Chapter 124

As soon as the three words were spoken, Ling Bei frowned. He found that he seemed to have no way of talking about this topic.
"The first thing that impressed me when I was a kid was that my dad came back from gambling in the middle of the night and had an argument with my mom. As a result, the neighbors were alarmed, and the police from the police station were finally called."
Nan Zishu knew that Ling Bei had never taken the initiative to confide this to others, so she chose to trade her past for Ling Bei's secrets.
"It seems to be a summer night. I was only five or six years old at that time." Nan Zishu paused and seemed to be recalling: "I remember that I was not in elementary school at that time, because my dad didn't come back until midnight all day long, so I
Mom and I live in the same house.
"At first, my mother always thought that my father was working overtime in the factory. Later, after hearing from neighbors and discovering that there was less money in the bankbook at home, we found out that he was secretly addicted to gambling.
"Then one night, my mother asked me to go back to the house and go to bed first, and she sat in the living room waiting for my father to come back.
"My dad drank a lot when he came back that day, and before my mom even asked me a few words, he threw a glass.
"Actually, I didn't sleep much in the house at that time. I naturally woke up when I heard such a loud noise."
Nan Zishu was unusually calm when he talked about this.
She raised her eyes and looked at the end of the corridor shrouded in cold white light. She didn't know what she was looking at. She just sighed softly: "I got up secretly and just opened the door, and saw shards of glass all over the floor.
.
"When my mother turned around, she saw me and gave me a wink to tell me to go back into the house. Then she saw my father and slapped my mother in the face.
"I was so frightened that I didn't dare to cry. I subconsciously hid behind the door."
Nan Zishu's tone gradually trembled: "At that time, South Third Street was full of bungalows, and every household was crowded together, and the sound insulation was not very good. In addition, the neighbors in the street all knew each other, and many of them worked in the same factory, so they heard our family's
When there was a movement, someone came to help.
"I really can't imagine what would have happened to my mother if no one came over that time."
Nan Zishu took a deep breath and tried to calm down: "I have told you many things that happened after that. My dad couldn't get rid of his gambling addiction and also liked to drink. After I went to elementary school, my family, which was originally relatively well-off, had
It was almost squandered by my dad.
"My mother couldn't bear it anymore, so she filed for divorce."
Nan Zishu lowered his eyes, his feather-like eyelashes leaving a shadow on his eyelids: "Nan Heng is quite conscientious and left a way for our mother and daughter to survive on the divorce property.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for more than ten years."
Nan Zishu smiled bitterly: "I have almost forgotten what he looks like. Maybe we, father and daughter, can't recognize each other when we walk on the street?"
"Shu Shu...you have me now." Ling Bei, who had been silently listening to Nan Zishu's memories, took her into his arms.
He understands the bitterness of the separation of family ties, and everything others say is just sarcastic remarks that don't hurt.
"I used to like running to my aunt's house."
Ling Bei was silent for a while, and then decided to respond to Nan Zishu's confession: "Although Mo Ziwen makes the house a mess all day long, my aunt will still greet him behind his back.
"Sometimes my uncle might have been so angry just now that he wanted to hit Mo Ziwen, but within a few minutes he would still keep his promise and take him out to play ball."
