Lin Hongzhi asked the driver to find him a place where he could make a phone call. He dialed a familiar number, waited a few minutes, and then he and Tong Shujia got through on the phone.
"What do you want?" Tong Shujia asked casually, looking down at her freshly applied nail polish, which was bright red and pretty; she liked it very much.
Lin Hongzhi didn't mince words and said directly, "Our daughter has been sent to the law enforcement office."
Tong Shujia jumped up and asked, "What happened? Who put her in there?"
Lin Hongzhi loosened the buttons on his collar. "It's Gu Jia's son. He has a girlfriend, and then our daughter found out and started making a scene."
What's most infuriating is that he sent his daughter to the law enforcement office. This man is a complete scoundrel, no different from an animal!
"How dare he do this!" Tong Shujia shouted angrily.
Lin Xiaoyi, who had just entered the room with his key, was startled. He then slowly walked towards his mother. He had run out of money again and was thinking of coming back to get some more.
Judging from the expression on my mother's face, did something terrible happen on the other end of the phone?
Lin Hongzhi said, "What we can do now is to get our daughter out as soon as possible, and then transfer her medical records from the hospital. It would be best not to leave anything behind, so that there will be no problems."
Tong Shujia calmed down by now, "So you called to ask me to come over?"
Lin Hongzhi: "That's right! I have to go to work tomorrow, and I can't keep an eye on this all day. You need to resolve this quickly so that our daughter's troubles will be reduced!"
Tong Shujia: "Fine! I'll go tomorrow. You can arrange for someone to pick me up at the train station. It's the same train, you know the schedule! Okay, that's all, I don't want to talk now!"
I hung up the phone without thinking, my anger rising.
She thought she had found a good family for her daughter, but it turned out to be a hot potato. If outsiders knew, her daughter had been to jail.
Will I be able to find a good partner in the future?
Lin Hongzhi heard the dial tone and didn't call back. The two of them didn't communicate much to begin with, and if it weren't for his daughter, he probably wouldn't call home for months.
After settling the bill with the owner, I went outside, got into the car, and told the driver, "Just take me back to my place."
"Aren't you going to eat today?" the driver asked casually.
"I don't really want to eat it," Lin Hongzhi said.
"We can't go without eating now that something's happened. I haven't eaten either, how about we go get a bowl of noodles?" the driver said solicitously. "You don't need to pay, it's on me today!"
Lin Hongzhi slumped back in the chair, closed his eyes, and rubbed the bridge of his nose.
"You're treating us this week, so it would be a shame if I didn't eat. Okay, let's go get a bowl of noodles!"
The driver knew he had flattered the right person, so he turned the car around and headed toward the nearest state-run restaurant.
Cinema.
Lu Zhixia only saw Zhou An'an when the event ended. She was wearing a red dress, her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she was wearing fashionable high heels. She almost didn't recognize her.
"An'an! You look so beautiful in that outfit!"
"This is the first time I've ever worn a skirt outside." Zhou An'an subconsciously touched the waist of her skirt, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"It looks great, I can wear it more often in the future," Lu Zhixia said.
Zhou An'an was very happy to be praised, "It's just that it's not very convenient for work, so my mom sent me this dress."
Xiao Wang said to Gu Lingxiao, "We're planning to go for a walk down a street. Do you want to come along?"
Gu Lingxiao said, "You guys go ahead! We still need to go eat!"
Between strolling and eating, Xiao Wang decisively chose to stroll. It was a rare opportunity to be alone with Zhou An'an; the next chance like this wouldn't come until a holiday. So he said…
"You guys eat well, we'll go for a walk, and we'll grab something to eat outside later."
Gu Lingxiao said, "Go ahead! Just don't forget the time!"
Xiao Wang was overjoyed. Now he loves driving for his boss more and more. Besides being able to eat delicious food, he has also found love. Life is getting better and better!
So beautiful that he could laugh out loud in his dreams!
Xiao Wang, holding Zhou An'an's hand, disappeared into the crowd.
There were quite a few people watching the movie today; they walked behind.
Mr. Bai remarked, "I didn't expect there to be so many people watching movies these days."
Lu Zhixia said, "The main reason is that the price is not expensive, plus it was the weekend, so there were a lot of people. I guess there wouldn't be many people on weekdays."
Gu Huailin looked up at him and asked, "Shall we go eat wontons later?"
Lu Zhixia looked at her son, "Do you want to eat wontons?"
Gu Huailin nodded, "I heard from a classmate that the wontons at the restaurant near the movie theater are really delicious, and he always eats two ounces of them!"
Lu Zhixia looked at the old man and asked, "Grandpa, would you like some wontons?"
Grandpa Bai said with a smile, "I'm fine with whatever I eat. If the child wants wontons, then we'll have wontons."
So they walked toward the state-run restaurant next door, and soon arrived. Once inside, they found it was quite crowded.
There must have been quite a few people who came to eat after the movie ended; they found a corner seat and sat down.
The waiter worked at several tables before finally reaching them.
What would you like to eat?
"What kind of fillings do wontons have?" Lu Zhixia asked.
The waiter said, "We only have these three fillings: pork and three delicacies, chives, egg and shrimp, and beef. The rest are all sold out!"
The old man spoke first, "I'll have chives, eggs, and shrimp, a small portion is fine with me!"
Gu Huailin gestured with his hands and said, "I want beef, a large portion!"
"The large portion is a lot for a child." The waiter gestured with his hands, mimicking the size of the watermelon, "It's such a big bowl! Can you finish it?"
