Huang Li said with a bitter taste in her mouth: "I wanted to choose the second path, but I haven't gotten pregnant in all these years. When I was young, my stomach didn't move at all. Now that I'm older, how can I get pregnant just like that..."

Ye Shuijiang nodded, understanding what his wife meant. He immediately decided to choose the last and most 'pragmatic' path...

"Then let's choose the third path. Let's find a young child to adopt as soon as possible."

Huang Li couldn't explain how she felt: "Should I tell Xiaowei about this?"

Ye Shuijiang: "Let's find the child first. When we find him, tell Xiaowei. Anyway, Xiaowei doesn't have time to take care of her family's affairs right now."

"She's not thinking straight right now. It would be bad if she starts to think too much and gets stuck in a rut if we tell her early on."

Ye Shuijiang said that Ye Wei's mind was not clear now, but in the eyes of others, Ye Wei's mind was frighteningly "clear".

No one knew how Ye Wei sneaked out of the hospital wearing a hospital gown. Everyone only knew that it was like a bolt from the blue. If Ye Wei hadn't taken action, it would have been fine. But when she did, she delivered a powerful blow!

At that time, Su Lixuan was sitting with Sheng Yan at a shoe repair stall on the street to have their shoes repaired.

It was said that Sheng Yan's pair of calfskin shoes, which she had asked someone to bring back from Hai City and which she was reluctant to wear even in summer, were destroyed by the naughty kid.

Her nephew used the heel of his shoe as a hammer to crack a walnut. Not only did he not smash the heel into pieces, but at least it was so broken that it was unbearable to look at.

Before the repair, Su Lixuan felt that the poor heel was shaky, probably because it was broken while cracking walnuts.

Broken, but not completely.

Sitting on the stool, Sheng Yan watched the master ruthlessly nailing her heels, and she felt so distressed that tears were about to come out.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll beat that little bastard to death when I get back!"

The hatred of breaking off the heel is irreconcilable.

Even if they are cousins, it’s not allowed!

Su Lixuan patted Sheng Yan's shoulder sympathetically. Just as she was about to say something comforting to see if she could save the naughty child's life, she heard a loud and noisy commotion not far away.

"What happened over there?"

Sheng Yan, who was originally immersed in sadness, saw that there was something exciting to watch, and her grief was instantly swept away. She stretched her neck and looked around intently.

Su Lixuan: "..." Okay, gossipy as she is, she overestimated the importance of those calfskin shoes in Sheng Yan's heart.

The naughty child’s life can be saved.

She was still teasing Sheng Yan in her heart, but a voice that sounded familiar came faintly from the other side.

No.

To be more precise, it was a crying sound that sounded particularly familiar to her...

While he was wondering, Sheng Yan, who was standing next to him, had already run over and looked around like a wild dog.

From Sheng Yan's expression when she came back, it could be seen that the 'melon' not far away... was very big!

Su Lixuan was helpless. Seeing Sheng Yan winking at her mysteriously, she understood what was going on. "What's wrong? What did you see?"

Sheng Yan lowered her voice and said, "I saw a big scene."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Su Lixuan but also the old craftsman who had been busy repairing Sheng Yan's shoes pricked up his ears.

Su Lixuan pointed at the shoes in the master's hand and said, "If you keep on keeping me in suspense, your heels will be gone."

Sheng Yan: “……!”

Knowing that everyone was waiting for her to eat the hot melon, Sheng Yan wisely stopped stretching it: "I just went over and saw a lesbian in a hospital gown kneeling on the ground, hugging a gay man's thigh and crying."

"The female comrade was wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket and was about to pass out from the cold, yet the male comrade was still kicking her!"

"Huh~" Su Lixuan and the shoe repair master both sighed in disdain.

The old master was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this: "Scum like this who bullies female lesbians should be arrested and reformed!"

We are all kind-hearted people, how can we really regard this injustice as something fun?

After a while, Su Lixuan and the other two moved to another position. The old master took the lead and walked towards the crowd with Sheng Yan's shoes in his hand.

There is a kind of free and easy attitude towards life, as if the wind is whistling and the Yishui River is cold, but the old shoemaker is still trying to eliminate harm for the people without feeling disheartened.

Sheng Yan followed behind and said weakly to Su Lixuan, "Lixuan, don't you think he can use my calfskin shoes as a weapon because of his emotions?"

It's precious.

Wouldn't it be a waste if it was used to defeat humans?

Su Lixuan teased her deliberately: "That's hard to say, after all, Master only has this one handy weapon in his hand."

"Or maybe you should start praying from now on, praying that the villain we're about to encounter isn't bad enough to force the master to take action without any regard for the consequences."

"Maybe a successful prayer will save your little shoe's life."

She was teasing Sheng Yan here, but out of the corner of her eye she saw an unexpected person through the crowd.

Lu Yang?

In the middle of the crowd, Lu Yang was being held tightly on the thigh by a woman with her back to her.

Su Lixuan exclaimed "Huh". Not to mention, the woman hugging Lu Yang's thigh looked familiar to her even from the back.

Just as he was wondering, the woman who had been clinging to Lu Yang and not letting him leave spoke—

"Lu Yang, please don't leave me, don't divorce me!"

This is... Ye Wei? !

Under Su Lixuan's suddenly wide eyes, Ye Wei turned her back to her and cried at the top of her lungs.

"Lu Yang, I know you blame me for not saving the child, but if your son hadn't deliberately scattered glass balls in front of me, I wouldn't have dropped the child."

There was so much information in this sentence that the people around started whispering to each other.

There was a sudden noise.

Lu Yang had never been so embarrassed in his life. He struggled hard with his legs... but failed. He raised his hands to hit him, but he was in front of everyone and in front of the door of his own unit.

He beat someone up today, which has such a bad impact. His company will notify him of a "long vacation" tomorrow.

Lu Yang gnashed his teeth in anger: "Ye Wei, are you being heartless when you say that? How did you lose your child and you don't even know?"

Ye Wei: "I know you don't want people to know that the baby in my belly was killed by your eldest son and second daughter, but so many people on the avenue saw it with their own eyes."

"This isn't something you can just cover up if you want to!"

She burst into tears and said, "And I don't hate them. After all, I am their stepmother. As a mother, even if I am a stepmother, I can't be so mean to my children."

"The baby in my belly is gone, but we can have another one in the future. When Dabao and the others accept me as their stepmother, I won't hesitate to have another child."

"Lu Yang, I'll listen to you. Please don't divorce me, I beg you..."

Ignoring Lu Yang's ugly expression, some people around him couldn't stand it anymore: "Big sister, why are you doing this?"

"Three-legged frogs are hard to find, but aren't two-legged men everywhere?"

"Why do you have to beg such a heartless and ungrateful man? He wants to divorce you right after your child is gone. The key is that your child was killed by your stepson. You might as well just divorce a man like him!"
