Liu Aimei and Song Guomin still haven't reconciled.
This is the longest cold war the two have ever had, lasting almost a month.
Song Guomin had no energy left to talk to Liu Aimei. The two slept in the same bed that night, but their thoughts were worlds apart.
Liu Aimei had Monday off. She sent her two children to daycare, then went home to change into a newly bought dress before meeting Tong Hongyun.
Ever since she first met Tong Hongyun while taking a walk downstairs, Liu Aimei continued to go for a walk every night after dinner, and the two bumped into each other several more times.
One time, when Liu Aimei got off work, Tong Hongyun's car was waiting by the side of the road outside the mall.
Liu Aimei got into the car.
That's how things happened between adult men and women.
After Liu Aimei got home that night, she took a long shower. Now that it's getting cold, she's wearing long-sleeved pajamas and pants. She and Song Guomin were still arguing, and Song Guomin didn't want to or had time to notice her strange behavior.
Once there is one, there will be two and three.
The apartment that Tong Hongyun owned near Liu Aimei's neighborhood became a place for the two to stay temporarily.
...
In a short time, Liu Aimei became radiant and her wallet was much fuller. However, she still did not deposit the five hundred yuan into her savings account, but hid it away separately.
This was all her private savings.
My wardrobe is now filled with many new designer clothes.
The Tong family had been targeted by the Qin family before, but they had saved a lot of money over the years and had enough to live on, enough for Tong Hongyun to squander.
Once your mind wanders, there's no going back.
After the couple had been in a cold war for almost a month and a half, Song Guomin took the initiative to apologize and bought groceries after getting off work.
Liu Aimei got home around eight o'clock.
Song Guomin had already prepared a meal, and both children were sitting at the table. Song Guomin frowned and broke the silence, "You worked overtime?"
On her way back, Liu Aimei washed her face with cold water to remove the blush and smudged lips. She said coldly, "It's none of your business."
Song Guomin remained silent.
Liu Aimei didn't even look at the two children before going straight into the room, closing and locking the door.
Song Guomin sat down, his lungs throbbing with pain, and his face looked terrible. He said to Yan Yan and Lele, "Let's eat first."
...
Soon it was time for Xu Songyuan and Xu Zhongtang to conduct their second drug trial.
Xu Songyuan still insisted on coming.
He wanted to know whether the test drug Xu Zhongtang mentioned was real or fake!
They had been testing the drugs in two injection rooms, and Xu Songyuan had never seen a needle being inserted into Xu Zhongtang's body.
This time, Xu Songyuan went into the injection room first. He sat down in the chair, felt dizzy, and looked sickly. He stood up again and said, "Doctor, I need to go to the restroom first."
The doctor waved his hand, "Go ahead."
Xu Songyuan left the injection room, closed the door behind him, and then stood at the door of the next injection room, looking through the glass at what was happening inside.
Xu Zhongtang was seen chatting and laughing with the doctor inside. Xu Zhongtang was sitting on a chair by the wall, showing no sign of taking off his clothes to get acupuncture!
No wonder.
Xu Songyuan didn't stay long and left to go to the restroom.
He calmed down.
No wonder Xu Zhongtang's face didn't change and his body was as strong as an ox. He was tricked into coming to the hospital to try the drug so that he could earn money for Xu Xue's dowry. Once the dowry money was enough, he would use Xu Xue to ask for money back for Xu Peng's gambling debts.
Xu Songyuan was so angry that his chest hurt.
OK!
Even clay figures have a bit of temper!
Xu Songyuan quickly composed himself and weakly returned to the injection room, where Xu Zhongtang was waiting.
"Hey? Brother, come quick, we'll go back after the injection."
The doctor glanced at Xu Zhongtang and then said to Xu Songyuan, "Are you feeling unwell? This is only a minimum interval of two weeks. Come back when you're feeling better, or even a month or two later."
Xu Songyuan shared the same thought, and a look of gratitude appeared on his face.
"Thank you so much, doctor. My body is acting up and I've wasted your time."
Doctor: "Go out."
Xu Songyuan lifted his foot to leave.
Xu Zhongtang was stunned. "Brother? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Wasn't everything fine on the way here?
Xu Songyuan sighed: "Maybe it's because I'm getting old, second son, you don't know, I haven't had any strength lately."
Xu Zhongtang's eyes darted around, suppressing the urge to press Xu Songyuan onto the bench.
There were robbers lurking outside the hospital; we've made a wasted trip!
Xu Zhongtang suppressed his anger and said to Xu Songyuan, "Then let's go out."
Xu Songyuan pretended not to see Xu Zhongtang's expression.
Perhaps to make amends, Xu Zhongtang deliberately said, "Brother, it seems your health is still not good. I've tried so many medicines, and look, you don't get out of breath when you walk, and you work quickly. Isn't that great?"
Xu Songyuan twitched his lips.
"Yes, I really envy you. You made money again this time."
As he left the hospital, Xu Songyuan deliberately walked slowly this time.
As usual, not long after they walked, someone rushed up from behind, quickly groped Xu Songyuan's pocket, found nothing, and ran away in a second or two.
Xu Songyuan then turned around, his face full of anger: "Second brother, someone stole money again! This time I'm broke!"
Xu Zhongtang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the man had run far away, clearly not wanting to talk anymore.
"Let's go home first."
Xu Songyuan sneered inwardly.
Just then, Xu Songyuan suddenly slapped his forehead. "Oh right, second brother, that girl said she'd find me a job, I can earn ten yuan a month. I'm going to wait for her at the noodle shop. Second brother, do you want to come with me?"
The second son usually works in town driving a tractor to transport timber, earning twenty or thirty yuan a month.
They looked down on Xu Songyuan's paltry sums.
Xu Zhongtang frowned: "Why didn't you say that before?"
Xu Songyuan sighed: "I've had no memory at all lately, the aftereffects are really bad, I just forgot. We'll wait for her to come and ask her what she does."
Xu Zhongtang: "Brother, I have to go back to town to work, so I won't wait for you. You wait here."
Xu Songyuan, panting, said, "That's fine then, you can go back now."
Xu Songyuan only entered the noodle shop after seeing Xu Zhongtang walk away, where Xu Guiying was already waiting.
