    ?

    The three of them finished their meal and came out of the restaurant. It was exactly two o'clock in the afternoon when the scorching sun hit Zhou Xiang's eyes.  Commercials, buildings backlit, and for a few seconds, the picture on the screen is barely legible.  It just so happened that a dark cloud floated over, covering the sun, everything on the giant screen was replaced with an advertisement for a luxury watch, and a man walked out from the pure black background.

    Zhou Xiang's face changed suddenly.

    It was a man in his early twenties, with a slender and perfect figure wrapped in a pure white suit, which formed a strong contrast with the background. He raised his head slightly, revealing a handsome face with no expression on it.  His eyes were cold, and his tightly pursed lips revealed a cold and hard breath that could not be approached.  He tied a diamond watch on his wrist. It was such a simple movement, which was performed by him in a noble, elegant and touching way. Many people passing by this street turned their heads or stopped, just to let their eyes catch their eyes.  The man stayed.

    A sharp pain streaked across his heart, Zhou Xiang took a deep breath with a pale face.

    Yan Mingxiu?  Whyhow did he shoot commercials?  With his family background, why should he show off his laughter on the screen?

    Cai Wei beside him snorted coldly, his tone full of resentment.

    Zhou Xiang came back to his senses suddenly, adjusted his facial expression, afraid that Cai Wei would see something.

    Cai Wei knew about him and Yan Mingxiu, so Cai Wei was full of dislike for Yan Mingxiu, which had not changed in the past two years.

    It seems that the influence of a person on a person is really not so easy to disappear.

    For Cai Wei, two years have passed, but for him, Zhou Xiang, everything that happened with Yan Mingxiu was just last week, even the last phone call between him and Yan Mingxiu, he still remembers it clearly.  He can still clearly recall the smell of Yan Mingxiu, his domineering and capricious demands, his personality of not caring about hurting others when he went his own way, even his smile, his anger, his unquestionable love for Wang Yudong,  They are all still vivid.  For him, everything that he wanted to forget as soon as possible happened just a few days ago. It is said that time is the best medicine, and the time he took it was too short. He thought he would start life again without seeing him  Thinking of him, he could always forget that failed relationship completely. Unexpectedly, on the first day he was discharged from the hospital, he was forced to see Yan Mingxiu again, and he would continue to see Yan Mingxiu in the foreseeable future.

    Chen Ying saw that Zhou Xiang and Cai Wei were both looking at the advertisement on the opposite side, she also looked at it, and then exclaimed: "How can a boy be so good-looking, so good-looking."

    Cai Wei said disdainfully: "It's good to be good-looking, but it's a beast."

    Chen Ying asked in surprise: "Xiao Cai, do you know him?"

    Cai Wei said sullenly, "Yes, I know."

    "What's wrong with him? Isn't he a good person?"

    Cai Wei forced a smile, "Auntie, the entertainment industry is very chaotic, and there are not many good things."

    Zhou Xiang resisted the urge to ask Cai Wei about Yan Mingxiu. The less he knew, the better, and it would be best if Yan Mingxiu could completely disappear from his life.

    The advertisement of the famous watch on the screen disappeared, Zhou Xiang secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but the trembling in his heart did not disappear.  He really had no choice but to offend Wang Yudong, fall out with Yan Mingxiu, and fall off a cliff. These conflicts that kept him awake all night, to him, just happened not long ago. He needs time, and what he needs most now is  time.

    After Cai Wei sent them home, Chen Ying hesitated for a long time before saying embarrassedly, "Xiao Cai, Aunt Chen should invite you to come and have a sit down, but this house is rented by me.  Sorry to let you in, thank you today."

    Cai Wei frowned, and looked at this old residential area. The location was remote and the surrounding environment was poor. It was indeed not a good place. He sighed silently in his heart. Chen Ying spent all her savings in order to treat Zhou Xiang's illness.  It was all gone, and a lot of money was still owed. Although Zhou Xiang woke up, the hard life of the mother and son had just begun.

    After Cai Wei left, Chen Ying took Zhou Xiang upstairs. This seven-story slab building was at least 20 years old. The corridors were dark, the stairs were narrow, and the walls were so dirty that the original color could not be seen.

    Chen Ying rented a small house of more than 40 square meters with only one bedroom. She tried her best to keep the house clean, but she still couldn't hide the poverty of the owner.

    Chen Ying said with a smile, "I cleaned up the bedroom and bought another bed. From now on, I can just sleep in the living room."

    Zhou Xiang hurriedly said: "Mom, I'm sleeping in the living room."

    "How can I do that? You just got out of the hospital and you still need to take care of yourself. I'm used to sleeping on the wooden bed in the hospital. It's nothing  "

    Zhou Xiang said: "Mom, it doesn't make sense, I can't let you sleep in the living room and sleep in the bedroom by myself."

    The two argued for a few words, but Chen Ying couldn't persuade him, so he had to agree.

    Chen Ying made a pot of tea and took out a large bundle of photo albums. The visitor sat on the sofa in the living room, and Chen Ying slowly told him about Zhou Xiang's past.

    Zhou Xiang was an ordinary kid who grew up under the roots of the imperial city. His father was a civil servant and his mother was an accountant. He had a good life at first, but his father passed away when he was in college, and he was born at the age of twenty-four.  Unexpectedly, it is conceivable how much pain and bitterness Chen Ying's life was full of.

    He is not very interested in Zhou Xiang's past, but the more he knows, the more he sympathizes with this woman.

    As Chen Ying spoke, she also started to cry, "My life is really bad, I will not be able to hold on anymore, son, it's good that you woke up, otherwise Mom really wouldn't be able to hold on."  For two years, holding on to the miracle that I don't know when it will come, I have been supporting it for two years. This thin and short woman is countless times stronger than her appearance.

    Zhou Xiang hugged her shoulders and let her cry in the arms of her most important son.

    After venting her emotions, Chen Ying was quite embarrassed, and seeing Zhou Xiang sitting in front of her healthy and healthy, she couldn't help laughing again.

    Zhou Xiang asked: "Mom, during the time I was hospitalized, you owed a lot of money, right? You take out the debt, and let's have a match."

    As soon as this was mentioned, Chen Ying's face darkened again. She hesitated, stood up, and took out an account book from the drawer of the TV cabinet. All the loan slips in the account book were neatly clipped with pins.  As expected, Chen Ying used to be an accountant, and she organized government affairs in an orderly manner.

    She sighed heavily, "In the beginning, the family still had some savings, but your hospitalization cost was too high. I sold both of our houses. The real estate situation was not good at that time. If we sell them in the past two years, we can get nearly one hundred more.  Wan, but I was in a hurry to spend money"

    Zhou Xiang flipped through the thick loan slips, and asked in a deep voice, "Mom, how much do you owe in total?"

    Chen Ying sniffled, "My monthly retirement salary is only more than 2,000 yuan. Later, I asked people everywhere to borrow money. My relatives, friends, and colleagues all asked me to borrow money. When they saw that it was my call, they refused to answer it.  It's already" Chen Ying said hoarsely: "Now I still owe a total of 370,000 yuan."

    Three hundred and seventy thousand

    Zhou Xiang counted his previous savings. If the house and car were not counted, the deposit was about 200,000. The house was an old house allocated by his father's unit, but the location was very good, and it could have been sold for 100,000 two years ago.  Three hundred thousand. The car is a second-hand car. It can be sold for twenty to thirty thousand. The house cannot be sold. He and Chen Ying still live in it. The others are put together, and it is not difficult to pay off the three hundred and seventy thousand Zhou Xiang  While thinking, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a photo in an album, and he suddenly realized that he was no longer that Zhou Xiang, he was already "dead"!  He didn't know how to deal with those deposits and properties, and who handled them for him. How could he ask for his property back as a stranger?

    Zhou Xiang broke out in a cold sweat. So, he has not only become a pauper, but also a pauper with a debt of 370,000 yuan?

    Chen Ying saw that his face was ugly, and she also looked sad. Her son woke up, but the difficult life was far from over.

    Zhou Xiang glanced at her, even though this woman was not his mother, he thought it was his responsibility to take care of her for the rest of her life.  Because he occupied her son's body, she actually lost her son forever, and he gained a precious new life. He can't just pick up the good ones, and he should also bear the responsibilities and duties that this life needs to bear.  fulfill the obligation.

    Zhou Xiang collected his mood and closed the account book, "Mom, don't worry too much, we both live a good life, money is earned, and the debt will be paid off one day."

    Chen Ying forced a smile, "You are right, we must be positive and optimistic. When you wake up, Mom will see hope. Go to work with Xiao Cai tomorrow, and I will also look for a job."

    Zhou Xiang shook Chen Ying's hand, "Okay."

    Zhou Xiang didn't sleep well all night, thinking over and over again how to get money, and finally decided to find out the situation of his property disposal after his death as soon as possible, and then think about the next step.  In the morning, he fell asleep for a while, and when he got up, he found that he didn't think of Yan Mingxiu last night, which is really a good sign.

    He washed his face, changed his clothes, and went out to report to Cai Wei's company.
