A person can suddenly realize that they are old.
The past cannot be retrieved, but having someone to chat with is still a good thing.
The anxiety of the night left Shu Hui on edge, but drinking and chatting with Luo Kangcheng dispelled all the gloom in her heart.
Shu Hui felt a little relieved.
The two chatted about their parents, their youthful days, their children's partners, and their youthful exuberance.
They weren't even on the same level. If it weren't for Chu Yu's help, Shu Hui would just be a farmer in the countryside, while Luo Kangcheng was a branch bureau chief. Given Luo Kangcheng's position, the two of them probably wouldn't have been able to have a proper conversation.
We just happened to be able to chat for a few minutes.
That's why I say alcohol is a good thing.
Having lived to a ripe old age, I still don't understand life. It's neither good nor bad. Among parents, children, relatives, and friends, who can really explain it all?
Through the dim light, Shu Hui vaguely saw what Chu Yu looked like when she was just born. At that time, she was a first-time mother and didn't know if she could do a good job. She could only try her best to be good to her child.
In a daze, Shu Hui had a dream in which her daughter went to a new world and transmigrated into the body of a girl with the same name as her daughter.
This girl's father is just as inhuman as Zhou Jian'an. Not only did he have an extramarital affair, but he also got his mistress pregnant. Who knew that after the two got married, they had three daughters in a row, and this scumbag couldn't even produce a son.
That girl is truly outstanding. At such a young age, she has already bought several houses in Beijing, owned two companies, bought a house and a car for her mother, and taken good care of her.
The girl's father had never cared for his daughter. Now that she was old and sick, he came to her asking for money to build a house. Fortunately, the girl was assertive and beat the man who came to ask for money away.
But she wasn't very lucky; a few years later, her mother fell ill and passed away.
Shu Hui felt sorry for the girl and thought to herself that she would be better off being her daughter and would love her dearly and give her motherly care and warmth.
Luo Kangcheng wanted to have a few more drinks with her, but when he looked up, he saw Shu Hui sleeping soundly by the dining table. She looked like she was sleeping very deeply, and he couldn't wake her up even after calling her several times.
Luo Kangcheng also found the situation awkward, as it involved a man and a woman alone together. He put down his wine cup, wiped his hands, helped Shu Hui to the bed, and then tried to help her take off her shoes.
Unfortunately, Shu Hui was wearing a pair of low-top leather shoes with zippers.
Luo Kangcheng, a grown man, had never worn shoes like these before. He didn't know what to do for a while and fiddled with them for quite some time before finally getting them working.
When Chu Chu came back from outside with her bag on her back, she saw a man squatting by her mother's bed, fiddling with her mother's feet.
It does look quite perverted.
Chu Chu figured it must be Cao Gang who had arrived. She picked up a broom and prepared to smash Cao Gang's head in.
Chu Yu had instructed that one should not tolerate bad people, nor should one allow anyone to manipulate or threaten you. You should take up arms and fight back, as this is the only way to protect yourself.
Chu Chu obeyed her sister's every word. She thought about finding a suitable place, hitting Cao Gang with a broom to knock him unconscious, and then finding a rope to tie him up.
Just as Chu Chu raised the broom, before she could even swing it down, "Cao Gang" turned his head, leaving her speechless for a long time.
"Uncle Luo... what are you doing at my house?"
Luo Kangcheng was wearing a black leather jacket; he was quite tall and had a sturdy build.
Men usually gain weight at this age, even veteran police officers, whose bellies are much larger than those of younger officers.
Perhaps because of his past illness, Luo Kangcheng has always insisted on exercising. Every day, he does push-ups, sit-ups, and lifts barbells in the break room. After get off work in the evening, he often runs home, and he maintains a very good physique.
He exuded an aura of righteousness the moment he turned his head, showing no connection whatsoever to the sleazy Cao Gang. Chu Chu felt that she was truly blind to have mistaken Luo Kangcheng for Cao Gang.
Luo Kangcheng was sweating profusely with anxiety. Shu Hui's shoes were difficult to take off, and he had also drunk some wine. He was also thinking about the differences between men and women, so he wasn't very efficient.
After fiddling around for ages, I still couldn't get the boots off.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Chu.
