Chapter 527 Putting Luo Jing in a Cage
Chapter 527 Putting Luo Jing in a Cage
Luo Jing lay on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, cursing all over the place. She then received a message from Shi Jia informing her that she only had two yuan left this week, and she should cherish every penny.
He then handed Luo Ning's letter to Liu Aihong, which included two sentences addressed to Liu Aihong: "Mom, Luo Jing needs to be properly disciplined before she can be promoted. I hope you will cooperate with Shi Jiatuyi's actions and arrange for them to stay in the workshop's dormitory."
Liu Aihong nodded repeatedly, as if she had received a royal decree, and put the letter away. Too lazy to look at Luo Jing's tantrum, she turned around and went into the kitchen to bring out dinner.
Luo Jing's behavior overturned Ling Wei's understanding, and she was a little stunned.
She didn't realize it until Liu Aihong called her to eat.
Luo Jing's dinner mainly consisted of leftover rice heated with hot water, along with a main dish: pickled mustard greens made by Luo Ning.
Luo Jing's heart pounded as she smelled the aroma of Ling Wei's food, and her attempts to take over were repeatedly nipped in the bud by Liu Aihong.
She must not be their biological child; she was picked up from the outhouse!
Luo Jing became increasingly heartbroken as she thought about it, and tears streamed down her face.
Ignoring her tearful eyes, Liu Aihong finished her meal, put down her chopsticks, and said, "Luo Jing, wash the dishes. You're 16 now, you should do some chores around the house."
"Why? Luo Ning does nothing but study all day!" Luo Jing retorted forcefully.
She spent all her money on snacks this week and didn't eat properly. She was looking forward to having a good meal when she got home in the evening, but all she got was the smell of food.
She was furious, both physically and emotionally, and she wouldn't do any work!
Liu Aihong glanced at Luo Jing and said, "If you can get the top score in the county, I won't make you do any work either."
Luo Jing was so angered by the rebuke that she almost vomited blood, and she hurriedly cleared away the dishes.
"If you break a bowl, don't eat breakfast tomorrow. I think you're just being lazy and need to skip a few meals."
After saying that, Liu Aihong sent Ling Wei back to her room and quickly went to pack Luo Jing's clothes.
Luo Jing looked up to the sky and roared, "She really was adopted!"
Starting today, Luo Ning will put Luo Jing in a cage, and Luo Jing's bleak life will begin from this day forward.
In the Luo family, Luo Jing is not an isolated case; there is someone even worse off than him!
That's our cousin, Comrade Liu Chunsheng.
Because of dissatisfaction with the emotional abuse from his family, coupled with a sharp decline in his standard of living.
His mother went even further, hiding away his good clothes and giving him a pile of tattered clothes, some of which were patched.
Life has regressed fifty years, returning us to the pre-liberation era overnight.
Unable to bear this injustice, Liu Chunsheng ran away from home.
I haven't been home for ten days now.
The flocks of geese in the sky sometimes formed an "S" shape, sometimes a "B" shape, which annoyed Liu Chunsheng to no end.
His older cousin had been away for several days, and he only found out today. His whole family had kept quiet about it from him.
This is unbearable; he should just become someone else's son.
Liu Chunsheng was writing his report in a fit of anger when he suddenly heard a familiar voice calling out, "Comrade Liu Chunsheng, you really are in the office!"
Liu Chunsheng looked up at Hu Li, who was walking in with small, quick steps. Was he not in the office or in the outhouse?
"Is something wrong?"
"I heard that Luo Jing has been placed under house arrest. Can you come with me to see her?" Hu Li tilted her head and blinked.
She went to the No. 2 Middle School in the city this week, and every time she went there, she encountered those two dogs blocking her way, making it impossible for her to get close to Luo Jing.
Luo Jing's old trick is no longer effective; she needs to think of another way.
Liu Chunsheng was very close to Luo Ning, which was just the right stepping stone for her.
Liu Chunsheng suddenly felt a little dazed. It reminded him of the junior colleague who had just reported to the police station years ago, looking at him with her head tilted in the same way, asking if he had time to go out with her to buy something. She was completely unfamiliar with the area and had no idea where anything was...
Seeing Liu Chunsheng lost in thought and wandering to the horizon, Hu Li waved her hand in front of his eyes, "Chunsheng?"
Liu Chunsheng immediately snapped out of his daze, wiped his face, and didn't notice that Hu Li's way of addressing him had gone too far. "Wait for me on the bench for a bit, I'll be done soon!"
"Oh!" A strange excitement flashed in Hu Li's eyes. As long as she went to the village, she could see Xie Chang'an. Just thinking about it made her girlish heart flutter.
More than half an hour later, the two entered the village side by side and headed straight for Luo Jing's house. Liu Chunsheng immediately asked, "Auntie, where is Luo Jing?"
"He's at school!" Liu Aihong replied casually, as she hadn't seen Chunsheng for a while.
Liu Aihong glanced at Hu Li. What was this woman doing in the village in the middle of the night? Could it be...?
Hu Li immediately found a way out and stepped forward to explain, "Auntie, I heard that Luo Jing was being held captive by two women, so I came with Chunsheng to check on her."
Liu Aihong was displeased; what kind of nonsense was this?
And why does this woman call Chunsheng so affectionately? Didn't she hear a word her second brother said last time? Ah!
Moreover, Liu Chunsheng seemed to be adapting well. Could the two of them be dating?
Liu Aihong's heart sank. She glanced at Liu Chunsheng and said, "Liu Chunsheng, you brought a woman to my house in the middle of the night to interrogate me. What's wrong with you? Why don't you just fly to the sky?"
Liu Aihong fired at Liu Chunsheng like a string of firecrackers.
Liu Chunsheng retreated repeatedly, thinking, "Auntie, you're something else! I can't afford to mess with you!"
“Auntie, this has nothing to do with Chunsheng. I saw two women following Luo Jing, and I felt that her movements were being controlled.”
Hu Li jumped out to assert her presence and took the blame upon herself.
It would have been better if she hadn't stood up. Her brazenly jumping out like this directly stepped on Liu Aihong's tail. "What do you mean by house arrest? It means Luo Ning's bodyguards are supervising Luo Jing to ensure she studies properly and to avoid interference."
Hu Li was stunned by Liu Aihong's imposing manner and unconsciously took a step back, her eyes welling up with tears.
Liu Chunsheng suddenly realized that he knew his cousin had bodyguards. It was they who had driven away the harassing aunt's family and several unscrupulous distributors a few days ago.
Although he was somewhat resentful that Hu Li hadn't understood the situation before bringing him to their door, Liu Chunsheng couldn't bear to blame her when he saw that she was about to cry.
"Comrade Hu Li, thank you for your concern for Luo Jing. This is just a misunderstanding. Let me take you home!"
Hu Li nodded and sincerely apologized to Liu Aihong, though she was seething with hatred inside.
Liu Aihong rolled her eyes, completely unaccepting. Da Ya was right: if apologies were enough, what would be the point of having police?
Seeing Liu Chunsheng and Hu Li leave side by side, she quickly raised her voice, "I'm going too!"
The sight of these two, a lone man and a lone woman, going in and out in the middle of the night was rather unpleasant, so she had to keep an eye on them.
She completely ignored Liu Chunsheng's refusal and Hu Li's unwillingness, and walked away.
What should have been a simple farewell turned into Liu Chunsheng accompanying Liu Aihong for a walk, with seeing Hu Li off being just a side job.
Liu Chunsheng and Liu Aihong returned the way they came. When they were almost in the village, Liu Chunsheng smelled smoke in the wind. He immediately turned off Liu Aihong's flashlight, helped her into the village and took her home, and then quietly sneaked back to the village entrance.
However, Liu Chunsheng found nothing and returned home dejectedly.
A tall figure emerged from behind the haystack, watching Liu Chunsheng's departing figure, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.
The lady is coming back. The Luo family and the Liu family, your good days are coming to an end!
