Thinking of this, Shen Zhengdong hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, I didn't control my emotions for a moment."
Seeing Shen Zhengdong's reaction, Duan Shuang was stunned.
This guy must be seriously ill. One moment he was so angry that he wanted to tear her apart, and now he is apologizing to her.
Could it be that he was going to show weakness first and then try to kill her?
I don’t think so…
After all, Duan Shuang and Shen Zhengdong have been married for so many years, so she has some understanding of this.
But he looks like he has schizophrenia. Who knows whether his other personality is good or bad?
"No...it's okay. I know you're under a lot of pressure."
Just when Duan Shuang was hesitating whether to ask Shen Zhengdong to borrow some money from his colleagues to deal with the emergency, he spoke first.
"Xiao Shuang, don't worry, I'll go to my colleague's house and ask if I can borrow some."
Seeing Shen Zhengdong's attitude change so much, Duan Shuang became even more panicked.
What should she do? She really wanted to escape, but Beizheng was still waiting for her in the hospital.
Forget it, let's just wait a little longer. Besides, judging from his current condition, he shouldn't attack her.
"Thank you for your hard work, Zhengdong."
"I'm your man, isn't this what I should do?" Shen Zhengdong forced a smile, "You sit down and rest for a while, I'll go to Lao Zhao's house to check on him."
After saying this, Shen Zhengdong didn't wait for Duan Shuang to answer, and hurried towards his colleague Lao Zhao's house.
In fact, his relationship with his colleagues has not been good over the years.
Firstly, it was because Shen Zhengdong had reported his biological father that year, and everyone was afraid to associate with him, fearing that he would stab them in the back.
Secondly, it was also because Duan Shuang was very strict in controlling him, fearing that he would have an affair outside.
Shen Zhengdong felt a little uncomfortable suddenly having to go to his colleague's house to borrow money.
But Duan Shuang might be pregnant, and he has watched Bei Zheng grow up since he was a child, so he can't just ignore it, right?
Thinking of this, Shen Zhengdong took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door of his colleague Lao Zhao's house.
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Who is it?"
"It's me, Shen Zhengdong."
After hearing him introduce himself, there was silence inside the door for about ten seconds, and then a burst of footsteps was heard.
Then, the door was opened from the inside, revealing a face ravaged by time.
The woman smiled and said softly, "It's Old Shen. What can I do for you?"
The woman was displeased with Shen Zhengdong's sudden visit, but since he had come to her house, she couldn't just turn him away.
Besides, her husband is his colleague and they see each other every day. It would not be good to make things too ugly.
So, she could only suppress her displeasure and open the door for him.
Seeing that it was not Lao Zhao but his wife who opened the door, an unnatural look flashed across Shen Zhengdong's face, "Is Lao Zhao home? I have something private to talk to him about."
"Old Zhao is out fishing. If you have anything to say to him, I'll tell him when he comes back."
Hearing the woman's words, Shen Zhengdong's eyes were filled with disappointment.
At school, he was only slightly familiar with Lao Zhao.
Others rarely chat except for necessary work exchanges.
Now that Lao Zhao is not here, who else can he look for?
As for asking Lao Zhao where he was fishing, Shen Zhengdong really couldn't bring himself to ask.
Because all his courage had just been exhausted.
"No, it's nothing. Since Lao Zhao isn't here, I'll leave first."
After watching Shen Zhengdong leave, the woman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lao Zhao was not at home, otherwise Shen Zhengdong would have come to her house to seek help, and he would definitely not refuse.
Old Zhao is the pillar of the family, and nothing must happen to him, so it is better to have less contact with Shen Zhengdong.
After Shen Zhengdong left Old Zhao's house, he wandered around the staff quarters aimlessly because he really didn't know who else he could borrow money from.
If he went home, he didn't know how to face Duan Shuang. If he didn't go back, he had nowhere to go. In the end, when he couldn't delay any longer, Shen Zhengdong went back.
Duan Shuang saw him coming back and hurried over to greet him, "Zhengdong, how's it going? Did you borrow the money?"
"No...no, Lao Zhao is not at home."
"Then have you gone to other colleagues' homes to ask? It's impossible that none of them are at home."
"I don't know the other people well, how can I borrow money from them?"
Duan Shuang looked at Shen Zhengdong, his eyes filled with unconcealable disappointment.
It's already this time, it's no exaggeration to say that human lives are at stake.
Shen Zhengdong is still worried about this and afraid of that.
Could it be that because Beizheng is not his biological son, he is not anxious or heartbroken?
"What about Bei Zheng? He's still lying in the hospital."
Seeing that his wife kept talking about the Northern Expedition without any regard for his face and thoughts, Shen Zhengdong's anger surged again.
"You keep asking me what to do, what to do. Aren't you Bei Zheng's mother? Can't you think of a solution?" Shen Zhengdong softened his tone slightly, worried that Duan Shuang might be pregnant. "Besides, the family doesn't even have money for food right now. Bei Zheng is the only one in your eyes and heart. Aren't Yun Juan, Yun Shu, and Xiao Bao your children?"
"I didn't say they weren't my children. I love them, but priorities matter. If Beizheng's fracture isn't treated promptly, it will not only cause him immense pain, but will also worsen the injury."
"You asked me to go find my dad, and I went. Xiaonian took him to the army to retire. You can't blame me for that, right? After that, I took the initiative to borrow money from Lao Zhao, but Lao Zhao was not at home. This is not something I can control. I really have no other choice. I did everything I could to find and borrow money, but the result was not satisfactory."
