"Luo Zhiming, don’t act like you’re the only one who has made sacrifices, I have too," Xu He turned her head to look at Luo Zhiming, sneering coldly, "I’ve been with you for so long, I deserve all those things."
After saying that, Xu He gave Luo Zhiming, who was kneeling on the ground, a disdainful glance and walked away with her belongings.
Looking at Xu He’s departing figure and then at the completely empty room, Luo Zhiming’s heart turned ice-cold.
He was bewildered, his mind in chaotic turmoil, unsure of what to do next.
He silently crawled onto the bed, buried his head under the blanket, and didn’t think about the future, just taking one day at a ti.
But misfortune never cos alone. Less than half an hour after Xu He left, the landlord ca to collect the rent.
Seeing that Luo Zhiming couldn’t pay, the landlord didn’t show him any rcy. He threw out Luo Zhiming’s belongings and locked the door.
Now, Luo Zhiming truly had nowhere to turn. He didn’t have a single penny on him, making it a problem to even eat or find a place to stay.
He thought of going back to his hotown, but he couldn’t even scrape together enough money for a bus ticket.
He thought of seeking help from Luo Zhiyong or Luo Honglan, but he knew all too well that his relationship with Luo Zhiyong had soured long ago. Moreover, for Xu He’s sake, he had almost hard Fang Pingying and Luo Zhiyong’s two children. If he encountered Luo Zhiyong, it would be a rcy if Luo Zhiyong didn’t kill him.
Although his family didn’t know these matters temporarily, Luo Zhiming was very clear about them in his heart.
As for going to Luo Honglan, he didn’t dare. He was afraid Luo Honglan would tell Luo Zhiyong about him.
Therefore, he dragged his suitcase and spent several days under the bridges of the provincial city or in desolate parks, eating discarded food from the backs of restaurants when he was hungry.
This was a tip given by soone he t sleeping under the bridge, and at least he hadn’t starved to death.
But this kind of life, for Luo Zhiming, was truly worse than death.
He used to be soone who liked to flaunt his wealth, always acting high and mighty in front of others. Now he was worse off than a beggar, thinking death might be better.
Dead? Dead?
Thinking this, Luo Zhiming suddenly felt his present life was no longer worth living.
As Xu He had said, he had no money, no house, no job, and what Xu He didn’t know was that he, Luo Zhiming, wasn’t even a real man.
In this era, a man who cannot father children is not considered a real man.
Thinking this, Luo Zhiming felt perhaps death was better than living.
Living, he would have to keep enduring like this. He had endured a few days, but if it was always like this; no food, no place to live, penniless, he couldn’t endure much longer.
Death might resolve everything, reincarnation might give him a chance to live again. He hoped in the next life he could be reborn into a wealthier family where he could be born into great riches.
The more he thought, the less courage Luo Zhiming had to continue living.
He went to a very famous bridge in the center of the provincial city, climbed onto the railing, and decided to jump and end it all, indifferent to everything.
But in the broad daylight, the bridge was bustling with people. As soon as he climbed up, he was seen.
As he prepared to jump, many people ca to pull him back.
"Young man, what troubles are you facing that you can’t cope with? Why would you want to jump into the river on such a fine day?"
"Yes, what problem can’t be solved, must he die?"
The people around quickly called the nearby police to co.
Two police officers arrived and imdiately pulled Luo Zhiming down from the bridge.
At that mont, one of the police officers asked Luo Zhiming, "Where’s your family? Let call them for you so they can co over, okay?"
Although Luo Zhiming wanted to die, when he actually climbed onto the bridge and saw how high it was, he didn’t dare to jump. When the police officer pulled, he imdiately ca down.
But after coming down, he didn’t know what to do next, and began regretting not jumping earlier. He cried and tried to shake off the police and climb back onto the bridge, "Stop pulling , my family has long stopped caring about , there’s no point in living."
When the people around and the police heard this, they really thought his family didn’t care for him, and many imdiately condemned his family.
One of the police officers also frowned, looking serious, and asked Luo Zhiming, "What kind of family do you have? Tell , I’ll go scold them. How can they not care about their own family mber?"
"Yes, whatever request you have, tell this officer, he can help you," the people around also urged him.
Luo Zhiyong was still hesitant and muttered, "I..."
Upon hearing this, the police officer deliberately scared him, "Tell your family’s phone number quickly or I’ll take you to the police station, we can find it there too."
Luo Zhiming had no choice, and being scared of going to the police station, he gave the police Fang Pingying’s phone number.
At that mont, juzi, who was at the clothing store, received the call. She was confused and didn’t understand what was going on, but since she knew Luo Zhiming’s na, she went to Luo Honglan’s shop and told her and Yu’er about it.
Juzi didn’t know anything, only said that the police called them to go to the police station to pick soone up.
Luo Honglan’s first reaction was that Luo Zhiming had caused so trouble outside and had been caught by the police.
She trembled with fear and imdiately went ho.
After opening the door, Zhou Yuni and Luo Cuilan, mother and daughter, were arguing inside.
Mainly it was about going to the hospital for a check-up. Zhou Yuni originally thought that Luo Zhiyong would pay for Luo Cuilan’s treatnt, but since Luo Zhiyong clearly refused, she naturally wouldn’t pay much either, thus she asked Luo Cuilan to bring her own money.
Luo Cuilan had actually brought so money with her this ti, but she aid to spend as less as possible and insisted on Zhou Yuni paying.
So, unable to quarrel with others, the mother and daughter were arguing at ho.
As Luo Honglan opened the door, she hurriedly shouted, "Mom, big sister, stop arguing, soone just called, saying that second brother has been taken to the police station."
Zhou Yuni paused, as if she couldn’t believe what she heard, and frowned at Luo Honglan, "What, who has been taken to the police station?"
"Second brother," Luo Honglan repeated, "It was very clear, they said it was Luo Zhiming."
Upon hearing the words ’police station’, Zhou Yuni also beca sowhat stamred, "What, for what reason?"
Hearing this, Luo Cuilan coldly laughed, "Hmph, what else could that brat be doing, probably ssing around with so woman outside and got caught by her family, demanding him to pay up. It’s not the first ti."
"Shut up," Zhou Yuni glared at her fiercely.
Luo Cuilan didn’t say much more, just pursed her lips, "Then you go to the police station and see, you’ll see if I am right or not."
Zhou Yuni nodded, and imdiately called Luo Cuilan and Luo Honglan, "Let’s go, we’re going to the police station to bring your second brother back." (To be continued.
