in her ear, and saw her holding the child.

Zhou Jiao quickly pulled the old lady who was listening with gusto and whispered, "Aunt, I don't dare to go to the hospital alone. Please accompany me."

"No! Wait until I finish listening." After saying that, the old lady grabbed her and asked her to sit down with her.

Zhou Xiaozheng indicated that Zhou Jiao was fine. This time when he went to the Gu family to pay his respects, he had already told the old lady the truth. His revenge was complete, so why should he not tell her?

After hearing the whole story, Zhou Xiaozheng raised his lip sarcastically, "You're even understating it. Even your grandfather couldn't handle it. If you told him the whole story, I wonder if he would be furious."

The two girls looked at each other in surprise and asked cautiously, "Jiaojiao, now I finally understand why the Lin family lives so well. Don't feel burdened. It's better not to have this grandma."

"That's right, don't bother with them anymore. They're a real bunch of scum! They usually look decent, but I didn't expect them to be so bad. Your mother is no good either. With a mother like that..."

The older girl quickly covered her mouth and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Grandma Cheng, Uncle Zhou, we're leaving first." After saying that, she hurriedly pulled the other person away.

Zhou Jiao also heard from inside the house, "Why are you covering me? This is not how a mother should be. If it were me, I would have disowned her long ago. You are still being so polite to her, you are dreaming..."

Listening to the sounds fading away outside, Old Mrs. Cheng sighed. She stretched out her arms, hugged Zhou Jiao tightly in her arms, and patted her back gently.

Seeing this, Aunt Chen quickly took the child to the outer study. She was shocked by what happened tonight. She didn't expect that this child who always smiled all day would endure such a big injustice.

Thinking of the rumors circulating in the compound, she finally understood why the relationship between the Zhou and Lin families was so strained. Sigh... I wonder if Lin Lishan can still stay in the Zhou family.

In the bedroom, the three of them looked at each other in silence.

After a long time, Zhou Xiaozheng broke the silence in the room, "Jiaojiao, let's separate your mom."

When it comes to the person who knows Zhou Xiaozheng best, Zhou Jiao believes no one can compare to her. This statement carries too much meaning. If her parents had separated during their first meeting, she would have approved.

But Zhou Jiao, who had witnessed their lives and knew her father well, understood that love was unreasonable. Her mother loved her father deeply, but her father also loved her mother.

Seeing Zhou Xiaozheng's heavy expression, Zhou Jiao spoke a few words that also determined Lin Lishan's fate.

"Dad, it's better to be still than to move. My mom is innocent, you two have feelings for each other, and this family needs stability. I feel at ease with her by your side. I need a mother with a simple mind, a mother who puts you first, and even more, a mother who will never betray you. The outside world is too tiring and too complicated, so let's keep it as it is."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaozheng was silent for a moment and then nodded.

Zhou Jiao took his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder. "Dad, it was an accident last night. My mom didn't mean any other things, and she didn't force me. I just lost control of what I thought about. Don't blame her. It's too hard for her to be caught between our two families."

Zhou Xiaozheng didn't know what words to use. He was disappointed in his wife, but even more heartbroken for his child. He knew his daughter too well. It was Jiaojiao's request that he hide the truth from his wife, but getting her to confess that night wasn't as simple as they'd told him. His wife must have touched their daughter's bottom line, and that bottom line was probably him. As intelligent as she was, she was adept at understanding other people's minds. Haha... Shanshan was upset with him.

"Dad, we still have to go to the hospital. Aunt, I'll leave the house and the children to you." After Zhou Jiao said that, she pulled him up and smiled at him.

"Go quickly and come back soon. Remember not to bother with them. Come back after you've seen Old Lin." Old Mrs. Cheng warned her worriedly. After sending the father and daughter out, she stood there in a daze.
