Wu Mingcheng smiled but didn't speak. If he revealed his grandfather's name, Chen Xincheng would be astonished; the man was practically a household name throughout China.
Chen Xincheng then looked at Li Dawei beside him.
"Dawei, you should watch your approach. Don't go too far. There are so many phones filming around."
Li Dawei said ingratiatingly,
“Master, I don’t care if he wants to hit others, but he can’t hit my master.”
Chen Xincheng kept a straight face, but a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Alright, be more careful next time,"
Upon hearing Li Dawei's words, Wu Mingcheng smiled and gave him a thumbs up. The flattery was spot on. Chen Xincheng no longer felt the initial aversion towards Li Dawei.

They had only taken two steps when Li Dawei's phone rang. He glanced at it and saw it was his mother calling.
He walked to the side and answered the call.
"Mom, I'm at work. Is something wrong? What? What?"
When Li Dawei answered the phone and heard his mother's words, he froze on the spot.
Chen Xincheng and Wu Mingcheng stood not far away, waiting. Seeing Li Dawei's reaction, they knew something must have happened at Li Dawei's home.
After a while, Li Dawei hurried over. His face was extremely pale.
"Master, I'm sorry, I need to ask for leave to go home."
Chen Xincheng inquired,
"What? What happened?"
Li Dawei hesitated for a moment.
"I'm sorry, I can't say right now. Can I go back to '910'?"
Chen Xincheng nodded.
"Go back and change out of your police uniform,"
Li Dawei quickly agreed.
"Yes,"
Wu Mingcheng said from the side,
"If you need any help, just give me a call. Don't hesitate to ask."
Li Dawei looked at Wu Mingcheng with gratitude.
"Thanks, Mingcheng, I have to go back now."
Li Dawei quickly changed his clothes in the car and rushed home.
He shouted as soon as he entered the door.
"Mother,"
Upon hearing Li Dawei's voice, Li's mother came out of the bedroom, her eyes red, and hugged Li Dawei, bursting into tears.
"Dawei,"
Li Dawei was also feeling bad at this moment, and offered some words of comfort.
"Mom, don't cry. I'll take care of everything, no matter how big the problem is. What happened?"
Li's mother spoke first.
"Your dad has a glioma. I didn't want to tell you at first, but after visiting several hospitals, it turned out to be it."
Li Dawei looked around.
"What about him?"
Li's mother lowered her head and said.
"He went out to visit his old friends."
Upon hearing his mother's words, Li Dawei jumped up and angrily said,
"No wonder you came back. No wonder you said you wouldn't leave again after coming back this time."
So he knew he was sick all along, and came back asking us to treat his illness and take care of him in his old age. Is he even human?
Knowing that her son harbored deep resentment towards his father, Li Yisheng, Li's mother pleaded.
"Dawei, he's your dad."
Upon hearing this, Li Dawei became even angrier.
"So what if he's my dad? Don't all bastards in the world have sons? He thinks he can extort money from me just because he had me? No way!"
At this moment, Li's mother said with a sorrowful expression,
"David, glioma is incurable,"
Li Dawei was stunned for a moment, then became even angrier.
"So that's why he came back? There's no such thing as a free lunch! When he was healthy and able to eat, drink, and play, he was always running around the world, causing trouble everywhere he went."
He went home because he has a terminal illness? Tell him to come back; I'm going to have a serious talk with him. I'm calling him.
As he spoke, Li Dawei took out his phone to call his bastard father.
Li's mother rushed over to stop him and tried to snatch his phone.
"Dawei, you can't do this. He's your own father, he has an incurable disease, and this is the time when he needs comfort from his family."
Li Dawei said emotionally at this moment.
"Bullshit! We've got ourselves stuck with a jerk like this, who are we going to comfort us from? Mom, don't stop me!"
Li's mother stopped him desperately, saying,
“Dawei, Mom knew he had this illness, that's why I asked him to come back. It was Mom's own choice.”
Upon learning that his mother knew about Li Yisheng's illness beforehand, Li Dawei was somewhat incredulous.
"what?"
Li's mother sighed.
"Dawei, can't you see how much Mom loves Dad?"
Li Dawei stood there stunned, and questioned him.
"You love him? Haven't you suffered enough at his hands in your life? Before he came back, didn't you file for divorce?"
Li's mother said,
"Yes, Mom hated him back then, hated him for not coming home, but he's back now, isn't he?"
Li Dawei was both anxious and angry at this moment.
"Mom, you're such a... how can I even begin to describe you?"
Li's mother wiped away her tears and said with emotion,
"Dawei, Mom loves your dad, has loved him her whole life, and that hasn't changed."
In other people's eyes, he was a good-for-nothing, a lazy bum.
But in Mom's eyes, everything about your dad that others might not like, Mom loves.
Look at all these people in the world, all striving for fame and fortune, everyone wanting to stand out. How tiring their lives must be!
But your father is a man who lives a carefree life, someone who doesn't pursue worldly fame and fortune, and who wholeheartedly wants to live a free life.
Like everyone else, Mom spent her whole life struggling to make a living, witnessing only people scheming and plotting against each other for profit and power.
Compared to them, even if your dad is a good-for-nothing, he's still more innocent and more lovable.
As long as your dad is around, Mom feels relaxed and happy. Isn't that enough?
Hearing his mother's words, Li Dawei was speechless. He hadn't expected his mother to have such deep feelings for his scoundrel father.
Li's mother was looking at him at this moment.
“Dawei, even though you don’t approve of your dad, you actually take after him,”
Li Dawei argued that
"Impossible, how could I possibly follow his example?"
Li's mother spoke first.
"From a young age, other children always strived to be number one, but you always counted down from 5 or 6. Other children were disciplined, but you were constantly being called in by your parents."
You live a free, carefree, sunny, and happy life. Aren't all of these things given to you by your father?
But you have one advantage over your dad: you're more responsible and know how to take responsibility.
Dawei, because of your dad, I was able to have you, so I also have to thank your dad.”
Li Dawei didn't know what to say.
