Chapter 209: Is It Really a First Kiss?
"I don't know that person, let him go!"
Ming Zi knew that both of her sisters-in-law were staring at her now; she took two red banknotes out of her bag and handed them to the young nurse, "Sorry for the trouble."
The young nurse feigned a refusal before accepting them, then went out and sternly said to the man looking for Ming Zi, "I'm sorry, there is no one named Ming Zi in our hospital."
Xue Ming looked at the young nurse and shook his head, "You're lying, I just saw her through a gap in the second-floor balcony."
As a naval pilot, his eyesight was excellent.
Young nurse:...
"You've mistaken the person; she doesn't know you at all. You'd better leave quickly! Otherwise, I'm calling security."
Xue Ming would never mistake her; that woman had swindled him out of his first kiss only two days after they met, and he had thought of every inch of her features hundreds of times in the night.
There was absolutely no possibility of a mistake.
"That is my wife, do you think I could mistake her?"
Young nurse:...
So it was a couple having a disagreement.
Uh, they sure know how to play.
After Xue Ming reached the second floor, he saw Ming Zi standing at the entrance of the intensive care unit with two other women.
He frowned.
"Ming Zi, did that man come looking for you?" the eldest sister-in-law stared at Ming Zi with sharp eyes.
This sister-in-law had occupied the Luo Family's property after her husband died, and now she even wanted to snatch the little bit of family assets in the old man's hands from them; it was truly too much.
The two sisters were lingering here now just to catch Ming Zi in a mistake and make her recognize her own place.
"Are you seeing a boyfriend again?" the second sister of the Luo Family also pressed her, "With your fickle nature, who knows when you'll remarry? How could we dare to hand the Luo Family's things over to you?"
The two of them each grabbed one of Mother Luo's arms, "Mom, I am your daughter! Dad's things must have a share for me!"
"Mom! You must distinguish clearly between a daughter-in-law and a daughter!"
"Besides, she says it nicely that it's left for the children, but who knows which wild man it will benefit in the future?"
Ming Zi arched her willow eyebrows, "If it's for the children, I don't know which wild man it might benefit, but if it's given to you two, then it's certain—it will one hundred percent benefit a wild man."
Mother Luo was also there; Ming Zi tried her best to ignore Xue Ming's gaze, cursing him hundreds of times in her heart.
And incidentally, she also cursed her own lustful self on the Haidao a few times.
"Mom, you don't know, do you?" Ming Zi smiled and brought out her trump card, "The eldest brother-in-law owes over a million in usury from gambling. All the money you previously got from the company for the eldest sister was taken by the eldest brother-in-law to fill the hole."
"If Dad's things were given to the eldest sister, they would probably all be finished."
The eldest Luo sister was shocked; she had kept this matter very tight, how could Ming Zi know?
"And you, second sister, the second brother-in-law is keeping a mistress outside, and now he's been swindled. Isn't all the money in your family spent on those wild women outside?"
She crossed her arms, calm and composed, "Mom, I am standing here today with your grandchildren without any designs on the antiques in Dad's hands. Dad is gone, but you are still here; naturally, you should keep the things."
Mother Luo patted the back of her hand, "Mom knows what she's doing."
It was just that she looked at the man standing not far away with some worry, only to see that the man had already left.
It seemed he had just walked the wrong way.
Seeing this, the two Luo sisters were also stunned and questioned Ming Zi, "You really don't know that man from just now?"
"I know him," Ming Zi sighed. When she lowered her head, she pinched her palm hard with her thumb, and when she looked up again, her eyes were already red, letting anyone see how wronged she was, "I know every man who passes in front of me. If the eldest sister and second sister both think so, then let it be so!"
Eldest Luo sister:...
Second Luo sister:...
Mother Luo knew this daughter-in-law of hers; she had a sense of propriety and was intelligent. Moreover, even when she was dating before, she had never thought of remarrying and remained wholeheartedly in the Luo Family.
She had raised the three children very well; in the end, they were the bloodline of the Luo Family, which was better than giving it to outsiders.
"Alright," Mother Luo took a tissue from her pocket and handed it to Ming Zi, then glared at her two daughters with displeasure, "Your father is dead, but I am still alive. Don't you go coveting those things for now."
Yesterday, while the old man could still speak, he had already told her.
"When a person gets old, they have no value, and it is common for children and grandchildren to be unfilial."
"So after I am gone, you must not give those things to the children, not even one."
"Only when you are the only one who knows will they be filial to you after I am gone."
"Old woman, remember, until the very last moment, never let it slip."
Mother Luo remembered.
So until the old man's funeral was over, she had not let slip where those things were hidden.
The two daughters were one more filial than the other, fighting to take her home to look after her.
Only Ming Zi said, "Mom, you can go wherever you want; home will always be waiting for you to return."
Mother Luo liked hearing this. Yes, at this age, no matter which daughter's house she went to, she was a guest; it was only comfortable staying in her own home.
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Ming Zi went to the mall to buy New Year's goods.
While picking out candies, she saw Xue Ming.
She sighed.
She made a gesture to Xue Ming, and Xue Ming followed her all the way to a hot pot restaurant on the top floor of the mall.
Smelling the fragrance, Ming Zi really felt like eating hot pot.
She ordered a few dishes she liked to eat, then pushed the menu to Xue Ming opposite her.
Xue Ming also learned from her and somewhat awkwardly checked off two dishes.
"Alright, now you can tell me your purpose for coming."
In her heart, she was still grateful to Xue Ming, grateful that he turned and walked away at the hospital that day.
Otherwise, Mother Luo might not necessarily trust her so much now.
"You stole my first kiss, you have to take responsibility." Xue Ming stared at her, at her lips, very seriously.
They were rosy, like cherries, very delicious, but also poisonous.
Ming Zi:...
She also hadn't expected that some people would chase her all the way from the Haidao thousands of miles away to Huaiyang just because of a kiss.
It wasn't worth the trouble; if it were her, even if she had lost her virginity, she probably wouldn't bother to go looking.
"Is it really your first kiss?"
Ming Zi asked again, thinking to herself, this man is so old, if his first kiss is still there, could that other thing also still be there?
The question made Xue Ming anxious, and a flush quickly rose to the man's cheeks.
Like a young, inexperienced lad being teased, he was eager to prove it.
But something like a first kiss isn't like other things; there is actually no difference between the first time and the hundredth time, so it is hard to prove.
But Ming Zi actually believed him.
She knew the difference between a man's first kiss and a regular kiss.
But, him chasing her here made her somewhat annoyed, so the words she spoke were not very pleasant, like a patron who had no intention of acknowledging someone after pulling up his pants, "Then how much money do you want?"
