However, neither of them knew that today's friction was just an appetizer, and that many more difficult challenges awaited them in the future.
For example, Liu Yansong has been forced to resign, but for some reason, he has never told Lu Rou.
And ever since then, he has continued to leave early and return late every day. Lu Rou always thought he was at work, but it turned out that Liu Yansong had just gone out to find Zhu Qinghao.
However, the only people in the entire capital who knew where Zhu Qinghao was, besides her family, were the aunt who had signed her up for the rural job and the director of their machinery factory.
But these people either had no connection with Liu Yansong or were wary of her, so there was no way they would tell him Zhu Qinghao's whereabouts.
Liu Yansong stayed outside for about ten days. Fortunately, it was cold, and Lu Rou, being a pregnant woman, rarely went out, so he didn't give himself away at all.
Until mid-November, on the day the machinery factory paid wages, Lu Rou specially bought groceries and cooked a meal, happily waiting at home for Liu Yansong to come home for dinner.
But she waited and waited and waited and never saw him. She thought he was still at work, so she had no choice but to go to the gate of the machinery factory with her pregnant belly and food, hoping someone could help her find Liu Yansong.
Coincidentally, the person she called out knew that Liu Yansong had been fired, so he looked at Lu Rou with a complicated expression, and finally told her that Liu Yansong had been fired 10 days ago.
When Lu Rou first heard the news, it was as if she had been struck by lightning.
"What?! What did you say? This is impossible. He didn't tell me. It must be fake. I don't believe it."
Although Lu Rou said she didn't believe it, she actually did.
It turns out she lost her job. No wonder she was so angry that day, even taking it out on a pregnant woman like her.
Now that he's unemployed, where has he been going these past ten days, leaving early and returning late every day? Could he have gone to find Zhu Qing?
Or has he already found him, but he's just hiding him?
Thinking about all these issues, Lu Rou almost lost her balance and nearly fell backward.
At that moment, the man was definitely afraid that Lu Rou would fall in front of him and then try to extort money from him, so he quickly reached out and pulled her up.
As a result, this pull happened to be seen by Liu Yansong, who was rushing over to chase after the person.
"Stop! What are you doing?!"
Lu Rou looked at Liu Yansong, who had deceived her for so long and still didn't believe her at all, with tears in her eyes, without saying a word.
Seeing all this, Liu Yansong assumed that Lu Rou was feeling guilty, so he strode forward and slapped her across the face without a second thought.
"You shameless woman, are you so desperate for a man? I've only been home a short time, and you're already looking for someone else?"
His slap actually missed, so it didn't land fully on Lu Rou's face, but it was still enough to shock her.
After witnessing this scene, the kind-hearted people around quickly spoke up to explain for Lu Rou, saying that she had come to see him. Only then did Liu Yansong realize that he had not yet told Lu Rou that he had resigned from the machinery factory.
When he saw the lunchbox Lu Rou was carrying, he understood that she had probably been waiting for him to come home for dinner, and since he hadn't returned for a long time, she had come to bring him food.
Having figured everything out, he felt guilty again and wanted to take Lu Rou's hand to comfort her, but Lu Rou was no longer willing to let him hold it.
"Liu Yansong, you're disgusting. You lied to me, and not only that, you didn't believe me. Now you've even hit me. I don't know what the point of living like this is..."
