Before leaving, she said, "Mom, I've been back this year, but I won't be back after the Chinese New Year. Qiao Rui doesn't have time."

"Why don't you eat tomorrow if you eat today? It seems that in your eyes, reuniting our family is a task completed.

Mom only sees you once a year, and she's always thinking about you. Can't you spend more time with me?"

Zhao Meiya tried to play the emotional card, but He Xiasheng didn't buy it and calmly packed his clothes.

"Mom, you're not alone at home. My three brothers and sisters are all by your side, as well as your beloved Dongbao. You might get annoyed if I stay away for too long.

Qiao Rui is different. He has no close relationship with his family. I am his only friend. Every day when he comes home, he can’t even have a hot meal. The house is empty. He goes out alone and sleeps alone. That’s pitiful.”

"Go back, go back. Mom and Dad are old, half buried in the earth. We will see each other less and less in the future. You are really cruel. Once we close our eyes, it will be too late for you to regret it."

Zhao Meiya changed her policy and started playing the victim. He Xiasheng turned around to pack the food he was going to take on the train and said, "Qiao Rui's job is so dangerous, with bullets flying everywhere. He might get injured and have to be carried back any day. If I'm not by his side, who would save him at all costs?

Now I dread hearing the news of his death every day, afraid of not being able to see him for the last time, which makes me cherish the time I spent with him even more."

"you--"

Zhao Meiya was so angry that she couldn't speak.

After a brief exchange, He Xiasheng's pace became even more hurried. He decided to go back tonight instead of waiting until tomorrow.

He Ruixue was laughing secretly beside her. Although it was not right to think this way, her love-brain really made her able to restrain her parents' moral kidnapping.
