Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse-Chapter 262 - 258: Lin Yingxia Must Be Lying

——————

When Lin Yingxia and Ding Wangzhong were still anxiously uncertain about what to do, who knew that Zhu Yilai would coincidentally come home on leave for a few days, providing Lin Yingxia with a ’legitimate’ reason for her pregnancy!

This finally allowed the two, who were facing this kind of situation for the first time, to breathe a sigh of relief.

It’s not that Lin Yingxia wanted to cuckold her husband, but she had no other choice.

Back then, in the countryside, there were simply no places to get an abortion, and if one had to resort to abortion, one could only engineer an accident!

Who knows what happened later, but she somehow found the ruthless heart to team up with outsiders, and indeed made her publicly-six-months, but actually-nine-months pregnant fetus ’prematurely born’!

Ding Wangzhong, knowing Lin Yingxia’s temperament and understanding, felt that it was more likely that his own child had been secretly sold!

Back then, indeed, many people bore children indiscriminately and, unable to support them, would sell them off! However, that was generally female infants; rural areas didn’t favor female infants.

Lin Yingxia’s situation was special at the time; she must have dared not let anyone know that she actually gave birth to a full-term child before selling it!

But she kept avoiding facing him; she didn’t even dare come out to clarify with him! It dragged on for over half a year like this!

Speaking of which, he indeed had to bear some of the responsibility, as he disappeared suddenly for over half a year. She was left alone at home, fraught with fear and anxiety, inevitably becoming frightened and imagining too much, brewing mishaps.

Initially, he was so eager to make money that he left in haste—

The reason was that he was following his relatives on long hauls to deliver goods, working joyfully and diligently outside to earn money to support the family. He was even thinking, once his son was born, he would let her divorce so he could formally marry her!

Unfortunately, when he finished and returned home, Lin Yingxia had already prematurely given birth and had briskly gone with the military!

Lin Yingxia feigned toughness and panic; tilting her head just then hit right on Ding Wangzhong’s emotional spot, he roared excitedly:

"Xiao Xia, stop messing around, where is the child? Don’t think that by making up a premature birth you can fool anyone. Who doesn’t know that you were almost due? And I am your man, how could I not know how many months along you were? Tell me, where is the child?"

Ding Wangzhong was a traditional man, and he was very much looking forward to the child in Lin Yingxia’s belly!

In the past, if it weren’t for his family being really poor, and having a scar on his face which made it hard to find a wife, he wouldn’t have secretly started a relationship with the lonely and distressed Lin Yingxia after marriage!

Moreover, the scar on his face was received years ago while protecting Lin Yingxia, making their relationship especially unique.

Upon knowing that Lin Yingxia felt lonely and distressed alone in her empty home, the two of them hooked up directly.

Previously, he said in front of the military that there was a relationship and financial dispute with Lin Yingxia, just to force her to confront him.

"You’re overthinking it, there is no child!" Lin Yingxia was equally furious inside, she wondered why this man relentlessly clung to her original life, it turns out this was the crux!

"Xiao Xia, what can I do for you to forgive me, I really didn’t want to leave you, I was going to make money, I already own a truck now, I can support you and the child, tell me, where is the child? We can take the child and go home!"

It was just a delay of slightly half a year than planned to return home, and when he returned, he heard that Lin Yingxia had prematurely given birth and followed the military — if Lin Yingxia was in front of him at that moment, he really felt like strangling her.

Ding Wangzhong looked at Lin Yingxia’s cold face, becoming even more puzzled in his heart; was it really a premature birth? But even if it was, where was the body of the child?

He had gone to dig up the mass graves, but found no infant corpses as the rumors suggested!

So, Lin Yingxia must have lied.

Lin Yingxia looked at him feigning surprise; after all, he had mentioned he now owned a truck, and that was not something ordinary people could have! The commerce industry hadn’t even developed yet, she wondered what this decadent man did before in order to procure a truck with money?

Of course, Ding Wangzhong wouldn’t tell her that the truck was actually borrowed. After all, even if he really had the capability, he couldn’t possibly have obtained a truck in less than a year.

This car wasn’t his at all, but belonged to a relative of his family. His relative had been lax in handling matters and got schemed against, and had long since fled, while his family was completely unaware that he owned a truck.

Originally, the truck wasn’t purchased under the relative’s name, but under the name of his lover, who was mistakenly under the impression that the truck was registered in her name.

So, the moment his relative fled, he took off with all the family’s current assets and drove away.

Ding Wangzhong tried to muddle through talking to Lin Yingxia, but he was caught off guard as she suddenly shed tears, whispering softly, "Ding Wangzhong, the child is really gone, I’ve already missed one chance. Initially, he was willing to forgive me, I, I want to live a good life with him, forget about me!"

Before he could react, she ran away.

"You—" Ding Wangzhong cursed silently, watching Lin Yingxia slip away into the military’s side door, wondering to himself: When did this woman become so slippery? Did she really go on a diet?

Ding Wangzhong stared at the military’s entrance, truly unwilling to just leave like this, but she had already gone back, and guarding here wasn’t going to make her come out again.

He had been waiting for half a year and had come to realize that Lin Yingxia truly wanted to get rid of him!

However, how could Ding Wangzhong give up without finding the whereabouts of the child?

But, he did not expect that once he left the military, someone followed him, and the person was sneaky, tracking him all the way to his home—

"Who are you?" Ding Wangzhong was terrified by the sudden appearance of Ghost Face in front of him.

However, the other person was not one to show mercy. With a strong grip, his hands throttled Ding Wangzhong’s neck, making it impossible for him to make a sound!

In reality, even if he did make a sound, it would be useless, because this dilapidated house midway up the mountain was the only place he lived, and getting the villagers down the mountain to hear him was not an easy task!

Especially when it was clear that the person had malicious intent.

While he was in shock, the other person had already pinned down his arms—

"Ah—" Ding Wangzhong tried to scream, but his neck was still tightly clasped, and he couldn’t make any sound; instead, due to the lack of air, his face started turning purple from oxygen deprivation!

"Want to stay alive?"

Ding Wangzhong nodded strenuously.

The other party seemed to think this was enough, and gently loosened his grip, increasing the distance between them.

"Cough, ugh..." Ding Wangzhong weakly collapsed onto the ground, followed by a painful cough, the pain in his arms making his head clearer, yet he refrained from yelling and instead stared warily, enduring with clenched teeth.

"Good, if you behave, I could tell you where the child has gone?"

"Do you know where my son is?" Ding Wangzhong asked anxiously through gritted teeth.

"Of course, as long as you obey, you’ll know," Ghost Face said softly, their voice chilling and indecipherable between male and female.

"Fine, I’ll listen to you!" Ding Wangzhong, with his heart and eyes full of thoughts of his own child, was obviously swayed by the temptation of Ghost Face, and he nodded immediately without a second thought.

Just with this person following him silently back home, he knew he couldn’t escape!

Ding Wangzhong was dripping with cold sweat, and in this weather, he felt as if he was smothering at the mouth of a volcano, unbearably stifling and painful in his chest.

"Good, stay at home and take care of yourself. Without me personally setting your bones, you’ll never be at ease for the rest of your life..." Saying this, Ghost Face stared at Ding Wangzhong with dark eyes, ominously whispering.

As Ding Wangzhong followed his gaze to his own arms, which were so painful he was numb, just as he thought to plead for mercy, he looked up, and there was nobody there anymore.

"Ghost, Ghost?" Entering the moment, as they came and went without a trace, he, he simply didn’t notice how they disappeared!
