A city in Hunan Province.

He Dingtian came to this city that changed his life again after seven years, and he couldn't explain how he felt.

Seven years ago, he was a high-spirited 24-year-old man. Although he was born in a rural area, with his eloquent mouth and a job that paid fairly well, he found a gentle and lovely girlfriend in this city.

.

However, it was his girlfriend who caused a major turning point in his life.

It was an afternoon seven years ago. When He Dingtian went to pick up his girlfriend for dinner, he happened to meet her ex-boyfriend who came to pester her. He Dingtian didn't know what they said from a distance. Anyway, he only saw his girlfriend.

She was a little emotional, and her ex-boyfriend was tugging at her.

Seeing this scene, He Dingtian became angry instantly and rushed over to do it without saying a word.

Naturally, her ex-boyfriend would not just be beaten without fighting back, and the two soon started fighting.

During the scuffle, He Dingtian relied on his physical strength to knock the opponent to the ground. As a coincidence, the back of the opponent's head hit a sharp stone on the ground, and blood flowed all over the ground on the spot.

At that moment, not only He Dingtian was dumbfounded, but his girlfriend who had been beside him to break up the fight was also dumbfounded.

The final result was that the other party died, and He Dingtian was sentenced to seven years for manslaughter and had to compensate the victim's family 350,000 yuan.

The past is hard to look back on.

He Dingtian paid a heavy price for his impulsiveness. Not only was he imprisoned, but he also pushed his already poor family into an abyss. His parents sold iron and borrowed it from relatives and friends before they could barely make ends meet.

The compensation is enough, and we are still working hard to pay off the debt.

Less than three months after he went to jail, his girlfriend broke up with him.

At that moment, He Dingzhen was filled with regret and regret.

It's a pity that there is no regret in selling medicine in this world.

In a flash, seven years passed.

He Dingtian finally ended his life in prison, and then he discovered to his anguish that the price he had to pay was far more than that. The first was a job. With a criminal record, he wanted to find a job, but it was really difficult to find a job.

It’s no exaggeration to say that with a criminal record, he can’t even be a delivery boy.

The second step is to find a partner. Although He Dingtian hasn't tried it yet, you can already imagine the woman's reaction when she finds out that he has been in prison.

Even his criminal record will affect his children in the future. For example, if his children want to take the civil service examination, they will not be able to pass the political examination.

In short, his impulsive behavior back then had a huge impact.

After taking one look at this familiar yet unfamiliar city, He Dingtian sighed secretly and took the bus to the XX Department of XX Hospital. He successfully found his ex-girlfriend Zhong Lihong's aunt who was a doctor here.

Although he hadn't seen her for seven years, He Dingtian still recognized her at a glance.

At this time, his ex-girlfriend's aunt was treating patients. He Dingtian entered the office and waited silently. When she saw a patient, he said hello: "Hello, Dr. Zhang."

Perhaps it was too long and He Dingtian's image had changed a lot, so Dr. Zhang didn't recognize him for a while and thought he was a patient who came to see her.

Then he asked directly: "What's your name?"

He Dingtian knew that she was busy with work and didn't want to waste her too much time, so he revealed his identity and said: "Doctor Zhang, I am Lihong's former boyfriend He Dingtian. Do you still remember me?"

After hearing this, Dr. Zhang finally remembered who the person in front of him was, and his face couldn't help but change, "It turns out...it's you. What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

He Dingtian naturally saw the wariness in her eyes, and smiled helplessly in his heart, "Not long after I came out, I wanted to ask Lihong for help with something, but I no longer have her contact information, so I came to see Dr. Zhang.

, I hope you can give me Lihong’s phone number, thank you!”

Doctor Zhang carefully reminded: "Mr. He, Lihong is already married!"

He Dingtian smiled bitterly and said: "Doctor Zhang, don't worry. What happened back then was a mistake I made on impulse. I didn't mean to blame Lihong, and I didn't want to destroy her family. I just asked her for help."

.”

Doctor Zhang said thoughtfully: "Mr. He, Lihong is no longer in this city. What help do you want from her? Can you tell me about it?"

He Dingtian said with some embarrassment: "Doctor Zhang, I caused a big disaster seven years ago, which completely wiped out my family and caused my parents to owe a lot of debt, and I can't find it after I get out."

When I got to work, I had no choice but to ask her to borrow some money to see if I could start a small business of my own."

Doctor Zhang thought for a while and asked, "How much money do I need to borrow?"

He Dingtian replied: "Probably borrow 20,000 to 30,000 yuan!"

Dr. Zhang took over the matter directly and said: "In this way, Mr. He, you don't have to find Lihong. You can add my WeChat account and I will transfer the money to you."

He Dingtian was a little surprised when he heard this, then shook his head and said: "I don't have a mobile phone."

Doctor Zhang looked at the time and then said: "Please, Mr. He, please wait for me outside for half an hour. I'll finish seeing the remaining patients and then go and exchange cash for you."

He Dingtian said gratefully: "Okay, thank you Dr. Zhang."

"You're welcome."

The two exchanged a few polite words, and He Dingtian walked out and waited.

…

Fifty minutes later.

Doctor Zhang handed the exchanged 30,000 yuan in cash to He Dingtian and said, "Mr. He, do your business well in the future and don't be so impulsive when things happen."

He Dingtian took the money with slightly trembling hands and said solemnly: "I will work hard and pay you back as soon as I make money."

"Then I would like to congratulate you in advance, sir, on your business success!"

"Thank you, I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

After He Dingtian walked away, Dr. Zhang took out his cell phone and called his niece Zhong Lihong.

As soon as the call was connected, Dr. Zhang asked: "Lihong, do you still remember He Dingtian?"

Zhong Lihong said in a complicated tone: "Auntie, why are you mentioning him all of a sudden?"

Doctor Zhang said: "He's out!"

Zhong Lihong was silent for a moment, "Come out as soon as you come out. I have nothing to do with him for a long time!"

Doctor Zhang said: "Of course I know that you have nothing to do with him, but in the final analysis, the reason why he got into such a big disaster was because of you. Otherwise, he and that person were strangers to each other, and he would not have reached that point.

"

Zhong Lihong asked: "Auntie, is he looking for you?"

Doctor Zhang hummed and said, "Yes, he came to see me just now!"

Zhong Lihong's breathing was a little heavy, "Why did he come to you?"

Dr. Zhang said: "He came to me and asked for your phone number."

Zhong Lihong took a breath and said, "What does he want to do?"

Doctor Zhang said: "He just came out of it. Because he had been in prison, he couldn't find a job. His family had lost everything because of what happened back then, and he also owed a large amount of debt to relatives and friends.

He came to you to ask you to borrow money to start a small business, but now that you have your own family, I didn’t want him to disturb you, so I decided to lend him 30,000 yuan."

Zhong Lihong sighed and said: "Auntie, I will transfer the money to you later."

Doctor Zhang shook his head and said: "Forget it, aunt, I don't need the money. I called you just to tell you about this. As long as he doesn't bear any grudge against you, it doesn't matter if he doesn't pay you back."

Zhong Lihong said quietly: "It's true that I'm sorry for him, but he was sentenced to seven years, not seven months. I can't wait for him for seven years."

Doctor Zhang understood: "Lihong, don't blame yourself too much. You and him can only be said to be fate, and we are destined to have no fate."

"Forget it, don't mention it, auntie, I will take the two little guys to see you in a few days."

"Okay, I haven't seen these two siblings for a while."

Next, the aunt and nephew chatted for more than ten minutes before hanging up the phone.

…

After He Dingtian borrowed the money, he first went to a mobile phone store and spent several hundred yuan to buy a cheap mobile phone. Then he got a mobile phone number, then went to the train station to buy a ticket and went straight to the provincial capital of Guizhou Province.

He has thought clearly these days that if he borrows money, he will go to the provincial capital of Guangxi Province to do some small business.

The reason why he chose the provincial capital of Guizhou Province is because he studied in university here and is very familiar with this city.
