Era: Life's Big Winner

Chapter 24: Houdunzi is a ruthless person [Please read and vote for me]

The night was dark.

Gao Junling lay in Liu Hongchang's arms with sweat all over her head, and the sadness between her brows disappeared without a trace.

With a smile on her lips, she looked at Liu Hongchang with her clear eyes, as if a dead tree had come back to life in spring, full of energy.

"I heard from Wenhui that you owe several hundred dollars in foreign debt in order to get married?" she asked gently and concernedly.

Liu Hongchang held her shoulders, closely connected with her, inseparable, and smiled:

"I borrowed most of them from colleagues, and I paid them all back today."

"That's good. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me later. Don't treat me as an outsider." Gao Junling said with a smile.

Liu Hongchang pointed behind the curtain and chuckled, "He's still waiting. Should I go out first?"

"No, let me take some time first." Gao Junling showed a rare coquettish expression on her face.

After a pause, he said with a smile: "You and him are really just close friends, because I am nothing."

"You are wrong. Brother Dunzi is more resilient than you think." Liu Hongchang murmured.

Gao Junling was stunned for a moment and nodded silently.

Some things can be understood with a little thought. She knew Houdunzi didn't want to get divorced.

People's hearts are complicated. If Houdunzi's dignity could be really maintained, he would not have divorced.

Compared to this little thing between the three of them, Houdunzi probably cares more about his reputation outside.

"Don't think too much. If he has many children and grandchildren, he will worship you as a bodhisattva." Liu Hongchang said with a smile.

Gao Junling rolled her eyes at him, moved her body, hugged his neck with her soft arms, and whispered:
"You're lucky. You've been eyeing me for a long time, right?"

Liu Hongchang thought for a moment and said with a smile, "From the first time I saw you."

He didn't lie. He fell in love with this woman at first sight when he was watching her on TV.

The first generation of Yao girls have gentle and sweet looks, they are so pure and beautiful, who can resist them?
Gao Junling was very happy when she heard that. Her eyebrows were curved and there was a smile on the corners of her mouth. She was indescribably sweet and moving.

Pursing her lips, she apologized, "I'm afraid you'll have to run back and forth during this period."

"Haha, anyone who does this will enjoy it!" Liu Hongchang said with a smile.

Gao Junling smiled, moved her face closer, rubbed his face, squinted her eyes, and felt indescribably relaxed.

The two of them stayed together for a while, and when it was almost midnight, Liu Hongchang pulled away and said, "I'm leaving."

Gao Junling suddenly felt that this was groundless and felt very uncomfortable. She exhaled slightly, looked at the curtain and asked softly:
"Dunzi, is the hot water ready?"

Houdunzi immediately poured the water over and said with a smile, "It's ready."

Gao Junling curled her lips, got off the bed, brought the water over, and considerately cleaned Liu Hongchang.

"I'll tell Wenhui that Dunzi introduced you to some private work and you'll be busy for a while."

Liu Hongchang hummed and said, "That's fine. Compared to my painstaking explanation, she believes what you say more."

"So don't tell her that you've paid off your foreign debt yet." Gao Junling said with a faint smile.

Liu Hongchang nodded and said, "I wasn't in a hurry to tell her about this."

"You, you're obviously not an honest person, so don't be too harsh on Wenhui." Gao Junling said softly.

The two of them were talking in low voices. Houdunzi was listening outside and couldn't tell what he was feeling.

Any man would feel suffocated if faced with such a thing.

But his situation was really special, and he was the one who caused this matter, so he couldn't blame anyone.

He doesn't blame either Gao Junling or Liu Hongchang, and will even thank them when there are results in the future.

It's just so complicated, but to say that I feel good about it would be a bit self-deception. It's a mixture of various emotions.

As he was pacing in circles, the curtain was drawn aside and Liu Hongchang, looking full of energy, walked out leisurely.

"Hongchang, now you're sober, are you still dizzy?" Houdunzi grinned and asked with a concerned smile.

Liu Hongchang was stunned for a moment, then he knew what he meant. It was just like trying to cover up one's faults, and he nodded.
"Thank you, brother Dunzi. I'm much better now."

"That's good, drink another two liang?" Houdunzi said with a smile. Liu Hongchang raised his hand to check the time, shook his head apologetically and said, "It's too late, let's find time later!"

"Okay, I'll take you downstairs." Houdunzi didn't try to keep him and said politely.

Liu Hongchang said quickly, "Goodbye, it's not like I don't know the way. Brother Dunzi, you should also go to bed early."

"Okay, walk slowly on the way." Houdunzi sent him to the door and stopped.

After watching Liu Hongchang leave, he sighed secretly, closed the door, turned around and walked to the curtain, and heard Gao Junling say:

"Don't come in and make yourself uncomfortable. The room is a mess. Even if you have a big heart, it will be hard for you to collapse after seeing this."

"Just set up a small bed outside. I'll hand over two quilts later. You can just make do with it!"

Houdunzi thought about the messy scene in his mind, and his heart trembled. He said unnaturally: "Thank you for your help."

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you happy?"

"Well, to be honest, I'm very happy and feel really comfortable." Gao Junling pursed her lips and did not lie to him.

Houdunzi breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "As long as you are happy, I will go back to the coal factory tomorrow."

"Go back! It will probably be torture to stay at home. He will come to bother me often in the future." Gao Junling sighed.

"I told you the day before yesterday when I went to talk to you about this matter that you have to get through this stage and think more positively."

Then he stood up, took two quilts, carried them behind the curtain, and threw them over from above.

Houdunzi quickly took it up and said stubbornly, "I'm very brave. I was just listening to you and trying to strengthen my will."

"You're promising. You can do great things in the future. You can tolerate this." Gao Junling's mouth twitched when she heard this.

Houdunzi curled his lips and said, "What else? I'm already in this situation. If I don't think positively, am I going to commit suicide?"

"Haha, does it sound good?" Gao Junling couldn't help laughing.

Houdunzi was silent for a while, then replied, "I can tell you're enjoying it."

"That's good, you are not a wooden man, you can still be saved." Gao Junling said sarcastically.

Houdunzi said with concern: "Tomorrow is Sunday, take a good rest at home."

"Don't worry, I'm not that delicate." Gao Junling shook her head.

Houdunzi raised his eyebrows and asked, "You can act as if nothing has happened. Is he just a show-off?"

"No, you won't believe it, but it's like an iron hammer. It's very powerful when it's being tinkered with." Gao Junling replied.

Houdunzi was stunned and asked in surprise: "Is this true? Isn't this too exaggerated?"

"It's not an exaggeration at all. I feel like I just gave birth to a baby. I feel empty." Gao Junling said shyly.

Then he kindly comforted her: "Don't feel inferior to me. This is a gift and a destiny."

"It's really fate!" Houdunzi sighed, and couldn't help feeling a little jealous of Liu Hongchang.

After a pause, he added: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome. We're husband and wife, so it's my duty to comfort you." Gao Junling said gently and generously.

Houdunzi's face twitched and he said, "I don't need your comfort."

"My body is covered with black and blue marks from his kneading, so I stopped you from coming in and seeing," Gao Junling explained.

Houdunzi was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. He couldn't bear to touch it, so he quickly said, "You should take a rest quickly, otherwise you will catch a cold."

"It's okay." Gao Junling replied, "I think the stomachache will disappear soon."

"You're not a doctor." Houdunzi said unhappily.

Gao Junling chuckled and said, "You don't understand this. Although I am exhausted, my body and mind are smooth and I feel indescribably happy."

"I'll go back to the coal factory tomorrow." said Houdunzi.

Gao Junling: "Think more positively."

Houdunzi: “Yeah.”
