"Xiao Qi." Zhou Jing met Meng Qidi's happy face at the school gate and quickly came over to greet her.
"Why are you here so early? Don't you have classes in the morning?" Meng Qidi asked.
"You have to report. Professor Zhao is your teacher, so you definitely don't have this worry." Zhou Jing pouted and looked around. "Something big happened yesterday. I guess you don't know about it yet?"
Meng Qidi raised her eyebrows. She didn’t come to school yesterday because she had no classes.
"That Meng Yuzhen is really amazing."
"What do you mean?"
"Because Professor Zhao is her uncle, she has a lot of suitors behind her now, and a lot of people served her food yesterday. So, is she really Professor Zhao's niece?"
Meng Qidi raised her eyebrows slightly, which was exactly what she did.
"God is blind, how can she deserve this!" Especially after seeing this woman being so cruel to her best friend, not helping her, but jumping in to add insult to injury, tut tut...
"Let's go. What's the big deal about whether we're worthy or not?" Meng Qidi turned and walked into the school gate.
Zhou Jing quickly followed up, "What classes do you have this morning?"
“They’re all science subjects.”
After class at noon, Meng Qidi did not go home. She went to the cafeteria to get food and went directly to Zhao Dezhong.
The old man rarely fiddled with his own vegetable garden. He sat at the stone table in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Meng Qidi put the food on the stone table and asked suspiciously.
"Zhao Youwei has gone abroad." The old man said with a hint of self-blame, "Tell me, did we do something wrong? After what we did, the people from the side branch must have thought that guy was useless, so they forced him away."
He understood the nature of those people. Without benefits and interests, they would not be open-hearted. He was the one who harmed this kid...
Meng Qidi twitched her lips, sat down, and opened her lunch box. "Are you overthinking it? What if he wants to leave? Wouldn't it be nice for him to go out for further studies and come back later?"
If Zhao Youwei is really one of the protagonists, it's good that he left. If the two of them become enemies, I don't know if it will cause a big uproar...
The old man was slightly stunned, "Is that true?"
"Ah, what else?" Meng Qidi pushed the lunch box in front of him. "Think about his perseverance over the years. Now he suddenly gives up. I guess he has let it go. He may also want to live his own life and not be influenced by those people."
"It seems so..." Zhao Dezhong nodded in agreement. After she said that, the pressure in his heart was relieved a lot.
"Have a meal?"
Zhao Dezhong then noticed the lunch box on the table. He took a look and said dissatisfiedly, "Why is there no meat? If you have no money, tell me. How can there be no meat?!"
"It's good to be a vegetarian. Look at how much weight you have gained in these days." Meng Qidi lowered her head to eat.
Since the store opened, the old man would go there every time after class. He would either eat chicken burgers or drink milk tea and sparkling water. It would be strange if he didn't get fat, and he wasn't afraid of the three highs.
The old man curled his lips and said, "Isn't he too thin?"
In the Zhao family yard.
Meng Yuzhen delivered the food and prepared to leave.
"Yuzhen." Ge Mei grabbed Meng Yuzhen and begged, "Please stay, Mom is alone..."
Meng Yuzhen shook her hand off, "What's wrong with being alone? Go find your uncle. Don't forget that your mission is not yet completed."
Zhao Hong's hands froze. "Your uncle won't come back from school at all. It's not easy for me to get in with my identity..."
She knew exactly what her identity was, and especially now that Xiaoqi had found his biological father, she dared not act rashly. She valued her life more than money.
"If he doesn't take you with him, won't you find a way to send food in? Don't forget that you are his biological sister, the only relative in this world. Mom, I'm not forcing you as a daughter, but the young master of the Qiu family is not someone you can easily mess with. If you take his money and don't do anything, you will have to bear the consequences yourself."
Meng Yuzhen was so disappointed. She had been living a smooth life these days, but this woman was holding her back. What was the use of having her?
Being threatened by Meng Qidi, Zhao Hong had no choice but to endure it obediently. Now even her own daughter is threatening and intimidating her. Does she really think she is weak and incompetent?
Thinking of this, Zhao Hong straightened her back, "Yuzhen, you don't have to scare me. Everything you have now is given by me. Without your uncle, you are nothing."
Meng Yuzhen's face instantly turned cold, "Really? You also said that you don't have an uncle, so you have nothing too? In a word, if you don't do anything, spit out the two thousand yuan to me, I can't do anything to you. Do you think the Qiu family will let you go?"
Speaking of big families, Zhao Hong used to be fearless, but now she is a little panicked, especially because the Zhao family behind her is not reliable at all.
Glancing at her daughter, she put on a smile and said in a flattering tone, "Yuzhen, look at what you said. We are family. How can we talk behind each other's backs? I was just joking with you. Tomorrow, I will go to see your uncle."
Zhao Hong compromised, and Meng Yuzhen turned away with disdain. That's it?
As soon as Meng Yuzhen left, Zhao Hong's face darkened. She slammed the door shut, glanced at the food on the stone table, and almost threw it away in anger. But thinking that she hadn't eaten, she endured it.
There was a rift between Zhao Hong and her daughter, but Meng Qidi didn't know about it.
"Where are you going?" Ling Xiao had just come back from training and had a day's rest, but he heard that his daughter-in-law was going out.
"Meng family, I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have come to Beijing City, but I haven't visited Grandpa Meng's house yet."
"Meng family? Do you want me to accompany you?" Ling Xiao asked.
"No, it's not easy for you to go out. You have to ask for permission before you can go out. The Meng family is not a dangerous place."
"Can you bear to abandon me?" Ling Xiao looked at her, a trace of grievance flashing in his eyes. He had tried his best to complete the mission and rush back.
"But, I have to accompany my teacher on an experiment tomorrow, so I'm only free today..." Meng Qidi shrugged. She was helpless.
"By the way, I found my biological father."
Ling Xiao was surprised and thought he had heard wrongly, "Biological father?"
"Yes, the third master of the Qiu family." Meng Qidi pulled out a stool and sat down in front of Ling Xiao, telling him everything that had happened in the past few days.
She had unspeakable trust in Ling Xiao. Apart from rebirth and space, there seemed to be nothing else she hid. It was even possible that he had guessed some of it.
Ling Xiao was silent for a long time. "So what you mean is that you suspect that the Meng family was responsible for your mother's accident?"
He really wanted to use the saying "even a tiger won't eat its own cubs", but it seemed that it was not possible. That's right, he didn't want to persuade her and asked if he was overthinking it.
Meng Qidi nodded, "I have some guesses. We can't find any evidence at the scene. Aren't you an expert in this area? You have strong anti-detective abilities. How about we split up today and you go over there and take a look?"
Ling Xiao flicked her forehead in annoyance, "Don't make a fuss, if that's really the case, I should go with you, it's just asking for permission, it's not a big deal."
She was afraid that if the man was the murderer, she would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth if she went there...
