Chapter 58: Zhao Sihai’s Scheme

Zhao Dani has now completely severed ties with the Liu family and will never go back.

So, for the sake of her precious son, she will definitely not be as submissive as before.

But what kind of person is Zhao’s mother?

Daughters are meant to be sold for money and dowry. Moreover, Zhao Dani is already married.

Now, she has two more burdens. This is like taking things from her third son. She will naturally not agree.

But Zhao’s mother is still in the police station. When she comes out, Zhao Dani will probably have already established herself in the family.

Then, the two of them will inevitably clash.

Plus, there’s Zhao Xiaohui, who is always thinking about how to benefit herself.

It’s easy to imagine how lively things will be in the future.

No wonder Zhao Sihai confidently told her not to worry about Zhao’s mother coming to cause trouble.

Zhao’s mother is a person who can be ruthless to anyone, including herself, except for her third son.

Zhao Dani and her three children threaten her third son’s interests. She will definitely not tolerate them.

But Zhao Dani, for the sake of her son, will definitely not back down.

Zhao Xiaohui, who wants to watch the tigers fight, will inevitably stir up trouble. It’s possible that both sides will do something terrible.

No, it’s absolutely possible.

“You want to send… her back in?”

The “her” naturally refers to Zhao’s mother.

“No.” She shook her head, changing her mind.

If Zhao’s mother really causes a big incident and ends up in jail, Zhao Sihai will also be affected.

She didn’t think he wouldn’t have considered this.

Sure enough, Zhao Sihai also shook his head.

She turned to look at him, waiting for his answer.

But Zhao Sihai leaned over and whispered a completely unexpected, yet seemingly logical answer in her ear.

Her eyes widened slightly, and she turned her head in surprise, “You…”

But Zhao Sihai covered her lips with his hand, and his low voice echoed in her ear again.

“So, you don’t have to worry about them anymore.”

She pursed her lips, her expression a little complicated, “Is that so?”

Zhao Sihai showed a confident smile, “If nothing unexpected happens, it should be fine.”

She stared at his smile, silent for a while, then suddenly took a deep breath.

“I suddenly hope she comes back sooner.”

Zhao Sihai just smiled, and then they stopped talking about this topic and turned to talk about the textile factory.

As they were talking, Zhao Sihai suddenly asked, “Did something happen between you and your little sister?”

Bai Ruojiao paused, then looked at him, “Why do you ask?”

Although the pause was brief, it didn’t escape Zhao Sihai’s observant eyes.

He frowned, remembering how Zhao Xiaohui looked terrified when he mentioned Bai Ruojiao while delivering breakfast this morning.

Looking at his wife’s expression now, he was certain that something had happened between them.

And in just a few seconds, he had already deduced a possibility.

“Is it related to yesterday’s scandal? Did she do something to you?”

Bai Ruojiao glanced at him, feeling like there was no need to hide it anymore.

If he couldn’t accept her coldness…

She pursed her lips and then told him about yesterday’s events.

After listening to the whole story, the vegetable leaves in Zhao Sihai’s hand were crushed. A storm gathered in his eyes.

Bai Ruojiao saw the blue veins bulging on his neck, his whole body filled with killing intent. She suddenly stood up and was about to walk out.

“Hai ge!” Afraid that he would impulsively do something, Bai Ruojiao quickly stepped forward and grabbed him.

She gently stroked his neck and softly persuaded him, “It’s all over now. I told you, I have ways to protect myself.”

She felt that his whole body was still tense, his eyes bloodshot. She could only continue to coax him.

“Besides, it’s good this way. I believe they won’t dare to target me again for a while.”

Zhao Sihai looked down at her, his fists clenched tightly, his chest heaving, and his back teeth grinding.

At this moment, he didn’t want to care about any plans. He just wanted to eliminate everyone who was harmful to her.

But when he met her worried gaze, his reason gradually returned.

After a long while, he finally calmed his breathing.

He took a deep breath, put his arms around her head, and kissed her forehead with a sense of fear.

“Sorry, I was too arrogant.”

He was sure that Zhao Xiaohui wouldn’t dare to trouble Bai Ruojiao for a while, but he overlooked other external factors.

Thinking about how close she was to getting hurt, he wanted to punch himself.

He had always boasted that she shouldn’t do anything herself and let him handle it.

Now, he had been slapped hard.

He couldn’t imagine what would have happened if Bai Ruojiao hadn’t had those abilities this time. Would she have fallen for it?

“I’m sorry.” He apologized in a hoarse voice, raised his hand, and slapped himself hard.

Bai Ruojiao was startled by his sudden slap. She quickly reached out and grabbed his hand.

“What are you doing? This has nothing to do with you!”

Zhao Sihai closed his eyes in regret, “I’ve boasted again.”

He opened his eyes, his eyes full of self-blame, “I didn’t protect you.”

Bai Ruojiao heard this and felt a mix of emotions. She didn’t know whether to be touched or angry.

She helplessly pulled her hand away from his and then said seriously, “You didn’t protect me well. That’s your fault, but it’s not entirely your responsibility. I’m a person, not something you can hide or carry around with you. I need to be responsible for myself too.

If you’re blaming yourself for miscalculating, then I also need to be responsible for taking risks alone. After all, I already knew something was wrong, but I still took the risk.”

Zhao Sihai’s brow furrowed.

Bai Ruojiao sighed and reached out to rub his brow.

“Alright, stop talking about who’s responsible. We’re human, not gods. There are always unexpected things that happen in life. All we can do is rely on each other and get through every difficulty together.”

Zhao Sihai pursed his lips tightly.

Bai Ruojiao hugged him and patted his back, “Alright, it’s all over now. Just think of it as a gust of wind. Don’t think about it too much. You’ll only make yourself sick and please others.”

Zhao Sihai hugged her back tightly and softly replied, “Okay.”

But the killing intent in his eyes didn’t diminish at all.

Originally, he just wanted to sever ties. Now, it seemed like he should eliminate the threat completely.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, “I’ll rent a house in the county first, and we’ll move together.”

Bai Ruojiao knew he was really scared. He wouldn’t be at ease if she didn’t agree.

The two of them had already planned to rent a house in the county when he settled down. Now, they were just doing it earlier.

So, she agreed without hesitation.

Zhao Sihai was finally relieved and finally smiled.

The next day, Zhao Sihai went to the factory. He had just registered when he was called to the factory director’s office.

As soon as he entered the office, he saw Factory Director Liu sitting at the table with the factory director.

Seeing him, before Factory Director Xu could speak, Factory Director Liu stood up with a smile on his face. He walked over and pulled Zhao Sihai into the room to sit down.

“Zhao Zhi, the notebook you brought yesterday, was it really all done by Zhao Zhi alone? Did she come up with those ideas herself?”

Seeing Factory Director Liu’s excited and expectant look, Zhao Sihai knew that his wife’s matter was probably settled.
