006 Society's offcuts, also mom's little pride

Wancheng affluent district.

In Rose City, inside a 160 square meters large flat, Shen Rongfei was sitting in her bedroom, dealing with company affairs online.

At this time, the Shen family had not yet fallen on hard times.

And her husband had not yet met the woman who bore him a son, insisting on abandoning his wife and daughter.

Family life could be said to be very comfortable.

Suddenly, the sound of a QQ cough notification rang out, an 18-year-old boy had sent a friend request to her QQ, accompanied by the words, "Hello."

She glanced at it and then closed the message.

Although it was very popular to chat online in this era,

At 42, she had nothing to chat about with children.

After a while, Shen Rongfei went to her daughter Su Mengchen's room.

"Mengchen,"

"Do you want to go on a trip? Mom will take you to Hong Village for a visit."

Hong Village is a village in Wancheng with strong characteristics of Huizhou architecture; Shen Rongfei had been there a few times before and liked the atmosphere there very much.

At this moment, looking at her daughter's pale ankles, her heart couldn't help but ache again.

Such a beautiful daughter, who had perfectly inherited her own advantages in terms of appearance and figure.

Yet she was congenitally disabled, her condition had baffled many hospitals.

"Mom, I don't want to go out."

Looking at Shen Rongfei in front of her, dressed in black stockings and high heels, Su Mengchen felt deeply inferior and envious.

Not only did her mother resemble the star Zeng Li, but she also had a much better figure, with a D+ bust size.

If only she could walk in high heels like her mother.

Usually, her female classmates in school would call her a 'cripple' behind her back.

Those words, like swords, continuously pierced through Su Mengchen's scar-laden heart.

"Think about it again,"

"Will you?"

"I understand, Mom…"

The mother-daughter conversation was brief, and after leaving the room, Shen Rongfei went to the study.

Her husband Su Yu, with a face full of stubble, was busy with company affairs.

She and Su Yu each had their own companies, so they were usually very busy.

And today, Su Yu had also returned home, a rare occurrence.

"Husband, can you not leave tonight? I miss you."

Shen Rongfei couldn't remember how long it had been since they last had an intimate moment, she was a normal woman and naturally wanted to keep Su Yu with her.

"I still have things to do in the company later, and I have to dine with Director Sun,"

"So I won't be able to accompany you."

"Okay."

His wife naturally had a seductive face.

Beautiful and voluptuous, she loved to wear black stockings and high heels, and she was the D+ version of Zeng Li; it was impossible for a normal man not to be moved.

But, every time he thought about being intimate with his wife,

The disgusting scene from the delivery room echoed in his mind, extinguishing all his interest.

She quietly exited the study, returned to the master bedroom, locked the door, and began to weep silently over the desk.

Her husband's loss of interest in her had started the moment he entered the delivery room.

Everybody said not to let your husband watch you give birth, and she had not believed it initially.

But now, after so many years...

The issues with her husband and her daughter weighed heavily on Shen Rongfei's mind.

It made her feel very oppressed, and she could only express her emotions through tears.

...

Over an hour later, seeing that his friend request had still not been answered,

Li Zhiyan knew that there was no point in hurrying; this QQ was probably still being used by his future mother-in-law.

How could she possibly accept a friend request from an 18-year-old boy online?

At this time, Su Mengchen's family should still be very wealthy.

The incident where her mother-in-law was cheated on and divorced never happened. Li Zhiyan didn't know much about Su Mengchen's family affairs, he only knew that she now lived in the affluent area, but didn't know exactly where.

"Forget it, there are only forty days left until college starts."

"It'll be here in the blink of an eye."

"I'll go find her then."

Since he had been reborn, Li Zhiyan felt that his object of affection had changed from a young girl to a mature woman.

But for Su Mengchen alone, his love for her was truly from the soul. Li Zhiyan had never thought before that, apart from his mother,

there would be a girl who could love him like his own mother did.

In this life, he must protect her well.

Of course, he needs to complete the system's tasks well.

Although the system is weak, in this society, only with money can one protect everything one wishes to protect.

Natural disasters, weddings, funerals, and all unpredictables need money to support them.

"Damn, these teammates really suck!"

Li Shiyu was still cursing and swearing.

Li Zhiyan glanced at his score.

1/15.

"Okay, I'll log on now, and we'll play together."

The breath of youth constantly assailed him, allowing Li Zhiyan to reintegrate into the age of 18.

"You go over to the other side and spot for me. I'll slay these bastards."

...

The two played at the New Year's Square until after six, Li Zhiyan figured his mother would be off work by now.

"Li Shiyu, I need to go home."

He pulled out the last hundred-yuan note he had on him, knowing that Li Shiyu was really broke now; having internet for today meant no funds for tomorrow.

But even so, he had to buy two bottles of cola for the brothers to share.

"Here, take this for internet fees."

"No way, are you crazy? Where are you getting all this money from?"

Li Zhiyan then said, "Don't worry, I have money now. If you really feel bad about it, you can just pay me back when you get your living expenses in college."

Both of their schools were not top tier, one was at a second-rate university, and the other was at a college, but fortunately, they were not far from each other.

They could still hang out and play CrossFire or Dungeon Fighter Online together after entering university.

"Alright then."

In the end, Li Shiyu couldn't resist the temptation of being able to play freely at the New Year's Square for the next ten days and took Li Zhiyan's money.

After they parted, Li Zhiyan headed straight home.

On the way, Li Zhiyan's steps were light. He was going to see his mother again.

His mother had the accident the year after he started college.

She went to work in Magic Capital, hoping to earn more money to buy a house for him.

The salary level in Wancheng was indeed too low.

And unexpectedly, she had an accident a year later, never to return.

Li Zhiyan didn't know how many times he had cried.

But soon, he would see his mother again.

A few minutes later, Li Zhiyan finally arrived home.

The sunlight slanted into the old residential alley, shining through the shade of the trees onto the young man.

A distant light flitted through the boy's eyes.

Li Zhiyan gradually closed his eyes.

He remembered asking his mother a question when he was 17.

"Mom, I'm so ordinary, I'm afraid no girl will like me and want to stay with me till old age."

Under the summer moonlight in the countryside, Zhou Rongrong touched her son's head tenderly.

"There is. When Mom first saw you, she was also a girl full of youth."

He may have been a nobody in society, but he was also his mother's little pride!

Tears silently fell as Li Zhiyan lifted his foot.

Home!
