The guilt and pain were indescribable.

Li Xia hated hearing things like "little brat" the most. She said, "If you don't get out of here, I'll call the police right now."

Li Gang got angry too. He looked around at his sister's suddenly spacious living room, with its foam sofa and TV cabinet, and then noticed the electric fan and telephone on her table. He was filled with jealousy and hatred. He shook his clothes and said, "No wonder people say you can't raise other people's children. They'll all grow up to be ungrateful wretches. Li Xia, you bitch, I advise you not to be so smug. I know all about how Li Da the Cripple made money to buy that little tower with the cover of his Xiali car. I can make money too."

"Say one more word and I'll kill you!" Li Xia roared.

Li Gang grinned and suddenly grabbed Li Xia's collar: "In less than two years, I can earn enough to buy three houses like this. As for you, who knows when Chen Ke will die? Once you become a widow, do you think Sanmao Factory will kick you out?"

As he went downstairs, he stabbed his sister in the heart: "You slut, your inability to have children is your own fault!"

Li Xia chased after him with a knife in hand, and Li Gang also ran away as fast as he could.

...

Let's go back to Chen Rou's side.

Although she didn't have to go to work, she was never idle. She would go out and get all sweaty. When she got home, she went straight to the bathroom, took a shower, and then dried her hair and applied skincare products in the bathroom.

Seeing that Sister Chang had put a nightgown in the bathroom cabinet instead of her usual T-shirt and shorts, she hesitated for a moment because she wasn't used to wearing it. But it was too late at night to rummage through the cabinet again, so she put on the bathrobe, buttoned it up, and lay down on the bed.

It was only when Chen Rou lay down that she realized there was someone else in the bed.

Her habit was to step back and grab her weapon, but then she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have invited Nie Zhao, so she quickly put the lamp down again.

She saw that he was asleep, so she tiptoed to the other side of the bed, got into bed, pulled back the covers, and turned off the light.

But the lights had just been turned off when Nie Zhao asked, "Is it almost dawn?"

Chen Rou moved to the side a little further and said softly, "It's still early, you can continue sleeping."

She always had great patience with her fragile husband, after all, although he was weak and delicate, he was good at making money.

As if on cue, Nie Zhao coughed and sighed, "Fine." Then he sighed again.

Chen Rou didn't know if he was physically uncomfortable or emotionally uncomfortable, but she reached out and patted him.

Nie Zhao's voice was hoarse: "Why don't you go back to the mainland the day after tomorrow? I'll go with you."

Chen Rou didn't embarrass Nie Zhao in front of Nie Han, but she doesn't want to take Nie Zhao with her when she returns to the mainland.

As Nie Rong said, although trade between the two places had resumed and Hong Kong merchants could make a lot of money doing business across the border due to the low labor costs and other low-cost conditions on the mainland, there were always some white people who did not want to return to Hong Kong who would cause trouble. It would be too dangerous for someone like Nie Zhao to cross the border to the mainland.

So Chen Rou said, "For convenience, I'll bring Ahan, so you don't need to go."

Nie Zhao roughly understood his wife's intention: to turn the wool mill into Li Xia's private property. Because Li Xia was a bit slow and didn't know how to do business, she had even written a very detailed tutorial on converting public property into private property. Nie Zhao had read it and thought it was pretty good, but he had specifically asked someone from the mainland military to help him check the mainland's policies. He knew that there was a fatal flaw in Chen Rou's foolproof tutorial, and she would definitely have to ask him for help. At that time, she would have to invite him over.

Let's leave that aside for now, since his goal tonight isn't just to accompany his wife back to the mainland.

Boss Nie continued to play the emotional card.

She added, "When I was little, I had two aunts who were still alive, but they never liked to take me out."

How pitiful! Even his own aunt didn't want to play with him when he was little.

Chen Rou immediately felt a surge of maternal love: "They probably like Nie Yao more, it's okay, you still have me."

Only after she finished speaking did she realize that he was unhappy because she wouldn't take him to the mainland.

Of course, she had to coax her a little. Chen Rou said, "It's not that I don't like taking you with me, it's just that it's inconvenient to do so."

Mr. Nie remained silent, but his breath was filled with grievance. He held his breath and waited for a while. Sure enough, his wife, wearing a silk nightgown, moved over and gently wrapped one of her soft wrists around his chest.

He was only hugged like this once when he was very young and was sick.

He still remembered his mother's withered wrists, and the tenderness with which Chen Rou held her at this moment.

...

Chen Rou's name consists of only the character "Rou," which was given to him by his mother, Han Yuzhu.

When Han Yuzhu was very young, she told Nie Zhao that in all things in this world, gentleness can overcome strength.

He is one of the two big shots in Kowloon, so the word "gentle" suits her best.
