Chapter 231
"Just lie down and rest." Mother Zhong handed over a piece of cut apple. "You had such a hard time before, and now you've had several surgeries. The doctor said you needed to rest, but you insisted on being discharged. I let you come back not to make you worry about other things, but to let you rest well."
"You, whether you're in Hong Kong or Suzhou, you're always worried. Others are so happy when they can rest. Our family is not without money, but you can't stay idle at all."
Father Zhong said with a smile: "I am used to being poor, so I can't rest for a while. I am just like that. Even if I have money, I don't want to stop."
"It's time for you to take a break," said Zhong's mother. "Look at them now. The children have all grown up. Siqi has found a partner. Fang He is a good child, beautiful and outstanding. And look at our Qiao Qiao, she's good at everything she does and her business is thriving."
"You, just come home with me and plant some flowers and plants."
Mr. Zhong smiled but said nothing. Zhong Qiao knew that he didn't want to be idle. After all, he started from scratch in Hong Kong and founded a business. For a person who has worked his way up from the bottom, he naturally doesn't want to lose his value.
Even if it was manual labor or carving, he wanted to prove his worth.
"Oh, right." Father Zhong held it in for a long time, but finally brought the topic to the one they didn't want to face. "You...Uncle Lin, did you find him?"
Zhong Qiao and Zhong's mother were both silent at this moment.
They did not hide the matter about Uncle Lin. After confessing it to Father Zhong, he was silent for a long time, as if he was still thinking about the truth of it.
But this time he had no way to excuse Xiaolin, because he had indeed disappeared completely. Xiaolin disappeared when he was attacked.
Sometimes many things actually have signs from the beginning, but he just doesn't want to believe it. Now that he has learned his lesson and realized his mistake, he realizes that it is too late to regret.
Zhong Qiao said, "Dad, don't worry. I've already asked them to look for him. Based on the current clues, he probably hasn't left Suzhou yet. He came here illegally, and his ID card is illegal. Not only can he not find a job, but even his survival is a problem."
Mr. Zhong was even more hesitant to speak. After hearing this, he seemed to have understood what Zhong Qiao wanted to express.
A person with a black ID card who came here illegally naturally has no way to live as openly as they do. In addition, he has no money and it is difficult for him to survive in Suzhou. But he cannot be found anywhere, as if he has disappeared from the face of the earth.
What does this mean? It means someone is secretly protecting him!
This kind of extraordinary ability can even hide Xiao Lin so deeply, and the other party may be powerful.
As the saying goes, the people should not fight against the officials. If this is really the case, then there will be big problems.
Father Zhong was a little nervous: "You didn't tell anyone about looking for Xiaolin, right?"
Zhong Qiao knew what he was worried about and shook his head: "No, I kept this matter very secret and only told a few close people."
"Our neighbors, including several other brothers and sisters-in-law, don't know."
"That's good." Father Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. "We don't know the situation yet, so let's not alert them. After all, we are a small family in Suzhou now, so we can't act too loudly."
Zhong Qiao said, "Don't worry, Dad."
"I will never let go of anyone who harms our family, and I will never misunderstand any good person."
Her father was attacked, and she would never let the attacker off easily.
Since Mr. Zhong woke up, Zhong Siqi no longer has to keep watch every day. Instead, he takes care of the children at home, and Fang He occasionally comes to help.
Just now, when they heard that Mr. Zhong had returned home to recuperate, the two sisters came to visit him with some supplements.
"Uncle." Fang Nan was the first to enter, her face full of worry.
"Uncle, how are you?"
Fang Nan rushed to the bed.
"I heard about your situation and wanted to come see you early this morning, but the people at the hospital said you needed to rest, so I didn't dare disturb you. As soon as we heard you were home, we came here immediately."
After not seeing each other for a few days, Fang Nan's little mouth started chattering. Before Mr. Zhong could come to his senses, she continued to talk a lot.
"My dad asked us to give these to you. He was accidentally hit by a car before, and he took these supplements. As the saying goes, it takes 100 days to heal a broken bone, and the effect of the medicine is the same. Once you finish taking these, you will definitely be healed."
Fang He said nothing, but just covered Zhong's father with the pile of supplements behind him, like a quilt.
"Okay, okay." Father Zhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment. "Go back and thank your dad for me. It's such a big expense."
Fang Nan glanced at Zhong Qiao beside him, and suddenly bumped her elbow without saying a word. Zhong Qiao immediately understood what he meant, and then the two of them made up an excuse to go outside.
Hospital corridor.
Fang Nan's face was filled with worry. "Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, do you remember when you asked me to deal with Fan Ming?"
Zhong Qiao nodded: "I remember. What's wrong?"
"Isn't he ashamed yet? Will he continue to pester your sister?"
Fang He is now Si Qi's target, her future sister-in-law. Zhong Qiao is determined to help, so he said impatiently, "If it doesn't work out, I'll kick him out with you. This kind of person is like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. Let him lose face once and he will learn his lesson."
Fang Nan sighed, "You're truly a prophet. But it's not just this one incident. Fan Ming has made a comeback and is guarding my door every day. If I hadn't discovered him following Xiao He last time, my silly sister wouldn't have known she was being targeted until now."
"Tell me about Fan Ming, why is he so persistent? He already has a wife and children, yet he's always flirting with young girls. In ancient times, such a person would have been thrown into a pig cage. We're too kind not to teach him a lesson."
"But here he is, hanging from a tree, determined to harass my sister."
"Fan Ming comes from a poor family, and he has a wife and children to support." Zhong Qiao analyzed the connection. "And your sister is soft-hearted, has no opinions of her own, is well-off, and is easy to manipulate. If she weren't with my Siqi, I'm afraid Fan Ming would do something even more terrifying."
"Never offer men the determination to climb the ladder. They laugh at poverty and prostitution, but when it comes to them, they all want to cling to their thighs."
Zhong Qiao said, "Well, I'll talk to Si Qi later and ask him to escort Fang He home every morning and evening. You guys should also talk to the police station to prevent Fan Ming from getting desperate and doing something uncontrollable."
Fang Nan nodded. "It's the only way. My sister has only been dating him for two years, and I didn't expect to meet someone like him. Tell me, he's in the wrong to begin with, yet he shamelessly harasses my sister. Why can't he just let her go?!"
