After the porridge was cooked, Qin Huairu fed Huaihua and ate the steamed buns. She watched TV, then looked at the meat, steamed buns and porridge on the coffee table. She felt like she was in a dream. She was still in the old city in the morning, but now she was in Hong Kong Island and had her own house. She couldn't believe this was reality!

Qin Huairu felt very satisfied when she saw Xiaodang eating with his mouth full of oil.

"I will definitely take Bang Geng in if I have the chance." Qin Huairu decided secretly in her heart, "No matter what, he is my biological son. Raising him up is also a responsibility I have fulfilled for him."

Qin Huairu knew that Banggeng was already disabled and there might not be much hope for him in this life.

Xiaodang and Qin Huairu had a very tiring day. After dinner, they took a bath and went to bed. With the bathroom, it was very convenient to take a bath.

Yi Zhonghai returned home at 4:30 in the afternoon and was puzzled to see that the door was locked. Qin Huairu should be at home. After entering the house, he felt that something was wrong in the room. After a closer look, he found that Qin Huairu's clothes were missing.

"Where did she go? If she went back to her parents' home, it's impossible for her to take so many clothes with her." Yi Zhonghai felt panicked and immediately thought of the scene when Tan Jinhua escaped.

"No way, did she run away too?" Yi Zhonghai suddenly became anxious.

Yi Zhonghai hurriedly checked the place where the cash was kept, and sure enough, there was no money left, not to mention the change and silver dollars.

Yi Zhonghai was extremely anxious and immediately climbed onto the table to check the large amount of cash hidden on the beam. When he looked up, his eyes were dark. Fortunately, he quickly grabbed the beam, otherwise he would have fallen off the table on his back.

Yi Zhonghai waited for a few minutes until his vision returned to normal. He jumped off the table tremblingly and sat down on the ground weakly.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai whispered to himself: "Qin Huairu, I don't owe you anything. Why did you leave like this? Why did you really leave?"

At this time, Liu Haizhong approached and stood by the door frame, staring at Yi Zhonghai who was squatting on the ground in a daze. He asked curiously, "Old Yi, what's wrong with you?"

"They're gone, all gone. Qin Huairu has also left. Old Liu, I was so good to them, why are they leaving one by one?" Yi Zhonghai stood up from the ground and moved with difficulty to the chair and sat down.

"Gone? Then why don't you hurry up and look for him!" Liu Haizhong said with his eyes wide open.

"Looking for it? Where to look for it?" Yi Zhonghai said helplessly: "She took all my cash away. Fortunately, I saved some in the bank, otherwise my life would be in trouble..."

In fact, Yi Zhonghai didn't leave any money in the bank, and now he only had a dozen yuan on him. But he still had a small amount of wealth hidden, which was a secret that Tan Jinhua and Qin Huairu didn't know.

"Where can we find her? Where can she go as a woman with two children? She must have used the letter of introduction from the factory. Go to the gatehouse and ask, and you will know everything clearly." Liu Haizhong continued: "I think she has returned to her parents' home to live."

"Yes, under such circumstances, she shouldn't quit her job." Yi Zhonghai frowned, "But I treated her so well, why did she run away..."

"Old Yi, you don't understand. Women like young and handsome guys." Liu Haizhong said, "Although Qin Huairu has three children, she is still considered a woman."

"If she had been seduced by a more handsome man, she would have run away with her belongings."

"If she is really taken away by another man, it will be difficult for you to find her."

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a long time, and murmured: "I haven't seen her getting close to anyone!"

"Tsk tsk, how could you know about this?" Liu Haizhong shook his head and sighed: "Why don't you ask the people who are usually at home and see how she left?"

"It should be in the morning. There weren't many people coming and going in the yard at that time." Yi Zhonghai looked worried.

"Ask Jia Zhang, she must be at home. I don't know when she got up in the morning." Liu Haizhong suggested: "I'll ask her for you and bring some wine and food home to accompany you to relieve your worries. It's really a terrible thing!"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai in trouble, Liu Haizhong was in a good mood. He couldn't be the only one suffering from bad luck. Thinking in this way, the problems he encountered were nothing.

After Liu Haizhong left, Yi Zhonghai pondered for a while and decided to go to Jia Zhang's house. As soon as he arrived at her door, he happened to meet Jia Zhang coming back with a bag of dried lotus leaves.

"Yi Zhonghai, what are you doing here?" Jia Zhang asked with her fierce eyes, "Do you want to drive me back to the countryside? This house is mine now."

"Who wants to drive you back to the countryside? This has nothing to do with me." Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said, "I want to ask you something. Have you seen Qin Huairu?"

"Qin Huairu? Oh, she took her two children on a long-distance bus this morning, and a man helped her carry her luggage." Jia Zhang blurted out, and then reacted, "Wait, where is she going...ah!"

"She ran away with that man. That must be it! She must have left us and ran away!" Jia Zhang suddenly understood and felt excited and thrilled.

Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale, but he still tried his best to control his anger, "Tell me the details... Wait, why do you look like that?"

"Why should I tell you? If I had known earlier, I would have ignored you if you didn't give me a hundred yuan." Jia Zhang said angrily, "Go away, I won't talk to you anymore."

Yi Zhonghai took out a five-yuan bill from his pocket and said, "Tell me the details and I'll give you five yuan! Tell me now!"

"One hundred yuan!" Jia Zhang's eyes lit up when she looked at the five yuan.

"Ten yuan! Add more and I'll leave." Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and took out another ten-yuan bill, while preparing to take back the five-yuan bill.

"Fifteen dollars!" Jia Zhang stared at the two bills and thought, you have already taken them out, how can you take them back?

"Okay, go ahead." Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath and suppressed his dissatisfaction with Jia Zhangshi. "Give me the money first." Jia Zhangshi rolled her eyes.

In desperation, Yi Zhonghai could only give Jia Zhangshi money first. Jia Zhangshi put the money in her pocket and then told her what she saw in the morning.

"This is not right. How could a long-distance bus drive directly to the gate of the courtyard?" Yi Zhonghai asked with a confused look on his face.

"It's true. If you don't believe it, go ask Old Wang next door. He saw it with his own eyes." Jia Zhang said, covering the pocket where she kept the money.

"Okay, I understand." Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and turned away. He had believed what Jia Zhang said, otherwise she would not have mentioned Lao Wang.

Yi Zhonghai returned home with an angry look on his face. When he came back in the evening, he specially bought a roast chicken. He had planned to nourish his body with Qin Huairu, hoping to get pregnant and have a baby soon. But now all this has become empty talk.

"Damn, if Qin Huairu is really pregnant with my child...is this possible?" Yi Zhonghai became anxious.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai searched around the house, hoping to find some clues. Finally, under the cupboard, he accidentally found a medicine box. Obviously, this thing fell here from somewhere. Holding the medicine box, Yi Zhonghai walked out of the kitchen.

"This is...the birth control pill!"

After reading the information on the medicine box, Yi Zhonghai suddenly realized that Qin Huairu had been taking birth control pills. At this moment, a thunderclap seemed to explode in his mind.

"She doesn't care about me at all. She only accompanies me for my money." Yi Zhonghai speculated secretly: "So, naturally, she doesn't want to give birth to offspring for me."

He became more and more convinced that Qin Huairu had abandoned the workers and eloped with a man with his savings, which meant that it became extremely difficult to track Qin Huairu's whereabouts.

At this moment, Liu Haizhong walked in with Erguotou in his hand and a plate of fried eggs. "Old Yi, don't think too much, come, let's have a few drinks." He put the items in his hand on the table, unpacked them, and prepared to drink.

"Oh, I was planning to buy some good supplements for her... who would have thought..." Yi Zhonghai responded with a wry smile.

"Old Yi, you made a mistake from the beginning." Liu Haizhong's tone became serious and rational, "Have you ever thought about it? Qin Huairu is only around 30 years old, and you are over 50 years old. There is a generation gap between you. You are both ordinary workers. How can she be willing to live a stable life with you?"

"Indeed... I thought we knew each other well enough..." Yi Zhonghai sighed helplessly: "I didn't expect that I would end up damaging my own reputation with such a result."

The two who used to compete for the top spot are now on good terms with each other, at least on the surface, more like drinking buddies who are happy to share jokes.

"Yeah, you have to be more careful in the future. Don't mess up when you see beautiful women." Liu Haizhong's tone was a bit sarcastic and complacent, "After this, I guess you won't have much wealth left."

"Honestly, find a widow who is over 30 years old. Not only can she help you give birth to a baby, but she can also take good care of the family."

Facing all this, Yi Zhonghai was very dissatisfied. He thought that even if he pursued her again, he would never lower his standards and had to find a beautiful one. This time he must try to get a chance to go to ** next time. To him, it was a capitalist world where he could live the life he wanted as long as he had enough money.

The two finished a bottle of Erguotou, and Liu Haizhong left slightly drunk. After closing the door, Yi Zhonghai quietly walked under a large square table and carefully pried open a floor tile. In a hidden small pottery jar, there were ten gold bars and some cash.

"Humph, do you think that's all I have?" Yi Zhonghai sneered, "I'll be heading to ** soon."

He made a plan: send two packs of cigarettes the next day, ask Li Huaide to transfer him to the car factory, and then try to get a place in ** so that he can escape from here smoothly.

That morning, Ding Weidong went to the Public Security Bureau and met with Political Commissar Zhao to discuss Yi Zhonghai's case. After learning that everything was going smoothly, he worked hard in the factory all day. When he returned home in the evening, Fan Dalei and He Yushui were already waiting at the door.

"You two are here, come in and cook." Ding Weidong said with a smile, "Let's eat here tonight, Dalei, let's have a couple of drinks together today."
