Chapter 2: Another 18 Years

Time always flies fast.

In a blink of an eye, 18 years have passed.

Things were not as simple as Zhang Junhua imagined. The child was born smoothly, but Luo Jiayi’s mother suffered a heart attack due to her daughter’s elopement and passed away early. After hearing such bad news, Luo Jiayi cried bitterly, but she didn’t dare to go home to face her father. She almost wanted to commit suicide several times to apologize, but fortunately she was found and rescued by Zhang Junhua.

The life of ordinary people is not a novel story, but Luo Jiayi felt that her life seemed to be written into the story by God, which was so dramatic...

Zhang Junhua was originally a single-parent family, and his father was addicted to alcohol and never cared about him after his business went bankrupt, so Zhang Junhua and Luo Jiayi left their hometown and settled in a faraway place. Over the past 18 years, Zhang Junhua and Luo Jiayi have worked hard with their own hands to create value and raise their child Zhang Ziqiu. Only they themselves know the hardships.

Fortunately, hard work always pays off. After 18 years, the family has become more and more decent, and living conditions are getting better and better. Zhang Junhua is obsessed with racing and said that he wants to live a free life on the racing track like Han Han. At first, Luo Jiayi just laughed at him, saying that he was unrealistic and fantasized, but she didn’t expect that Zhang Junhua was really talented in racing. He soon became a professional driver, participated in various professional competitions across the country, and occasionally participated in underground car clubs, with remarkable results and earned a lot of money.

Luo Jiayi asked Zhang Junhua to give up this dangerous career more than once and settle down to make a living in a stable income with low risk, but Zhang Junhua smiled and said, “Do you think I will be like Paul Walker? Don’t worry, I will protect myself for you and our children.”

For such a husband, Luo Jiayi couldn’t tell whether she was worried or admired.

When Zhang Ziqiu was 18 years old, Luo Jiayi quit her job and focused on supervising her son’s studies and taking care of his daily life at home. What made Jiayi happy was that her help brought her son a great success in the high school entrance examination and he was admitted to one of the best high schools in the city.

Now, Zhang Ziqiu is already in the first year of high school and looks like a handsome guy. Whenever she was alone at home, Luo Jiayi would always look through the photos of their family of three traveling, her heart full of happiness and sweetness. She thought that her life was finally complete, and all the hardships had been experienced before. After that, she should watch her son graduate from college, find a good job and a good wife, and then have a good baby. She would have the third generation before she was 40 years old...

That is, would others notice anything? Luo Jiayi was looking in the mirror at the beautiful girl in the mirror, and she couldn’t tell whether she was happy or sad. 36 years old is not considered young for a woman, but she still maintains herself so well, like an intern who has just graduated from college ... The neighbors are sensible. Although they have always doubted the couple’s marriage age, no one has ever asked about this matter, so over the years, the neighborhood relationship has been very harmonious.

“Mom, I’m back.” A mature male voice sounded, and Zhang Ziqiu took off his shoes and walked into the living room.

Luo Jiayi came back to her senses and looked at the clock. Ah, it was already 6 o’clock. It seemed that she had been in a daze for a long time...
