Reborn Spicy Little Wife

Chapter 561 He's been pretending all along

Luo Baiwan: "..."

“My mom can’t bear to part with me. After all, you’re sending me to such a far place. I haven’t even left home yet, and she can’t stand it.”

Luo Ning was spouting nonsense with a straight face, and her father's attitude said it all.

Even after twenty years of ups and downs as a couple, nothing could replace Bai Xi's place in his heart.

This is not a tragedy for the mother, but rather that Bai Xi's presence is too strong.

"Da Ya, think about it again. Your aunt said she has something important to do and will come back home." Her sister had mentioned this to her a few days ago. If Luo Ning doesn't leave this time, she will come again next time.

Luo Ning's heart sank, and she inexplicably felt like Grey Wolf had been kicked away.

She wasn't afraid of Bai Xi coming back; she lit a fire and set up a pot, waiting for her!

Once she joined the war, the situation was no longer under Bai Xi's control.

Bai Xi gave her mother medicine, but her mother gave Bai Xi poison.

She doesn't like owing others, nor does she like others owing her.

She usually repays kindness on the spot.

If she had a grudge, she would take revenge if she could at the time; if she couldn't, then a woman's revenge is never too late, even after twenty years.

She only had the life-saving pills left, but she had a whole bunch of poisons.

The madman she encountered in her past life was a master of poison making, and she was forced to inherit his mantle.

She's a professional at both drug production and detoxification!

Bai Xi knew nothing about her power, yet dared to confront her.

If Bai Xi doesn't want to die, she will come back!

"My mom isn't seriously ill, she just doesn't want me to go to the US. Now that I'm not leaving, she'll get better soon. My aunts are here and will take care of her. My mom will come out of the examination room in a little while, you can go see her, then Chang'an will take you out for a meal, and then you can go back to the company."

"Tiger Cub hasn't been found yet, and my brother-in-law can't go to the company. You need to keep a close eye on things. Luo Wei's company has been shut down; he'll definitely suspect we're behind it. You need to keep a close watch and prevent him from taking advantage of any loopholes. Have Luo Hai review the female workers we've hired."

Luo Baiwan nodded repeatedly, and when he saw the door open and Liu Aihong come out, he immediately went to greet her.

Luo Ning asked Chen Fan to keep an eye on things here. She left the hospital, found a post office, and called Ling to ask him to help her look up Bai Xi.

Bai Xi knew everything about their family, but she knew nothing about Bai Xi's situation. This feeling of not being able to control the situation was terrible.

As Luo Ning was about to leave, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure and immediately shrank back.

God knows why she did it, but that's what she did.

After Xie Chang'an helped Luo Baiwan into the car, he found a nearby post office.

He's submitted so many marriage application forms; he should be getting a response by now.

As soon as the call connected, Xie Chang'an got straight to the point, "Commander, has my marriage application been approved?"

"What marriage report?" Yang Zheng looked at the letter in front of him, his brows furrowing.

"I didn't receive any marriage certificate! But I did receive a letter of complaint from Jiangbei..."

Xie Chang'an hung up the phone, paid the bill, and left the post office, feeling very conflicted.

The army called him back, but how could he leave home with peace of mind given the current situation?

Luo Ning emerged from the corner, gazing at Xie Chang'an's retreating figure, and sighed inwardly.

An anonymous villager from Qing'an Village reported seeing Zhang Caixia carrying a bundle heading in the direction of Grandma Xie's house last night.

Wang Tiejun, whose eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion, immediately rallied the villagers and rushed to Xie's house, where only Xie Yaolin was home.

I don’t know if I ask three questions!

Wang Tiejun staggered out, his heart filled with despair.

Uncle Qi hurried over, leaning on his cane, and called out as he walked, "Tiejun, I suddenly remembered, there's another road leading out of our village, down from the woods behind Old Xie's house. It's been abandoned for over twenty years because of a landslide."

Upon hearing Uncle Qi's words, some of the older villagers slapped their foreheads, realizing there was indeed another road.

That road is in the woods, and there's a particularly steep section with a cliff below. It collapsed and was abandoned more than twenty years ago.

Wang Tiejun's hope was instantly rekindled, and he turned and ran towards the back of Old Xie's house.

Uncle Qi immediately ordered a dozen or so villagers to take ropes and go with him.

Wang Tiejun ran wildly along the mountain road and discovered that the road was not only not abandoned, but was also being used recently.

The other villagers who were watching the drama were dumbfounded. How could this be?

However, when Wang Tiejun chased after Huwa to the highway, he found no trace of him, only a cigarette butt on the road.

Thus, the cigarette butt became evidence in court and was handed over to Liu Chunsheng.

After sending his daughter-in-law up the mountain, Li Laoguai came to help find Huwa.

Liu Chunsheng walked out with his cigarette butt in his hand, thinking to himself that it would be nice if his older cousin were here.

As Liu Chunsheng was deep in thought, he bumped into someone entering the room just as he was leaving.

His leather shoe happened to step on Old Li's broken leg.

"I'm so sorry, Uncle Li, I didn't mean to!"

As Liu Chunsheng lifted his foot, he tripped over his loose shoelace and stepped on Li Laoguai's foot. "Uh, I really didn't mean to!"

I did it on purpose!

If he hadn't suddenly had a sudden urge, he really wouldn't have discovered that Old Man Li had been faking his lameness all along.

"You unlucky kid!" Old Li fumed, his gaze falling on Liu Chunsheng's hands, his eyes flickering.

"Luckily, this leg of mine is broken, otherwise you would have stepped on it and ruined it. Where are you going?"

Liu Chunsheng smiled, pointed to the east, picked up the bag, and walked away quickly.

Half an hour later, near the threshing ground, Old Li was jumping up and down at the haystack.

"You bastard, who told you to smoke while working! Find Luo Ning and kill him!"

The haystack shook a few times, then returned to calm.

At 7 p.m., Luo Ning came out of the laboratory. Xie Chang'an, Liu Aihong and others immediately went up to her, wanting to ask but not daring to, for fear of hearing bad news.

Luo Ning handed the test report to Xie Chang'an and gave Zhou Ling a big smile, "It was a false alarm, my mom is fine."

"Thank God!" Zhou Ling and Zhang Yan exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief.

This day almost scared them to death! Luckily, the little sister was blessed with good fortune.

Xie Chang'an quickly skimmed through the report, his gaze landing on the final conclusion: a highly effective medicine for treating dizziness and headaches, with no toxic side effects.

He looked up at Luo Ning's retreating figure and felt that things were not so simple.

When Liu Aihong heard the news, she was overjoyed. Da Ya was too nervous and said that her sister-in-law would not do such a heartless thing.

She was not sick at the time, but she insisted on being discharged from the hospital, and Luo Ning readily agreed.

After leaving the hospital, the group had dinner at a restaurant outside.

Luo Ning sent them to the clothing company's staff quarters to settle down. She and her father were allocated apartments, enough for her mother and aunt to live in.

After everything was settled, Luo Ning and Xie Chang'an disappeared into the night.

Under the cover of darkness, the two drove back to town.

Luo Ning is worried because Tiger Cub has not been found yet.

She didn't know what had happened in the village that day, so she had to go back and check.

Xie Chang'an, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at Luo Ning and asked, "Where's the real report?"
