CHAPTER 572: CHAPTER 567: XIAO PANG DEFENDS GRANDMA
"Why go there, will she even care to deal with you?" At this time, Xu He didn’t want to confront Fang Pingying and the others, because now, apart from Zhou Yunmei, it’s only Fang Pingying and the others who knew about her and Shuanzi, and if she could avoid seeing them these days, she tried her best to evade.
She deliberately said to Zhou Yunmei, "Mom, don’t forget, those people are ruthless. Just last night they left us alone to confront those loan sharks, as if they really won’t bother with our affairs anymore."
Zhou Yunmei, remembering last night’s event, also cursed under her breath.
However, this time she had no choice but to make the trip, "Whether they care or not, we’ll talk about that later. What he owes, he definitely has to give. This time I promised your dad to bring back photos of the two children for him to see. If I don’t bring them, your dad will definitely suspect something happened to us here."
Thinking of Luo Dashan, Xu He felt a bit panicked, she whispered, "What if last night, Luo Zhiyong and the others already told dad?"
If Luo Zhiyong made a call, he would definitely tell Luo Dashan about last night, inevitably mentioning her affair with Shuanzi.
Zhou Yunmei was not worried about this, she smiled and waved at Xu He, very confident, saying, "No, it’s inconvenient to answer the phone at home, it was so late last night, he wouldn’t have had the chance to call, today Zhiyong and the others are busy with Honglan’s engagement, they definitely won’t have time to call. If we can hurry back today or tomorrow, we can definitely stop it."
Xu He felt Zhou Yunmei’s words were quite reasonable and felt less worried, nodding, "Alright, then go get it, I’ll wait for you downstairs."
"Okay."
After arriving downstairs at Fang Pingying’s, Zhou Yunmei, remembering she had walked from Fang Pingying’s home to the train station a few times and knew how to take the bus, decided not to take a tricycle anymore. After getting the photos, she would take the bus to the station by herself.
Fang Pingying and all had gone to Luo Honglan’s engagement, only Li Yuchun was at home with Haohao. When Li Yuchun heard someone knocking, she didn’t think much and directly opened the door.
Upon seeing Zhou Yunmei standing outside, Li Yuchun’s face immediately turned sour, and she blocked the doorway, saying without good temper, "What are you doing here again."
"I came to see my grandchildren," Zhou Yunmei said, and then pushed aside Li Yuchun’s hand to enter.
But Li Yuchun wasn’t easy to deal with, she wasn’t going to let her in so easily, she pushed her back out and closed the door, looking at her and saying, "Are you really here out of good intentions? Since when did you care about Ruirui and Yaoyao, aren’t you here today to concoct some scheme?"
Zhou Yunmei, pushed by Li Yuchun, almost fell over, furious, she steadied herself, hands on hips, glaring at Li Yuchun and cursed, "Li Yuchun, what are you so proud of? Now you’re sucking up to Fang Pingying because she’s started to make some money, not even thinking how badly you treated her in the past."
Li Yuchun scoffed, with a mocking look, "Zhou Yunmei, as you said, I began to suck up once I saw our family Pingying making money, but you, even after spending other people’s money, don’t know how to suck up. People like you are ungrateful, worse than pigs and dogs."
Hearing Li Yuchun actually start insulting, Zhou Yunmei’s anger was completely kindled, she pointed at Li Yuchun, "Li Yuchun, are you looking to pick a fight today or what, you think I’m afraid of you?"
"Don’t tell me you’re scared of me?" Li Yuchun stared back aggressively, "Believe it or not, I can have someone kick you out of this building right now."
"I..." Normally, Zhou Yunmei would have already started fighting with Li Yuchun, but today, she came with the purpose of retrieving photos. She couldn’t go back without them; otherwise, Luo Dashan would think she had had another altercation with Luo Zhiyong and failed even in such a simple task. If Luo Dashan ended up calling Zhiyong, everything would be exposed.
She swore to Luo Dashan at home that if she messed up again, she would allow herself to be kicked out of the house.
If Luo Dashan found out about this series of events happening under the guise of asking for help, she really might be kicked out.
Thus, when she spoke again, her voice unconsciously carried a hint of pleading, "Dear in-law, it’s not me who needs it, this time it’s my husband who wants to see the photos of Ruirui and Yaoyao. Since their birth, he hasn’t yet seen what his grandchildren look like."
When Li Yuchun heard it was for Luo Dashan, her heart softened slightly. Although she didn’t like Luo Dashan much, she could understand his desire to see his grandchildren.
But seeing Zhou Yunmei made her irritated, and she replied sternly, "Ask your son for the photos."
Zhou Yunmei was stunned, then said, "But Zhiyong and others went to handle Hong Lan’s engagement matters today."
Speaking of engagement, Li Yuchun shook her head with a mix of exasperation and schadenfreude, "Zhou Yunmei, I feel sorry for you. You have so many children, how could you end up like this?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yunmei’s face darkened, and she retorted stiffly, "How am I now, I’m living just fine."
"Your eldest son ignores you, your youngest daughter barely acknowledges you as her mother, is that called living just fine?" Li Yuchun shook her head, "I wonder, when you get old, your eldest daughter definitely won’t care about you. That damned Luo Zhiming can hardly take care of himself, let alone you. By that time, who knows, you might die uncared for."
"Alright, Li Yuchun, I talk to you nicely and you start hurting with your words, I won’t let you have the last laugh today." Zhou Yunmei couldn’t hold back anymore and unexpectedly reached out and clawed at Li Yuchun’s face.
Caught off guard, Li Yuchun felt a burning pain on her face; when she wiped it, it seemed like blood was flowing out.
Just as she was about to retaliate against Zhou Yunmei, Haohao, who had been watching them from the sofa’s edge, suddenly lunged at Zhou Yunmei, stuttering, "Don’t bully my grandma."
Haohao was small but chubby, and had considerable weight. With all his might, he charged, pushing Zhou Yunmei back a step, her head hitting the door, causing a faint pain.
