Dashan Luo and Yun Mei Zhou exchanged a glance, unsure of what to do.
Honglan Luo knew they were worried, so she discussed with Zhiyong Luo, "Brother, let them go have a look. Otherwise, they won’t be at ease."
Seeing that both of them were going together and it wasn’t too late, Zhiyong Luo nodded.
Thus, Dashan Luo set out to search for the person.
Not knowing where Zhiming Luo had gone, they searched all the nearby hostels and asked around, but no one had seen Zhiming Luo.
By ten o’clock in the evening, most shops had closed. Being unfamiliar with the provincial city and even struggling to speak clearly, people spoke Mandarin while they used local dialects which others barely understood, so they were casually brushed off.
Having no other choice, the two of them had to return home.
Back at home, Ai Hua Li had already left, and not long ago Zhao Longsheng had come over and taken her back.
Yu’er and Honglan Luo also returned to their shop.
Knowing that the two hadn’t even eaten before they left, and certainly hadn’t had the chance to eat by now, Pingying Fang heated up the earlier prepared meals and brought them to the dining room for them to eat.
As soon as Pingying Fang called him, Dashan Luo immediately went over to the table to eat, but Yun Mei Zhou glared at Pingying Fang irritably, as if Pingying Fang had caused all the trouble.
Pingying Fang didn’t bother with her. She had not interfered in any of it from start to finish, not even giving any advice to Zhiyong Luo. Even if there was any problem, it had nothing to do with her.
Furthermore, Zhiming Luo was a grown man with a lot of money in his pocket, so what could go wrong? She wouldn’t be surprised if Zhiming Luo had taken the money and gone off to enjoy himself somewhere.
Having called her and heated the meals, if Yun Mei Zhou refused to eat, Pingying Fang just went back to her room, took out the knitting wool for her child’s sweater, and sat on the sofa knitting while watching TV.
A very funny movie was playing on the TV, and Pingying Fang couldn’t help but laugh a few times.
This completely infuriated Yun Mei Zhou, who was already somewhat angry. She stood up, smacked the TV cabinet with a slap, and yelled, "It’s so annoying, what’s there to laugh at? Do you even have a conscience? After all, Zhiyong is your brother-in-law. You’re happy when he’s in trouble?"
The smile on Pingying Fang’s face disappeared as she looked at Yun Mei Zhou, "What are you trying to say?"
"This time, with Zhiming’s issue, you just watch silently, but who knows what bad ideas you’re harboring inside, probably seducing Zhiyong tonight to neglect his brother," Yun Mei Zhou became more agitated as she spoke, pointing at Pingying Fang, "That’s right, it’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you two being so heartless, why would Zhiming end up ?"
"You..." Zhiyong Luo stepped forward wanting to speak, but Pingying Fang stopped him with her hand.
Pingying Fang really got angry this time. In the past, she managed the household matters and according to Yun Mei Zhou, she was wrong. This time she took the approach of not managing anything, yet she did her utmost with the lodging, but Yun Mei Zhou still said she was wrong, even claiming she incited Zhiyong Luo.
She angrily threw the sweater she was knitting onto the sofa, glared coldly at Yun Mei Zhou, and yelled, "What has become of it? Is Zhiming Luo dead or disabled, or has someone kidnapped him or what?"
Yun Mei Zhou and the others were taken aback by her outburst, and said nothing for a long while.
Pingying Fang continued, "Zhiming Luo is over twenty years old, has been staying in the provincial city for so long, and now has so much money on him, how could he mistreat himself? What are you so anxious about?"
"Besides, after taking the money, he didn’t come to see you or even inform you as parents, just disappeared without a trace. You don’t blame them, but instead you blame us. Really, I think you see us as easier targets to bully or something."
"This..." Yun Mei Zhou, regaining her composure, geared up for a quarrel, "That’s really it, now that you have someone backing you up, you’re not afraid to talk to me ."
Pingying Fang glared at her, "I used to be too accommodating, busy to death at home every day and still bullied by you all. Finally, I moved to the city to avoid you, and you still haunt me like a persistent spirit, stirring up trouble after a while. I’ve endured all that, but now you’re ranting over such a trivial matter in my house, what exactly do you want?"
"You..." Yun Mei Zhou was choked up and didn’t know how to respond.
Pingying Fang looked at her, then added, "If you’re really worried, go find him yourself, if he’s not here, search another district. If necessary, search the entire provincial city, you’ll eventually find him."
"You..." Yun Mei Zhou was truly aggrieved today, having been scolded by Ai Hua Li earlier and now by Pingying Fang. She rolled up her sleeves in a gesture of getting ready to physically fight.
Zhiyong Luo and Dashan Luo saw this, quickly walked over, and each held one back.
"Forget it, stop arguing. Pingying is right, Zhiming is an adult and nothing will happen to him. We’ll look again tomorrow, he might return then." After saying that, Dashan Luo forcefully pulled Yun Mei Zhou into the bedroom and didn’t come out again.
Seeing the angry-faced Pingying Fang, Zhiyong Luo also pulled her into the room, "Forget it, my mum will go back tomorrow anyway, we won’t let her come to the provincial city in the future."
Pingying Fang snorted, "Next time she comes, I won’t bother with her either."
Zhiyong Luo nodded, with Yun Mei Zhou causing trouble each time she came, he dared not let her visit again in the future.
After calming down a bit, Pingying Fang’s anger subsided as well.
Since she became pregnant, her temper had been ; quick to come and quick to go.
She thought about Zhiming Luo’s case and asked Zhiyong Luo in a low voice, "Can you guess where Zhiming Luo might have gone?"
Zhiyong Luo shook his head, "Who knows, I don’t want to deal with his affairs."
Pingying Fang thought for a moment and shared her speculation, "I think he must have gone to Xu He’s place."
"Really? Did they really get together that time?" Although Zhiyong Luo also suspected this, he was unsure and unwilling to believe that Zhiming Luo and Xu He had gotten together.
Moreover, he would rather believe that between Zhiming Luo and Xu He it was like before, with Zhiming Luo being one-sided about it. If there was actually something substantial between them, he really didn’t know what the Luo family would turn into.
Pingying Fang looked at him and smiled slightly, "Just wait and see, maybe the next time you see Zhiming Luo, you’ll have to call Xu He your sister-in-law."
"..." Zhiyong Luo opened his mouth, unsure what to say. After thinking for a while, he found a reason, "Isn’t Zhiming still not divorced from Fang Xiu?"
"He’ll be divorced soon," Pingying Fang asserted confidently, estimating that it wouldn’t be long before Zhiming Luo would divorce Fang Xiu. (To be continued.
