When Wang Gang finished his meal and wanted to leave, Zhuang Chaoying privately pulled him to the side and whispered a few words.

"Wu Shanshan will be transferred to the countryside to teach soon. When you go home, tell your mother that Wu Shanshan will no longer care about her house in the future."

"You asked Wu Shanshan to transfer it?"

"I have an old classmate working in the Education Bureau." Zhuang Chaoying stopped.

Wang Gang knew it and said, "I will tell my mother."

Zhuang Chaoying sighed and said, "Don't tell you that I did it."

Wang Gang said in surprise: "Why?"

Zhuang Chaoying said: "Everyone is remarried, it is better to have less than more things."

Wang Gang nodded, glanced at Du Juan not far away, and said, "You are really ready to help others raise their son."

Zhuang Chaoying explained: "Don't worry about me, I will do it myself."

Wang Gang reminded: "Have your salary yourself in the future."

"I know." Zhuang Chaoying asked, "Xiaoting talked very little when she and Dongzhe were about to get married?"

"After graduation!" Wang Gang said uncertainly: "Actually, both families are ready for marriage and can do it anytime."

"I saw that Dongzhe growing up. He was a good child. He was a little bit naughty. It was uncertain. You and your mother looked at him more in the future."

Zhuang Chaoying took out a red cloth bag, stuffed it into Wang Gang's hand, and said, "This is my dowry to Xiaoting, you can hand it over to her."

Wang Gang touched the red cloth bag and felt that it should be a bracelet inside.

"Okay, I'll leave it to Xiaoting."

Zhuang Chaoying asked again: "What do you and Lingling say? You don't want a child even after so many years of marriage?"

Wang Gang explained: "I studied for a PhD in the UK before and got away from Lingling. I won't know how to do it anymore. I have accepted the invitation from Fudan University and will go to the capital to participate in the compilation of international law in a while."

"That's good." Zhuang Chaoying sighed: "You and Xiaoting will definitely stay in Shanghai to develop in the future. I will visit you if I have the opportunity."

"good."

Wang Gang and Zhuang Chaoying chatted for a few more times, then left the hotel, and Zhuang Xiaoting had already parked her car at the intersection.

After getting in the car, Wang Gang handed the red cloth bag to Zhuang Xiaoting.

"This is the dowry my dad gave you."

Zhuang Xiaoting opened the cloth bag and placed a gold bracelet inside. It seemed to be quite heavy.

"Dad is so generous. When I got married, he gave him 100 yuan." Wang Gang teased.

Zhuang Xiaoting silently put away the gold bracelet without wearing it on her hands.

After returning to the alley, Wang Gang and Zhuang Xiaoting did not get off the bus. They would take Huang Ling and Song Ying to the station later.

When Huang Ling and Song Ying were waiting, Wang Gang found Wu Shanshan walking towards the car, as if she was looking for him.

"Brother, do you want to see Wu Shanshan?" Zhuang Xiaoting glanced at Wang Gang.

"I'll go and chat for a while, you can take your mother and Aunt Song to the station first."

Wang Gang opened the car door and walked out of the car directly.

Wu Shanshan stood not far away, and her eyes looked very complicated when she looked at Wang Gang.

Wang Gang pointed to the entrance of the alley and signaled Wu Shanshan to come over.

Wu Shanshan understood and followed Wang Gang silently.

"Are you coming to me to plead for Liu Jian and your father?" Wang Gang said straight to the point.

"It's you." Wu Shanshan didn't expect Wang Gang to be so direct.

Wang Gang sneered and said, "Yes, I asked Liu Jian to be a porter, and I also added your father's name to the laid-off list."

Wu Shanshan sighed, "Can you let them go? I promise not to hit Aunt Huang Ling's house again."

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "It's too late to know that I regret it now."

Wu Shanshan said with a complicated look on her face: "Do you blame me?"

Wang Gang snorted coldly: "You shouldn't make my mother sad."

Wu Shanshan suddenly laughed, confusing Wang Gang.

"why are you laughing?"

Wu Shanshan put away her smile and asked back: "Do you hate me very much now?"

Wang Gang frowned and said in confusion: "Are you crazy?"

Wu Shanshan smiled miserably and said, "Since I can't get your love, I can make you hate me."

Wang Gang said in surprise: "You robbed my mother's house just to make me hate you."

Wu Shanshan sighed quietly: "I have liked you a long time ago, but you only treat me as your neighbor's little sister, and I'm afraid that one day you will forget me."

Wang Gang said in shock: "Are you crazy?"

Wu Shanshan shook her head and said, "I'm not crazy. I just want to have a small position in your heart. Even if you hate me, it doesn't matter."

Wang Gang slowly calmed down, and looked at Wu Shanshan as if he was looking at a madman.

Wu Shanshan said: "Don't look at me like this. I'm not crazy. I just like you too much, but you're too dazzling. I know I'm not worthy of you, but I'm not willing to give up."

"You are stupid to read!" Wang Gang said speechlessly.

"Do you know, I actually went there on the day you got married, but I dare not go in, I was afraid that I would not be able to stand it." Wu Shanshan said quietly:

"Later, I asked you to borrow money, and I actually wanted to stay in Shanghai and be closer to you."

"Crazy woman." Wang Gang cursed inwardly, and then said, "You are already married, stop thinking about it, live a good life with your husband!"

Wu Shanshan nodded and said, "I have accepted my fate for a long time, so I accept Liu Jian's proposal, but every night I pretend that Liu Jian is you."

Wang Gang took a deep breath and felt that Wu Shanshan was really sick. She was in advanced stage of brain cancer.

Wu Shanshan finally said what she thought and felt relaxed.

"Brother Toonan, I will go to the countryside to teach, and I don't ask you to let go of my dad and Liu Jian, as long as you don't forget me."

Wang Gang cursed a madman and turned around and left. Wu Shanshan did not chase him, but just looked at Wang Gang's back.

Later, Wu Shanshan obeyed the arrangement and went to teach and began to live a long separation from Liu Jian.

Wu Jianguo was also laid off and left the cotton spinning factory to do odd jobs using his own woodworking skills.

Liu Jian was transferred to work as a porter. After two days of work, he couldn't continue. He took the initiative to resign. Then, under the arrangement of his father, he found a job that was easier but not high.

Liu Jian's father was transferred to the Wuxi branch factory. He soon went bankrupt due to poor management of the branch factory and was transferred back to the factory, but he could no longer serve as deputy factory director. Later, as the cotton spinning factory became more difficult to return, he was finally laid off.

After Wang Gang and Zhuang Xiaoting returned to Shanghai, they never returned to Suzhou again. Instead, Zhuang Chaoying came to Shanghai to gather with his children when he had time.

Zhuang’s father and mother are still taking care of Juying Zhuang’s hostage, but they can no longer get a penny from Zhuang Chaoying.

Du Juan is indeed a difficult person to mess with. She has tightly squeezed Zhuang Chaoying's money and will not let go no matter how his father and mother are.

Zhuang Chaoying wanted to raise Du Juan's son, but he had no spare money to support his parents.

As for Zhuang Hualin, his son Xiang Pengfei made some money in the transportation business, but because of his childhood, Zhuang Hualin would not care about his parents' lives or death.

In his later years, Zhuang’s mother lived a very unsatisfactory life, and Zhuang’s father even had to collect rags to subsidize the household income.

After graduation, Zhuang Xiaoting and Lin Dongzhe, one entered Huang Ling's company to take over, and the other entered a foreign company as a salesperson, and both developed very well.
