Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 639 - 634: Mutual Destruction

As soon as Fang Pingying appeared, the two kids were thrilled, racing over to her side and loudly calling out, "Mom."

The shouts caught the attention of Luo Zhiyong and Luo Dashan inside the house, and both of them immediately peeked out. Upon seeing Fang Pingying, both were momentarily stunned. It seemed that Luo Dashan felt somewhat guilty for what Luo Zhiming had said about Haohao and chose not to speak.

However, Luo Zhiyong quickly came over from inside the house and asked softly, "Did you come over because there’s something you need?"

Fang Pingying nodded and said, "About Guangsheng’s car accident, I have something to tell you."

Luo Zhiyong agreed and gestured downstairs, suggesting, "Let’s talk down there."

Seeing that mom and dad were about to go downstairs, Yaoyao immediately followed Luo Zhiyong, exclaiming, "Daddy, I’m coming too."

Luo Zhiyong smiled tenderly, crouched down to hold her tiny hand, and chuckled, "Yaoyao, go home and play with brother and auntie, daddy will be back very soon."

Yaoyao was reluctant, but Luo Honglan forcefully carried her away, and that settled it.

When the two reached downstairs, Fang Pingying didn’t beat around the bush and asked Luo Zhiyong, "What did the military find out about Guangsheng’s incident?"

Luo Zhiyong hadn’t returned to the military and still thought that Guangsheng’s accident was just that—an accident. He frowned and asked, "You think Guangsheng’s car accident wasn’t an accident?"

Fang Pingying nodded and shared her suspicions about Bai Jing with Luo Zhiyong, who after listening, also felt that Bai Jing was capable of such actions.

He thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Keep this quiet for now. I’ll have someone from the military look into it secretly, or perhaps once Guangsheng wakes up, he can give us some clues. In any case, before we understand the full scope of what happened, let’s not stir things up, or we might end up like last time in the hospital, where Bai Jing found an excuse and escaped."

It was well known that Zhou Guangsheng had a heart for Juzi, yet no concrete evidence could be found.

Fang Pingying also knew that Bai Jing was extraordinarily good at dealing with such situations; she nodded and said, "Yeah, I know, I haven’t mentioned it to Xiu’er either."

"Okay."

Seeing that Luo Zhiyong had roughly understood the situation, Fang Pingying didn’t stay long and said, "I came for this matter, and now that it’s clear, I’ll leave. I still need to send lunch to Xiu’er and the others at noon."

"Okay," Luo Zhiyong said. Just as Fang Pingying turned to leave, having only taken a few steps, Luo Zhiyong suddenly called after her, "Pingying, what I said just now was true."

"Um," Fang Pingying didn’t understand which words Luo Zhiyong meant; she raised her eyebrow at him, but inside felt vaguely that what Luo Zhiyong had told Luo Zhiming, no matter what, he would still care for her and keep her in his heart.

Luo Zhiyong moved his lips as if he had more to say, but in the end, he didn’t speak, just saying, "After lunch, I’ll send Yaoyao and Ruirui back."

Fang Pingying gave him a glance, lightly smiled, and walked away.

After Fang Pingying left the Luo family’s place, she hurriedly made lunch and brought it to the hospital.

Unexpectedly, as she was delivering the lunch, she caught Luo Zhiming sneaking around the door of the intensive care unit, peering inside.

Fang Pingying furrowed her brow, wondering if Luo Zhiming was planning to confront Fang Xiu about the children directly.

She walked up with the lunch box and stood behind Luo Zhiming, staying silent but staring coldly at the back of his head.

Luo Zhiming probably sensed someone behind him; he abruptly turned around and upon seeing Fang Pingying, he stumbled backward several steps in shock.

After steadying himself, he moved back a few more steps and asked Fang Pingying, "Don’t you know scaring people can scare them to death? What are you doing standing behind me like that?"

Fang Pingying glanced at him and cut straight to the point, "Luo Zhiming, let me advise you, since you and Xu He are doing fine, just focus on that and don’t target Fang Xiu. Especially now, if she finds out you’re thinking of taking Haohao away, she might kill you."

"You..."

Just as Luo Zhiming was about to respond, Fang Xiu suddenly appeared before them. It seemed she had heard their conversation and learned that Luo Zhiming was targeting Haohao. Her face turned extremely grim, her chest heaving from suppressed anger, evidently on the verge of losing her composure.

She glared at Luo Zhiming, cursing him word by word,

"Luo Zhiming, you damned wretch, what do you want, fighting me for Haohao? By what right, do you think you are to Haohao?"

Luo Zhiming had never seen this side of Fang Xiu, and though shocked, he defiantly responded, "By what right? By the right that I am Haohao’s father."

"If Haohao knew he had a father like you, he’d be ashamed," Fang Xiu’s expression darkened further, her eyes dead set on Luo Zhiming, pointing down "Luo Zhiming, I’m telling you, if you dare to take my Haohao away, believe it or not, I will kill you right now, and after you’re gone, I will jump down from here, let’s die together."

Luo Zhiming didn’t believe Fang Xiu had the courage, he sneered dismissively, "Don’t scare me, I just..."

Before Luo Zhiming could finish, Fang Xiu screamed suddenly and dragged him towards the nearest window by the staircase, preparing to push him down with her hands and feet, clearly determined.

Honestly, what Fang Xiu was doing wasn’t just to scare Luo Zhiming; the recent event involving Zhou Guangsheng left her feeling life had lost its meaning, sometimes so frustrated that she just wanted to die to end the torment.

Besides dealing with this, now that Luo Zhiming dared to target Haohao, in a moment of impulsiveness, she really wanted to kill someone to vent her anger.

Luo Zhiming was thoroughly frightened by Fang Xiu. At first, he couldn’t recover, but seeing that Fang Xiu indeed intended to push him downstairs, he immediately grabbed onto the main window’s frame while shouting, "Fine, if Haohao isn’t my child then he isn’t, I’ll let it be, just don’t go crazy."

Even so, Fang Xiu didn’t relent, forcing him to swear, "Swear that you won’t target Haohao again, or I will make you die a gruesome death, not just you, I will kill your entire family too, believe it or not."

Without hesitation, Luo Zhiming raised his hand and swore to the sky, "I swear."

Seeing Luo Zhiming’s acceptable attitude, Fang Xiu finally let him go, then she herself sat down on the balcony, leaning against the wall, and began crying hysterically.

Luo Zhiming, already terribly frightened by the ordeal, seeing Fang Xiu crying like a lunatic, he fled immediately.
