CHAPTER 456: CHAPTER 458: I ALWAYS FEEL SOMETHING IS WRONG

Liu Yue and Luo Mingzhe were also actively preparing for their exams. Previously, Liu Yue’s academic performance wasn’t ideal, but Luo Mingzhe’s was good, so naturally they wanted to return together, not to mention that they were also husband and wife.

Thus, Luo Mingzhe taught Liu Yue every day. However, since many people sought Luo Mingzhe’s advice, he decided to open a temporary class, which attracted quite a number of attendees.

After the Gao family settled down in Red Star Production Team, although they harbored resentment towards Gao Guihua, they realized there was no chance of returning to Guangming Production Team, so they accepted the situation and their attitude towards Gao Guihua improved significantly.

Gao Guihua often went back to her maternal home to complain. She said The Lius monopolized her son, not allowing him to meet with or be close to her.

When Gao Guofu’s family heard this, they were outraged. They thought The Liu family had ulterior motives, treating other people’s children as their own. Once the children were nurtured, they would naturally obey them.

"Have you mentioned this to Wang Xueyong?" Lin Xuebi asked.

"I did, but he doesn’t believe me," Gao Guihua said with a face full of grievances. After being scolded by Wang Xueyong that day, he became indifferent towards Gao Guihua, which left her deeply depressed.

Adding to her misery was her son being raised in The Liu’s home, showing no closeness to her—her son whom she had carried for ten tough months. Seeing her own son getting close to another woman was something Gao Guihua could not accept.

Moreover, her maternal family was here. If the child was to be raised, it should be at her maternal home. With this thought, Gao Guihua went back to seek help from her maternal family, hoping they could help her retrieve her son.

Naturally, Gao Guofu and Lin Xuebi agreed, as it involved their grandson, who wasn’t close to his maternal family but to his godparents—this was preposterous.

From what Gao Guihua said, Gao Guofu’s family found The Liu family detestable, teaching the child not to be close to his mother—an extremely outrageous act.

Hence, after being reminded by Gao Guihua, Gao Guofu’s family started paying attention to their grandson Wang Zhengping. They noticed he was indeed closer to The Lius, especially to Liu Haihua, and did not even glance at his own maternal relatives.

It had to be said, during a few chance encounters, Wang Zhengping didn’t even look directly at Gao Guofu and Lin Xuebi, nor did he greet them, which infuriated Gao Guofu and Lin Xuebi. They felt The Liu family had sinister intentions and had spoiled their grandson.

"Dad, don’t act impulsively. Let’s just watch for now; we don’t have evidence to act against The Liu family yet," Gao Jianmin said.

Gao Guofu and Lin Xuebi nodded, but still felt uncomfortable being ignored by their own grandson.

Yang Hua was also revising for exams now, and Lin Xuebi asked her to coach Gao Jianmin so the couple could attend university together. Although Yang Hua also felt Gao Jianmin was not up to it, she agreed, thinking about attending university together as a couple.

However, after hearing what Gao Guofu’s family discussed, Yang Hua remarked, "Why does this nephew always pull Wang Xueyong towards The Liu’s household? Moreover, Wang Xueyong frequently visits The Lius without bringing Guihua and Li Juan along."

Yang Hua’s comment was casual, but upon hearing it, Gao Guofu said, "Exactly, it’s really Guihua’s fault. Xueyong goes to The Lius, why doesn’t she go along? Her son doesn’t even care; can she blame others for getting too attached?"

Lin Xuebi frowned, "I always feel something is off here."

"It’s definitely off. The Liu family has ulterior motives," Gao Jianmin said.

Lin Xuebi couldn’t figure it out but felt something strange, just without pinpointing it.

As for Gao Guihua, she was depressed daily, feeling like she might be angered to death by her own son someday.

Meanwhile, She Accountant had been in contact for a while now, and Wang Zhengping had grown up, but since no one had noticed, things had somewhat relaxed.

He still monitored Wang Zhengping daily, and of course, if no one discovered, She Accountant would be very happy to have such a son.

The Wangs were well-off; his seed would be raised in The Wangs’ home, treated as the young master of the house, receiving a good education—that would be a life of blessings.

As for Liu Haihua, She Accountant didn’t dare behave recklessly with her but instead set his sights on some female educated youth.

However, She Accountant knew how to get along with people, and having such a reputation added points for him. He always wore a friendly smile, and sure enough, in the entire production team, except for Wang Xueyong, She Accountant had the second-best reputation.

At this time, Liu Haihua had no idea that she and her family were being targeted by Gao Guofu’s family. To Liu Haihua, Gao Guihua and Gao Guofu’s family were not worthy opponents.

Little did she know how dangerous it was to be targeted by Gao Guofu’s family. Liu Haihua and Wang Xueyong had been secretly involved for several years without any issues. How long they could keep this a secret was hard to say.

As for Wang Xueyong sleeping with Liu Haihua at The Liu’s, The Liu family took it as normal. Wang Zhengping, because Liu Haihua often gave him perks and was close to him, felt it was perfectly reasonable and didn’t see anything wrong.

As for Liu Haiguo’s son, oblivious and carefree, he knew nothing, so Wang Xueyong and Liu Haihua’s secret liaisons over the years were indeed well concealed.

Inwardly, Wang Xueyong looked down on Liu Haihua, but couldn’t resist how freely Liu Haihua behaved, serving Wang Xueyong well. Even though Gao Guihua was prettier than Liu Haihua, her frail physique and bland personality made her unappealing to Wang Xueyong.

Lin Xuebi secretly observed for a few days and grew increasingly concerned. Her grandson was completely spoiled. The Lius was not his family; she wondered why Wang Xueyong always brought him there, and spending quite a while before coming out. Even if he was close to Liu Haiguo, it wasn’t possible to frequently drink and chat, right? How could there be so much to discuss?

Wang Xueyong even often ate at The Lius, while Gao Guihua ate at the large cafeteria. Lin Xuebi also noticed the most unusual point: Wang Xueyong never brought Gao Guihua to The Lius, even though the two homes were so close.

One day, Wang Xueyong was caught on the road by Wang Zhengping, who pulled him towards The Lius. Wang Xueyong said, "Zhengping, it seems it’s time to send you back to the city for schooling."

"I don’t want to go back to the city; I like it here," Wang Zhengping said.

Wang Xueyong shook his head, somewhat regretting that when his parents wanted to bring his son back to the city for schooling, he had refused, insisting on teaching him himself, even though his son was already six years old and should be attending school.

"In the city, you have your grandparents, and there’s plenty of candy and meat," Wang Xueyong said. Upon hearing this, Wang Zhengping’s eyes lit up, "Does that mean I can eat as much as I want?"

Wang Xueyong laughed, "Of course, you can eat as much as you can." In Wang Xueyong’s view, a youngster could eat quite a bit, and The Wangs could certainly afford it.

These days, Wang Xueyong didn’t really want to stay here anymore. He had achieved something these past few years here, and if he passed the college entrance exam and attended university, he could have an even better future upon returning.
