CHAPTER 557: CHAPTER 552: CAUGHT ON THE SPOT

If today hadn’t been for Luo Zhiyong’s strong vigilance, Fang Pingying might have really caught them in the act of adultery in bed, and then there would have been no chance left between him and Pingying.

It turned out, Xu He not only wanted a child this time, but she also wanted to ruin the relationship between him and his spouse.

But now, smart as she was, she outsmarted herself.

Since Xu He made her moves without leaving any way out, Luo Zhiyong couldn’t be blamed for being merciless either.

All of a sudden, Luo Zhiyong emerged from behind the closet, opened the door, and shouted outside, "Pingying, over here."

Luo Zhiyong’s shout startled Fang Pingying outside, but it startled the twosome scrambling on the bed even more, causing Xu He to scream immediately, "Who is it, who’s there, who exactly is over there."

Following that, the light in the room was turned on, and thankfully, the people on the bed had already separated.

Xu He cowered under the blanket, covering herself up tightly, without revealing anything.

As for Shuanzi, he merely used a corner of the blanket to cover the crucial parts.

When Xu He recognized Luo Zhiyong standing at the door, she froze entirely, her eyes wide with disbelief, apparently unwilling to accept why Luo Zhiyong would be standing at the door at this time.

Then, who was the person beside her?

Her gaze slowly shifted to her side, and when she saw Shuanzi’s face clearly, Xu He felt like dying, screaming uncontrollably at the top of her lungs.

While she screamed, Fang Pingying quickly walked over as well and was startled by the scene inside the room.

It was obvious to make out what Xu He and Shuanzi had just done on the bed?

Anyone with eyes could tell whether they had done it or not.

Fang Pingying truly wondered, when did Xu He and Shuanzi hook up?

And importantly, why was Luo Zhiyong here while these two were in the midst of their affair?

What exactly is this messy situation?

Thinking such, Fang Pingying cast a suspicious glance at Luo Zhiyong.

Noticing her look, Luo Zhiyong immediately spoke up for fear that Fang Pingying might misunderstand, "Pingying, I have nothing to do with this, I will explain to you later."

After speaking, Luo Zhiyong glanced at Xu He on the bed and scoffed, "Xu He, you indeed played a good hand, how is it, did things turn out as you wished?"

By now, Xu He had completely grasped the situation and, pointing at Luo Zhiyong and so flustered that her lips quivered several times, she was unable to utter a word.

After a long while, she managed to force out a question, "Luo Zhiyong, what is going on, weren’t you the one on the bed, how did it turn into this beast?"

Luo Zhiyong sneered contemptuously, "How would I know about your affairs."

Xu He couldn’t fathom it in her heart no matter what; her plan had been flawless, and just when everything was about to be settled, out of nowhere, that damned Shuanzi popped up, how could she be content with this?

After she came to her senses, she clutched the blanket wrapped around her tightly and couldn’t help but beat and kick Shuanzi beside her, "You bastard, where did you pop out from, what are you doing in my house."

People like Shuanzi were long accustomed to such situations, and being a man, what would he be afraid of?

He wasn’t nervous at all, instead, he chuckled and said, "Hehua, aren’t you being a bit too heartless? Weren’t you just enjoying yourself to the heavens a moment ago?"

"You..." Xu He was so angry she wished she could smack Shuanzi to death, but as she stood up, she realized she was completely naked. She wrapped herself in the quilt and tried to jump off the bed to get dressed.

But before she could get down, Luo Zhiyong quickly kicked their clothes out of the door and shouted, "Wait."

Shuanzi, who was on the bed and had his quilt taken by Xu He, had no choice but to cover himself with a pillow. Seeing that Luo Zhiyong wouldn’t let them get dressed, he couldn’t walk over, but he was afraid that Luo Zhiyong might call for others or do something since he was, after all, sleeping with someone else’s wife and felt scared.

He frowned and said, "Luo Zhiyong, after all, we’ve met before, don’t go too far in what you do."

Hearing this, Luo Zhiyong smiled softly and reassured Shuanzi, "Don’t worry, this has nothing to do with you."

After hearing this, Shuanzi guessed that it was this family’s affairs and kept silent.

Following that, Luo Zhiyong gestured toward the room next door and said to Fang Pingying, "Pingying, go next door and call my mother over."

Fang Pingying had vaguely understood some matters from the conversation between Xu He, Luo Zhiyong, and Shuanzi, but she hadn’t fully grasped the sequence of events.

Hearing that Zhou Yunmei also had arrived, Fang Pingying’s brows furrowed deeply, "Your mom is here too?"

Luo Zhiyong nodded, "You’ll know what’s going on in a moment. Just go next door and call her over."

Seeing his reaction, Fang Pingying didn’t press further and went next door to knock on the door.

Luo Honglan had eaten quite a bit of drugged food and had long been deep asleep.

Although Zhou Yunmei had eaten less, she had still ingested a couple of bites, and combined with the fatigue of traveling from home to the provincial city by train and bus, she fell into a deep sleep as soon as she lay down.

Fang Pingying knocked for a long time before she heard movement inside, followed by Zhou Yunmei’s annoyed cursing, "I’m coming, I’m coming, stop the noise."

Seeing that it was Fang Pingying, Zhou Yunmei was startled for a moment, but she quickly woke up fully and glared as she asked, "Why are you here, what are you doing here?"

The moment Zhou Yunmei saw Fang Pingying, she sobered up instantly, and her first thought was about the situation with Xu He and Luo Zhiyong as she peered outside.

But the sight before her made her shudder in fright.

She saw Luo Zhiyong standing by the door next door, his face dark as the bottom of a pot, his eyes staring at her as if looking at an enemy.

Without having to say anything, Zhou Yunmei knew things hadn’t gone smoothly as they hoped.

Originally, Xu He had told her that they would leave as soon as they were done, without anyone noticing, not even Luo Zhiyong.

Clearly, both Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying were now in the know.

Zhou Yunmei choked up as she tried to explain to Luo Zhiyong, but she suddenly realized she had no way to explain.

In her anxiousness, she suddenly turned the blame on Fang Pingying, "Didn’t you and our Zhiyong get divorced? What are you doing here? Even if Zhiyong really did something with someone else, it’s none of your business."

Fang Pingying had previously considered Zhou Yunmei’s status as a mother-in-law and had given her some leeway, but now, without any relationship, she couldn’t care less about her status.

She frowned and stared at Zhou Yunmei, "Are you out of your mind? Why are you attacking me for no reason? Whatever Luo Zhiyong does in bed is none of my damn business, I’m here for Hong Lan. Someone told me that something happened to Hong Lan, asked me to come over."

No matter how much Fang Pingying and Zhou Yunmei had argued in the past, Fang Pingying had never treated her like this, speaking without any courtesy straight away. Zhou Yunmei looked at Fang Pingying in disbelief and said, "You’re cursing at me? You actually dare to curse at me now?"
