Liu Cuie and Jiang Jincheng were about to leave when they seemed to realize that what they were doing was a bit too inhumane.

Liu Cuie turned around when she was almost at the office door, looking at Jiang Tiecheng with a warm expression and saying,

"Eldest son, don't blame your mother."

Mother had no other choice; she was a widow and had to support a large family.

"You should live a good life from now on, and your mother won't be a burden to you."

The women's director couldn't hold back any longer and said coldly,

"How dare you say that? Do you even deserve to be a mother?"

If you're going to leave, then leave quickly. Don't pretend here, as if anyone wants to see your face.

She raised her son for 20 years, and now she just abandons him; money is more important than her.

This is the first time I've ever seen someone so shameless.

Jiang Tiecheng stopped the women's director.

"Forget it, Director."

I'm not their biological child after all. What can I, an adopted child, possibly ask for?

"She's already done more than enough by raising me; consider it fulfilling our mother-child bond."

Everyone was even more surprised to learn that Jiang Tiecheng had been found.

Liu Cuie and Jiang Jincheng fled in dismay amidst the contemptuous gazes of the crowd.

The two shamelessly went back to pack their luggage before leaving.

Before leaving, Liu Cuie even took the radio from the house, but she couldn't move the other large items.

Even if they could move it, they were afraid that others would see it and criticize them.

Fearing that Jiang Tiecheng might not keep his word and they wouldn't be able to buy train tickets that day, the two of them waited at the train station until they could buy tickets.

Amidst the sympathetic gazes of the crowd, Jiang Tiecheng packed his belongings and returned to the courtyard.

I calmly prepared three dishes and a soup.

A glass of wine was spilled on the ground.

This way, I can say that I have done right by my adoptive mother, Liu Cuie.

After all, when the money was handed over, he personally saw on the system panel displayed on the money that it would be in the car in 18 hours.

The victim, stabbed by the thief, was soaked in blood.

The identity of this victim is self-evident.

Whether they live to spend the money they receive is their own business.

It wasn't until after 10 a.m. the next day that Liu Cuie and Jiang Jincheng finally boarded the train.

The two of them bought hard seats, and not seats that were next to each other.

With one on the left and one on the right, Liu Cuie carried 3,000 yuan on her person, her heart pounding.

They were terrified of encountering thieves.

He covered his pockets with his hands as if he were being robbed.

Jiang Jincheng pulled Liu Cuie to the toilet.

"Mom, look at you, you're not presentable. People can tell at a glance what important things you're carrying in your pockets."

Aren't you deliberately inviting thieves?

"Give me the money back; you're bound to lose it sooner or later."

Jiang Jincheng naturally had his own agenda; he was eager to get his hands on the money.

Once back home, the money went into Liu Cuie's pocket, so how much could she possibly keep?

It's safer to keep it in your own hands.

He now understands that everyone in the family is not united; they all live their own lives and no one cares about anyone else.

If he doesn't care about himself, he might not even be able to find a wife in the future.

Now that I've lost my job, if I can't find a wife, am I destined to be a bachelor for the rest of my life?

Liu Cuie nervously clutched her pocket and refused.

"No need, I'll keep it myself."

Liu Cuie wasn't stupid; her heart had long been chilled by her second son's behavior ever since he started working.

She finally understood that none of her children could be relied on, and this 3,000 yuan would be her financial security for her retirement.

We absolutely cannot let the second son trick us out of our money again.

"You'll really attract thieves if you act like this."

I don't want your money; I'm just keeping it for you.

When Liu Cuihua saw the strange man peeking at them from the restroom, she felt a little nervous.

If we really run into a thief and get everything stolen, that would be terrible.

"Alright then, let's split it in half. That way, if something happens, the other person will be safe too."

Liu Cuie found an excuse and stuffed half a banknote into Jiang Jincheng's hand.

Just then, the toilet door was pushed open, and the man outside couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw the money in their hands.

What are you doing?

Jiang Jincheng hurriedly stuffed the money into the inside of his clothes and forcefully pushed the man out the door.

Why are you pushing open the toilet door?

"Are you out of your mind? How am I supposed to get into the bathroom if I don't push the door open?"

Why are you two standing in the toilet instead of using it?

Isn't this bullying? Couldn't you find somewhere else to count your money?

This statement drew countless subtle glances from those around them.

Liu Cuie hurriedly stuffed the money back into her inner pocket.

He tied the pocket securely with a safety pin before patting it and stepping out.

The mother and son, each harboring their own secrets, sat in their respective seats, eyes closed, trying to rest.

As the swaying train swayed and the night wore on, everyone became drowsy.

Liu Cuie suddenly felt someone touching her pocket. She woke up with a start.

He grabbed the other person's wrist in one swift motion.

The lights in the carriage were dim, and everyone was asleep. Apart from the occasional cry of a child, the carriage was mostly filled with the sound of people snoring.

Liu Cuie grabbed the other man's wrist, about to scream, when she met his fierce eyes.

Suddenly my stomach hurts!

Liu Cuie looked down and saw a knife stuck in her stomach.

The man covered her mouth with one hand, forcefully pulled out the knife, and then stabbed her in again.

Liu Cuie's head was buzzing from the pain.

She tried to break free from the man's grasp, but his third stab pierced her, and Liu Cuie's vision went black as she lost consciousness completely.

The money she had hidden in her pocket was slashed through her clothes with a dagger by the man, who then snatched it away.

The pockets were stained with bright red blood.

Meanwhile, when Jiang Jincheng went to the toilet, he opened the door and was immediately pushed inside from behind, his mouth covered.

His mouth was gagged, and he was brutally beaten. Jiang Jincheng's arms and legs were broken.

The money in his pocket was taken, and he was thrown directly onto the latrine.

When the train arrived at its destination, several dark figures quickly jumped off.

Passengers who got off the train were surprised to find Liu Cuie lying on her seat, covered in blood.

Jiang Jincheng and Liu Cuie were taken to the hospital; this was a major train theft case.

Liu Cuie was stabbed three times, each stab fatal and damaging her internal organs. Although she survived after being rescued, she was spared death.

However, Liu Cuie injured her lumbar nerves and became completely paralyzed from the waist down.

Jiang Jincheng's arms and legs were broken by the other party.

When the doctor treated him, he predicted that even if he recovered, he would probably be left with a limp.

The 3,000 yuan that the two lost has nowhere to be found.
