Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 664 - 659: A Meeting Between Two Bitches

Originally, Xu He thought that Luo Zhiming seemed to have become more motivated recently, and since she had treated him better during this visit, Luo Zhiming was also much nicer to her. She thought they could just get by for the time being.

But some things seem to be the will of heaven; just when Xu He was willing to make a good life with Luo Zhiming, some people and issues inevitably appeared as if they had been scheduled, impossible to prevent.

That day, Luo Zhiming went off to work, and Xu He, with nothing better to do at home, began organizing things. Coincidentally, she found 20 yuan in the closet.

Luo Zhiming had stuffed the 20 yuan into the pocket of a piece of clothing, wrapped in several layers of paper on the outside. If not for Xu He’s careful attention, she would have certainly thought they were just a few pieces of waste paper and wouldn’t have noticed them.

Obviously, this 20 yuan was secret savings accumulated by Luo Zhiming.

After much thought, Xu He concluded that Luo Zhiming was not extremely filial, so he certainly wouldn’t be saving this money to help his parents. And the household expenses were also accounted for—Xu He had given him money for that. So the remaining possibility was that Luo Zhiming had saved this money with the intention of buying something again for Haohao.

To confirm her suspicions, Xu He said nothing. When Luo Zhiming came back that day, she didn’t question him and acted as if nothing had happened.

However, she was secretly watching Luo Ming; she wanted to see when Luo Zhiming would take the 20 yuan, and then she would be certain of what he was up to.

Conveniently, it rained the next day after Xu He found the money, and work at the construction site was halted. Pretending to rummage for clothes to change into from the wardrobe, Luo Zhiming hastily stuffed the 20 yuan into his own pocket and then made an excuse to head out to buy groceries.

Xu He agreed pleasantly, but turned around and stealthily followed Luo Zhiming. Sure enough, she saw Luo Zhiming buying a bunch of snacks and some toys for children right where they lived, and then he headed towards Luo Dashan’s residence.

Without a doubt, this was to bring gifts to Haohao.

Seething with anger, Xu He thought she must resolve the matter between Luo Zhiming and Haohao as soon as possible. If Luo Zhiming wants to recognize his biological son, she is determined not to let him do so.

However, she also knew that to stop Luo Zhiming from acknowledging Haohao, she must have evidence that Haohao is not his biological son. The only way is to go for a hospital test. Although she was not clear on how paternity testing worked, she had heard Luo Zhiming mention it before and had a vague understanding.

To confirm the relationship between Haohao and Luo Zhiming, she had to go to the hospital for paternity testing. Moreover, she also had to consider what to do in case the test confirms that Haohao and Luo Zhiming are biologically related, which would effectively help the father and son to truly recognize each other.

She certainly wouldn’t do such a foolish thing; if she were to act, it would have to ensure that Haohao and Luo Zhiming could in no way be biologically related.

To ensure that, she would definitely need someone’s help.

But who should she turn to?

In fact, the first person Xu He thought of was Shuanzi.

She knew Shuanzi’s background and had interacted with him before. Remembering the two sets of clothes that Shuanzi had given her, she even blushed at the thought. She knew Shuanzi was the type who could easily handle such matters.

But after pondering it over, she again felt that Shuanzi was somewhat dangerous and, if possible, she was not quite ready to get involved with Shuanzi just yet.

So she racked her brains and suddenly thought of someone—Bai Jing.

She remembered that Bai Jing had given her a phone number and said that as long as it was about the Fang Family’s matters, she was interested and suggested Xu He to look for her if she ever ran into trouble.

Moreover, after the incident about Xu He’s pregnancy, Xu He felt that Bai Jing had quite a good standing in the hospital, and she was generous, or rather, Xu He vaguely knew that Bai Jing held a lot of resentment towards both the Fang Family and the Luo Family. She would definitely be happy to get involved in such matters. Bai Jing was the best candidate.

As such, she dug out the phone number Bai Jing had given her and tentatively made the call.

The phone rang several times before someone on the other end picked it up. Xu He took a few deep breaths and whispered, "Hello, I’m looking for Miss Bai, Bai Jing."

The person who answered the call happened to be Bai Jing herself. Hearing that the voice on the other end wasn’t quite right, Bai Jing felt slightly puzzled and quickly responded, "This is Bai Jing, who’s this?"

Upon hearing that it was Bai Jing herself who picked up, Xu He couldn’t be happier and immediately said, "Sister Bai, it’s me, Xu He. Do you remember me?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Xu He?" Bai Jing couldn’t quite recall at the moment. She had almost forgotten this person.

Xu He didn’t mind whether she mattered to Bai Jing or not; she quickly explained further, "I’m Luo Zhiming’s wife, Luo Zhiyong’s sister-in-law. You helped me before at the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing instantly remembered. Thinking of Xu He, her lips curved slightly, intuitively feeling that Xu He must have some unsavory business for her, definitely related to the Fang Family and the Luo Family.

Causing trouble for the Fang Family or the Luo Family was something Bai Jing was endlessly amused by.

It so happened that Bai Jing was holding a grudge because of Zhou Guangsheng’s injury. The last time she had visited Zhou Guangsheng, Fang Pingying had been there, and she had been embarrassed in front of her by Zhou Guangsheng’s words. These past days, she had been at home plotting revenge.

She immediately put on a different face, and her tone became much softer, "Oh it’s you, I remember now. What do you need from me?"

As soon as Bai Jing asked this, Xu He quickly spilled her request, "There’s something I need your help with, I’m not sure if..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Bai Jing promptly replied, "Okay, I’ll come to you right away."

After saying this, Bai Jing asked for Xu He’s current address and then told her that she would wait for her nearby in half an hour.

Forty minutes later, Bai Jing arrived at the designated place.

Bai Jing didn’t really remember what Fang Xiu looked like. In contrast, Fang Xiu had a deep impression of Bai Jing and called out to her from a distance.

Bai Jing walked up to Fang Xiu, looked at her protruding belly, and remarked with innuendo, "Wow, that’s quite a bump. Is it seven or eight months now?"

Xu He felt a bit embarrassed by Bai Jing’s comment and quickly told her the truth, "Actually, it’s seven months."

Bai Jing nodded then looked at Xu He with a hint of admiration, "Has the Fang Family been unaware of your pregnancy all this time? You’ve kept it pretty tight-lipped. Are you looking for me because you need help with the baby’s birth?"

Xu He quickly waved her hands and said, "That’s nothing. Where I’m from in the countryside, giving birth earlier or later isn’t a big deal. I can cover it up. The reason I’m looking for you today is..."

Xu He told Bai Jing all about Haohao and Luo Zhiming’s situation. She wanted Bai Jing’s help to arrange a paternity test with something belonging to Luo Zhiming at the hospital, and she wanted Bai Jing to issue any kind of test result. The most important thing was for the test results to show that Luo Zhiming was not Haohao’s biological father.
