After being reborn, I decisively broke off my engagement and married a cold-faced military young mas

Chapter 500 You Deserve Better

Fang Qing stood far away, not daring to utter a sound.

Lu Cong glanced at her and said coldly, "Let her out. I don't want to see her."

Lu Jiangting nodded and turned to look at Fang Qing.

Fang Qing was quite sensible and said in a low voice, "I'll go back and cook, then bring it over."

After saying that, she quickly left.

Now only the three of them remained in the ward.

Lu Cong asked, "Jiang Ting, what are your plans now?"

"We're getting a divorce, and she's already agreed to give me custody of Chenchen."

Lu Cong nodded with his eyes closed. "Okay, you deserve better, but with Wang Chenchen with you, it might be hard to find a good family to marry into."

For Lu Jiangting, not being able to marry Yuyao was irrelevant; whether he got married or not, and who he married, was all the same to him.

So she comforted Lu Cong, saying, "No, Chenchen is different. He is Jianjun's son and the orphan of a martyr. An upright and kind girl would be proud to adopt Chenchen."

"That's true, but it's too easy on Fang Qing. If she had done something like this decades ago, she would have been drowned in a pig cage."

Lu Jiangting held Lu Cong's hand and said, "Father, you can't tell anyone about Fang Qing."

"I know, it's so embarrassing, but don't worry, we won't tell anyone."

“I’m not afraid of losing face, but Fang Qing’s situation is at least a hooliganism offense. If she is convicted, it will affect Chenchen’s future political review.”

"She did something so shameless, and we have to cover for her?"

Lu Jiangting lowered his head, looking dejected.

Wang Cuilan nudged the old man, signaling him to say less.

Jiang Ting is already bad enough, so why criticize him further?

The old man sighed and said, "Of course I won't tell anyone, I'm just so angry. Our family is so innocent, yet we have to go through this."

“Yes, who wouldn’t be angry about this? If it were Yuyao back then…” She stopped mid-sentence when she saw Lu Jiangting’s increasingly grim expression.

"Forget about her. Jiang Ting, go ask your father when he can come home given his condition."

Lu Jiangting nodded and went out to ask the doctor.

The doctor told him that although he was out of immediate danger, it was only temporary, and he would need to stay in the hospital for observation for a few more days.

When Lu Jiangting returned, he told them, "The doctor said I need to be hospitalized for observation for a week."

"Oh? It'll take that long. How much will that cost? I'm not staying here anymore, I want to go back."

"Dad." Lu Jiangting pressed him back down and said, "Just lie down and rest. It won't cost much. We can reimburse a large part of it."

"That's money too."

"It doesn't cost much to stay here. If you go back and something happens to you and you have to be brought here for emergency treatment, that's when it will cost money."

"But living here isn't convenient either; it's hard to find food and drink."

At this moment, Wang Cuilan said, "What's inconvenient? Let Fang Qing cook and bring us the food, and let her take our clothes home to wash if they're dirty. It's her shameful deeds that made you so angry, she deserves to take responsibility."

The old man thought about it and agreed. It would be too easy for Fang Qing to just get a divorce like this. He would take advantage of his hospitalization to torment her to death.

Fang Qing is in a terrible situation now. She hasn't even fully recovered, yet she has to run between home and the hospital, and she also has to take care of picking up and dropping off the children.

Wang Chenchen also sensed that something was wrong at home, and she lived cautiously, only occasionally asking when her grandparents would be back.

On the other side, Lu Jiangting, still furious, went to confront Yang Guangzong, only to find out that he had already run away.

Enraged, he kicked the door hard.

Damn it, he even tricked me when I was trying to run away.

"He went back to his hometown?" Lu Jiangting asked his neighbor.

"No, I heard she found a job and can earn four or five hundred a month."

Can you earn four or five hundred?

Why do we seem so familiar?

He suddenly remembered the job Fang Qing had mentioned a few days ago.

"Fang Qing helped him find it?"

"How would I know? Isn't he a relative of yours? Don't you know?"

"I...I'm usually busy with work, so I didn't ask much."

"Oh, no wonder. Someone was recruiting nearby a few days ago, and he probably applied himself. The salary was quite attractive, but unfortunately they didn't want an old lady, otherwise I would have wanted to go too."

Ha, no education required, only four or five hundred a month?

You can only dream of such good fortune falling from the sky.

Lu Jiangting felt that he had either been tricked into working as a laborer at sea or into working in an illegal coal mine.

……

Time flies, and Lin Ping's one-month summer job ended. He returned to Nancheng with Lin Yuyao.

For the next two weeks, the director didn't make him act as a stunt double for getting beaten up anymore, and the bruises on his body had all healed.

He excitedly called his hometown to tell them that he had earned more than 300 yuan from his summer job.

Ye Lian simply didn't believe it. "How could you earn over three hundred yuan? Lin Ping, did you sell your blood?"

Lin Ping: "..."

"Mom, do you have a problem with me? It's only right that my older brother and sister earn money, but I earn money by selling my blood. I'll sell it to you, do you want it?"

"Pah, what would I do with your blood? I'd be too old to make spicy blood curd. Honestly, what makes you so rich?"

"I'm going to become an actor and film TV dramas."

Ye Lian: "Really? Don't try to fool me, kid."

"Really, if you don't believe me, go watch it on TV later."

"Okay, what time will it be released?"

"They haven't finished filming yet, so it won't be released so soon. Let my sister tell you when it's released."

"Okay, then I'll keep watch. You can't fool me. We have a TV at home now."

Lin Ping only stayed here for two days before he had to go back to school. In the blink of an eye, he was already a junior in college. Time really flies.

After running around for a few months and becoming familiar with the business, Lin Gang discussed it with Lin Yuyao and decided to go solo.

"I did the math, and if I were to work for myself, even renting a car would be more profitable than working for a boss."

Isn’t that right?

Working for someone else is nothing compared to being your own boss.

"So, brother, have you mastered this line of work?"

"That's about it. Every city has its own distribution center for goods, and different items are managed by specialists. Right now, there's a huge shortage in transportation, and a lot of goods are piling up in the distribution centers, just waiting for trucks to come and ship them."

As soon as our truck arrived, they were offering cigarettes and handing out red envelopes, all hoping their goods would be shipped out quickly. I didn't even need to find goods myself; the cargo owners were only worried about not having enough trucks.

Lin Yuyao knew there was a large transportation gap, but she didn't expect it to be this big.

"Okay, let's buy a car first. I've inquired, and a Jiefang or Dongfeng brand truck costs between 30,000 and 50,000 yuan."

Lin Gang looked conflicted.

Lin Yuyao said, "Consider it a loan from me. You can pay me back when you make money. We still have that much affection between us siblings."

Lin Gang sighed softly, then nodded, "Okay, I'll pay you back when I make money."

"Then you should register a transportation company."

"Listen to you."

Do you have a partner? You can't drive long distances alone.
