Upstairs, Chu Xiangrou leaned against the door and hugged her daughter, crying for a long time.
Her eyes were red and swollen.
Her tears seemed to flow endlessly.
Her lips were drained of blood from her biting.
He let go of his daughter and slowly stood up while holding the door.
His gaze fell on the door. He hesitated for a moment and glanced at the peephole on the door.
It was empty outside-Lin Yi was nowhere to be seen.
She only felt that her heart had become empty.
Lin Yi left again.
Anyone would not be able to stand what he said.
Lin Yi's appearance was like an interlude in her life.
However, this interlude was a little fierce.
It stirred up a lot of emotions in him.
After Lin Yi left, it was quiet.
He returned to his peaceful life.
just
Why did she feel so empty in her heart
It was as if something had suddenly been pulled out from his heart.
No matter how unwilling or how much she resisted, only she knew that the missing piece in her heart could not be made up for.
Chu Xiangrou took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in her heart. She calmed herself down and looked down at Chu Tao, who was looking at her in confusion.
He rubbed his daughter's soft hair." You must be hungry. I'll cook for you now."”
Chu Tao nodded heavily when she saw that her mother had returned to her former state.
When Chu Xiangrou walked into the kitchen, Chu Tao immediately ran to the balcony.
She leaned against the glass and looked down.
However, no matter how she looked, she could not find her father.
She didn't know that she couldn't see Lin Yi from her angle.
Lin Yi was downstairs.
He had already gone to the hardware store to buy a bunch of tools and returned.
He was half-squatting on the ground, his tools piled up by his feet.
He removed the lock on the unit door bit by bit.
The lock was old and heavy.
Only a few parts were damaged.
After all, it had been so many years, and the property management had not changed.
Many parts had rusted.
Lin Yi removed the rusted parts.
Then, he installed the newly bought parts.
Every movement was very slow and meticulous.
He was afraid that if he didn't install a single component, his efforts would be in vain.
The old man didn't leave either, waiting for Lin Yi to come back.
She watched as he took the tools and slowly opened the door lock.
She couldn't help but sigh." Sigh, if only my child had your heart.”
Lin Yi smiled, not saying anything.
This was because very few people touched the unit's lock.
Slowly, more and more people gathered.
Even the residents of other buildings had gathered.
This group of old people loved to watch the show.
When he saw a young man repairing the door lock, he thought that the property manager had finally found his conscience.
"Have you finally fixed the lock?"
"Why don't you start from scratch?"
"When will it be built in our building?”
The old people chattered.
At this moment, Sir System immediately corrected him," He's not from the property management. It's his wife and child who live in this building and feel that it's not safe, so they fixed this door. We've lived here for decades, and the property management is getting more and more out of hand. How could they have a conscience and fix the locks for us old men?"”
The surrounding elders suddenly understood.
"So you're worried about your wife and children.”
"Repair it yourself. It's not easy to find such a good man.”
"Your wife and child are really lucky.”
Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
If she was really lucky, Chu Xiangrou and her child wouldn't be living in this place.
It was because of the five years he had disappeared that Chu Xiangrou had been living alone with her child in a very unsafe neighborhood for so many years.
Lin Yi fiddled with the lock for a long time.
Finally, it was fixed.
The locks from the past had not changed. After all, if the entire lock was changed, all the residents in the building would have to change their keys.
Lin Yi closed the door with a bang.
If he pulled the door handle again, he wouldn't be able to open it.
Lin Yi dusted his hands and picked up the tools.
"Done?"
"Yo, you've really done a good job."
"Really, I can't even pull it off."
"It's much safer now."
The elders said with a smile.
Some reached out to pull the door.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it.
The residents of this building had lived here for so many years, and the door downstairs had never been closed for many years.
She was still not used to seeing the door suddenly close.
However, no matter what, the safety was much higher.
"Thank you, young man."
"We can be considered to have benefited from your wife and child.”
Lin Yi smiled and didn't reply.
He waved at the uncles and aunties." I'll be leaving first."”
"Take care, young man."
"This lock is really good."
The elders stared at the door lock and praised it.
At this moment, they suddenly remembered.
"Aiya! I didn't bring the key downstairs!"
"I didn't bring it either! After all, I'm used to it!"
"Ring the doorbell and ask my wife to open the door for me.”
"By the way, that young man said that his wife and child live upstairs? Is there a woman with a child in our building?”
Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.
A group of old people loved to join in the fun and gossip.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman suddenly slapped her thigh." Little Chu from the sixth floor! There's only one young mother with a child in our building.”
"What? Little Chu? That was impossible, right? Didn't her husband die many years ago?”
"She probably wants to pursue Little Chu. Little Chu is so good-looking. My nephew has taken a fancy to her the first time he saw her. He doesn't mind Little Chu taking care of the child. Little Chu may be thin and weak, but he's stubborn in terms of relationships. He's determined not to find a second one!”
"Then this man…"
"Damn! Who knows? He probably chased after Little Chu and even fixed our door.”
"Young people these days are really attentive!”
