Wednesday, April 10, 1996.
Lin Dong and Feng Zi secretly crossed the border into China through a familiar passage.
At 10 p.m. that night, the two finally arrived safely in Nandu.
Lin Dong's trip abroad lasted for more than a month.
After being away for so long, there must be quite a few people in this area of Southern Metropolis who still miss him.
......
According to her usual routine, Lin's mother would have been in bed by this time.
But for some reason, she felt uneasy tonight, and her left eyelid twitched slightly from time to time.
According to the older generation, "a twitching left eye means good fortune, while a twitching right eye means bad luck."
Is a twitching left eye so bad late at night a sign of good news in the family?
My son, Lin Dong, has been away from home for over a month, and lately he has rarely called back.
As a mother, she knew that her son was no ordinary person; he must be busy doing something important.
During this time, without Sun Jialu's company, she would feel extremely lonely, even living in this luxurious villa.
With nothing much to do, they often go shopping, eat delicious food, and visit parks together...
In Nandu, Lin's mother didn't know many people, except for Lao Niu, who would come back every few days to freeload a meal.
What made her happiest was that quirky and beautiful girl, Wan Ya.
Every time Wan Ya arrives, the usually quiet and elegant house is instantly filled with laughter.
Although these days are short, they always make Lin's mother feel a few years younger.
The happiness of young people can sometimes be contagious.
The Lin family is now quite large and prosperous, but he only has one son.
Moreover, this son is quite irresponsible, always busy with this and that, running around everywhere, he doesn't seem to care about staying at home at all.
Sigh... I have no daughters, and my son doesn't want to get married too early.
With Lin Ya and Sun Jialu by my side, it's quite nice!
However, sometimes Lin's mother is also conflicted:
Two such outstanding girls, one gentle and virtuous, the other lively and sweet-talking, which one will your son choose in the end?
Given Lin's mother's personality, she would think they were all good.
Unfortunately, Lin Dong doesn't seem to care much about either of these women, which is a problem...
During the days when Lin Dong was away from home, Lin's mother fully embraced her "active" nature.
Whenever she had free time, she would go to visit the villa at number 32.
Her son is the largest owner in the Marriott Villas, and Lin's mother wishes all the villas were filled with acquaintances.
The three young men in villa number 32, named Jun Ge, Lao Si, and Dali, are said to be his son's loyal subordinates.
Normally, they were quite polite and respectful to her, this old woman.
They can chat about everyday things, but when it comes to truly opening up, they can only talk to their "future daughter-in-law," Sun Jialu.
......
"Xiaolu, Dong'er has been away from home for almost 40 days now, why hasn't she come back yet?"
Lin's mother glanced at the gate outside the courtyard and asked absentmindedly.
On the TV screen in the living room, the recently popular Southern-themed drama series, "The Richest Man's Family," is being replayed.
"Yes, Auntie, Dong Ge has been gone for 39 days. He has important things to do, so it's normal for it to take a while."
Sun Jialu said softly, and silently peeled an orange and handed it to Lin's mother.
"Sigh... Do you think Dong'er might encounter any danger outside?"
"Auntie, please don't worry. I believe in Dong-ge's abilities; he's the best!"
"You're just taking his side, huh! If he's so capable, why hasn't he given me a grandson yet?"
"Uh... Auntie, you..."
Sun Jialu's fair and delicate face flushed red, and she stammered, unsure how to answer.
Just then, the courtyard gate outside creaked open automatically.
A familiar, slender figure came into their view.
"Dong'er?!"
"It's Dong-ge! Dong-ge is back!"
Lin's mother and Sun Jialu stood up simultaneously and rushed out in their slippers...
"Mom, I'm home!"
As soon as he entered the house, Lin Dong smiled broadly and gave his mother and Sun Jialu a big hug each.
All the weariness and turmoil of the past few days in a foreign land vanished at this moment.
Even the strongest man needs a peaceful home.
Having the thought of returning home means you can rest when you're tired.
That night, Lin's mother happily cooked a big bowl of pork trotter noodles for Lin Dong. She watched her son eat every last drop of soup before going back to her room to sleep, completely satisfied.
She was very understanding; she knew that the couple hadn't seen each other for so long, and that a long absence made them feel even closer.
As the saying goes, "A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold," so let's give more time to young people.
This enchanting night is worth far more than a thousand pieces of gold.
A long-awaited rain after a drought...
Lin Dong, embracing his "maid" Sun Jialu, fought their way from the bathroom to the bed, and then from the bed to the bedroom floor.
Clothes are scattered, spring's beauty is boundless...
This ordeal lasted all night.
Sun Jialu, a woman whose loyalty is already maxed out without needing to be increased, is quite the wild one when she gets wanton.
If Lin Dong hadn't had his body strengthened, he probably wouldn't have been able to handle it all night.
................................................
The next day, Lin Dong didn't get up until noon.
After washing up and having lunch at home, he went to Villa No. 98.
There, Lao Niu, Feng Zi, Fan Gui, and Mo Huan, his most loyal core subordinates, were waiting for him.
