Chapter 349 I Am Against You! (1/2)
Hearing the happy sound, Xia Ning, Zheng Yao and Mei Ruo all lift to look at the source of it. Xia Ning’s eyes brighten. It is Li Baoer!
She feels very surprised, wondering why does Li Baoer show up here. She should be in her office now.
Li Baoer runs to them. She slightly bends down to gasp, “Ah, Ning, it is a real coincidence. You come to have a barbecue, too?”
Xia Ning blinks her eyes and nods, “Hum. Why are you here?”
“I am on holiday today!” Li Baoer notices the surprise on Xia Ning’s face. She winks at her, “Director Xia, you really have a poor memory. Didn’t you approve my leave few days ago? Don’t worry. I have got my work arranged. It won’t have any problems! Take it easy.”
Xia Ning glimpses Li Baoer’s expression and she comes to understand. Li Baoer belongs to her department and she is the one in charge of approving the leave. Actually, Li Baoer didn’t request for any leave. Today, she shows up here at this time and deliberately says that she has got her work arranged. Li Baoer must come here to help her.
However, she was always serving her mother-in-law and didn’t have any time to call anyone. How does Li Baoer know the situation she is in?
Someone sent her some messages? Those come with her are Zheng Yao, Mei Ruo and Zhang Hai. It can’t be Zheng Yao or Mei Ruo. So, it must be…
“Oh. Yes. I really have a poor memory. As long as you have arranged your work, you may have fun.” Then, Xia Ning stealthily glances at Zhang Hai, who is looking at her at the same time. Zhang Hai turns his face away at once.
Xia Ning smiles. It is correct. It is him who calls for help for her.
“Baoer, it is really a coincidence for you to come here.” Mei Ruo suddenly interrupts. She laughs coldly, “You had known what would happen today some days ago? You really have some heavenly gifted capability.”
Hearing Mei Ruo’s words, Zheng Yao understands at once. She stares at Xia Ning, “Instead of behaving honestly, you always play tricks!”
Li Baoer sees Zheng Yao scold her friend. She gets angry, “Well. Aunt Zheng, who is dishonest? You are a senior, but you also need to watch your words. Listen to me. I don’t care about proper manners. If someone offends me, I don’t care whether she is a senior or not!”
Being contradicted by Li Baoer, Zheng Yao widens her eyes, “Well, girl, you are rude! I didn’t mean you. Why are you angry…”
“I know you didn’t mean me. That’s why I talk you back!” Li Baoer interrupts, “Ning is such a kind person. How can you say so about her? Seemingly, in your opinion, there’s no kind people in the world except yourself and the tricky woman beside you!”
Li Baoer even scolds Mei Ruo together in her words. Mei Ruo lifts her eyebrows, “Who is the tricky woman?”
“You!” Li Baoer sees Mei Ruo turn grey. She straightens her back and responds, “Why? You want to deny? Ning’s husband is away while you take the chance to regale his mother. What a shame! Well. It is flattering you to call you a tricky woman. You are a dog, a toady!”
“Shut up!” Mei Ruo bursts into a fury. She stands up at once and points at Li Baoer, “Get out. We don’t welcome you here!”
“I am not leaving. So what?”
Xia Ning finds that they are going to quarrel more fiercely. She tries to make peace, “All right, stop the quarrel. It is not easy for us to get here. Calm down…”
“I have seen many hypocritical women. But none of them are as much hypocritical as you. You bring people to fight against your mother-in-law.”
Zheng Yao speaks slowly in a low voice. However, every word sounds strongly hostile. Xia Ning feels sad. She purses her lips.
“Mom. You are here!” A child’s voice is heard. Then, a kid comes to throw herself into Li Baoer’s embrace. She says coyly, “Mommy, you walked too fast. Daddy and I can’t catch up with you. Oh, Sister Ning, you are here, too! That is great!”
Zhenzhen says when she claps her hands happily, “Mom, the shed is big. Let’s have a barbecue here. I like to stay with Sister Ning very much!”
Li Baoer looks at Zhenzhen’s bright eyes. She glances at Zheng Yao and responds, “Zhenzhen, I also want you to play with Sister Ning. However, there is a woman kicking us away. She doesn’t allow us to stay here.”
“Ah?” Zhenzhen cries in surprise, “Which woman is so bad? How can she kick other people away?”
Children always speak honestly. Zhenzhen is a little kid. If she argued with a kid, she would be considered really impolite. Mei Ruo can only keep her anger inside.
“Ha, ha. Baoer, is this your kid? She is a mean talker, just like her mother.” Zheng Yao notices that Mei Ruo is put in disadvantage. She smiles to say, “Kid, we have reserved this shed. We paid for it. So, it belongs to us during the time period. We have the right to decide who can stay here and who can’t.”
Zhenzhen turns to Zheng Yao. She blinks her eyes and asks innocently, “Granny, do you mean that you don’t like us and want to kick us away? Granny, Sister Ning and I are good friends. It is the first time for me to meet you. I don’t think I have ever offended you. Why do you kick me away?”
Zheng Yao didn’t expect that Zhenzhen would talk her back. She feels shocked and can’t say anything for an instant.
The kid seems to be seven or eight years old, but her words sound as sharp as a knife.
The atmosphere becomes tense. Zheng Yao turns to Xia Ning. Her eyes look as if she wants to give Xia Ning some slaps at once.
“Oh. I find you two. You are here.”
Hearing the bright male voice, Zhenzhen turns around to cry, “Daddy, you are too slow! Mommy and I have waited for you for quite a while! Look, Sister Ning is here, too.”
