Li Jin listened angrily to Guo Daming's account of what had happened, and remained silent for a long time.
"Captain, look, that's the gist of it. If there's nothing else, I'll go on patrol." Guo Daming glanced at Li Jin's expression and quickly took his leave.
"Daming, don't call me Captain. Your dad and I used to be friends, like we were kids who peed and played in the mud together. Thank you so much for today. When we have some free time in a couple of days, I'll treat you to a drink." Li Jin patted Guo Daming's shoulder affectionately and saw him to the door.
"Uncle, what are you saying? I'll treat you to drinks another day. My brother-in-law gave me a bottle of Lao Congtai liquor, which I haven't been able to bring myself to drink. Please don't bother with this." Guo Daming very sincerely seized the opportunity.

"Are you still in pain, Brother Song?" Shi Fengfeng looked at Li Song lying on the kang with eyes full of tenderness. Li Song closed his eyes and remained silent as soon as he saw Shi Fengfeng.
Li Wanshi glared fiercely at Shi Fengfeng. She was very dissatisfied with this prospective daughter-in-law, but when she glanced at Aunt Chunhua sitting properly on the stool, she hesitated.
