Having settled on a place, the two discussed their approach, one after the other.
But just after they'd confirmed their plan, Zhao Hu appeared in front of them.
"Mom."
His call nearly scared Liang Jing to death.
Zhang Xiaowei raised an eyebrow, looking at Zhao Hu with annoyance.
"Little Hu, why did you come out?"
Hearing this, Zhao Hu said indifferently, "I'm not sick. Staying at home was suffocating. I was worried Zhang Xiaowei might bully you, so I came to have a look."
Liang Jing's face flushed red, feeling as if her son had discovered something going on between her and Zhang Xiaowei.
Feeling panicked, she hurried to explain.
"Why would Xiaowei bully me for no reason? Don't overthink it, Xiaowei is our family's benefactor who has helped us out a lot."
"You and that lad are at odds, asking him for favors, how could he not make things difficult for you?"
Zhao Hu looked at Zhang Xiaowei coldly, his voice filled with irritation.
