Chapter 350 The Deaf Old Lady Breaks the Situation
Qin Huairu felt like a thorn in her back when faced with the kindness of the middle-aged lady, and every inch of her skin seemed to be burned by fire.
Her heart seemed to be violently stirred by an invisible giant hand. Emotions such as guilt, fear, and shame hit her like a surging tide, wave after wave.
She knew very well that her and Yi Zhonghai's shameful behavior was like a bomb buried deep underground. Once it was known by the aunt, the gentle and kind old woman would be filled with hatred, and the spearhead of this hatred would inevitably be directed directly at her.
Qin Huairu forced herself to force a bitter smile, which was even more bitter than the withered chrysanthemums in the cold winter.
She spoke with difficulty, her voice trembling slightly: "Auntie, thank you, you are always so kind."
She didn't dare look directly into the eyes of the old lady, her gaze wandering around in panic, and her evasive look seemed to tell of her endless anxiety.
Yi Zhonghai stood aside, with beads of sweat on his forehead.
He was keenly aware of Qin Huairu's unnaturalness. Her stiff posture and forced smile were like a mirror to him, clearly reflecting the secret that was about to be exposed.
He knew very well that truth would come to light sooner or later. If they allowed the situation to continue to develop, the disguise they had worked so hard to create would be ruthlessly torn apart.
So he hurriedly said, "Huai Ru, take Xiao Dang back to cook. The children must be hungry."
Yi Zhonghai tried his best to keep his voice steady, but the slightly trembling ending still revealed his inner nervousness.
"Well, let's go back now."
Qin Huairu felt as if she had been pardoned, and hurriedly pulled Xiaodang away.
Her steps were hurried and disorderly, as if she was being chased by a demon, and her panicked back seemed to be escaping from an abyss that was about to swallow her.
The old lady looked in the direction Qin Huairu left, and the gentle smile on her face seemed to be suddenly blown away by a gust of cold wind and disappeared without a trace.
She silently picked up the vegetables she had bought and slowly walked towards the kitchen.
Ever since He Daqing left, Auntie has become much colder towards Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai was not unaware of the change in Auntie, but at the moment his mind was filled with Qin Huairu and the baby in her belly, and he didn't pay any attention to Auntie at all.
After Qin Huairu left, Yi Zhonghai did not stop for a moment and hurried towards the deaf old lady's house.
After the incident when He Daqing came back to make things difficult for him, the deaf old lady had become an omnipotent wise man in his heart.
In his eyes, the deaf old lady was like a beacon, able to guide him in this foggy situation.
Yi Zhonghai walked into the house and first greeted the deaf old lady respectfully, and then couldn't wait to tell her about the trouble Xu Damao had caused him today.
His brows were furrowed, his eyes burning with anger and anxiety: "Old lady, that bastard Xu Damao was looking for trouble with me on the road today. His words were full of threats. I think he wanted to push me into a desperate situation!"
At this point, he paused, took a deep breath, as if he had mustered up great courage, and continued: "Also, old lady, Huairu is pregnant with my child."
When the deaf old lady heard what Yi Zhonghai said, she was stunned at first, and a complicated look flashed in her turbid eyes.
She thought to herself that it was she who accidentally saved the dying Yi Zhonghai, but it was also because of that accident that Yi Zhonghai drank the sterilization drug.
Therefore, the child in Qin Huairu's belly definitely cannot be Yi Zhonghai's. Qin Huairu had relationships with three people last month. The child is either Jia Dongxu's or Xu Damao's.
But now Yi Zhonghai believes it without a doubt, which is troublesome.
Her thoughts raced, she thought that now that she had lost all her money, she was still counting on Yi Zhonghai to support her in her old age for the rest of her life, and the fact that Yi Zhonghai was infertile must be kept a secret.
The deaf old lady narrowed her eyes and fell into deep thought.
She thought to herself, "The matter of the child must be kept secret. What about that kid Xu Damao? This matter should have been perfect. Who leaked the news to him?"
Yi Zhonghai saw that the deaf old lady did not respond immediately, nor did she urge her. She just stood there quietly, her eyes full of expectation and anxiety.
At the same time, Xu Damao returned home and was busy cooking at the stove, while repeatedly pondering the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu in his mind.
All kinds of bold and obscene speculations surged in his narrow mind: "Maybe after sleeping with me, Qin Huairu, that bitch, had an affair with Yi Zhonghai. Humph, that woman's figure is really attractive, with a protruding front and a curved back. Every time I think about it, I feel like a cat is scratching my heart."
Xu Damao's eyes flashed with desire, but it was quickly replaced by anger. "But this bitch actually conspired with Yi Zhonghai to extort 600 yuan from me. What a shameless bitch!"
But the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had accidentally discovered the affair between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu today.
A smug sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Yi Zhonghai will definitely come to me again. With his stubborn temper, he will not fight to the death with me. He must want to reconcile and return the 600 yuan to me. But I will not let them go so easily. I have to make a big profit from him and let him know the price of scheming against me. I will make them unable to raise their heads in this hospital!"
As Xu Damao thought about it, he added a pinch of salt into the pot, as if the salt in his hand was Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.
The deaf old lady pondered for a long time, then slowly said to Yi Zhonghai: "Zhonghai, this matter is not that simple. Xu Damao is not a good person. He is like a wolf biting its prey and will not let go easily. You want to return the 600 yuan to him and be done with it, but he will definitely not agree. As for Qin Huairu's pregnancy, you have to be careful and don't be fooled by appearances."
There was a hint of indifference and calculation in her eyes. In her opinion, for her own benefit, she must keep a firm control over Yi Zhonghai and not let this matter get out of her control.
She couldn't point it out explicitly that Qin Huairu's child was not his, but she felt it was necessary to remind her implicitly.
Yi Zhonghai didn't notice anything unusual and nodded in agreement, his brows still furrowed. "Old lady, I know this is troublesome. But I don't have any other options now. I can't watch Huairu get implicated. I have to find a way to resolve this matter. I also want to return the 600 yuan. I can't let Xu Damao ruin our reputation."
The deaf old lady frowned slightly and sneered in her heart: "Humph, you silly boy, you are bewitched by that woman and you don't even know that the child is not yours. However, as long as you can still be of use to me, I have to help you stabilize the situation."
On the surface, she still said kindly, "Zhong Hai, don't panic. I have a way to make Xu Damao shut up."
The deaf old lady spoke slowly, with a hint of cunning in her eyes.
Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up, and he asked hurriedly, "Old lady, what can you do? Tell me quickly."
"Go talk to Xu Damao and bring up his girlfriend Lou Xiao'e. Tell him that if he continues to pester you and Qin Huairu, you should exaggerate his scandals and tell Lou Xiao'e about his behavior outside. The Lou family is a family that values its reputation. If they knew he was messing around like this outside, they would be extremely disappointed in him. Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e are about to get married, so he definitely wouldn't dare to take the risk."
