"Mom!"

In the morning, David packed his bags and prepared to go to school. He took a few steps cautiously. He was afraid that the sound he made would disturb Gloria from taking a rest. However, when he saw the man lying on the sofa in the living room, David rolled his eyes.

With a sudden flip, he immediately roared loudly.

"Huh? What's wrong David? What happened?" On the sofa, the man covered his mouth with his hands, yawned and stretched himself up. The blanket covering his body fell to the ground, and he was exposed.

His naked upper body showed no traces of any prosthetics or implants on his body. He looked like an extremely ordinary young handsome guy.

But in a hellish place like Night City, the most worthless thing is your face. If you want a good-looking face, don’t you just have to change it? With his appearance and fragile native body without prosthetics, I’m afraid he will become a

Dolls are all afraid of being played with by others. Although sex dolls are a regular job in Night City, it is not easy to do. The most damn thing Night City has is perversion.

"Lin Wen, you're still asking me what's wrong? Haven't I already told you? You are not allowed to come to my house again, not to my house again!" David stepped forward and pointed at Lin

Wen's nose said word by word.

Lin Wen suddenly reached out and grabbed David's wrist. With just a slight push of his arm, David was pinned down on the sofa by Lin Wen.

"You brat, you're so angry with me after we haven't seen each other for a few days? Have you really reached your rebellious stage?" Lin Wen said cursingly, putting his arm around David's shoulders.

You damn brat, I grew up watching you!

"Get the hell out of here, let me go." David tried to break free, but failed. In the end, he could only sit next to Lin Wen with his arms folded in frustration.

"Have Gloria told you?"

"What did you say? That you already want to live here? Or that you really want to be my stepfather?" David cursed.

"It's not like being your stepfather..." Lin Wen smiled teasingly, looking at David's face that was about to get angry, he immediately changed his words and said:

"Okay, David, look, this hellish place is full of poor children who have been given birth to and have no one to raise them. They were abandoned by their parents and grew up in orphanages. If they are not careful, they will die, and some of them will be caught by unscrupulous businessmen.

Went to film the torture and killing of Mewtwo.

David, you are lucky. No matter how hard Gloria worked, she never thought of giving up on you. She worked so hard to raise you by herself. Now that I am helping her, I can help Gloria share the burden.

Isn’t it pressure?”

"Isn't this a good thing?" Lin Wen said to David with a smile.

This world is rotten. Mothers like Gloria are definitely in the minority. There are many middle- and upper-class families in Night City who have loving children and healthy families, but the poor people in Night City... ha.

Lin Wen was not just talking about catching young children specifically to shoot customized Mewtwo. He had seen it with his own eyes and was extremely angry about it.

After listening to Lin Wen's words, David rolled his eyes and replied: "If you can give me money, that's not impossible, but you are a bastard, you are a dirty vampire, you can only suck

Her blood, she has worked hard enough."

David looked at Lin Wen and said seriously: "So if you are still a man, go find yourself a job, even if it is not decent, instead of continuing to lie in your small clinic

He only sucks the blood of his own woman."

David gritted his teeth and said: "If I were you, if she hadn't been stopping me, then, I think I would have made a name for myself outside now."

Lin Wen was stunned after hearing David's words, and looked up at the old-fashioned fan, which was spinning creakingly.

It's kind of funny. This is an era when chip technology for your mother's exoskeleton implants is booming, but in this damn place, they still use an old-fashioned hanging electric fan...

There is a serious technological gap...

Wait, this doesn’t seem to be funny. After all, it’s 2076. Aren’t you still smoking traditional cigarettes?

This is really unreal!

Thinking about it, Lin Wen touched his head and took his hand off David's shoulder. Lin Wen touched the table in front of him and took out a cheap cigarette from the flat cigarette case. After lighting it, Lin Wen

Wen took a deep breath.

"Ahem!" David coughed after inhaling the smell of cigarette smoke and looked at Lin Wen displeased.

"Can't you listen to what I said to you?" Lin Wen was smoking a cigarette, and the smoke filled the air, blocking his face. His face was calm, and he looked at David quietly.

Gloria customized a path for David, which was rigid but safe.

But Lin Wen knew that in David's bones he yearned for the excitement of life. As he grew older, the blood in his body was boiling and his bones were rattling. David began to burn himself and became restless.

This era has always given birth to such guys, and they are unable to turn back.

"Don't look at me like that again... I just, I just think it's too hard for her to study and study. How long do you think I have to study?"

David suddenly panicked, but when he thought that he had grown up, David raised his neck and yelled at Lin Wen: "And don't think about threatening me anymore. I'm almost sixteen, and I know I should

Do something."

"I don't want to really beat you up. Just like Gloria said, you have taken care of me and helped me no matter what. You are no longer my opponent now, you sick little boy."

"..." David's words stunned Lin Wen.

"What a bastard."

With a low curse, he hit David with a scalp, which made David stagger. He covered the back of his head and looked at him with a grin. Lin Wen suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, go to your school."

David didn't speak, but sat on the sofa and held his nose in silence.

"Don't worry, Gloria has prepared genuine software for you. Go to your school honestly. After today, you will have the same equipment as those young masters."

"But, I really don't want to spend her money anymore." David sighed and looked at Lin Wen again. The meaning of his words made Lin Wen happy.

Damn you kid, are you trying to make fun of me?

I paid for the software you bought!

"She is your mother. It is only natural that you use her money. Get out of here and be filial to her from now on."

David nodded and looked at Lin Wen with displeasure when he stood up. Obviously...he was obviously going to scold Lin Wen and kick this guy out, but why was he being tricked inexplicably now?

Well, otherwise there wouldn’t be a situation where we are noisy every day, but he still comes over from time to time.

After putting on his school uniform, David walked out angrily, thinking to himself that he would be more serious with him next time.

At least, at least you don't have to suck Gloria's blood anymore, right?

"He's gone?"

Not long after David left, Gloria's door opened. She was full of energy, with a rosy face, wearing yellow work clothes, and tied up her red hair, revealing her delicate white collarbone.

It is an original product. What Lin Wen likes most about Gloria is the small red line under her cheek. The pattern adds a lot of charm to Gloria, and secondly, it is Gloria's collarbone.

And the lower body, the straight and round buttocks will make the loose overalls stand out.

The loose work clothes could not cover up Gloria's good figure at all.

"He just left." Lin Wen nodded with a smile.

"Then I'm going to work. By the way, how about you go to my room to sleep?" Gloria put away the bottles and jars on the table virtuously, turned around and said to Lin Wen.

"Forget it, I just got up and I'm not very sleepy now. I'll sit down and go back to sleep."

Lin Wen put out the cigarette with his fingertips and said to Gloria with a smile.

Gloria raised her head and said hesitantly to Lin Wen: "By the way, that money..."

"Just take it, don't worry about it, it's from a legitimate channel." Lin Wen's eyes flashed, he refused Gloria's transfer request, and said: "Another one, even if it's from an illegal channel.

Money, but who can control it?"

Laughing at himself, Lin Wen leaned back and sank into the sofa. He looked at the tattered ceiling and whispered: "Gloria, this world is completely fucking rotten.

..."

"What is illegal is legal..."

"..."

Gloria silently walked behind Lin Wen, then lowered her head.

The tip of her red hair lightly brushed against Lin Wen's cheek. Then, she bent down, closed her eyes and lightly pressed a kiss on Lin Wen's lips.

After they separated, Gloria's face turned a little red, not from shyness, but from congestion after bending down and bowing her head for a long time.

"But we have to live with hope, right?" She said softly, "I know you have always had a lot on your mind. David doesn't understand you, and I don't understand you either... But I will always be with you, as long as

Don’t abandon me.”

"..."

Lin Wen nodded, propped up his body and kissed her back. After they separated, he said with a smile: "Gloria, it's great to have you by my side."

Gloria smiled, picked up her bag and said, "Okay, I'll go to work."

"be safe."

"Okay, okay, at least we are protected by guards." Gloria opened the door, turned around and said to Lin Wen with a smile.

After the room was empty, Lin Wen lit another cigarette and smoked quietly.

If you hadn't met Gloria, what would you have done now?

I can't think clearly...

To be honest, Lin Wen is really tired of his past life.

Night City is very chaotic, but it is also very safe. Here, no one will care about your past outside. Here, Lin Wen avoids a lot of troubles.
To be continued...
