“Wow, the power of makeup is real!”
“She’s a completely different person after changing clothes! She looks fierce!”
“Can someone get the lipstick shade, please?”
“It’s hard to believe this figure belongs to the mother of a nine-year-old!”
The saying “a man depends on his clothes and saddle” is perfectly applied here.
The woman, transformed by her new outfit, looked stunning.
A hint of pride flickered across [Life is only a few autumns]’s face.
“Go now, and be careful,” he urged. “We need to save our son, no matter the cost.”
[Life is only a few autumns] knew what mattered most. He immediately pushed the woman to head for the logistics park.
“No need,” Chen Yu said calmly. “The police are already on their way. The authorities have arrived at the logistics area.”
“What about our son?” [Life is only a few autumns] asked anxiously.
“He’s safe, of course,” Chen Yu replied with a smile.
Relief washed over the man’s face, a relaxed smile appearing.
He had considered calling the police, but he was afraid of provoking Zhao Laoliu to hurt his son while surrounded by officers.
He had worked under Zhao Laoliu for five years.
This old bastard was a troublemaker who wouldn’t hesitate to break the law for profit.
He sold low-quality seafood and cheated on weights.
These were the reasons why [Life is only a few autumns] decided to leave and start his own business.
The woman trembled. [Life is only a few autumns] spoke up. “Don’t worry, if our son is safe, that old goat, Zhao Laoliu, must be finished. He’s probably being hauled off in a police car for questioning, right, Dr. Chen?”
He looked at the screen. “Am I right? Has the culprit been arrested?”
“Oh, right. You mentioned earlier that the person who kidnapped our son was near me. It must be the subordinate who tipped me off earlier, right? I’ve suspected him for a while.”
“Once, another guy reported seeing him chatting happily with Zhao Laoliu at the logistics area.”
“I remember when a batch of imported seafood was stolen and destroyed by Zhao Laoliu’s men. He must have tipped them off about the arrival time.”
[Life is only a few autumns] mumbled.
There were two reasons why he held back.
First, he hoped Zhao Laoliu would stop messing with him.
[Life is only a few autumns] didn’t hold him accountable because he didn’t want to create a scene.
Doing business is about harmony, after all.
These petty tricks would make it impossible to operate a business if they were kept up.
Secondly, he wasn’t sure if his subordinate was the snitch, so he needed time to observe him secretly.
“Not quite.” Chen Yu’s answer surprised him.
“Zhao Laoliu was indeed arrested, but not for the kidnapping. It was because of illegal business practices. He was caught using illegal methods to disrupt the business of his competitors, which ultimately led to his arrest.”
“Your subordinate did sell you out, but he had nothing to do with the kidnapping.”
“It’s not him. Could it be…” The man stared at his wife in disbelief.
“No, it wasn’t me!” The middle-aged woman shook her head frantically.
The idea of a mother kidnapping her own child was unthinkable.
“Don’t be so quick to deny it,” Chen Yu said with a smirk. “There’s still time for explanations after I have my say.”
“Dear patient,” he continued, “Hu Zi, the son you keep mentioning, isn’t your biological son, is he?”
This revelation stunned the chat.
[Life is only a few autumns] had called Hu Zi his “son” impatiently, and anyone could see the genuine concern in his voice.
Yet, there was a twist—they weren’t biologically related.
“Dr. Chen, you’re right,” he sighed.
“Hu Zi isn’t my biological son. I got married to my wife about four years ago.”
“Even though Hu Zi isn’t blood-related, from the day he came into our home, I treated him like my own. He wouldn’t go without anything other children had; in fact, he’d have more and better. I just…”
“There’s no need to explain further, dear patient,” Chen Yu interrupted. “It’s clear you care for him deeply. You’ve provided for him in every way, both materially and emotionally.”
“Anything the child wanted, he got it. You transformed the storage room into a snack haven, with more treats than a convenience store. You heard he liked game consoles, so you bought him every single one on the market.”
“Your sole wish was for him to see you as his real father, to erase any distance between you.”
“After a year of this effort, the child finally accepted you as his biological father. However, a new problem arose.”
“Under your indulgence, six-year-old Hu Zi developed a terrible personality. Initially, you dismissed it as a boyish trait, believing he’d grow out of it.”
“But gradually, you realized this wasn’t mere mischievousness; he was bullying others.”
“That’s true,” [Life is only a few autumns] admitted with a nod. “Being a first-time parent, especially without a father figure myself, I was clueless about raising and educating a child. Showering him with everything seemed like love.”
“The results were unexpected. I gave Hu Zi everything other children didn’t have, but the worse his behavior became.”
“Desperate to correct his temper, I took a friend’s advice and tried to scare him straight, hoping to teach the little rascal a lesson.”
“It worked temporarily, but the effect only lasted a few days. Soon after, his bad temper returned.”
He shot his wife a glare. Hu Zi wasn’t born a bad apple. The real problem was his mother. Though dignified and proper in public, she was like Snow White’s stepmother to him.
The ‘public’ he meant was before him.
[Life is only a few autumns] had become one of the top seafood kings in the area. In this small city, he was considered highly wealthy.
Every time [Life is only a few autumns]’s wife picked Hu Zi up from school, it became a runway show.
She’d flaunt her wealth, driving a luxury car and clad in designer brands, mocking the other students’ parents for their perceived poverty.
Under her influence, Hu Zi absorbed 100% of her arrogant attitude.
They say parents are a child’s first teachers.
With a mother like her, it’s no wonder Hu Zi couldn’t learn good behavior..
