"But my precious grandson is gone, sigh."
Mother-in-law shook her head. She couldn't hide the sadness on her face. Her sadness was also transmitted to me.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, Mother-in-law was a little worried. She grabbed my hand and said earnestly, "My good son-in-law, Xiao Mei loves you so much. Don't fall in love with someone else because of this. Nowadays, medical science is very advanced. I asked the doctor, and he said that if you recover well, you can think of a way to have a test tube baby. Moreover, you're still young, and you're still in school. You don't need to hurry to have a child."
Although she said that, I could feel that Mother-in-law was purposely comforting me. She wanted to use this chance to calm me down. She didn't want me to have a change of heart. If that happened, her rich life would also disappear.
Moreover, while Mother-in-law was talking, she moved closer to me. I could feel the warmth of her chest from my elbow. If father-in-law saw us, what would he do? I hurriedly took two steps back to keep some distance from Mother-in-law.
Although she was an old woman, her skin was well maintained, and her body was still in shape. She looked like she was in her thirties. These excellent genes were all reflected in my sister-in-law's body.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry. I'm not that kind of person. No matter what happens to her, my love for her will never change," I said seriously. Mother-in-law heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's all that crazy criminal's fault." Mother-in-law was still frightened. Her face was full of hatred.
"I left just now to deal with this matter. The criminal has paid a terrible price." I couldn't help but explain.
Mother-in-law looked relieved when she heard that. Then, she asked cautiously, "My good son-in-law, was that criminal really sent by the Deputy Mayor?"
"More or less. If you've suffered a loss, you should remember it. You should be low-key. This time, you only scratched your arm. Maybe next time, you'll be the one lying on the bed."
I couldn't help but remind her. The fuse of this matter was indeed the Deputy Mayor. Otherwise, they wouldn't have acted so quickly.
Mother-in-law looked like a frosted eggplant. She nodded and began to complain. "If it weren't for my tricks, the criminal would have gotten away with it. It's her honor to have a good son-in-law like me. It's also my sister-in-law's great fortune."
I couldn't help but say that after experiencing this life and death separation, my mother-in-law had changed a lot. I didn't really like her snobbish attitude. Perhaps it was just as she said, I always saw people flaunting and competing with each other. As an insignificant person, I could only watch silently. Now that it was her family's turn to become a phoenix, it was inevitable that her ego would swell.
Moreover, I had shown my skills, and Mother-in-law was sincerely convinced. Not only did President Qian give me a villa, but even the Deputy Mayor also treated me with respect.
After chatting for a while, my father-in-law came back. He had packed some food for me. When I smelled the delicious aroma, my stomach grumbled. By the time we finished dinner, it was around 7: 00 PM. My parents looked tired. I asked them to go back and rest. I would be fine here.
After they left, only my sister-in-law and I were left in the room. Looking at her pale face, my heart tightened. I couldn't help but hold her hand. "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. It's all my fault. I made you suffer."
I suddenly saw two lines of tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes. However, she couldn't open her eyes. She could hear me, but she couldn't respond. She had lost a lot of blood, so she needed some time to recover.
Looking at her quietly, my heart was filled with tenderness. However, my phone suddenly vibrated, breaking the tranquility. It was an unfamiliar number. Instinctively, I hung up. Usually, people who knew my number were my acquaintances. I wouldn't pick up this kind of disturbing call.
After a while, my phone called again. I was surprised. Is Little Cherry looking for me?
After all, we didn't spend much time together today. I didn't want to disturb my sister-in-law, so I came to the corridor.
"Hey, who is it?" I was surprised.
"Cough, it's me, Liu Jie's father." A familiar male voice came from the other side of the phone. I was surprised. Liu Zhanpeng!
Why did he take the initiative to call me? I suddenly thought of something. Last time, I had told Liu Jie to tell Liu Zhanpeng that if he encountered any trouble that he couldn't solve, he could ask me for help.
Originally, I just said it casually. According to my understanding of him, he wouldn't come to me. However, God disposes. He still came to find me. When I recalled that Liu Zhanpeng had been rude to me in the restaurant, he thought that I was after his property. I was a little angry. That's why I didn't use a good tone when I called him.
"Oh, what's wrong?" I replied indifferently.
"Hey, Xiao Zhuang, I've noticed that Tu Fangfang isn't right. She has a close relationship with my company's shareholders. She often goes to big hotels to discuss business. I have a serious suspicion that she wants to usurp the company's position!" Liu Zhanpeng cleared his throat and said.
I was bewildered. If she was cheated, then she was cheated. How could he say it in such a fresh and refined way? Moreover, Liu Zhanpeng trusted Tu Fangfang a lot. He kept saying that Fangfang was a good person and acted like a helpless little bird, which awakened his second love.
Now, Zhanpeng's company was in danger. Tu Fangfang had a lot of shares. Liu Zhanpeng's position as the chairman could be taken away at any time. He was completely panicked. Even if he found out about Tu Fangfang's actions, he couldn't do anything.
The most important thing was that when Tu Fangfang was the general manager of the company, she was in charge of all kinds of things. There were a few old employees who went against her. Tu Fangfang was very cunning. She would lie on the pillow and distort the truth several times. She even framed others for messing around in the office. This made Liu Zhanpeng very angry. He fired a few core backbones. The company's old employees saw this and were bitterly disappointed.
Now that Liu Zhanpeng realized the severity of the problem, it was already too late for him to change his image. Once he went against Tu Fangfang, it would be like pulling a hair on one part and affecting the whole. Liu Zhanpeng was at a loss of what to do, so he thought of me.
Liu Zhanpeng had heard about all the major events that had taken place in Cloud City recently. Liu Zhanpeng was filled with endless remorse towards my sudden emergence as a new force. In fact, when he first learned about the life and death battle, he felt disdain towards it. If my head was separated from my body, Liu Jie would have completely given up on him. However, he hadn't expected that I would shine brilliantly in the Zhao Martial Arts Club. Even the famous Old Man Zhao had suffered a great loss.
Moreover, Liu Zhanpeng also got some news about what happened in the Xicheng District police station today. Because the Zhao Family deliberately concealed it, they exaggerated the conflict between me and Shangguan Jie. However, Chief Feng was not a vegetarian. He sent people to stir things up secretly. There were many versions of this matter, which made me sound like a god. Anyway, many people knew that the commander-in-chief named me to protect me. This was an indisputable fact.
