As she spoke, she stood up, took out a newly bought bottle of Beibingyang soda from the refrigerator, skillfully opened the lid with one hand, and inserted a straw inside.
"It's hot outside, let me drink a bottle of soda to cool down first. Once I'm done with this busy period, I'll have plenty of time to deal with those two."
Li Qingqing took the soda, took a small sip, and found it to be icy cold with a refreshing sweet and sour taste, and a very pleasant orange flavor.
"It's delicious! It's even sweeter than brown sugar water."
Although she now has a lot of spare money, Li Qingqing still doesn't dare to spend it all easily because of her past hardships.
She wanted to hold onto some resources so that she could provide a better life for Tuantuan later.
Shu Ying leaned back on the sofa, hugging a cushion in her arms.
"I haven't heard you mention Zhong Yun'er lately. What's wrong? Has she suddenly become quiet these past few days?"
Ever since Guazi was discharged from the hospital, Zhong Yun'er has been hanging around him all the time, trying to make her presence known.
At first, Li Qingqing felt a little uncomfortable, but after a while, she just got used to it.
Duan Huaichuan didn't have much money on hand. He would give her his monthly salary regularly. As long as he had funds, he didn't care where that person's heart lay.
"You know what, I've been so busy these past few days that I haven't really noticed her. At least I haven't seen her at home. After the last fight, she hasn't shown up at the door again, so I've just decided to avoid seeing her altogether."
She didn't know whether Duan Huaichuan had any contact with her or not.
Shu Ying smiled and said, "I think she has no other choice. Either she is enduring humiliation for Duan Huaichuan, since breaking up a military marriage now comes at a price and she doesn't dare to take any more risks, or she has found another backer outside."
Li Qingqing rested her chin on one hand, rolled her eyes, and finally shook her head.
"I don't know her whereabouts, but your analysis is not wrong. After all, she can't do without a man to rely on. She doesn't have any skills to protect herself, and she has to carry a child with her at all times. It's just a pity for that child. He hasn't been able to speak since birth and has to live with such a mother. His quality of life in the future is not guaranteed. Now Zhong Yun'er keeps him by her side at all times. I think it's to gain the organization's sympathy and to secure the greatest benefit for herself."
Once the child gets what he wants, where will he be placed?
Li Qingqing is also a mother, and thinking about it makes her feel sad.
Even if Zhong Yun'er is really not good, the child is innocent after all. When he came into this world, he was also very passive. He had no father from birth, and he had a congenital deficiency. He also did not receive his mother's love.
Xie Mingzhu had lost a child, so she couldn't bear to see children suffer. She sat on a stool knitting and slowly began to speak.
“Last month, I told the committee and the women’s committee of the family compound about her situation, and I also asked the organization to take good care of this child. I think someone will care, after all, she is the child of a martyr. Anyone who sees this child would take good care of her.”
