Chapter 254: Harming Others and Harming Yourself 2 If there is no chance to kidnap her child, then...
Lu Yuan's child is gone.
She got up early but didn't wait for Zhang's mother to come and cook for her. She was too lazy to cook, so she planned to go to the grocery store to buy some food. However, she fell as soon as she went out.
The moment she fell to the ground, she realized something was wrong and subconsciously covered her stomach, causing her arm to hit the ground. She fell heavily and fainted instantly from the severe pain.
Now that she was awake and had opened her eyes, the first thing she did was touch her belly.
Director Zhang held her hand and comforted her, "Yuanyuan, don't be afraid. I'm here."
Lu Yuan stared at him blankly and asked weakly, "Is the child gone?"
Director Zhang sighed silently and said nothing.
Lu Yuan burst into tears. She actually didn't care about the child that much, but now that the child was gone, how could she reconcile with her husband?
She had no way to bring Yao Zhizhi down, and she had no way to turn things around. She could only rely on her pregnancy to give orders to her parents-in-law and enjoy a peaceful life. She didn't expect that even such a simple wish could not be fulfilled. Who did she offend?
She cried heart-wrenchingly, and no matter how Director Zhang tried to persuade her, it was useless. In the end, Director Zhang had to shut up and just silently accompany her in crying.
After crying enough, she finally asked, "Why didn't your mother come? Why? Did she do it on purpose? Does she not want to take care of me? But I'm pregnant with your child, her grandson. How could she be so cruel?"
Director Zhang didn't like what he heard and quickly explained, "No, it's been raining a lot lately, and my mom has rheumatism and her legs are hurting a lot. She's old, after all, and it's hard for her to compare with us young people. Yuanyuan, I know you're heartbroken about losing your child, but don't let your imagination run wild. Your parents care about you very much. Even when you fell, it was my dad who notified me. He was so worried and told me that we could have another child, but nothing must happen to the adults."
Lu Yuan looked at him suspiciously: "How did your father know?"
Factory Director Zhang explained, "An acquaintance passed by and saw you fall. He called him, but he was busy verifying the grain taxes handed in by the rural commune and didn't have time to come over, so he called me. Don't misunderstand them. Take care of your health first. Nothing is more important than you."
Lu Yuan hadn't expected that even after she had a miscarriage, the man would still side with his parents. She was furious, but she was also afraid of exposing her true colors and alienating him. She could only swallow her anger and nodded, "It's my fault. I'm so sad. Don't take it to heart."
"Silly boy, you and I are husband and wife, why are you saying this?" Director Zhang quickly stood up. "Wait, I'll make you some brown sugar water. You've lost so much blood, you need to replenish it."
Lu Yuan looked at his back silently and clenched her fists silently.
She couldn't understand why she fell down when it hadn't rained last night. She recalled the feeling, as if she had stepped on something slippery and greasy, which caused her to lose her balance and fall to the ground.
Could it be that someone deliberately set her up for this accident? She didn't believe it was such a coincidence that her mother-in-law didn't come and she fell.
When Director Zhang came in with the brown sugar water, she obediently took it and gulped it down. After drinking it, she wiped her mouth and asked, "Did you go to my place as soon as you got the call? Did you check the ground over there to see if you found anything like banana peels?"
"No, there are only some leaves on the ground, nothing else." Director Zhang looked confused. "Do you think you stepped on something?"
"I don't know. Can I be discharged from the hospital today? I want to go back and take a look myself." Lu Yuan didn't want to sit and wait for death. If someone really wanted to harm her, she had to prepare early and fight back.
Director Zhang took the empty bowl, stood up and said, "That should be fine. I'll go ask Doctor Qian."
Soon, Director Zhang returned and began to pack his things. "Doctor Qian said that if you're not feeling unwell, you can be discharged. Come on, I'll take you home."
Lu Yuan struggled to sit up. Only then did she realize that she was wearing a sanitary belt, most likely done by her man.
It's a pity that the man is a good man, but he had to divorce her because of his identity as the factory director.
She also didn't want to lose her current good life and wouldn't be stupid enough to force him to remarry. However, now that the child was gone, what if his parents urged him to find a new one again?
She frowned all the way, thinking over and over again, and decided that she had to start with Yao Zhizhi.
Since there is no chance to contact the child who abducted her, I might as well abduct her herself.
It would be best to abduct her to the countryside, find a place like a cellar, lock her up, and then let her hide outside. Let a mad dog in to scare the man named Yao, and force her to write a letter of repentance, saying that the submission incident that year was slander.
But how can I lure Yao Zhizhi over here?
She is the editor-in-chief, and both of her magazines need submissions. So, should I write an article and trick her into coming over for a meeting?
Having made up her mind, Lu Yuan seemed to see hope of embracing happiness again.
When she returned to her residence, she first checked the door. Strangely, there was nothing on the ground except fallen leaves.
She specifically asked the man to help her step on it twice, and it wasn't slippery at all.
Director Zhang looked helpless: "Look, I told you, there's nothing but fallen leaves."
"There's not even any blood? Don't you find it strange?" Lu Yuan still felt that she had been murdered. This was an instinctive intuition, strong and lasting.
Director Zhang didn't find it strange and explained, "Maybe a neighbor was passing by and helped clean up because they didn't want to scare the children."
Lu Yuan didn't believe it, so she immediately went to her neighbor's house and knocked on the door. It turned out that the neighbor really gave the same explanation.
Lu Yuan returned to her residence in silence, feeling uneasy. She wondered if the person who harmed her had bribed her neighbors.
Otherwise, why would a neighbor who had no connection with her ask her to clean the road in front of his door?
If you are afraid of scaring the children, then walk to the side and don't look.
She told the man about her thoughts, but he thought she was having wild thoughts because of her miscarriage and comforted her by saying, "Don't think of your neighbor so selfishly. After all, the road is so narrow, there's no way to completely bypass it."
Lu Yuan was silent. This man really couldn't get along with her.
If it weren't for the fact that his job as factory director allowed her to enjoy a peaceful life, she really wanted to move to another place, change her identity, and find a good man to marry.
Forget it, I won’t argue with this stupid guy anymore. I’d better find a way to turn things around myself.
Lu Yuan returned to her room silently, found some paper and pen, and prepared to write the manuscript. Unfortunately, her writing skills were average, and she had no idea what kind of manuscript the publishing house needed. It would definitely not work if she just wrote it blindly, so she asked Director Zhang to go to Xinhua Bookstore and buy her the latest issue of the magazine.
Director Zhang took a day off today to take care of her. After returning, he was busy running around, cooking, washing clothes, and cleaning the yard. He was as diligent as a bee.
Lu Yuan looked at the man in the yard from the window and silently clenched her fists. Yao Zhizhi, just wait for me, I will make you pay the price!

Yao Zhizhi came home from get off work for dinner, but her mother-in-law hadn't come back for a long time, so she did as usual, prepared the food, put it in a basket, and sent it to the police station.
When I got there, I saw that they were indeed dealing with a family dispute.
According to the information provided by the system, the dozen or so people arguing in front of them were from the same parents.
The old man's surname was Tian and the old woman's surname was Ji. They had seven sons and no daughters.
Because he favored the eldest and the youngest sons, the remaining five sons were very dissatisfied and were unwilling to provide for them in their old age.
As for the eldest son's family, since they have many children, they don't want to take care of them personally and are only willing to pay.
As for the Laoxiao family, they only have one child, so they are not busy. However, the Laoxiao is spoiled and gets into trouble all the time. It is good enough that he does not cause trouble for his parents, let alone take care of them.
So they also pushed their parents to other brothers' homes.
Among the other five, only the fourth child's family did not explicitly refuse. The remaining four families pushed each other, and no one was willing to take over this pair of biased parents.
Yao Zhizhi suddenly felt it was ironic. Does the older generation's so-called raising children to provide for old age really work?
Look at this family, they have seven sons, but not one is willing to support them in their old age. How can this not be a naked irony?
She walked over, took her mother-in-law's arm as she was trying to mediate, and said with a smile, "Everyone, take a break. My mother is old and has a bad stomach. Let her eat something first. You can also go home and eat first and come back in the afternoon. The children still have school in the afternoon."
More than a dozen adults looked at each other and refused to leave, fearing that if they left, the other families would go to Director Tang and cry miserably, asking him to take sides.
Yao Zhizhi was helpless: "Then you guys can't starve. My mother can't starve. Come back later."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the office and closed the door. Yao Zhizhi hurriedly brought the food out: "Mom, Tian Laosi can try to get the other six families to pay, and the two of them will take care of it."
Tang Fengyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, let's try it after I finish eating. You should go back and take a nap. You still have to go to work in the afternoon."
"Okay, then take the basket back after you finish eating." Yao Zhizhi was indeed very sleepy. It was autumn and she always felt like she didn't get enough sleep.
When it was time to go to work, I passed by the police station and found that the Tian family was still arguing inside. My mother-in-law was sitting calmly in the office, and arranged for Xiao Jin and Lao He to persuade them.
Yao Zhizhi couldn't help but laugh: "Mom has also realized that she is lazy. It's time to let Xiao Jin experience some experience. This guy always doesn't want to deal with family disputes."
"Isn't he dreaming of punishing evildoers? Even unfilial sons are evildoers, and great evildoers at that." Qi Changxiao rode his bike to work. "By the way, did you know that Gu Yanni didn't come to work today?"
"Well, Xiao Wei came to me and told me." Yao Zhizhi hoped that Gu Yanni would never come again in the future. This kind of person is too disgusting.
Qi Changxiao pondered for a moment and asked, "If she comes again, can I go to your office?"
Yao Zhizhi didn't refuse this time: "Okay, I'll see if I can arrange a place for you."
"It would be great if she could resign on her own." After all, Qi Changxiao couldn't force anyone to resign, but since Gu Yanni's man knew about her, he should do something, right?
At this moment, Gu Yanni was looking at her father with tears in her eyes, with an innocent look on her face: "Dad, please persuade my mom. I can't have children. Continuing to live like this will only cause trouble for myself. Just let me get a divorce."
