Chapter 178: Fear

Ma Meifang slowly got up from the ground, stood up shakily, and walked towards the table.

When she reached the table, she stretched out her slightly trembling hand and tightly grasped the extremely sharp fruit knife on the table.

Then, she raised the knife without hesitation and stabbed Zhang Huzi fiercely, "Zhang Huzi, you go to hell!"

Zhang Huzi saw this and his face turned pale instantly. He had never expected that Ma Meifang, who was usually gentle and kind, would dare to be so decisive and actually want to kill him.

The knife was getting closer and closer, and Zhang Huzi wanted to dodge, but his body seemed to be fixed, and he couldn't move at all. He could only watch the cold blade stabbing at him.

At this critical moment, Ling Yao quickly reached out and grabbed Ma Meifang's knife-holding hand with amazing speed. At the same time, she snatched the fruit knife with her other hand, "Sister Meifang, don't do anything stupid. It's not worth risking your life for such a despicable person. Think about Dani and the others. What will they do if something happens to you?"

Ling Yao's words were like a basin of cold water that instantly woke Ma Meifang up, making her originally irrational mind gradually clear up, and she was a little scared. She just had only one thought, that is, to kill Zhang Huzi, without considering the consequences at all. Fortunately, Ling Yao stopped her in time, so that no tragedy occurred.

Taking a deep breath, Ma Meifang looked at Zhang Huzi, "Zhang Huzi, don't mess with us in the future, or I will really kill you, or I will die with you." Of course, she was just trying to scare Zhang Huzi. After what happened just now, she no longer had the courage. It didn't matter if she was alone, but she still had three daughters, and she had to consider their future.

Zhang Huzi's heart was beating fast, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. He just realized clearly that Ma Meifang really wanted to kill him.

Old Lady Zhang finally came back to her senses from the shock, and her body was shaking violently uncontrollably.

She glanced at Ma Meifang in horror, then at Zhang Huzi, "Huzi... let's go..." Now she clearly realized that Ma Meifang was no longer the one who allowed her to bully her without saying a word.

"Ma Meifang, don't regret it." After Zhang Huzi said this harsh word, he turned around and walked out the door without looking back.

Old Lady Zhang hurriedly followed.

After the two left, Ma Meifang breathed a sigh of relief, and her body seemed to have suddenly lost its support, as if all her strength had been drained away.

Her legs were weak, and she walked to the table tremblingly, holding on to the table and slowly sat down.

"Mom!"

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Mom, where does it hurt?"

Da Ni, Er Ni, and San Ni surrounded her, staring at Ma Meifang with concern.

Ma Meifang shook her head gently, she stretched out her arms and hugged the three children in her arms, "Mom is fine, just a little tired, you don't have to worry, Mom will be fine after a rest." Fortunately, Ling Yao stopped her just now and didn't let her do anything stupid.

Ling Yao put the fruit knife on the table, "Sister Meifang, don't do stupid things again in the future."

"I know, thank you for helping me again." Ma Meifang looked at Ling Yao gratefully. If Ling Yao hadn't stopped Zhang Huzi in time, she would have been beaten badly by Zhang Huzi just now.

Ling Yao shook her head and smiled, took out a pill and handed it to Ma Meifang, "Take this pill."

"Yes." Ma Meifang took the medicine and put it in her mouth.

Soon, she felt that the pain in her body seemed to have eased a little, and she had more strength.

"Sister-in-law Lu! Your medicine is really effective, I feel much better now."

Ling Yao remembered that she had brought breakfast for them, took out a bag from the bag she was carrying, and handed it to Ma Meifang, "You guys have breakfast first, and then we'll go to the city to see if we can find a house."

"Thank you!" Ma Meifang took the bag, opened it, and saw the big pancakes and fried dough sticks inside. Her eyes suddenly turned red, "Sister-in-law Lu! You are so good to us... I don't know how to thank you... Da Ni, Er Ni, San Ni, thank auntie quickly."

"Thank you, auntie!" Da Ni, Er Ni, San Ni shouted in unison.

Ling Yao smiled and nodded, "Sister Meifang, you can call me Ling Yao from now on."

"Okay, Ling Yao." Ma Meifang smiled. She will remember this kindness firmly in her heart.

Old Lady Zhang caught up with Zhang Huzi, "Huzi, where are you going?" Now that her son is no longer a member of the army, they naturally can no longer live in the military compound, but she is also unwilling to go back to the countryside and live a life of digging for food in the fields and eating one meal at a time.

Zhang Huzi stopped and said, "Mom, please find a guesthouse to stay in first, and we'll talk about it when I come back." Fortunately, his salary has been kept by his mother in these years and has not been taken away by Ma Meifang, otherwise they would have to go back to the countryside.

Old Mrs. Zhang nodded, knowing that her son must be going to look for the woman he was with outside. "Then I'll go to the guesthouse opposite the department store and wait for you."

"Okay." Zhang Huzi responded and walked towards the bus stop opposite.

Zhang Huzi got off the bus and came to a courtyard. Seeing that the gate was not closed, he pushed the door open and walked in.

When he came into the house, he heard a woman's laughter from inside, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Now that he and Ma Meifang have separated, he can be with Liu Mei openly in the future, and Liu Mei is now pregnant with his child.

Thinking of this, Zhang Huzi walked inside.

"I'm so disgusted... I can't stand it anymore... Don't come again... Be careful of the child..."

Just as he was about to push open the door of the room, Zhang Huzi heard Liu Mei's panting from the room, and he froze in place.

"It's okay, our child is not that weak..."

Then, the only sound in the room was the creaking of the bed.

Zhang Huzi clenched his fists tightly, and his joints made crisp cracking sounds due to excessive force.

He raised his feet angrily and kicked the closed door with all his strength.

"Bang!" After a loud bang, the door opened and hit the wall hard.

The two people who were arguing in the room were startled by this sudden change and stood there in a daze, at a loss.

Zhang Huzi stared at Liu Mei with bloodshot eyes, his voice trembling with anger: "Liu Mei, are you worthy of me?" His chest was heaving violently, as if an uncontrollable force was about to burst out. Now he just wanted to kill these two people.

Liu Mei and the man came to their senses, and Liu Mei hid in the man's arms in fear.

The man patted Liu Mei's shoulder gently and looked at Zhang Huzi provocatively, "You are Zhang Huzi, right?"

Zhang Huzi glared at the two of them fiercely, with murderous intent in his eyes.
