At night, when Ji Yuanyuan took a bath, Li Miao was the one who brought him in. Li Xu was also a hands-off manager once.
Knowing she was tired, Zhang Kun closed the door and carefully massaged her legs. He advised her, âDonât work too hard. Just learn slowly.â
Li Xu replied with her eyes closed.
She also wanted to learn slowly, but this was related to Yuanyuanâs space, so she didnât want a third person to interfere.
After she learned it, she and Yuanyuan could deliver the vegetables together. Without the third person, Yuanyuan would be safer.
Zhang Kunâs massage was so comfortable that Li Xu fell asleep soon after.
Zhang Kun woke up early the next morning.
He had been thinking about Zhang Yaoâs family last night, so he didnât sleep much.
After he got out of bed, he quickly put on his clothes and went next door.
He took the key to open the door but found that he couldnât open it no matter what.
âDid I take the wrong key?â Zhang Kun stared at the key in his hand suspiciously. Was there a problem?
He tried again. The key could be inserted, but it just couldnât open.
Zhang Kun suddenly realized that the door was locked from the inside.
After returning to his senses, he was so angry that he slammed the door on the spot. âWei Zhenghao, Zhang Yao, get up and open the door!â
Did they really treat it as their own home? What did he mean by locking the door? To prevent him from entering?
Are they determined to stay here?
Zhang Kun patted for a long time, but no one came to open the door.
However, it woke Li Xu up. She stood at the door and asked, âWhatâs wrong? Why are you shouting so early in the morning?â
âThe door was locked from the inside. I couldnât wake them up no matter how I shouted.â Zhang Kun said.
Li Xu also roughly understood what Zhang Kun was angry about. She comforted him, âYou go to work first. Weâll talk when you come back.â
Li Miao came out with the children.
Seeing this, Zhang Kun couldnât care about anything else. He knocked on the door several times, âWei Zhenghao, come out.â
Even Yuanyuan, who was the furthest away, could hear the sound. She didnât believe that Wei Zhenghao and his wife didnât hear it.
However, the room was still quiet. There was no sound at all.
Li Xu naturally understood that the couple had probably done it on purpose. Otherwise, they wouldnât have locked the door.
She was about to persuade Zhang Kun to go to work when she heard her daughter say, âDad, will Aunt and the others be all right inside? Thereâs a lock-picking shop in front. Letâs open the door and save Aunt!â
Ji Yuanyuan said on purpose. For someone like Wei Zhenghao, they could not show weakness in front of him.
Otherwise, he would only get more and more overboard.
Zhang Kun was reminded by Ji Yuanyuan and also reacted.
âYou guys wait here. Iâll get someone to unlock the door!â He raised his voice.
With that, he deliberately increased his pace and walked downstairs.
When he reached the first floor, he stopped and quietly listened to the sounds above.
However, Wei Zhenghao still didnât open the door.
Zhang Kun knew that his little trick would not work on Wei Zhenghao.
Wei Zhenghao was a man with thousands of schemes, but he didnât use any of them on the right path.
Zhang Kun sneered, turned around, and continued to walk downstairs.
Although he didnât really want to call the locksmith over, there was really a locksmith shop below their house.
It was a shop opened by an old man who usually lived here. Therefore, no matter what time it was, they could always find him.
Zhang Kun went downstairs and soon knocked on the door of the old man.
The old man picked up his tools and followed Zhang Kun upstairs.
Zhang Kun pointed at the lock and said, âPlease open it. No matter what, as long as you can open the door, itâs fine!â
Li Xu pulled his arm and whispered, âAre we really going to do this?â
Zhang Kun waved his hand. âYou donât have to worry about it. Itâs just a lock. If itâs broken, we can just change it!â
The old master was already ready. âItâs not broken. This lock is quite easy to openâ¦â
As they were talking, the door opened from the inside.
The old man shivered and almost fell.
Fortunately, Zhang Kun stood behind the old man and gave him a hand at this critical moment.
âBrother-in-law, what are you doing? Why arc there so many people at the entrance so early in the morning?â Wei Zhenghao pretended to have just woken up.
Zhang Kun sneered. âYou didnât open the door after shouting for a long time. I thought something had happened to you!â
Zhang Kun entered the house in a flash.
Li Xu ordered Li Miao to go home to get the money and hand it to the old man. Then, she followed him into the house.
âI didnât do anything. I wonât take any money!â The old man was a little bewildered.
Li Miao stood behind the three children and said, âMister, please accept it. Iâve troubled you to make this trip!â
Seeing that the family was so aggressive, the old man was afraid that they had family matters to deal with, so he could only take his tools and money and leave in a hurry.
Li Miao stood at the door with his three children, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
After hesitating for a while, she remembered that she still had to open the shop later, so she turned around and went home to prepare breakfast.
Li Miao had worked a lot at home since he was young, so it was easy for him to make breakfast.
She was afraid the noise would scare the children, so she brought the three children home.
In Zhang Kunâs house, Wei Zhenghao stood beside Zhang Kun with a smile. Zhang Yao and Wenwen were in the bedroom, helping Wenwen put on her clothes.
âBig brother, we were in a deep sleep and didnât hear you just now.â Wei Zhenghao explained with a smile.
Zhang Kun didnât say anything. He looked at Zhang Yao and said, âCome out. Letâs have a good chat.â
Zhang Yao was stunned for a moment, but she quickly helped Wenwen put on her clothes and brought her out.
When Zhang Yao and Wenwen arrived, Zhang Kun looked at Wenwen and asked, âWenwen, did you hear the knocking? Tell me the truth. Good children donât lie.â
âBig Brother, we really didnât hear you. Donât scare the child!â Wei Zhenghao said.
However, Zhang Kun did not seem to hear her. He just looked at Wenwen and said in a very gentle tone, âWenwen is a good girl. Sheâll definitely tell the truth. Iâll buy you some good food later and reward you for telling the truth, okay?â
Wenwen grabbed Zhang Yaoâs hand. Her voice was soft but firm, âI heard it, but Dad wonât let me open the door.â
Zhang Kun laughed. âUncle and your Mom have something to talk about. Can you go next door and play with Sister Yuanyuan?â he said.
Wenwen nodded. Li Xu quickly said, âIâll send her over. You guys talk!â
Li Xu wanted to avoid suspicion, but Zhang Kun said, âWeâre husband and wife. Thereâs nothing you canât listen to. Send the child away and come back. There are some things I need to discuss with you.â
When Li Xu heard this, she hesitated. After a while, she nodded and went up to hold Wenwenâs hand.
After sending Wenwen to the next room, Li Xu came back.
The door closed, and the four of them confronted each other. The atmosphere was very awkward.
After a long silence, Zhang Kun finally said, âZhang Yao, itâs not like our family canât support you if you get a divorce!â
