"Yueyue, aren't your parents coming back for the Chinese New Year?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yueyue, who was sitting in the back row, immediately looked dejected.
She pouted and said, "Daddy Chu, my dad called a few days ago and said he can't come back for the New Year."
Wang Jun and Li Qiaoyun truly exemplify what it means for a couple to be in true love, and for their child to be an accident.
When she gave birth, Li Qiaoyun stayed at home due to health reasons. Six months later, she returned to the Northeast Army. The child stayed with her grandmother or Li Chu and others.
When Wang Jun and his wife were transferred back a few years later, their child was no longer close to them.
The couple didn't seem to care; they just went to work and did whatever they wanted.
Wang Jun only gets a little jealous when he sees his daughter being affectionate with Li Chu and the others.
Last October, Wang Jun was sent to the southwest for training as an operations staff officer. Li Qiaoyun insisted on going with him, and now she can't even come back for the New Year.
The key point is that they told everyone they left, but they forgot about their daughter.
As it turned out, Wang Yueyue learned the news from her grandfather, which angered her so much that she ran away from home that very night.
Of course, her running away from home meant leaving her own home to come to Li Chu's place.
But as parents, you don't even know what it means when someone is missing from the family?
It was already 10 p.m. when Wang Yueyue arrived. It was autumn then, and the temperature was still quite low at night.
When Li Chu opened the door, he was terrified to see Wang Yueyue, who was only wearing thin clothes, with disheveled hair and swollen eyes from crying.
After Ding Qiunan found out what had happened, Li Chu couldn't suppress his anger any longer.
Good grief, you two are really something as parents. You didn't even know your child went out late at night.
It's incredibly fortunate that a girl like her survived walking for over an hour at night without any incident.
Li Chu immediately got dressed and drove straight to Wang Jun's house.
When Li Chu arrived, the couple had already gone to bed.
Upon meeting, Li Chu didn't say a word and immediately gave Wang Jun a cannonball.
Li Qiaoyun, who followed her out, screamed in fright, attracting the attention of her neighbors and the sentry at the gate.
When the crowd finally pulled the two of them apart, Wang Jun was nearly beaten to a pulp.
“Wang Jun, Li Qiaoyun, you two are not fit to be parents.”
Li Chu's words stunned everyone; they hadn't yet figured out what had happened.
Wang Jun and Li Qiaoyun were even more bewildered; they had been beaten up as soon as they opened the door and had no idea what had happened.
"Li Chu, what's wrong with you? Coming to my house in the middle of the night to beat me up. How are we unfit to be parents?"
fantuantanshu.
"Pah, don't you dare insult the word 'parents'. I'm asking you, where's Yueyue?"
"It's in her house!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jun realized something was wrong; despite making such a commotion, the child hadn't come out.
Li Qiaoyun, who was supporting her husband, also realized that something was wrong, so she quickly let go of his hand and ran to Wang Yueyue's house to check.
"Junzi, Yueyue is missing."
Now everyone realized what had happened and looked at Wang Jun and Li Qiaoyun with strange expressions.
The sentry at the gate then spoke up: "More than two hours ago, when I first came on duty, I saw Wang Yueyue running out. I thought you, Staff Officer Wang, knew about this."
Two hours ago, wow, you guys are really something, the child ran away and you didn't even know.
Li Chu broke free from the hands of the people holding him, walked up to Wang Jun, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up.
“Wang Jun, I can understand that you two don’t usually care about Yueyue, but you’re being way too indifferent to the child. It’s late at night, and she ran out crying all by herself, taking more than an hour to get to my place. What if something happened to her on the way? Huh? Tell me what to do?”
He loosened Wang Jun's collar and gave him a shove, causing the unsuspecting Wang Jun to fall to the ground with a thud.
"And you, Li Qiaoyun, do you even deserve to be a mother? I've never seen such irresponsible parents."
Standing at the door of Yueyue's room, Li Qiaoyun was crying so hard she couldn't speak.
Li Chu, who had just hit Wang Jun, felt a little better. He turned to his neighbors and said, "I'm sorry, everyone, I made you all laugh. It's alright now, go back and rest."
After seeing the neighbor off, Li Chu closed the door.
At this moment, Wang Jun also stood up, enduring the pain on his face, and apologized to Li Chu with a face full of remorse.
"What are you talking about? You two, hurry up and change your clothes, come with me, and go talk to Yueyue. I don't care about your apologies."
Twenty minutes later, at Li Chu's house.
Wang Jun and Li Qiaoyun were standing at the door of Wang Yueyue's house, knocking on the door and apologizing to the children inside.
Ding Qiunan stood aside watching the couple, and she was also furious.
But when she saw Wang Jun's face, she wanted to laugh again.
After this period of time, Wang Jun's face was completely swollen, covered in bruises, making him look even more like a pig's head.
Ding Qiunan raised her hand and patted her husband beside her, whispering, "You're too ruthless. Look what you've done to him."
"Hmph, if I don't hit him hard, he'll never remember."
The commotion finally caught the attention of Li Qin next door.
Worried that something unexpected might happen, she woke up both Wang Ziwen and Wang Jiadong.
Several people walked out through the small door together, with Wang Jiadong holding his sidearm in his hand.
After arriving and finding nothing amiss, Wang Jiadong put the gun away.
"What's wrong?"
Li Qin looked at Wang Jun and his wife, who were knocking on the door, and then at her younger brother and sister-in-law.
She didn't recognize Wang Jun at first glance.
Ding Qiunan took Li Qin's hand and told her what had just happened.
Li Qin spat out, "Serves them right. What kind of parents are they? If you ask me, Xiao Chu didn't get a good beating. If Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang find out about this, you'll see if they can skin them alive."
"Alright, let's go back and rest."
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Li Qin and the others went back.
Li Chu and Wang Jun are in-laws, so whatever they do is a family matter, and she, as the older sister, shouldn't interfere.
In the end, it was Ding Qiunan who intervened and got Wang Yueyue to open the door.
Seeing her father's miserable state, Wang Yueyue, who had been keeping a straight face and looking unhappy, burst out laughing.
Seeing Wang Yueyue laughing so hard she was practically quacking like a goose, Ding Qiunan rolled her eyes helplessly. Your dad was beaten up like that, and you, as his daughter, are laughing so happily? Is that really okay?
Wang Jun and Li Qiaoyun breathed a long sigh of relief; their daughter could still smile, which was not bad.
Wang Jun, who had just felt relieved, suddenly felt even more pain on his face.
"Li Chu, you went too far."
"I'm ruthless? You should think about whether Uncle Wang will beat you up tomorrow."
