The couple had a muddled and anxious night, and when they went to work the next day, they both seemed a bit out of sorts.
For the first time, Lu Ming's wife left for work without tidying up their love nest, even forgetting to remind Lu Ming to be careful on the road.
"Hey! Li Hui! What's the matter with you, you look like you're out of it." On the way, she ran into a colleague, and it wasn't until then that Lu Ming's wife, Li Hui, snapped back to reality and exchanged a few embarrassed pleasantries before the two of them walked to the factory together.
They were old acquaintances, and as they chatted, they brought up the matter of Lu Ming's promotion; the colleague immediately exclaimed with surprise, "That's a good thing! Why do you look like you've lost your soul?"
"I think it's a good thing too, but the thought of living apart from Lu Ming just dampens my spirits," responded Li Hui as she walked along, pushing her bicycle.
