Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 843

Chapter 843: The Real Him
He couldn’t let his father-in-law and mother-in-law know about Gou Dan and Gao Shun. Otherwise, his father-in-law would definitely make his life worse than death.

Although Chen Bo didn’t know much about Gou Dan, he knew his ex-wife’s personality. She will definitely find him in the next few days. They could not have committed these crimes for no reason.

As a greedy and jealous person, there is a high possibility that Gao Shun and Gou Dan will ask him for money.

At this moment, he really hoped that they were only after money and nothing else. As long as what they wanted was money, he was sure he was able to send them away. But if they want something else, things can get out of hand.

Just as he was deep in thought, Father Wei contacted his friends at the police station. Looking back, he saw his son-in-law’s face looked even uglier than before.

Now, not only was his face pale, but his body was trembling. When he looked into his eyes, he saw fear, worry, and unease.

If he hated Chen Bo because he suspected that Chen Bo was marrying his daughter in an attempt to get some benefits from the Wei family before, then at this moment, he finally admitted that this son-in-law did love his daughter.

After letting out a long sigh, he walked to his son-in-law and patted his shoulder, “Son-in-law, I have contacted the police chief. With the help of the police, we will definitely find Mingze and Yuze.”

Hearing this, Chen Bo raised his head and said with red eyes, “Father, I’m sorry. It’s all because of me, I failed to protect them.”

Father Wei sighed and said, “Don’t blame yourself. We don’t know who did it, and we don’t know what they want. Because of our work, we are bound to offend others. Now, just leave the matter of finding the child to the police, let’s focus on taking care of Zhiying.”

Hearing this, Mother Wei added, “Son-in-law, listen to your father-in-law. At this time, Zhiying will need you more. So, you must take care of yourself. Don’t let her know about the children.”

Lowering his head, Chen Bo’s eyes flashed and he said, “Father, mother, I understand.”

Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Father Wei and Mother Wei could only sigh and wait for their daughter to come out of the operating room.

As for what Chen Bo was thinking, no one knew.

Early the next morning, Gou Dan asked his mother to take care of Chen Mingze and Chen Yuze, while he went to find Wei Zhiying’s information.

He looked forward to hearing the news of her death. But as he walked around the park, he heard people talking about a thief who had attacked a woman, who was still unconscious in the hospital. In addition to robbing the women, the thieves also kidnapped the victims’ children.

When Gou Dan heard this, his face turned cold and murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He thought stabbing her in the kidney would kill her. Unexpectedly, she survived. He should have stabbed her a few more times.

Now that she had a chance to wake up, the odds were stacked against him. He has to get the money and leave the city before she wakes up or he might end up in jail or worse, be sentenced to death.

After making his decision, he walked to the hospital. He did not ask the nurse for Wei Zhiying’s room number, but walked aimlessly, looking for her from room to room.

When he reached the third floor, he heard a familiar voice. Hearing this voice, he was stunned and quickly hid behind the wall.

“Father, Mother, I will take care of Zhiying. Both of you two should go back and rest. If Zhiying wakes up, I will let you two know.”

Hearing his father’s gentle words, Gou Dan clenched his fists tightly. His father always treated him and his mother with indifference, and he never spoke to him in this tone.

Every time he returned to Xie village, he would treat him coldly and would scold him whenever something happened. Apart from frowning and scolding him, his father never showed any other expression, let alone smiled or spoke softly.

He had always thought this was his father’s character but he was wrong. It turned out that his father just looked down on him and had planned to abandon him a long time ago.

Gou Dan’s clenched fists were bleeding from how much strength he used. Only in pain could he resist the urge to rush to his father and demand an explanation.

“Father, since you are ruthless, you can’t blame me for being heartless,” he whispered coldly.

Chen Bo didn’t know that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation. He was immersed in his behavior of being a filial son-in-law and loving husband.

After some persuasion, Father Wei and Mother Wei finally agreed to go back and rest. When he was alone, Chen Bo sat on the chair beside the bed and looked at Wei Zhiying.

In the beginning, he approached her in order to use her as a tool to get close to Father Wei. After two years of courtship, he finally got her to fall in love with him and agree to marry him.

He still clearly remembers how he felt at that time. Instead of feeling joy or satisfaction at getting what he wanted, he felt disgust and hatred.

He resented that Wei Zhiying liked the character he created based on Li Chenze’s behavior, and hated that the Li brothers were superior in every aspect compared to him.

He doesn’t understand why people with good backgrounds look down on the real him. But those who like the real him are those with low lifes. Is he destined to become an ordinary person in this life?

To this day, he still cannot show his true self when he is with Wei Zhiying or their sons.
