I am a Good Man

Xi's mother was speechless.

She has never rented a house and doesn't know the market price.

Renting is so expensive, what will happen to their family in the future?

"Young man, please give me the landlord's phone number. When the contract expires, we will ask her to renew it." Father Xi said.

The young man took out his cell phone, and Xi's father wrote down the phone number, and called him on the spot just to be on the safe side.

The other party didn't answer and hung up twice in a row.

"She might be at work, you can send a text message and ask." The young man reminded him.

Father Xi hadn't sent a text message yet, but he sent a text message over there, "Sorry, I'm in a meeting and will contact you later."

He quickly replied, "You work first, don't be in a hurry."

To be on the safe side, Xi Lin and the young man signed a contract.

At noon, a woman called Xi's father, and the two chatted for a while. After it was confirmed, the Xi family felt relieved.

Xi Lin started to help them move their things. Everything from the sold house had to be moved out, half a truckload of scattered things.

After Xi's stroke, it was difficult for her to get on and off the elevator. She could only secretly wipe her tears while holding on to the dark wall and looking at the dim lights.

Xi Jing cried, made trouble, scolded and complained. Looking at her elderly parents, she seemed to have restrained herself a little and lived with them in a rental house.

However, Xi's mother no longer helped her take care of the children.

And she herself was still a child and didn't know much about anything. Xi's mother had not worked for decades, so all the burden fell on Xi's father.

However, Xi’s father doesn’t know how to cook, so eating takeout has become a common thing.

The family was crowded into a small space and lived a miserable life.

The Ran family got the result they wanted. There was no need for Xi Lin to coax him. Ran Shanshan was already back. She was still the same considerate person as before, and she even said a few words of sympathy for him.

However, Xi Lin no longer cared about her at all.

Their marriage is also on thin ice.

Another half month has passed.

When Cao Jin came back from get off work, he looked at the father and daughter playing with building blocks in the living room and hung the bag on the wall on the side.

It was already dark by this time, almost ten o'clock in the evening.

"Have you eaten yet?" Ji Yang turned to look at her, "You work overtime so late every day, do you want money or your life?"

"A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" She walked over and asked him.

"Of course that's good news. There's fried rice in the kitchen, go and eat it quickly." Ji Yang turned his head again and looked at the crooked "castle" built by Xiao Jinjin. He bent down and blew a big breath.

With a "bang", the "castle" built by Xiao Jinjin collapsed.

"Giggle." Not only was Xiao Jinjin not angry, she even narrowed her eyes with a smile, took the blocks into her arms, and continued to build them.

I built two pieces and asked my father to blow them down.

Cao Jin had been working overtime for more than half a month. He was so hungry that he walked out with fried rice and said, "The good news is that I have been promoted and my monthly salary has increased by 17,000."

At the end, she emphasized, "The bid passed."

It may have been Zhang's father or Zhang Hao's intention to be transferred to the headquarters in the first place. Even without them, she would only have been there for two years at the latest.

This time, it's time for her to prove herself.

"An annual salary of 700,000?" Ji Yang finally looked at her and spoke in a calm tone.

"Including performance, maybe one million, mainly because the plan I proposed was passed, and my current position is marketing director." Cao Jin took several bites of fried rice.

So hungry.

Almost choked.

"Why did it suddenly go up? One million is fine, it can support the two of us." Ji Yang half-joked, reaching out to poke at the blocks that Xiao Jinjin had just built.

It collapsed again.

"No." Xiao Jinjin was unhappy this time and reached out to pat him, "Dad, no."

Dad, who was always more naughty than her, stretched out a finger and poked the bottom piece, which completely collapsed.

Xiao Jinjin's face fell, and she crawled over and pushed him. She leaned on him with her chubby body and pushed him aside.

Ji Yang smiled happily and sat still.

He really never misses any opportunity to bully his daughter.

"Sister Mei wanted to have a baby, so she resigned, and I found out." Cao Jin felt that she was indeed lucky, and thought she would have to settle down for another two years.

"Isn't that more difficult?" Ji Yang asked, "You should pay attention to your health."

"Hard work means hard work, I am willing to do it." Cao Jin poured himself a glass of water, "I may have to be busy in the past two years."

She didn't care. It was even harder than this when she just graduated. There was no harvest yet, it was all done little by little.

The road up is always tiring.

"What's the bad news?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

Hearing this, Cao Jin stopped eating and asked, "Has Zhang Hao not contacted you for a long time?"

Ji Yang thought about it carefully, "...it's been more than ten days? It's true that there hasn't been any movement. It's been very stable recently."

After speaking, he smiled and said, "It seems that I have become busier when I go back to work in the company, and my life must be very fulfilling."

Cao Jin's eyes flashed slightly, and his tone was a little serious, "I heard today... Mr. Zhang may have brain cancer."

Ji Yang's smile suddenly froze, and his expression was unclear.

"I'm not sure, but they are all saying that they were hospitalized some time ago and were sent to the ICU a few days ago. It's quite serious." Cao Jin said, and the fried rice in the bowl became less fragrant.

She felt that the Zhang family was very kind to them. Zhang's father was the pillar of the Zhang family, and Zhang Hao had not had time to grow up.

Ji Yang didn't say anything more. He seemed to sigh and reached out to poke down the little house built by Xiao Jinjin. In the end, he didn't do it. He raised his hand and touched her soft hair.

"Dad..." Xiao Jinjin looked up at him, climbed into his arms, pursed her lips, "Sleep."

"Okay, let's go to bed." He picked up his daughter and looked at Cao Jin, "Hurry up and finish your meal and go to bed. Don't stay up late. Your health is important."
