Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 839 - 834: Taking a Gamble

According to Xu He's words and Liu Fengsheng's expression, Fang Pingying easily guessed the use of the pill; it was probably something like an aphrodisiac.

She sneered, no wonder these two managed to get together; their ultimate goal was to separate her and Luo Zhiyong.

They thought that once she took the pill, she would definitely get involved with Liu Fengsheng, leaving no room for her relationship with Luo Zhiyong.

Xu He had been coming up with such despicable ideas all along, but she hadn't realized Liu Fengsheng had also sunk to such a level.

Seeing Fang Pingying hesitate with the pill, Zhou Yunmei became anxious at the side. She might not have guessed the purpose of the pill, but she immediately urged Fang Pingying, "Fang Pingying, didn't you say you wanted to save Haohao? Hurry up and take it; anyway, she said it won't kill you."

Upon hearing this, Fang Pingying suddenly turned and looked at Zhou Yunmei, holding the pill to Zhou Yunmei's lips, smiling slyly, "Why don't you take it? After all, it won't kill anyone; it doesn't matter who takes it."

"I…" Zhou Yunmei was terrified, afraid that the pill might accidentally end up in her mouth. She didn't trust that the pill wouldn't be lethal, so she quickly took a step back.

Seeing this, Fang Pingying sneered, "What, don't dare to take it? Didn't you just speak so grandiosely? Don't forget, this is about saving your only grandson."

At this moment, Zhou Yunmei's tongue became quick again; she scoffed at Fang Pingying, "Fang Pingying, what's going on with you? Didn't you just say at home that you'd do anything to save Haohao? Now, you won't even swallow this little pill. It seems your love for Haohao is real."

"Your love for Haohao is real, here, take it." As Fang Pingying said this, she walked directly towards Zhou Yunmei, pretending to pull her, forcing her to swallow the pill, "Zhou Yunmei, I'm telling you, to prove you truly love Haohao, you must take this today."

Zhou Yunmei was held by Fang Pingying and couldn't move, she covered her mouth with one hand and mumbled, "I won't take it, I won't."

Yet Fang Pingying did not let her go, persistently forcing her to take the pill.

Seeing the two of them like this, Liu Fengsheng felt something was off and called out, "You guys…"

"Hold on, let them fight it out." Xu He, watching the two entangle, was quite pleased and laughed maliciously, "Usually, isn't Fang Pingying the one who likes to stand by and watch others fight? Today I'll see how she loses composure."

Upon hearing Xu He's words, Fang Pingying flicked her lips lightly, but in her heart, she was calculating. Luo Zhiyong had followed her here, he was either nearby or searching for Haohao's hiding place.

Moreover, so much time had passed, it was likely that Zhou Guangsheng, along with Captain Huang, should be arriving soon. With so many people looking for Haohao, there was no fear of not finding him.

If she could stall a bit, she might be able to get Haohao out without any cost.

Therefore, although it appeared she was genuinely struggling with Zhou Yunmei, she had her own motives, and since Xu He enjoyed the spectacle, let her watch. She would regret it later.

However, she forgot Xu He enjoys the drama, and there was Liu Fengsheng next to her, whose mind was more meticulous and who truly understands Fang Pingying. He knew Fang Pingying wasn't someone who would confuse priorities in such a situation.

In general, she likely wouldn't get entangled publicly with Zhou Yunmei, now there must be another purpose.

Still, he didn't divulge directly, just cautioned Xu He, "Xu He, don't get carried away watching the drama, lest it delays the main business later."

"Seems you're really impatient." Xu He looked at Liu Fengsheng with a teasing smile, then called out to Fang Pingying, "Alright, Fang Pingying, stop it. Swallow the pill and go with Liu Fengsheng to the back."

Fang Pingying ignored them both, continuing her struggle with Zhou Yunmei.

Seeing this, Xu He noticed something wasn't right, she approached to pull them apart, looking at Fang Pingying, "Fang Pingying, if you delay any longer, Haohao will be taken away."

Being held by Xu He, Fang Pingying couldn't drag it out any longer, she straightened up, her expression becoming extraordinarily serious as she looked at Liu Fengsheng beside her. She hadn't forgotten, it was Liu Fengsheng who exposed her earlier.

By now, Liu Fengsheng's mood had shifted; he no longer felt uneasy, merely saying faintly to Fang Pingying, "Pingying, if you want to save Haohao, come with me."

Fang Pingying looked at him and coldly smiled, suddenly speaking, "Liu Fengsheng, do you remember how you were such a righteous person when we first met? Why have you changed so much now?"

"People always change." When speaking of the past, a trace of regret flashed across Liu Fengsheng's face, "Besides, Pingying, you should understand why I became like this. If you had chosen me back then, you wouldn't have encountered so many issues."

Looking at Liu Fengsheng, Fang Pingying was unwilling to waste any more time with him, she bluntly said, "I'm very grateful I didn't choose you back then, otherwise I might regret it for life."

"In that case, we have nothing more to say." Liu Fengsheng felt his dignity was trampled by her tone, his expression became agitated, no longer bothering to conceal anything, his face contorted even more fiercely than Xu He's. Looking at Fang Pingying, he said, "Swallow the pill, come with me to the back, I really want to see whether after this, you'll still have a chance with Luo Zhiyong."

Seeing Fang Pingying unmoved, Liu Fengsheng urged loudly once more, "Quick, swallow the pill, or don't blame me for being unkind."

By this point, Liu Fengsheng had become ruthless, staring at Fang Pingying with bloodshot eyes, as if if she didn't swallow the pill soon, he would take action.

Fang Pingying definitely wouldn't swallow the pill. Although she had never taken it before, she had seen enough to know that after ingesting it, people couldn't control their will, and she couldn't imagine what kind of scene that would be.

The only mistake Xu He and Liu Fengsheng made was underestimating Fang Pingying's character; if Liu Fengsheng really did something to her, she might truly be unable to continue with Luo Zhiyong. In this respect, she had a cleanliness obsession towards others, and she herself wouldn't accept it under any conditions.

Given this, Fang Pingying decided to take a gamble.

Holding the pill, she saw Xu He beside her, relaxed, watching the argument between her and Liu Fengsheng. That big, laughing mouth was truly an eyesore.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Pingying suddenly made a move, turned around sharply, and fed the pill directly into Xu He's mouth as she laughed joyfully, then forcefully lifted her chin until Xu He swallowed the pill.
