Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

"Do I really have no chance at all?" Zhao Kaiqi felt as if all the air had been sucked out of his body. He collapsed on the bed with lifeless eyes.

Weng Xiaoyue kept crying and refused to give a definite answer.

Zhao Kaiqi said weakly, "Xiaoyue, I want to be alone for a while, please go."

Weng Xiaoyue hesitated and said, "Brother Qi, I...I am worried about you. Let me stay for a while. I want to take care of you."

"Xiaoyue, you..." Zhao Kaiqi's eyes seemed to have seen a glimmer of light again, "Xiaoyue, you still care about me, right?"

"Of course I care about you, Brother Qi. We grew up together, and you are the person I care about most."

"Then why don't you marry me?"

"I...I'm sorry, Brother Qi, I really just like you as a brother."

"I see. The person you love is Zheng Nanxin. Okay, I won't force you. Xiaoyue, please don't distance yourself from me, okay?"

"Of course, you are my brother Qi, and I will never alienate you in this life."

Weng Xiaoyue stayed with Zhao Kaiqi for half a day, and only left reluctantly when it got dark.

When he got home, Zheng Nanxin was reading a newspaper on the sofa. Weng Xiaoyue pouted and sat beside him with an unhappy look on her face. "Brother Nanxin, where did you go today? I went to the company to look for you, but I didn't see you."

"Why did you come to the company to see me?" Zheng Nanxin frowned and looked at her unhappily.

Weng Xiaoyue pouted in grievance, "I just wanted to ask you what you want to eat on Mid-Autumn Festival. I'll ask the chef to prepare it in advance."

"Just because of this?"

Zheng Nanxin said seriously, "From now on, you are not allowed to go to the company unless it is important."

"Got it, Brother Nanxin."

Weng Xiaoyue was feeling depressed and had the urge to go to the hospital to talk it out, but it was too dark outside and she didn't dare to go alone.

The next morning, after seeing Zheng Nanxin off, Weng Xiaoyue hurriedly called a motorcycle taxi and followed Zheng Nanxin's car.

Seeing the car enter the company's parking lot, Weng Xiaoyue took a motorcycle taxi to the hospital.

But what she didn't know was that not long after she left, Zheng Nanxin's car came out of the parking lot again, followed by a truck.

Soon, two cars stopped in front of Kangbao Department Store.

Yuanchun pointed to a pile of things in the corner of the store and said, "Boss Zheng, this is what you ordered. Please check the order."

"No, I trust you."

"Let's check the order and make sure it's correct before moving the goods."

Seeing that she insisted, Zheng Nanxin had no choice but to take out the list and let the truck driver check it. He asked Yuanchun, "Do you have any cigarettes?"

"Yes, the goods arrived this morning. They are in the warehouse and haven't been put out yet." Yuanchun paused and asked, "Do you want to smoke?"

"Well, give me a pack of Double Happiness."

"Then wait a moment."

Please...you...collect_6191 book 1 bar (six \\\n\\\\book\\\\bar!)

Yuanchun turned and went to the warehouse.

Zheng Nanxin looked at her back with a little disappointment in his eyes.

Once upon a time, she hated men smoking the most. She repeatedly warned him not to learn to smoke, and he did it. However, she turned around and married another man.

After that, he learned to smoke, play cards, drink, pick up girls, sing, and act crazy when drunk.

No one cares about him anymore.

He thought that knowing that he smoked, she would care about him and take care of him, but... it seemed like there was a hole in his heart again.

His pain and sorrow were leaking out from that hole and spreading to every part of his body.
