How did things turn out like this?!
Guan Zherui looked at Xia Guokang's dejected look and thought that he had a high blood pressure attack because he had too many things to do in the past few days.
But now they are penniless and can't afford to go to the hospital, so they can only go home and rest.
Thinking of this, Guan Zherui couldn't help but shed tears again. This was really "when it rains it pours". Her family was fine a few months ago, how come it became like this in the blink of an eye...
She sobbed and said to Xia Guokang: "... Old man, let's go home first. Xiaohao and Zicheng are home alone, I'm afraid something might happen to them..."
Guan Zherui supported Xia Guokang and slowly walked towards the low-rent housing. Xia Guokang was like a puppet, staring blankly at Guan Zherui and letting him walk.
The rain penetrated into their clothes like cow hair, and soon both of them were soaked.
Guan Zherui wrapped her windbreaker tightly around her body, and whispered as she walked, "If we can't get the ring, will that Wu let us go... If not, let's hide in the countryside for a while!"
"I have a cousin in my hometown. If we ask him for favors, he should be able to take us in. I just don't know if there has been a flood there..."
"Old man, I'm not saying this, but your daughter is too cruel! It's okay for her to treat me like this, because I'm a stepmother that everyone hates, but you are her biological father! How could she treat you like this..."
"She took all our money. We have to sue her to get it back. Otherwise, how are we going to live in the future? Zicheng and Xiaohao are still young. They will need money a lot in the future..."
Listening to Guan Zherui's chattering, Xia Guokang felt his mind was in a mess.
Sometimes a black and white snow appeared before his eyes, and sometimes a series of bizarre slides appeared in front of him.
He seemed to see mushrooms floating in the sky, with mushrooms sprouting from their tops, which then turned into a pool of blood. The blood then formed a human face, and countless legs grew from under the face, floating away like jellyfish...
Xia Guokang followed the jellyfishes floating around, and then he saw one of the faces turned into Xia Zicheng's and landed in the ditch in front.
"Dad! Dad, save me! I can't swim!"
Seeing Xia Zicheng struggling in the ditch, Xia Guokang was so frightened that his eyes were about to burst, and he shouted: "Son!"
Guan Zherui was startled by Xia Guokang's shouting, and looked in the direction Xia Guokang was looking, but she only saw a ditch, and did not see Xia Zicheng's figure.
Xia Guokang saw Xia Zicheng struggling in the ditch, as if he was going to drown in the next second. He was so scared that he immediately rolled up his sleeves and prepared to jump in to save him.
Guan Zherui saw this and quickly grabbed Xia Guokang. She looked surprised and said in panic, "Old man! What are you going to do? There's nothing in the ditch!"
Xia Guokang was stunned when he heard this. He looked towards the ditch and saw that Xia Zicheng, who was in the ditch, had no strength to struggle anymore and was being submerged by the water little by little.
Xia Guokang's eyes instantly burst into tears when he saw this - he had lost everything now, he couldn't even lose his only son!
Xia Guokang collapsed and yelled, "Son! Don't!"
The cry was full of despair, and Guan Zherui was frightened to the point of being frozen in place.
She looked at Xia Guokang with disbelief, as if she was looking at a lunatic.
Then Xia Guokang pushed Guan Zherui away, staggered to the ditch, and jumped in...
