Cao Jianjun looked at him in surprise: "Brother-in-law, aren't you afraid my sister will find out?"
Sun Youguang said nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of? I've thought it through long ago. I've seen the same old face for over ten years, it's time for a change. If she wants a divorce, I'll grant her that wish."
Cao Jianjun was speechless for a moment, then said, "Brother-in-law, you'd better control your temper later. My sister is very angry and has gone back to her parents' home."
Sun Youguang said nonchalantly, "Then let her stay at her parents' house. She can come back whenever she wants, or not if she doesn't."
Cao Jianjun was taken aback: "Brother-in-law, this isn't a good thing to do. No matter what, it's understandable that my sister is angry. I think you should take the initiative to apologize and bring her home."
Sun Youguang scoffed, "Bullshit, who cares about her? If she could serve me well, would she need to go to a place like that? You tell her for me: if she wants to stay, she can come back; if not, she can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau or the court, it's up to her!"
Cao Jianjun was at a loss for what to do: "Brother-in-law, don't blame me for being nosy, but you've really gone too far. Besides, my sister's personality is much gentler than Xiao Hui's. You'll have more freedom if you have a wife like that. You should go and coax her a bit."
Sun Youguang reluctantly said, "Fine. Humph, you think you can control me? No way! I'm rich, what kind of woman can't I find?"
Cao Jianjun stopped talking and pulled him into the car to drive to his father-in-law's house.
……
To everyone's surprise, when they arrived at the usual spot, Sun Youguang had a completely different demeanor. He greeted his mother-in-law with a smile and said, "Mom, I'm back."
When Zhou Cong saw him come in, he lowered his head and rushed into the inner bedroom, followed by the sound of crying.
The mother-in-law scolded, "Youguang, look at the mess you've made!"
Sun Youguang smiled apologetically: "Mom, I was wrong. Isn't this me coming to apologize?"
The mother-in-law continued, "Youguang, I'm not trying to criticize you, but what you did was absolutely wrong. You've completely disgraced our family."
Sun Youguang lowered his head and said, "Yes, it's all my fault. I lost control of myself for a moment. Dad, Mom, I'm here. You can scold me or hit me as you please."
The father-in-law gritted his teeth in anger: "Sigh, our family is a cadre family, after all. How can such a thing happen? What kind of behavior is this!"
Sun Youguang was very straightforward: "Dad, I know I've embarrassed you. You can punish me as you see fit."
The mother-in-law sighed, "Oh, what does it have to do with us? We're all getting old. In a few years, when we close our eyes, we won't care how you're doing. But as long as there's light, don't you think about the children? Luckily, Xiao Cong is considerate and didn't tell anyone. Otherwise, how would the children face people?"
Sun Youguang was somewhat moved: "Yes, I married a good wife. You've thought of everything so well. Our family is counting on you."
The mother-in-law said, "Why don't you go inside and try to persuade her? Apologize, say a few nice words to coax her."
"Okay." Sun Youguang agreed and went into the inner room.
The father-in-law couldn't believe it: "That's it, it's over?"
The mother-in-law was furious: "What else do you want? When you were young, I blocked your way, and I cried a few times and that was it, didn't I?"
The father-in-law lost face: "Listen to this! Jianjun is still here, and what are you saying!"
Cao Jianjun forced a smile: "Dad, I didn't hear anything!"
Just then, Zhou Hui came out from the inner room and said angrily, "My sister shouldn't have forgiven him."
The mother-in-law's face darkened: "Shut up! Are you jealous because your sister is doing better than you?"
Zhou Hui objected: "Mom, what do you mean by this?"
Cao Jianjun quickly advised, "Xiaohui, don't say anything. Mom doesn't care, so just stop talking."
The mother-in-law objected: "Jianjun, what do you mean by that? What do you expect me to care about? Advise them to divorce?"
Cao Jianjun was speechless: "I didn't say anything..."
The mother-in-law snapped, "What can you say? Your brother-in-law was arrested by your police station, and they couldn't get him out. Now you're trying to play the good guy? If you had any real ability, would your brother-in-law have suffered this?"
Cao Jianjun stared in disbelief: "What?"
Zhou Hui didn't expect her to say that: "Mom, what do you mean? My brother-in-law went to a prostitute, and it's Jianjun's fault?"
The mother-in-law argued vehemently, "Isn't that right? If he were so capable, would your brother-in-law have needed to be locked up for so long?"
Zhou Hui was extremely disappointed: "Fine, just because your brother-in-law has a few stinking coins, you think it's so appealing that he goes out and whores, while Jianjun works diligently and doesn't even catch your eye. If you're so materialistic, why did you marry my dad in the first place?"
The mother-in-law was furious: "Xiaohui, have you gone too far?"
Zhou Hui was truly angry: "I just can't swallow this! So what if Jianjun doesn't have money? I don't care if he's poor, what's it to you! Jianjun, you shouldn't have stepped forward today. You should have told his company to come and pick him up with fanfare. How can others not know about such an honorable thing you did?"
The mother-in-law was trembling with anger: "Are you... trying to drive me to my death?!"
Zhou Hui said irritably, "No way! We've found such a promising son-in-law, and we haven't even enjoyed the good life with him yet. How can we die? Jianjun, let's go."
The mother-in-law yelled from behind, "Fine, go! Don't ever come back!"
Zhou Hui walked quickly, saying without turning her head, "If I'm not coming back, I'm not coming back. Jianjun, what are you still doing lingering there? Do you want to get scolded a few more times?"
"Mom, we're leaving." Cao Jianjun smiled cautiously at his mother-in-law and followed Zhou Hui downstairs.
Zhou Hui got into the car angrily: "Let's go, what are we waiting for?"
Cao Jianjun looked at her: "Xiao Hui, you...you really don't think I'm useless, do you?"
Zhou Hui looked at him, then suddenly hugged him tightly and buried her head in his body: "How can I not mind? But no matter how much I mind, you are my man, and you have never done anything to betray me behind my back."
"Although we earn less money, we won more than 600,000 yuan in the lottery a while ago, right? We bought our house early, and after paying off the remaining 200,000 yuan in mortgage, we still have 400,000 yuan left, which is enough for our comfortable life. I'm content. We don't compare ourselves with others, we only compare ourselves with ourselves."
Cao Jianjun hugged her tightly, moved: "Xiao Hui, you are so good. One day, I will make you proud of me!"
Zhou Hui rolled her eyes at him: "Okay, I'll remember that."
Chapter 390 Honor
Some time has passed, and recently, the Municipal Public Security Bureau organized a citywide skills competition for police officers, requiring all police stations in the city to send representatives to participate.
As expected, Li Mu represented the Balihe Police Station.
After more than a week of competition, Li Mu won two individual event honors.
One is the champion of the city's police officers' combat competition; the other is the third place winner of the city's police officers' shooting competition.
With Li Mu's skills, winning the fighting competition was naturally no problem; as for shooting, winning the bronze medal was somewhat unexpected for Li Mu.
He didn't have much time to practice shooting at the police academy, and his shooting experience came from shooting clubs from previous worlds. Unexpectedly, he won the bronze medal with this experience.
Perhaps this is also related to his current strong physique and sharp senses, which enhance his marksmanship.
Back at the police station, he achieved a record-breaking result, the best ever seen in the history of the Balihe Police Station, and was praised by the station chief, Wang Shouyi, once again.
Li Mu was in a good mood. Honors were one thing, but if he wanted to continue to advance, this was also a kind of qualification.
Moreover, I've heard that in a few months, the Ministry of Public Security will also hold a national competition for police officers, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, Li Mu will likely represent Qing City in the competition.
If they can achieve honors, or even win a single championship, they will likely become a key player for development within the bureau.
This has led to him frequently visiting the city bureau's training center these days to participate in combat and shooting training under the guidance of professionals.
In the hope of achieving good results.
Li Mu was quite happy about it. Putting aside whether he would receive honors, it would be good to learn something.
While he was busy studying, Li Dawei fell silent, which was unusual for him. His mother and father, who was suffering from a terminal illness, were about to return from their trip, and he was about to face a harsh reality.
That day, Li Dawei took half a day off and waited for more than an hour on the high-speed rail platform before a high-speed train slowly pulled into the station.
Looking at the information on her phone, she was certain this was the right trip. The train moved a few steps and stopped in front of a carriage. The door opened, and Li's mother and Li Yisheng slowly stepped off.
Seeing his father, Li Yisheng, so weak that he was almost completely leaning on his mother's back, Li Dawei's eyes instantly reddened, and he called out, "Dad!"
He immediately turned around and let Li Yisheng lie on his back.
As the three of them walked out of the high-speed rail station, they sensed the silent atmosphere. Li Dawei tried to make conversation: "Mom, you've had enough fun after traveling with Dad for over a month, haven't you?"
Li's mother forced a smile and said, "That's enough! This trip took us to more than ten countries, all places your father has been to before. Dawei, your father has traveled to quite a lot in his life."
Li Yisheng, perched on Li Dawei's back, laughed: "How many of us are there? I've been to so many places! I can't even count them all."
Li Dawei said, "Impressive! Now that you're back, will you run away again?"
Li Yisheng shook his head: "I'm not running anymore, I can't run anymore..."
Li Dawei sighed, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
After returning home and settling Li Yisheng down to rest, Li's mother came out of the bedroom and sat down on the sofa with her head down. Li Dawei brought a bowl of noodles from the kitchen and placed it in front of her.
"Mom, you've been on the road for so long, have something to eat!"
Li's mother shook her head: "I'm not hungry, I'll eat later, just leave it for now."
Li Dawei asked, "Where's Dad? Is he asleep?"
Li's mother sighed, "How can he not be able to sleep? That thing is in his brain; he might never be able to sleep until he dies."
Li Dawei felt uneasy: "Mom, stop talking. Contact the hospital and get Dad admitted. I have money; I've saved a large sum of money."
Li Mu's mother nodded: "Yes, it's time to be hospitalized! Go and make the arrangements... at least it will make your father suffer less."
Li Dawei lowered his head: "Okay, I'll contact them right away."
Li's mother said, "There's one more thing. Dawei, your father's condition requires constant care. I will stay with him at the hospital after he's admitted."
Li Dawei said, "I'll try my best. You know what my job is like..."
Li's mother understood: "I know, your father also said that you are a policeman and shouldn't let his illness interfere with your work. But I always hope that you two can talk more before he passes away."
Li Dawei was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll go ask my supervisor for leave."
That day, the director and instructor went to the bureau for a meeting, and Li Mu was on duty and presided over the institute's daily work.
