Chapter 112: Wang Yumeng Taken Away

Shen Chuning was crying so hard that Zhou Yubai didn’t dare put her on the back seat of the bicycle, instead placing her on the front crossbar.

As he rode home, he planned to scold her after she finished crying.

This little rabbit’s courage was growing.

She dared to send a telegram to his superiors to apply for a divorce without his knowledge.

And she was quite generous, writing a two-hundred-plus-word divorce application, costing over 14 kuai, half a month’s salary.

Although he knew she wanted a divorce to avoid implicating him, he still felt uneasy.

Did this little rabbit wife think he was irresponsible and incapable?

Zhou Yubai was thinking when he felt the little head resting on his chest become heavier, the crying less intense, only occasional sobs.

He looked down and saw his wife asleep on his chest.

Long eyelashes were still wet with tears, trembling slightly like butterfly wings, her fair face still tear-stained, looking so pitiful.

At that moment, his heart melted.

Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, guilt surged.

She was so timid, how scared she must have been these two days.

When she needed him most, he wasn’t there.

She didn’t blame him, she even considered his career, unwilling for him to be affected.

He had just been blaming her for wanting a divorce.

His guilt deepened.

He couldn’t help but gently kiss away the tears on her eyelashes and face.

When Zhou Yubai rode his bicycle back to the village, Wang Yumeng had just been taken away.

There was no farm work, and a big incident had happened, villagers gathered at the village entrance to discuss and speculate.

“Tsk, Wang Yumeng was taken away too, is she a spy?”

“I think even if Wang Yumeng isn’t a spy, she’s involved, look how close she’s been to Shen Zhengliang!”

“Maybe she’s the leader, Shen Zhengliang was recruited by her! Otherwise, when Mr. Shen joined the army and Chuning married Zhou Yubai, Shen Zhengliang passed the political review.

Why did he suddenly become a spy? It must be because he got together with Wang Yumeng and was instigated by her.”

…

If Shen Chuning were awake, she would give a thumbs-up to the villager who made this guess.

He had analyzed most of the truth.

Seeing Zhou Yubai riding his bicycle back with Shen Chuning, people wanted to ask about the situation.

But Zhou Yubai was known for his cold demeanor, even the elders were a little afraid of his face.

After some hesitation, no one dared to ask Zhou Yubai about such potentially sensitive matters.

When Zhou Yubai got home, Lin Shulan was tidying up the house.

Last night, Shen Chuning had simply packed her things, planning to move out once the divorce was approved.

Lin Shulan sighed while tidying up.

Although Shen Chuning had only been her daughter-in-law for a few months, compared to her other two daughters-in-law, she really treated Shen Chuning like her own daughter.

But who would have thought…

Lin Shulan was sighing when she heard the sound of a bicycle outside, she quickly went out.

She saw Zhou Yubai carrying Shen Chuning into the house.

Lin Shulan was slightly stunned, quickly coming forward, “Third Son, what happened to Ningning?”

Countless bad possibilities flashed through her mind.

Her face turned pale, and sweat broke out on her forehead.

“Nothing, she’s asleep.” Zhou Yubai simply replied.

Lin Shulan breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest, “It’s good, it’s good.”

“By the way, Third Son, why did you come back with Ningning? Didn’t Ningning go to the county…” Lin Shulan hesitated, feeling it inappropriate to tell her son about Shen Chuning’s divorce application, she stopped.

But Zhou Yubai was very perceptive, “Mother, you know Ningning went to file for divorce?”

Under Zhou Yubai’s cold gaze, Lin Shulan, as a mother, was also a little intimidated.

She didn’t dare look at Zhou Yubai’s eyes, lowering her head, she nodded slightly, “I know. Didn’t Ningning analyze that if Second Brother Shen was wrongly accused of being a spy, it would affect your career?

Mother thought it would be better for you to divorce temporarily, if Second Brother Shen is fine, we’ll remarry Ningning. If…”

Zhou Yubai’s brows furrowed even more.

He knew why his little rabbit was suddenly so bold, it was his mother’s support.

He said sternly, “Mother, no matter the reason, I won’t divorce her.

Don’t support her doing this again.”

Lin Shulan nodded, “Mother understands.”

“Actually, Mother doesn’t want you to divorce, divorce is embarrassing!” Lin Shulan wanted to ask about Shen Zhengliang, after all, another person was taken away from the village, Wang Yumeng, who was close to Shen Zhengliang.

She was very anxious.

Before she could ask, her son gave her the boot, “Mother, go back, let my wife sleep.”

Lin Shulan looked at Shen Chuning, who was sleeping soundly, Shen Chuning’s fair skin made her dark circles even more obvious.

She felt heartache, nodding, “Okay, Mother will go back. Come over for dinner when Ningning wakes up.”

Zhou Yubai nodded slightly in agreement.

As soon as Lin Shulan left, he sat by the bed, his gaze fixed on Shen Chuning’s fair face…
