After Cao Jianjun finished speaking, there was no sound from Huang Xi's end.
The night breeze blew in through the balcony, and a sobbing sound came from the other end of the phone.
Huang Xi took a breath, suppressing her tears.
"Need not."
Huang Xi continued, feigning composure, "I don't blame you for any of this..."
"Give me the address first."
Cao Jianjun was too lazy to argue with her: "Whatever the outcome, we'll talk about it when we meet."
"I don't want to see you."
"why?"
"No reason!"
"..."
Arguing with a woman is illogical.
Cao Jianjun felt speechless for a moment, then readjusted his thought process and continued, "If you don't tell me, I'll investigate through the Beijiang police's household registration information."
"are you crazy?"
Huang Xi got anxious: "Does it have to be made known to everyone?"
"Who told you not to tell me?"
"Say what, say what, say..."
“Give me the address.”
"What are you doing here?"
Huang Xi said helplessly, "You come, stay for two days, and then leave? In the end, what will you do? You'll still be all alone?"
Those words really hurt.
This also reveals Huang Xi's concerns, something Cao Jianjun hadn't anticipated.
The anger in his mind gradually dissipated: "I won't."
"What do you mean, 'won't what?' Cao Jianjun, you're a policeman. If our affair really gets out, what will happen to you? Do you know that?"
Huang Xi became somewhat agitated: "You'll be fired."
"Although I have never met your wife, I have inquired about her."
"If she finds out you cheated on her and had a child, your family will be ruined, do you understand?"
"In the end, you lost your job and got divorced, all because of me..."
"Do you think this is what I want to see?"
"I hate you, but I don't want to destroy you, and I certainly don't want to drag so many innocent people down with me."

Cao Jianjun felt a small surge of emotion upon hearing this, but even more so, a deep sense of shame.
Huang Xi's decision was not impulsive; she simply carried all her grievances on her own shoulders.
All of this was done to protect himself and everyone around him.
"Let's talk about it when we meet."
Cao Jianjun held the cold phone: "There's no harm in meeting, right?"
"meeting."
Huang Xi said angrily, "It takes me a long time to calm down after just one meeting."
Why are you so stubborn?
Cao Jianjun was furious: "Do you think I'll just stay for two days and leave this time?"
"You're pregnant with my child now. If you don't make changes, will I contact you on my own initiative?"
Snapped!
Before Cao Jianjun could finish speaking, Huang Xi hung up the phone.
Cao Jianjun was left looking bewildered and confused, staring at the glaring phone screen.
When I dialed again, the other end's phone was switched off.
Made!
Cao Jianjun simply closed his laptop, grabbed his phone, and went back to his room to sleep.
I was angry, but I could understand.
Huang Xi's identity is something that can't be brought to light, and coupled with her slightly artistic personality and her current pregnancy, she is most likely in a state of depression all the time.
Being able to answer the phone is probably the biggest change she has made.
As for anything else, Cao Jianjun didn't want to force it any further.
There's nothing you can do about this except let nature take its course.
The clock on the wall was pointing to midnight.
Cao Jianjun, who hadn't slept well for three days, was indeed exhausted. He lay in bed, feeling both distressed and drowsy.
273
I slept soundly until dawn.
When I woke up again, I picked up my phone and checked the time; it was already eight in the morning.
Just as I put down my phone, I inadvertently glanced at a text message.
Room 302, Building 6, Tianyu Garden, Jiangpu District, Beijiang.
See this.
Cao Jianjun's stubble-covered face broke into a childlike smile, and he sat up abruptly from the bed.
He rushed into the bathroom and shaved while defecating.
After wiping my bottom, I quickly washed my face and brushed my teeth, changed into casual clothes, grabbed my car keys, and rushed downstairs.
I drove to a baby store and bought a lot of nutritional supplements.
Because his wife Zhou Hui was pregnant, he gained experience and knew that he needed to buy things like cod liver oil and folic acid, which are necessary for the fetus.
In short, I bought everything I could and needed to buy.
The car was packed full, and without even having breakfast, we set off on the highway from Jingang to Beijiang.
I exited the Tianjin Port toll station at 9:30 a.m., and the journey was over 800 kilometers.
It was already 5 p.m. when we arrived at the Beijiang toll station.
Following the navigation, we entered the city from the toll station and drove for another hour and a half before finally seeing the Tianyu Garden that Huang Xi had mentioned.
The dilapidated residential building is at least thirty years old.
The walls are mottled with gray and white spots due to years of weathering.
The tallest residential building is only six or seven stories high (aefc), and there are no security measures at the entrance; the gate to the community is just for show.
The people coming and going were all elderly men and women, some in their sixties and seventies, some using canes, others pushing wheelchairs.
The window guardrails on every building were covered in rust.
More than half of the greenery downstairs is planted with vegetables, which really gives it a lively atmosphere.
Cao Jianjun drove around and asked several elderly men before finally finding Building No. 6.
As soon as I got off the bus, I saw a familiar figure.
Huang Xizheng, carrying rice in one hand and cooking oil in the other, leaned against the wall and struggled to climb the stairs.
We would stop and rest after climbing each floor.
Seeing this, even the most hard-hearted Cao Jianjun was moved. He forgot about the nutritional supplements in the car, locked the door, and rushed into the stairwell.
He caught up with Huang Xi in a few quick steps and took the oil and rice from her hand.
Good guy.
The cooking oil weighs 20 jin (10 kg), and the two bags of rice weigh over 30 jin (15 kg).
The two met and locked eyes. Huang Xi's lips twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything.
"Come on, let me help you..."
Cao Jianjun placed the rice and oil in one hand, and with the other hand, he prepared to grab Huang Xi under the armpit.
"No need, it's only been three months, it's not that delicate."
Huang Xi held a bunch of keys in one hand and picked one out from them with a clatter.
Step by step, we reached the third floor and stopped at the door on the left.
