Chapter 144: Uncle Zhong's Resignation

Lin Lin is not someone who is easy to fool. She won't spread her wings until she sees a rabbit, and she won't talk until she sees money.

Lin Lin looked at Chu Ci with a smile: "If you have money, it's easy to talk. Five million, I want cash."

Chu Ci was very angry, and even more disappointed.

She initially had a fantasy that maybe Lin Lin was being coerced and had no choice but to betray her, but the facts proved that Lin Lin was just trying to satisfy her desires.

The desire is hard to satisfy. If Lin Lin threatens her once today, she will be threatened a second time, or even countless times.

Chu Ci secretly took a few breaths and stared at Lin Lin coldly: "I can't come up with so much cash for a while. Lin Lin, if you still have some conscience, tell me who is the person who instigated you behind the scenes. I promise you

I won’t go back on my business, here is twenty thousand yuan, and the rest will be given to you tomorrow.”

Chu Ci took out 20,000 yuan in cash from her bag, which was all the money she had.

Lin Lin's eyes lit up when she saw the money. Even though her hand was broken, she couldn't wait to reach out and take the money.

"For the sake of 20,000 yuan, I can give you a little clue. The man is very tall. I remember that his license plate seems to have two 8s. He is a black car. That's all for the time being." Lin Lin said: "Twenty thousand yuan."

You won’t suffer any loss if you buy so much information for just one block.”

"You..." Chu Ci gritted his teeth and then sneered: "Lin Lin, being too greedy will only accelerate yourself into a desperate situation, and you will regret it."

Lin Lin has money, so she doesn't care if she doesn't regret it in the future.

"I only know that except for money, no one can be trusted in this world."

"Just take care of yourself."

Chu Ci said no more, dropped these words and left.

Lin Lin's voice came from behind: "Remember to bring the remaining money tomorrow."

Chu Ci went downstairs but did not leave immediately. She sat in the car for a while, feeling depressed. She took out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

Recently, her addiction to smoking has become more and more intense, and she relies on smoking and drinking to survive in the dead of night.

Chu Ci leaned against the car seat, and the cigarette on his fingertips slowly burned out. When the wind blew, the ashes flew away with the wind, and everything disappeared.

How much she thought about human pain was like the cigarette in her hand, it disappeared after burning out.

Chu Ci smiled wryly and tugged at the corner of her mouth. The cigarette in her hand had been extinguished. She threw away the cigarette butt, started the car, and was about to leave when she saw a familiar figure flash past her eyes.

Chu Ci thought he was dazzled. How could Ruan Laosi appear in the hospital so late?

Chu Ci didn't get out of the car and follow him. The hospital was so big that if he followed him, he wouldn't be able to find anyone.

Chu Ci returned to Ruan's house with doubts. As soon as he parked the car, Uncle Zhong came over in a hurry: "Second Miss, you are finally back."

"Uncle Zhong, what's wrong? What happened?" Chu Ci wondered. He hadn't seen Uncle Zhong look so panicked for a long time.

"You'd better go and see it with your own eyes."

Chu Ci frowned, becoming even more confused. She walked in, but before she could see clearly, a figure suddenly rushed towards her and hugged her leg.

"Mother."

Chu Ci's whole body was petrified by the immature childish voice.

She looked down at Xiaoye who was hugging her, feeling as if she was dreaming.

That call "Mother" almost made her burst into tears.

Why is Xiaoye here?

Just when I thought this, I heard Uncle Zhong say: "Mr. Tang sent Master Sun here and left."

Sent by Tang Qing?

What is the purpose?

In order to prevent mother and son from recognizing each other, Tang Qing even dared to change the paternity test. Why did he send someone here again?

Chu Ci's mind was full of doubts, but these doubts were nothing in front of Xiao Ye. She hugged Xiao Ye excitedly, her voice trembling with excitement: "Xiao, Xiaoye, what did you call me just now? Can you call me again?"

"Mother."

Xiaoye shouted again obediently, and her tender and soft voice made Chu Ci's heart melt.

"Xiao Ye, mother's precious son." Chu Ci was so excited that he even kissed Xiao Ye's cheek several times. She had been waiting for this day for nearly two years.

From the time the child was born to the present, she has held her son only a handful of times, never given him a sip of milk, has not participated in Xiao Ye's growth, and has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.

She owes this child so much.

"Mom, I'm crying." Xiao Ye stretched out her tender hand and wiped Chu Ci's tears in a sensible way. This move made Chu Ci shed more tears.

"Xiaoye, mom is sorry for you, I'm sorry."

Chu Ci held Xiao Ye for a long time before she calmed down. She was reluctant to let go and kept holding Xiao Ye.

Maybe it was the relationship between mother and son. Xiao Ye didn't recognize her as a child, and she was also very clingy to Chu Ci. She hugged Chu Ci's neck with her little hands, and her well-behaved and sensible look touched Chu Ci's softest place, almost making her cry again.

"Uncle Zhong, did Tang Qing say anything when he sent the child?"

"As I said, Mr. Tang said that the child should be raised here for a few days, and he would pick it up in a few days."

"How many days will it take to pick him up?" Chu Ci murmured: "What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? I'm afraid Xiaoye's presence will delay his date with the beauties."

Chu Ci's tone was sour, filled with jealousy and anger.

Uncle Zhong smiled: "Second Miss, you don't want to go back to the Tang family. Why are you jealous?"

"Whoever is jealous, I'm not." Chu Ci hugged Xiaoye tightly: "He can associate with whoever he likes. I'm not his, and I can't care about him."

Uncle Zhong pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Mr. Tang is obviously trying to provoke the general. Seeing that the second lady is not falling for the trick, I sent Master Sun here. For the sake of the child, you can't be angry anymore."

"Who is angry with him?" Chu Ci said this, but in her heart she knew that she was somewhat angry with Tang Qing. Thinking of the people she saw in the hospital, she changed the subject: "Uncle Zhong, go back and check on Fourth Uncle Ruan."

What have you been doing recently? I seemed to have seen him in the hospital just now."

"Hospital? It's so late. Why is he going to the hospital?" Uncle Zhong muttered, "I'll go find out tomorrow."

Chu Ci was also very curious. Recently, Ruan Lao San and Ruan Lao Si were all ready to make a move, but their movements were not big, as if they were worrying about something.

"Uncle Zhong, it's too late. Go to bed early. I'll take Xiaoye to have a rest too."

Looking at the back of Chu Ci going up the stairs, Uncle Zhong hesitated to speak, but finally said out loud: "Second Miss, I have something I want to discuss with you."

Chu Ci paused: "Uncle Zhong, just tell me what you want."

Uncle Zhong seemed to be in a dilemma and said hesitantly: "Second Miss, I'm too old and can't do anything anymore. I want to go back to my hometown."

Hearing this, Chu Ci was very surprised.

"Uncle Zhong..."

This happened so suddenly that Chu Ci didn't know how to answer for a moment. Uncle Zhong was only sixty this year, and he was not incapable of doing anything. He suddenly asked to return to his hometown, which made her very embarrassed.

When Ruan Yulin was here, she personally promised to provide for Uncle Zhong in his old age. Now that Ruan Yulin is gone and Uncle Zhong is going back to his hometown, she is really the only one left in the entire Ruan family.

"Uncle Zhong, please stop thinking about it." Chu Ci pursed his lips and said, "The Ruan family needs you. My sister is no longer here. I will fulfill my sister's promise and treat you as my biological father and provide for you in your old age.

"

"Second Miss, I..." Uncle Zhong hesitated and said, "I'm old."

The words "I am old" are very heavy, and they are also the best excuse.

Chu Ci naturally knew that Uncle Zhong did not leave the Ruan family because he was really old, but that without Ruan Yulin, there was no point in him staying.

"...Okay." Chu Ci no longer pushed anyone into trouble: "Uncle Zhong, let me know when you are leaving, and I will see you off."

"Thank you, Miss Second."

Uncle Zhong smiled and thanked him. He watched Chu Ci go upstairs. He immediately turned around and went outside and quietly made a phone call.
