The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

The old town.

Anju Community.

Lin Ming carried a lot of things and lay down in front of the security door.

"Xuanxuan, it's Dad, can you open the door for Dad?"

"No, Mom said Xuanxuan is not allowed to open the door for anyone."

The little girl's childish voice came from the old rental house.

Lin Ming said helplessly: "Didn't you call Dad the night before yesterday? Dad knows that you care about Dad, so I came to see you today and bought you your favorite fried chicken burger and toys."

"Really?"

Hearing 'fried chicken burger', Xuanxuan's voice became pleasantly surprised.

But soon, that little face fell.

"But...but mom doesn't let me open the door casually, and mom asked me to make that call. I don't dare to call you myself, and you're angry and want to hit me again."

Through the crack of the security door, Lin Ming looked at the thin little face, and his eyes were red.

"Dad, why don't you talk?" Xuanxuan asked.

"Dad is here, Dad didn't leave. Since mom doesn't let you open the door for dad, then Dad will wait for mom to come back here." Lin Ming said.

"But there is no place to sit outside. Will Dad be very tired?" Xuanxuan pouted.

"Not tired, not tired... As long as I can see Xuanxuan, Dad will not be tired no matter how long he stands."

Lin Ming turned his head and two lines of tears flowed unconsciously.

Just at this time, the door of the unit opposite opened.

An old lady in her seventies came out. It was Grandma Wang who lived opposite.

She heard Xuanxuan's movement and was worried that the little girl was alone at home, so she came out to see.

In the past, she took good care of Chen Jia and Xuan Xuan. Sometimes she would send delicious food to them. Now Lin Ming was very grateful to her.

"Grandma Wang." Lin Ming called out.

"What do you want to do?" Wang Lanmei showed her vigilance.

In the past, Lin Ming would not call her 'Grandma Wang', but always 'dead old woman'. Several times, he even thought Wang Lanmei was meddling in other people's business and almost smashed the door of the unit.

"I... I came back to see Xuan Xuan." Lin Ming said awkwardly.

"Jia Jia isn't here, right? Are you trying to trick Xuan Xuan into opening the door for you again, and then go home and steal the money?"

Wang Lanmei was so angry that she pointed at Lin Ming and said, "Lin Ming, Lin Ming, you are not a child anymore, and Xuan Xuan is about to go to kindergarten. Can you let her and her mother go for once? Jia Jia earns less than 4,000 yuan a month, and she works herself to death every day. She has to support Xuan Xuan and help you pay off your debts. She can't even afford to eat, so where can she get the money for you to lose?"

"Look at yourself, and then look at others. Even if they are not rich, they at least have hands and feet, and they are all working hard to make their wives and children live a good life. days. "

"What about you? What have you done all these years? Jia Jia is such a good woman, but you beat her into the hospital several times. Do you still have humanity? !"

"And Xuan Xuan, she is just a child, what does she know? Why do you take it out on her every time you lose money? Do you know how much damage this will cause to her? Do you know that this will bring her a childhood shadow that will be indelible for the rest of her life! "

"Go out and ask around, is there any father like you? !"

Wang Lanmei and her husband used to be teachers, but later they were not retired, but were fired for some reasons.

The professional qualities she has developed over the years made her really dislike Lin Ming.

So, even if she knew that Lin Ming didn't like to hear it, she had to say it.

At the end, she was so angry that she took her crutches and raised her hand to hit Lin Ming.

This time, Lin Ming did not dodge, but just stood there bitterly.

But in the rental house, Xuan Xuan's shouting came.

"Don't hit my dad!"

Wang Lanmei paused and put down her crutches again.

"Even if you are such a jerk, Xuanxuan is still on your side. Check your conscience and ask yourself whether you are worthy of them!"

After Wang Lanmei finished speaking, she turned around and was about to go home.

"Grandma Wang!"

Lin Ming took out a thousand yuan and said, "This is the thousand yuan I owe you, and these canned food and pure milk. Consider it my filial piety to Grandpa Song. Please don't despise it."

Looking at the money in Lin Ming's hand, Wang Lanmei couldn't believe it.

Ever since Lin Ming became addicted to gambling, Wang Lanmei never thought about getting back the thousand yuan.

It has been four years now, and Lin Ming

He never thought of returning it, and even tried to borrow it several times, but Wang Lanmei didn't lend it to him.

Why did he suddenly change his nature?

Wang Lanmei didn't bother to ask more, and snorted: "I have money, if you really have a conscience, you can let Jiajia save the money for you. As for these canned food and pure milk, I don't want them. Give them to Xuanxuan to supplement her nutrition. This child has never been fat!"

"Grandma Wang!"

Lin Ming knelt on the ground with a plop, which scared Wang Lanmei.

"A man's knees are made of gold. What are you doing? I can tell you that I have seen through you over the years. Even if you do this, I will not lend you money again!"

"Grandma Wang, I have fallen into depravity in the past few years and am worse than an animal. Fortunately, you and Grandpa Song took care of Jiajia and her mother. I, Lin Ming, will remember this kindness in my heart."

Lin Ming said in a deep voice: "I know that you may not believe me, but I swear that I will never be the same as before. I will treat Jiajia and Xuanxuan well, and I will also treat you and Grandpa Song as my own grandpa and grandma to show my filial piety!"

If you want to say who has treated Chenjia and Xuanxuan the best in these years, apart from their parents and parents-in-law, it is undoubtedly Wang Lanmei and her old man.

After waking up, Lin Ming realized how good these old couple were.

No blood relationship, better than blood relationship.

They are worthy of Lin Ming's kneeling.

"You..."

Seeing that Lin Ming did not seem to be pretending, Wang Lanmei quickly helped Lin Ming up.

"The sea of ​​suffering is endless, turn back before it's too late."

Wang Lanmei's eyes were wet, and she helped Lin Ming pat the dust off his knees.

"You are only 30 years old, you still have a bright future. If you can really figure it out, it's still not too late to change now. Grandma is also happy for you."

In the end, Wang Lanmei still couldn't beat Lin Ming, and left the thousand yuan and the things Lin Ming brought her.

At the same time, Lin Ming also declined to go to Wang Lanmei's house to wait for Chen Jia, he wanted to talk to Xuanxuan more.

More than half an hour passed, and Lin Ming and Xuanxuan, the father and daughter, chatted like this.

Lin Ming sometimes told Xuanxuan stories, and sometimes teased her a few words, making the little girl laugh happily.

Although Wang Lanmei went home, she had been hiding behind the door and listening carefully.

In the end, she found that Lin Ming seemed to be really different from before.

Da Da Da...

Footsteps sounded in the corridor.

The first thing Lin Ming saw was the pair of high heels that were so familiar to him.

Since getting married, Chen Jia never seemed to buy high heels again.

She was obviously a woman who loved high heels!

"What are you doing here?"

Chen Jia's cold voice broke Lin Ming's thoughts.

"Huh..."

Lin Ming took a long breath and smiled at Chen Jia.

"Hello, my name is Lin Ming."
