1173. Chapter 1173 No need to rely on others anymore [1174]
Lin Zhao hesitated slightly, even though he was angry again, but for the sake of money, he could only keep his mouth shut.
Mu Liting looked at Liang Xinrou and whispered: "This money is enough for you and your mother to live a better life, so you don't need to rely on others anymore!"
Liang Xinrou shook her head and stuffed the check back to Mu Liting, "This is too much money, I can't do it!"
Mu Liting's eyes darkened, "Xinrou, you are still as stubborn as before. We are friends. I just want to help you. Take..."
After saying that, he handed the check to Liang Xinrou, glanced at Lin Zhao, and whispered: "Let's go, I'll give it to you!"
Then, without saying a word, Mu Liting took Liang Xinrou's wrist and walked to his car.
Feeling the warmth of those big hands, Liang Xinrou's heart skipped a beat, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. That familiar sense of security seemed to seep into her heart bit by bit, and it could not be eliminated for a long time...
Lin Zhao watched Liang Xinrou get into Mu Liting's car and leave like this. She was furious and extremely unwilling. She thought in her heart that she must get the check.
…
…
In the car.
Mu Liting looked at Liang Xinrou through the rearview mirror and asked softly: "Who is he to you??"
Liang Xinrou raised her eyes lightly and looked at Mu Liting, "My stepfather!"
Mu Liting frowned, "Why haven't I heard you say that before?"
"That happened after we broke up!" Liang Xinrou said quietly.
Mu Liting's face darkened.
Liang Xinrou pursed her lips, concealed a smile, and said: "You also know that I have not had a father since I was a child. We, mother and daughter, have always lived together. My mother met Lin Zhao not long ago and got married, so he did
Killed my stepfather!"
"But this man likes to gamble, and he sold many things in the house. In order to avoid him, my mother and I came to City A. I didn't expect that he would find him here. Moreover, we knew that my mother still treated him badly.
She has feelings, but she takes advantage of my mother's weakness and keeps asking me for money."
As Mu Liting listened, his eyes flashed with a complex light that disappeared in an instant.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
After a long time, Mu Liting said: "In the future, if you have any questions, you can come to me and I will help you!"
"Thank you, Li Ting!" Liang Xinrou's eyes softened as she looked at Mu Li Ting.
Mu Liting laughed, "We are friends!"
After a slight pause, he thought of something and said quietly: "When did you come to City A?"
Liang Xinrou looked at Mu Liting, her eyes flashing, "Yesterday...and we already met last night!"
Mu Liting frowned and asked suspiciously, "Last night?"
Realizing something, Mu Liting looked at Liang Xinrou and raised his voice slightly, "You took me home last night?"
Liang Xinrou nodded, "Well, a woman opened the door. She seemed very nervous, but when she saw me... she seemed to have misunderstood..."
Mu Liting finally understood why Ni Keren was so angry. It turned out to be because she saw Liang Xinrou sending him home and she misunderstood!
At this moment, Mu Liting's heart became confused and panicked.
Mu Liting looked at Liang Xinrou and narrowed his eyes, "How did you meet me last night?"
Liang Xinrou looked at Mu Liting's nervous eyes and smiled lightly, "Last night, when I walked out of the 'Holy Emperor's Pavilion', I saw you lying on the car. Moreover, you were very drunk. I
I originally wanted to take you home, but I don’t know where you live now, so I can only help you get into the car and want you to rest for a while..."
Liang Xinrou paused slightly and continued: "Later, I saw that your cell phone kept ringing, but it was not convenient for me to answer it for you. However, I guessed that your family must be very worried about you, so I took your phone and gave it to you.
His assistant called and asked him for your address, so he drove you back..."
Mu Liting did not say a word...
Liang Xinrou glanced at Mu Liting, hesitated for a while, and said, "Is she your wife?"
Mu Liting regained consciousness and nodded, "Yeah!"
"But, I haven't heard of your marriage, and I seem to have seen that she seems to be pregnant?"
"Well, it's been five months."
Liang Xinrou lowered her eyes, covering up her emotions, and whispered: "Why haven't I heard the news about your marriage?"
Just when Mu Liting was about to say something, his cell phone rang. When he saw that it was his home phone number, he subconsciously thought of killing Ni Keren.
I immediately answered the call and heard my mother's urgent voice coming from the phone.
Mu Liting's expression changed, "Okay, I'll be right back."
Liang Xinrou looked at Mu Liting and asked, "Did something happen? Otherwise, you can just find a place for me to get off."
Mu Liting said quietly: "I'll take you back first..."
Liang Xinrou said nothing.
…
…
The car soon stopped downstairs where Liang Xinrou lived.
Her home was a tube building, and the surrounding environment was very poor. Mu Liting took a look and said quietly: "Be careful!"
Liang Xinrou nodded and got out of the car.
Seeing Mu Liting's car driving away, Liang Xinrou sighed and walked upstairs.
After taking just two steps, she saw Lin Zhao walking out of the building, approaching her, and sneered, "Where's the check?"
Liang Xinrou subconsciously protected the bag and said coldly: "No, I gave it back to him."
"What?!" Lin Zhao was angry and walked in, trying to grab Liang Xinrou's bag, "I don't believe it, search it for me."
Liang Xinrou protected the bag from him and shouted: "No, I said it's not anymore, let me go!"
Lin Zhao suddenly grabbed her arm and slapped her hard on the face again. Liang Xinrou fell to the ground, covered her face, and glared at Lin Zhao, "You bastard——"
At this time, a scream came from behind: "Xinrou!"
Liang Xinrou raised her eyes, stood up immediately, and called: "Mom!"
Mother Liang hurriedly walked over, protected her daughter, and looked at Lin Zhao: "How can you beat my daughter?"
Lin Zhao searched for the bag but didn't find the check. He could only throw it to the ground, glared at Liang Xinrou and her daughter, and said: "I'm telling you, if you don't get the money back, get out of here. I've raised you two in vain."
Useless things!"
With that said, Lin Zhao left angrily.
After he left, Liang's mother hugged Liang Xinrou and cried sadly: "Xinrou, it was mom who hurt you!"
Liang Xinrou clutched the check in her hand, feeling resentful and helpless in her heart. She hugged her mother and comforted her: "Mom, it's okay~"
…
…
When Mu Liting rushed home, he saw the doctor walking out of the bedroom.
He immediately stepped forward and asked eagerly: "How is she?"
The doctor said: "She just caught a cold, so she has a little fever. However, she is pregnant and cannot take injections, so I have someone artificially reduce her fever to see if her condition improves tomorrow."
Mu Liting nodded, and without saying anything else, he couldn't wait to walk into the bedroom.
