Zhao Xiuxia hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Lijuan! It’s so hot outside, where are you going! Stop it!"
"Don’t worry about !"
"Daughter, Mom never wanted you to worry about my future. I’ve thought it through. When I can no longer move, you’ll just leave at Sun Chan’s doorstep. I raised her, she should take care of ! I didn’t expect you to care for . You’re my daughter, how could I not want you to be well? But the clear truth is that an arm cannot twist a thigh. Don’t be foolish. Listen to Mom, don’t be foolish."
"Stop rambling!" Sun Lijuan was fed up with her suddenly weak mother: "I must go. I’ve thought it through, this will be the last ti. Whether it’s Gu Junming or the Yang Family, they must arrange a job for . This is for a lifeti. If it works out, my future will be set, if not, then I’ve lost hope. Mom, can you bear seeing bullied in the countryside all my life? I’m only twenty, but I’ve already been worn down to the point of being in my forties! I refuse to live like this forever," she cried out again in grievance.
Seeing her daughter like this, Zhao Xiuxia pondered and felt her daughter had a valid point. No matter what, she had to try.
If a job is successfully arranged now, won’t we avoid waiting for five years?
"Alright! We’ll go to the city, but this ti you need to promise , no cursing or fighting. We have to lower our stance when we go to them, ask them. Just let her arrange your job, that’s enough."
Sun Lijuan’s internal fire flared up and she urgently said, "What does it an to ask? Why should I beg soone like her? If not for that contemptible hoof, how could I be so unfortunate..."
"Daughter! Is it the sa as before now? She’s the Yang Family’s young miss. What are you? Think about your future, even if you have to ask, what does it matter? Once you marry into a good family, won’t you be able to take revenge for all kinds of grievances? Learn to endure! Why don’t you listen to ?" she said while starting to cry.
Seeing her cry, Sun Lijuan couldn’t say anything either and stood aside shedding tears, feeling increasingly suffocated thinking, why am I so unfortunate!
"Mom, don’t cry, I know you’re doing this for my good."
"Daughter, all your commotion will only make Sun Chan more smug. Although we lower our stance, obtaining practical benefits is the most important thing, never be foolish."
Zhao Xiuxia, despite being a widow with many experiences, hasn’t gained much in recent years concerning Sun Chan, but other situations went smoothly without suffering losses. She beca a widow at a young age, village bachelors often caused trouble, but Zhao Xiuxia could always find ways to deal with them, even the village officials gained nothing. She still has so wisdom. Sun Lijuan didn’t want to bow to Sun Chan, but for the sake of her future, she reluctantly agreed to her mother’s request.
In her heart, Sun Lijuan said, Sun Chan, for my future, I’ll endure you for now! Just wait! One day I’ll settle accounts with you!
With that, the two bought tickets and headed straight for X City by train.
Sun Lijuan wore a white polyester shirt, with so pancakes and pickles tucked in her bag, avoiding buns due to the hot weather as they spoil quickly. But pancakes and pickles were too unpalatable, making her look at the beautifully dressed passengers on the train with increasing resentnt!
Just wait, I’ll beco a superior person! I’m not begging Sun Chan! I’m rely using her!
anwhile, Wang Hu also got the news. She had an incident leading to hospitalization back in Shenzhen, and a familiar doctor inford Wang Hu of her injuries and the signs of assault from a gynecological exam then.
Wang Hu’s mind buzzed upon hearing the phone conversation. How could it be clearer now? Bai Fanglan was assaulted during her business trip in Shenzhen and decided quickly to run to Beijing, spending a night with him. In his mory, he wasn’t particularly inclined, but seeing Bai Fanglan proactive, not wanting to embarrass her, they barely had a night as a couple.
Understanding now that Bai Fanglan wasn’t trying to reconcile, but worried about pregnancy, trying to confuse the situation to pass the child off to him.
Wang Hu sat in his office without moving, speechless all day, his internal rage threatening to incinerate him, his face bleak as if stained by ink.
Those around him noticed the abnormal atmosphere, avoiding him, as a low-pressure suffused the office.
Wang Hu suddenly chuckled, realizing his foolishness! How could he trust her! Being fooled by Bai Fanglan for so long!
He could forgive Bai Fanglan for misjudging people, being deceived, but how can she consider passing soone else’s child as his own, thinking it would go unnoticed?
He clenched his fist, gazing outside, contemplating his feelings since marriage and the troubleso life.
With a long sigh, he realized his hope for a peaceful life was rely a delusion.
Long after work ended, he returned ho, now having moved out with Bai Fanglan.
The house wasn’t big, but decent. The furniture simple, yet more lavish than most households.
Entering in, he saw her sleeping on the bed.
The table was a ss with dishes from breakfast and lunch, remnants scattered, and with the sumr heat, the room slled.
Wang Hu slightly frowned, cleaning up silently, as she was always like this.
He was accustod to taking care of her, yet today’s tasks were unusually vexing.
Suppressing fury, he began dinner preparations, steaming rice, cooking tomato scrambled eggs, and smashing a cucumber.
Bai Fanglan awoke coinciding with dinner, smiled at Wang Hu, then washed up to eat.
She comnted while eating, "Stop making only this. The baby needs nutrition. Make so fish, and prepare so lean at, I want dumplings. Do it tomorrow."
Recently treated well by Wang Hu, Bai Fanglan satisfied with their married life, spoke more casually, believing caring for a pregnant wife normal.
Moreover, Wang Hu wasn’t one to dwell on petty matters.
