When I returned to hold the annual company meeting in my country, I took the opportunity to secretly visit my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Just one year without seeing them, my father-in-law and mother-in-law seemed to have aged ten years.

A private detective told me that dog was very difficult to take care of.

In addition to taking care of the dog's daily food, drink, and waste, my father-in-law and mother-in-law also had to guard against the dog suddenly attacking people.

Meanwhile, Li Hui's earnings from work could barely support herself.

Most of my father-in-law and mother-in-law's retirement money was spent on buying beef for the dog, leaving them with simple meals for themselves.

After being bitten by the dog twice, my mother-in-law's leg did not heal completely due to inadequate nutrition.

I stood in a corner of the street, watching my mother-in-law limping, my father-in-law supporting her unsteadily, while Li Hui walked in front carrying the dog.

Seeing my father-in-law and mother-in-law in such a state at their age was quite pitiful, but it was all their own choice.

I extinguished the cigarette in my hand and quietly left.
