71. Protection Fee? [Jade Pei plus more for the soul brother]
Protection money?
The tears that flowed from Wang Qian's eyes instantly extinguished the manic desire in my heart, and I suddenly had no thoughts in my heart.
When I was drinking tonight, Wang Qian said that she liked me just because I looked like his ex-boyfriend, to put it bluntly, I was actually a substitute for her longing.
Whether it's tonight's drunkenness or her tears now, it doesn't really have anything to do with me at all, all she can't let go of is the ex-boyfriend who looks like me.
Thinking of this, I don't know why I feel surprisingly angry in my heart, like a child whose beloved toy has been robbed and wants to scold his mother.
"Don't go... Don't go..."Wang Qian held my hand tightly, closed her eyes and muttered quietly, tears wet her pillow, I took a deep breath, and never broke her fingers ruthlessly.
"Well, I'm not leaving!" I pursed my lips and gently patted Wang Qian's back twice, coaxing the child as if coaxing her, "Sleep at ease, I won't go anywhere..."
It may have been that my appeasement had an effect, and after a while, Wang Qian actually let out a slight snoring sound, and a sweet smile slowly appeared on her face.
"You must have dreamed of a happy life with him!" Looking at Wang Qian, I felt extremely bitter in my heart, and there was a faint little sadness.
I should have been self-aware a long time ago, how could a beautiful lady like Wang Qian fall in love with me for no reason, I was naïve to think that I must have some advantages that others don't have, so Wang Qian is so obsessed, now I think about it, it's really narcissistic!
Seeing that Wang Qian was asleep, I took out my somewhat sour palm from her palm, sat on the bedside table next to me, and lit a cigarette by myself...
But as soon as I saw the sweet smile on Wang Qian's face, and then thought that the smile had nothing to do with me, my heart felt like a pinprick pain, "What the are you sad?
"Since I don't like it, why do I rush forward again when I see her being molested tonight!"
"I'm convinced!" I grabbed my hair in exasperation and ran into the bathroom again, unscrewing the faucet and sticking my head into the icy water, as if that was the only way to make my exploding head more comfortable.
No one would believe that on such a beautiful night, I was sitting alone on the toilet in the bathroom.
At five o'clock in the morning, I came out of the bathroom with red eyes, Wang Qian's kitten seemed to be curled up in the quilt and slept soundly, pressed the quilt for her, folded the clothes neatly and put them on the pillow, I just let out a sigh of relief and closed the door and walked down the stairs.
At five o'clock, the sky was just bright, and the cannon street was empty, and I could only see a few sanitation workers cleaning up, I just wanted to leave before Wang Qian woke up, but after I really walked out of the door, I didn't know where to go.
Go to the hospital, it's still early, it will definitely affect Wang Xing's rest, if you go back to school, there is still a period of time before you go to morning self-study, and my clothes are full of Wang Qian's vomit, which is really a bit buried, and I don't really want to go back to school.
I walked aimlessly down the street, my mind was like a mess, I didn't know what I wanted to do, and as I walked, I actually ran into an acquaintance who was not an acquaintance, the bearded old man who sold knives from the overpass.
The uncle was still wearing a dirty brown-red Tang suit, and his beard made people feel like a good person at first glance.
"Hey, young man, we're really fated!" the uncle was instantly happy when he saw me, and he stretched out his palm to me as if he was familiar with me.
Glancing at the black dirt in his oily palms and fingernails, I squeezed out a smile and shook him, "Yes, uncle, did you come out for a walk so early?"
"No, no, no, I just talked to someone about a big deal!" the uncle waved his hand, and it was vaguely visible that there seemed to be dried rice hanging on his thick beard.
"Oh, congratulations to uncle! I have something to do, let's talk about it another day!" I thought it would be okay to look at his rat-like little eyes.
"Don't worry, little brother, last time I calculated for you that there would be noble people to help, did it come true?" the bearded hand held my hand so hard that I couldn't break free at all.
"Uncle, look at me now, do you look like a noble person to help me?" I frowned and grinned at him.
"Little brother, you're a little unrealistic! Is there any unexpected gain, you should know better than me, seriously recall, has your life really not changed recently?" The uncle stroked his messy beard and looked at me seriously.
"I really don't!" I finally pulled my hand out after a long time, took a few steps back, and waved my hand at him, "Uncle, I'm really in trouble! I'll go to the overpass to talk to you another day..."
If it weren't for him again this time, I would have almost forgotten that he had calculated a hexagram for me on the flyover, and to tell you the truth, my life has changed dramatically since listening to him on the flyover.
First of all, Wang Qian took the initiative to show favor to me, secondly, I finally met my brother, and my brother seems to be living a very good life, and finally I gained Zhang Hao, a special "ally", but I still don't want to believe what is "fate".
"Little brother, your fortune is not in the northeast, your blessed land should be in the south! I hope to see you soar one day in the future! But now you have a big calamity, since we have a fate, why don't I end a good fate with you today, give me five hundred yuan, and I can help you resolve this calamity!" The bearded uncle probably saw that I didn't want to talk to him much, and raised his head at me with his hands in a fairy manner.
If this guy could have combed his beard neatly and put on a clean outfit, I think it would have been more realistic.
"Then borrow my uncle's auspicious words, I also wish my uncle a prosperous business and a wide range of financial resources! I really don't have a dime now, if I really get rich one day, don't say 500, 550000 is a trivial matter!" I hurriedly clasped my fists with both hands and said goodbye to him.
If I was still in awe when I first met him, when I saw him now, my first reaction was that he was a charlatan.
Without waiting for him to continue to say anything, I ran away and seemed to run in the direction of the school, and while running, I secretly slandered in my heart, "There is a catastrophe in labor and management, how can you not go to heaven so much, why don't you calculate what number to open for the next welfare lottery..."
After wandering around the school gate for a long time, the door finally opened, and I decided to go back to the dormitory first, whether I went to class or not, at least I changed into clean clothes, and I figured that I could stand up now if I threw my socks on the ground.
Pushing the door into the dormitory, several classmates in the dormitory had just gotten up, and when they saw me enter the door, they all looked at me quietly.
"Brother Kang..."Zhang Bing, the "girl" who was beaten by Wang Xing last time, was the first to greet me, and several other people also called me "Brother Kang", I didn't go back to the dormitory for a while, I actually changed from a "broom star" to Brother Kang, I have to say that the encounter in life is really amazing.
As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, they greeted me, I naturally smiled and nodded in response, while dragging out my own box from under the bed to change clothes, while asking Zhang Bing, "Nothing has happened lately, right?
"The wild dog comes to check on you and Brother Xing almost every day, and says that you should come back and find him, otherwise I will be ready to hand you two over to school!" Zhang Bing replied honestly.
"Well, I know! Thank you!" I nodded, thinking that I really should go to the wild dog, the last time he rescued me and Wang Xing from Lin Remnant, he never had time to thank people.
"Brother Kang... There's another thing..."Zhang Bing glanced at several other people in the same dormitory, and walked up to me without saying anything, "The brothers of the first year of high school, let you and Brother Xing hurry up and pay the protection fee, we have all paid, and it doesn't cost much, ten yuan per person..."
