Chapter 237: Do You Want Him to Be a Parasite?

Huaihua said this, glanced at Shazhu, and continued:

"You, you always this or that all day."

"Every day you complain that my mother is too controlling."

"Or you say my mother can't control your brother."

"If you ask me, you have no mother in your heart at all."

Shazhu: "Nonsense."

"Isn't what I'm doing also for your brother's sake?"

Huaihua: "Oh, for your brother's good, you just let him stay at home as an unemployed youth?"

"Sha Shu, I'm not blaming you, but aren't you being way too selfish?"

"Xu Damao, no matter what, did help my brother get a good job."

"And also taught my brother the skill of projecting movies."

"You can't just deny my brother a job because you're enemies with Xu Damao, can you?"

"Tell me, if not selfish, what is this then?"

"Yes, we all know you used to help us a lot before."

"But you don't want my brother to work—are you trying to make him a parasite?"

Shazhu grew angrier as he listened, pointed at Huaihua, and shouted:

"You, you, you—do you see me like that?"

"Is that just pure nonsense?"

Huaihua: "How am I nonsense?"

"If not my brother, then talk about my mother."

"Think about all these years—what have you ever voluntarily done for my mother?"

"Weren't they all passive?"

Shazhu really wanted to say, "If you put it that way, I have to explain properly to you."

"You claim I never voluntarily did anything for your mother, then I ask you—what has your mother ever voluntarily done for me?"

"At least I've given your family the leftovers I bring home from the cafeteria, right? And occasionally I lend money, grain, buy flour."

"How much money has your mother borrowed from me? Go ask her—has she ever repaid a single cent?"

"Leaving the distant ones aside, take the TV purchase—she took my salary, and I let her use it to buy a TV."

"Do you know what she said?"

"She actually said she'd save it for Bang Geng to use for his marriage."

"On what grounds? I'm Bang Geng's biological father!"

"What about your mother? Besides ruining my blind date, what else has she done for me?"

"Yes, she helped tidy the house, but isn't that expected?"

Huaihua, you're also a white‑eyed wolf, what a thing.

These words were stuck in Shazhu's heart, choking him painfully.

But he dared not speak them.

Because he knew that once spoken, Qin Huairu's whole family would fall out with him.

He had given so much; he truly couldn't accept it.

Huaihua thought she had convinced him, chuckled inwardly, and then said:

"I think, you just haven't turned your brain the right way."

"Turn a corner and think—on the surface it's my mother for my brother."

"How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world."

"Everyone understands, right?"

"But actually my mother feels that being with you is a forced relationship that isn't sweet."

"It's a one‑sided effort."

"Over time, no one can endure it."

"My mother always blocks you, but what's the result?"

"You never took my mother seriously at all."

Shazhu couldn't hold back: "She blocks me, and expects me to be grateful to her, right?"

"On what authority? On what grounds does she block me?"

Huaihua frowned tightly, stood up, and was about to leave.

Shazhu hurriedly grabbed her, smiling, and said:

"Alright, alright, I'm grateful to your mother, okay?"

"She did it for my good, alright?"

Huaihua: "Now that's more like it."

Shazhu: "No, where did you learn all these tricks?"

Huaihua: "Anyway, I've said my piece, you see I'm foolish."

Shazhu, now frustrated: "Me, why am I stupid?"

"Isn't it that you all think I'm stupid?"

"I, I have been feeling sorry for you and your sister for nothing."

"Since I was little I've taken you both as my own daughters."

"Hmph, useless, back‑stabbing wolf, right?"

"One attacks me, another jostles me."

"This isn't even kin, I'm telling you."

"If they were kin, they'd definitely not act like this."

"Me—I'm running away from home, me."

"I'm done with it, I."

After saying that, he opened the door and was about to leave.

Huaihua hurriedly asked:

"Sha Shu, where are you going?"

Shazhu gave Huaihua a cold glance and said irritably:

"I won't tell you."

Having said that.

He walked out.

Huaihua called after his back:

"Excuse me, where are you going?"

Shazhu wandered outside for a while, then went to ask Ma Hua for a loan.

He thought it over and decided to proactively buy clothes and shoes for Qin Huairu.

To see if things might turn around.

He no longer wants to be alone now.

But he has no marriage prospect.

After pondering, Qin Huairu still seems the most likely to marry him.

Arriving at the store, he stood in front of the clothing counter for a long time, not knowing what to buy.

At that moment, a sales clerk approached and asked:

"Comrade, I see you've been standing for a while."

"What would you like to buy? Who are you buying for?"

Shazhu hesitated a moment, stammering:

"I… I… I… my partner."

The clerk asked, "How tall is your partner?"

Shazhu looked the clerk up and down and said:

"About the same as you, just a bit chubbier."

The clerk nodded and asked again:

"How old is she?"

Shazhu blurted out, "Around thirty, I guess."

While speaking, he pointed at a piece of clothing, "You, you just bring me that one, let me have a look."

The clerk fetched the garment and said, "Take a look then."

Shazhu: "That one, I… I… I'm not good at judging this."

"Please put it on for me."

"You try it on, I'll see if it fits, then it's that one."

The clerk nodded.

After putting it on, he asked, "Does it look fitting?"

Shazhu looked it over, nodded, and said:

"It's okay, fine, then that's the one."

"Alright, go ahead and issue the receipt."

After buying the clothes, Shazhu went to the shoes and bags counter.

He stood there for another long while.

When the clerk finished attending others, he came over and asked:

"You're buying shoes for your partner, right?"

Shazhu: "Ah, you have a good eye, you saw it at a glance."

"Finally I don't have to keep saying it."

Clerk: "Then are you buying winter boots or dress shoes?"

Shazhu: "Winter boots, winter boots."

While saying that, he pointed at a pair of shoes and added:

"You, just give me the black ones."

Clerk asked, "What size?"

Shazhu: "Size 37, size 37."

The clerk took them, examined, and said:

"Perfect, these are size 37."

Shazhu: "Got it, got it, it's that one."

"You issue the receipt, issue the receipt."

The clerk nodded and said:

"Alright, please wait a moment."

After a short while.

The clerk opened the receipt.

Shazhu, with a smug expression, lifted the clothes and shoes and left the shop.

Shazhu borrowed money from Ma Hua again.

This time he bought new shoes and new clothes to give to Qin Huairu; Qin Huairu should be very happy, right?

If they're that happy, could they agree to me?

Shazhu kept thinking and couldn't help laughing out loud.
