Chapter 148: Watch How I Deal With This Pair of Dogs

"Mom!"

The moment Zhou Yue saw her mother, Xie Fenglan, her eyes instantly turned red.

Having not seen her for over ten days, Xie Fenglan seemed to have aged a whole circle. Her hair had turned gray, her eyes had lost their luster, and she walked unsteadily, as if a gust of wind could blow her over.

Upon seeing Zhou Yue, Xie Fenglan seemed to have regained her soul; she wailed dryly, hugged her daughter, and kept patting her back with both hands.

"Oh, my daughter, you finally came to save me! If you hadn't come, I would have been killed inside by that bastard Lin Dazhi!"

While wailing dryly, Xie Fenglan stomped her feet. The commotion was so loud that people around them kept glancing over, but she didn't care at all; the more people watched, the more vigorously she wailed.

"Mom, it's okay now, it's okay. Let's go home first, let's go home!"

Zhou Yue patted Xie Fenglan's back and comforted her repeatedly.

Xie Fenglan nodded continuously and followed Zhou Yue to the roadside.

When she saw that shiny, black car, her eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't even bother to wail anymore.

"This car is really nice, whose car is this?" Xie Fenglan asked, touching the shiny door handle with her eyes gleaming.

"It's mine," Zhou Yue said very proudly.

"Your car? Where did you get so much money?" Hearing Zhou Yue's words, Xie Fenglan asked with pleasant surprise.

"Don't ask about that for now, Mom. Let's go home first, and I'll tell you slowly when we get there," Zhou Yue said smugly.

Sitting inside the luxurious Mercedes-Maybach, Xie Fenglan felt incredibly comfortable. On the way, she kept asking Zhou Yue what was going on with the car and how the matter with Lin Dazhi had been resolved.

When she heard Zhou Yue say that she had latched onto another truly big shot, she immediately slapped her thigh and cheered repeatedly.

"The Li Family? That's a famous big shot in Jiangzhou. If you can marry him, won't our family be rich?" Xie Fenglan said excitedly, having long since cast aside the fact that her daughter's second husband had just died.

Ever since she learned that Liu Haibo's position as Vice Principal had fallen through and he had been thrown into jail, his value in her heart had been greatly discounted, and she didn't know how many times she had cursed Zhou Yue for having poor judgment.

But now, her own daughter had found such a capable man again in such a short time, which truly satisfied her so much that all the suffering and hardship she had endured in jail didn't seem like anything anymore!

"What? That bastard Lin Dazhi actually made you pay 2.3 million? Bah! Are you stupid? Why should you give him that money? Huh? What could he have done if I just didn't give it to him? At worst, I would have stayed a few more days, and wouldn't that 200,000-plus have been saved?" Hearing that Zhou Yue had settled with Lin Dazhi and paid him 2.3 million, Xie Fenglan felt such heartache that she slapped her thigh repeatedly.

"Mom, wasn't I afraid of you suffering inside? Besides, 2.3 million is nothing to me now. Mr. Li gives me 500,000 in pocket money every month," Zhou Yue said with a smug look.

"Really? He gives you 500,000 a month? To spend however you want?" Hearing her daughter's words, Xie Fenglan's triangular eyes instantly gleamed.

"Of course. Mom, look ahead, Jinjiangyuan. This is a top-tier residential area in our Jiangzhou. I live here now, in a 240-square-meter flat. You'll see how luxurious it is once you get there!" Zhou Yue said somewhat proudly.

After parking the car in the underground garage and taking her mother into the elevator, they went all the way to the eighteenth floor. The moment she opened the door, Xie Fenglan was stunned!

She had never seen such a luxurious house in her entire life!

However, when she saw her old man, Zhou Dakui, that dead old man, sitting at the dining table drinking small sips of liquor with two side dishes, a fire flared up in her heart again.

"Zhou Dakui! You heartless bastard, I suffered so much in jail for so many days, and you, on the other hand, have been living a sweet life outside! You're even drinking, damn it! What, are you celebrating that your wife got locked up?" Xie Fenglan shrieked.

Zhou Dakui was enjoying his drink when he suddenly heard his wife's voice; he was so startled that his hand trembled, and half the glass of wine spilled onto the table.

He looked at the good wine with some heartache, then turned to look at his wife, and only then said with a chuckle: "I knew Xiaoyue was capable. With her stepping in, how could you possibly suffer inside? Didn't you come out smoothly? I was just celebrating for you at home in advance."

"Stop spouting nonsense! I think you were just hoping I'd die in there so you could find someone young and pretty!" Xie Fenglan glared, walked over, slammed the table, and said irritably.

Looking at the good wine on the table, she didn't stand on ceremony, poured herself a glass, and downed it in one gulp.

"Hehe, how could that be? How could that be?" Zhou Dakui said with a fawning smile, hurriedly trying to appease her.

"Can't be bothered with you! By the way, daughter, where is Xiaojun? Why don't I see Xiaojun?" Xie Fenglan walked around and asked suspiciously.

"Mom, I transferred Xiaojun to Peking Union Medical College Hospital and found him a great doctor. The medical standards there are high, and there are specialized staff to care for him, so Xiaojun can recover faster there. Don't worry about it; in a couple of days, I'll take you, and we'll go see him together," Zhou Yue said with a smile.

"Good, good, my daughter is the one with a conscience, knowing to care for her younger brother. By the way, where is that little bitch Zhang Xiaoli? Is she still following that Lin Dazhi?" Mentioning Zhou Xiaojun, Xie Fenglan remembered Zhang Xiaoli and asked hatefully.

"Yes, but Mom, don't worry, she won't be smug for many more days. Not just her, but Lin Dazhi, Bai Weiwei, and that Sun Xiaomei—they won't be able to be smug for long. Just watch," Zhou Yue narrowed her eyes and said coldly.

"What kind of plan do you have?" Hearing her daughter's words, Xie Fenglan instantly perked up.

"Mom, you and Dad just watch carefully. Watch how I deal with that pair of dogs, Lin Dazhi and Zhang Xiaoli, to avenge my little brother!"

"Right, we absolutely cannot let them off lightly! Especially Zhang Xiaoli, that bitch, daring to cheat on my son—if I don't kill her, I won't be surnamed Xie!" Xie Fenglan said viciously.

"Mom, what's the use of just being fierce at home? Don't be so impulsive in the future, and don't go over there to cause trouble. They're just waiting for you to go so you can fall into their trap. To deal with people like that, you have to pinch their Achilles' heel. Doesn't Lin Dazhi think he's something just because he has a little money? I'll make him taste the bitterness of being in debt and poverty!"

As Zhou Yue spoke, she raised her wrist to check her watch; it was already nearly five o'clock.

She picked up her phone and dialed Lin Dazhi's number.

"Lin Dazhi, have you considered it? In a few more minutes, if I don't see that bitch Zhang Xiaoli appear in front of me, you can just wait to die!"
