"Would I lie to you about this?"
Kang Shichang pursed his lips and said after a long while, "Okay, good boy, just think that he has lost his mind for a woman and now even his conscience is broken, that's really good."
"You know what happened. Tell me how to deal with it. Am I targeting your Kang family or Kang Xiaohua?" Zhu's father also spoke openly. "It's okay at other times. How old is Niu Niu? Let outsiders see Niu Niu and say those things. What if Niu Niu is taken away? It's not like we haven't lost a child before. We lived in the same courtyard. You know that the child was lost because of Chi Fangping. Now Kang Xiaohua is targeting Niu Niu because of Chi Fangping. We in the Zhu family don't have such a good temper."
"Old Zhu, I'm ashamed that I didn't educate my child well. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation about this matter. Just go after Kang Xiaohua. I have no opinion on what you do. I don't have a son like him." Kang Shichang also made his attitude clear.
"Okay, your words are enough." After communicating with Kang Shichang, Zhu's father left.
That afternoon, Kang Xiaohua was still at home when he received a call from his unit asking him to return to school immediately.
Kang Xiaohua didn’t know what was going on, but the school called him urgently, so he had to go to school first.
After arriving at the place, Kang Xiaohua was stunned when he heard that he was asked to go to the grassroots level.
"After you graduated, you have been teaching in school. You have teaching experience, but no practical experience. It just so happens that the construction site also needs people, so you can go there to learn. This opportunity is rare."
Kang Xiaohua, "Leader, let me follow the construction site. Where should I go? How long will it take?"
"Zhu Weidong is better than you, and he has been following the construction site all the time. In the end, he got into an accident. Why do you have so many problems here? Xiaokang, your attitude is wrong. Go back and pack your things. After Zhu Weidong got into an accident, they are short of people, and you are just the right person to fill his vacancy."
When the leader mentioned Zhu Weidong, Kang Xiaohua understood vaguely, "It was the Zhu family who did it, right?"
The leader looked unhappy and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about. If you have any objections to being transferred to a lower position, you can write a letter of opinion and we will hold a meeting to discuss it."
Kang Xiaohua didn't have the confidence to do that, so he could only accept the transfer unwillingly and go home to pack up his things.
Chi Fangping heard that someone was leaving, "Then I will be alone at home?"
"You can't bring your family members over there. I'll go there and come back as soon as possible. You stay here by yourself for now."
Chi Fangping worked at the General Administration at the time and knew the nature of this kind of work very well. She said she would be back soon, but who knew how many years it would take.
Zhu Weidong kept following the construction site and did not stop even after getting married.
However, thinking that Kang Xiaohua was gone, she would have more freedom, and Chi Fangping was happy to see this.
Just the day before Kang Xiaohua left, he received a call from his mother Kang at home.
Kang's mother relayed her husband's words on the phone, "Xiaohua, you may make a fuss, but Niu Niu is so young. She was abducted because of Chi Fangping. That's why your father opposed you being together. You're marrying her now, and you're putting your hands on Niu Niu. You're so confused."
"Don't involve children in the grudges between adults. What grudge do you have with the Zhu family? It's all because of Chi Fangping. Are you going to give up your family and even your career and life for a woman?"
Kang Xiaohua could yell at his father, but not at his mother. "Mom, I know how to handle it myself. You don't have to worry about it."
"Your father doesn't even recognize you as his son, what else are you going to do? Now that you've been transferred away, do you really think the Zhu family will only do this? Xiaohua, stop it." Kang's mother cried on the other end of the phone.
Kang Xiaohua hung up the phone.
Chi Fangping looked at him. She didn't know what was said on the other end of the phone, but seeing that he looked not well, she moved closer to him worriedly.
Having said that, the man went out.
Kang Xiaohua went out to make a phone call.
He called Zhu Weidong. When Zhu Weidong received the call on the train, he secretly ran to Ji Ling's carriage to coax his daughter.
He saw the phone and picked it up immediately.
"Zhu Weidong, I was wrong. I shouldn't have let Cao Yehong take advantage of me, but I didn't have any other ideas, let alone targeting a child. If you have anything to do with me, I'll take it. Just don't affect my parents, okay? Besides, I only saw Niuniu at school, and I didn't take her away."
Zhu Weidong didn't know what Kang Xiaohua had done, but he could tell what it was from Kang Xiaohua's words.
He took the phone and left the car, walked to a position where Xiaoling couldn't hear him, and then spoke, "Kang Xiaohua, you said you weren't targeting the child, but you did it, and you can't deny it. Now that you've done it, you come here and say you weren't targeting Niuniu, is that realistic?"
"I was just impulsive at the time. I didn't think too much about it, nor did I think about the consequences. Besides, the school is watching, so Cao Yehong won't do anything to Niuniu."
"I don't want to hear these words. I don't know what my family has done, but since you are wrong, you should bear the consequences."
Zhu Weidong hung up the phone directly.
He thought that his wife had been absent-minded the whole day, as if she was worried about something. He did not dare to ask and just observed her carefully.
Now we know that it was because of Cao Yehong that she found the school and her daughter.
Zhu Weidong held the phone tightly with guilt, and only returned to the car after he calmed down.
My daughter has fallen asleep.
"You should go back too. Don't come over here again. It's not good if people find out." Ji Ling didn't look at him and gently covered her daughter with a blanket.
"You know about Cao Yehong going to school to look for Niuniu, right?"
Ji Ling turned around, her eyes cold, "Yes, I heard it from my daughter this morning. Are you surprised too? Niuniu said Cao Yehong told her to stay away from you and not to look for you. Are you satisfied?"
"I'm sorry." Zhu Weidong wanted to apologize, with a thousand words to say, but he didn't know what else to say.
"Is saying sorry any use? Cao Yehong is so bold that she dared to put her hands on my daughter. I didn't bother to argue with her before, and I also thought you were disgusting. But it's a pity that she treats me like a soft persimmon. Isn't she still in Bei County? It's a good opportunity for me to go meet her."
"In fact, there is nothing going on between her and me, and her child is not mine." Zhu Weidong didn't want to endure it any longer and wanted to tell the truth. "Her ex-boyfriend found me and followed me back to Bei County. He asked for 100,000 yuan, and then he would tell me the truth."
Ji Ling was stunned for a moment, then said "oh" faintly.
"I originally wanted to wait for them to come back, and then make Cao Yehong tell the truth herself. But now things have changed, so I thought about dealing with it after I find the child." Zhu Weidong was too ashamed to look at his wife.
