Chapter 298

"Bang—"

A sound of a foot kicking the iron sheet came from next door, scaring Ji Xianxian until she collapsed on the ground, trembling, instinctively covering her mouth, not daring to make a single sound.

Only after the footsteps outside had walked far away did she dare to breathe deeply.

Too scary!

Hong Kong City was not as beautiful as she had imagined at all!

Especially for ordinary people like them who had lost their introduction letters and couldn't prove their identities, they could only fall to the point of doing black-market labor!

If she had known, she wouldn't have followed her man!

A liar, he was a liar!

He promised that there were relatives in Hong Kong City who could provide them with a stable life and help them forget the past, but after coming here, everything went wrong!

No, she, Ji Xianxian, could not be wiped out like this!

She wanted to live a good life, have no worries about food and clothing, and eat and drink well!

At this moment, conscience and desire were playing a game in her brain, and the expression on her face changed again and again.

"Click."

She didn't know how much time had passed when the sound of a key unlocking the door outside came. She hurriedly tidied up her messy hair, pressed down the broken hair, and stood up...

"Xianxian, look, what I brought back today. It's chicken legs and white flour steamed buns. You must be hungry, eat quickly.

I still have to go move things, I'll be back later."

Zhou Yan was covered in the smell of sour sweat, and he had lost some weight, but the light in his eyes was the same as ever.

Perhaps knowing that he was dirty, he didn't even return to the room, just stood at the door and handed the lunch box he had carefully protected inside.

"Alright, don't lock the door. I want to go out to wash things in the afternoon."

Ji Xianxian's voice was low and hoarse, and she squeezed out a smile.

Sorry, she just wanted to live well.

Instead of lingering, like a beggar, only able to rely on charity to spend the rest of her life...

"Okay, be careful. If you encounter danger, shout loudly. I've already greeted the neighbors; they will take care of you."

Zhou Yan didn't notice anything unusual, thinking his wife had figured it out and wanted to go out for a walk to adapt to life here.

He felt guilty toward his wife and was working hard to find work—the dirtiest and most tiring work paid the most. If he saved a little more, he could take his wife to change to another place!

In addition, he had entrusted someone to find his relatives, and it was almost coming to fruition. As long as he found his great-uncle, he could take his wife to live a good life!

However, Ji Xianxian just nodded woodenly, took the lunch box, and watched her husband's departing back for a long time.

Zhou Yan was undoubtedly a good person and a good husband.

She had also thought about living a good life with him, but things went against her wishes, and life always played jokes on her.

Sometimes she thought, if she hadn't been greedy and wanted to take away Shen Man's child's luck, maybe their child would have been born, and the series of things that followed wouldn't have happened.

One wrong step, every step wrong.

It was she who had let Zhou Yan down, causing him to run around and leave his hometown...

Sorry, Zhou Yan, forgive her for the last time.

Ji Xianxian found paper and pen, wrote a letter of apology, proposed to part on good terms, and said there was no need to look for her anymore; in the future, her life and death would have nothing to do with him.

She admitted she was a bad woman and hoped he would find a good woman in the future and live a good life.

Then she took half of the money from the piggy bank at home.

She simply packed her clothes, locked the door decisively, and left in the opposite direction without looking back...

The world was big; there was always a place for her to stay, wasn't there?

She didn't want to live a bitter life of living from hand to mouth anymore!

The gears of fate turned. Ji Xianxian didn't know how long she walked before she collapsed on the road, unconscious.

At the same time, a car drove by. The person in the car discovered the woman who had fainted on the side of the road and ordered the driver to get out of the car to check...

Finally, the woman was helped into the car and drove away in the opposite direction of the pier.

Zhou Yan, who was still carrying machines on the pier, suddenly felt dizzy. After putting down the machine, he fainted and fell to the ground.

His head hit a protruding stone on the ground, and blood flowed continuously.

The foreman saw this and, fearing a loss of life, hurriedly greeted people to carry him away to bandage his wounds!

As luck would have it, a private yacht approached the pier, and Zhou Yan's fate trajectory was changing...

People who often take photos know that when taking photos, you have to choose clear, sunny weather.

At that time, the light and composition, as well as color saturation, were relatively good.

In general, the camera Jiang Ye borrowed had pixels that were relatively top-notch for the current technology.

And it wasn't just black and white photos; it could also produce color photos!

After Jiang Ye took it home, he first used Tangyuan and a few little ones to experiment.

After finding the feeling, he started tinkering with photos of himself and his wife.

After shooting a roll of film, he stopped, satisfied.

Next was taking photos for Section Commander Duan, Grandpa, his brother-in-law, and the others. There were individual, double, group, with children, with Tangyuan—it almost satisfied everyone's wishes, and everyone had exclusive photos.

The last roll of film was almost entirely family portraits.

Some were in the small courtyard, some were next to the jeep, and some were by the sea.

In short, when Jiang Ye was shooting, he subconsciously avoided everything inside the Military Region.

Internal photos would never be leaked.

Even when they were taking photos, they all changed into casual clothes.

After having enough fun, it was time to return the camera and go to the photo studio to develop the photos.

When developing the photos, Jiang Ye accompanied them the whole time. After developing, he cleared all the negatives.

The photo studio owner didn't dare to keep a single one, cooperated with the destruction, and postponed the photo development time for other customers, prioritizing the development of this customer's photos on the same day.

After getting everything done, Jiang Ye bought many glass photo frames. When they went back, they could nail a photo wall on the wall of the living room at home.

To record the memories of the little ones and their relatives and friends.

At the same time, he had also mastered the details of that guy surnamed Gu.

Interesting, this person's luck was really bad.

First, he was deceived in marriage by the impostor Lu Manman, and then his whole family was emptied by thieves.

For the sake of his future, he married off his foster sister to his superior's mentally challenged son...

Later, in order to climb the high branch, he had a "fait accompli" with his second wife and married her while pregnant.

However, judging from his past life's knowledge, this "marriage while pregnant" had some water in it.

The clues Old Han found, when connected, didn't it mean a full-term birth? It wasn't premature at all!

A bold thought emerged in his mind: that guy surnamed Gu might be a "happy father."

This person's forehead was green!

He suddenly felt that such a blind person, being able to fall for different women, meant that the other party's brain was problematic and not easy to use.

Why was he wasting time with someone whose brain wasn't good?

Such a person wasn't worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as him!

If his wife had married the other party, the other party wouldn't have treated his wife sincerely either!

Because in the other party's heart, power was greater than everything...
