Chapter 435: The Collapsing Dwarf
Chapter 435: Chapter 435: The Collapsing Dwarf
She supervises Mingming to practice ten calligraphy pages every day, recite texts, learn arithmetic, listen to English, and read classical Chinese...
Shi Ming: ...Damn! Have nannies become so competitive now? Why don’t they just kill themselves with it!!!
Shi Jie glanced at Shi Ming, whose face was pale, and found it amusing.
He looked at Xiang Rong, "Xiao Xiang, do you have a high level of education?"
Xiang Rong shyly shook her head, "I only graduated from high school, but teaching kids is not a problem!"
Shi Jie gave Xiang Rong a once-over, having not paid attention to this young maid before.
At first glance today, he found this young maid very young and... quite pretty.
She cooks and cleans well.
Noticing Shi Jie’s gaze, Xiang Rong cursed inwardly.
"Miss Zhou, don’t worry, I’ve worked part-time as a tutor before, for elementary students.
My grades in the college entrance exam were quite good; it’s just that my family couldn’t afford university..."
Zhou Lin nodded in trust, and looked at Shi Jie, "Husband, don’t worry, Xiao Xiang is fine.
My parents vetted her before, you can rest assured about leaving Mingming with her."
Of course, Shi Jie felt assured, since Shi Ming wasn’t an actual kid. How could he not feel assured?
"Alright, then thanks to Xiao Xiang for taking care of Mingming."
Shi Jie said gently, looking at Xiang Rong.
Xiang Rong looked at Shi Jie’s pretentious demeanor, wanting to throw up inside.
She quickly shifted her gaze, nodding, "No problem, I’ll take good care of Mingming."
Seeing Xiang Rong lower her head, Shi Jie thought she was shy and felt secretly pleased.
After the Zhou family was gone, perhaps he...
Zhou Lin silently watched Shi Jie’s demeanor, feeling utterly disgusted inside.
She now noticed that every time Shi Jie came to pick her up from work before, he seemed to always act this way in front of her colleagues.
Constantly showing off his excellent and caring side.
Making others envious and jealous of her.
She heard many sarcastic comments at school.
Not just at her school, but also at Shi Jie’s school.
At that time, she just thought she was so happy and everyone else was jealous of her.
Now thinking back, it was all Shi Jie’s deliberate act.
He fully displayed outside how good he was to her and her family, making everyone think Shi Jie was too good!
While Zhou Lin and her parents seemed to always be bullying Shi Jie.
When Shi Jie and Shi Ming left, Zhou Lin walked into the ward.
Father Zhou and Mrs. Zhou saw their daughter come in, and sat up.
"Gone?"
"Mm."
Zhou Lin felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Seeing their daughter like this, Father Zhou and Mrs. Zhou felt an ache in their hearts.
The next day, when the police came, they asked if there was any way to resolve this matter, as Zhou Lin was not in good condition and needed treatment.
The police were also in a dilemma because recently, they hadn’t found any link between the dwarf and that organization.
"Don’t worry, we’ll think of a way."
The police assured them.
Returning to the precinct, the police relayed the request from Father Zhou and Mrs. Zhou.
Captain Ma suggested, "Can Xiao Lin try to make contact with the dwarf to see if any clues can be found?"
"Yes! There’s Xiao Lin!"
"Ahem, I’ll speak with the deputy director and have him pass on a message?"
Zhang Ming raised his hand and said.
Everyone thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Even though they all had Xiao Lin’s contact, if the deputy director handled it, hehe...
He Qi’an coldly looked at Zhang Ming after hearing his request.
"A week and no clues?"
Zhang Ming straightened up, quickly saying, "That dwarf hasn’t contacted anyone. We’ve been staking out 24/7, and he definitely hasn’t contacted that organization."
He Qi’an lowered his eyes, "Understood. You can leave now."
Zhang Ming: ??? Deputy Director, haven’t you decided whether to contact Xiao Lin or not?
Returning to the office, Captain Ma looked at Zhang Ming and asked, "So? What did the deputy director say about when Xiao Lin would come?"
Zhang Ming, with a bitter face, "Nothing..."
"Nothing?"
"Nope, the deputy director didn’t contact Xiao Lin."
Captain Ma and others: ....
Everyone glared at Zhang Ming, "That was a bad idea of yours! Otherwise, we could have just contacted Xiao Lin directly!"
Zhang Ming: ....
"So what now?"
Just as Captain Ma was about to contact Lin Xiaoyan, He Qi’an arrived.
Everyone immediately sat up straight and busied themselves with work.
"Director He"
Captain Ma put down his phone, looking at He Qi’an.
He Qi’an nodded slightly, walked over, and inquired about the case progress.
Captain Ma quickly went over the current progress.
After hearing, He Qi’an went to view the surveillance, which showed the dwarf with a look of deep-seated bitterness practicing calligraphy.
In a place Xiang Rong couldn’t see, he was muttering curses.
He Qi’an: "Tell Xiang Rong that Xiao Lin will be visiting soon to make contact with the dwarf."
Captain Ma immediately reached out to Xiang Rong.
Lin Xiaoyan was already on her way to Zhou Lin’s house.
Upon reaching the vicinity of Zhou Lin’s house, she called Xiang Rong.
"Hello, Rongrong..."
Xiang Rong, already notified, glanced at Shi Ming and moved to the side upon seeing Lin Xiaoyan’s call.
"Hello, Yanyan, why did you suddenly call me?"
"What? You’ve come to Sea City! That’s great, I’ve missed you..."
As Shi Ming watched his English lesson, he heard Xiang Rong’s voice, looked up, full of resentment.
He thought with the two old ones in the hospital, he wouldn’t have to learn this crap.
But this fool was still making him study.
Damn it!
He really wanted to take a knife and kill her!
"Ah! I’m nearby, at Jinyuan District!"
"Sure! Sure, come quickly, I’ll be waiting..."
Upon hearing that the maid had a friend coming, Shi Ming turned off the video and approached Xiang Rong.
"Sister, is your friend coming?"
Xiang Rong smiled and nodded, "Yes, I have a friend nearby coming to see me. Have you finished your video lesson?"
Shi Ming fixated his eyes on Xiang Rong, "Sister, I don’t want to watch anymore, I want to rest for a while!"
Xiang Rong raised an eyebrow, smiled, "No way, there’s still five calligraphy pages you haven’t finished today.
If you don’t want to watch the video, go practice your calligraphy!"
Xiang Rong chuckled coldly to herself, just watch as I make you study till you drop dead! Tomorrow, I’ll make you write twenty calligraphy pages!
Make you memorize ancient poems!
Make you do homework...
Shi Ming: "Sister, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell on you?"
Xiang Rong: "Tell on me? Mingming is so good, so obedient, how could you do such a thing?
If your parents find out that you lied and tattled because you didn’t want to study...
Do you think your parents will still love you?"
Shi Ming: !!!
Damn it! Wicked woman!!!
Shi Ming looked at Xiang Rong with venomous eyes.
Xiang Rong wasn’t afraid of this little rascal at all!
Finally, thinking of their plan, Shi Ming could only curse inwardly as he went to the study.
