Quick Wear: The Gold Digger Was Influenced by Love Brain

--responsibility.

These two words reminded Wen Ling of his previous life.

So, in the previous life, He Bai kept me by his side out of responsibility?

What about this life?

He didn't know that I was pregnant with his child, why did he let me stay?

Is it because of the novelty, or because he actually likes her a little bit?

Wen Ling looked at Zhu Cong and asked, "You have been with He Bai since you were a child, so you should know him very well, right?"

Zhu Cong said conservatively, "I just happened to spend more time with the boss and know more things, but I can't say I understand him."

Wen Ling asked, "Does he love me?"

Zhu Cong was stunned.

"This……"

Who would ask someone whether they love her or not by asking someone else?

Wen Ling said stubbornly, "You've been with him for so long, you can't be unable to see this, right?"

Zhu Cong said honestly, "I don't know whether the boss loves you or not, but he is indeed special to you."

"Since the boss's mother passed away, he has never cared so much about anyone. Miss Wen, you are the first one."

"When the apocalypse first came, the first person he thought of after waking up was you."

Wen Ling was satisfied.

Since he couldn't get the answer he wanted from He Bai, getting it from people who were closer to He Bai was a form of psychological comfort in disguise.

Wen Ling continued to ask, "He has been unwilling to accept me because of his parents' affairs. He doesn't believe in love, so he keeps pushing me away?"

Zhu Cong's eyes were complicated.

"The boss is probably afraid that he has the same blood as his father flowing in his body and will betray his love like his father in the future, so he is so resistant to love."

Lin Yu couldn't help but nudge him with his elbow.

"You said you didn't understand Brother He, but now your analysis is quite accurate."

"I didn't expect that a grown man like you, who usually looks carefree, is actually so meticulous that you can even see this."

Zhu Cong closed his mouth at the right time.

It would be rude to say any more.

The boss is such a proud, reserved man. After he wakes up, he will definitely be unhappy to know that I revealed so much.

Wen Ling said to Zhu Cong, "Don't call me Miss Wen anymore. Just call me by my name."

Zhu Cong said, "I'll still call you Sister Wen like Xiaoyu did."

Wen Ling, "...You are obviously older than me."

Zhu Cong smiled shyly.

"Although I am older than you, firstly, I am not as capable as you, and secondly, you are my boss's woman. No matter from which perspective, I should call you sister."

Wen Ling, "..."

The elders divided up for no reason.

"As you wish."

The three of them sat down at the dining table and were about to start eating when there was a knock on the door.

Zhu Cong opened the door and saw that it was Lao Zhang. He asked, "Is there anything else?"

Old Zhang gave a simple smile.

"We just slaughtered a pig yesterday. Most of the meat was used to make bacon, but there was still a lot of fresh pork left. My wife fried some hot and sour pork shreds. I'll give you some to try."

Zhu Cong showed a surprised expression.

"Thank you, old man."

Lao Zhang waved his hand.

"Not so polite."

"Anyway, my wife and I can't finish all the meat. It would be a shame if it went bad in the hot weather. I might as well share some with you."

Zhu Cong advised, "Food is in short supply in the last days, you should stock up more."

Lao Zhang nodded.

"I know."

After Lao Zhang left, Zhu Cong closed the door again and brought the plate of fragrant and spicy shredded pork to the table.

Lin Yu took a deep breath.

"smell good!"

"Sister Wen, don't you like spicy and sour food recently?"

“You’ll definitely like this dish.”

In fact, Wen Ling couldn't help but retching when she smelled the food.

"Take it away!"

Zhu Cong didn't expect her to react so strongly, and quickly took the food away.

Just as he was about to open the window to get some fresh air, Wen Ling stopped him.

"Don't open the window."

Zhu Cong had no choice but to stop and look at the plate of tempting and delicious spicy and sour pork in his hand.

"This dish..."

Wen Ling took a sip of water to relieve her morning sickness.

"There's something wrong with this dish, don't eat it yet."

Zhu Cong was stunned.

"How do you know there's a problem?"

Wen Ling couldn't say it was Maoqiu who told her, so she just said, "Women's intuition."

Zhu Cong, "..."

Wen Ling continued, "Food is precious in the end times. We have no relatives or friends with him, so why would he give us food for free?"

“I just don’t feel right.”

Lin Yu also said, "Sister Wen's worry is not without reason. We should always be on guard against others."

"How about we put on a show?"

"It would be best if we are overthinking it. What if it is true?"

Zhu Cong nodded.

"it is good."

-

It's quiet at night.

Outside the small western-style building, a deliberately suppressed sound of footsteps was heard.

The footsteps stopped at the door, followed by the sound of a man and a woman talking.

"They should eat the food given to them, right?"

"I cooked it so deliciously. After the apocalypse, they probably haven't had such delicious food for a long time. I'm sure they not only ate it all, but also left nothing behind!"

"Open the door quickly and take them back. Hua'er can't wait any longer."

Lao Zhang took out the key and quickly opened the door.

When he saw the three people lying on the table, he smiled with satisfaction.

Cauliflower asked, "Didn't you say there were four people?"

"Why are there only three of them?"

Lao Zhang explained, "One of them is injured and should be upstairs."

Cauliflower frowned.

"How could you be so careless? What if that person..."

Lao Zhang said, "What are you afraid of?"

"I'm a fire-type psychic, and I'm not a match for a wounded person?"

"Don't waste time, get started."

They each held a hemp rope and were about to tie up the three unconscious people when the three people who were originally unconscious and lying on the table suddenly stood up.

The two were frightened by this scene.

"You didn't faint?"

They turned around and tried to escape, but were pinned down by Zhu Cong and Lin Yu in a few moves.

A moment later, the two were tied up like dumplings.

Wen Ling stood in front of them and narrowed her eyes dangerously.

"What do you want to do by knocking us out?"

Lao Zhang's eyes were evasive.

"We just want to steal your food while you are unconscious. We have no other intentions."

Caihua begged, "We know we were wrong, and we won't do it again. Please forgive us this time!"

Wen Ling sneered.

"Who is Hua'er?"

Lao Zhang and Caihua's eyes narrowed.

When Wen Ling saw their eyes, she knew she had grasped the point.

"It's okay if you don't want to tell us. We will go to your house and look for it ourselves."

"Or, search the whole village, and you will always find the secrets you hide."

Zhu Cong kicked Lao Zhang hard and said angrily, "Fortunately Sister Wen found it in time, otherwise I would have been deceived by your honest appearance and thought you were so kind to bring us food!"

If you really get knocked unconscious, the consequences will be disastrous.

Lao Zhang knew that his secret had been exposed and showed a desperate expression.

"Hua'er is our son."

"He was originally a lightning psychic, the most powerful person in our village. Almost all the villagers rely on the few psychics in our village for protection."

"But one time when Huaer was out cleaning up zombies, he was bitten on the arm by a zombie in order to protect a five-year-old child in the village. Not long after he came back, he turned into a zombie again."

"The villagers demanded that we hand over Hua'er and burn him."

"My son has done so much for the villagers, but they are so ungrateful. They all deserve to die!"
