Making a living in Dongguan, her fiery red lips offer me tenderness.

Ding Yang said, "Wang Chan, if I asked you for money, would you lend it to me?"

"How much do you want to borrow?"

"I don't know how much right now, but don't worry, I won't fabricate facts to cheat you out of money. Otherwise, I'll end up as a fraudster. You're a lawyer, I'm not that stupid."

"You're crazy! I didn't mean it that way. What's wrong with you?"

"My grandfather is getting old, so I don't want him to raise pigs anymore. I'm going to find him something to do. I'm planning to demolish the whole house in our old home, including the pigsty, and rebuild a small rural villa so he can enjoy a few days of happiness."

"This is a good thing, we must support it. How much money is needed?"

"I've never built a house before, so I don't know the specifics, but I estimate it would cost at least 50 yuan."

"Xiaoyang, lending you 50 is fine, but the problem is why don't you ask Tan Yan for the money? 50 is just the cost of a meal for her, isn't it?"

"Attorney Wang, didn't you notice anything amiss?"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm using her supplementary credit card. I can spend whatever I want on things, but she won't give me cash. Is that how she can control me?"

"If I have a conflict with her, she will cut off my credit card, and I will be penniless again."

"What? You don't have any cash at all?"

"Yes, there is a total of 50. I've spent nearly 20 in the past two months, and now if I want to build a small villa and do a good job with the decoration, 30 won't be enough."

"I can't possibly make my grandfather take out his life savings just to build a house, can I? I'd rather not build it at all."

"When will you need it?"

"I'm going to build it when I go home this time. If you have one, I want it right now."

"Ding Yang, do you not want Tan Yan to know?"

"I really don't want her to know."

"What's wrong with you two? Why are you so wary of each other? You already have a child."

"Wang Chan, I don't know either. I know she's good to me, but I just don't want to ask. Will you lend it to me or not? Just tell me the truth."

"Damn it, you're asking me for money and you're acting all high and mighty, huh?"

"Sis, you've got me hooked on getting freebies from you, haven't you?"

"Scumbag!"

"How much do you want to borrow?"

"50, but to be honest, I don't know when I can pay you back."

"Brother, you have quite the appetite. 50 yuan could buy a small two-bedroom apartment in the outer suburbs."

"What? Afraid I can't pay you back?"

"Don't be afraid of me! If you don't pay up, I'll ask Yan'er for it."

"Sister, my borrowing money from you has absolutely nothing to do with her. If you're going to ask her for it back, then don't lend it to me. I just don't want her to know or have to pay me back. I might as well just ask her directly; isn't that just pointless?"

"Okay, then I won't tell her. Just give me your card number and I'll transfer the money to you."

"Xiaoyang, you don't need to rush to pay back this money. I want you to pay it back slowly. Anyway, even if you run away, you can't hide."

"Sister, can't you be a little kinder? Are you trying to make me pay for it with my body?"

"Hehe, you said it yourself? If you're willing, I wouldn't mind paying with my body."

"Damn it, I hope you get twins again."

"Gun Gun, are you cursing me?"

"Okay, I'm driving now, we're almost at Xiangmi Lake, I have to go now."

"Xiaoyang, you're leaving the day after tomorrow morning, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Then come to my place tomorrow and keep me company. I'll also buy some gifts for your grandma to take back with her; it'll be a token of my appreciation."

"Sister, no need. I've already bought a lot of gifts. I appreciate your kind gesture, but I won't go tomorrow. It's precisely at times like these that we need to stay calm. I'm afraid Tan Yan will become suspicious."

"Besides, your knees are all scraped, you should rest for a few days first. We haven't even met for long, and my kidneys need to recover too."

"asshole!"

"Alright, if I weren't a jerk, I wouldn't have met you. If I weren't a jerk, we wouldn't be having an affair. Actually, we're both fucking jerks."

"go!"

"Then promise me that when you get back to Shenzhen, don't go to Xiangmi Lake first. Come straight to my place, sleep in my room for one night, and then go to keep her company."

"Sister, I'm back in Shenzhen. Can I come see you first? As for when I'll go back to Xiangmihu, we'll talk about it later."

"That's more like it. I'll wait for you then."

"Um!"

"Alright, send me your card number, I'll transfer the money to you anytime."

"Sister, no rush, I'll send it to you when I get home."

"Whatever you say!"

I hung up the phone.

A dozen minutes later, we returned to Xiangmihu Villa.

Ding Yang took down the box and the gifts he bought.

Old Tan sat in the hall.

"Uncle! Auntie!"

"Xiao Yang!"

Aunt Tan asked, "Xiaoyang, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate. I ate out with my cousin."

"Xiaoyang, has the new car arrived?"

"I've brought it; it's parked outside. Please take a look."

Aunt Tan walked into the yard.

"Xiaoyang, why do you like this kind of primitive jeep?"

"I like this kind of vehicle; it's more rugged. I'm quite tall, so it's easier for me to drive an off-road vehicle."

Aunt Tan opened the car door, looking left and right.

"It's pretty good."

Back in the lobby.

"Uncle, I'm going upstairs now."

"Um!"

Ding Yang dragged his suitcase and carried his bag back to the second floor.

Tan Yan is in the study.

"Sis, why are you playing on the computer again? Didn't I tell you? The radiation is bad for the baby."

"It's only been a few minutes, let me check the European and American stock markets."

"Alright, that's enough for now, let's go."

Ding Yang held Tan Yan's hand,

"Let's go, be a good boy/girl."

"Sis, I'm going back the day after tomorrow, but I'm free tomorrow. How about I go with you to get an ultrasound?"

"No, I'm not going. The last ultrasound confirmed a uterine pregnancy, and the second one won't be until at least 12 weeks. Ultrasounds don't do much good for my health, so why go so frequently? I'll go in another two weeks."

"Sis, I'm going to give your dad a bath. I'll come back to keep you company later."

"Um!"

Ding Yang went downstairs to give Lao Tan a bath.

During this period, Ding Yang became a bath attendant, helping Lao Tan bathe almost every day, which became a habit, and now Lao Tan no longer refuses.

Today, Old Tang's face was very red, and I don't know why. He seemed a little unsteady on his feet.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

"Lock the door."

Ding Yang locked the bathroom door.

"What's wrong?"

"I feel a little dizzy."

"Oh no... could it be that my blood pressure is too high?"

"No, I don't have high blood pressure."

"What's wrong? Have you been taking some drugs? Did your secretary try to seduce you again?"

Old Tan was a little embarrassed.

"What's there to be embarrassed about with me? Tell me, there's nothing we can't talk about."

"I took one sildenafil pill today, and I feel a bit dizzy, my face is flushed, and I don't feel well."

"Uncle, isn't that Brother Wei? Why are you eating this stuff?"

"Just give it a try."

"Has your old flame come looking for you again?"

Old Tan nodded.
