I'm almost 45 and the system is just coming

Chapter 57 Barrier
After dinner, the two walked out of Wanda Plaza.

"Honey, this Western food is really not tasty, it's better to cook it at home!"

On the way, Wang Fen said with a bit of heartache that she had just eaten two steaks, a plate of pastries and a bottle of red wine, and it cost nearly two thousand. How could she not feel bad? In the past, two thousand was almost enough for her living expenses for a month.

"Okay, honey, I know you're upset, but our family isn't short of money anymore, so let this meal be our celebration!"

Zhou Tian hugged his wife's delicate body and said comfortingly.

To be honest, he was not satisfied with the Western food he had just had. He didn't know why Chinese people were so fond of Western food, but in his opinion, Western food was not as delicious as Chinese food.

It is better to have a bowl of knife-cut noodles than a western meal.

"Well then! Don't waste it like this next time!"

Wang Fen nodded when she heard this, and could only say helplessly that after all, she had already eaten it, and she could only remember the lesson this time.

"Okay, got it!"

As they talked, they slowly strolled around Wanda Plaza. For a moment, they seemed to have returned to the time when they were in love. They leaned on each other and watched the people in the square. Two hours passed before they knew it.

After returning home, Wang Fen took off her coat and shoes, sat down on the sofa, frowned and rubbed her feet.

"It's great that my husband is like this. I haven't been this happy in a long time!"

Although her feet were a little sore from walking, her heart was filled with happiness.

"Really? Then I'll stay with you from now on!"

Zhou Tian replied with a smile, turned around and looked at the alarm clock. It was already ten fifteen.

"Okay, you take a rest first, I'm going to pick up the kids from school!"

"Okay! Husband, slow down!"

Zhou Tian nodded, picked up the key, went downstairs, got on his electric bike and sped all the way to No. 2 Middle School.

When they arrived at the gate of No. 2 Middle School, many parents had already gathered outside the school. Zhou Tian stopped his electric bike, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and started smoking.

To be honest, today I spent the whole night shopping with my wife. Although my wife was very happy, she felt very guilty. Life is short and they have unknowingly become people in their forties.

In these forty years, he has long forgotten how long it has been since he and his wife went shopping like this.

People often say that men are independent at thirty, free from doubts at forty, and know their destiny at fifty. He is basically reaching the age of knowing his destiny, but when he thinks back on his life, he has always been the dull type.

I have never said any romantic words to my wife, nor have I ever done anything romantic with her.

Family, responsibility, and commitment seemed to make him feel suffocated. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that his whole life lacks some color.

Looking up at the crowds of people at the school gate, he knew that this was the life of ordinary people. Fortunately, he had obtained his golden finger and had the opportunity to choose his life again at this age.

With the golden finger, he believed that his life would be better in the future, his parents would live longer and be healthier, and his grandmother would become a real blessing.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Just as he was daydreaming, the school bell rang. Zhou Tian threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground and put it out with his foot, but his eyes were looking towards the door.

After a while, students began to walk out of the school one after another, with a spirited smile on their young faces. Laughter and the sound of playing continued to ring out at the entrance of the campus, full of the breath of youth.

One by one, the students were riding their bicycles on their way home.

"Dad! Let's go!"

Just as he was looking around for his son, he was startled by his son's voice suddenly coming from behind him.

"Good boy, when did you come out? Why didn't I see you?"

As he spoke, Zhou Tian twisted the handle, and the electric car started instantly, heading towards home.

"I just came out, I came from behind!"

The son spoke slowly behind him, perhaps there was an inexplicable gap between the two generations. For some reason, Zhou Tian and his son ran out of topics to talk about.

Soon, the two rode their electric bikes back to the community, parked them downstairs, locked them, and entered the elevator. "Son, how did you do on the exam this time?"

Entering the elevator, Zhou Tian couldn't help but ask.

"Still like that!"

His son looked a little impatient, which made Zhou Tian's desire to continue asking questions fade away.

After returning home, the son carried his schoolbag back to his bedroom, closed the door, and started doing his homework.

Zhou Tian looked at his son's back and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Perhaps because his parents were too doting on him, he found that his status in his son's heart was getting lower and lower, and even his wife couldn't control him.

"What's this, son?"

His wife Wang Fen looked at her son going straight back into the house and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know. Never mind. Ignore him!"

For some reason, Zhou Tian suddenly felt a surge of anger. He wanted to get angry, but he didn't know who to vent it on. He could only suppress the anger helplessly, sat in front of the computer again, and started typing.

"I gonna go see!"

As my wife spoke, she stood up, took out a bag of oranges from the refrigerator, then walked to the door of her son's bedroom and knocked.

"Son, how did you do on the test today? Mom bought you your favorite oranges! Open the door!"

"Mom, I still have a lot of homework to do. Don't bother me! I'm going out to eat later!"

The voice of his son could be heard from the room.

"OK then!"

Hearing this, the wife had no choice but to put the oranges on the coffee table.

At half past eleven in the evening, Zhou Tian looked a little depressed. He stood in front of the French window, smoked a cigarette, and stared at the sky in the distance which had already gone dark.

Over the years, he felt as if he was getting further and further away from his son. Sometimes he didn't know how to handle the father-son relationship with his son. Whenever they talked about it, they always seemed to be unable to suppress their anger.

"Could it be that the large size is useless?"

"Husband, what's wrong?"

Wang Fen was lying in bed. Seeing that her husband had not come in for a long time, she got up and went to the living room. She saw her husband smoking dejectedly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. She couldn't help but go up to him and ask.

"Wife, do you think it's our fault that our son is like this now?"

Zhou Tian said a little irritably, flicking the ash in his hand into the ashtray.

"Isn't that what all kids are like nowadays?"

Facing her husband's question, Wang Fen couldn't help but smile bitterly. The older her son gets, the harder it is to control him, and the deeper the gap between them becomes. Not only her husband, but even she can't control her son now.

Playing games and dating, I don’t know if today’s kids are precocious or are constantly challenging the values ​​of their generation.

When they were young, there was basically no rebellion. If they dared to rebel, they would be punished severely. But children nowadays are not only rebellious, but their parents also have to deal with them carefully, for fear that if they are not careful, their children will not be able to bear the pressure and run away from home.

"Wife, why don't we have a second and third child!"

Zhou Tian put out the finished cigarette directly into the ashtray, his eyes flashing with determination.

"But my son is already this old. He will graduate from high school in two years. Isn't it a bit late?"

The wife's expression suddenly wavered. If the family was still the same as before, she would naturally not agree. But now as the family life is getting better and better, she has also thought about it.

"Why late? Don't forget that you already look like you're in your twenties. It's not too late. Let's go and have a second child!"

Zhou Tian said this, picked up his wife and walked towards the bedroom!
