A love affair that is not favored by the world

When I was 23 years old, I was in a jewelry store in Shanghai I worked part-time and saved some money through hard work to buy Your next favorite phone.

That day, I was happily playing with my new mobile phone. My boss walked by with a group of friends. A middle-aged man accidentally bumped into my hand. The mobile phone flew out and hit the marble floor with a "whoosh", and the entire screen All broken. I couldn't help shouting in distress: "My new mobile phone!"

The other party quickly apologized to me: "I'm sorry, I'll pay it to you!" He immediately asked his assistant to buy the same mobile phone as a gift to me. After this incident, I found out that he was the boss’s good friend Liu An.

I am worried that my reckless gaffe will offend the boss’s valued customers and I will be fired from the company. After a week of anxiety, Liu An called my boss and said: "Today, I made another big deal. I am hosting a banquet for my friends tonight. Please invite the salesperson whose phone I broke to come with me."

Banquet On the table, everyone drank and drank, chatting freely. I learned that Liu An was from Shanghai, engaged in the jade business, and was a well-known boss in Shanghai. During the dinner, he didn't persuade me to drink or make fun of me. He behaved politely, which made me feel that he was different from other bosses. After

, Liu An would always invite me every time he entertained friends. I thought at the time that he liked crowds of people and didn’t think much of it. Until one day, he sent me a WeChat message: "Let's have dinner at our old place tonight. Come over when you have time." When I got to the restaurant, I saw him sitting there alone, and I realized that he wanted to pursue me.

To be honest, I was a little flattered by his pursuit. I am a rural girl, good-looking but not beautiful, and my only asset is youth; he is mature and elegant, with tens of millions of assets. Although he is middle-aged and divorced twice, he can still attract many young girls.

I don't know if he is serious about me or if he just wants to...have fun. Some men just enjoy the process of hunting, but I don't want to be a prey. Facing this boss's distinguished guest, I neither dared to offend him nor accept him. I could only carefully keep a distance from him and never accept expensive gifts.

When Liu An confessed his love to me, he said that he had seen many young and beautiful girls, but I was the only one who was so real and unpretentious. In fact, he is not a romantic man. The so-called pursuit is just sending greetings every morning and evening. If I don't reply within two hours, he will be worried and will definitely call to find out.

One night in the twelfth lunar month, I caught a cold and had a fever. I was in a daze and did not reply to his message. At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, Liu An finally couldn't help but call me. He set off immediately when he found out that I was ill. He rushed downstairs to my dormitory at 1am, helped me get into the car and went to the hospital for emergency treatment. After infused , he sent me back to the dormitory and covered me with a quilt before leaving.

The next day, Liu An went to the market early in the morning to buy ingredients and make a pot of mountain chicken soup. At 8 o'clock in the morning, he came to the dormitory with a pot of steaming chicken soup and helped me get up to eat. I have been taking care of my family since I was a child, and I even gave up going to college for my sisters. I have never been cared for so meticulously. I was moved to tears and finally accepted his pursuit and became his girlfriend.

After getting along day and night, I found that Liu An has many advantages. He is a kind man and never speaks out against his two ex-wives; he bears all the monthly expenses for his ex-wife and children without caring about them.

Once, when we were on a date, he suddenly stood up and said, "I promised to buy bread for my children. If I don't buy it, the store will close." Many details of life made me feel that he was very responsible, down-to-earth and reliable.

After my parents heard about it, they strongly opposed our relationship.Firstly, they didn't believe that Liu An was sincere to me, and secondly, they were worried that the disparity between our family backgrounds would lead to rumors. I simply invited my aunt from my hometown to come and live in Shanghai. After being together for half a year, my aunt discovered that Liu An was a good family man, good at washing, cooking, and cooking, with a gentle temper and no boss airs. After returning to her hometown, she praised Liu An fiercely, finally dispelling the doubts of her family members.

On the eve of the Spring Festival in 2012, Liu An and I returned to our hometown and formally proposed marriage to my parents. My father was silent for a long time and said to me: "The path you choose will have to be completed even if you kneel down!"

At that moment, I cried, and so did Liu An.

Before leaving, he held my parents' hands tightly and swore: "Mom, Dad, I will take good care of Minmin and let her live a happy life. Please believe me!"

I will never leave and let him make a comeback.

On the eve of his wedding, Liu An told me that doing jade business not only requires him to be based in Xinjiang, but also travels around the country for many years, spending less time with his wife and children and more time away from him, so his previous two marriages failed. This time, he wanted to make a big deal, stop it after making enough money, and live by my side from now on, being a good husband. I support his decision and have great visions for the future.

Later, Liu An spent 70 million yuan of his savings and partnered with several friends to buy a large number of high-quality jade materials. I never expected that this batch of jade wool materials would be subcontracted during transportation! He immediately called the police after discovering the clues, but the police were unable to solve the case.

On February 16, 2012, Liu An sent me a breakup WeChat message: "Min, you have to take good care of yourself, I don't have this blessing." After receiving the message, I rushed to find him anxiously.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the man I had always admired and admired looked lost, as if he had aged 10 years. The failure to deliver the goods after receiving the buyer's deposit left him entangled in lawsuits. In order to pay huge liquidated damages, he had to sell all the properties.

Almost overnight, he was bankrupt.

Liu An lay paralyzed on the sofa without eating or drinking, just crying silently. I quickly held his hand tightly, holding back my tears and comforted him: "If you run out of money, you can make more money, and I will support you in the future!"

Unexpectedly, after hearing this sentence, he burst into tears: "I used to look forward to marrying you. You just hope that I will take care of you in the future so that you don’t have to work so hard anymore! Now that it’s all over, what’s the point of living for me?” When I saw him expressing thoughts of committing suicide, I became even more worried and tried to help him relieve his depression. The mood; being inseparable every day, not daring to let him be alone at home.

During the Spring Festival of 2013, I mustered up the courage to say to him: "Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register for marriage together!"

Liu An disagreed: "I have nothing but a lot of age now, so what can I do to marry you!"

I He said categorically: "In the beginning, I had nothing, but you insisted on marrying me; now you have nothing, why can't I marry you? What I love has always been you, not your money. And I know , you can’t live without me!”

html On December 14, Liu An and I registered our marriage. He looked at me affectionately and said, "There is only one destination in my life. I am so glad that I finally found it!" After getting married, I accompanied him to rent a house in the suburbs of Shanghai. In order to make money to support his family, Liu An went to the friends he had helped many times and wanted to start a business together again. However, the other party not only refused but also made sarcastic remarks, which made him depressed.

html In March 33, I was unexpectedly pregnant. On March 30, Liu An handed me all the 400,000 yuan he had left after his bankruptcy. I intuitively felt that he was explaining his funeral arrangements.

On December 6, 2013, I gave birth to my son by cesarean section. With the birth of the child, Liu An's depressed and despairing mood gradually improved.I said to him: "Marriage is when you have to bear everything about another person, including your family, your past, your good, your bad... your life is my life."

I do what I say. I arrived and transferred the 400,000 yuan he gave me to his two sons with his ex-wife, without leaving any money for myself. Liu An saw it in his eyes and was moved in his heart. This time, he finally cheered up and decided to live strong for his wife and children.

After confinement, I left my son in the care of my mother. I went to the fruit wholesale market every day to buy all kinds of fresh fruits and transported them to street stalls to sell. From then on, I was always busy in the cold wind and under the scorching sun. Although I work from dawn to dusk every day to earn money to support my family, it is actually nothing to me who is used to living a hard life.

One day, a friend of Liu An’s from Xinjiang came to the rental house with a large piece of jade wool. Liu An's eyes shone when he saw this piece of moist and transparent jade material. This was a look he had never seen since his bankruptcy. But because there was no start-up capital, he could only let the other party leave with the jade.

I believed in my husband’s vision and tried every means to borrow money from relatives and friends, and finally bought the piece of jade. Not long after, Liu An resold it and made a profit of 680,000 yuan! Looking at his energetic look after the successful transaction, I know that he has the belief to live! I ran straight to the park near my rental house and cried bitterly, releasing the emotions I had suppressed for a long time.

After that, we returned to our old business and ran the jade business together. After 7 years of hard work, we now own our own manor and hotel. The two of us bought a small villa by the Huangpu River and moved in from a rental house. The most important thing is that we gave birth to another daughter, a son and a daughter.

At work, we are the chairman and CEO; in life, we are a loving couple that envies others. Every time after school, Liu An would pick up his children and cook for me and my two children.

Every time at this time, I will think of a sentence: A thousand tribulations will end, but a light will shine for a long time.
