His nonchalant and cynical tone sent a chill down the spines of the three young men.
The reason is simple: the aura that Gu Changzheng unintentionally exudes is simply impossible to ignore.
It was as if he had seen one of his own kind?
Oh no, it shouldn't be described as "the same kind." It should be said that they saw something they couldn't afford to mess with.
The three young men sensed the approaching danger and turned to run.
Gu Changzheng clicked his tongue, picked up a stick in one hand, and stepped forward.
"Don't rush off, we still have some things to discuss."
"..."
Nobody wants to talk to him anymore.
Moreover, this talk might very well involve sticks rather than words, which makes them even less willing to participate.
All I can say is that the greatest success these three people can achieve is probably just being a petty thief.
So when they saw someone even tougher than them, the three of them didn't even have the thought of fighting back. What kind of future can people like that have?
...
Lu Huaijiao waited for about five minutes before Gu Changzheng returned.
He had a faint smile on his face, and his clothes were perfectly neat.
It's clear that things were resolved smoothly.
Fearing that the three of them might get up again and seek revenge, Lu Huaijiao told Gu Changzheng to quickly get on his bicycle and leave the 'crime scene'.
"Crime scene? That's a novel description."
Gu Changzheng said this, but he still quickly rode his bicycle away from the alley.
It wasn't because he was afraid the three people lying in the snow would get up and retaliate, but because he was worried that his wife's health couldn't withstand being outside for too long.
It's cold here, so it's better to go home as soon as possible.
Lu Huaijiao snorted, put her hands in Gu Changzheng's military overcoat pockets, and explained to him why it was called the crime scene.
Simply put, his act of hitting someone was wrong, and if he were arrested by the police, wouldn't that be a crime scene?
Gu Changzheng: ...
Although the daughter-in-law is just a hypothetical scenario, it still sounds impossible.
Those three thugs would never dare to report it to the police.
Back in Tianshui Hutong, Lu Huaijiao went to take a bath, while Gu Changzheng counted the money earned from selling couplets that day.
Their business was good today; they sold out completely and made over 120 yuan.
This amount of money may not be a lot for them, but it is a considerable sum for people who don't run a business.
Gu Changzheng tidied up the money, leaned back on the bed, crossed his legs, listened to the sound of water coming from the toilet, and hummed an unknown tune.
Lu Huaijiao came out and glanced at the man lying on the bed.
Thankfully, he knew to take off his coat before lying down, otherwise I would have been cursing him out.
His gaze fell on the thick stack of banknotes on the table to the side, but he only glanced at it before looking away.
"Wife, give me a hug."
Gu Changzheng sat up in bed and hugged her tightly, burying his head in her chest.
The person who had just taken a shower carried a faint fragrance, and he rubbed his cheeks vigorously.
Its head was furry, and its short buzz cut was incredibly prickly.
Lu Huaijiao suppressed her discomfort and raised her hand to push his head.
"What are you doing? Are you acting like Sanbao, begging for milk?"
There was a hint of reproach in her tone.
Gu Changzheng grumbled and bit her through her clothes.
"Gu Changzheng!"
Lu Huaijiao's face turned green.
It didn't hurt that much, I was just angry. How could someone bite like that?
Are you born in the Year of the Dog?
Gu Changzheng chuckled and nuzzled her head against him.
"Honey, we made over a hundred yuan today."
"Hmm? So what?"
She didn't believe he had nothing more to say.
So it's best to just wait quietly for him to say what he has to say next.
Gu Changzheng did indeed have something left unsaid. After laying the groundwork, he asked, "Do you think you can still earn that much money after you go to school?"
He was too embarrassed to tell him directly that he wasn't going to school.
Instead, they asked a roundabout question.
But Lu Huaijiao could tell.
She lowered her eyes and glanced at the man holding her, then raised her hand without hesitation and slapped him on the head: "If you can go to school now, you should definitely go to school first. It doesn't matter if you start earning money after you finish school."
Don't think she doesn't know what Gu Changzheng is up to.
This man felt that going to school was preventing him from earning money.
"If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to go to school later. What's the use of making a lot of money then if you can't make up for the lost time?"
Moreover, their family is not short of money.
Of course, she hoped that Gu Changzheng could have a very complete life.
Lu Huaijiao, like a caring older sister, patiently explained the reasons to Gu Changzheng.
Gu Changzheng wasn't a confused person; he just had a momentary lapse in judgment.
"I understand, honey."
He nuzzled his head against her soft chest, then looked up at her expectantly: "But honey, why have you suddenly become so sensible?"
Gu Changzheng looked incredulous.
"Get out!"
Lu Huaijiao pushed the fluffy head away impatiently, telling him to go take a shower while she went to sleep.
Gu Changzheng stood up with a smile, kissed her lips a few times, and also gave her two quick kisses on the cheeks, which made Lu Huaijiao extremely disgusted.
"It's all saliva."
She raised her hand to wipe her cheek, glaring at Gu Changzheng with a displeased expression.
"Tsk... You've already eaten, and you're still complaining?"
Gu Changzheng has an incredibly thick skin.
