Chapter 207: What's Next
Tears welled up all of a sudden, Zhuang Yan is my heaven, my earth, and my reliance in this life, it is precisely because I firmly believe that to this day, so I definitely can't bear that he will really cheat.
I bit my lower lip and cried for a while, when I heard the door open.
I thought it was Zhuang Yan who was back, and subconsciously stuffed the photo into a drawer and lay down on the bed to fake sleep.
The door soon opened, and I smelled the scent of a woman, and my heart stopped beating and tears welled up again.
Before I had time to grieve, Zhuang Xiaoting's voice suddenly burst into my ears: "Cut, I said that I believe my brother, and I still cry like this when I sleep, how capable I am when you are." ā
She mumbled as she helped me pull up the quilt, tuck it up, and gently turn off the light when I went out.
A warm little flame jumped in my heart, and I knew that she was a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she didn't like me on the surface, but she was actually slowly accepting me in her heart. I don't expect her to be very close to me, and it's satisfying to be able to do that.
But this little flame was extinguished by the discomfort in my heart before it could grow stronger, and I didn't turn on the light, but sat up and stared at the darkness in front of me for a long time.
Whether or not this happens, crying is the stupidest way to go.
The nightmare I had just told me of the serious consequences that crying can have, and I clutched my heart and felt my panicked heartbeat, unable to calm down for a long time.
I still overestimated myself, I thought that I would always be calm in terms of feelings, after all, we even got the certificate.
Sweat flowed down my forehead from time to time, and I couldn't help but shudder at the thought of that dream. If Zhuang Xiaoting hadn't come to help me cover the quilt just now, I might have been in a trance for a long time before I dared to believe that it was really just a dream.
I think I'll have to deal with this sensibly, but my mind is empty, and the more I try to push myself to think of a solution, the more chaotic my mind becomes.
In the dark, I sat in bed for a whole hour.
It was a very long hour, as if a snail was crawling in my heart, and only a second had passed after crawling around, and I was so anxious that I wanted to put my hand in it and scratch my heart and lungs.
I was able to calm down and think in the second half hour, and I have always given Zhuang Yan the greatest trust. I didn't like anyone else of the opposite sex except him, because I didn't have the heart to focus on such a luxury as falling in love before.
In fact, I don't know if it takes skills to get along with husband and wife, and I have always relied on feelings to get along. But emotions are sometimes strong and indomitable, and sometimes they are as fragile as bubbles, which may shatter at the slightest touch.
I always thought that neither of us would change, but I suddenly remembered Zhuang Yan's parents. They also fell in love with each other at the beginning, and the two suffered together, but after life got better, the relationship between them slowly changed.
At this moment, I don't dare to believe that Zhuang Yan and I will love each other forever, because people will change.
Zhuang Xiaoting is telling the truth, even if Zhuang Yan can clean himself, but there are too many women who pounce on him, can he really sit still without messing up? People will stumble, horses will stumble, I haven't lived a married life with him for so long since I was pregnant, maybe, he may really accidentally lose his foot.
I pulled out the number of the person who sent the photo and called again.
A normal person sleeps soundly at three o'clock in the morning, but this person actually answers the phone quickly.
I cried for so long that I still have a thick nasal voice: "Tell me, what is the purpose of showing me these pictures? Why should I give you money?" ā
I didn't call him to be taken advantage of, I wanted to figure out what this person's purpose was before Zhuang Yan explained it to me, and I knew it was very difficult to look at the tricky shooting angles in the photos.
I have to say that after resting at home for a long time, my already unclever way of chatting has become even more unsophisticated.
The other party seemed to be stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed in a low voice: "I can tell you who that woman is and where she is, don't you want to know?"
Is it really for money? Logically it seems a little wrong.
Maybe because I was silent for a long time, the other party began to lobby me: "You see that you haven't slept until now, which means that you also know that your man has a problem, and this matter is not a day or two." If you want to continue living with your man, you have to solve these three, if you want to divorce, you can also divide more family property with more evidence in hand, right?"
When he said this, he seemed to be really reasonable. But the more he said, the more strange I felt.
However, my emotions also slowly calmed down, the previous discomfort was equivalent to the internal contradiction between me and Zhuang Yan, and now the negotiation with this person is naturally an external contradiction. Although you must first settle inside, I don't want to be led by the nose by a stranger I have never met.
With these photos, I can ask Jiang Yang to help me check, Jiang Yang is not more reliable than a stranger? Although I am not sure if Jiang Yang will be on my side, Jiang Yang is more reliable than a stranger anyway.
But I couldn't be so calm, so I sniffed and pretended to be distressed, and asked him how much money he wanted: "I don't have much savings, how much do you need to help me?"
As a result, I calmed down, but the other party hesitated: "Ten ...... 100,000, how are you going to give it?"
"100,000 thousand, what about your blackmail!" I hung up the phone in a fit of rage, but he didn't call back, which struck me as particularly strange.
Ordinary people will definitely come to me and bargain with me when they encounter this kind of transaction.
My mind was so chaotic that I didn't want to talk to him anymore, so I put down the phone and fell asleep. Zhuang Yan in the dream is right, raising a baby at home is not for me to be cranky, I have to be mentally healthy to see what the blackmailer wants to do.
I was woken up by Zhuang Xiaoting, the curtains were opened by her, and the sunlight was so good that it stinged my eyes.
She sat down uncomfortably on the edge of the bed and touched my stomach: "Get up and eat, what should I do if my nephew is hungry? ā
As soon as I touched my eyes, it was really swollen.
Silently get up, wash, change clothes, eat.
Because I wasn't in the mood, I didn't say a word to Zhuang Xiaoting. This suffocates her, who usually disdains to take care of me, but today she has no words to talk to me, asking me how to feed the goldfish for a while, and helping me water the flowers for a while.
"Xiaoting, did you tell your brother about the photo?"
When she saw me speak, there was a flash of joy in her eyes: "I didn't say it, what's wrong?" I didn't bother to tell him, he is now seizing the opportunity to educate me, and he is annoyed. Before I could answer, she awkwardly probed, "IāI'll tell him tonight, I want to see who that mean woman is." ā
"Can you just not tell him yet?"
She immediately became vigilant, and asked me what I wanted to do.
"This kind of thing hurts my feelings when I say it, I want to investigate it myself, if it's a misunderstanding, then I don't need to mention it at all. ā
Zhuang Xiaoting pursed her lips disdainfully, pointed to my stomach and began to sneer again: "Just like you, how are you going to investigate? I'm about to give birth, what are you trying to do." Tian Tian knows a lot of people who know how to be good at computers, and they said, the photos can be so fake that they are real, you give me two, and I'll find a few buddies to see if it's real. ā
What she was talking about just now was that she played out with Tian Tian and them late at night last night, and then watched a movie at zero o'clock. This is a bit of a report to me, probably because I am afraid that I will tell Zhuang Yan that she will not go home in the middle of the night.
I picked two of each of the two envelopes and gave them to her, and she immediately smiled and looked at the door opposite.
Feeling wilted, I took out my phone to read the message Zhuang Yan sent me. If he doesn't return home at night and doesn't report the reason, who is this who makes him like this?
After thinking about it, I still blame me, he used to report his whereabouts in great detail, and I slowly made him change this habit. If he doesn't come back now, he will concisely explain the reason to me on the phone, and there have been cases in the past where he sent messages saying that he couldn't come back, but this time it made me extra sensitive, thinking about the trouble caused by those photos and that dream.
Zhuang Yan just compromised with Uncle Jiang, it stands to reason that it is normal for something to happen now, but I can't keep my sanity on these photos.
I called Bao Yuanyuan, and she said that Uncle Jiang and her father and son would not let her go to work, and she was now idle at home every day: "Xixi, I'm getting moldy, how can you stay at home? You're about to give birth, aren't you? My father-in-law is going to go out in two days, and I'll go to see you then." ā
Yuanyuan is now the daughter-in-law of the Zhuang family, so I can't speak ill of Uncle Jiang unscrupulously in front of her, otherwise she will be caught in the middle.
"Good. Yuanyuan, when Brother Jiang comes over, I want to ask him for help with something. ā
Bao Yuanyuan paused: "Hey, Xixi, when did you become so angry? You called his brother for several years, shouldn't you help a little?"
"Yuanyuan," in addition to Zhuang Yan, the one who made me feel the most dependent psychologically was Bao Yuanyuan, so as soon as she said heartwarming words, I suddenly wanted to confide, "Do you say that men are easy to change their minds?"
Bao Yuanyuan suddenly restrained her happiness, and asked me very heavily if something had happened: "Your man has changed his mind? Do you want Jiang Yang to do a favor with this?"
"It's nothing, let's talk about it when you guys come. Yuanyuan, just now when I didn't say anything, don't tell Brother Jiang for the time being. "She's not stupid, she definitely understands what I mean, I don't want to startle the snake.
When Zhuang Xiaoting came back that afternoon, she brought me very bad news, and after the identification of Tian Tian's friends, the photo was real.
I'm disappointed, but I'm not as emotionally uncontrollable as I used to be.
It's ridiculous that the person who sent the photo saw that I had stopped calling him, and actually took the initiative to call me and say that he wanted to reduce the price.
I deliberately bargained with him for a while, and finally sold it for 10,000 yuan. And he was also very "kind" and said that he wanted to help me find more evidence of Zhuang Yan's cheating, but I had to prepare two copies of Zhuang Yan's ID card for him, saying that he needed an ID card to check Zhuang Yan's call records, opening records and other information.
I almost laughed out loud, regardless of whether Zhuang Yan cheated or not, the person who sent the photo was slowly showing his feet. After the money, start asking for a copy of the ID card, what is the next step?
