Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s
Chapter 880 Money Can’t Buy Foresight

"You’re right about that."

"Speaking of which, I heard from my spouse that Deputy Director Luo’s daughter skipped two grades in university, and she already started interning with the senior professors at the hospital early on. I heard she’s even been on the operating table already, quite remarkable."

"All the Luo’s kids are impressive, there are quite a number of people in the family courtyard keeping an eye on Siyuan’s marriage prospects."

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

After washing her hands and thanking the aunt, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen greeted everyone before leaving.

After they left the family courtyard and rode on for a while, Lu Yichen coughed lightly, "Qiao Bao, can we discuss something?"

Luo Qiao knew what he was going to say, she wrapped her arms around Lu Yichen’s waist and leaned her head against his back, "Brother Chen, I know what you want to say, but our professions mean we can’t just be bystanders.

Just now, you also ran over without a second thought once you heard someone cry for help, it’s the same for me. I know you’re worried about situations where we can’t save someone or having to deal with unreasonable family members, but I can’t just watch and do nothing."

Lu Yichen also realized that he might be worrying too much, "Alright, I won’t talk about it anymore. From now on, just take care of yourself, and if you’re not sure about a situation, don’t take any risks. Not everyone understands courtesy or right from wrong."

Luo Qiao, leaning on Lu Yichen’s back, whispered, "I’ll remember, Brother Chen."

In the Ning Family of Capital City, Old Lady Ning looked at her son across the room, "Still no news?"

Ning Ziping let out a sigh, "I’ve had people inquire for a long time. The villagers all say the child was adopted, but no one knows exactly who took him."

Old Lady Ning pondered for a long time, "I can’t believe that the village cadres really don’t know who the person is. Could it be that they’re deliberately not telling, or was there some agreement reached when the child was adopted?

It’s not right for me to say this, but your former in-laws from the Yue Family really aren’t decent people. They took our Ning Family’s money and got Sun Mei’s compensation, yet they actually didn’t take care of the child, that’s just too much."

Ning Ziping sighed, "We are also to blame. Back then, when the village called, we should have gone to pick up the child instead of refusing."

Old Lady Ning frowned deeply, "Money can’t buy hindsight, what’s the use of talking about it now? If all else fails, you should go back to Qingshan Village yourself, give some gifts to those who know something; I don’t believe they can keep silent then."

Ning Ziping nodded, "That’s all we can do. I’ll find some time to go back in a few days."

In the bedroom, Ning Ziping’s current wife Wang Hailan was feeling restless and anxious after overhearing the conversation between her mother-in-law and her husband in the living room.

Back when she was young and naive, she got pregnant before marriage. To avoid being discovered, she hastily seduced Ning Ziping. But then, fearful of the pregnancy being discovered, she took the opportunity to deliberately cause a miscarriage. Little did she know, it would damage her body, rendering her unable to conceive again. She had sought medical advice for years.

Now, she was incredibly conflicted. She knew she couldn’t have children, and the best outcome would be to take the child back. However, the child was now thirteen years old with his own thoughts, and she feared she wouldn’t have easy days if he returned.

The only thing that made her happy was that the child hadn’t been found yet, so she could enjoy a few more days of peace.

When Ning Ziping came in, he found his wife daydreaming, "Lan, what are you thinking about?"

Wang Hailan threw herself into Ning Ziping’s arms, "I’m thinking, why can’t the heavens bless us with a child, even a daughter would be fine. I feel terrible for not being able to bear you a son or daughter."

Recalling the advice her childhood friend had given her, she suddenly wanted to take a gamble, "Ziping, why don’t we divorce? You could find another wife, and maybe she could give you a child."

Ning Ziping was taken aback by his wife’s suggestion and felt moved, pulling her close, "What nonsense are you talking about? You know what the doctor said, it’s not only you with issues, I also have them. How can I blame you?

Besides, it’s just that we temporarily don’t know where the child is. Once found, we’ll bring him back and raise him well, then we will have a future generation. So don’t talk like that again; I can’t live without you, and you know that."

Thinking it wouldn’t be too bad not to have children, and considering Wang Hailan’s actions in bed, Ning Ziping realized he really didn’t want to divorce her. After all, he already had a son, and he intended to acknowledge him sooner or later.

Feeling aroused, he quickly closed the bedroom door and turned off the lights, urgently carrying her to bed without a second thought about where his son might be.

Wang Hailan smirked in the darkness. So what if they had no children? She still had Ning Ziping wrapped around her finger. As long as she tended to him well, he wouldn’t look elsewhere.

Hence, to ensure that Ning Ziping wouldn’t leave her, she became even more passionate and enthusiastic...
