Zhou Hongyu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "Shouldn't you be in the hospital resting during your pregnancy?"
Qi Fenglian, who had been waiting for her on her way home, slowly walked out of the deserted alley, her hands nervously covering her stomach, her face pale.
"Take this money and use your connections to get Chairman Lin out!"
That's the father of her child; he absolutely cannot be harmed!
Zhou Hongyu crossed her arms: "What does this have to do with me? You're overthinking it. You can't give me any orders!"
"You!" Qi Fenglian gasped in pain.
She clutched her stomach tightly with both hands, her face several shades paler: "You say it's okay, but who believes you! Don't think I don't know he's interested in you! He's fallen to this state! You can't just stand by and watch him die!"
Zhou Hongyu laughed out loud: "I've done it, so what can you do about it?"
Qi Fenglian felt dizzy and lightheaded. The child in her womb was not yet born, but the child's father was about to die!
Zuo Tiantian described Chairman Lin's situation as extremely serious, and Qi Fenglian felt that if the relationship wasn't right, Chairman Lin was very likely to be shot.
Zhou Hongyu crossed her arms and sneered, telling her for the sake of the child, "Anyway, no one will die!"
"You knew all along!" Qi Fenglian exclaimed.
"Hmph, what does it have to do with me!" With that, Zhou Hongyu, not wanting to get entangled with her any further, strode forward.
Qi Fenglian clutched the envelope containing the money tightly behind her back, gritting her teeth.
She has difficulty moving around, so let's wait a few days. If what Zhou Hongyu said is true, then there's no need to waste this money.

Lin Haiyang is far more capable than people imagine.
They found a way to get out of the predicament the very next day.
— Hooliganism is a trivial matter.
— He simply chose to marry his mistress, with whom he had been caught cheating, making it legal, and of course, nothing happened.
Zhou Hongyu was stunned when she heard Chen Zhaodi recounting the latest news. This person was truly extraordinary!
Just then, Liu Pozi's scream came from the courtyard across the street.
"Something's happened! Something's happened! Help! Someone, please!"
The neighbors in the alley rushed over to help, and someone called an ambulance.
Granny Liu was wailing in the yard: "What kind of daughter-in-law did I marry? Such a troublemaker! Yesterday the doctor told her to stay in the hospital to protect the pregnancy, but she insisted on going home. Now look what happened, we'll have to empty our savings for her and the baby!"
Qi Fenglian was advised by the doctor to stay in bed to protect the pregnancy. Granny Liu's attitude towards her softened slightly, after all, she was indeed pregnant with the Liu family's child.
Qi Fenglian insisted on going home from the hospital, and she agreed.
In her opinion, hospitals were all scams, and it didn't matter where she stayed in bed to rest during her pregnancy. She never expected that something like this would happen!
After thinking it over, Granny Liu could only blame Qi Fenglian, who was making a fuss about going home.
The ambulance took Qi Fenglian away, and Chen Zhaodi got goosebumps.
She felt a bit uneasy: "Aunt Bai, who used to work with me in the workshop, wants to invite me to her second daughter's wedding banquet with Chairman Lin. Should I still go? Will something terrible happen to me?!"
Chen Zhaodi couldn't understand what had to do with Qi Fenglian, her former lover, that Aunt Bai's second daughter was getting married to Chairman Lin. Her reaction was too much!
“Go! Why wouldn’t I go!” Zhou Hongyu had a good reason: “This wedding banquet is sure to be lively. Go and see for yourself, then come back and tell me about it!”
Hearing this, Chen Zhaodi perked up.
"Okay, I'll go!"
*
Chen Zhaodi went to the wedding banquet with a "the more the merrier" attitude, but returned with a gloomy face.
Zhou Hongyu then asked her what happened.
Chen Zhaodi put down the two large portions of leftover food, her tone unusually harsh.
"I thought that Mr. Bai, who's always been second-in-command, remembered me and specially sent me a wedding invitation to his wedding banquet. I even gave him a 20-yuan red envelope. Little did I know that he invited me there just to see me make a fool of myself!"
"You didn't go, so you have no idea how smug she was! I was eating when she brought her second daughter, who thought she'd married into a good family, over and started spouting nonsense. If it weren't for the delicacies on the table, I would have smashed her head with a bowl!"
Zhou Hongyu tried to recall Aunt Bai's appearance: meek and submissive, lacking presence, a pushover. Was this the kind of person who got arrogant after selling her daughter for a good price?
Sure enough, all the suffering she endured in her life was worth it!
Chen Zhaodi became more and more agitated as she spoke: "You didn't go with us, so you didn't see it. That Bai woman, who's been the second oldest for ages, was so arrogant. She grabbed her second daughter's hand and came up to me to ask when our family was having our wedding. She really... made me so angry!"
Yes, that touched the heart of the eldest son's wife, Zhou Hongyu nodded.
Chen Zhaodi slapped her thigh: "Just because Bai Piaopiao got a good price, everyone in the Bai family has changed. You'll see next time you meet them!"
It's unbearable to look at!
Bai Piaopiao cried until her eyes were swollen, but she was still held by the hand by Aunt Bai and shown off to everyone about her rich and generous son-in-law.
Behind her back, countless people cursed Bai Piaopiao on her joyous day.
The only thing that made Chen Zhaodi happy at the wedding banquet was the two large portions of leftovers that she shamelessly packed up and brought back.
"That Bai guy, who's been second to none for years, gave me a hard time, so she'll have to make things difficult for me too. Before I left, I grabbed her and asked her to pack up a whole table of food to take back. She was trying to impress someone else at the time, so she had to do it no matter what!"
Chen Zhaodi opened the bag and showed it off: "Honestly, if Chairman Lin hadn't done so many bad things, he could have found any wife he wanted! Look at this food, lobster, abalone... and salmon, it's so tender and smooth. None of these dishes have been touched, we're saving them to take home and eat tonight!"
However, since there was no refrigerator at home, they had to store it at the refrigerator at the alleyway convenience store.
