Luo Li came out of the office, his whole body shaking.

The Ji family has something against her.

The atmosphere in the office did not improve after Luo Li left.

Xu Fang looked at her husband with a look of disbelief, "What did you mean by that just now?"

Ji Yong said calmly, "That's the meaning of the words."

"You and your partner are in a relationship and there is a conflict between them. What will the child think if you say this now?"

"What do the children think? Have you ever cared about this?" Ji Yong looked straight at his wife.

Xu Fang saw the mockery in her husband's eyes, even if it was just a fleeting moment, but she knew she was not mistaken.

She opened her mouth in surprise and said "you" for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.

But she knew very well in her heart that her husband was blaming her for treating their daughter in that way.

Xu Fang pursed her lips, silently accusing her husband.

Ji Yong didn't look at her, but stood up and said, "Xiao Ke has finished the exam, and there is nothing to do in the city. You two should come back to the county with me."

"You've been angry since you came in. You didn't even ask how Xiao Ke did on the exam. What are you asking us to go back for now?"

"You don't want to go back?" Ji Yong asked.

Xu Fang was stunned for a moment and stared at him, "Yes."

"Then let's not go back." Ji Yong nodded and strode out.

Ji Ke watched his father ask and leave, and he became anxious. He walked to Xu Fang and said, "Mom, let's go back."

Xu Fang's eyes were red. She couldn't lose her temper with her little daughter and couldn't get angry. "Don't go back yet. Wait until your eldest brother comes back. The factory can't be left unattended."

Ji Ke was afraid that his mother would use this as an excuse, so he looked at her cautiously.

"Your father and I are fine. We just said a few angry words."

Ji Ke was relieved. She sat down and said, "Mom, does Dad dislike Sister Luo Li anymore? When Sister Luo Li left just now, I saw her face was pale. She must have been scared by Dad."

"Your father is blaming me for something wrong. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's stay here for a few days and wait for your eldest brother to come back. I'll explain the matter to him and then we'll go back."

Ji saw that his mother didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After Luo Li left and returned to his own factory, Luo Weiwei happened to come back from outside. When he saw this scene, he immediately went over.

She asked with concern, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?"

Luo Li raised his eyes and looked at his sister with a cold gaze. Luo Weiwei suddenly came to her senses and stepped back in fear.

She asked cautiously, "Sister, why are you looking at me like that?"

Luo Li seemed to have just come back to her senses. She took a deep breath, and the coldness in her eyes faded away, but her voice was still cold, "Where have you been?"

Luo Weiwei dodged his gaze and said, "I'm going out to meet my friends."

Luo Weiwei stood there without daring to move. She watched the man walk away before she pouted and said, "Who pissed you off? Take your anger out on me."

But she smiled again the next second. She quickly returned to her room, closed the door, took out the bag under the bed, took out the money she had saved from it, and put it on her body. If she didn't want her family to see her leaving, she had to leave secretly.

Ji Yong called his daughter only after returning to the county.

When Ji Ling received the call from her father, she had just returned from outside. Wang Sanmei had to help out in the store for the next few days, and because Ji Ling was pregnant, she had been accompanying her for two days and was exhausted.

She had to go back to school tomorrow, so she didn't go back to the compound but went back to her own home. As soon as she entered the door, she heard the phone ringing.

"Xiao Ling, I went to the city during the day and asked Luo Li over to ask. She said it was a misunderstanding and apologized to your mother. I told Luo Li and your brother to calm down in person." Ji Yong sighed, "Don't take your mother's words to heart in the future. She can say whatever she wants. If she says something unpleasant, just hang up the phone."

In the past, Ji Yong would try to ease the relationship between mother and daughter, and always asked his daughter to understand his wife. However, after so many things happened, he realized that his wife would never change.

"Dad, I understand." Ji Ling didn't endure it anymore, and she didn't want to suffer such grievances again. "I'm sorry to have worried you about this."

"Are you still so polite to Dad?" Ji Yong felt bitter. "I will talk to your eldest brother about this when he comes back. Leave it to me. Take care of yourself. Dad will come over before you give birth."

"good."

It was already dark outside. When Ji Ling entered the house just now, she only turned on the light in the living room but not the light in the bedroom. After hanging up the phone, the room was dark and a feeling of loneliness suddenly came over her.

She missed Zhu Weidong.

He made her feel at home and he always warmed her heart.

No one answered the phone after she called. Ji Ling didn't give up and called twice more, but still no one answered. Late in the night, the only sounds at home were her own breathing and heartbeat except for the empty sound coming from the phone.

Far away in the southwest, Zhu Weidong's entire right hand was paralyzed and the doctor was bandaging it. Director Wang also asked for the car to be prepared to take Zhu Weidong to the city hospital as soon as possible.

Everyone present had a solemn look on their faces.

We finished work early today and when we returned to the camp we found that one of the workers had not returned. In such a remote place, if a person gets lost it is a big deal. When it was dark and he still hadn't returned, Director Wang immediately gathered everyone and went into the mountains to look for him.

Zhu Weidong went with everyone and was the first to discover the worker lying on the ground. He rushed over to help the unconscious man up, but before he had taken a few steps, a lone wolf jumped out from the bushes.

Zhu Weidong couldn't abandon the workers, and in the fight with the wolf, his arm was scratched and his fingers were bitten.

When Director Wang and his team rushed over, it was too late. The lone wolf had escaped, leaving Zhu Weidong covered in wounds and blood, and the unconscious worker behind.

Things had gotten to this point and no one cared about anything else but to send Zhu Weidong to the city as quickly as possible.

The worker was just unconscious, but Zhu Weidong was the most seriously injured.

Ji Ling’s call didn’t go through and no one answered.

I was lying in bed alone, thinking about all the reasons why Zhu Weidong didn't answer the phone. Was it because of the heavy rain over there and there was no signal? Was everyone rushing to complete the project at the construction site? My mind was in a mess and I didn't know when I fell asleep.

The next morning, I was woken up by the sound of rain outside the car window. It was raining heavily outside. It was already seven o'clock, but it was still dark.

Ji Ling got up, boiled two eggs for herself, and was looking for an umbrella when there was a knock on the door.

Ji Ling opened the door and saw Zhu Yaowu, still holding a raincoat in his hand, "Put this on, I'll take you to school."
