CHAPTER 667: CHAPTER 662: SNATCHING HAOHAO AWAY

Fang Pingying knew well the kind of person Xu He was. The nicer her smile, the more outrageous her demands would be. Cutting off her speech, Fang Pingying looked at Xu He and said, "Xu He, cut the crap. Everyone knows who you are. I’m giving you two minutes to state the purpose of your visit to my home.

"I..." Xu He, when addressed so directly by Fang Pingying, didn’t know how to continue and shook her head looking at Luo Zhiming for him to speak.

Luo Zhiyong surely wouldn’t tell the truth. He just smiled, pointed at the items in his hand, and said, "We mean no harm. We just wanted to come and see Haohao, we..."

When it came to Haohao, Fang Pingying was truly enraged.

Although Fang Xiu was afraid of Luo Zhiming, and knew deep down it annoyed her that Luo Zhiming was trying to get close to Haohao, she didn’t dare to speak too much against it. She feared that if Luo Zhiming took things seriously, he would fight with her for Haohao.

However, Fang Pingying believed that even if Haohao really was Luo Zhiming’s child, and even if he was serious about taking Haohao away, given Luo Zhiming’s longstanding attitude of ignoring the child, he would not be able to take him.

On the contrary, if it really came to a legal battle, it would resolve everything once and for all, instead of Luo Zhiming coming to bother them frequently in the future.

So, Fang Pingying decisively made herself clear, "Luo Zhiming, you should be more decent. Remember the state you left Fang Xiu in back then? When Fang Xiu was pregnant, you were already involved with Xu He, planning to get married."

"When Fang Xiu was giving birth in the hospital, your Luo Family clearly had people around, but you ignored her to avoid the expense. Your mother even personally said that no matter what, the child would have nothing to do with your Luo Family from then on. Now that the child has grown up, you want to acknowledge your kinship? Is there really such a good deal in this world? If you think so, why not wait until Haohao is a bit older before acknowledging him? By that time, the child won’t need your money, and you can directly depend on him for support."

Pausing for a moment, Fang Pingying glanced at Xu He standing beside Luo Zhiming, not forgetting to kindly remind him, "And don’t tell me Xu He by your side would have the heart to agree to support another woman’s child. If she really said something like this in front of others, I suggest you think carefully about her purpose and whether Xu He is really such a good woman."

Xu He had ulterior motives, knowing Luo Zhiming was a pushover, easily deceived without any suspicion. But Fang Pingying’s words were a genuine reminder to Luo Zhiming. If he took them to heart, he might very well reflect on these matters after returning home.

Therefore, she became embarrassed and furiously shouted at Fang Pingying, "Fang Pingying, don’t act so high and mighty. We came to your door, politely calling you ’sister-in-law,’ and you, you don’t give us any face at all, and you even speak such unpleasant words. What do you want?"

Fang Pingying frowned, about to reply, but Luo Zhi, who was playing with the kids in the bedroom and pushing the wheelchair out, asked, "What’s going on, who is it?"

At the door, seeing Luo Zhiming and Xu He, Luo Zhiyong’s face immediately darkened, "Luo Zhiming, why did you come here? Do we have anything left to talk about?"

"Big Brother..." Luo Zhiming, seeing Luo Zhiyong, tried to speak.

But immediately after, Haohao and a few other kids ran out from the room as well.

Upon seeing Luo Zhiming, Haohao affectionately ran up to him and hugged his leg, calling out cheerfully, "Uncle, you’re here."

Hearing this, Luo Zhiming immediately squatted down, picked up Haohao, and lifted the items in his hand, "Haohao, Uncle has brought you some snacks."

Haohao was extremely happy, immediately smiling as he leaned against Luo Zhiming’s shoulder and said, "Thank you, Uncle."

Seeing this, Luo Zhiming intentionally enticed Haohao, "Uncle will take you downstairs to play, okay?"

"Okay." Haohao couldn’t wait, as the other few kids had already been making a fuss about wanting to go out and play.

Not just Haohao, Yaoyao and Ruirui also eagerly shouted their agreement.

Fang Pingying, upon seeing this, first nudged Ruirui and Yaoyao back into the room, then extended her hand to take Haohao from Luo Zhiming, while calling out, "Zhiyong, take them inside."

But as Fang Pingying was about to pull Haohao back into the house, Xu He whispered something into Luo Zhiming’s ear. Then, gritting his teeth, Luo Zhiming suddenly picked up the child, forcefully pushed Fang Pingying away, and hurriedly went downstairs.

Seeing this, Fang Pingying and Luo Zhiyong shouted out loud, with Luo Zhiyong anxiously standing up from his chair, wanting to give chase, but his injured leg hadn’t fully recovered and, having no choice, he sat back down immediately.

Fang Pingying figured that Luo Zhiming wouldn’t dare to just blatantly kidnap the child; she told Luo Zhiyong not to move and went to chase after them herself.

But as she stepped out the door, she was blocked by Xu He.

Xu He deliberately stood with her pregnant belly in front of Fang Pingying, not believing that Fang Pingying would dare to do anything to her in that state.

In any case, Bai Jing should be waiting at the hospital by now; as long as they bring the child there for a blood test, the plan would be deemed successful. If she delayed Fang Pingying for a bit, everything could be done on the other end.

Xu He was blocking Fang Pingying, whose worry caused by the uncertainty of Luo Zhiming’s actions with Haohao added to her frustration and anger. Suddenly, as if by miracle, she grabbed Xu He by the throat and slammed her against the stair’s handrail, her eyes bloodshot as she stared down at her, "Xu He, tell me right away, where exactly did Luo Zhiming take Haohao?"

Xu He coughed a few times from being choked by Fang Pingying, but her mouth was stubbornly sealed, retorting, "I won’t tell, if you dare, just strangle me to death, Fang Pingying. But think carefully, you may not care about killing me, but the child in my womb is the Luo Family’s only offspring. If you kill me, the Luo Family will never let you off."

Seeing Fang Pingying acting as if she had lost her reason, Luo Zhiyong feared she might accidentally strangle Xu He to death, and hastily shouted, "Pingying, let her go, make her talk."

Fang Pingying ignored the two, her eyes still red as she said to Xu He, "Xu He, originally I didn’t want to meddle with your messy affairs with the Luo Family, but now that you dare to target my Haohao, I will absolutely not let you off."

After a brief pause, looking at Fang Xiu, Fang Pingying spoke word by word, "Remember my words, if the child you give birth to can bear the Luo surname, I, Fang Pingying, will write my name backwards."

Fang Pingying’s words made Xu He’s heart skip a beat, because the child in her belly wasn’t from the Luo Family after all; any mention of it would make her anxious, let alone the forthright way Fang Pingying said it.

Moreover, not just Xu He, even Luo Zhiyong was feeling somewhat suspicious at that moment, staring straight at Fang Pingying, carefully pondering the meaning behind her words.
