Restaurant.

Private rooms.

"Master Zhou, your medical skills..."

"Of course, my medical skills are different, pay attention to a fate, there is fate, and all diseases can be cured naturally..." Zhou Qiang bragged about how powerful he was.

Xu Hongdou listened to it for a long time and felt that he understood.

If you have money, Zhou Qiang will see a doctor.

No money, Zhou Qiang doesn't care about you.

"Master Zhou, am I destined for you?" Xu Hongdou thought about it and asked. She had an impulse in her heart to expose Zhou Qiang, a big liar.

"Of course it's fate, Miss Xu, your face..., and I..., of course the two of us have a fate, and the fate is not shallow, compared with those guests before, we have a deep fate, and the cause and effect are entangled..." Zhou Qiang said nonsense again. He felt tongue-twisting, let alone the people who listened.

"Then, Master Zhou, I have an upset stomach, how much do I need to pay for you to see a doctor?" Xu Hongdou asked directly. She wanted to see what Zhou Qiang, a big liar, would say.

"How much? Haha, it seems that Miss Xu has misunderstood me a lot." Zhou Qiang shook his head again,

"Miss Xu, you and I are destined to be people, and I don't charge any fees for you to see a doctor.

The people before me, I charged because I didn't have a relationship with them.

No, but they have a relationship with me with their financial resources,

The road to heaven is endless,

The avenue is fifty, the sky is forty-nine, and people escape one of them,

I can't be a man of all kinds,

Therefore, a fee is charged for the number of days..."

Zhou Qiang flickered for a while, completely flickering Xu Hongdou lame.

He held Xu Hongdou's little hand again and talked and laughed with Xu Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou unknowingly, he was taken advantage of a lot.

...

Xu Hongdou Xili Lake Tu went home.

She didn't react until she got home.

Zhou Qiang didn't treat her with stomach problems, but only took advantage of her.

Her little hands were bald to the touch.

"This damn Master Zhou, fake master, see if I don't expose you tomorrow!" Xu Hongdou was furious. She decided not to give Zhou Qiang a childcare anymore.

She washed her hands and felt that she was touched by Zhou Qiang.

Not much.

Xu Hongdou's best friend Chen Nanxing took a taxi.

Xu Hongdou went to pick her up outside the community.

"Red beans..." hugged the two as soon as they met.

Xu Hongdou also gently patted Chen Nanxing's back.

"Oops, hey..." Chen Nanxing's back hurt a little.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know, I've had back pain lately." Chen Nanxing seems to be sick, and she may not be aware of it, so she will go to the hospital with Xu Hongdou tomorrow. Xu Hongdou did gastroscopy, and Chen Nanxing did color ultrasound.

"Red Bean, you'll have a gastroscopy tomorrow, can you eat?"

"Yes, no food or water after ten o'clock, but I'm not hungry at all, I had too much dinner before." Xu Hongdou and Zhou Qiang were together, and they ate all the dishes she liked, so they ate a little too much.

"You've already eaten, so I won't eat it anymore, just drink some milk."

"Don't, whatever you want to eat, I'll buy it for you."

"No need, if you don't eat, I'm not bored eating alone, so forget it."

...

Xu Hongdou's house.

Both changed into their home clothes.

"Hey, have you lost weight?" Xu Hongdou asked. She found that Chen Nanxing had lost a lot of weight.

"Is it obvious?" Chen Nanxing also knew that she had lost weight.

"Are you losing weight?"

"No, I was on a business trip last week. Last week, I went on a four-day business trip, inspected two hotels, including the surrounding environment of the hotels, as well as entertainment facilities, and came back to write a report of more than 20,000 words, and people were almost tired.

As for Li Jing in our class, he also commented to me in the circle of friends, "I'm so envious, what about publicly-funded travel."

Migrant workers work hard, and Chen Nanxing is no exception.

The weight of life, the weight of work, overwhelms everyone.

While chatting with Xu Hongdou, she helped Xu Hongdou clean up the refrigerator.

A lot of the food in Xu Hongdou's refrigerator has passed its expiration date.

Chen Nanxing helped clean up.

Xu Hongdou's life is a little small.

Excuse busy?

Being busy shouldn't be an excuse.

There are more busy people.

People who live in a ruined world should be lazy for more reasons.

Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing are both migrant workers in Beiping.

Or it's called North Drift.

They work hard, but they can't afford to buy a house.

They can only rent a house.

And the rent is not cheap.

Although they make a lot of money, they also spend a lot of money.

They are busy with work.

Time is like a running cheetah, swishing and gone.

After graduating, they worked for several years.

I can't look for a boyfriend.

Life is a mess, and the body is tired and sick.

They are in their thirties and belong to older unmarried women.

They are a little confused about the future.

They want to have a house, a car, a home, and children, but the reality is that they are hard to come by.

Why are these people so tired?

The reason is simple, it is not said here, and it cannot be said.

The two of them are so tired of living, what about the men?

The man who drifts north, it's harder!

They have more responsibilities to take on.

They also hope to have a house, a car, a home, a wife and children, but reality has given them a few big mouths.

They can't afford to get married, they can't afford to have children, they can't do anything.

They are not Zhou Qiang, who can fool for a day and earn more than 20 million.

They are just ordinary social animals.

"Red Bean, my back is a little itchy, you scratch it for me."

"Okay, here?"

"Yes, Hongdou, recently there is a new colleague in our unit, named Sun Zhixin, I think it's my dish. He has a good family condition and is handsome.

But they are six years younger than me, and I'm afraid that if they are really together, it will also be a rabbit's tail, and it will not grow.

After all, I'm not too young to delay.

Red Bean, what about you, do you have a boyfriend?"

"Nope." Xu Hongdou suddenly thought of Zhou Qiang's magic stick. She hurriedly shook her head.

She fell asleep in the lake.

She has a calendar on her bedside table.

It shows May 10.

There is also a famous quote on the calendar:

Happiness is the ultimate goal of all human actions, and everything we do is a means to achieve happiness. (Aristotle)

In fact, most of life's misfortunes are man-made.

...

Hospital.

It's overcrowded.

I don't know when it started, the hospital's business is getting better and better.

Pharmacies on the street, one next to the other.

The newly opened big hospital makes a lot of money every day.

In the face of economic downturn, it is amazing that the hospital is thriving.

"Chen Nanxing, First Consultation Room."

"Okay." Chen Nanxing went to do color ultrasound.

"Xu Hongdou, the second consultation room."

"Okay." Xu Hongdou went to have a gastroscopy.

The results of the examination came back quickly.

Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing showed the results to the doctor.

"The family is here, aren't they?" The doctor's words scared the two beauties.

"The size of your pancreatic head looks a little problematic, this

Like, you guys go and hang up a surgery, you have to do it... Check, don't waste time." The doctor saw something, and he needed to confirm it with a machine.

Xu Hongdou's stomach is fine.

Chen Nanxing's body has a problem.

They nervously go to the examination and wait for the results.

"The results are out, come in."

"Doctor, how's it going?" Chen Nanxing asked cautiously.

"Are the family here?"

…

A bolt from the blue!

Chen Nanxing has advanced cancer.

Xu Hongdou felt a thunderbolt from the sky.

She knew what Chen Nanxing's illness meant.

She felt that the world was spinning, and she accidentally dropped the bag in her hand to the ground.

A small cloth bag fell out.

"Red Bean, are you alright?" Chen Nanxing's face turned pale. It was as if she had been hit with a hammer. She barely supported her body and helped Xu Hongdou pick up things.

"Nannan, I'll just come, you sit down and rest." Xu Hongdou squatted down, just about to pick up the small cloth bag.

"Tips?" A picture appeared in Xu Hongdou's mind.

"Miss Xu, please take a seat, I have a gift for you.

Miss Xu, I can open this bag when you encounter a thunderbolt on a sunny day." Zhou Qiang's magic stick appeared.

"Tips? A bolt from the blue!" Xu Hongdou picked up the cloth bag with some trembling tremors and hurriedly opened it.

There was only a small note inside, with a few large letters on the front:

"Survive in death, a glimmer of life."

There is only one word on the back:

"Fate."

"Woo..." Xu Hongdou suddenly cried.

"Red Bean, don't cry, it's okay, it's going to be okay." Chen Nanxing hurriedly persuaded. She was a person who needed comfort, but she persuaded Xu Hongdou.

"Don't cry, call your family and go through the hospital." The doctor advised.

"Doctor, is there any other way to treat it? Can I have surgery?" Xu Hongdou asked.

"At the moment, it can only be treated conservatively...", the doctor was helpless.

Xu Hongdou wiped her tears, "Nannan, you come with me, come with me, I'll take you to Master Zhou..."

They left the hospital.

They were supposed to be hospitalized under the doctor's arrangement, but they left.
