Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 733 - 728: Finding the Clinic
(Thank you everyone for the rewards and monthly tickets, Si Ye has seen them all. Although not posted, they are remembered and greatly appreciated.)
Luo Zhiyong thought for a moment and quickly came to a suspicious point—or perhaps it’s not a suspicious point, but a clue that may lead to finding Luo Cuilan.
Because Zhou Yunmei and the others didn’t know that the child in Xu He’s womb belonged to someone else, but Luo Zhiyong’s side, through Fang Pingying’s speculation, and later confirmed by Luo Cuilan, they knew this and were certain of it.
As such, it’s obvious that Luo Cuilan’s disappearance is related to Xu He, or at least it could prove that Xu He had a motive to harm Luo Cuilan.
However, in front of Zhou Yunmei, Luo Zhiyong did not show anything, and when Luo Honglan on the side wanted to speak, he also stopped her.
He casually asked a few questions about Xu He giving birth to her child, such as which day the child was born, where it was born, and whether she and Luo Zhiming were on site to look after her during the birth.
To Zhou Yunmei’s ears, she was delighted, thinking that after so long, Luo Zhiyong had finally softened his heart, and was ready to forgive them. Otherwise, why would he ask so many questions?
She had always hoped to reconcile with Luo Zhiyong in her heart. Although Luo Zhiyong was not her biological child, he was currently the most outstanding and presentable one among all her children. Even if for her own future benefits, she also wanted to make peace.
Therefore, she was very happy, and with some excitement, she told Luo Zhiyong everything in detail.
Luo Zhiyong was not the fool that Luo Zhiming was, and easily gathered many inconsistencies from Zhou Yunmei’s words.
Setting aside all previous speculations, and without confirming whether the child in Xu He’s womb was Luo Zhiming’s or not, just the fact that Xu He was hiding from the Luo Family during her delivery was very problematic.
Any normal person, when giving birth to a child, would want more family members by their side, especially since this was Xu He’s first child.
Furthermore, the timing of the child’s birth is obviously wrong; even according to what Xu He said, the child was clearly premature.
But what Luo Zhiyong couldn’t understand was that even if the child in Xu He’s womb wasn’t Luo Zhiming’s, why would she hide and secretly give birth without Luo Zhiming, even though Luo Zhiming witnessing the birth would not be able to determine the child wasn’t his.
Unless there were other incidents during the birth, some secrets that could not be let out.
Therefore, for Luo Zhiyong, this was the biggest doubtful point.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his wife was truly a person of great wisdom, as if she had guessed the complexity of the situation before he arrived and even asked him to inquire at the Luo Family’s side before asking around.
It seems he really needed to go around asking now. After all, a woman giving birth at home would cause some commotion in the neighborhood, even if it was done quickly. No matter how capable Xu He and her daughter were, a midwife would certainly be called. And what exactly happened during the birth, the midwife would be the clearest.
However, because Luo Zhiyong worried that Zhou Yunmei might reveal her emotions to Xu He, he asked everything with great subtlety, asking here and there, pretending to be casual and nonchalant. He believed Zhou Yunmei wouldn’t think too much into it and would just assume it was Luo Zhiyong’s concern for the child.
After getting the information he needed from Zhou Yunmei, Luo Zhiyong called to Luo Honglan to leave.
Seeing that Luo Zhiyong was leaving, Zhou Yunmei suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Luo Zhiyong.
Luo Zhiyong looked at the hand on his arm, looked up at her, and didn’t speak.
For a moment, Zhou Yunmei felt awkward, and quickly released Luo Zhiyong’s hand, then with a somewhat embarrassed and reluctant look, but still with a tone that carried a hint of trying to please, she asked Luo Zhiyong, "Zhiyong, have you forgiven mom?"
Regarding this "mom", Luo Zhiyong couldn’t say whether he had forgiven or not. Even if he had forgiven, he would never again be as close with her as before. After all, some things had happened and couldn’t be undone.
To say he hadn’t forgiven would just be like the current situation, everyone going their separate ways, but in the end, they were still family. If their lives were really threatened, he would still intervene.
Therefore, he didn’t say much, just lightly said, "Let’s talk about it later; I’m quite busy recently. Take care of your health. If Zhiming has any issues, let him come to me."
Luo Zhiyong actually just threw out a perfunctory statement, but to Zhou Yunmei’s ears, it was already enough. At this time, she knew she couldn’t demand too much and quickly nodded her head, "Okay, okay, I understand."
Luo Zhiyong gave her a glance, nodded, and then called Luo Honglan to leave.
After the two left, Luo Zhiyong checked the surrounding terrain and observed the people around, thinking about how to find a suitable person to ask about the incident that day.
But Luo Honglan by his side had different thoughts. She recalled the relationship between Luo Zhiyong and Zhou Yunmei and for some reason, knowing this situation, she actually wanted to mediate. She softly said, "Big brother, actually, our mom..."
Luo Zhiyong seemed to know what she was going to say next and directly interrupted her, "Don’t talk about her, let’s go ask around first. The most urgent thing now is to find Cuilan. If we’re too late, I’m afraid something will happen to her."
"Big sister will be in trouble?" Luo Honglan suddenly realized, and recalling the purpose of their visit, she immediately asked, "Right, why didn’t we directly ask my mom and Xu He just now?"
Luo Zhiyong didn’t hide from Luo Cuilan, and pondered before saying, "Cuilan’s disappearance might be related to Xu He, we can’t afford to startle the snake."
"You mean my big sister was harmed by Xu He..." Luo Honglan stopped midway, remembering all the things Zhou Yunmei had said and then immediately nodding in agreement, "But it’s also possible. Just now mom said that they argued over this, which is why my big sister left."
Luo Zhiyong smiled at her approvingly, "Mhm, so let’s go around and ask, see if we can find any clues."
It was quite fortuitous that just after asking around their courtyard, Luo Zhiyong and Luo Honglan had planned to ask around some more, but Luo Zhiyong caught sight of a small clinic not far away, with a sign that said it was a gynecological clinic, which also included delivery services.
For some reason, Luo Zhiyong had an intuition that maybe they could discover something at this small clinic.
Thus, he whispered a few instructions to Luo Honglan, then directly took her and went inside.
