Chapter 144 Departure
Thanks to the matchmaking of the document, Jiang Yi quickly established a relationship with the Fu family. After a brief meeting, both sides were very satisfied.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. They had a common enemy, Pei Jiuyan, which laid the foundation for their cooperation.
Yun Zhaozhao was unaware of the Fu family's underhanded tactics. She had been pregnant forty days and was finally allowed to go back to work.
Pei Jiuyan originally wanted her to rest a little longer, but Yun Zhaozhao ignored him and was going crazy if she stayed at home any longer.
On the first day she was allowed to go out, she contacted Wen Jingyu and Zhou Xiao. It just so happened that Wen Jingyu was in the capital, and the three of them got together.
Where is my precious daughter?
Zhou Xiao asked as soon as they met.
"at home."
"Why didn't you bring her out? Oh, right, she's too small. If you ask me, we should have gone to your house today. What's the point of coming out? We're all family, aren't we?"
Zhou Xiao and Wen Jingyu both felt the same way. After all, the little princess was so adorable; they had never seen such a cute and easy-going child.
When her daughter was mentioned, Yun Zhaozhao smiled and said, "You can visit her at home when you have time."
Now, besides Aunt Chen, there are two nannies at home, both of whom were hired by Pei Jiuyan. I heard that Pei Jiuyan vetted them for a long time before choosing them.
Pei Jiuyan always cared more about the children than she did, so Yun Zhaozhao was happy to be a hands-off manager and leave everything to Pei Jiuyan.
Zhou Xiao asked a lot of questions, but Yun Zhaozhao didn't know the answers. Zhou Xiao's eyes almost popped out of their sockets: "Ancestor, your child has been born for more than a month, how come you don't know anything?"
Yun Zhaozhao said matter-of-factly, "Someone is taking care of me."
Yun Zhaozhao felt no guilt whatsoever when it came to using Pei Jiuyan, since he was the father of her child. Although he himself didn't know it, she did.
Zhou Xiao gave Yun Zhaozhao a thumbs up; she was truly impressed by Yun Zhaozhao's performance.
"I heard Fu Shangluo has come out?"
Wen Jingyu, who was standing to the side, asked in a low voice.
"Um."
Yun Zhaozhao nodded and briefly explained the agreement she had reached with the Fu family. Zhou Xiao snorted, "He really got off easy."
Although he spent half a month in the police station, everyone knew he definitely wouldn't suffer inside.
"I don't know how he became like this."
Wen Jingyu was still somewhat wistful, knowing that Fu Shangluo was definitely the "other people's child" in their circle.
Even though Fu Shangluo was a few years older than them, he was still the "other people's child" in their parents' eyes. Even his older brother used to be compared to Fu Shangluo by their parents until their parents had an accident, and that matter was not over until then.
"Stay away from him from now on."
Yun Zhaozhao felt that Fu Shangluo's emotions were not very stable.
"Hey, isn't that him?"
Zhou Xiao suddenly gestured to the side, and Yun Zhaozhao and Wen Jingyu looked over and saw Fu Shangluo and a man walking towards the private room.
"That person seems somewhat familiar."
"Jiang Yi."
Yun Zhaozhao recognized the other person at a glance. How did these two get mixed up together?
Pei Jiuyan couldn't remember Jiang Yi, nor did she know what kind of relationship she had with Jiang Yi, but it was definitely not good.
When these two unrelated people suddenly got together, Yun Zhaozhao couldn't help but become wary.
"I'm going to make a phone call."
After saying that, Yun Zhaozhao went outside and dialed Pei Jiuyan's number.
“Zhaozhao”.
After only two rings, Pei Jiuyan answered Yun Zhaozhao's call. He would not let Yun Zhaozhao lose track of him again.
"I just saw Fu Shangluo and Jiang Yi together."
"Where are you? Stay away from those two."
Pei Jiuyan didn't think about anything else; the only thing on his mind was Yun Zhaozhao's safety.
"I'm fine with Whale and Xiaoxiao."
Okay, don't be alone.
After giving his instructions, Pei Jiuyan said, "Don't worry, I know the two of them are in contact."
This isn't the first time; those two probably want to do something to him.
Seeing that Pei Jiuyan understood, Yun Zhaozhao didn't say anything. She hung up the phone and was about to go inside when she saw Zeng Li coming out of the mall across the street. Zeng Li looked even worse than the last time they met. She couldn't help but call out, "Sister Zeng Li."
Seeing Yun Zhaozhao, Zeng Li was also a little surprised. She walked over to Yun Zhaozhao, looked her up and down and said, "You look good. It seems you had a good postpartum period."
Yun Zhaozhao nodded: "Yes, the child is very well-behaved and doesn't make a fuss."
Moreover, with Pei Jiuyan and the postpartum nanny Aunt Chen around, she didn't have to exert any energy and got plenty of rest every day.
"Sister Zeng Li, are you sick?"
Yun Zhaozhao asked tentatively, "Zeng Li seems to be in really bad shape."
Zeng Li gave a wry smile and touched her face: "It's terrible, isn't it? I've really become a haggard old woman."
Before Yun Zhaozhao could speak, she changed the subject and said, "I can't leave Huang Chao for the time being."
"Why?"
Yun Zhaozhao was somewhat surprised. Zeng Li had been so resolute when she came last time, and she thought the matter would be settled quickly.
"He contacted my family."
Zeng Li hadn't told her close friends about this, but for some reason, she felt an urge to confide in Yun Zhaozhao.
“My family told me to think it over again. They said that our children are already so old, and it would affect both of them.”
As Zeng Li spoke, a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes, and a sarcastic smile played on her lips.
She's not stupid, how could she not know what her family is thinking?
The child is only a small part of the reason; the main reason is that Huang Chao is currently in a high position.
She herself found it ironic.
Back then, Huang Chao was nobody, but he relied on his family to get to where he is today. Now, she has to be subservient to Huang Chao.
It was because of this experience that she realized her happiness meant nothing to her family.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Yun Zhaozhao: "I envy you."
It's common knowledge that the Yun family dotes on their daughter; it's genuine love, not like the way she does.
Seeing Zeng Li like this, Yun Zhaozhao felt a pang of sadness: "So, are you just going to leave it like this?"
She absolutely could not do it.
Once she sets her mind to something, she is determined to do it. Whether it was pursuing Pei Jiuyan back then or resolutely divorcing him later, it was all because she wanted to.
Zeng Li didn't speak this time. Yun Zhaozhao looked at her for a while and said, "Sister Zeng Li, if you need my help, just let me know. I have some friends here, so I'll get them in first."
As she was about to leave, Zeng Li asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"
"Leave!"
Yun Zhaozhao looked up at her: "This is no longer a question of whether we can make do. Even for the sake of the two children, we must sever all ties with him."
Yun Zhaozhao's words were like a sudden release for Zeng Li from her days of struggle; she felt as if the shackles binding her were gone.
She said slowly, "You're right! Let's get a divorce!"
What's the point of keeping a man like that around? He's not even qualified to be recycled.
