Instead, he waited until all the residents in the courtyard had fallen asleep before he quietly opened the door and went to the utility room.

Qin Huairu heard footsteps at the door, guessed who was coming, and opened the door immediately.

Seeing Su Mu, he threw himself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"You don't know how scared I was this afternoon. I really thought I would die at the hands of Jia Dongxu."

"It's okay. Now everything is over. How do you and Jia Dongxu resolve the issue?"

Su Mu patted Qin Huairu's back, took her to sit on the bed, and then asked her about what would happen after going to the security station.

“We were taken to the police station and interrogated in different rooms.

I told the security guard everything about Jia Dongxu, and also expressed my desire for a divorce.

Because I was almost strangled to death by Jia Dongxu, the security guard stood on my side.

But Jia Dongxu doesn't want to divorce, but the security guard will help me put a call to the street office.

The staff of the street office will handle this matter and help me get a divorce."

Hearing this, Su Mu nodded, which meant that everything they did was not in vain.

"When you and Jia Dongxu get divorced, I will help you find a job in Sijiu City.

You will be able to stay in the city in the future, and maybe even become a city dweller."

Qin Huairu's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked straight at Su Mu.

"is this real?"

"Of course it's true. When have I ever told a lie?"

"So when can we be together?"

Su Mu didn't know how to answer Qin Huairu's question.

Even if Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu are divorced now, they were once married.

And everyone in the entire courtyard, including people on the street, knew about it.

At this time, if I were with Qin Huairu, people would say that I was picking up things that others didn't want.

Since he is now working in the street office, he should pay more attention to these rumors.

Apart from this, Su Mu had never planned to marry Qin Huairu.

Although Qin Huairu looks good, she is not the type I like.

Su Mu didn't say anything, so Qin Huairu understood what he meant and didn't ask any more questions.

In fact, she thinks her life now is pretty good.

By then I will be able to get a job in downtown, stay in the city and have a free house to live in.

I can continue to be with Su Mu without worrying about being discovered by others.

Even if you don't get married it's not bad, it's already better than most people's life.

If she hadn't met Su Mu and Jia Dongxu together, her life might have been worse than it is now.

Qin Huairu finally figured it out when she thought of this. She and Su Mu turned off the lights and started making love again.

The next morning, Yi Zhonghai couldn't wait to go to the public security office with the letters of understanding written by Su Mu and Xu Damao.

"Comrade security officer, I am He Yuzhu's family member. I brought the letters of apology from Su Mu and Xu Damao."

Hearing this, the security guard stood up and took the letter of apology from Yi Zhonghai.

I read it from beginning to end and confirmed that it was a letter of understanding, and it also had the signatures of Su Mu and Xu Damao.

They nodded towards Yi Zhonghai, indicating that they accepted the letter of understanding.

"Even with the letter of apology, He Yuzhu still has to stay in the police station for four or five days."

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Logically speaking, since the letter of apology has been sent, the person should be able to be released.

"Why is that? Sumu and Xu Damao have already forgiven him, why does he still have to stay in the police station?"

"The nature of his crime is extremely serious, and he must be detained in the police station for a few days."

Yi Zhonghai wanted to say something, but when he saw the security guard's serious face, he knew that nothing he said would make sense.

He nodded, left the police station, and returned to the steel mill to work.

Today, Sumu also went to work at the purchasing department of the street office.

There are only three people in the purchasing department. They are now sitting together eating melon seeds and chatting when they have nothing to do.

Su Mu filled a bag with melon seeds from his home and brought it over to share with each of his colleagues.

"Where did you buy these melon seeds? They smell so good. The melon seeds I bought outside aren't as delicious."

Another colleague also nodded repeatedly, his eyes falling on Su Mu.

"I bought these melon seeds from the department store. If you want, I can buy some for you."

"how much is it?"

Everything sold in the department store is not cheap, and these melon seeds may not be something they can afford.

Even if you can afford it, you may not be willing to eat it, so you still have to ask the price first.

"I think it's fifty cents a pound."

The two people who heard this took a deep breath, because pork was only one dollar per pound.

These melon seeds are almost as expensive as pork, so I silently withdrew my hand.

"Forget it, these melon seeds are too expensive. Buying two kilograms of melon seeds will buy you one kilogram of meat.

This is not something our family can afford.”

Because Su Mu has rent, he doesn't need to work and can earn more than 100 yuan a month.

In addition, he is with Qin Huairu every day, and the system will give him money.

Now working in the street office, he can get an extra salary, so Sumu is not short of money at all.

He thought the melon seeds were delicious, so he bought them, not caring about the price of fifty cents per pound.

You don’t eat melon seeds every day. After all, eating too many will cause a sore throat, and you won’t spend much on them in a month.

There is nothing to buy in this era, so I can only satisfy my own mouth.

"Sumu, come to the office."

Hearing the voice, Su Mu and the other two looked up at the same time and saw their purchasing section chief, Section Chief Meng, standing there.

Su Mu nodded, then said a few words to his colleagues and went to Section Chief Meng's office.

"Chief, what do you want to see me about?"

"Let's sit down and talk."

Su Mu pulled the chair next to him and sat opposite Section Chief Meng.

"You've been in our purchasing department for a while now. Are you used to it? How do you feel about working here?"

As Section Chief Meng spoke, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Sumu.

Su Mu waved his hand to indicate that he didn't smoke, and then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them on the table.

"Chief, I don't smoke. When I have nothing to do, I like to eat some melon seeds. These melon seeds are pretty good. Try them."

"My colleagues in the department and the street office have been very caring towards me."
