Chapter 457 Addiction Before Dawn
He hunched over, coughing, and trying to argue with his brother.
"I didn't beat Zhao Zhikuo in front of you, you ran up to me to watch!"
Zhao Zhikuo: "You still have a point?"
As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to beat him up.
Zhao Zhihan rolled out of Zhao Zhikuo's attack range, half-knelt on the ground, and patted the dust stuck to the hem of his clothes.
"Look at you, you're so angry."
He put the pipe into his waist, stood up with a smile, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I'll get out of here."
When Zhao Zhikuo saw his frivolous smile, he became so angry that his hair almost stood up.
He chased after him for two steps and kicked him hard, but Zhao Zhihan just twisted his waist and dodged it.
"Brother, you don't have to do anything, I'll get out of here right now!"
Before he could finish his words, the man rushed out the door and disappeared.
"This evil!"
Outside the door, Zhao Zhihan looked around and was about to go to the Paramount to have some fun when he saw Old Li squatting on the street corner sharing a piece of dry biscuit with his daughter.
He paused, changed direction, and walked up to Lao Li.
"Are you eating?"
When Lao Li looked up, he saw a familiar face.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, you need to go out!" Old Li hurriedly stuffed the unfinished dry biscuits into his arms and smiled honestly, "I'll take you there!"
Zhao Zhihan comes and goes every day, and Lao Li has become very familiar with him.
"Don't worry." Zhao Zhihan waved his hand, "Wait until you finish eating."
"Ah?" Old Li looked a little flustered, rubbing his hands together in confusion, "Here, I've already finished eating, I won't delay you, let's go now."
Zhao Zhihan turned around, waved his hand, got on the rickshaw without any hesitation, and slumped down on the seat as if he had no bones.
"It's still early for Miss Hongyu to go on stage to perform, so just enjoy your meal, Old Li."
As he spoke, he glanced at the skinny girl beside him and raised his hand to rub her dry and yellow hair.
"Besides, if you don't eat, are you going to let Xiaonan go hungry as well?"
Old Li hesitated, looking at his daughter who was suffering and had a big head and a small body, and his lips trembled twice.
"Eat it." He patted his daughter who was holding the cake but didn't dare to eat it, and whispered, "Eat it with confidence."

Zhao Wenyu finally calmed down his father who was about to faint from anger, and sent his parents back to the house to rest.
Only then did he walk away with Chaoge.
The Zhao family has been studying medicine for generations. The house they live in is located in an alley, and their neighbors are all merchants with some assets.
The two walked to the edge of the courtyard wall. Zhao Wenyu looked at the sky that was divided by the wall and felt inexplicably sad.
"Chao Ge, do you know? During these years of studying abroad, I have actually been very confused."
At first, I wanted to learn advanced technology, and then return to China to spread the medical skills and save more people.
"I admit that Western medicine does have its own unique features, but I cannot accept the fact that some of my classmates completely deny Chinese medicine."
Zhao Wenyu's face was filled with confusion.
"I have studied advanced medicine and now teach all my knowledge to my students without reservation, but I am still confused."
He turned his head, as if trying to seek an answer from Chaoge.
“Can everything I do now really save the people who are struggling in misery?”
Zhao Wenyu blinked slowly, "Is everything I'm doing now meaningful?"
Chaoge's smiling voice followed, "Why is it meaningless?"
The sky was dyed with the dark night, and the blue sky gradually moved into the darkness.
Zhao Wenyu's eyes flickered in the dark night.
"Since you are confused, let's start from the beginning and sort out our thoughts."
Chaoge asked, "Why did you send all kinds of books from far away overseas?"
Zhao Wenyu: "There's no reason. I just wanted you to learn to read and see the new world."
Chao Ge smiled slightly.
Zhao Wenyu not only sent back various books, but also wrote thick letters carefully, teaching the original owner all kinds of basic knowledge bit by bit.
It was because he was such a thoughtful and considerate person that when he suddenly proposed a divorce, the original owner could not accept it.
"You taught an illiterate person to not only learn to read, but also learn foreign languages, understand astronomy and geography, and even learn biology and medicine."
Meeting Zhao Wenyu's gaze, Chaoge continued speaking.
“Isn’t this considered enlightening the people?”
She smiled and said, "Enlightening the people, isn't that considered saving the country and the people?"
At this moment, Zhao Wenyu seemed to have been enlightened.
Yes, yes.
In this chaotic world where evil spirits are rampant, it is not enough for one person to stand up, but thousands and millions of people to stand up. Instead of waiting to be saved, it is better to save yourself, which will come faster!
Only by working together can we be reborn from the ashes.
Zhao Wenyu: "I understand."
I understand why those people suddenly turned to literature.
Having said that, Zhao Wenyu suddenly changed the subject.
"Chao Ge, we still want to get divorced."
He looked very determined. "The little baby's fate has been determined since birth. She has been trapped in the Zhao family and the backyard since she was young. Her only goal in life is to become a wife and a mother. This is not fair."
"You should be free. I cannot deprive you of the right to open your eyes and see the world."
Zhao Wenyu smiled and said, "As the old and the new are changing, you might as well think carefully about what you want to do and the path you want to take."
"Just think of me as being shameless enough to be your elder brother or guide?"
Looking at Zhao Wenyu, who is in his prime and full of vigor and vitality, Chaoge remembered the original owner's wish.
If achieving his ideals requires sacrifice, then just let him go and let him pursue his beliefs.
So she said, "Okay."
Zhao Wenyu didn't expect her to agree so readily. He was stunned for a moment, "Hmm?"
"I agree," Chao Ge said, "Let's get a divorce."
She smiled suddenly, "If you get divorced, your mother will really disown you."
Zhao Wenyu burst out laughing, but there was some bitterness in his eyes.
He raised his hand to rub his eyes and said with a smile, "Haha, then I have to go to my mother and ask for forgiveness."
There were bursts of lascivious music coming from outside the wall, mixed with the laughter of men and women talking and playing.
It's time for nighttime fun again.
Zhao Wenyu glanced outside the wall for a moment and said, "It's getting late. You should go back and rest early."
Chaoge nodded, "What about you? Are you going to pick someone up?"
Zhao Wenyu felt a headache when he thought of Zhao Zhihan hanging out outside.
Since he came back, he found that his uncle had become a different person, smoking, drinking, and seeking pleasure. He was always running around to pick up people or preparing to pick up people.
"He was so drunk that he wasn't sober at all. If no one cared, I don't know if he would die of drunkenness in some corner."
After complaining a few words, Zhao Wenyu pressed his temple again, and after thinking for a while, he simply moved the ladder from the corner, set it up in a stable place, and prepared to climb over the wall directly, saving the effort of going around the yard and going through the gate.
