I heard old Paton continue on the phone: "Rasti, I remember I said to you, 'Rasti, you can't go this way, you have to choose a new path, the old days are completely over, that kind of behavior, that kind of violence, the police and I will not tolerate anymore.'" 'Do you remember what you said to me?'

"I don't remember!" replied Rasti with some difficulty, and for some reason, his heart was full of bitterness when he heard old Paton's words.

"You don't remember. "That's why we never have that kind of conversation again, you know, because you don't remember anything, you don't know anything, you never learn a lesson." Good night, Rasti, good night!"

Hearing that old Patton was a little excited to hang up the phone, Rasti quickly stopped him: "Don't, don't, don't hang up, wait." I'm going to ask you something. Is that true?"

"What's true?" Old Patton's mood was not very stable at this time, and it was obvious that a conversation with Rasti brought back too much of the past.

Rasti on the other end of the phone was the same, this question was also difficult for him to say, but after choking for a long time, he still asked bitterly: "Am I really not your son?"

Hearing this, old Paton did not have the anger that Rasti had imagined, but said very calmly: "I don't know! But even if you were my son, you are no longer the one." ”

Listening to the whining sound on the other end of the phone, Rasti's heart was dazed, and he didn't know when, in his tightly closed eyes, strings of tears slipped down and soaked his entire face.

After a long time, Rasti reopened his eyes and slowly hung up the phone. Hanging up the phone, Rasti felt a sense of relief.

Just when this father and son completely broke up, Liang Dong, who had just returned home, saw Terry Mulden's father at first sight.

"Look who this is, what a surprise that the sheriff will come to see us. Liang Dong hung up his coat and hat and said to old Mulden: "Dad, I hope you are here to apologize to me." ”

"Why apologize, did you help you for me, did you save your marriage for me?" said old Mulden very bluntly, in this respect, he was not at all the same as old Paton.

"Saved my marriage, my marriage is fine, is it that the more you interfere in my life, the more trouble you will cause. ”

"Hey, don't argue with your dad. Just when the anger in Liang's heart couldn't help but rise, Christine suddenly walked out of the kitchen.

Liang Dong looked back at Christine who was walking by, and his heart was inexplicably quiet, and the anger in his heart disappeared without a trace. He said to old Mulden a little helplessly: "You know what I mean, okay, Dad, what is the purpose of your coming here today?"

"Why, can't I come and see my grandchildren?" Old Mulden's momentum sank after Liang Dong's outburst just now.

"Absolutely, and they're sure they're happy to see you. After speaking, Liang Dong turned around and asked a pair of children, "Children, do you have any fun playing with grandpa tonight?"

"Watching TV/doing homework. The two children gave completely different answers, and there was even a hint of confusion on their faces.

"Nothing's over, as I guessed. Liang Dong glanced at Old Mulden angrily, then stood up and said to him: "If you don't mind, I'm going to talk to my wife, and try not to interfere this time." ”

"Are you still mad at me?" Liang Dong said softly as he walked behind Christine.

"No, I'm not angry. Christine tilted her head, looked at Liang Dong funny, and said, "I'm just disappointed and confused with you." ”

"Disappointed?" Liang Dong said with a wry smile, "That's worse, I'd rather you're still angry with me." ”

"Then you're out of luck!" Christine glanced at her husband and lowered her head a little angrily.

"Maybe I can make it up to you. Liang Dong leaned in front of Christine and whispered, "Taking advantage of your birthday today, let's go out on a date in the evening." ”

Christine looked at Liang Dong in some surprise, and said with some embarrassment: "I thought you forgot!"

"What are you kidding?" Liang Dong waved his hands a little exaggeratedly and said, "I have been preparing for tonight all day today. ”

"Really?" Christine's face showed a look of happiness, she thought that her husband had forgotten about it after they had quarreled during the day.

"yes, I got two tickets and booked a table at a good restaurant. Speaking of this, Liang Dong glanced back at old Mulden and whispered in Christine's ear, "And my dad will help us take care of the children." ”

"Are you sure, he didn't mention it?" Christine looked at Liang Dong in some surprise, she wasn't sure about this matter.

"Yes, didn't he mention it, really?" After Liang Dong finished speaking, he walked towards Old Mulden and asked in a low voice, "Hey, Dad, you know it's Christine's birthday, that's why you came to our house, right?"

"I don't know, why didn't you say it?" Old Mulden turned around in surprise and congratulated Christine, "Happy birthday!"

Christine shrugged her shoulders a little embarrassed and thanked old Mulden, "Thank you!

"Do you know what she wants most?" Liang Dong glanced at the smiling Christine and said to old Mulden, "She most hopes that you can help us take care of the children tonight, so that I can take her to dinner and watch a show!"

Old Mulden looked dazed, and without waiting for him to answer, Liang Dong said directly to Christine: "Look, he must be willing." ”

After speaking, Liang Dong said to old Mulden: "Dad, I promise that when I go home, we can discuss the case." ”

"Thank you, Dad!" Seeing that old Mulden nodded slightly, Christine finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking old Mulden, she went back to her room to change her clothes, touched up her makeup a little, and then went out to watch the show with Liang Dong.

After four hours of performances, Liang Dong, who had slept secretly, left the theater with Christine.

"I know you don't like it, huh?" Christine looked at her husband apologetically, he was so bored that he fell asleep all the time, leaning on his shoulder.

"No, it's good, it's not bad here. Liang Dong didn't want to spoil Christine's fun at this time, so he smiled and said, "But if I want to spend four hours with a bunch of drunkards, prostitutes, and bad gamblers, I might as well go to Tenth Avenue and find a bar!"

"You're really cynical, you know?" Christine gave her husband an angry look, then avoided the car and walked across the street.

Liang Dong hugged Kerstin's slender waist and said with a smile: "Don't you just like me?"

"Virtue!" Christine stood in front of the car and scolded her husband with a smile, no matter what, she still felt his heart.
