Then he looked through the rearview mirror and saw that Bai Xiaoxi was also sleeping peacefully. His heart finally calmed down, but his mind was very active.
She knew in her heart that Bai Shan would never ignore what she said, so it was impossible for her to lose her phone. She called again at noon, but the phone was still turned off.
She was certain that Bai Shan's phone had run out of battery. On the other hand, she must have called, and for quite some time. Her grandmother definitely wouldn't call her. Bai Shan didn't have many friends, and after she got married, her interactions with them became even rarer.
Then there is only one possibility, it is her mother-in-law.
Thinking of Bai Shan's mother-in-law, Bai Ling's hand holding the steering wheel bulged with veins. They left together in their previous life, but Bai Shan died and they were still alive. She had no idea what happened in between. Of course, she tried to find Bai Shan's parents-in-law and others to ask the truth of the matter, but she never found them.
Bai Ling kept praying that they were all dead!
Bai Shan's parents-in-law, the Xia family, are well-known throughout Jing City. Her father-in-law is a retired military cadre, also known as the old leader. Her eldest son is also a soldier. He died while on a mission, leaving behind a wife who had just become pregnant. It has been Bai Shan's husband who has been taking care of them.
Bai Ling had seen her sister-in-law once, and she was indeed very beautiful. In addition, her family had some money, so Bai Shan's parents-in-law valued her. However... that woman seemed gentle but had ulterior motives. She even had an indescribable feeling for her brother-in-law, Bai Shan's husband.
Bai Ling was not quite sure what this feeling was because she had never been with them. Anyway, it made her extremely uncomfortable. She even tried to test Bai Shan's husband Xia Zhengjun. Fortunately, Xia Zhengjun had no other ideas.
If Xia Zhengjun had not pursued Bai Shan for a long time and had not changed his mind, and Bai Shan had not obviously had feelings for him, Bai Ling would never have let Bai Shan marry into such a complicated family that clearly looked down on them.
But the fact is, haha, the huge villa of their Xia family could not accommodate the youngest son's wife, so not long after the marriage, they found her another place to live, under the euphemism of letting the two of them live together.
In reality, he used his remaining power to transfer Xia Zhengjun to a military camp outside. He rarely came back once a year, and when he did, he was usually taken home by his parents. And her sister was like the mistress of their son, and they had to hide their meeting from the Xia family.
Even when she got pregnant, people suspected that the child was not from the Xia family. After the child was born, they never even saw him, let alone held a one-month celebration for him. If Bai Shan hadn't stopped her, Bai Ling would have gone to their house to argue with them.
They are poor, but not so poor that they can throw away their self-respect.
Bai Ling didn't dare tell her grandmother and uncle about this for fear of worrying them.
Even more bizarre is that Xia Zhengjun never mentioned the child when he called her when the child was almost one month old. Because Bai Ling had taken care of Bai Shan for more than a month, she knew exactly how Xia Zhengjun and Bai Shan were in contact.
Every conversation would be interrupted by another caller within half a minute, and it was obvious who was calling. Xia Zhengjun, as an officer, had always been secretive and kept in touch with his family, rarely calling them once every six months.
The Xia family guarded against Xia Zhengjun's legally married wife like they were guarding against thieves. Bai Shan was filial and didn't mind, but as her elder sister, she felt pained when she saw it, but she could only obey Bai Shan's filial piety and endure it.
