What exactly is going on with Liu Zi?
She handed her perfectly good child over to her, and the child has learned to be completely unruly. Did she already know that Zhao Gang wasn't her biological son, and was she trying to ruin him by praising him too much?
What Su Yao didn't know was that everything Zhao Gang did required Zhao Pozi's approval. It wasn't that Liu Zi didn't want to hand him over, but Zhao Pozi protected Zhao Gang like the apple of her eye, not letting anyone touch him. What could she do?
Zhao Gang clutched his stomach, lay down on the sofa, and let out a loud, rude burp.
The TV in the living room was showing Journey to the West. Zhao Gang used his greasy, dirty hands to grab a blanket from the side and cover himself with it.
Su Yao was about to explode. Those were silk quilts from Hangzhou, costing over a thousand yuan a set, and they couldn't be washed with water; if they got oil on them, they'd be ruined.
She rushed over in a few steps, snatched the blanket, and tenderly wiped away the marks on it.
Zhao Gang was startled by her and glanced at her impatiently.
A tattered quilt, how stingy! His grandmother was right, this woman is too low-class to be his mother.
At least Liu Zi has a good family background and has treated him fairly well. If she comes back and apologizes to him, he might consider forgiving her.
Sizzle!
Zhao Gang curled his lip, not taking Su Yao's livid face to heart at all. She was always accommodating to him when his father and grandmother were around, but now that they weren't there, she showed her true colors.
Su Yao was thinking more deeply. Now she was starting to have second thoughts about marrying Zhao Qian. With a mother-in-law like Zhao Pozi and a son like Zhao Gang, she figured it wouldn't be long before she turned into a haggard old woman like Liu Zi.
No flower in the garden smells as sweet as a wild one. As long as she wins Zhao Qian's heart, and considering that Zhao Gang was born from her womb, her future will be pretty good.
It seems she has to strike first and find another girl like Liu Zi, who comes from a good family and has a simple personality; of course, someone less attractive would be even better.
The next day, Su Yao took Zhao Gang back to the villa.
The person who opened the door was Zhao Gang's aunt, and her tone was fairly polite. Su Yao didn't want to deal with these bumpkins, so she snorted and left.
Zhao Gang's aunt watched Su Yao walk away gracefully, then spat and closed the door.
Zhao Gang rushed back to his house and found two dirty little boys playing with his toy cars inside the open doorway.
"Who are you? Who gave you permission to touch my toys? Get out!" Zhao Gang charged forward like a cannonball, knocking the two men away.
"ah!"
Wow~
Two cries rang out one after the other. Several men who were playing cards downstairs heard the noise and all ran upstairs.
Inside the house, Zhao Gang proudly held his race car, his face expressionless, but he was a little nervous inside. His father and grandmother were not home, only a few cousins were there. Would they beat him?
When Zhao Gang's fourth uncle saw that his son had hit his lip, his eyes immediately sharpened. "That little bastard, how dare he hit someone!"
Zhao Gang's legs went weak, but remembering what his grandmother had said, he shouted, "This is my home, and these are all my toys. It's wrong for them to steal them. If you dare to bully me because of this, my dad will send you all back to your hometown when he gets back."
Zhao Gang's uncle patted his fourth brother on the shoulder, signaling him not to argue with the child.
The group of men exchanged glances, each seeing hesitation in the other's eyes.
"They're too noisy. Take them away right now. I need to rest." Seeing that he had intimidated these people, Zhao Gang immediately put on airs and gave the order.
Two men stepped forward and took the still-crying child outside.
The group walked downstairs in fear, but after taking only two steps, they heard the door behind them slam shut with a loud bang.
"This little..."
The veins on Lao Si's forehead bulged. He was always short-tempered, and he wouldn't have been so indulgent towards Zhao Gang if he hadn't needed Zhao Qian's help.
"What are you doing messing around with a kid? Don't forget our mission this time," the leader said lightly.
"I'll find a chance to teach this kid a lesson sooner or later," the fourth brother said in a low voice.
Su Yao, posing as Zhao Qian's friend, went to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about some information and even met with Zhao Qian.
In just one day, Zhao Qian seemed to have changed completely. His hair was messy, his eyes were bloodshot, bruises had appeared on his chin, and his clothes were wrinkled.
Su Yao's heart skipped a beat; she hadn't seen Zhao Qian like this in almost ten years.
The village scoundrel of yesteryear has transformed into a highly educated individual.
After that, Zhao Qian paid extra attention to his appearance, and white shirts, black trousers, and black leather shoes became his standard attire.
But now his shirt was stained, and the heels of his leather shoes were stepped on, making him look like a homeless person.
It seems this matter is serious!
As Zhao Qian's bedmate, she knew all too well what Zhao Qian had done, and if it were found out, he would go to jail.
"Go out now and bail my mother out." Zhao Qian's eyes were cold. He was now certain that he had been tricked by that wretched woman, Liu Zi.
"Bail out Auntie?" Su Yao was taken aback.
"Yes, it's not a big deal for my mom. It should be easy to find a lawyer to come over."
Zhao Qian knew that getting out of this situation wouldn't be easy; he estimated he'd be sentenced to several years in prison. He needed to get his mother out first, as the old lady had a sum of money hidden away, which was his means to make a comeback.
"Okay, I'll go find a lawyer right away!" Su Yao put on a worried expression and told Zhao Qian to take good care of herself inside, and that she would come back.
As soon as Su Yao left the police station, she immediately took a taxi to the Zhao family's house. It was Zhao Gang's aunt who opened the door.
She wondered why Su Yao had come back again.
Su Yao suppressed her racing heart and walked into the Zhao family home with a blank expression.
"Zhao Qian asked me to come and get some things. There's an old leader who can save him, so I have to go there. Zhao Gang needs to ask his cousins for help first." Su Yao coaxed the Zhao family and went upstairs to Zhao's mother's bedroom and Zhao Qian's study.
Although she didn't live here, she still knew all the places where things were hidden in the house, and she managed to figure it all out by coaxing her good son, Zhao Gang.
Su Yao swept up most of Granny Zhao's gold and silver jewelry, jade and gemstones, and cash hidden under the bed and put them into her bag.
Zhao Qian's study has a safe, but only he knows the combination; Su Yao can't open it either.
He had no choice but to rummage through the drawer and take out a few luxury watches, which he then put in his bag.
Before going downstairs, Su Yao locked both rooms from the inside, fearing that things would be exposed too quickly.
He swaggered away under the uncertain gazes of the Zhao family.
"I have a feeling there's something wrong with that woman," Aunt Si said, still worried.
"Fourth brother, go upstairs and take a look." The eldest brother thought for a moment and then asked Zhao Laosi to go upstairs to check.
"Okay, brother!"
