Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

After his aunt left, Zhou Sen fell on the sofa with his arms and legs spread out, and sighed, "Ah~ I'm so happy!"

Zhou Xinyao came to Zhou Sen with a smile on her face.

"Zhou Min, do you know? I'm really happy now, so happy~"

Zhou Sen sat up straight, looked up at Zhou Xinyao, and shouted passionately.

Amid Zhou Sen's joyful laughter, Zhou Xinyao also felt unprecedented relaxation.

She didn't know why, but she always felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart.

Seeing Zhou Xinyao frowning slightly, Zhou Sen asked in confusion: "Zhou Min, what are you thinking about?"

"I didn't think anything..." Zhou Xinyao responded with a smile.

Zhou Sen could see that Zhou Xinyao was thinking about the past again.

Seeing Zhou Xinyao like this, Zhou Sen's fiery mood gradually died down.

She will leave eventually, and I shouldn't have any inappropriate thoughts, Zhou Sen warned himself in his heart.

"Zhou Min, please sit here for a while. I'll go down and get the bag. It's time to throw it away soon."

Zhou Sen continued with a smile.

"Let me go down with you. Your hand is still bleeding."

"No, I can do it myself."

"Come on, let's go down together."

At Zhou Xinyao's insistence, she followed Zhou Sen downstairs.

But when they arrived at the door downstairs, they were both dumbfounded.

The snakeskin bag placed at the door disappeared.

"Fuck! I clearly put my stuff here, why is it gone now?"

Zhou Sen shouted angrily.

"I remember putting it here, how come it's gone?" Zhou Xinyao muttered.

"Damn, damn thief!" Zhou Sen cursed angrily.

"Maybe someone threw it away as trash? Let me look for it~"

Zhou Xinyao then went to the trash can outside the door and took a few looks, but did not find the snakeskin bag.

"With something as big as a snakeskin bag, you can spot it at a glance. Now it's gone, so it must have been taken away. I'll call the landlord and ask him!"

Zhou Sen couldn't wait to call the landlady.

The phone rang for a long time before the landlady answered it.

"Xiao Zhou, why are you calling your aunt so soon?" the landlady asked with a smile.

"Auntie, when you came down just now, did you see the snakeskin bag I left at the door of the room?"

"Oh~ Let me think~ I really didn't see it!"

The landlady said thoughtfully.

"My bag is missing. It must have been taken away by someone. What should I do?" Zhou Sen asked resentfully.

"Look again, maybe you saw it wrong?"

From the landlady's tone, it seemed that she was not very concerned about Zhou Sen's lost bag.

The most important thing is that in this crowded community, losing things is very common.

For the landlady, this was a common occurrence, but for Zhou Sen, it was simply too terrible.

"I still have a fishing rod in my bag. I spent more than 2,000 yuan to buy it, and I haven't used it many times! And there are many important things in it."

Zhou Sen shouted, so angry that tears were about to fall.

"Oh, if it doesn't work, just call the police. I really can't do anything about this matter~", the landlord aunt sighed.

"Auntie, do you have surveillance here? Can you help me check it?" Zhou Sen asked persistently.

"We do have surveillance cameras, but they don't seem to work very well. If that doesn't work, go ask the security booth."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Zhou Sen immediately hung up the phone and walked towards the security booth at the door.

Stimulated by his anger, Zhou Sen walked faster and faster, and Zhou Xinyao could hardly catch up with him.

"Zhou Min, why don't you go wait for me inside the house? I must find the bag," Zhou Sen said to Zhou Xinyao with tears in his eyes.

"Brother, let me help you look for it."

Zhou Xinyao smiled slightly and walked towards the door with big strides.

Zhou Sen felt extremely relieved and his liking for Xinyao increased a little more.

The two of them came to the security booth at the gate together.

In this shabby and small security booth, a gray-haired old man was listening to the radio with his eyes half closed, and he didn't notice Zhou Xinyao and Zhou Sen walking in from outside.

"Hey, sir, sir..."

Zhou Sen shouted twice before the old man reacted.

"What is it?"

The old man asked sleepily.

"I want to ask, where can I check the surveillance here?"

"Check the surveillance. What do you want to check the surveillance for?" The old man asked Zhou Sen with complicated eyes.

"The snakeskin bag I left downstairs is gone. It contained a lot of useful things. I want to check the surveillance to see who took it away."

Zhou Sen explained.

The old man sneered and replied, "Then don't look for it anymore. It must have been lost. You can't find it even if you try."

"How can you be so sure that you can't find it? Can you help me check the surveillance? What if you can find it?" Zhou Sen looked at the old man expectantly.

"To tell you the truth, the surveillance cameras are all broken because no one is willing to pay to fix them."

The old man sighed and told the truth.

"Broken? Don't you have any property management here?" Zhou Xinyao asked in confusion.

"Property management? This is a resettlement building, what property management is there? Even I, a gatekeeper, am organized spontaneously by everyone," the old man said with a smile.

Hearing what the old man said, Zhou Sen felt disappointed.

"What should I do? I still have a lot of things in this bag!"

“Humph~ I’ve never seen anyone who can find what they lost here,” the old man said with a sneer.

"Brother, why don't we call the police? Maybe we can find it back," Zhou Xinyao suggested.

The old man glanced at Zhou Xinyao and smiled meaningfully, thinking that she was a little naive to the point of being silly.

“Alas~ It’s so difficult in our neighborhood~”, the old man said, smacking his lips.

Zhou Sen felt that he could not find hope with the old man, so he went outside and called the police.

"Hello, hello, I lost a snakeskin bag in... in Furong Community, could you please help me find it?"

"Do you have anything valuable in your bag?" the police asked.

"The most valuable thing is a fishing rod, which I bought for more than two thousand yuan. Other than that, there are some clothes and other things. Oh, by the way, there is another thing that is more meaningful to me, my birth certificate is also in there."

The police officer who answered the call wrote down everything Zhou Sen said.

"We will help you find it as soon as possible. There have been two thefts in this community before you. We remind you to take good care of your valuables."

"Okay, I will be extra careful. Thank you for your help~"

Zhou Sen then hung up the phone.

"Brother, how are you?" Zhou Xinyao asked with concern.

"According to the police, there have been several thefts in this neighborhood. I guess we'll have to wait a while."

"Ah? This..."

"Humph, I told you that you won't be able to find this thing back."
