Xu Mo held Shen Jiaojiao's hand tightly, stroking the woman's tender fingertips with his fingers, as if venting some hidden emotions.

After a long while, the man let out a breath and looked at the time. It was 11 o'clock in the morning.

Hmm...it seems to be still early.

My eyes swept across the busy street, finally stopping at a store not far away with a sign saying "Accommodation".

Shen Jiaojiao followed his gaze and the two huge breasts stimulated her eyes.

My heart skipped a beat again.

He wouldn't want to get a room now, would he?

Well...it's not impossible.

They haven't booked a room outside yet, so it feels quite exciting.

Shen Jiaojiao was actually looking forward to it.

Xu Mo retracted his gaze and glanced at Shen Jiaojiao with a smile in his eyes, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat first, okay?"

Shen Jiaojiao: "..." Eat? She doesn't want to eat at all.

"Okay! Beijing has changed a lot now. Many hotels and restaurants have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. There are many delicious places here. I'll take you there."

Shen Jiaojiao retracted that thought and carefully explained to Xu Mo the changes that had taken place over the past few years.

"You may not know this, but my mother and my elder and second brothers opened a restaurant, and now the business is booming. My mother and her family also opened a private hospital..."

As she spoke, Shen Jiaojiao brought Xu Mo to the door of a private restaurant.

The decoration of the store is very unique. Shen Jiaojiao has been here several times.

Just as I was about to go in, my eye was suddenly attracted by a person standing next to a trash can not far away.

Shen Jiaojiao grabbed Xu Mo and motioned him to look in the direction of the trash can.

Next to the trash can, a man who looked to be in his 50s or 60s was searching through a sack for valuables.

When I saw plastic cans or something like that, I would use the long pliers in my hand to pick up the useful things and put them into the sack.

There were many people collecting garbage on the street, but Shen Jiaojiao and Xu Mo recognized who that person was at a glance.

"Village chief." The two looked at each other and said in unison.

Without hesitation, he walked quickly towards the village chief. Standing three steps away from the trash can, he confirmed once again that the man picking up the trash was the village chief.

For a moment, my mood was a little complicated.

Shen Jiaojiao shouted in a heavy voice, "Village Chief, why are you here?"

The village chief paused while picking up the garbage, and was a little bit incredulous when he heard the familiar voice.

He buried his face in the thick collar of his coat and did not dare to raise his head for a long time.

Perhaps he felt that he had no way to avoid it and convinced himself, and it took him a long while before he slowly looked towards Shen Jiaojiao and the others.

After not seeing him for a few years, the village chief had become much thinner, with the flesh on his cheeks no longer holding on, and he looked as if he had aged ten years.

The village chief had an awkward smile on his face, but his expression was still as kind as usual. "My dear Xu Mo, it's been a long time since we last met. How are you doing?"

Shen Jiaojiao and Xu Mo brought the village chief into a private restaurant, ordered a lot of food, and prepared to treat the village chief to a meal.

It seemed that the village chief had not had a full meal for a long time. He was still concerned about his face when he started eating, but later he just wolfed down the food.

While eating, Shen Jiaojiao and the others also learned about the village chief's situation.

It turned out that after the reform and opening-up policy was relaxed, the village chief's son gave up his iron rice bowl in the factory and went to Beijing with his friends to do business.

He got involved in the clothing industry, gambled his entire fortune, and opened a factory in Beijing with his friend.

Originally the business was good and the company made a lot of money in the first two years. But later on, the village chief's son listened to his friend and wanted to expand production, so he asked him to borrow money at high interest rates.

The village chief's son was an honest man and he actually went to borrow the money. But in the end, his friend used the high-interest loan to gamble, and as expected, he lost all the money.

The friend of the village chief's son ran away because he couldn't pay off the huge debt.

The remaining rotten stalls can only be dealt with by the village chief's family.

The village chief couldn't bear to see his son suffer, so he came over to help earn money to supplement the family income.

All the money that their family earned in the past year or two was used to pay off debts, and even so, they still owed a lot of money.

Talking about these past events, the village chief couldn't help but tears in his eyes.

"My son is not a lazy and reckless person. He just listened to others and was harmed by his friends. That's why he ended up in this situation. It is because I know my son's true nature that I am willing to help him pay off his debts."

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the village chief with sympathy. When she was in the village, the village chief was a friend of women and was tolerant and compassionate to everyone.

Now it's the village chief's turn to be in trouble, how can she just stand by and watch?

Shen Jiaojiao pulled Xu Mo's sleeve, motioning him to speak.

Xu Mo said seriously, "Don't be too sad, Village Chief. It's normal to have ups and downs in life. It's even more normal to have losses and gains in business. Let's just think of this as a lesson learned. How much money do you still need to pay back?"

The village chief was also full at this moment. He wiped his mouth with his hand and said, "There are still about 6,000 yuan left."

Xu Mo said, "It's okay, not too much. Your son has a good business sense. If he continues to do the clothing business, he will definitely make a comeback in the future.

Village chief, I can invest 30,000 yuan in you and help you rebuild the factory."

The village chief looked at Xu Mo in astonishment and was completely frightened.

Thirty thousand dollars.

How much does this cost?

"Xu Mo, this is not a small amount. Don't spend money recklessly just because I'm the village chief. We can pay it back slowly. It's okay."

Xu Mo shook his head and said, "Village Chief, I'm not giving it to you for free. It's an investment, so let's split the profits 50-50 in the future! I don't care whether you make a profit or a loss, as long as you work hard."

Xu Mo smiled and said, "Maybe the village chief has forgotten that when my family was poor, you also lent me money unconditionally. Today, I want to repay you for what you did back then."

The village chief's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude. Thinking of his wife working outside in the cold winter months, and his son's hair turning white due to debt, the village chief felt a lot of grievances in his heart.

The suffering he had endured in recent days made him explode completely at this moment.

He completely lost his dignity and sobbed.

"Jiaojiao, Xu Mo, thank you so much, I really thank you!"

Seeing the village chief burst into tears, Shen Jiaojiao felt a lump in her throat.

The village chief is such a good person, he must be rewarded.

After dinner, the three left the restaurant.

Xu Mo and the village chief Yuehao agreed to meet at the courtyard of Maozi Hutong tomorrow to discuss the details of their cooperation.

The village chief left. Shen Jiaojiao held Xu Mo's hand and looked at his departing back, feeling sad.

"Xu Mo, I just now realized that being able to help people around me and seeing them happy will make me happier. Isn't this the meaning of our lives?"

Being able to use my abilities to help those in need is a sense of accomplishment that cannot be replaced by any amount of money.

Xu Mo pinched Shen Jiaojiao's face and said lovingly, "Yes, whatever my wife says is right."

He saw someone selling candied haws on the street, not only hawthorns but also strawberries, so he asked Shen Jiaojiao, "You didn't eat much just now, are you still hungry?"

"Not hungry." Shen Jiaojiao shook her head.

Xu Mo was still worried, so he ran to the candied haws stall and bought two strings of strawberry candied haws.

"This strawberry looks pretty big. Eat some first."

Since she had already bought it, Shen Jiaojiao took it and started eating.

Xu Mo took Shen Jiaojiao's hand and took her directly to the hotel where they were staying to book a room.

After Shen Jiaojiao reacted, she had eaten half of the strawberry and was already standing in the room.

The interior decoration is very warm, especially the super large bed with pure white sheets, which looks very exciting.

There was heating in the room, and Shen Jiaojiao suddenly felt very hot, and her cheeks turned red.

Xu Mo stood beside the bed, staring at her, and began to take off his coat.

He was wearing a pure white cotton shirt and a pair of black trousers.

The hem of the shirt was tucked into his trousers, emphasizing his thin waist.

Perhaps because it was too tight, Xu Mo unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, revealing his graceful neck and beautiful collarbone.

After doing all this, the man walked up to Shen Jiaojiao, put his arms around the woman's slender waist, lowered his head and held the woman's lips, sucking on them to remove the rock sugar.

"Wife, I'm going to take a shower first, do you want to join me?"

The man's voice was so deep and magnetic that Shen Jiaojiao felt numb all over.

He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "You...you wash first."

Xu Mo laughed softly, his eyes fixed on Shen Jiaojiao, unspeakably gentle.

Shen Jiaojiao was so distracted by being looked at that she couldn't help but laughed out loud.

"Go quickly!" Pushing the person into the bathroom.

Xu Mo was still a little reluctant, and said with a smile, "Is my wife anxious?"

Shen Jiaojiao glared at him and said, "Yes, yes, I'm anxious. You'd better wash it clean for me."

He pushed Xu Mo into the bathroom with force.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief after closing the door.

They are obviously an old couple, so why they are so flustered when they meet this time? I really don't understand.

Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.
