Left on his own?

Mother Sun’s expression darkened. What a scoundrel! “Then, do you know where he went? How about his address? Do you have a way to contact him? I need to contact him urgently. I... I’m sick with a very serious illness. I’m going to die soon. If he doesn’t contact me, I might not even get to meet him for the last time before I die!”

From Mother Sun’s tone that was full of vigor, it was hard for Madam Fang to believe that she was about to die from an illness. “I’m sorry. When Commander Sun left, he didn’t leave any contact details. I don’t know where Commander Sun is either. I’m sorry. Someone else is calling me. Goodbye.”

“Why did Sun Guohong leave the military at that time?” Qiao Nan lifted up her head to look at Zhai Sheng. “You probably couldn’t bear to let him leave either, right? You put so much effort into cultivating him into a company commander. It would have been a huge loss if he were just to leave like that.”

“Exactly!” Zhai Sheng sighed. He had indeed put in a lot of effort in grooming Sun Guohong into a company commander. “Sun Guohong had a chat with me, and I agreed with Sun Guohong. As a soldier, he represented the military. With his mom around, his mom would continuously make unreasonable requests. To protect the military, Sun Guohong had no grounds to reject his mom. Otherwise, Mother Sun might even slander the military by saying that Chinese soldiers don’t care for the elderly and are even willing to let their younger brothers die, while the soldiers themselves lead good lives. It’s just that Sun Guohong was no longer willing to unreservedly send his salary back home anymore. He felt too aggrieved to do so.”

Now that Sun Guohong’s mentality had changed, he was afraid that he would no longer be able to remain calm and collected while completing his mission and protecting the country even if he were to stay on in the military. After much hesitation, Sun Guohong finally made the decision to leave the military, giving up his career as a soldier that he was so passionate about.

“I’m sure you know what line of work Sun Guohong is in now. Only after he stabilized his career did he continue sending money back to the Sun family. But what was different from the past was that he was now only willing to send his mother’s share back home. In the countryside, the Sun family could grow their own rice and vegetables. Since they wouldn’t spend much, Sun Guohong did not give much money either.”

But the difference was that Sun Guohong was earning much more than he did in the military now that he was a private detective with his own company. He earned more but gave his family less. Thankfully, Mother Sun and the Sun family did not know about this. Otherwise, Mother Sun would definitely fly into a rage.

“But Mother Sun had really fallen ill and had even been hospitalized. Mother Sun had not yet found a way to contact Sun Guohong, but Sun Guohong had already paid off her hospital bills in advance!” That was Sun Guohong’s limit.

Qiao Nan frowned. “What if Mother Sun used the money meant for her hospital bills on Sun Guoming? What if she was hospitalized again in the next few days? What would happen then?” Ding Jiayi had done this to her in the past.

“Nothing much.” Zhai Sheng could laugh with great ease. Obviously, this situation had not baffled Sun Guohong. “Sun Guohong had already forked out money for Mother Sun’s hospitalization. If Mother Sun were to get hospitalized again, Sun Guohong would wash his hands off the matter. Sun Guohong had already helped out. How could he let Mother Sun ask for limitless access to money just because she fell sick just this once?”

It had to be said that without the burden of a soldier’s status, Sun Guohong no longer restrained himself in getting back at Mother Sun. He could even swear that he had done nothing wrong and thus had a clear conscience.

Mother Sun was really ill, and the family did not have much money. Once Sun Guohong hardened his attitude, Mother Sun had no other choice unless she was willing to endure the torturous pain until she died. So Mother Sun had no choice but to return that money so as to treat her illness.

Afterward, Mother Sun tried to extract money from Sun Guohong once again. The last time, Mother Sun had indeed been sick. But this time, Mother Sun was only faking it. She insisted on being hospitalized for a mere cold just because it would cost more to stay in the hospital.

She was thinking of immediately withdrawing the money once Sun Guohong transferred it to her. It was just a cold after all. She could simply treat it with any over-the-counter medications that would cost less than a hundred yuan. action

But who would have known that the very day that Mother Sun was warded in the hospital, someone passed a hundred yuan note to Mother Sun, saying that someone had asked her to pass it on to her?

At first, Mother Sun was confused and wondered who could have given her this hundred yuan. But until the second day of her hospitalization, she had not yet heard any news of Sun Guohong transferring money for her hospital bills over to her. It was then that Mother Sun suddenly realized that this hundred yuan was from Sun Guohong. It was meant for her to seek treatment for her cold.

Right then and there, Mother Sun broke out in tears. It was only a hundred yuan. It would not even be enough to pay for her hospital bills, let alone buy extra medications for her cold. In the end, Sun Guoming had to fork out a part of his salary to pay for Mother Sun’s hospital bills before Mother Sun was able to leave the hospital.

After this happened twice, Mother Sun finally learned her lesson and did not dare to risk her own health to ask Sun Guohong for any more money. She knew that Sun Guohong would not be deceived. Even though he had not appeared in front of her for a few years, he must be watching from afar and know about her situation like the back of his hand.

So there was no way that she could ever successfully deceive Sun Guohong, and neither could she cheat Sun Guohong of his money. If Mother Sun were to continue with her antics, what she would sacrifice was not Sun Guohong’s money but Sun Guoming’s.

“Smart.” Qiao Nan gave him a thumbs-up. It was only because she had been reincarnated that she had thought of ways to deal with Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. As a native, Sun Guohong was much smarter than her by not being calculative about the past. But when Sun Guohong finally came to a realization, the Sun family was no longer able to take advantage of Sun Guohong. “What about that child? Since his marriage to the secretary’s daughter was called off and that child was Sun Guoming’s, could Mother Sun bear to give up her eldest grandchild?”

Zhai Sheng patted Qiao Nan’s back and stroked it. “It can be said that Mother Sun’s wish came true. You could tell from just one look that Sun Guohong’s fiancée was a very scheming person. If she had not coaxed Mother Sun at that time, there was no way she could have had the chance to become Sun Guohong’s fiancée.”

“She lived in the village and thus knew that Sun Guohong was the most promising person in the Sun family, but the one who was most favored was Sun Guoming. Mother Sun had taken all of Sun Guohong’s hard-earned money and used it all on Sun Guoming. She had even constructed a house for Sun Guoming, and that house was under Sun Guoming’s name. She refused to let her husband’s hard-earned money go to supporting someone else’s husband. That was why she plotted such a scheme to get into a relationship with Sun Guoming. She clearly had other plans in mind.”
