In order to get a hukou, I got married to a billionaire
Chapter 357 What are you afraid of?
Ning Lan was a woman, so how could she beat Aunt Zhao who was with her husband? If the old neighbors behind hadn't heard the noise and came down to help, Aunt Zhao and her husband would have really demolished the house.
Ning Xi looked at the clothes and pots and pans scattered all over the floor and bent down to pick them up.
Aunt Wu, who had talked to Ning Xi last time, couldn't help but ask her, "Ning Xi, is Mrs. Zhao really paralyzed? Was Zhao Haicheng also burned to death?"
They didn't know this before.
They heard something about it last time, but they didn't know exactly what happened. Anyway, Ning Lan couldn't see anything at all.
Although everyone knew that she had been severely bullied by the Zhao family over the years, it was still her husband and her in-laws. Now that her husband was dead and her mother-in-law was paralyzed, she was in a hurry to sell the house and leave, which made others feel a little resentful.
No wonder Aunt Zhao came to visit.
Ning Xi didn't know what her neighbors were thinking, so when she heard her ask this, she just nodded.
Aunt Wu sighed again and said nothing more.
Ning Xi picked up the things outside the door and went into the house.
The room was also in a mess, everything that could be smashed was broken. Ning Lan, with half of her face swollen, sat on the sofa with a dull expression, while Sister Ma was still trying to persuade her.
Seeing Ning Xi coming in, Sister Ma said again: "Ning Lan, Ning Xi is such a good child, how can you break off your relationship with her? You..."
Sister Ma was still talking, but Ning Lan didn't hear a word. When she saw Ning Xi coming in, her eyes were no longer empty, but a hint of hatred appeared. "Is it you? Did you tell the Zhao family? You don't want me to have an easy life, do you?"
"Oh Ning Lan, what are you doing?" Seeing her like this, Sister Ma hurriedly said, "How can you blame Ning Xi? What does this have to do with Ning Xi?"
But Ning Lan didn't listen to what she said at all, just stared at Ning Xi with hatred.
Sister Ma was so angry that she felt Ning Lan was becoming more and more confused.
Ning Xi's reaction was very calm, and she only said, "No."
"Do you think I will believe it?" Ning Lan sneered.
Ning Xi was too lazy to explain, "If you insist on thinking this way, then think this way."
Sister Ma couldn't stand it any longer, so she pulled Ning Lan and said, "Ning Lan, what are you doing? Xiao Xi is such a filial child. If she couldn't bear to see you doing well, why would she come to see you?
Besides, the news of you selling the house has spread throughout the community. Wouldn’t the Zhao family know it as soon as they asked? Why would Xiaoxi have to tell them? "
"Has it spread?" Ning Lan then looked at Sister Ma, as if she had not expected this to happen.
"Of course!" Sister Ma couldn't help rolling her eyes. There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world, and it's just selling a house. Is there any need for her to hide it like this?
Ning Lan opened her mouth, then looked at Ning Xi suspiciously. In the end, she didn't say anything else.
Sister Ma was very angry. She looked at the two of them and didn't know what to say. In the end, she tried to persuade them a few more times and then left.
Ning Xi didn't say anything to Ning Lan, but just turned around and started cleaning up again.
Ning Lan watched her packing up and said, "You can go now. I've said it before, we'll go our separate ways from now on. Since we've signed the severance agreement, just consider this relationship gone."
Ning Xi paused in her packing and looked at her again.
That straight gaze made Ning Lan feel guilty, and she was afraid that she would ask something.
So she turned around and hid from her sight.
She comforted herself in her heart that things would be done soon, and then she and her daughter would run away and completely get rid of these people and these things.
"Is it because of my father?" Ning Xi suddenly spoke.
Ning Lan subconsciously froze her body, and her eyes flickered uncontrollably.
Although Ning Xi couldn't see her facial expression, she knew that she was right from her frozen body.
Then he continued: "Do you know about my father? Where did he go? Why did he disappear?"
She can leave, but today, she must get these things clear.
Ning Lan's heart was pounding, she pinched her palm tightly, and then she managed to calm down and said, "I said, I'm not familiar with your father!"
"Really?" Ning Xi's eyes were sharp.
"What's with that expression on your face? Can I still be close to my brother-in-law? Then who am I?"
"Aunt, you know, that's not what I meant."
Ning Xi was not so easy to fool. All the previous signs showed that she knew about her father's affairs, and now there was what Aunt Zhao said.
So, she must get to the bottom of it today.
"Then what do you mean? Okay, get out of here! I don't want to see you, go away!" Ning Lan became impatient and wanted to kick her out.
But Ning Xi didn't move. Instead, she looked at her impatient look and said, "Aunt, if you are not familiar with my father, why are you so nervous? What are you afraid of?"
What are you afraid of...
Ning Lan's eyes trembled slightly for a moment, and the action of pushing her froze again, but she continued: "What can I be afraid of? How could I know about your father's affairs? Don't forget, I was in H City when your father disappeared!"
"Really?" She looked straight at her.
"Of course!" Ning Lan subconsciously pinched her own palms, forcing herself to look at her. As long as she didn't say anything, no one would know those things!
"So what did Aunt Zhao say just now?"
"What do you mean? The Zhao family's words cannot be trusted. Do you realize this now?"
"Then why did you give her money?"
"that is because……"
"Why? Aunt, why?"
Ning Xi continued to ask, and even had a thought in her mind: did she know the reason for her father's disappearance from the beginning?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, many details that she had previously overlooked became clear and reasonable.
She said she was not familiar with her father, but her sister said that her aunt suddenly wanted to marry Zhao Haicheng a year before their father left. At that time, her parents had been together for five or six years. As the sister-in-law, how could she not be familiar with her father?
N City in S Province is thousands of miles away from H City. How could she have thought of marrying Zhao Haicheng and following him here?
Later, when Zhao Haicheng and the Zhao family treated her so badly, why did she refuse to divorce?
The most important thing is, where did her hatred for her father come from when she was unconscious?
All of this, combined with what Aunt Zhao said just now...
Ning Lan's heart was pounding as she looked at her staring gaze. In particular, she felt that Ning Xi at this moment looked very much like that scary man!
Ning Lan's face looked very bad. She took two steps back, then suddenly hugged her head and began to tear her hair: "I don't know! I don't know! I don't know anything!"
Ning Xi was stunned, watching her suddenly squat on the ground, tearing and beating herself frantically.
