Chapter 63: Don’t Come Looking for Me Again

“He wants to talk.” Jiang Xiaochao swallowed the egg in his mouth and pouted.

Hu Yao smiled and wiped his small hands and mouth clean. Jiang Han ignored him, so she changed the subject and talked to him about small, interesting things.

When they got home, it was already completely dark. Jiang Xiaochao fell asleep halfway, Jiang Han carried him, his chubby little face was flattened on his shoulder, asleep with drool running down his chin.

Jiang Han didn’t mind, when he was slightly disturbed, he patted his back with a big hand, gently.

Jiang Xiaochao sucked in a mouthful of saliva, mumbled something, and hugged his neck tighter.

This scene was unprecedentedly warm and loving, Hu Yao couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

“What are you daydreaming about, open the door!” He glanced at her.

“Oh.” Hu Yao came back to her senses and found the key to open the door, letting him carry Jiang Xiaochao in first.

Jiang Han threw the sleeping Jiang Xiaochao onto the bed, and went out again after a while, saying he was going to find Tang Hao for a while.

This was the first time he told her before going somewhere, not counting his trips out of town.

“It’s too late, you don’t have to leave the door open for me, I might not be back tonight.” He left behind the last sentence.

Hu Yao watched his retreating back, lowered her eyes, and went to collect the clothes in the yard, folding them one by one.

He might not be back tonight, maybe going to find his other women?

After folding and putting away the clothes, Hu Yao went to Jiang Xiaochao’s room, looked at his cute and beautiful little face, and her eyes softened.

She adjusted his topsy-turvy sleeping position, and exited his room with light steps.

The house was equipped with electric lights, which was much more convenient than lighting candles or kerosene lamps before.

There was a shower room in the house, Hu Yao was about to turn off the lights in the hall and go for a bath, but a series of urgent knocks on the door came first, followed by Lin Zhaodi’s voice.

“Xiaoyao, are you back?”

Her voice was a little urgent, and a little panicked.

Hu Yao paused, hesitated for a moment, listening to the constant knocking, she still went to open the door.

“What’s wrong?”

The moment she opened the door and looked up, what met her eyes was Lin Zhaodi’s disheveled appearance, Hu Yao was stunned.

“Xiaoyao, you have to help me!” Lin Zhaodi grabbed Hu Yao’s hand, pleading earnestly.

Hu Yao frowned slightly.

Before she could ask anything, Lin Zhaodi spoke first.

It turned out that she had a little argument with Li Zhen today, and then they got angry and fought. Lin Zhaodi had been doing rough work, so her strength was definitely greater than Li Zhen’s. Li Zhen was usually arrogant, but she mostly just used her mouth and hadn’t really fought much, Lin Zhaodi completely beat her one-sidedly.

During the fight, Li Zhen miscarried.

She and Liu Jie had been married for three years without children, and this child came at this time, it was also their first child, Li Zhen herself didn’t know.

Now this child was gone because of Lin Zhaodi.

After Liu’s family sent Li Zhen to the hospital to confirm that the child was gone, they were all furious, Liu Jie was even red-eyed and wanted to kill Lin Zhaodi.

Liu’s family was now looking for Lin Zhaodi everywhere, Lin Zhaodi had been hiding and didn’t dare to show up, now it was dark, she dared to run to Hu Yao.

Hu Yao was the only one who could help her!

“Xiaoyao, I didn’t know she was pregnant! I didn’t mean to hurt her child! It was her! She was the one who first called my child a bastard! She even viciously tried to push me first!” Lin Zhaodi was flustered, what she said was true, no matter what, she never thought of hurting an innocent child, especially since she didn’t even know!

“Liu’s family is looking for me everywhere now, they don’t want to let me go! Xiaoya’s father went to town today to find work and wasn’t home, Xiaoyao, please help me! I heard that the old Liu woman also beat Xiaoya, they took their anger out on Xiaoya! If they catch me, I don’t know what will happen to me and the child in my belly! I can’t be caught by them!”

“Xiaoyao, I know you don’t like a lot of the things I’ve done, but what can I do, am I supposed to suffer like that for the rest of my life? Are we women just supposed to live like that? I used to want to fight them, at most I would fight for my life, my life is like that! But now it’s different, I have a child! I can’t die, the child can’t have anything happen to it! Xiaoyao, please help me! I won’t trouble you anymore!” Lin Zhaodi’s voice was intense.

Hu Yao’s eyes narrowed, she shook off her hand in disbelief: “You left Xiaoya alone at home for them to vent their anger?”

Lin Zhaodi was stunned, a complex look flashed in her eyes: “… Xiaoya, Xiaoya is just a little girl, no matter what, they won’t beat her to death, it has nothing to do with her, Xiaoyao…”

“Go away, I won’t help you.” Hu Yao interrupted her.

“I’ve already helped you last time, consider it as repayment for your care for me these four years.”

“Jiang Han gave you money is one thing, I’m still grateful for your kindness to me and Chao-chao, but it doesn’t mean I can always help you clean up the mess you’ve made! I’m not that capable! I don’t want to always trouble Jiang Han because of you.”

Hu Yao spoke directly.

After all, she was also living a life dependent on Jiang Han, she had already helped Lin Zhaodi by counting on her feelings for her and scheming against her last time, it was already good enough for her.

If she hadn’t helped her that day, she might not even be alive, she was just soft-hearted and didn’t want to see her end up like that, so she stepped out.

Hu Yao knew that what she did was wrong, and she also caused trouble for Jiang Han, so she helped Lin Zhaodi to pay back the money to Jiang Han quickly.

Lin Zhaodi said she was asking for her help, but in fact, to put it bluntly, she just wanted to ask for help from Jiang Han behind her.

She didn’t have such great ability to help her, she must have known this too.

People are all selfish and complex, there will definitely be selfishness. Hu Yao was grateful for her kindness after she recovered, she thought of her in everything, she really did treat her as a friend, after all, she also felt Lin Zhaodi’s kindness to her, so even though she knew her initial intentions were selfish, she understood and sympathized.

But now Hu Yao is more clearly feel that Lin Zhaodi just wanted to take advantage of me.

Perhaps it was because after I recovered, I had someone like Jiang Xiaochao, warm and caring, by my side, and even Jiang Han, who was so fierce, was actually very tolerant of me, I didn’t want to think too badly of human nature.

Lin Zhaodi clearly heard me say that I would help her and that Jiang Han would deal with her and beat her up, but she still wanted me to speak up and take that risk! She was only thinking of herself!

This time too, I had already helped her last time, and she got together with Xiaoya’s father as she wished. Li Zhuangzhi was a bad person, but her actions still had many flaws. In such a controversial situation, she should have been more low-key.

But she didn’t. Instead, she acted like a different person, constantly provoking and mocking Li Zhen and other aunts and grandmothers who had spoken ill of her before. Seeing that they thought Jiang Han was backing her up, they were a little more tolerant of her, and she became even more arrogant.

“Don’t come find me again.”
