However, Zuo Weiyi was already prepared. She raised her hand and easily grabbed Xiao Yayue’s wrist. Then, she swung it fiercely. Xiao Yayue staggered and crashed into a shelf. Immediately, she felt a pain at her waist!
“Go and tell Shi Tiannan to be careful these few days. Because if he’s not careful, his little life might be lost,” Zuo Weiyi said coldly to Xiao Yayue. Then, she turned around and looked at Shen Lanzhi, “Mom, let’s eat.”
As soon as she said that, she tugged at Shen Lanzhi and sat down at the dining table, completely ignoring the angry Xiao Yayue!
Xiao Yayue held her aching wrist and slowly stood up. She stared angrily at the two people who started eating at the dining table. Her heart was burning with anger, but she had noway to let it out!
“You, you just wait and see!” Xiao Yayue warned angrily before turning around and leaving.
She was going to the hospital to demand an explanation from the old man!
She had lived for decades, but she was actually beaten by a woman like Shen Lanzhi!
After Xiao Yayue left, Shen Lanzhi raised her head with a solemn expression.
Then, she turned her gaze to Zuo Weiyi’s face. She was worried Zuo Weiyi beating Xiao Yayue, afraid that Shi Le would blame her.
After all, even though Xiao Yayue had left the Shi family all these years, the Shi Le did not dislike her because of that. Therefore, if Shi Le found out about the slaps today, would he blame her and Weiyi for it?
Shen Lanzhi was absent-minded during the lunch.
After eating a little, the two of them cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks.
“Mom, let me do it. Go find some ice cubes and apply some on your face,” Zuo Weiyi said as he saw that Shen Lanzhi’s cheeks were already red and swollen from the slap.
That Xiao Yayue was really ruthless. Her hands must have hurt from the slap, right?
Although there were only two of them eating, there were a lot of dishes to wash. Shen Lanzhi did not want her to clean up by herself, so she helped Weiyi clean up before she found some ice cubes and applied some on her face.
On the coffee table, the phone rang again.
The moment she heard the phone ring, Shen Lanzhi heart skipped a beat.
It must be Shi Le.
Zuo Weiyi was about to pick it up, but Shen Lanzhi stopped her. “Let me.”
She looked at her but did not get up. Instead, she let Shen Lanzhi pick up the phone.
She was expecting Shi Le’s voice, but when she heard another voice from the other end, Shen Lanzhi’s face lit up.
“Mom…”
“Nuannuan? Where did you go? Why didn’t you come back for lunch? Why didn’t you say anything when you went out?” Hearing her daughter’s voice, Shen Lanzhi wanted to scold her, but she couldn’t bear to.
Her worried heart finally settled down.
But Nuannuan sounded a little hesitant on the phone.
“Mommy, I… I came to Country G.”
Her words surprised Shen Lanzhi. Then she frowned and asked, “Country Z? What are you there for?”
“I…” Nuannuan stuttered on the phone. “A friend of mine from college had some trouble at home, so… so he asked me to come over and help.”
“Help? But it’s almost New Year’s.”
“I know. I’ll be back before New Year’s Eve. Don’t worry!”
“Then please take care of yourself. There will be too many people around New Year’s time.”
“Got it, Mommy. I’m leaving the station. I’m hanging up now.”
“The station?” Shen Lanzhi frowned again. “Didn’t you go there by plane? Why are you at the station?”
