Chapter 342: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
In this life, he has lived up to his country, his parents and his son. The only thing he has let down is this daughter.
From now on, the old couple must be extra nice to their daughter to make up for the parental love she has lacked for so many years.
Although they knew that she did not lack parental love, this was all owed to her by them as parents.
Zhou Ruolan looked at the other members of the Zhou family with eager eyes. Since her parents had acknowledged her, these people naturally had to do the same.
"Big brother, big sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law...hello!"
Hanxiao greeted them all, which was considered as acknowledging them.
The younger generations also came forward sweetly and called her auntie and grandma!
It was such a lively scene that she was so happy that her eyes were curved with laughter.
Li Guoer also called people according to their seniority. In the Zhou family, except for the children younger than her, she was the youngest.
"I didn't expect that you are really my sister! It's incredible! I have a sister too! From now on, sister, remember to call me brother!" Zhou Xiangdong said excitedly, and then glanced at Xiao Tianyu proudly.
Haha, I didn’t expect that you would have this day?
From now on, he will be Xiaoyu's future uncle. Let's see if he dares to be rude to him.
Xiao Tianyu turned a deaf ear to his pride. How could a cousin he had just met compare to his girlfriend's position in her heart?
Zhou Xiangdong is the son of his third uncle Zhou Zhenmin. He has only two cousins and no younger sister.
When I was little, I really wanted to have a chubby sister, but it never happened.
I didn’t expect that it would come true when I grew up.
How can we not be surprised? How can we not be excited?
Li Guoer raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, little brother!"
She responded readily, and Zhou Xiangdong happily sat around her, pouring her water and handing her delicious food!
That attentive look made Xiao Tianyu frown. Having too many uncles is not a good thing!
The Li family originally had four, and now the Zhou family has five more uncles and two sisters-in-law.
There are more than ten of them in total. It’s so difficult for him!
Only then did Li Guoer look up and coldly glance at Bai Yun and her daughter who had been sitting aside without saying a word since the appraisal report came out.
Playing with his fingers, he casually asked, "Grandpa, have all those who planned to get rid of my mom been punished? Are there any who slipped through the net?"
When Bai Yun heard this, her expression suddenly changed, and a flash of panic appeared in her eyes.
However, she immediately considered that she was now in Zhou's house, and was afraid of revealing her true identity, so she quickly restrained her expression.
She lowered her head so that no one could see her expression.
These changes in her expression could be hidden from others, but not from Li Guoer who had been secretly watching her.
She sneered inwardly. With such a low level of mentality, he still dared to do bad things. He was exposed just by her casual mention of it.
"Of course they have all been punished. Why does Xiaoguo ask this?" Old Master Zhou was a little surprised.
He had personally witnessed the execution of those people. Could there have been some mistake? Had someone slipped through the net?
The old man didn't remain puzzled for too long. Li Guoer continued, "I've learned something about the situation. My mother went out with someone she knew. This person colluded with political enemies, and that's why she was taken away!"
The Zhou family never expected that there was such a thing, and it was an acquaintance?
Who was this person? What on earth was he trying to do by lurking around them for so long?
But no matter how hard the Zhou family tried, they still couldn't figure out who this person was!
"Xiao Guoer, do you know who that person is? Can you tell your uncle?" Zhou Zhenguo thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Fortunately, he stopped thinking about it and asked directly.
"I know! Uncle, think carefully about who my mother was playing with when she went missing!" Li Guoer did not say who it was, but let them recall it themselves.
When her mother went missing, her uncle should have been twelve or thirteen years old and should have been able to remember things!
Zhou Zhenguo lowered his head and carefully recalled what happened that day.
After all, decades have passed and his memory is not very clear!
Before he could remember, Mrs. Zhou looked at Bai Yun with a cold gaze, gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Ruolan was playing with Bai Yun at that time!"
She remembered clearly what happened on the day her daughter was lost.
Bai Yun, who never played with her daughter, was willing to play with Ruolan for the first time that day.
She was relieved at that time, but she didn't expect that he would be an accomplice?
She was only ten at the time, wasn't she? Still a child, how could she be so vicious? Could she be wrong?
"Uncle, aunt, I was indeed playing with my cousin at that time. Later, when I was tired, I went home. My cousin's disappearance really has nothing to do with me!" Bai Yun denied it repeatedly.
Anyway, those people are all dead and the Zhou family has no evidence. As long as she denies it, no one can do anything to her.
If the Zhou family knew that their Bai family was involved, then her Bai family would be finished.
After hearing her denial, Mr. Zhou was a little undecided for a moment!
The main reason is that Bai Yun was not very old at the time, so she shouldn't have done such a thing, right?
Li Guoer glanced at her coldly and scoffed at her denial:
"Do you think I can't do anything to you if you don't admit it? You have to believe that in this world, everything you do will leave a trace!"
Besides, she wouldn't spend any time looking for evidence; a mantra talisman could solve the problem.
"What traces or no traces? Why should I admit to something I didn't do? Please don't talk nonsense without evidence!" Bai Yun refuted righteously.
But looking at his expression, he looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Zhang Zhenzhen also raised her chin slightly, revealing her fair and slender swan neck, and put on an appearance of being weak and unyielding, with a righteous awe:
"My mother is so kind, she would never do such a thing! I know it must be because I accidentally offended you last time that you are making such empty accusations against my mother. If you want revenge, come after me! Please let my mother go!"
But in my heart I thought that since she was in this state, there would definitely be someone who would pity her, right?
As long as there is one person who stands up to speak for her, she will seize the opportunity to hook up with him.
Wow, this mother and daughter are really capable.
After such a performance, most people really believed their lies.
Unfortunately, no one here is an ordinary person. Who can be fooled by this little trick?
Did Zhang Zhenzhen really overestimate herself this time? Did she think the children of the top aristocratic families were stupid? Are they so easy to seduce?
Can you make someone fall in love with you just by pretending?
These children from aristocratic families have enjoyed the most elite education since childhood and have been carefully nurtured by their families.
What kind of women have you not seen?
Don’t you know what kind of routine it is?
Who could she fool with such a clumsy performance?
No one believed what she said, and no one stood up to defend her. This performance was a waste!
Li Guoer didn't bother to waste time talking to her and said directly, "You want evidence? Isn't that easy?"
