Chapter 1839: Chapter 1839: Extra Story I
Qiu Shaoyang had a dream where he lived happily with Zhao Jianing, completely different from the trajectory of this life.
In the dream, there was no ex-wife, Yan Jiaxin. He and Zhao Jianing were each other’s first marriage, growing up together as childhood sweethearts.
Oh, no, back then it wasn’t Zhao Jianing, but Luo Jianing. Their wedding was grand, and later they even had a lovely daughter named Qiu Danwei, who was particularly adorable.
They lived a happy life as a family of three, with him successful in his career and Luo Jianing content in her job. They were a family everyone envied, and he was lost in the dream, unwilling to wake up.
In the dream, there was no Luo Qiao, only the entire Luo Family.
Mother-in-law Ning Xueling hadn’t divorced father-in-law Luo Haotian, but their relationship was always poor. The mother-in-law was quite domineering, and the father-in-law was very silent. Now thinking back, they must have long ago been of different minds.
In the dream, the eldest and second brothers-in-law never recovered from their illness, spending all days sulking at home without going out to meet people.
It seemed the Luo’s Elderly Couple weren’t as long-lived as they are now. After they died, Luo Xuyan and Luo Xuyuan were brought back to the Mechanical Factory Residential Compound, but Ning Xueling despised them, often getting angry at them.
Second brother Luo Xuyuan was gone early on, and there was no phase of marrying and having children like now.
Eldest brother Luo Xuyan was always silly, with many kids in the compound calling him the "big fool," but he smiled at everyone he met. Fortunately, he was carefree and lived to a great age.
Later, it was third brother Luo Siyan and fourth brother Luo Siyuan who took over caring for him from Luo Haotian, but because of this responsibility, third brother Luo Siyan retired early from the army and became a policeman.
The fourth brother stayed at the water company, leading a listless life, not as triumphant as he is now. Now everything has changed; even if they’re the same people, none had the outcome like in the dream.
Especially himself, in the dream, he owned a large company, had achieved significant success, surrounded by luxury cars, mansions, and beautiful women, with his wife Luo Jianing being gentle and lovely.
Just as he was immersed in the dream, someone shouted, "8425 wake up, it’s time to get up for exercise."
He felt someone push him, waking him from the dream, confusedly staring at the white ceiling, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
Then someone pushed him again, "What are you daydreaming about? If you don’t get up, you’ll be late and get punished again."
The whistle for assembly echoed in the hallway outside, only then did he fully wake up.
He was in prison now, having previously been beaten and crippled over gambling debts. After recovering, those people came looking for trouble again, and in a fit of rage, he seriously injured one, now serving a sentence.
Thinking about the people in the dream, he remembered Luo Qiao; right, there was no recognition of Luo Qiao in the dream, she didn’t exist at all, what was that about?
Without her in the dream, he and Luo Jianing lived happily, but in reality, with her, he and Jianing lived in discord, even a mess.
He didn’t want to think about it anymore but was uncontrollably thinking, wondering if without Luo Qiao in the current world, he and Jianing might live the life from the dream.
The scenes in the dream felt like he’d experienced them, making him so longing he couldn’t extricate himself.
Someone shouted angrily at the door, "8425, what are you dreaming about, hurry up and get downstairs for assembly, or I’ll make you regret it. Move it."
Looking at the door, it was their prison guard, "Yes, coming right away."
He wiped his face with his hand, the dream felt so real. Looking at his current situation, he shook his head, bitterly smiling, quickly tidied himself and ran out, but he was still a step too late and got punished.
