Her proud head was stuck.

It was so stiff that she almost thought she had a stiff neck!

She looked at Qiao Yu's face on the screen in disbelief...

She is still the same as when I first saw her! She is still so beautiful! So pretty! Even Zhou Ze'an only has fine wrinkles at the end of his eyes!

The passage of time has left no trace on their faces or skin.

What shocked her the most was the military emblem on Qiao Yu's shoulder. That was, that was...

"How can such a young woman be a major general?"

"That's amazing."

"Next to her is her lover, who also holds a high military rank."

"What a perfect match."

Bai Yu gritted his teeth and swallowed it.

No, she has already been so successful, how could this Qiao Yu be promoted to the rank of major general?!

Do you really have to be so awesome?

How did Qiao Yu climb up?

She didn't suspect Qiao Yu had used a backdoor. After all, military titles in this era were like college titles, with high value and based on real talent and ability.

But, how did Qiao Yu climb up there?

Bai Yu had trouble falling asleep and stayed awake for several nights. She bit the sheets to pieces, but couldn't figure out what was going on.

She was successful, and her success was based on that of ordinary people. But compared to Qiao Yu...

There is a world of difference.

They had both been married to the same man and had lived in the same compound, so how could there be such a huge gap in their feelings just in one thought?

They are all reborn...

But she had already started off well, she was the mainstay of the cultural troupe! What was Qiao Yu? A bumpkin from the countryside, she was probably not recognized by her family in her previous life, otherwise she would not have married Zhou Ze'an.

Qiao Yu, who was even more ordinary than her in his previous life, actually did so well!

If I had known earlier, I would have known earlier...

If she had known this earlier, she would have established a good relationship with Qiao Yu!

When you get along with this kind of people, all the oil will leak out from the cracks between their fingers.

Unlike now, it is difficult to even see each other.

Just for the Lu Hong Army!

When Bai Yu thought of Lu Hongjun, his headache started again.

I am so annoyed! Go to sleep!

Lu Hongjun, who was also from his hometown, was also irritated. Especially when he saw the questions asked to Qiao Yu and Zhou Ze'an during the Spring Festival Gala, his irritability reached its peak.

Once, he used Zhou Ze'an as a comparison object.

They all had no background and climbed up from the countryside, but he was only a battalion commander at the time, while Zhou Ze'an was the regiment commander. In addition, the lesbian he had a crush on married Zhou Ze'an...

Later I realized that it would be best not to marry this lesbian.

If he hadn't married her, he would have had the opportunity to go to military school for further studies. With his own abilities, he would not have stopped at being a battalion commander. However, all of this was indirectly ruined by Bai Yu.

He was forced to change his career.

The eldest son, Lu Cheng, has always been sick and needs money to support him. The young lady is very competitive and wants to be the best in everything. He can only work hard to make money.

A few years later, he married his former fiancé, He Meilian.

If he had known that he would end up with this fiancée after all the twists and turns, what would he have said...

Oh no, He Meilian has health problems and can't have a baby.

Lu Hongjun often wondered whether life was destined, with gains and losses.

If he had married He Meilian, but she was infertile, he would have been childless due to his status.

He married Bai Yu and had a child, but he also lost his ideals and aspirations.

Then I thought about how I had been out there, exposed to so much wind and rain, wasn’t it just because I wanted my children to live well?

But no matter how much money you make, it is not enough for the children to compete with each other and spend.

Then, looking at the loving couple on the screen, I suddenly lost my fighting spirit.

What's the use of fighting again? His ideals and aspirations have long ended.

I have saved enough money to live on for the rest of my life if I put it in the bank, and I have also bought a few houses in the city.

That's enough.

"Why did you come back so early today?" He Meilian was surprised when she saw him.

Lu Hongjun looked at the woman.

She was let down by him when they were engaged; she was let down by her ex-husband during her first marriage because she couldn't have children; and she was torn and wasted her time in this marriage because of her two children.

Unlike Bai Yu who is dressed up gorgeously, and unlike Qiao Yu who is full of vigor and vitality on the screen, He Meilian is no different from an ordinary middle-aged woman who has been wasted by life.

What kind of man is he?

He was worthy of his first wife, but not of his second.

"I won't leave early and come back late anymore."

"Ah? Why? The business stall is not making money?"

"To make money."

"Then why......"

"I've made enough money. I'll spend more time with you in the future. As for the children? I'll support them through school and let them work hard on their own. I'll leave them an apartment. That's fair to them."

He Meilian hesitated for a moment and said, "Yangyang was clamoring to buy corduroy pants a few days ago..."

"What are you buying? I'm not buying any more!" Lu Hongjun held her hand and said, "Meilian, I broke off the engagement and caused you to suffer from all the rumors... From now on, I will treat you well."

He Meilian froze, pulled her hand back, and said, "It's all in the past, why bring it up?"

Lu Hongjun wanted to say that he was wrong and that he shouldn't have fought for trivial matters and lost sight of his own heart.

If he had not been interested in her as his fiancée, he would not have agreed to the engagement, and the two of them would have missed out on all these years...

The responsibility lies with him.

However, seeing that she didn't want to say more, Lu Hongjun suppressed his words in his heart.

He felt an inexplicable bitterness in his chest.

Late at night, the couple lay down back to back.

After a long while, Lu Hongjun heard her say, "That's it, Lu Hongjun."

Lu Hongjun didn't say anything until she said, "You are already so old, just get along with each other. To say anything else... sounds hypocritical."

At this age, why are you still talking about the past? Talking about feelings? Are you being pretentious?

"...Okay." It took Lu Hongjun a long time to find his voice again.

…

Shi Liuya had just had a quarrel with her mother-in-law, and when she saw Qiao Yu and the other man on the screen, she had a weapon to stab her mother-in-law again.

"Mom! Look at what you have? Your parents' home has become a burden. Your father-in-law doesn't even want to go home after spending the night outside. You're unhappy so you take it out on us daughters-in-law, right? Look who's on the Spring Festival Gala? It's Uncle Qiao and Aunt Qiao, who you once looked down upon!

She is so capable, has good relationships with her neighbors and a good reputation. Whoever sees her wouldn't give her a thumbs up, right?

Look at you, we all came from the same compound, and now that you're gone, all our relationships are severed...

Oh, it's not that you want to judge, it's just that you have this temper, you look down on everyone, but why do people praise you? A phoenix that has its feathers plucked is no better than a chicken, so you should face the reality!"

When I turned around, Gu Feiyu was standing not far away. I didn't know how long he had been listening.

Shi Liuya was a little afraid of him.

"Brother Feiyu..."

"Come here."

As soon as Shi Liuya approached, he grabbed her hand and strode away.

Back then, I should have finished my studies.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to gain a foothold in the city by relying on Gu Feiyu and this marriage.

Gu Feiyu is good-looking and although he is deaf in one ear, it is not a big deal, especially after the reform, he can make money.

Why is she afraid of Gu Feiyu?

Afraid of that thing in bed.

He is a bit perverted and never does anything serious with her.

But there were scratches all over the bed, and he let her go under the bed.

For example, when facing her mother-in-law, she could speak without restraint and curse at her at will, but Gu Feiyu not only did not say anything, he was even gentler at night and gave her money afterwards, as if to encourage her behavior.
