Chapter 105: Good Bamboo Leads to Bad Bamboo Shoots
"Comrade police officer, I am Wang Hao's mother. Please allow me to go in and see him."
The Hu Hongyan in front of him no longer had the arrogance she had when facing Xu Xiaoyue. She bent over as much as she could, took out a few food coupons from her pocket, and quietly handed them to the man in front of her when no one was paying attention.
"Hey, hey, since we can meet, you don't have to accept the food coupons." The man waved his hands quickly. The higher-ups were watching him very closely now, so how could he dare to accept the coupons?
Seeing that the man really didn't want to accept it, Hu Hongyan cursed inwardly, "What a fool! He doesn't even want the money."
Wang Haocai sat down, tears streaming down his face through the glass window. In just a few days in prison, he looked so thin that he was unrecognizable, with sunken eye sockets and a scruffy chin.
"Haozi, what crime have you committed?"
Hu Hongyan was both angry and distressed. Wang Hao had been arrested before, but he was always released within a few days.
Wang Hao sniffed sharply. He had not slept well for a single night since he was arrested. The police interrogated him repeatedly, with incandescent lights shining into his pupils. He could not eat or sleep well.
"Mom, I just heard from a friend that kidnapping a few kids can make money, and I only did a few of them. Now the police say they want to shoot me..."
He was halfway through his words when he started crying intermittently.
"Shooting? Who wants to shoot you?" Upon hearing that her son was going to be shot, Hu Hongyan could no longer sit still. She slammed her hands on the glass in anxiety.
Wang Hao didn't dare to speak, and just kept crying. He cried for a long time before he suddenly remembered something, "Mom, now you have to ask the Yan family for help."
"The police said that the army was assisting in the investigation. Aren't the Yan family members in the army? Mom, go and beg them to say that they arrested the wrong person..."
Yan Ye's name came to the tip of his tongue, but Wang Hao hesitated and couldn't say it.
Ever since Yan Ye beat him severely last time, Wang Hao felt pain at the back of his head whenever he thought about it. Now this was the only way left for him.
Hearing her son's words, Hu Hongyan quickly agreed. She opened her mouth and wanted to say a few more words, but the man behind Wang Hao approached and pulled down the curtain on the glass window.
The designated visiting time had arrived. Although Hu Hongyan knew the rule, she still couldn't help but curse the man inside viciously.
The man read through the glass window that Hu Hongyan's expression didn't seem like she was saying anything nice, so he pushed Wang Hao and urged him to leave quickly.
Seeing her son being pushed and shoved, Hu Hongyan subconsciously raised her voice to curse. After being stopped by the staff next to her, she remembered what her son had told her and hurried back to the compound.
Not long after Xu Xiaoyue came back, Yan Shuli and Zheng Jiaojiao came back together. Liu Ye's eyes fell on Zheng Jiaojiao's arm holding Yan Shuli's, and the blue veins on her forehead were throbbing wildly.
"Aunt." Zheng Jiaojiao put down her hand, took two steps back, hid behind Yan Shuli, and called out reluctantly.
Liu Ye's face was stiff and she suppressed her anger and responded, "Come with me."
She said this to Yan Shuli. Zheng Jiaojiao shrank back, then stuck out from behind the man with her neck stiffened. She looked at Liu Ye cautiously and said, "Aunt, I insisted on following you. Don't blame Brother Shuli."
Yan Shuli frowned, turned around and said casually, "It's okay, Mom won't be angry about this."
"Didn't I ask you and Xiaoyue to go out shopping? Why did Xiaoyue come back alone?" Liu Ye's face turned pale and he looked at people with some impatience.
"She's back? Isn't she with my uncle?"
Yan Shuli felt confused when Liu Ye questioned him like this. When he raised his eyes, he didn't know where the two of them had gone.
"With your uncle?" Liu Ye's tone was full of suspicion.
"Really, Mom, do you still think I want to lie to you?" Yan Shuli stared at the woman with his black eyes.
Liu Ye didn't say whether she believed it or not, "Shuli, logically speaking, there are some things that mom shouldn't say, but today I have to say it."
"Since you have already decided to date Xiaoyue, why would you flirt with Zheng Jiaojiao and make it so confusing?"
After Liu Ye finished speaking, she reflected on it. Neither she nor Lao Yan were playboys. They were each other's first love. Although they got married blindly, they had never done anything like having a happy marriage at home and having colorful flags flying outside.
Could it be that a good bamboo gave birth to a bad bamboo shoot, giving rise to a playboy like Yan Shuli?
"Mom, what are you talking about, me and Xu Xiaoyue?"
"She told you, right? When did I start dating her?" Yan Shuli said in a shocked tone. He stumbled over his words, and his ears turned red for no apparent reason.
"You're not dating her?" Liu Ye was more shocked than her son.
She saw with her own eyes Xu Xiaoyue coming down from upstairs with her lips red and swollen. As someone who had experienced this, Liu Ye could tell whether the swelling was caused by a kiss or an insect bite.
Besides, she asked Yan Shuli to go up and call for help. If it wasn't Yan Shuli who kissed her, could it be her brother-in-law who wanted to stay a hundred thousand kilometers away from all female creatures?
Liu Ye felt it was impossible just by thinking about it. The only possibility was that Yan Shuli kissed her but didn't dare to admit it.
"Mom, mom, mom, why did you hit me?" Yan Shuli was standing there quietly, but was inexplicably hit in the nose by his mother. He screamed in shock.
"Just hitting you is too light." Liu Ye slapped him a few times, still not satisfied, and twisted the man's ear and pulled it hard a few times.
She and Old Yan had been upright people all their lives, but they never expected that they would give birth to a bad son. How come she didn't realize before that this boy could be such a bastard?
Can a girl's innocent affairs be made fun of?
Liu Ye thought about it carefully and felt deeply that her son was not worthy of Xu Xiaoyue.
Liu Ye's blood pressure rose because of Yan Shuli's anger. She took a leave of absence and didn't even go to the hospital in the afternoon. She sat on the sofa to calm herself down and asked Yan Shuli to kneel on the floor to reflect on himself.
This is what Yan Ye saw when he returned home. "What happened?"
The man spoke in a joking tone. Yan Shuli looked up at his uncle miserably, shook his head, and looked confused.
"It's okay. I haven't dealt with this kid for a long time. Let him reflect on himself today." Liu Ye didn't have the nerve to tell the story that Yan Shuli kissed someone and then denied it.
Since it concerns her daughter's reputation, she just pretends not to know so as to avoid embarrassment for her and Xu Xiaoyue living under the same roof.
Zheng Jiaojiao sat aside with red eyes. She knew that her aunt's affection for her had declined since she came back from cutting her wrists. Now, even when she and Yan Shuli were together, her aunt would find reasons to punish Yan Shuli.
No, this is not a punishment at all. It was clearly done on purpose for her to see, so that she would know her own limitations and stop bothering Yan Shuli in the future.
"Aunt..." Zheng Jiaojiao had just opened her mouth when a hurried knock on the door interrupted her.
