Midnight Forced Marriage

Chapter 258 Grandma Zhou's Deception
"And..." Mengyue was still looking at Grandma Zhou, "She looked quite young at the time, but I was sure it was her, because she had a mole on her ear, here... just here..."

Mengyue said while tugging at her ear, pointing out where it was for me.

I carefully identified the location, it was on the left ear, and I walked to Grandma Zhou's bedside.Mrs. Xiaojia, who was listening to all the content, helped me to tie a strand of Grandma Zhou's white hair knowingly, and gently turned her ears.Sure enough, there was a mole behind the left earlobe.

"Grandma Zhou, can you hear me?"

"...Of course." Although Grandma Zhou just woke up from drowsiness, she was still awake, she sat up when she saw this, looked at us, and smiled, "Not only can I hear you, I can even hear what he said. "

I had a look of embarrassment on my face, "Grandma Zhou, are you okay?"

Grandma Zhou nodded, "Although I have a terminal illness, my mind is still not confused. Don't worry, tell me, what happened?"

"This..." Mrs. Xiaojia and I looked at each other face to face, "Mr. Zhou, who was staying in the east room, disappeared. Today, someone came to collect debts and called the police. But when we went out to find Mr. Zhou, we found that He may know the whereabouts of Mr Zhou."

"Yeah." Grandma Zhou closed her eyes, as if she was tired after hearing these few words, "I see, just tell me what you need."

"We're going to take a look at Mr. Zhou's room right now. I'll ask Meng...my husband Chu Yue to stay with you, okay?"

Grandma Zhou smiled softly, and a hint of wisdom flashed in her cloudy eyes, "Two women went out to investigate, and let a man stay and take care of me?"

"This..." I also laughed, "Okay, let Mrs. Xiaojia accompany you, we husband and wife will go to see it."

"It's almost there."

I sighed and exchanged glances with Madam Xiaojia.Well, it just happened to move Mengyue, the ticking time bomb, so as not to irritate Grandma Zhou by saying something.I winked at him, "Let's go."

When I went out, I glanced at Mr. Zhou's east room, then pulled Meng Yue who was about to walk in that direction, turned around and walked towards our west room.

"Hey, aren't you going to that room?" Meng Yue looked surprised, and the autumn wind blew his hair to my face.

I chuckled, "It's too late, let's go tomorrow."

"But there are people there."

My heart suddenly sank, sure enough!

"I know there are people, but the origin is unknown. It's so late, let's not provoke them, we will talk about it tomorrow."

Meng Yue was startled, and looked at me in surprise, "But you let the bad guy who didn't knock on the door, and didn't know how to break in, just leave it there? Don't say it's a bad guy, it's just an ordinary thief. He stole it all. East, won’t you come around to the west again? Didn’t you just say that Mr. Zhou owed him a debt, which means that there should be no money in that room, and the thieves don’t leave empty, what will we do when they come to us?”

I chuckled, and glanced at the doors of Grandma Zhou and Mrs. Xiaojia, "Don't worry, if you go out to the east, you must enter the main room first, and then..."

"Okay!" Mrs. Xiaojia finally lost her composure, opened the door with a sound effect and yelled at us, then turned around and closed the door, "Grandma Zhou is afraid that I will be in danger, so you don't want to scare people outside the door. "

I raised my eyebrows, "Joke, isn't what I said the truth?"

"What your husband said is true." Mrs. Xiaojia raised the key in her hand, "Even if it's just an ordinary thief, he might visit you west."

"No, we don't have to worry about it." I said, "When I return to the room, I will paste three defensive charms and blindness charms. The thief searched and searched, and all he found were your two rooms. He couldn't find the west room. Unless he can cast spells, but even then, it will not be a short while to solve my talisman. Unless he is a master, but if he is a master, why should he be a thief? "

Mrs. Xiao Jia sighed, and sneered, "Just now he was working as a detective together, did we know the enemy so quickly?"

"Please, you guys pushed us out as a shield."

"Grandma Zhou is just worried about me, afraid that I will have an accident. After all, I am only alone, and you are husband and wife."

I nodded, agreed, and looked at him coldly, "You also said that we were detectives together just now, are you alone?"

Madam Xiaojia was speechless for a moment.

"Put my husband here, what's wrong?" I smiled, and glanced at Grandma Zhou's door again, "Some people are transparent, simple, and only know risks and sacrifices. But some people, getting along For the rest of your life, you don’t know his temperament, or even what kind of person he is inside.”

Mrs. Xiaojia raised her eyebrows, looking at a loss.I know that my words have challenged the softest part of her heart.

"You, you..." She is actually not a eloquent person, but she easily suppresses others with her domineering character and quick-talking. When all the reasons are presented in front of her, she stutters like this.

"Mrs. Xiaojia, you are an honest person." I looked at her fixedly, sincerely, and then glanced at the door, "But Grandma Zhou is a deceitful person."

"You...you can't talk about her like that!" Mrs. Xiao Jia suddenly took my hand, dragged me to a place farther away, and lowered her voice, "Fortunately, the wind is so strong that she can't hear her, so stop talking, after all She is an elder, and she is already critically ill."

"She is physically sick, but her mind is still very clear." I said, "How did you meet her?"

"It's a long story." She frowned, and tightened her skirt again, "It's cold outside, I think we'd better go to Mr. Zhou's room to have a look before we talk about anything else."

I sighed, "Where's the key?"

"Here." Madam Xiaojia hastily raised a bunch of keys in her hand to my eyes.

"Take yours off, and leave the rest to me for safekeeping." I said in a cold, unceremonious voice, "especially the ones at the gate."

"This……"

"Maybe" I raised my eyebrows, "we've stayed here long enough, you can say the number, we'll pay the rent, it doesn't matter if we move out tonight."

"Don't!" Madam Xiaojia hurriedly grabbed my arm, "In such a dangerous situation, there are only me and Grandma Zhou. If you leave again, won't we be slaughtered?"

"Do you still know how powerful people are?" I sneered, "Do you want to work together with us? Or do you want to push us out as a shield?"

Mrs. Xiao Jia shook her head desperately, "Grandma Zhou is getting confused, I will tell her, you are good people, and you are capable, please don't leave, please."

With a blank expression on my face, I held out my hand to her.She understood and took off her key, and put the others in my hands.

Mengyue was watching the whole time, unlike the chattering just now, but now she didn't say a word.
