Liu Yihang pedaled his old bicycle so fast it flew up, even faster than when he came back.
On the way, they also encountered two police officers and Chen Hua and his group of four.
The veteran officer reminded him to go to the station to give a statement when he had time.
Liu Yihang was in a hurry to get back, so he left first.
When I rushed back to the construction site, everyone had already finished get off work and was eating and resting in the workers' shed.
When Lin Guihua saw her son return, she quickly served him rice.
"Xiangdong, your son is back. Quickly wash your hands and eat."
I thought you weren't coming back today, I almost didn't wait for you. Here, I made your favorite stir-fried pork with green peppers.
Liu Yihang took a sniff and smelled the familiar scent.
"Dad, Mom, I have something good to show you." Liu Yihang took out the lost and found notice from the old backpack behind him.
"This is... an acceptance letter? You got in?" Liu Xiangdong's eyes widened in surprise.
Liu Xiangdong has been very anxious these past few days. His son's admission notice has not arrived yet, and he suspects that he may have failed the exam, but he dares not say it outright.
I didn't realize I was overthinking things.
Lin Guihua wiped her hands on her clothes, carefully took her son's admission notice, and examined it over and over in her hands.
"Liu Yihang, you are hereby admitted to the Economics program at our university. Please bring this admission notice to the university for registration. Tianzhou University!"
"What? Tianzhou University? Are you sure you're not mistaken?!"
The coworkers who shared a dormitory called out.
Everyone gathered around.
"It really is Tianzhou University! I didn't realize you were such a high achiever, Liu."
"This is my first time pouring concrete with top students!"
"You spend your whole life laying concrete, while others will soon be phoenixes on branches, pillars of the nation. How can you compare?"
"I can brag about working with top students from Tianzhou University to pour concrete for the rest of my life."
Congratulations!
"Brother Xiangdong, Hanghang, congratulations!" Liu San also warmly surrounded them.
Liu Yihang used mind-reading to listen to his true inner thoughts.
(Oh dear, how could I have let this guy go back so easily? I wonder how things are going with Liu Xiangqian. The matter wasn't settled, I hope he won't make me return the money?)
Liu Yihang had an idea.
He vividly described the scene of receiving the admission notice today, with everyone present.
Liu Xiangdong and Lin Guihua were so angry they gritted their teeth, wishing Liu Xiangqian were right in front of them so they could beat him up and vent their anger.
"That damned Liu Xiangqian, he usually looks honest and kind, but he's full of bad intentions. Thank God, may the Bodhisattva protect him." Lin Guihua made a bowing gesture towards the sky.
"Bang!" Liu Xiangdong slammed his fist on the wooden table. He wasn't good at expressing himself, so this was the only way he could vent his anger.
My son has had such a tough time these past few years. He worked so hard to get into university. What will he do if Liu Xiangqian really succeeds?
The workers also condemned the thief who had kept the notice.
"God, how could there be such a wicked person? Such a bad person will ruin his future and go to hell after he dies."
Liu San mingled among the group of people, feeling uneasy and lost in thought.
(Liu Xiangqian has been arrested? Did he implicate me too?)
"I always felt that Liu Xiangqian must have other tricks up his sleeve. After all, I can find out about the notification letter by checking it, and I will definitely find out from him. He must have a backup plan if he wants to cover things up."
"I'm sure the police will make him talk, and his accomplices will be rounded up sooner or later." Liu Yihang said, while secretly observing Liu San.
Upon hearing this, Liu San became even more flustered.
(Liu Xiangqian will definitely implicate me! I should have known better than to be greedy for his 500 yuan.)
No, I can't just sit here and wait to die. Running away is definitely not an option; my wife and children at home still need me.
Surrender? Yes! Before Liu Xiangqian confesses, I'll surrender immediately and try to get leniency!
While Liu Yihang's family was having dinner, Liu San made an excuse and ran away.
"Mom, your stir-fried pork with green peppers is so delicious."
"If you like it, eat more. Mom will give you more rice."
Lin Guihua happily served rice to her son, her heart and eyes overflowing with pride.
After the meal, Lin Dazhi, the uncle from the neighboring work shed, learned that his nephew had been admitted to Tianzhou University.
Congratulations!
"You two have finally made it through! Hanghang has a bright future ahead of him!"
"I dare not think about a bright future. As long as he doesn't suffer as much as we have in this life, I will be content," Lin Guihua said sincerely.
Hearing his wife's remark, Liu Xiangdong lowered his head in embarrassment.
He has lived a life where he has been true to everyone except his wife, Lin Guihua, who suffered alongside him.
His parents favored the younger one; he was the eldest, and he took on all the dirty and tiring chores at home.
He never gets to have any of the best food or clothes.
This caused Lin Guihua to suffer and endure hardship even after she married him.
The couple suffered a lot of grievances at home because they wanted to support their child's education.
Fortunately, Hanghang is a good student, and everything will be alright in the future.
"Hanghang, please accept this small token of my appreciation." Lin Dazhi pulled out a neat stack of bills from his pocket and stuffed them into Liu Yihang's pocket.
Liu Yihang quickly declined.
Although my uncle worked with a construction team, he had many people to support at home and wasn't well-off.
"Brother, what are you doing? We can't possibly take your money," Lin Guihua quickly interjected.
"You must accept it. I'm so happy today. Our Lin family has produced a cultured person." My sister's child is practically a member of the Lin family.
Seeing that her elder brother insisted on giving it to him, Lin Guihua finally let Liu Yihang accept it.
