Chapter 242 Twins
After retching for a while, I felt a little better, so I washed up and went downstairs.
My dad was talking to my mom about Shen Yixiao, and my dad's voice was full of disdain, "It's impossible to expect this kind of scum to be wholeheartedly devoted. He dragged Xiaoyue on one hand, and was entangled with Lu Xiaoyun on the other. Now that he has just divorced, he immediately announced that he is going to be a father, which means that they have never been separated."
My mother nodded and said, "Well, it's a pity for my Xiaoyue, who suffered so much for him."
"Just get a divorce." My dad didn't say much.
He is now going back to school, and the pressure is not so great because he doesn't have to worry about the information leaking out.
After he finished his meal, he took Li Qingming to kindergarten.
"Mom, I'll be out for a while." After my dad left, I ate something and prepared to go out.
I have already completed the custom painting that Qiu Xinlian wanted and am ready to send it to her.
My mother nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to go find your Aunt Yang later. She has found a nice girl for Zhengnan and wants me to go with her to take a look."
When I heard this, my heart skipped a beat. Is he preparing for another blind date?
Aunt Yang was really too anxious, and we weren't ready to tell her yet.
My mother saw that I didn't look good and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
"It's okay, Mom. I'll go out first." I forced a smile and left in a hurry.
After meeting Qiu Xinlian, I gave the painting to her. She paid the money as agreed. I offered to treat her to a meal. After all, she had helped me a lot and I hadn't treated her to a proper meal yet.
She agreed happily.
During the meal, she suddenly asked me, "Why did you ask about Brother Xiong that day? I later asked someone to investigate and found out that he is now in Country M. He was caught smuggling drugs there not long ago and has been very quiet recently."
"It's nothing, it's just that Xu Zhengnan went to Country M and I'm worried about him." I answered simply.
"How can he be related to Brother Xiong? What is he doing in Country M?" Qiu Xinlian was very surprised.
I sighed, "For some reason, he went there to find someone. That person is likely to be a trusted member of some illegal organization, so I am very worried whether he will run into Brother Xiong."
Brother Xiong’s full name is Huang Zhongxiong. He was born in the underworld in China. Later, he got into trouble and fled to Country M to settle down, where he continued his illegal career until today.
It makes sense that Shen Yixiao is related to him.
Qiu Xinlian thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry too much. Although Brother Xiong is a little arrogant, he is not stupid. He knows who he can afford to offend and who he can't. Xu Zhengnan has the Xu family behind him. If something really happens, the Xu family will investigate to the end."
It sounds simple, but what Qiu Xinlian didn't know was that Xu Zhengnan was not actually familiar with the Xu family, and he didn't want to have anything to do with the Xu family at all.
There was not much point in telling her these things, so I nodded and skipped the topic.
After dinner, Qiu Xinlian received a phone call and her face suddenly changed.
After chatting with the other party for a few words, she hung up the phone.
I was a little worried, "What's wrong?"
"What a coincidence. You mentioned Brother Xiong to me, and I really had to meet him." Qiu Xinlian looked helpless. "I also have a company in Country M. He intercepted a lot of my products. It was naked robbery."
I was a little surprised. Qiu Xinlian sells all kinds of artworks. Finished paintings are one of them. She also has other items such as antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and various decorations.
Huang Zhongxiong snatched clients from her, which was equivalent to cutting off her source of income. Anyone would be angry.
Qiu Xinlian put away her phone and asked me, "I have to go to Country M in person. Will you go?"
"Go." I agreed without thinking.
I want to find Xu Zhengnan and come back with him.
Qiu Xinlian replied, "Okay, I'll take your flight ticket for tomorrow, let's go together."
Then we separated and I rushed home to tell my mother about it. She was very opposed to it at first because she was afraid that I would be in danger.
I comforted her, "Mom, I'm fine with Sister Qiu here. Besides, Xu Zhengnan went there to take the risk to find someone for my family's sake. I would feel guilty if I didn't go over there. Don't worry, I will ensure my own safety and won't take risks easily."
After my repeated comfort and assurances, my mother finally agreed. After my father came back, we persuaded him together again.
The next morning, Qiu Xinlian and I met and flew to Country M together.
On the plane, I was feeling uneasy. Before leaving, I sent a message to Xu Zhengnan, telling him about my decision. I don't know if he saw it.
——
After getting off the plane, I haven’t received any reply from Xu Zhengnan. It is likely that he didn’t see it.
This place is not far from the country, and it is a tourist destination and quite lively.
Qiu Xinlian booked a hotel and we each had a room.
I checked the location of the red light district that Su Ying had sent me before in the room. After searching for a while, I found that it was not far from here. It should belong to Huang Zhongxiong's territory.
I didn't dare to go there easily, and I came here mainly to see Xu Zhengnan and ask him to go back with me.
At this time, my cell phone rang. It was Xu Zhengnan calling.
"Li Yue, you can't come over here, do you hear me?" His voice was a little angry, "Didn't I tell you that coming over here will not help, but will only cause more trouble?"
"I..." I felt a little guilty for a moment, "I'm already here, I want to see you, and then we can go back home together."
"You——" Xu Zhengnan was so angry that he was speechless.
"Don't be angry, I'm really worried about you. Where are you now? I want to see you." I quickly admitted my mistake and apologized, "I'm sorry, but now that I'm here, you can't not see me, right?"
Xu Zhengnan sighed helplessly, "Send me the address and I'll come find you."
When I got this reply, I was immediately happy and sent my location.
Xu Zhengnan: I will arrive tomorrow morning.
Does it take so long?
Maybe he has other things to deal with, I can understand that.
Me: Okay.
Xu Zhengnan wouldn't arrive until tomorrow morning, and I had nothing to do, so I had to play with my phone in the hotel until Qiu Xinlian came and knocked on my door.
After opening the door, she asked me, "Do you want to go get something to eat and walk around?"
"Okay." I nodded.
The two of us left the hotel together and walked around. The local customs and culture were quite interesting and I had a pretty good time. When we passed a temple, Qiu Xinlian said that she had been having bad luck with money recently and was going to go in and pray.
After entering the temple, Qiu Xinlian began to pray for wealth in various ways. I had no other thoughts and just wanted to pray that everything would go smoothly and safely for Xu Zhengnan.
"Yixiao, praying for children here is very effective. I hope the two babies in my belly will be twins, a boy and a girl, one looks like you and the other looks like me." Suddenly, Lu Xiaoyun's voice was heard.
