"Do you want to call the logistics department in the North Shore District and ask if the former economic investigation team leader Zhang Xiaofang's service gun is still there? And if you still don't believe me, you can continue to ask if Zhang Xiaofen had any guns and bullets with her when she left."

Xu Mingyang slowly backed away, and finally bumped into the wall.

His whole body collapsed and he squatted on the ground with red eyes.

Qin Shang saw this and raised his eyebrows with a sneer.

"Sell your mother miserably!"

Xu Mingyang pursed his lips, his dark face showing grievance and confusion.

Perhaps it was because of the happiness that he had finally obtained, but the fleeting thought suddenly collapsed. Countless emotions burst out from his heart. He was not angry with Qin Shang, but with himself.

Qin Shang sighed. Old Xu was still too young. He squatted down and patted Xu Mingyang on the shoulder.

"I just called your mother."

"Your mother seems to have fallen recently, but it's not serious. It's just that it's the summer season, and she may not have paid attention to keeping warm, so her old cold legs relapsed. The old lady has been lying in bed these two days. Summer is coming soon. When you have time, go back and install an air conditioner in your old house."

"Don't waste your money. Wanyan Xiaowen is not a good match for you."

When talking about his family, Xu Mingyang's last layer of psychological defense completely collapsed.

"Lao Qin, but I really like Wanyan Xiaowen..."

She hugged Qin Shang and burst into tears, but Old Qin didn't say anything.

He patted Xu Mingyang on the back as if coaxing his son.

Old Xu comes from a poor family, has a low-key personality and has always felt inferior.

My background is not much different from his, but our personalities are very different. Perhaps this is due to the education I received from my parents.

Most children who have received a difficult upbringing have low self-esteem.

For example, when I was a child, every time my parents bought chicken, duck, or fish, the first thing they did after cooking was to give the children the largest piece of fish, while they would gnaw on the fish tail and suck on the fish bones.

When a child wants to ask, "Mom, why don't you eat meat?", the parents will respond lightly but meaningfully, "It's for your growth. Eat quickly and eat more. We just need to eat some fish tails. We work so hard every day just for you."

In fact, the logic is correct, and the starting point of the effort is also good.

But over time, the child will develop an inferiority complex.

Especially seeing other students' lives, with fine clothes and delicious food, meat every day, and air conditioning, while my home is an old bungalow, and when I'm not at home, my parents don't even want to turn on the fan...

"So, I am the burden of this family?"

Guilt-based education will make a person gradually mediocre and no longer proactive. When facing many things, the first thing he thinks of is the negative side, not the positive side.

Over time, a person's character is formed.

He is sentimental, he is humble and cautious, he longs for love, and he is careful.

He doesn't know how to please others, nor can he learn to curry favor with the powerful, but he has unknowingly and inexplicably learned to accept everything that comes his way.

Honesty is the basic color of character and also one's protective color.

He doesn't know what it's like to live a flexible and pleasing life.

He was taught to be down-to-earth and to give wholeheartedly. This kind of person is most likely to become a bootlicker in a relationship, and is also most likely to lick his wounds silently after being hurt, and cannot even learn to blame or complain!

"Xu Mingyang is not unfilial. On the contrary, he loves his parents very much. However, this kind of upbringing has doomed him to never be able to communicate with his parents. When I called Xu Mingyang's parents, I mentioned why I didn't let Xu Mingyang install an air conditioner."

"Auntie said with relief that Xu Mingyang wanted to install it for them last year, but the old couple refused. They thought it was fine. But Xu Mingyang called the construction team to their doorstep and asked the old couple to scold him. In the end, Xu Mingyang blushed and said, 'Do you want it or not?' and they left unhappily."

From Xu's mother, Qin Shang heard the abnormal love that the older generation had for their children.

In fact, Xu Mingyang's mother was not really blaming him, she just thought Xu Mingyang was spending money recklessly.

Their income is not very high, and they didn’t ask for it actively. They just hope that their son can reduce some of the burden.

It costs several thousand dollars to install an air conditioner. Why not leave the money for Xu Mingyang to do something with?

But in Xu Mingyang's eyes, his parents' scolding seemed like a waste of good intentions.

I obviously feel sorry for them. It's nothing more than installing an air conditioner in an old house in the countryside. Why should I be scolded?

Besides, I am not a child anymore, but in front of a group of strangers, my parents still scold me without caring about their image.

To be honest, Xu Mingyang wished he could find a hole to crawl into at that time.

Parents of that generation had no idea that their children would also need to save face when they grow up.

Relying on the authority of parents, they almost completely disregard the reputation of their children and always feel that the saying 'You will be a child to me forever' is a truth. But think about it from another perspective. When you were 20 years old, did you ever long for the recognition and respect of your parents who were over 50 years old?

After all, I have grown up, I am already an adult...

The answer is yes!

Unfortunately, this desire fades with the passage of time, and becomes less important after it cannot be obtained.

As they become parents themselves, they pass on this contempt and oppression in the name of love to the next generation.

Qin Shang didn't want to use their brotherhood to threaten Xu Mingyang and force him to hand over Wanyan Xiaowen, nor did he want to persuade him earnestly.

It would be better to just pull out Xu Mingyang’s mother.

The moment he heard these words, Xu Mingyang's defense was broken.

He is still that filial child, but he is blinded by love.

……

At 3:30 in the afternoon, Qin Shang finally waited for Master Yin to return to the office. Yin Shisan had a look of fatigue on his face, and Don Juan was with him. Seeing Qin Shang and Xu Mingyang waiting outside the room, Yin Shisan was slightly stunned.

Suddenly he realized that maybe Qin Shang had something to talk to him about, so he waved his hand to signal Don Juan to leave first.

Don Juan gave a teasing and ambiguous look, his gaze swaying back and forth between Master Yin and Qin Shang, and the reflection in his pupils almost played out the scene of two men kissing.

A rotten person looks at a gay person!

"Don't be so stupid about it..."

Qin Shang glared at her unhappily.

Then he stuffed a pack of unpacked Zhonghua cigarettes into Don Juan's arms.

"Shi Hao asked me to give it to you. He told you to smoke it first, and he would have more when you were done."

???

Don Juan let out an "ah" and wondered why Shi Hao sent him a cigarette for no reason.

But he didn't stay any longer. He picked up a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes and went downstairs.

Just happened to run into Shi Hao head-on, Shi Hao was anxious and nervous;

"Don Juan, you're back? You're back just in time. Come on, help me call Qin Shang. This bastard stole a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from me this afternoon. Fuck him, this bastard won't do anything."

"Hey, why is this cigarette here with you?"

Shi Hao didn't even finish his words. He looked up and noticed the cigarette in Don Juan's arms. He was stunned.

Don Juan also speaks the truth;

"Qin Shang gave it to me. He said you bought it for me and told me to smoke it first, and if it's not enough, I'll ask you for it."

"I was wondering why you bought me cigarettes."

When these words came out, Shi Hao was struck by lightning and froze for a moment.

After holding it in for a long while, I couldn't utter a word.

Should I tell Don Juan the truth? I didn't buy these cigarettes for you, I bought them for myself.

As a result, when I went to buy cigarettes, I happened to run into that bastard Qin Shang. Just because I didn't bring ten dollars in cash, Qin Shang extorted the cigarettes from me with just a few words?
