Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 661 - 656: Hatred

Luo Honglan was also worried that Luo Zhiyong had just made peace with Fang Pingying, and it seemed like the Luo Family was about to cause trouble again. She immediately took up the conversation and said, "Big brother, I got it. I’ll go to second brother’s place tomorrow and make sure he picks up second sister-in-law soon."

Luo Zhiyong nodded, then he glanced at Fang Pingying and said softly, "Pingying, you don’t need to worry about these matters. If you run into them, just act as if you don’t recognize them. Treat them the same way you treat anyone else. If they make trouble at my dad’s place, I’ll handle it."

Fang Pingying intended to do the same and nodded in agreement, "Mm."

After finishing the talk, Luo Honglan had to rush back home to cook for Luo Dashan, so she said she would leave first.

On her way home, Luo Honglan deliberately looked around to see if Xu He and her daughter were in the vicinity.

Sure enough, just as she passed by a pastry shop nearby, without even realizing it, Xu He and her daughter spotted her and ran over like she was a lifesaver, grabbing onto Luo Honglan.

Luo Honglan was startled by their sudden approach and repeatedly asked, "What... what are you doing?"

Xu He’s attitude toward Luo Honglan was even more arrogant than toward Fang Pingying. She grabbed Luo Honglan and asked irritably, "You little wretch, tell me where your second brother is. We need to find him."

Luo Honglan didn’t bother arguing with her and pointed in the direction to get rid of her quickly, rolling her eyes and saying straightaway, "My second brother is working at a construction site not far from here. He also rented a place not too far away. I’ll tell you the address; you can go find him."

Seeing that Luo Honglan was being straightforward, Xu He didn’t say more and asked, "The address."

Anyway, it was Luo Zhiming’s wife, and Luo Zhiming himself would handle it. Luo Honglan didn’t linger and immediately told them Luo Zhiming’s address.

After knowing the address, Duan Fenghua and Xu He planned to go there. However, after walking a few steps forward, Xu He turned back and said to Luo Honglan, "You little wretch, you better not be lying to me. If I can’t find Luo Zhiming, I’ll come looking for you."

Luo Honglan thought to herself that she couldn’t care less, but still impatiently waved her hand, "Stop nagging, just go find him."

"Hmph," Xu He snorted coldly and walked away with Duan Fenghua.

It was really quite a coincidence. When Fang Xiu went to find Luo Zhiming, after walking about half a mile, she bumped into him. They met in the middle of the road, and Luo Zhiming bought some snacks for Haohao to eat, stuffing them into Fang Xiu’s hands. Fang Xiu refused to take them, but Luo Zhiming said, "Haohao is my son after all. I’ve never provided for him before. Buying some snacks is a little token of my affection. Don’t reject it."

As soon as Duan Fenghua saw Luo Zhiming, she was thrilled and was about to shout loudly, "Luo..."

But Xu He covered her mouth with her hand and pulled her aside to a place where they could hide, whispering, "Mom, wait a minute. Did you hear what was just said? Luo Zhiming said Haohao is his son. What does that mean?"

"Who is Haohao?"

Xu He said, "That’s the child Fang Xiu had when she was with Luo Zhiming."

"That child is Luo Zhiming’s?" Duan Fenghua was surprised, then began to curse through gritted teeth, "No wonder Luo Zhiming stopped caring about you ever since he came to the city. He acknowledged his own son, and now he’s getting cozy with Fang Xiu."

While saying this, Duan Fenghua, looking at Luo Zhiming and Fang Xiu in the distance who were in a tussle, wished she could step forward and slap Luo Zhiming to death, "This damned man, I must teach him a lesson."

"Mom, no rush to teach him a lesson." Xu He watched the two in the distance, her eyes slightly glazed, and said word by word, "Remember, we’ll pretend we don’t know about this for now. I’ll deal with what comes later."

Duan Fenghua was confused, "Hehua, you..."

Xu He nodded reassuringly at Duan Fenghua, comforting her, "Mom, I have a plan. Trust me, I won’t let myself be wronged."

In Xu He’s view, although she was forced to marry Luo Zhiming, she had never truly considered being with Luo Zhiming for a lifetime.

Initially, she was willing to marry Luo Zhiming because she was deceived by him, thinking he had really made a fortune, and she wanted to enjoy a good life with him.

Later on, it became difficult to back out, as she was threatened by Luo Zhiming and Zhou Yunmei, and she didn’t dare not to marry.

Further on, there was the child in her belly, and there had to be someone to acknowledge it. Naturally, to maintain her reputation, she could only have Luo Zhiming acknowledge it.

Moreover, she hadn’t encountered anyone more suitable than Luo Zhiming for the time being, so she just lived one day at a time.

She always thought that if she met another good man, she would kick Luo Zhiming away at any time, and even now, she still thought so.

Therefore, she was never interested in whether Luo Zhiming had affairs outside or not. As long as Luo Zhiming brought money home, she could ignore everything. But now, seeing Luo Zhiming with Fang Xiu, fire flared in her eyes.

She couldn’t stand losing to the two sisters of the Fang Family time after time.

Originally, in the competition for Luo Zhiyong, she lost to Fang Pingying, and now, it seemed she was about to lose to Fang Xiu.

So, even if she didn’t want Luo Zhiming, she would not allow Luo Zhiming to be involved with Fang Xiu.

Also, having gained nothing from marrying Luo Zhiming for so long, she was far from resigned. Even if she despised Luo Zhiming, she would not break with him at this moment.

Conversely, at this time, she must win Luo Zhiming over to her side. First, let him spend money to provide for her pregnancy. After the child is born, let the Luo Family take care of the child for the time being.

As for the future, it would depend on the fate of the Luo Family.

If Xu He found a good family and didn’t need this child, then this secret could remain forever. The Luo Family could raise this child, who actually had no blood relation to the Luo Family, for their whole life, and also remain in the dark forever.

Alternatively, she could come back at any time to take the child, letting the Luo Family enjoy a brief joy, only to be disappointed. Thinking about that time, the expressions on Luo Zhiming and Zhou Yunmei made her feel extremely pleased.

As for the Fang Family sisters, she wouldn’t let them go easily, but for now, she had no power to deal with them.

Therefore, while Luo Zhiming and Fang Xiu were in a tussle, she held back Duan Fenghua, and they didn’t come out. When Fang Xiu and Luo Zhiming went their separate ways, the two of them followed Luo Zhiming for a short distance, then Xu He suddenly called out, "Zhiming, Zhiming."

Zhiming walked on, and faintly heard Xu He’s voice. At first, he was rather incredulous, but as Xu He called out louder, he looked around. Finally, he saw Xu He not far behind him.

He stood stunned for a good while before turning and walking over to Xu He. His voice lacked any hint of surprise, and it sounded rather impatient instead, "Why have you come?"
