Chen Shouwang was in a state of utter panic. Ever since he did not return home overnight, he had been on tenterhooks under his wife's watchful eye, forcing a smile and struggling to get by. When the family urgently demanded money, he had kept only thirty yuan after receiving his allowance, sending the rest back home. He had given Hualing twenty yuan, leaving himself with only ten yuan in his hand.
He was just hoping that the loan sharks wouldn't come knocking, but as the saying goes, what one fears most is bound to happen. They actually showed up at the military region.
Where could he find the money to pay back the one hundred yuan he had borrowed?
Finally managing to send the two thugs away, Chen Shouwang let out a sigh of relief, only to hear Qi Taiguo's voice.
His body tensed, he turned around, and squeezed out a smile, "You're here?"
