Zhang Ziqing had a surprised expression on her face. "Buying some clothes for the baby? Isn't it a bit too early?"

Zhou Xinyao smiled and replied: "Let's prepare in advance. Anyway, we know that he is a little boy."

Zhou Xinyao had not fully realized in her heart that she was going to be a mother. However, with the little one's naughty fetal movements, she felt the presence of this little life more and more.

Compared to her previous state of being indifferent to everything, she now has more expectations in her heart, or she has more hope for life.

After the meal, the two went to a nearby maternity and baby store together.

Looking at the dazzling array of small clothes, Zhou Xinyao suddenly recalled the scene eight years ago.

At that time, she had just become pregnant and was tortured by morning sickness. In order to protect the fetus, she quit her stable job.

Since then, she has been carefully nurturing the little life in her belly at home, quietly waiting for her birth.

She still remembers vividly the scene when Liu Wanning was just born. The little one cried very loudly.

All the past events appeared in Zhou Xinyao's mind one after another.

Thinking of Liu Wanning, Zhou Xinyao couldn't help but choke up again.

Zhang Ziqing immediately noticed Zhou Xinyao sobbing while staring at a piece of clothing, and quickly pulled her arm to comfort her, "Xinyao, didn't we just agree not to recall the unhappy things in the past?"

"I don't recall unhappy things. On the contrary, I only think of happy memories. It's just that Wan Ning..."

Zhou Xinyao was so sad that she couldn't even speak. She covered her mouth and burst into tears.

Zhang Ziqing held Zhou Xinyao in her arms, "Xinyao~Don't worry, Wan Ning will be fine."

"But where is she now? I'm really worried that she has been harmed by bad people," Zhou Xinyao said with tears in her eyes.

"Xinyao, think about it~ It's useless for you to cry now. Wan Ning will not come back because of your crying. Moreover, the culprit of all this is..."

Zhang Ziqing swallowed the three words "Liu Zhiqiang", fearing that it would trigger Zhou Xinyao's even more grief-stricken emotions.

Zhou Xinyao wiped her tears and said, "Ziqing, I understand what you said. Crying is useless. It will only hurt your body and the baby in your belly."

"Yes, now that you have thought of all this, stop crying." I believe Wan Ning will come back safely.

"Well, we have to face this fucked up life with the most optimistic attitude."

"Haha, Xinyao~you also used swear words," Zhang Ziqing laughed.

Zhou Xinyao rolled her eyes at Zhang Ziqing, "What's wrong with swearing? No one has stipulated that you can't swear."

Zhang Ziqing echoed, "Yes, I think swearing is a good way to vent emotions. It's better to be a shrew than a woman who resents herself in the boudoir."

The two were choosing clothes and joking around, unaware that the clerk had secretly taken many photos of them.

What they didn't know was that this maternal and child supplies store was owned by the Zou family. The clerk recognized the two of them as soon as they entered the store.

After eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people, he became more certain of their identities.

The clerk only knew that there was a dispute between the two families and did not know the purpose of Zhou Xinyao's coming here. He thought she was not just here to pick out clothes, so he sent the pictures to the large group of the shopping mall.

The group immediately exploded.

The messages in the group have always been work-related, but after several photos of Zhou Xinyao were posted in the group, hundreds of people in the group began to discuss it, saying all kinds of things.

Zou Shuanglong is also in this group, and he is the group owner, but he usually doesn't have the time to take care of such small matters.

But someone actually @ed the group owner in the group, causing him to pick up his phone while he was in a meeting.

Seeing Zhou Xinyao coming to his store to shop, Zou Shuanglong also found it very strange and ridiculous.

He then forwarded the photo to the family group with the caption: Does this woman really have so much leisure time, or does she really have other intentions towards our Zou family?

As no one responded, Zou Shuanglong had to put down his phone in disappointment.

But less than ten minutes later, a message popped up in the family group.

It was sent by Sister Zouyuan.

Zou Jieyuan wrote: "This woman really deserves a beating. She got the advantage but she's still acting cute. I think she came here to show off her power."

Sister Zou was lying on the bed, and she felt severe pain when she turned over.

Although they were just some superficial injuries, they were very painful for the pampered Zou Jieyuan.

Seeing herself suffering in bed and Zhou Xinyao actually going to her family's store to hang out, Zou Jieyuan was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.

"I must teach this woman a lesson!"

Zou Jieyuan sent this message to the group, but then withdrew it, fearing that Zou Qingfeng would stop her actions.

"How should I deal with this woman?" Zou Jieyuan thought secretly in her heart.

"Give her a beating? That doesn't seem like a good idea. Dad will scold me to death."

"Then what should we do? We can't just watch her get away with it."

Sister Zou racked her brains to think.

Suddenly, she thought of a vicious plan, and also a plan that she thought was killing two birds with one stone.

After thinking about this, she called Zou Jian, the housekeeper of the Zou family.

Zou Jian is a distant cousin of Zou Qingfeng, and has worked for the Zou family for more than 20 years. In these 20 years, he has gained a lot of money from it, and naturally he is inclined towards the Zou family.

"Uncle Six, I need your help."

Sister Zou called out in a soft and coquettish voice.

Zou Jian replied cheerfully: "Sister Yuan, you said, as long as I can do it, I will spare no effort to do it."

"Do you remember my mother's maid named Hu Lijuan?"

Zou Jieyuan asked with a smirk on her face.

"Hu Lijuan? Of course I remember. Wasn't she the one who had an affair with your father's driver? And then she was beaten half to death by his original wife."

Zou Jieyuan quickly replied: "Yes, yes, that little slut."

"Sister Yuan, why are you asking about her? She left the Zou family after that incident. As far as I know, she has now gone to the Bai family. This stinky bitch is here to piss us off."

Zou Jian said cursingly.

"Yes, my mother was so good to her, but I didn't expect she was such an ungrateful person. Uncle, I want you to help me find her family's address and contact information."

"What are you looking for this for?" Zou Jian asked in confusion.

Zou Jieyuan smiled mischievously, "Of course I am useful."

"Okay~ I'll look for it right away, please wait."

Zou Jian retrieved Lijuan's family information and sent it to Zou Jieyuan.
