During the meal, everyone talked about the children, and Liu Yutian and his wife were all smiles.

Only Qin Chunyan was looking forward to leaving quickly.

This was the first time Qin Chunyan had ever been pregnant, and now that it was out in the open, she felt incredibly uncomfortable.

At first, Qin Chunyan was too embarrassed to pick up any food.

Later on, the food in front of him would pile up into a small mountain.

Qin Chunyan said several times that she was full before Zhang Guilan finally put down her chopsticks.

Two happy events happened in my family today.

The first thing is that Qin Chunyan is pregnant, and Liu Xinguo and his wife will soon become parents.

Another point is that Liu Jia truly became a businessman.

Although selling defective clay pots may sound unpleasant, the money you can make is limited.

Zhang Guilan said directly in front of everyone that she had never seen so much money before.

These words were somewhat of a slap in the face to Liu Yutian, but they were an undeniable fact.

Liu Jia is making money, and he's making more and more money!

That evening, Liu Jia wanted Qin Tianming to stay in his room, but Qin Tianming said he was going to the factory to find Liu Jianye.

After Liu Jia asked for a long time, Qin Tianming finally revealed the reason.

"Third Brother, I know you're worried I won't get enough rest, but I'm here to help you, so naturally I have to stay at the factory."

"Besides, there are places to stay in the factory, and it's a lively place with lots of people. I also want to get to know Zhao Xiaochao and the others better."

"Third Brother, don't worry, I'll be all ready when you go to the factory."

Liu Jia knew Qin Tianming's thoughts; he was determined to make a name for himself.

As the saying goes, it's not about fighting for a steamed bun, it's about saving face.

Having given your heart and soul only to be tricked, any man with a backbone would not swallow such an insult.

Even if we don't show it to others, we have to let that unfaithful woman see it!

Seeing Qin Tianming's persistence, Liu Jia did not continue to stop him and simply agreed.

Early the next morning.

After finishing his meal, Liu Jia went to find Qin Tianming, and the two of them drove off in the tractor again.

It was like this for several days.

the other side.

Cao Xiangyang also had no peace during this period.

Ever since he learned that the medicine the old man gave him was ineffective, Cao Xiangyang has been lingering at the crossroads.

For several days in a row, Cao Xiangyang kept staring at the spot where the old man in Xi'an used to set up his stall.

Even on rainy days, Cao Xiangyang never missed a day.

Cao Xiangyang didn't care about the money; it meant nothing to him. What angered him was the old man's deception!

Any claim that medicine can cure all diseases is utter nonsense!

Luckily, I only bought seven days' worth of medicine. If I had bought a year's worth, I would have been ripped off.

At first, Cao Xiangyang couldn't calm down at all, and even slapped himself several times.

My father works in sales; isn't selling things quickly his forte?

I never imagined I would make such a fool of myself in front of my own son!

Seeing her son leave early and return late, Zhao Caizhi was also very puzzled.

That noon, when Zhao Caizhi saw Cao Xiangyang about to go out again, she hurriedly stopped him.

"Son, where are you going in this heat? Why aren't you resting for a while at midday? Be careful not to get sunburned."

"It's okay, I'm just going out for a walk, I'll be right back."

As Cao Xiangyang spoke, he started to walk out, but this time, Zhao Caizhi stepped in front of him and blocked his way.

"You always say that, and you always come back so late. Tell Mom, is something wrong?"

Zhao Caizhi was anxious and held onto Cao Xiangyang's arm tightly.

Cao Xiangyang tried his best to pull away, but he couldn't break free.

"Mom, don't hold me back, I'll really be back in a bit."

"You need to explain yourself clearly, or I won't let you leave."

The more Cao Xiangyang said this, the more worried Zhao Caizhi became.

Finally, seeing that Cao Xiangyang was determined to leave, Zhao Caizhi started throwing a tantrum.

"Alright, stop your weird talk all day long, when will you ever stop? Let your son go out, he's a grown man, how could he get lost?"

Hearing the arguing outside, Cao Zhongsheng came out of the house.

Before he could even stand up straight, he shouted two words at Zhao Caizhi.

Zhao Caizhi looked aggrieved, and her lips began to tremble with anger.

"I can't live in this house anymore! The father is never home, the son is never home! And now I can't even ask him anything?"

"Who told you to ask? You're a grown woman, how could you possibly get lost? Your home is right here, do you not know which way is north or south?"

Recently, sales have been poor, and Cao Zhongsheng has been feeling down.

He was already seething with anger, and when he heard Zhao Caizhi talking nonstop, he naturally didn't have anything nice to say when he retorted.

Zhao Caizhi was speechless after being confronted, and finally she turned her back on the matter!

"Go wherever you want, but it's best if you never come back. That way, I won't have to cook!"

After yelling that, Zhao Caizhi went back to her room.

Cao Zhongsheng, carrying his briefcase, walked up to Cao Xiangyang in a few steps.

"Son, go do what you're supposed to do, don't listen to your mother's nonsense!"

"You don't have much time left in Yecheng. You'll be going to university soon, so you should relax and unwind now."

"Go!"

Seeing Cao Zhongsheng's support warmed Cao Xiangyang's heart, and he even felt a little guilty.

I was deceived because I kept it from my parents and believed that old man.

Now that his father has sided with him without asking any questions, he doesn't know what to say.

"Dad, I'll definitely be back soon. I have something to take care of right now."

"Dad knows, my son is all grown up now, and there are some things he doesn't want to talk about anymore. Dad understands. Goodbye!"

Cao Zhongsheng smiled at Cao Xiangyang, a hint of something else in his eyes.

Cao Xiangyang was completely bewildered.

Does Dad understand?

Understand what?

Did he think he was having a girlfriend behind their backs?

That's hilarious!

I wish that were true.

Cao Xiangyang lowered his eyelids, pursed his lips helplessly, and was about to say something when Cao Zhongsheng had already left.

Get out of the house.

Cao Xiangyang made up his mind once again: today, he would stop that old man no matter what.

I've already wasted too much time on this. If I can't stop it today, I won't go tomorrow.

in fact.

Cao Xiangyang understood that the old man, having swindled so much money from him, must have already moved on to a new scheme.

But Cao Xiangyang was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

Just thinking about what the old man had said to him made Cao Xiangyang grit his teeth involuntarily!

Damn it!

Don't let me run into you!

Otherwise, you'll definitely regret it!

……

Ever since her family started pressuring her to get married, Guo Xiaolan has never been able to put her mind at ease.

Guo Xiaoyan had an excuse: other people go to university and should focus all their energy on their studies.

Therefore, it's perfectly normal not to be in a relationship for a while.

My eldest brother, Guo Jianjun, is so busy every day that he's never home, and he doesn't even eat on time.

The parents were also aware that driving for a leader meant that the hours were not fixed.

Therefore, the father did not impose strict requirements on his eldest brother's personal matters.

In the end, all that was left was oneself.

I don't need to go to university, and I have a stable job.

It seems like it would be really unreasonable not to find someone to marry at this point.

After sorting out the matter, Guo Xiaolan came to a conclusion.

That day, my father called a meeting with the three of them, but the meeting was entirely focused on him.

With a helpless sigh, Guo Xiaolan rested her chin on her hand, her eyes dimming.

It's 2 PM now, and the blazing sun outside is so strong it's practically baking you in heat.

At this hour, nobody wants to go out unless it's absolutely necessary.

The library staff also seemed listless.

As everyone knows, generally speaking, fewer people come to borrow books in the afternoon than in the morning, and fewer people come to borrow books before 3 p.m. than after 3 p.m.

Working in the library is easy, but it's time-consuming and requires constant supervision.

In such situations, Guo Xiaolan would usually pick up a book to pass the time.

"Guo Xiaolan, are you not busy right now? Can I talk to you?"

Guo Xiaolan hadn't even read a few pages of the book in front of her when a familiar voice suddenly rang out.

Instinctively, Guo Xiaolan looked up.

The moment Guo Xiaolan saw Zhao Bin, her brows immediately furrowed.

Why is this person like this?

I've already explained everything to him clearly, why won't he give up?

He goes to the library every few days, but he doesn't borrow any books or learn anything. He just stays there all the time. I don't know what to say!

At this moment, Guo Xiaolan even envied Guo Xiaoyan's temperament.

Don't let her delicate appearance fool you; her temper is something not to be trifled with.

If the same thing happened, given Guo Xiaoyan's temperament, she would probably have handled it well long ago.

But sometimes, I just can't bring myself to speak up.

"Guo Xiaolan, I don't know what you've heard, but please believe me, my feelings for you remain unchanged!"

"We've known each other for so long, don't you understand my personality yet?"

"You can't listen to what outsiders say; you have to believe what you see with your own eyes, and especially you can't trust those with ulterior motives!"

Zhao Bin spoke these words with a serious expression and solemn tone.

Guo Xiaoyan was stunned.

What kind of nonsense is he talking about?

What do you mean by what others said, or what about people with ulterior motives?

What exactly is Zhao Bin saying?

"I don't understand what you're saying, Zhao Bin. I've already made my stance clear: we're not a good match."

"I hope you find a girl who is right for you in the future, and I also wish you happiness."

"Don't come looking for me anymore. There's nothing between us, and I don't want anyone to misunderstand."

When facing Zhao Bin again, Guo Xiaolan forced herself to be more resolute in her words.

She did this so that she wouldn't want Zhao Bin to keep pestering her.

But things turned out quite the opposite.

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Bin's voice suddenly rose.

"Lanlan, do you think it's fair to say something like that to me? I've done so much for you, are you really going to pretend you don't see any of it?"

“You weren’t like this before. I always thought of you as my ideal partner, and in fact, that’s what I did.”

You may not like me, but you can't stop me from liking you!

Guo Xiaolan's face turned red to the roots of her neck. She glanced around briefly, and thankfully, there weren't many people in the library at that time.

But the people who were closer still looked in their direction.

Their gazes made Guo Xiaolan feel embarrassed.

Guo Xiaolan even felt suffocated.

"Zhao Bin, stop talking! I will never agree to be your girlfriend!"

"Why? Explain yourself clearly today. What did I do wrong? I can change. Lanlan, did your family make any other demands?"

Ever since meeting Guo Xiaolan's mother, Zhao Bin had a bad feeling.

Not long after, Guo Xiaolan brought up the matter of refusing to continue the relationship.

All of this left Zhao Bin at a loss.

Zhao Bin had a hunch that the reason he and Guo Xiaolan had ended up like this was probably related to Liu Jia!

Liu Jia must have said something to Guo Xiaolan, which is why Guo Xiaolan is so determined to break up with her!

That's for sure!

If it was just speculation before, seeing Guo Xiaolan's attitude today makes Zhao Bin even more confident in his judgment!

At this moment, Guo Xiaolan was also stumped by Zhao Bin's question.

"What are the conditions? Zhao Bin, can you stop thinking such things?"
