1297 I Want to Make You Stay 175 (1/2)
”Madam, you won't be able to fall asleep if you drink tea at night. You shouldn't drink anymore.”
”I can sleep fine even if I drink tea.” Old Mrs. Donggong sighed. ”Where has this old fellow gone that he isn't back yet?”
”He should be back soon. Madam, do you want to rest first?”
”I can't sleep. I'll wait for him to come back first.”
After she had drunk half a cup of tea, Old Mr. Donggong was back.
Seeing him return, the servants automatically went out.
”Old Lady, guess where I've been?”
”I'm not guessing.”
”Oh seriously, just make a guess.”
Old Mrs. Donggong hit the nail on the head instantly. ”You went to see our eldest son, right?”
”Aiya, you're still smart, after all.”
”What did the police station say?”
”They said we should just let this incident go because, if that woman posts the video online, it'll be detrimental to the reputation of our family.”
Old Mrs. Donggong sneered, ”That woman really emerged out of nowhere. I've checked for so long and still couldn't find her. From how I see it, we should hurry and kidnap the two of them, lest they come up with other tricks.”
”Didn't you see today how that woman isn't a simple one? It's right to think of a way, but that's not realistic at all.”
”How is it unrealistic? They need to drink water, right? We can do something to their water tank and secretly tell the other households that the water can't be used for a few days. We'll drug the water, then.”
”Let's talk about this tomorrow.” Old Mr. Donggong headed to the room to sleep.
An Xiaoning placed the oilcloth and tile back before following the elderly couple along the roof of the room they slept in.
When the two sat on the bed, the Old Madam couldn't help but say, ”You saw it today too. He can't be tamed now that he's all grown up, and he's very much aware that we were going to sacrifice him previously. So, don't let him off easily just because he's part of the Donggong family.”
”Alright, alright. I heard from our son that there's no news from S Nation at all. Why isn't there anything from that An Xiaoning if she's back home?”
”She probably thought that that was really just an earthquake, or that our Donggong family is no pushover, so she doesn't want to come over and die in our hands.”
”You're overthinking it, I don't think that's the case.” The Old Master said in a frustrated manner, ”Old Lady, you should read the news more when you're free to have a better understanding of things, okay? You think that she'll actually be afraid of us? This An Xiaoning's mother is now the First Lady of S Nation while her man is the leader of S Nation's largest conglomerate. How could she possibly be afraid of us? She's probably plotting on how to take revenge on us, right? I've long thought that planning an accident to kill them previously wasn't a good idea, but you insisted on going ahead with it.”
”Yes, yes, yes. It's all my fault. Happy?”
”Look at yourself, Old Lady. Getting angry just like that as you speak.”
”If we hadn't taken the opportunity to try to kill them previously, who could guarantee what she would have done to our family? I'm afraid that she'll do something crazy. We should have just killed Lianzhi previously. All these troubles are created by him.”
The Old Master did not speak and simply arranged the pillow properly before lying down. After a moment, he muttered, ”These… must really be the sins our ancestors committed that we now have to suffer for.”
”Alright, don't talk about that anymore. Today, Miaomiao chose Fifteen.”
”Really?”
”Yes, it's true. Looks like this marriage with the Jin family will still take place.”
”That's good. I really didn't think that that young brat would be so scheming. She even knew to bring a surveillance camera to our house.”
