Later, she asked Fang Qing to go out and find another job, but they gave all sorts of excuses: sometimes they weren't feeling well and couldn't work; other times their son was going through a rebellious phase and she had to stay home to discipline him.

This is Lu Jiangting's Achilles' heel; educating Wang Chen is of paramount importance to Lu Jiangting.

After that incident, she gave up.

It took a lot of effort to make this happen, so what good would it do if she went to her supervisor again? They're too busy to deal with your family's mess every day.

What good is it if you manage it once, twice, three or four times? The problem lies with the 'people,' not with the 'thing.' Even after you resolve it, it won't be long before they come up with new reasons to bother you.

Of course, she had considered divorce, but firstly, Lu Jiangting disagreed, and secondly, divorce was a major event in this era, especially for families with children. Unless you encounter someone utterly wicked, someone who would die if they didn't divorce, very few people actually do it.

Later, as more people got divorced, she felt resentful.

Because by then Lu Jiangting's parents had already passed away, and the children had grown up, she dragged it out until Lu Jiangting retired. At her advanced age, she gave up the idea of ​​divorce.

Unconsciously, she recalled many things, and Lin Yuyao was filled with melancholy.

Just then, Zhou Jing nudged her arm and said, "Xiao Fu and the others are here."

Looking up, I saw Fu Huaiyi and Yi Yunshuo coming one after the other.

Lin Yuyao glanced at the time on the wall clock; it was time for her to pick up Lin Ping.

Fu Huaiyi didn't come in, but waved to her through the glass door.

Lin Yuyao said to Zhou Jing, "Sister Zhou, my brother should be arriving soon, I need to go pick him up."

Zhou Jing: "Xiao Fu will take you there?"

"Yes, I ran into him yesterday. He said he was going to deliver something near the train station today and would give me a ride there."

Such a coincidence?

Zhou Jing didn't say anything, only smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead."

Lin Yuyao took the sign off and put it back in the drawer.

She ran out carrying her small bag.

"Brother Yi, thank you for what happened this morning."

Yi Yunshuo smiled and said, "It's nothing, just a small favor. It's more important that you get your money back."

Fu Huaiyi opened the car door next to him and looked at Lin Yuyao.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Yuyao hurriedly got into the car.

It's so hot! Even standing under a tree, it's unbearably hot.

In those days, only a very small number of high-end cars were equipped with air conditioning, and Fu Huaiyi's car obviously did not.

He didn't care since he hadn't experienced it before; he was very calm, and the car didn't get hot once it was turned on.

However... Yi Yunshuo, standing by the roadside, looked puzzled.

They won't let me go?

"Hey, I haven't gotten on the bus yet..."

They were just ruthlessly abandoned like that.

With nowhere else to go, he simply went into the bookstore to enjoy the fan and wait for Fu Huaiyi.

He was too lazy to take the crowded bus after we went back to the army base together.

This weather is unbearably hot.

……

Upon arriving at the train station, Fu Huaiyi parked the car on the side of the road and let Lin Yuyao out.

"After you pick up the person, wait for me here. I'm going to take care of some business ahead of me, but I'll be back soon, maybe even before you arrive."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome. It's on my way. Go ahead."

The claim of running errands near the train station was just a pretext.

To make it look more realistic, he drove the car away and drove around in circles nearby.

Stop under a large tree some distance away, then stare at the vicinity of the train station.

He would drive over after Lin Yuyao picked up the person.

Lin Yuyao stood under the big characters of the train station and waited. The sun was strong and it was too hot. She couldn't stand it after a few minutes.

Seeing a pavilion not far away, she ran to the pavilion to wait, but her eyes were fixed on the bottom of the large characters, afraid of missing a single glance.

After waiting for about ten more minutes, a young man came over carrying a load on a shoulder pole.

Standing under the words "train station," I first looked up at the words, then carefully moved to the word "fire," and began to look around.

A stick with a large bag hanging from each end—who else could it be but Lin Ping?

Lin Yuyao smiled and ran towards him.

He was still looking around.

Lin Yuyao secretly covered his eyes from behind.

"Guess who I am?"

Although Lin Ping is a grown man, he has always been studying. This is his first time traveling far from home, and he is still a somewhat scared child at heart.

I was terrified the moment my eyes were covered.

Fortunately, the next moment I heard a familiar voice that had been deliberately disguised.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sis, you scared me to death!"

Lin Yuyao found it obvious immediately and felt bored.

She withdrew her hand and said, "Wow, you're not pretending not to know, are you?"

Lin Ping: "..."

Lin Ping turned around and looked at Lin Yuyao, who was even more radiant than a few months ago, and his heart finally settled down.

Thankfully, it seems that bastard Lu Jiangting didn't really have a big impact on her; her parents weren't lying to her.

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Okay, okay, remember to remind me next time, and I'll pretend I don't know."

"I already reminded you, how can you pretend you didn't know?"

"Then just pretend. I've already guessed it, so I have to pretend I don't know."

"Tch, boring." Lin Yuyao snatched a package; it was heavy.

"What is this thing? Why is it so heavy?"

"My parents told me to bring this. It's a whole bunch of random things, too complicated to explain in a few words. You'll have to see for yourself later."

"Sigh!" Lin Yuyao sighed, "They're really something. I called and told them repeatedly to bring less stuff, but they still brought so much. Oh well, let's go, it's so hot. I'll take you home to enjoy the fan."

"Wow, sis, you bought a fan?"

"Of course."

"Is it cool?"

"It's very cool."

She saw a small shop selling soda and suddenly stopped. "Wait a minute."

"what happened?"

Lin Yuyao put the package on the ground and said, "Wait here for me for a while, I'm going to buy something."

She ran off and bought three bottles of ice-cold soda; a sip of that on such a hot day would surely be so refreshing.

A moment later she returned with three bottles of soda, handed one to Lin Ping, and said, "Here, drink this to cool down."

Lin Ping looked at the bottle in his hand, then at the two bottles in Lin Yuyao's hand.

Why did you drink two bottles but only give me one?

Lin Yuyao: “…”

"What are you thinking about? This bottle is for my friend."

"your friend?"

"Yes."

Where is your friend?

“Let’s go ahead and wait for him. He has something to do. He just dropped me off to pick you up because it was on his way.”

"Oh."

Without thinking much, he drank the whole bottle of soda in one go, feeling as if he had come back to life.

Then I simply slung both bags over my shoulder and told her to hurry up and leave.

Lin Yuyao quickly took a sip of soda and then went to take his bag.

"Put it down quickly, give me one. You're picking out so many in this heat, be careful not to get heatstroke."

“It’s okay, you can take one, but I can’t pick the other one either, it’s too heavy to carry.”

"Oh, you..."

"Alright, alright, let's go, I'm dying of heat."

Even after picking someone up at the station, it's still quite a distance to walk to the roadside.

"He's right here, let's wait for him for a bit."

"Hey."
