Mother and daughter neighbors (41-45)

41.
The next morning, I suggested to Hao Dawei and Huang Shanshan that since the traffic had been so bad these past few days, why don't we do some volunteer work and show the nation the good character of Haikou citizens?
Hao Dawei said we were free anyway, so let's do it. Huang Shanshan also readily agreed. So the three of us immediately got to work, first going to the supermarket and buying a large amount of bread, biscuits, sausages, and bottled water, filling most of the trunk and back seat of my car, leaving only one seat for Huang Shanshan, before heading to the New Harbor.
While buying the food, we carefully checked the production dates to avoid delivering expired food to those in need, which could have a negative impact and turn a good deed into a bad one.
My thought was that, on the one hand, we wanted to contribute to society, and on the other hand, to do some good and accumulate merit for Zhao Li, her unborn child, and Huang Xiaolei, who was imprisoned.
Upon arriving near the new port, about 15 kilometers away, a long line of vehicles waiting to board the ferry stretched as far as the eye could see. I'd never seen such a spectacular traffic jam in my life; it was truly awe-inspiring and magnificent.
We drove along the line of vehicles outside the temporary median strip, stopping every so often. The three of us, carrying our supplies, split up to ask if anyone needed food or water. Because government organizations and volunteers had already distributed supplies along the route, there weren't many vehicles in need.
We also saw volunteers setting up gas stoves and pots to cook porridge, which was quite popular, with a long queue of people waiting for it.
We felt a sense of satisfaction whenever someone in need thanked us, or even if someone didn't need it, they expressed their gratitude. It made us feel that the world is still a beautiful place.
We also encountered some amusing incidents. Because Huang Shanshan was so beautiful, male drivers and passengers would ask for her phone number, which she always politely declined.
Some people even asked if she was Huang Shanshan, a contestant from "The Voice of China," and wanted to take a photo with her, but she smiled and denied it, avoiding them.
While distributing supplies to a vehicle, I asked how long they had been queuing. The driver told me they had been queuing since last night, stopping and starting, with more stops than progress, and it had been over twelve hours now, with no idea how much longer they would have to wait to enter the port and board the ship.
I thought to myself, "My goodness! That's really exhausting."
But some unpleasant things happened. After a vehicle collected our food and water, before we had gone far, they threw the food out of the car, cursing and saying things like, "What kind of shit is this? Is it even fit for human consumption?"
Hao Dawei was about to confront them, but I stopped him. I said, "Let it go. We were doing a good deed; let's not let it turn into a bad one and end up fighting." Huang Shanshan picked up the food that had been thrown on the ground and wiped the packaging clean with a tissue.
Since there were so many vehicles queuing, the food and water in the car were almost all distributed in no time.
Some people even asked us, "Hey buddy, got any cigarettes?" They hadn't smoked for seven or eight hours and couldn't buy any. I gave them all the cigarettes Hao Dawei and I had on us, and they thanked us profusely.
We didn't have much left in the car, and since we weren't planning on going to the next traffic jam area, the three of us went to the beach and ate our lunch on the sand with the remaining food and water.
Huang Shanshan sat between Hao Dawei and me, and we ate and chatted, laughing and talking. We all laughed heartily when we talked about the funny things that had happened, especially Huang Shanshan, who laughed so hard she kept resting her head on my shoulder and then on Hao Dawei's.
This was probably the happiest day Huang Shanshan had had since Huang Xiaolei went to prison. Looking at her radiant smile, I silently said in my heart, "Shanshan, please always be as happy as you are today!"
Right after the Spring Festival, my sister Chen Meiyan came to Haikou. She and her husband were divorced, and custody of their son went to her ex-husband, who was caring for him with his grandparents. She was now essentially unemployed.
Chen Meiyan was financially well-off; she received a large sum of money in her divorce settlement with her wealthy ex-husband, including several prime storefronts, enough to live comfortably off the rent alone.
On the day Chen Meiyan arrived in Haikou, Hao Dawei picked her up from the airport again. Since her last visit to Haikou, she and Hao Dawei had established a close relationship, chatting frequently on WeChat.
Last October, Hao Dawei went to Nanjing on business and met with Chen Meiyan. Chen Meiyan not only treated him to a meal but also took her home to visit my parents. Over time, they became good friends.
After picking up Chen Meiyan, Hao Dawei and Chen Meiyan went to Hao Dawei's car. Chen Meiyan took out a paper bag and said to him, "Brother Dawei, I heard you have a stomach problem. This is some traditional Chinese medicine I got for you in Nanjing. It's good for your stomach. Try it first, and if it works, I'll get you some more here."
Hao Dawei took the paper bag, feeling incredibly warm inside. He hadn't expected that Chen Meiyan would remember his brief mention of it during a previous conversation. His mother had passed away when he was young, his father had remarried, and his relationship with his stepmother and half-brother was strained. Having been away from home for many years, he rarely experienced such warmth, and his nose immediately felt a little sore.
"Meiyan, thank you!" Hao Dawei's voice choked with emotion.
Chen Meiyan asked, "Brother Dawei, what's wrong?"
Hao Dawei smiled. "Nothing, Meiyan, get in the car."
After leaving the airport, Chen Meiyan told Hao Dawei in the car that she would take him to the seafood market; she wanted to cook seafood for them that evening.
“Meiyan, is it alright? Your brother has already booked a meal at the restaurant,” Hao Dawei said as he drove.
“Oh!” Chen Meiyan laughed, “Can’t we just cancel it? Eating at home is so much better, it’s more hygienic and has a family atmosphere.”
“But you just got off the plane, and now you’re going to buy groceries and cook? That’s exhausting!”
“What’s so tiring about a plane ride? Okay, just listen to your sister, okay?”
“Alright then! I’ll tell Shaoyan.” Hao Dawei laughed, picking up his phone to make a call.
Chen Meiyan stopped him, “You focus on driving, I’ll call my brother.”
Hao Dawei took Chen Meiyan to the Seafood World, the largest seafood wholesale market in Haikou, with all kinds of seafood.
Chen Meiyan was in charge of selecting, and Hao Dawei was in charge of carrying. Every time Hao Dawei saw Chen Meiyan carefully selecting and haggling with the seafood vendors at each stall they visited, he thought to himself, “Such a good woman, how come that man doesn’t appreciate her?”
“Hey, Dawei, this grouper looks good. How about we buy one and steam it?” Chen Meiyan said at a stall.
Seeing that Hao Dawei didn't respond, she turned to him. “Dawei…”
Hao Dawei quickly looked away from Chen Meiyan's face, a little embarrassed, and said, “Um, Meiyan…”
“Why are you staring at me like that?” Chen Meiyan laughed.
Hao Dawei blushed and stammered, “N-nothing? Meiyan, what did you just say?”
“I said we should buy a grouper and steam it. What do you think?” Chen Meiyan looked at Hao Dawei with a smile.
Hao Dawei laughed, “Meiyan, whatever you say.”
Chen Meiyan gave him a charmingly playful glare and said to the stall owner, “Boss, weigh this grouper for me.”
At another stall, Chen Meiyan said she wanted to buy more shrimp. Hao Dawei asked if they could finish so many. Chen Meiyan said they could use some to make porridge. Hao Dawei laughed and said, "Okay, whatever you say goes."
The stall owner laughed and said, "Boss, you should listen to your wife."
Hao Dawei said seriously, "She is my sister."
The stall owner apologized, "Sorry, sorry, it turns out you're siblings, I was mistaken."
Chen Meiyan smiled, "It's alright."
The stall owner smiled again, "It's just that you two, one handsome and one beautiful, are quite a good match."
Chen Meiyan was delighted to hear this and bought some other things from the stall.
Back home, Chen Meiyan pulled Zhao Li to sit on the sofa, constantly touching her belly and asking her all sorts of questions, chattering away.
I laughed, "Meiyan, ask your questions one by one, how can Lili answer you if you keep firing off like this?"
"Go away!" Chen Meiyan rolled her eyes at me, "Mind your own business."
While Chen Meiyan and Zhao Li were talking, Hao Dawei and I sat beside them, smiling and watching them.
Huang Shanshan was also in the living room when her phone rang. We all looked at her. She glanced at the screen and told us it was the film crew calling.
I guessed the crew would be starting work again after the Spring Festival, and this was to inform her of the start date, so I told her to go to the bedroom to answer it. Chen Meiyan glanced at Huang Shanshan's retreating figure and asked me, "By the way, hasn't Sister Xiaolei gone home yet?"
I could only reply, "She went out of town."
"Out of town?" Chen Meiyan was quite surprised. "When will she be back?" Hao
Dawei and I exchanged glances and said to Chen Meiyan, "I'll tell you the details later."
Chen Meiyan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll cook."
She went into the kitchen as she spoke. Zhao Li got up and followed her in. "Sister Meiyan, let me help you."
Although Zhao Li was Chen Meiyan's sister-in-law, she was eight years younger than Chen Meiyan, so I still called her "sister. "
"Oh dear! What are you helping with with your big belly? Go sit down." Chen Meiyan pushed Zhao Li back into the living room. "Now that I'm here, I won't let you do any housework."
Chen Meiyan busied herself in the kitchen, having Hao Dawei assist her. One minute she'd say, "Brother Dawei, wash the shrimp." The next minute she'd call out, "Brother Dawei, peel the garlic." She kept calling him "Brother Dawei," constantly ordering him around.
Hao Dawei was happy to help, sidling up to Chen Meiyan. Zhao Li and I stood at the kitchen doorway, watching them with smiles.
I joked, "Famous screenwriter, when did you become so diligent?"
Hao Dawei replied seriously, "I've always been diligent, you just haven't seen it."
"You're kidding!" I laughed.
Before long, a sumptuous seafood feast was ready. The five of us sat around the table, raising our glasses in a toast—first, to welcome Chen Meiyan back to Haikou, and second, to wish Zhao Li a smooth delivery.

42.
After dinner, Hao Dawei again insisted on washing the dishes. Chen Meiyan said, "Let me do it. What are you doing, you big man?
You won't even get them clean." I said to Chen Meiyan, "Meiyan, just let him wash them. He's always freeloading here, leaving the dishes unattended."
"Hey! Third-rate writer, don't tarnish my glorious image, okay?" Hao Dawei said seriously, holding the dishes.
We all laughed. Chen Meiyan was worried about Hao Dawei washing the dishes alone, so she went into the kitchen to help him. The two of them washed and wiped the dishes, chatting and laughing. I thought to myself, since Chen Meiyan came today, these two have always worked together seamlessly.
After tidying up, we sat for a while, and then Hao Dawei prepared to go back; he had a script to finish. I said to Chen Meiyan, "Meiyan, let's see Dawei off."
"Okay!" Chen Meiyan replied, and we went out the door together.
After seeing Hao Dawei off, Chen Meiyan and I took a walk in the neighborhood. I told her about Huang Xiaolei's arrest.
Chen Meiyan was shocked and looked at me, asking, "What did Sister Xiaolei do?"
"Suspected of hiring a hitman, manslaughter, and staging a car accident scene," I told her truthfully.
"Ah!" Chen Meiyan exclaimed in astonishment. "How could this be? Xiaolei is a woman, and such a good person, how could this happen?"
I said, "Xiaolei has been involved in the underworld for years, and it's inevitable that she'll get involved with organized crime. Someone has something on her and keeps blackmailing her. One of her subordinates got help from the underworld to kill that person. Although she wasn't involved, it's hard to say for sure now."
Chen Meiyan was still incredulous, muttering, "How could this happen? How could this happen?"
She looked at me again, "Then... will Xiaolei be sentenced to death?"
"Not necessarily," I shook my head and said, "but it's still quite serious."
Chen Meiyan stared at me blankly, her eyes full of worry.
"I've consulted a lawyer. In Xiaolei's case, a not-guilty plea is possible in a murder-for-hire case, but it's difficult to prove her innocence immediately because one suspect has not yet been apprehended. As for the manslaughter and staged car accident scene charges, a guilty plea is the only option," I said.
Chen Meiyan sighed repeatedly, finally saying, "Shanshan must be very sad, right?"
I said, "She was indeed very sad at first, crying all night long, but she's better now."
I sighed, "What's done is done, it can't be undone, so let's face it positively!"
Chen Meiyan remained silent. I looked at her and said, "Meiyan, are you very worried about me having such a friend?"
Chen Meiyan shook her head and smiled slightly, "Brother, I believe your friend isn't a bad person, she was just forced to do something wrong, let her accept the punishment of the law!"
She looked into the distance and sighed softly, "It's just that Shanshan is suffering, that child is so pitiful."
She looked at me again, "Brother, we have to take good care of her."
I smiled and nodded.
In early March, Huang Xiaolei's case went to trial. There were three trials in total. The first trial was for the murder of the truck driver, and the suspects were Boss Cui and his subordinates, Huang Xiaolei, and Xiao Dongbei. However, Xiao Dongbei was still at large and had not yet been apprehended.
The evidence in this case was conclusive, the facts were clear, and Boss Cui and his subordinates all confessed. However, since Xiao Dongbei has not yet been apprehended, whether he is related to Huang Xiaolei remains to be seen and will be investigated later.
The Fang Min death case took some time. Due to the privacy of the deceased, the court did not hold a public hearing, only allowing the defendant's and the deceased's family members to attend.
Fang Mei and I attended the hearing as family members of the deceased. Huang Shanshan was filming out of town at that time, and even if she were in Haikou, I didn't plan to let her attend. She was only nineteen years old and not yet mature; some things might have a negative impact on her.
Fang Mei and her parents were extremely shocked when they learned that Fang Min did not die in an accidental car crash, but was killed by someone else. Originally, Fang Mei's parents were going to attend the hearing, but I persuaded Fang Mei through Hao Dawei not to bring them. After all, if the elderly couple knew about Fang Min's past, it would be a huge blow to them.
To avoid implicating her two male prostitutes, Huang Xiaolei admitted to putting an aphrodisiac in Fang Min's drink. Two men, Xiaofei and Dachuan, also testified in court. They stated that during their sexual encounter with Fang Min that night, Fang Min was abnormally aroused throughout, and suddenly went into deep shock and stopped breathing near the end. The defense lawyer also presented medical evidence that Fang Min had a pre-existing hidden heart condition.
Ultimately, the court found Huang Xiaolei guilty of manslaughter, including administering an aphrodisiac to Fang Min, despite lacking intent to kill her, and of fabricating a car accident scene and the driver's escape. She was sentenced to thirteen years in prison for these crimes. Whether she was involved in the conspiracy to murder the truck driver remains to be determined. As
the bailiffs led Huang Xiaolei away after the trial, Fang Mei rushed up to her and, despite being pulled away by the bailiffs, shouted at Huang Xiaolei: "Huang Xiaolei, you murderer! You killed my sister! I'm appealing! I'll make you pay for my sister's life!"
Although she was a police officer, she had lost her composure due to her emotions at that moment, and ignoring the execution was a reasonable outcome for Huang Xiaolei.
After Fang Mei was pulled away by the bailiffs, I shouted to Huang Xiaolei, "Xiaolei, reform yourself well and try to get a reduced sentence. I'll take good care of Shanshan, don't worry."
Huang Xiaolei was dragged out by the bailiffs, tears streaming down her face, looking at me the whole time.
Outside the courtroom, Hao Dawei was waiting for me; he had already learned the verdict from Huang Xiaolei's defense lawyer. I called Huang Shanshan and told her, who was sobbing, that it wasn't a bad result; if she could get a reduced sentence later, she might be released in a few years.
Just then, Fang Mei rushed in front of me, pointing at me and yelling, "Chen Shaoyan, you bastard!"
Hao Dawei quickly grabbed her, but she continued to yell at me, "Your mistress killed my sister to get revenge for you! Tell me, did you order her to do it? You're a murderer too! My sister died because of you!"
Hao Dawei grabbed Fang Mei's shoulders and roared, "Enough! Your sister died because of her own promiscuity!"
Fang Mei stared at Hao Dawei with tears in her eyes, shoved him away, and pointed at him, shouting, "You're no better..."
She stared at Hao Dawei and then pointed at me, "You're in cahoots with that Chen guy. From today onwards, you can forget about ever seeing Ni'er again."
She stared at me again, gritting her teeth and pointing at me, "Chen Shaoyan, I will never forgive you in this lifetime."
Then she stomped away, leaving Hao Dawei and me watching her retreating figure with helpless sighs.
After Huang Xiaolei was transferred to Hainan Women's Prison, Hao Dawei and I visited her again, and Chen Meiyan came with us. At that time, Huang Shanshan was still filming and hadn't returned.
Chen Meiyan told Huang Xiaolei that she had come to take care of me, Zhao Li, and our unborn child long-term, and that she would also take good care of Huang Shanshan, fulfilling Huang Xiaolei's duties as a mother.
Huang Xiaolei buried her head and sobbed for a long time before looking up and saying, "Thank you, thank you all. Having you as friends is the greatest blessing of my life."
We encouraged her to behave well in prison and try to get a reduced sentence, and told her to let us know if she needed anything.
Days passed like this. The drama I wrote finished filming and entered post-production, and Huang Shanshan returned to Haikou. The four of us—Zhao Li, Huang Shanshan, my sister Chen Meiyan, and I—lived together. Chen Meiyan lived across the hall at Huang Xiaolei's house, while Huang Shanshan stayed at my house.
Hao Dawei also often came over for meals. I noticed that since Chen Meiyan came, he had been coming over much more often than before. He said it was mainly because Meiyan's cooking was so delicious; he craved it after a few days without it. I thought he was right; my sister's cooking really is excellent.
Besides buying groceries, cooking, and doing housework every day, Chen Meiyan also got a membership at a yoga center near our neighborhood and often goes there to practice yoga. She also goes out from time to time, usually with Hao Dawei, sometimes with other friends.
I asked her, "You've only been here a short time, and you already have friends?" Chen Meiyan said she met them through yoga. I thought to myself, that's not surprising; my sister is always very outgoing and makes friends wherever she goes.
Sometimes I think, my sister is only thirty-six years old this year, she's beautiful, she has a great figure, although she's a bit sharp-tongued and a bit talkative, she's still very virtuous, and her financial situation is good too. Any man who finds her would be incredibly happy. My ex-brother-in-law really didn't know how lucky he was.
One evening in mid-April, Huang Shanshan was out with friends, and Chen Meiyan had gone out with friends she met at yoga class and hadn't returned yet. Zhao Li suddenly wanted an apple, so I went to a 24-hour supermarket near our neighborhood to buy one for her.
On my way back, I saw a black Volkswagen Touareg SUV parked by the roadside. As I passed the car, I instinctively glanced through the windshield and saw a couple passionately kissing. The man was even grabbing and squeezing the woman's breasts—they were incredibly affectionate.
I smiled to myself and continued walking, but suddenly something felt off. I looked back at the license plate—wasn't that Hao Dawei's car? That bastard's womanizing at our neighborhood gate?
A sudden thought sent a chill down my spine. Chen Meiyan wasn't home that night either, and now Hao Dawei's car was parked here… Could it be…? I didn't dare think any further and hid in a dark corner to keep watch.
After a while, I saw the front right door open, and a woman got out of the passenger seat. I looked—it was my sister!
I saw Chen Meiyan wave to the car and walk towards me with a sweet smile on her face. I quickly moved further into the shadows.
As she passed me, she smiled and touched her lips with her fingertips, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl experiencing her first love.
After she passed, I hurried towards Hao Dawei's car. He had just started moving when I quickened my pace to the car and leaned down to knock on the front right window. Hao Dawei was clearly startled when he saw me. He stopped the car, rolled down the window, and asked, "Shaoyan, what are you doing here?"
I waved to him, "Get out, I have something to say to you."
Hao Dawei got out of the car and had just walked up to me when I punched him in the face.

43.
"What are you doing? Are you crazy?" Hao Dawei leaned against the car, glaring at me angrily, and touched his broken, bleeding lips.
I grabbed Hao Dawei by the collar with both hands, pinned him against the car door, and yelled, "You can mess around with women all you want, but don't fucking mess with my sister."
"What are you talking about?" This bastard was still pretending not to know.
I roared, "Who was that woman in your car just now?"
He finally said, "Shaoyan, listen to me, let me go first."
I released him, and he looked at me and said, "Shaoyan, I'm truly in love with Meiyan."
"Shut up!" I yelled, pointing at him, "Don't I know you? A notorious playboy, you'd be truly in love with a divorced, thirty-something-year-old hag?"
"You shut up!" Hao Dawei shoved me, pointing at me, "I won't allow you to talk about my Meiyan like that, do you hear me?"
"Your Meiyan?" I sneered, "Is it really that cheesy?"
Hao Dawei turned to the side, touched his head, and turned back to me, saying, "Chen Shaoyan, can you calm down? Listen to me first."
From Hao Dawei's explanation, I learned that he and Chen Meiyan had been secretly seeing each other for over half a month. Several times Chen Meiyan said she went out with other friends, but actually she was with Hao Dawei.
I asked, "Have you slept together?"
Hao Dawei hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"You fucking slept with a woman who's like your own sister!" I was furious and punched him again.
This time he was on guard and grabbed my wrist. "Don't fucking resort to violence so easily. Do you really think I can't beat you?"
He forcefully shook my hand off. "I've really fallen in love with Meiyan."
"Come on, you just want to add another lonely divorced woman to your list of casual sex partners."
He grabbed my collar and said, "I'm warning you, don't talk about me and Meiyan like that."
He released me and continued, "I never thought of just playing around with Meiyan. I care about her more than any other woman."
"Why?" I asked coldly.
"Because she's gentle, virtuous, kind, and has a particularly sincere heart. Of course, she's also beautiful enough. Aren't these enough for me to fall in love with her?"
"If I remember correctly, Fang Mei had all of those qualities back then," I sneered.
“That’s different,” Hao Dawei waved his hand and said, “Fang Mei doesn’t love me at all, but Meiyan does.”
We were silent for a while, then I said, “Dawei, I believe what you’re saying might be sincere, but have you thought about it? This is just your current thought. Meiyan will grow old someday. Will you still feel the same way then?”
Hao Dawei said, “No matter how old Meiyan gets, I will love her. Besides, when she gets old, I’ll be old too, won’t I?”
Another silence followed.
“No matter what, you two aren’t right for each other, and I don’t agree,” I said, turning and walking towards the gate of the residential complex.
He called after me, “Shaoyan, whether you agree or not, Meiyan loves me, and I love her too. I’m going to have her for life.”
I ignored him and continued walking into the complex.
Back home, Chen Meiyan was talking to Zhao Li. They were both surprised to see my gloomy face. Zhao Li asked, “Honey, where’s the apple you bought?”
I then remembered that I had dropped it during my argument with Hao Dawei. I said to Chen Meiyan, "Meiyan, I have something to tell you. Let's go to the other side."
When we arrived at Huang Xiaolei's house, I cut to the chase: "Meiyan, I won't allow you to be with Hao Dawei."
Chen Meiyan looked at me in surprise. I told her what I had seen of her and Hao Dawei in the car outside the complex earlier.
A blush crept onto her face, and she said, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Dawei?"
She even skipped the "brother" part. I said, "As a friend, David is impeccable—loyal and generous. But as a lover or husband, he's not up to par. To put it bluntly, he's too much of a womanizer. Do you know how many women he's been with? You couldn't count them even if you put your hands and feet together."
Chen Meiyan looked at me for a moment. "Brother, you shouldn't say that about David. He's your friend."
"Precisely because he's been my friend for twenty years, I have the right to say this," I said patiently. "Because I know him too well."
Chen Meiyan turned her back and said, "Perhaps many people, including you, have this or that opinion about David. I admit, maybe he was a bit of a womanizer in the past, but in my heart, he's the most lovable man, even though he's not perfect."
I thought to myself, "Oh no, my little sister has fallen for that guy's tricks. That bastard is too good at flirting with women."
I turned Chen Meiyan around, placed my hands on her shoulders, and said, "Meiyan, listen to me. No matter what Dawei tells you, don't believe him. Maybe he's sincere now, but what about the future? That guy is fickle."
Chen Meiyan looked at me for a while before saying, "Even if what you say is true, even if he leaves me or wrongs me in the future, I want to be with him now."
"Why?"
"Because I love him." Chen Meiyan paused, then continued, "Brother, I was with Yangyang's father when I was twenty-one, married him at twenty-three, gave birth to Yangyang at twenty-four, and was a housewife for over ten years, almost losing myself in the process. And what did I get in the end? Is this how women are supposed to live?"
She sighed softly, "Now that we're divorced, I just want to live for myself, to love properly while I'm still young, is that not allowed?"
As Chen Meiyan said these words, tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at me.
I looked at her for a long time and said, "But you can't treat arsenic like candy, can you?"
"Even if it's arsenic, I'll still eat it. But how do you know it's arsenic? Dawei told me that he was indeed a playboy in the past, but now he wants me to tame his playboy heart."
"Do you believe him?"
"I believe him. Even if he's lying to me, I'm willing to believe him."
I knew that it was no use saying anything now; Chen Meiyan's heart was already filled with Hao Dawei. I sighed and said, "Sister, I'm worried about you."
Her eyes were filled with tears, but she chuckled, "What's there to worry about? Your sister isn't some eighteen or nineteen-year-old virgin like Huang Shanshan, okay?"
My nose stung, and I looked at her and said, "You're my only sister. I love you, and I only wish you well."
Chen Meiyan shed tears. She nestled in my arms, hugged my waist, and murmured, "Yes, I understand, brother. Please believe me this once, believe Dawei this once."
I hugged her and nodded. The door suddenly opened, and Zhao Li walked in. She had been eavesdropping outside.
Chen Meiyan, in my arms, said to Zhao Li, "Li, can I borrow your husband for a hug?"
Zhao Li laughed, "Sure! I can hug him for as long as I want."
The next day, I called Hao Dawei over and, in front of Chen Meiyan and Zhao Li, warned him that he absolutely could not hurt my sister, or I would not let him off the hook.
Hao Dawei naturally agreed without hesitation, and the matter was considered closed. But that guy was like a radish from the sandy soil; he picked things up quickly and moved into Huang Xiaolei's house that very day, starting to live with Chen Meiyan.
I deliberately asked Hao Dawei for rent, and he asked why. I said, "You're living in Huang Xiaolei's house, don't you have to pay rent? I'm collecting it on her behalf. Even if you're sharing with Meiyan, you only have to pay half." The bastard tried to bully me, saying he had no money and wouldn't pay a single penny even if he did.
And so, we formed a large family of five, which was quite lively and happy. Those two were sometimes so cloying, it was unbearable to watch. Especially Hao Dawei, calling Chen Meiyan "baby" one minute and "Yanyan" the next.
I told him, "My name also has 'Yan' in it, I might think you're calling me!" Hao Dawei immediately made a face, saying, "Come on! I'm a genuine straight man."
To be honest, I've never seen Hao Dawei show that same enthusiasm for Chen Meiyan to any other woman. I never dreamed that the woman who would one day tame this womanizer would be my sister, Chen Meiyan.
At this point, I started to believe what Hao Dawei had told me that night.
The TV series I wrote the script for, with Huang Shanshan playing the third female lead, finally aired, and the ratings were pretty good. Huang Shanshan also became famous with the show, and her fan base grew bigger and bigger.
We joked with her that she'd have to disguise herself when she went out from now on, wearing sunglasses, hats, and stuff like that, to avoid being harassed by fans for autographs.
During a prison visit, I told Huang Xiaolei about Huang Shanshan's rising fame, and she naturally wept with joy.
A well-known agency had signed Huang Shanshan. Before this, Huang Shanshan hadn't wanted to sign with this agency and wanted Hao Dawei to continue being her manager.
Out of concern for her future, Hao Dawei and I chose to let her go. Hao Dawei was quite disappointed, after all, Huang Shanshan was someone he and I had brought into the industry and helped her along the way.
I completed the scripts for two more films and a TV series, all of which were sold.
Zhao Li's due date was in two months, and we were all looking forward to the arrival of this little life. Chen Meiyan said that after the baby was born, she would bring her parents to Haikou to stay for a while so they could hold their chubby grandson, or maybe even granddaughter.
Immersed in our beautiful dreams for the future, we had no idea that a huge misfortune was about to descend silently.
On the afternoon of May 20th, Zhao Li and I went for a walk in the park near our neighborhood. Those few days, Chen Meiyan and Hao Dawei had gone to Nanjing to visit my parents.
During that time, I would take Zhao Li to that green park for a walk almost every afternoon. On the way home, as we came out of the park, we saw a vendor selling pineapples on the sidewalk. Zhao Li picked one and asked the vendor to peel it.
Neither of us noticed that a Jinbei van was parked across the street, with a man wearing a sun hat and mask inside, staring at us.
At that moment, I received a phone call and paced back and forth while talking, unknowingly stepping off the sidewalk. Suddenly, the Jinbei van started, made a U-turn, and sped towards me from over a hundred meters away. I was engrossed in a conversation with my friend and completely unaware of the sudden danger.
Zhao Li, who was waiting for a vendor to peel her own food, saw this and yelled "Shut up!" She ran towards me, heavily pregnant, and shoved me aside.
What happened next is something I will never forget. The Jinbei van knocked Zhao Li several meters away and sped off.
In that instant, I was stunned, my mind went blank. I scrambled to my feet and ran to Zhao Li's side. Blood was flowing from her nostrils, mouth, and ears, and her genitals were also covered in a pool of crimson blood.
I held Zhao Li's body, my mouth agape, and after a long while, a heart-wrenching wail erupted like a volcanic eruption.

44.
When the ambulance arrived, Zhao Li had already lost all vital signs, and her eight-month-old fetus, naturally, had also perished before even being born.
Two days later, in a bungalow in an old residential area, the murderer, Xiao Dongbei, was arrested by the police.
Xiao Dongbei confessed to the crime; he had been watching me for days, and that day he originally planned to stab me with a dagger when I came to this side of the road, then drive away. When he saw me making a phone call on the other side, he changed his mind and drove his car into me.
His motive stemmed from a frenzied jealousy and hatred towards me.
In less than two years, I had experienced the sudden loss of my wife twice, and this time, along with my wife, my eight-month-old child also perished. Nothing in life can be more tragic and devastating.
On the day they received the devastating news, Chen Meiyan and Hao Dawei, who were in Nanjing, immediately flew back to Haikou. They had kept it a secret from their parents before leaving, fearing they wouldn't be able to handle the shock, and planned to tell them slowly later.
The two went straight to the funeral home after landing. As soon as Chen Meiyan saw me, she buried her face in my arms and wept uncontrollably.
From the day of the accident until the funeral on the morning of the third day, Chen Meiyan, Hao Dawei, and Huang Shanshan stayed with me at the hotel, comforting me and receiving friends who came to pay their respects. The four of us were immersed in endless grief.
Hao Dawei notified Fang Mei, and she came with her parents. Although Fang Mei's parents' feelings towards me became complicated after learning that the person responsible for Fang Min's death had a close relationship with me, they still showed compassion for my grief over the loss of my
wife and child, comforting me for a long time. Fang Mei didn't say a word to me, but I could see that her hatred for me had faded considerably with the passing of my wife and child. I could even sense that several times she wanted to come and talk to me, but then stopped herself.
At that time, I was completely immersed in the abyss of grief, my eyes vacant. When others spoke to me, I would only nod or hum in response, and I had no time to pay attention to Fang Mei.
I asked Hao Dawei to notify Zhao Jin. I felt that although he and his sister had severed ties, he was still Zhao Li's closest relative, and I still hoped he could come to see his sister off. Fortunately,
when Zhao Li had just broken off with her brother, I had been cautious and asked Huang Xiaolei for Zhao Jin's phone number. At the time, I thought that perhaps the siblings could reconcile one day, after all, Zhao Li had loved her brother as much as she loved her own life. But I never expected that when I contacted Zhao Jin with this number, the siblings would already be separated by death.
Zhao Jin came with his girlfriend, Li Zhenzhen. As soon as he entered the mourning hall, he went to Zhao Li's memorial tablet, prostrated himself on the ground, pressed his forehead to the ground, opened his mouth wide for a long time without making a sound, and then let out a heart-wrenching cry.
Li Zhenzhen hugged him, tears streaming down her face. Between sobs, he repeatedly murmured, "Sister, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."
Zhao Jin cried for a while before finally getting up with the help of Li Zhenzhen and Hao Dawei. Hao Dawei told him the general details of his sister's death, and he also asked Chen Meiyan for a black armband to wear.
Afterwards, Zhao Jin remained kneeling before Zhao Li's memorial tablet, silent, refusing to rise no matter who tried to persuade him. I felt that Zhao Jin's grief at this moment was genuine; such sorrow was something even the best actor couldn't portray. Perhaps only now did he have the opportunity to repent to his sister.
Looking at Zhao Jin's kneeling back, Li Zhenzhen said to me, "Brother-in-law, actually, for the past six months or so, Zhao Jin has been trying to repent to my sister, but we couldn't contact you after she changed her phone number. I advised Zhao Jin to go to the nightclub where my sister used to work to inquire, but he's too proud and absolutely refused to go to such a place to ask about his sister. Originally, I thought I'd go myself, but I'm a girl..."
Li Zhenzhen wiped away her tears and continued, "Until the end of last year, he missed my sister so much that he finally mustered up the courage to go to the nightclub, but none of the girls had your contact information, and they didn't know where you lived. He tried to ask that woman surnamed Huang, and that's how he found out..." Huang's sister has been arrested. This means we can't find you. Zhao Jin has been hoping his sister would contact him, not for anything else, but just to kneel before her and say, "Sister, I'm sorry..."
Li Zhenzhen broke down in tears, sobbing for a while before continuing, "We never expected that after you finally contacted us, we would receive such devastating news..."
She choked up again, sobbing, "Brother-in-law, Zhao Jin truly knows he was wrong. He deeply regrets his actions. Do you think my sister can forgive him? Brother-in-law, can you forgive him?"
Tears streamed down my face, but I was speechless. I wanted to say something but couldn't utter a single word, just staring blankly into space.
Hao Dawei patted my shoulder and said to Li Zhenzhen, "Miss Li, please don't be offended. Shaoyan can't speak right now, he hasn't said a word to us. He must have heard what you said. I think he has forgiven Zhao Jin, and I believe Zhao Li's spirit in heaven will also forgive her brother."
"That's good, that's good..." Li Zhenzhen sobbed as she spoke, and Chen Meiyan quickly put her arm around her shoulder to comfort her, she herself was also shedding tears.
By this time, Chen Meiyan already knew about Zhao Li's past experiences, but she felt no contempt or anger, only admiration for this great sister and pity for her passing.
To our surprise, Li Zhenzhen's parents also came to the funeral hall that afternoon.
Professor Li and his wife first bowed and offered incense before Zhao Li's memorial tablet, then sat down in front of me and Hao Dawei to speak.
“Mr. Chen, you have a wonderful wife, and Zhao Jin has a wonderful older sister,” Professor Li said. “I never really knew about Zhao Jin’s family situation before. He never told my wife or me the truth about it. This kid is too proud and too insecure.”
“After Zhao Jin’s affair was exposed, I was furious. When the university’s Party Committee was considering punishment for Zhao Jin, they consulted me. I firmly demanded that Zhao Jin’s combined Master’s and Doctoral program be revoked. What right does someone who doesn’t even acknowledge his sister who raised him with such hardship have to be nurtured by the university? The Party Committee considered that Zhao Jin is indeed a rare talent, so they adopted a compromise: if he could gain his sister’s forgiveness, he would be exempt from punishment.”
“I also severely criticized Zhao Jin. You have such a wonderful sister, yet you don’t cherish her and hurt her so badly—it’s simply the act of a beast. I told him, Zhenzhen loves you so much, I can’t stop her from marrying you in the future, but I despise you.”
“Mr. Chen, do you remember what you said to the university leaders when you accompanied Zhao Jin’s sister to the university?” Professor Li looked at me as he said this.
My blank gaze shifted to him. Hao Dawei patted my shoulder and said to Professor Li, "Professor Li, he's listening! Please go ahead."
Professor Li continued, “You said at the time that Zhao Jin’s behavior was indeed despicable, but that did not diminish his academic excellence in the slightest. The law, not morality, is the primary force that restrains and punishes a person’s behavior. No law or regulation stipulates that someone who disowns their family must be dismissed from public office or school. Your treatment of your student is an act of being swayed by public opinion, unfair, and fails to truly serve an educational and cautionary purpose. I hope the school will give Zhao Jin another chance.”
Professor Li adjusted his glasses and added, “After our executive vice-principal relayed these words to me, I was deeply moved. I feel that our school, as a higher education institution, has become superficial in its ideological education of students, leading to phenomena like Zhao Jin’s. After the incident, resorting to moral blackmail without even investigating the facts is truly inappropriate.”
"Your words are truly insightful, putting those of us in higher education to shame. They also made me realize what a wonderful sister and brother-in-law Zhao Jin has,"
Hao Dawei said on my behalf. "Thank you, Professor Li."
After speaking, Professor Li said to his daughter, "Zhenzhen, you and Zhao Jin will stay here tonight to keep vigil for your sister, and send her off on her final journey tomorrow morning."
Finally, Professor Li patted my hand, looking at Zhao Jin still kneeling before Zhao Li's memorial tablet, and said, "Mr. Chen, please forgive Zhao Jin. Look at him, he truly repents." After
he finished speaking, he and his wife said goodbye to Hao Dawei, Chen Meiyan, and others. Hao Dawei escorted the couple out of the funeral home building.
Dinner was takeout ordered by Chen Meiyan, and the six of us ate in the mourning hall. Zhao Jin and I had no appetite whatsoever.
Huang Shanshan held a bowl and tried to feed me, but I couldn't open my mouth. She said tearfully, "Uncle Chen, please eat something!"
But I still didn't eat, and Huang Shanshan had to give up. While they were eating, Li Zhenzhen asked Huang Shanshan if she was Huang Shanshan, the one who participated in "The Voice of China," acted in a certain TV series, and was currently quite popular.
Huang Shanshan confirmed it. Li Zhenzhen excitedly said that she recognized her as soon as she arrived at the funeral hall, but it wasn't convenient to confirm at the time. Given the somber atmosphere, they didn't discuss the topic further.
After a quick dinner, Hao Dawei began arranging the funeral for the next morning.
"The funeral procession starts at 5:30 tomorrow morning, and the burial at the cemetery is at 7:00. I've arranged the hearse, the cemetery staff, and the Taoist priests to perform the rituals."
He then said to me and Zhao Jin, "Shaoyan, Zhao Jin, you two are Zhao Li's family. Following the proper procedure, we'll start from here..."
He patted my knee and said, "Shaoyan, you carry Zhao Li's urn at the front..."
He patted Zhao Jin's shoulder again, "Zhao Jin, you carry your sister's memorial tablet behind your brother-in-law. The rest of us will follow you, understand?"
Zhao Jin nodded and said, "Understood, Brother Hao."
"Good." Hao Dawei nodded and added, "Tonight at midnight, the five of us will go to the sacrificial area downstairs to burn paper money for Zhao Li. Shaoyan, if you're not feeling well, don't go; stay here and rest."
The next day at the burial, Zhao Jin cried uncontrollably, the three women wept incessantly, and even Hao Dawei, this grown man, shed tears. I, however, was beyond tears, my expression still blank.
Arriving at the parking lot outside the cemetery, Hao Dawei said to Zhao Jin, "Although your sister is gone, your brother-in-law is still your brother-in-law. Keep in touch."
Zhao Jin nodded repeatedly, said a few more words of advice to me, and then drove away with Li Zhenzhen. Hao Dawei also drove the three of us away.

45.
Back home, I didn't eat or drink for three days straight, lying in bed in a daze, not saying a word. The three of them were extremely worried, but helpless.
That day, Chen Meiyan and Huang Shanshan brought food to my bedside again, but I remained unresponsive.
Chen Meiyan could only plead tearfully, "Brother, please eat something! You haven't eaten or drunk anything for days. How can this go on? I'm begging you, please?"
Huang Shanshan also looked at me with tears in her eyes, but I still ignored her. Hao Dawei, standing at the bedroom door, silently watched for a while, then came over and beckoned to Chen Meiyan to move aside. Chen Meiyan wiped away her tears and moved aside.
Hao Dawei grabbed my collar and lifted me off the bed. Chen Meiyan exclaimed in surprise, "Dawei, don't do this!"
Hao Dawei said with a gloomy face, "Never mind."
He dragged me to the living room, forced me to sit at the dining table, slammed a bowl of rice in front of me, and shoved chopsticks into my hand, ordering, "Eat!"
I sat there, motionless. Hao Dawei suddenly got angry and roared, "I told you to eat!"
He pressed my face against the rice, "Eat! You bastard, eat it all!"
Chen Meiyan and Huang Shanshan both cried out in alarm. Chen Meiyan quickly pulled Hao Dawei away, "What are you doing? Let him go."
"Shut up!" Hao Dawei glared at Chen Meiyan and roared.
This was the first time he had spoken to Chen Meiyan like this, and she immediately fell silent.
Hao Dawei released his grip on my hand and said, “Do you want to starve to death? You might feel relieved if you die, but what about Meiyan? What about your parents? Have you thought about them? And what about me and Shanshan, who have been so worried about you these past few days? How can you face all of us? Do you think Zhao Li in heaven will be happy if you torture yourself like this?”
As he said this, Chen Meiyan and Huang Shanshan stared at him, tears welling in their eyes.
Hao Dawei took a breath and continued, “Third-rate writer, the dead are gone, the living should live on. You must have heard this saying before, right? What you need to do now is live well, live for your deceased wife and children, live for all of us, and most importantly, live for yourself.”
Listening to his words, I cried as I grabbed handfuls of rice from my bowl and stuffed it into my mouth. Chen Meiyan quickly put chopsticks in my hand so I could eat with them, and also put some vegetables in my bowl. Huang Shanshan quickly took a towel and wiped the rice grains off my face.
"Eat slowly, don't choke. Here, have some soup." Chen Meiyan fed me a spoonful of soup.
Hao Dawei finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Damn it, you think I can't handle you? If it weren't for the fact that I'm worried about Meiyan, I wouldn't bother with you. Eat or not, I don't care if you starve."
Chen Meiyan gave Hao Dawei a charming glare and fed me more soup. Huang Shanshan, standing to the side, secretly gave Hao Dawei a thumbs up, and Hao Dawei winked at her smugly.
After that day, I finally returned to a normal life, but I was still listless, doing nothing all day and not wanting to do anything. Hao Dawei had to finish my two unfinished scripts, and I temporarily stopped updating my online novel.
Chen Meiyan called her parents in Nanjing to tell them about Zhao Li's death, and they were naturally devastated. Chen Meiyan comforted them for a long time on the phone, telling them to take care of themselves and that she would take care of me.
When Hao Dawei and Huang Shanshan visited Huang Xiaolei in prison, they told her about Zhao Li's death and that the murderer was Xiao Dongbei, who was now in jail awaiting sentencing.
Zhao Li was someone Huang Xiaolei considered like a younger sister, and she immediately burst into tears, constantly blaming herself, saying she was the one who killed Zhao Li. Hao Dawei could only comfort her.
One night, lying in bed, I was suddenly overcome with grief and quietly began to cry. These days, to avoid worrying my family, I often cried alone in secret. That night,
I couldn't suppress my grief any longer, and my crying grew louder and louder until Huang Shanshan, who shared an apartment with me, heard me. She came into the room to comfort me. I turned my back to her and wept bitterly, and she couldn't help it, so she lay down on her side behind me and hugged me.
Although I felt the softness of her delicate body, I felt no lustful thoughts; my entire being was immersed in grief.
The next morning, when I woke up, I found Huang Shanshan sleeping next to me. I quickly woke her and asked why she was in my bed.
Huang Shanshan rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "I cried all night, and she comforted me. Then I fell silent, and she fell asleep too.
" I was immediately terrified and stammered, "Shanshan, I...I didn't...did that last night?"
Huang Shanshan blushed and laughed, "Uncle Chen, what are you thinking? How could that be?"
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
One afternoon in early July, I watched others fishing by the river for a long time before heading home around lunchtime. Huang Shanshan was away filming in another city during that time.
As soon as I got home, I saw Chen Meiyan sitting on the sofa crying, with Hao Dawei talking to her. I thought Hao Dawei had bullied Chen Meiyan, so I asked him, "What did you do to my sister?" Hao Dawei said, "Nothing."
Upon hearing this, Chen Meiyan started hitting and punching Hao Dawei repeatedly, saying, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault! I told you it wasn't a safe period that day, but you wouldn't wear a condom, and now look what happened..."
Hao Dawei, while dodging Chen Meiyan's fists, chuckled at me, "Meiyan's pregnant, hehe..."
"So what are you planning to do?" I asked.
"Have the baby! She's already pregnant," Hao Dawei laughed.
"You think you can just have the baby like that?" Chen Meiyan cried, hitting Hao Dawei again, "I'm already in my thirties, my son is over ten, why would I have another baby?"
Hao Dawei laughed again, "So what if you're in your thirties? Some people have babies in their forties! Besides, I only have daughters, no sons, and I really want a son."
Chen Meiyan shouted at him, "How do you know it's a son? Maybe it's a daughter?"
Hao Dawei smiled ingratiatingly, "I'd love a daughter too, as long as it's yours."
"You're so annoying!" Chen Meiyan said coquettishly, wiping away her tears.
I suddenly thought of my child who had gone with Zhao Li, and I was overcome with grief again, so I lowered my head.
Chen Meiyan noticed my mood. She exchanged a glance with Hao Dawei, then sat down beside me, took my hand, and said, "Brother, are you thinking about Zhao Li again?"
I was silent for a moment, then looked up and smiled, "It's nothing... Meiyan, I think you should have the baby."
Chen Meiyan looked at me, "Brother, do you want me to have the baby too?"
I smiled and nodded, "Since Dawei wants this child, and if you have it, it will at least give Mom and Dad some comfort. After all, it's also part of our Chen family bloodline!"
Hao Dawei clapped his hands and laughed, "That's right! The third-rate writer... oh no, the first-rate writer is absolutely right."
I said to him, "Don't be so smug. You haven't married my sister yet! Do you want your child to be born as an unregistered person?"
Hao Dawei laughed, "We'll get the marriage certificate tomorrow, we'll get the marriage certificate tomorrow."
Chen Meiyan grabbed an orange and threw it at him, playfully scolding, "Who agreed to marry you?"
And so, Chen Meiyan decided to have the baby and soon got her marriage certificate with Hao Dawei.
I think I'm destined to be enemies with this guy for life. We've been buddies since college, like brothers from Liangshan who became friends after a fight.
Once, during the semi-finals of the school's football tournament, I was a junior, and Hao Dawei was a freshman. I was a forward for our department's team, and he was a defender for theirs. I dribbled past him, and this guy tackled me from behind, bringing me down. Because his tackle was so aggressive, I got angry and argued with him. We started fighting, and both of us were immediately shown red cards by the referee.
We sat on the sidelines watching the game, and I can't remember who started it, but we started discussing the match, and we were having a really good conversation. Only afterwards did I realize that I'd been tricked. His tackle from behind should have been a red card; he deliberately provoked me into fighting so I'd get sent off along with him, a classic case of exchanging blows.
After that, we actually became friends, often playing football, watching football, and drinking together, and we were even selected for the school team together.
That year, during a group stage match of the Jiangsu division of the National University Football League, an opposing player accused me of diving in the penalty area to try and get a penalty kick. He chased after me, yelling and shoving me. Hao Dawei, who had already been substituted off, rushed onto the field from the bench to stand up for me and shoved the guy, almost causing a brawl between the two teams. Even the substitutes from both sides rushed onto the field. As a result, Hao Dawei was sent off with a red card and suspended for three games.
At that time, neither of us could have imagined that we would later marry the Fang sisters and become their husbands, and now we would be brothers-in-law and brother-in-law. I really don't know what kind of karmic debt we had in our past lives to be so entangled in this life.
The three of us discussed it and decided to bring our parents to Haikou. The climate here is pleasant, with winters as warm as spring and summer, and summer temperatures are not higher than in Nanjing, just more humid. Many of my parents' former colleagues have bought houses in Haikou, Sanya, or other parts of Hainan, becoming "migratory birds" (people who live and work in the area during the summer). We thought my parents could also become "migratory birds," just spending more time here, which would make it easier for us to take care of them.
When Chen Meiyan mentioned this to my parents, they immediately agreed, saying that since Chen Meiyan was preparing for her second child, they could come and take care of her. Also, several of my father's colleagues own houses in Haikou, so they would have a place to visit. However, they didn't plan to come anytime soon because they couldn't bear to leave their grandson in Nanjing; they planned to come closer to Chen Meiyan's due date.
Once this was settled, Hao Dawei started looking for houses. When he divorced Fang Mei, the large house they used to live in was given to Fang Mei, and he moved into a smaller apartment. Since my parents were coming to stay long-term, they couldn't possibly continue living in Huang Xiaolei's house, could they? Besides, it was too cramped.
Soon, Hao Dawei and Chen Meiyan found a large garden villa near the sea, a show flat furnished by the developer, with almost everything they needed, ready to move in.
So Hao Dawei reserved the house. But he didn't have enough money and planned to sell his house in Sanya. Chen Meiyan stopped him, saying that houses in Sanya were very valuable, and besides, we could live there later. She paid the difference and bought the house.
After buying the house, the couple moved in. They wanted Huang Shanshan and me to live with them too, since the house was big enough. But I didn't want to move, and Huang Shanshan naturally didn't want to go either.
As soon as they moved out, I rented out Huang Xiaolei's house, and I saved all the rent for Huang Shanshan.
During this time, Xiao Dongbei was sentenced to death and executed immediately. On the day of his execution, I went to Zhao Li's grave to comfort her spirit in heaven.
