Yue Siming never mentioned his wife in the end.
Chen Lan followed him for eight years, starting from scratch.
When they first started out in sales, the two of them slept on the streets.
At that time, Chen Lan had just graduated from university and had not yet found a job. She was learning from him, and it was already late at night when the two of them left the client's house.
I missed the last bus, and I can't walk back.
Even sleeping in someone's stairwell feels sweet.
Chen Lan never looked down on him for being poor, and has stayed with him ever since.
"I can be poor with you, but I can't stay poor forever."
Chen Lan cried her eyes out, looking extremely aggrieved.
Yue Siming comforted his wife, listening to her recount her hardships: "Last year we bought a house, and there wasn't much money left in our bank account. This year, your father had surgery and we had to pay for the operation. I've been running around doing everything I can to save money by not hiring a caregiver."
"I originally planned to resign in order to take care of the elderly and prepare for pregnancy."
"But you're still like this, how dare I quit my job? If I quit, will the whole family depend on you to support us?"
Do you still want the child?
Chen Lan spoke with tears streaming down her face, while Yue Siming's throat moved, but he couldn't speak.
When you reach thirty, some principles have to be changed, even if they don't remain the same.
My wife has changed too; we all need to consider practical matters.
Just then, Lin Zhenzhen's voice came in, "Cousin, don't worry, I'm here to help you today."
Yue Siming hung his head and remained silent; he was about to go against his principles.
Sometimes people might have to resort to back channels or shady methods to make a quick buck.
Just half an hour ago, he was righteously telling his cousin to get lost and mind her own business.
In a society where personal connections matter, how could a thirty-year-old naively utter such a sentence?
That's so stupid.
That "dark horse" has connections and knows how to get things done; he's a top student who graduated from Peking University. What am I compared to him?
"Is there still money left at home to give gifts?" Yue Siming remained silent for a long time before finally asking this question.
Chen Lan burst into laughter through her tears: "If we don't have money, we'll borrow some. No matter what, we have to give the gift!"
"Don't worry, I know you care about your reputation." Chen Lan had already made up her mind. "If you can't bring yourself to do it, then I'll go."
"Just pretend you don't know anything about this. If it gets exposed, just say it was the family's doing."
"It has nothing to do with you!"
Chen Lan completely distanced herself from Yue Siming, then turned to look at her cousin Lin Zhenzhen—
"Besides, I have my little sister to help me."
“Zhenzhen can lend me money.”
The woman looked earnest; she placed all her hopes on Lin Zhenzhen.
"Right? Zhenzhen?"
"Of course." Lin Zhenzhen walked over with a smile, her tone gentle: "Of course I will help you."
"We're family."
......
Fu Sheng was somewhat surprised when he received a call from the small shop.
The shop owner said, "What kind of person did you introduce? He's been here for ages, neither going in nor going home, blocking my business."
You could tell it was Li Fu just by hearing his name.
What a silly boy, he's never even tasted the flavor of a woman.
Fu Sheng found it novel, and it just so happened that he hadn't relieved his desires in a long time—
Yoshiko Takeuchi kept trying to drag him to a medical check-up, but the doctor said he couldn't have sex because his lover was pregnant.
Then the only option is to hire a prostitute.
Thinking of this, Fu Sheng hailed a Xiali car to take his lover inside. "I have things to do. You go home first, and I'll call you later."
"good."
After explaining things to the taxi driver, Fu Sheng drove to the small shop.
He wanted to see just how innocent Li Fu really was.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped outside a small alley, behind which was a bustling night market.
The alley was brightly lit, with blue, red, and white striped lampposts outside the shops turning back and forth, but only a small lamp was lit inside.
In the dim light, the beast within seemed to finally break free of its cage and leap down.
Here you can be your most authentic self.
This is the place where Fu Sheng can truly relax.
Spending too much time in high-class settings can feel unnatural.
As soon as Fu Sheng, dressed in a well-tailored suit, entered, he was surrounded.
You can tell they're rich just by looking at their clothes and appearance.
The compensation for their hard work will be quite generous.
"Boss, do you know anyone here?" The long-haired beauty in the tank top took his arm first, pressed it against her chest, and leaned in to say, "If not, come with me."
"You'll be satisfied."
Fu Sheng pointed inside and saw Li Fu sitting blankly in a chair.
With his large size and muscular build, he stands out conspicuously when he sits down.
He exudes a strong aura of hormones, and with his robust physique, it's no wonder that women are drawn to him.
But as soon as I got there, I was scared away by the person's eyes.
Upon seeing a familiar face, Li Fu relaxed and stood up, looking at his boss without knowing what to say.
Fu Sheng smiled and asked, "Never done it before?"
Before Li Fu could answer, the proprietress came out.
Upon seeing Fu Sheng, she immediately began to complain, "You know, nobody here likes to mentor newcomers, and it's even more impossible to have a designated girl."
Newcomers are often hesitant and lack the necessary skills, which can lead to pain and even bleeding.
"If we weren't familiar with each other, I wouldn't have arranged for that girl to come," the landlady complained. "But you didn't tell me her height and weight. With a body like that, which girl would dare to take her?"
At this point, the proprietress glanced at Li Fu and continued, "Luckily, that girl has a good temper and agreed, but you, her brother, still chose her."
"Hey, thank you for your hard work." Fu Sheng pulled out a banknote and stuffed it into her arms, giving her a wink.
The proprietress went in to call someone.
"Li Fu," Fu Sheng called softly, "I've arranged everything for you, aren't you being a bit disrespectful to me?"
"If you didn't want to, you wouldn't have come here."
"Hurry up." Fu Sheng walked ahead, with Li Fu following behind.
"Brother." A woman rushed towards him and threw herself into Fu Sheng's arms.
It seemed to be an old acquaintance. Knowing that it was inconvenient for Li Fu to stand there, he turned his head and saw the woman who had been arranged for him earlier.
She had a good figure and appearance, but stood there timidly.
Let's go.
Li Fu had the woman lead the way, and the room was conveniently arranged next to Fu Sheng's.
Seeing Li Fu enter, Fu Sheng felt relieved.
He took a couple of bites of the woman in his arms and then started unbuckling his belt.
...
Li Fu was self-taught.
He thought that this would relieve his pain.
But the crack in his heart grew wider and wider.
My mind is filled with thoughts of another person.
No, this won't work.
Li Fu pursed his lips tightly, his gaze was cold, and he couldn't hear anything.
until--
He felt the warm water on his arm.
The woman cried, and she just looked at her, tears streaming down her face.
Li Fu closed his eyes, and at that moment, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.
It turns out that the same thing happens to people you don't like.
You won't feel happy.
The spiritual emptiness was irreplaceable, so Li Fu tidied himself up and went outside.
He had something to say to Fu Sheng.
