Chapter 53 He never visited his son as a father
Zhai Jing brought the cakes over. He took off his coat and sat at the dining table. He was thinking very seriously: "The children...are they all asleep?"
"Zhao Zhao is probably still studying, Luo Luo has already gone to bed." Zhai Jing asked, "You're having a social event and drinking today, shall I make you some hangover soup? Otherwise you'll have a terrible headache."
Ming Hang shook his head. "Sit down and take a rest. Don't rush. I didn't drink much. I just happened to have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"I want to transfer Luo Luo to another kindergarten." Ming Hang put forward his idea seriously. Considering Xia Liwei's behavior, if he did not choose to help them, his daughter would be in trouble.
"Where are you going? I've checked out all the nearby kindergartens. Zhaozhao is a bit far from where we live. You can save time if you pick him and Luoluo up at the same time. Other kindergartens are not on the way."
Zhai Jing expressed her incomprehension.
Ming Hang responded, "I know that too. At worst I can just take a detour."
"Why did you change suddenly? You always give me reasons."
"I think the kindergarten my daughter attends has a bad environment and poor education quality. My daughter won't be very happy there."
Minghang's excuses were acceptable.
Zhai Jing was silent for a moment. She knew that the kindergarten might not be that good, but Mingluo had never complained about it.
Besides, she didn't want Minghang to work too hard.
Their family finally managed to live in the city, all thanks to Minghang's hard work.
"But..." Zhai Jing hesitated.
Ming Hang put the cake in Zhai Jing's hand and said, "I changed my job."
"What?" Zhai Jing hadn't yet come to terms with the previous incident when the next bomb hit her right between the eyebrows.
"You, when did it happen? The president of the Bo Group saw that you were Yu Zhao's uncle, so you resigned right after he promoted you?"
"I don't need a position that I got through connections."
“…”
After Ming Hang finished speaking, Yu Zhao, who was about to go downstairs with a cup of water, turned back to the room. He leaned against the wall silently. Yu Zhao always believed that Ming Hang's promotion had nothing to do with him.
"So where do you plan to work?" Zhai Jing had nothing to say and avoided the fatal topic.
Ming Hang said nothing, took a sip of the water and said, "I'll tell you when I'm calm. Just keep the family expenses the same as before."
Zhai Jing stood up and prepared to put the cakes back into the refrigerator, but Ming Hang stopped her, "Throw it away, it doesn't taste that good. Tell Zhao Zhao not to buy them next time."
"It's Zhao Zhao's gift. Luo Luo likes to eat it, but you're picky." Zhai Jing ignored Ming Hang's words and put the cakes into the refrigerator. "If you don't want to eat it, I will. I'll give it to you."
Minghang turned around and went upstairs.
Yu Zhao tiptoed to put down the cup of water. There was only a desk lamp on the desk, which was enough to illuminate him while he was doing his homework. He played with the fountain pen in his hand.
He sketched from time to time to dispel his bad habit of daydreaming. It was just a thing, so why should he take it too seriously?
But it was this matter that made Yu Zhao unable to help but speculate.
The cell phone was placed on the desk, vibrating slightly. Seeing that it was a message from Bo Qingyan, he clicked on it.
[Bo Qingyan: My dear, why did your uncle resign? Is he not satisfied with the position I gave him? How will your uncle support you?]
Yu Zhao felt strange in his heart. He didn't know...how could he know whether Ming Hang hated him or not.
Yu Zhao: I don’t know.
[Bo Qingyan: Well then, it seems we can only hope for the best.]
Bo Qingyan's messages stopped coming, and a message from Shen Wuhuai popped up in a window. It was a transfer record: Brother Huai transferred 5,200 yuan to you.
Then Shen Wuhuai edited three words: spend it first.
Yu Zhao pursed his lips and smiled. Did he look like he was short of money? Without a pause, he returned the transfer: Your money didn't come from the wind, so you don't have to spend it on me.
They repeated the process of collecting and returning money many times. Shen Wuhuai angrily said "Good night, baby" and disappeared.
Yu Zhao stared at the chat interface, his thoughts racing.
When he was twelve or thirteen years old, he earned his first pot of gold. Except for his tuition, all the money was taken away by Zhai Yan to buy cigarettes.
Yu Zhao still doesn't smoke until now because Zhai Yan can't control his smoking addiction.
She robbed people when she had no money, even exchanging her body for money. She also spread the word that she had a burden, trying to gain some money by taking advantage of other people's sympathy.
He didn't want to be like that lunatic.
Later, working a summer job became something he had to do until he was seventeen years old, when Zhai Yan had a big fight with him and in a fit of rage, Zhai Yan dragged him back to her dark home.
There are no classmates or teachers, only Zhai Yan and the man Xiao Yi who often walks around. Zhai Yan originally wanted to lock him up for life.
Even if that is impossible.
Perhaps it was because Zhai Yan received news from Zhai Jing and learned that her grandparents had passed away, and Zhai Yan's last bit of maternal love was exhausted, so she sent Yu Zhao back to the village.
It makes it convenient for him to do things and also allows Yu Zhao to know the bad news.
Yu Zhao knew very well that it was a "surprise" given to him by Zhai Yan, but he did not hate Zhai Yan that much at that time.
Only endless sadness spread. He hated himself for not visiting his grandparents more often. All the people who loved him in this world left him.
He thought that if his father had visited his parents more often, his grandparents would not have had any regrets during their lifetime.
When I was a child, I always heard my grandmother nagging that my father left so decisively and didn't want us, mother and son, and even they were unwilling to support us.
For the sake of their son's reputation, grandpa and grandma made clear things in the village again and again. Grandpa once told Yu Zhao not to hate his father or blame his mother.
In fact, Yu Zhao didn't even know his father's name.
Yu Zhao couldn't bear the thought any longer and fell asleep.
City B is slightly inferior to City A. When Zhai Yan received Lu Qi's call, she had just walked out of a shabby-looking residential building with Xiao Ming beside her.
Xiao Ming asked her who she was.
Zhai Yan answered the phone first, "What's the matter?"
"You don't plan to continue the cooperation?"
"Humph." Zhai Yan smiled. "If I do something like that, they will definitely arrest me. Yu Zepei will definitely not let me go."
"I want you to threaten the people around him. If you come, I will use my power to protect you."
"..." Zhai Yan opened and closed her mouth, but never responded. Before she hung up, she said, "Let me think about it again."
She answered Xiao Yi's question, "You know I have an ex-husband... no, ex-bedmate, who is also Yu Zhao's father. Now I know he is back and has great power. Someone came to me to pull Yu Zhao's father."
"Who is his father?"
"Yu Ke." The light in Zhai Yan's eyes faded a little. "But I don't really want to help them. I get too little benefit."
"It's up to you to choose." Xiao Yu didn't care about Zhai Yan's past. He knew something about Yu Ke. The company behind Xiao Yu never chose Yu Group for two reasons.
First, Yu was more powerful than they thought;
Second, since the Yu and Wu families are the dominant ones, Xiao Ming will not seek death.
"Why don't you send Yu Zhao to Yu Ke? If you don't want to raise him, there's no need for him to be kept in your household registration," Xiao Ming said.
Zhai Yan threw away the cigarette butt and stomped it out with her foot. "Yu Ke would never look down on that bastard. He has no name or status, so Yu Ke would naturally not admit that he has an illegitimate child." After saying that, she took a breath and said, "Yu Zepei is a hundred times more ruthless than me."
Xiao Ming did not continue the topic. He asked, "Then when are we going to get married? If we don't put marriage on the agenda, it may be too late."
"You and I are both good at sex, why do we need to restrict ourselves with that?" Zhai Yan was used to rejecting Xiao Ming. "Besides, you don't really want to get married, so why did you bring this up?"
"Even if someone doesn't want to get married, they still want to find a partner to live with. Don't you want to be the wife of a group?" Xiao Ming said with a smile.
Zhai Yan yawned, "I can't show up on stage. I hate it when people call me the president's wife."
Xiao Ming reluctantly retracted his smile and said, "It doesn't matter."
Zhai Yan responded, "Go back, I want to go to the sea over there to relax."
"Yeah." Xiao Ming had no intention of asking to stay. The driver who was on standby picked him up and left.
Zhai Yan sat on the shore, all alone.
After all, she was willing to help Lu Qi. After all, seeing Yu Ke unhappy with her own eyes made her feel better than torturing Yu Zhao.
So she took the initiative to contact Lu Qi.
She just had to tell him that she wanted more compensation, and Lu Qi agreed immediately.
"I'll give you Wu Shi's phone number." Lu Qi said.
"No need." Zhai Yan received the next motive. After hanging up the phone, she pulled Wu Shi's contact information from the blacklist. Looking at the number, she could not believe that Yu Ke married Wu Shi.
Not her.
Every girl has a prince charming whom she wants to marry, but Zhai Yan never met her prince charming.
Yu Zepei was just a passer-by in her life.
Compared with Wu Shi, they are both beautiful.
Zhai Yan pressed the dial button. It was quite late, and she guessed that Wu Shi would not answer the call even if he saw her number. She was about to hang up.
To her surprise, Wu Shi answered the call.
As a teacher, Wu Shi may still choose to stick to his professional ethics and ask, "Yu Zhao's mother, why are you calling so late at night? Is there anything?"
Wu Shi was also shocked. She had been blocked by Zhai Yan a long time ago, but she actually received a call from him until now.
Zhai Yan's lips curled up wildly, and she pretended to be distracted, "Teacher Wu... I'm sorry, what happened that day was because I was not in a good mood. I have a mental illness. Please don't call the police to arrest me, okay?"
“……” Wu Shi pursed her lips and said nothing. She didn’t know what to say. Simple forgiveness?
She should have professional ethics. Putting aside work, Zhai Yan sexually assaulted her in revenge.
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Zhai Yan immediately cried, "Please, it's not easy for me to raise Zhao Zhao alone. I have done everything for him over the years. I didn't expect that I would lose control. Teacher Wu... I beg you, Zhao Zhao has been without a father since he was a child, and I raised him alone..." It's not so easy.
"That's enough." Wu Shi didn't want to listen any further. She was really afraid that she would just let it go. She didn't want to pursue the truth about Yu Zhao, but Zhai Yan...
How could she let it go so easily? She said, "This matter is not my responsibility, Yu Zhao's mother. There are some things you need to bear on your own."
Zhai Yan said pitifully: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wu. I... I know Yu Ke really wants to arrest me. I know he has never tolerated me. It was the case in the past and it is the case now. He may hate me too much."
What she said left Wu Shi confused.
Zhai Yan sniffed and said, "I have taken care of Zhao Zhao for so many years, but he never...never took the initiative to visit Zhao Zhao..."
