Chapter 342 I Thought You Were Dead
"Where have you been? Why haven't you heard from me for so long? I thought you were dead!"
Bao Cheng's punch was quite powerful and it hurt a lot. Li Xiang knew that he was really worried about him.
He smiled innocently and said, "I'm here now, aren't I?"
Li Xiang raised the wine and peanuts in his hand and said, "How about a drink?"
Xu Cui recognized Li Xiang's voice and quickly stood up to greet him: "Dad, please let Li Xiang in. Why are you standing at the door?"
Li Xiang smiled at her as he walked in: "Sister-in-law, I'm here to trouble you again."
"That's too polite. I haven't heard from you for months. My old man, Bao, is so worried that his lips are blistered. If you don't come again, I think he'll put up a missing person notice! You guys sit down, I'll go cook two dishes!"
Xu Cui was an intelligent person. She knew that Li Xiang came at this time for no reason, so she said a few polite words and went to the kitchen.
Li Xiang hurriedly called out, "Sister-in-law, don't bother. We can just have a few sips with some peanuts!"
Xu Cui lifted the curtain, turned her head and smiled: "Look at what you said, it's not easy for you to come home, if I don't cook a few dishes, my husband Bao will definitely scold me later! You guys drink first, I'll go cook!"
Bao Cheng waved to Li Xiang, motioning him to sit down. "Where have you been lately? Why haven't I heard anything about you? I heard your sister-in-law and you are getting a divorce. Is that true?"
Li Xiang sighed, "It's hard to put it into words. Ever since I was transferred to the workshop to carry the heavy load, that woman Liu Jinfeng has always disliked me and even falsely accused me of having a woman outside. Life has become unbearable!
The divorce is real, but it hasn't happened yet. It wasn't Liu Jinfeng who wanted to divorce me, but I wanted to divorce, but she didn't agree!
Bao Cheng leaned back on the sofa. "I also disagree with Director Zhang's decision to transfer you to the workshop to handle the heavy lifting. I've raised this issue privately several times, but he always puts it off until later. Old Li, how on earth did you offend him to make him treat you like this?"
Li Xiang gave a bitter smile. "It's hard to explain this matter in a few words. Anyway, it's over. I don't want to talk about this unpleasant thing anymore. Come on, let's go for a walk, brothers."
Li Xiang picked up the wine glass, gulped it down, picked up a peanut and put it into his mouth.
Bao Cheng looked at him and said, "What are your plans next? How about I ask Director Zhang to intercede for you and let you return to the factory? You can work in the workshop first and then transfer slowly when there is an opportunity."
"Brother Bao, I know you mean well, but now that I've left the factory, I won't be going back."
"You can't keep doing this. Home isn't like home anymore, and your job isn't settled. You mustn't give up. You'll be doomed if you keep going like this! Your sister-in-law is fighting with you because she wants you to be more motivated. Your wife, children, and the whole family are counting on you."
"I've completely given up on Liu Jinfeng. This marriage must be divorced. If I don't, she will drag me to death sooner or later. Forget it, let's not talk about these bad things. Brother Bao, I came here today to discuss something with you."
"What's the matter?" Bao Cheng raised his head and looked at him and asked.
"Didn't you just ask me where I've been these days? Actually, I've been active in the county. I don't know if you've heard that a friend of mine bought the land by the crematorium and wants to open a textile factory there, and I've been helping her these days."
