Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chapter 525 Saving the Poor Half-Deaf Child 07

The lights inside weren't as dim as outside. There was a bed in the living room, which was where Liang Qinghe slept.

There was a small room inside, Liang Yuchen's small room, with a single bed, a desk made by Liang Qinghe, a small bookcase, and a desk lamp.

The two-seater leather sofa in the living room had several holes, exposing the foam inside. On a wooden shelf sat a piece of white floor tile that they had picked up, which served as their coffee table and dining table.

There were two low wooden stools on the ground. Liang Yucheng brought in the dishes, while Liang Qinghe sat on the old sofa, staring blankly at his phone.

Two bowls of rice were already on the table, and Liang Yucheng sat on a low stool.

"Dad, eat first."

Liang Qinghe seemed not to hear, so Liang Yucheng called again, "Dad?"

"Oh? Okay, let's eat."

The father and son ate their fill from a simple stir-fried vegetable and pork dish.

Liang Yucheng knew that her father would only eat meat when she came home; when they were really short of money, they would eat cured meat.

When I'm not home, my dad eats the vegetables he grows.

After the meal, Liang Yucheng went to wash the dishes. The kitchen was just a small partitioned room under the eaves, and vegetables and dishes had to be washed at the tap in the yard.

The father and son sat in the living room chatting as usual. When talking about school life, Liang Yucheng always shared with a smile the interesting things that happened at school.

Although he only witnessed those interesting events from others, he was merely an observer.

It was only in front of his father that he spoke clearly and fluently, without mentioning a word about being bullied at school.

The little black cat stood in the yard watching the father and son interact, and spoke to Akahoshi:

Liang Qinghe has a serious heart condition, but he's been keeping it a secret from Liang Yucheng and has been saving money for her.

Akahoshi was in a coffee shop not far from the urban village, and he was unhappy because he couldn't see Ayu.

"It's Friday today. Mom said you didn't come home?"

The woman's voice on the other end of the phone was cold and carried the intimidating aura of someone in a superior position—an aura that Chi Lan had cultivated over many years in the group.

Chi Xing's older brother is named Chi Jin, and her older sister is named Chi Lan. They both work for the group.

They doted on their younger brother, Akahoshi, but didn't spoil him. They wouldn't allow him to stay out all weekend or at night.

"Yeah, I'll be back a little later tonight. I have something to do. Sister, could you tell Mom?" Akahoshi spoke calmly, not like she was lying.

There was a moment of silence on the other end before a voice said, "Okay, 10:30 tonight, no bad things allowed."

"How could that be? Your younger brother is a model student. I only ever help my classmates and never do anything bad."

Chi Lan chuckled, "You little rascal, have the driver pick you up when you come back."

"I know, I know."

After hanging up the phone, Akahoshi began to carefully review the original plot.

250: [This world is a bit complicated. The main characters have changed. The original main character was Huo Jingchen (the seme) and Liang Qinghe (the uke).]

The story often ends at the happiest moment, but it is not the end of the protagonist's life.

Akahoshi stared at the dense text, getting angrier and angrier, and increasingly wanting to hit someone.

This is the story of two young men from the same village who rely on each other and depend on each other for survival.

Liang Qinghe lost his parents at a young age and was raised by his grandmother. At that time, compulsory education was not yet widespread, and in order not to be a burden on his grandmother, Liang Qinghe dropped out of school at the age of thirteen.

He went to construction sites to carry cement to earn money, but money wasn't easy to earn back then, and he used all his money to treat his grandmother's illness.

When Liang Qinghe was fifteen, his grandmother passed away, and he was left alone in the Liang family.

He was introduced to a job in town and on his way there, he rescued a junior high school student, Huo Jingchen, in an alley. The two became friends.

Huo Jingchen's family was poor and they didn't plan to support him through high school. When Liang Qinghe saw him crying so sadly, perhaps seeing her own past self, she felt a pang of sympathy.

Coupled with her inexplicable fondness for Huo Jingchen, Liang Qinghe, who was all alone, said she would support his schooling.

Like brothers, the two rented a small apartment and went through a difficult junior and senior high school years.

Huo Jingchen got into the best university in City A as he wished, and also came out to his family, saying that he liked Liang Qinghe and wanted to be with him.

The sight of two men together was considered shocking and unheard of by the villagers.

The village was in an uproar, with everyone talking about them.

Liang Qinghe never expected Huo Jingchen to go to such lengths for him, and he was deeply moved.

Enraged, Huo Jingchen's parents kicked him out of the village, and the two were expelled from the village, thus embarking on their journey to City A.

They rented a small courtyard in City A. The rent was cheap, and they stayed there for four years.

Liang Qinghe found work on a construction site. The wages were high in the big city, and Huo Jingchen had a scholarship to support him. The two of them saved up a small amount of money.

University life flew by, and Huo Jingchen graduated smoothly.

They decided to adopt a child together from an orphanage; the child would belong to both of them.

There are few healthy children in orphanages, and even if there are, they are quickly adopted.

When they arrived, they immediately noticed the thin, lonely child in the corner.

After getting to know him, Liang Qinghe learned that he was a pitiful little boy who was partially deaf. Liang Qinghe felt a connection with him at first sight, and since the child was the smallest and thinnest in the orphanage, Liang Qinghe really wanted to give him a home.

Huo Jingchen agreed to the adoption and allowed the child to take Liang Qinghe's surname. Liang Qinghe named the child Liang Yuchen.

The family of three lived a happy and joyful life for a period of time, which is the ending of the book.

250: [From this point on, Liang Yucheng's story begins.]

Red Star looked down.

After graduating from university, Huo Jingchen found a good job, but his studies would not stop there.

Liang Qinghe felt that college was enough, but he couldn't bear to disappoint Huo Jingchen, so he and his son ultimately supported him in pursuing a master's degree.

Some people are born to be good at studying.

Liang Qinghe's judgment was correct. Huo Jingchen completed his master's and doctoral studies. He was a key student being cultivated by the school, a researcher admired by his classmates, and a favorite student of his mentors.

He was not a good husband or a good father.

Huo Jingchen graduated with a master's degree and went out to celebrate with his friends. Liang Yucheng was only five years old, and it was not appropriate to bring her to such a drinking party.

Liang Qinghe stayed home to take care of Huo Jingchen. He bought a cake and prepared to celebrate with Huo Jingchen alone.

At midnight, Huo Jingchen hadn't returned home, so Liang Qinghe called to ask.

The man's heavy breathing, the woman's soft, seductive moans...

After dropping her phone, Liang Qing asked her landlord to look after Liang Yuchen and went to the hotel alone.

Huo Jingchen cheated on Liang Qinghe, who vomited blood and fainted on the spot.

When Liang Qinghe was rushed to the hospital, Huo Jingchen learned that Liang Qinghe's health had been severely depleted over the years due to his efforts to earn money for his schooling.

Most importantly, Liang Qinghe was diagnosed with heart disease.

Huo Jingchen couldn't believe that he, who loved Liang Qinghe so deeply, had betrayed him and caused him to fall seriously ill.

Liang Qinghe was hospitalized for a month, and Huo Jingchen took care of him along with Liang Yuchen.

In front of Liang Qinghe, Huo Jingchen knelt on the ground to admit his mistake, slapped himself, cursed himself as an animal, and said that he knew he was wrong and would definitely change in the future.
