I drove all the way at a fast speed, speculating in my heart about the purpose of Chu He's coming to Xuzhou, and it was not difficult to hear from her tone that she was in a bad mood.

About a quarter of an hour later, I arrived at the train station and immediately called Chu He, who told me that she had not gone to eat and was in front of the square of the train station.

I parked the car on the side of the road and walked towards the square in front of the train station, and in the crowd, I finally found Chu He standing in the cold wind, although the light was not good enough at night, I could still see her solemn expression.

I walked towards Chu He, and she also spotted me in the overlook and walked towards me.

I didn't want the atmosphere to be too solemn after the meeting, so I asked with a smile: "Chu Dazhang, why didn't you find a place to eat first." ”

Chu He smiled obviously and said, "Wait for you to invite me." ”

My heart was heavy because of her forced smile, and I was even more eager to know what had happened to her, and I needed to rush to Xuzhou to ask me for help.

......

Chu He and I found a relatively quiet restaurant near the train station, the two of us ordered something, and while waiting for the meal, I asked Chu He, "Say, what do you need my help with?"

Chu He looked at me with a complicated expression, and was silent for a long time before saying, "Jiaming, I opened a music bar in Suzhou. ”

I was surprised and replied, "You open a music bar!

Chu He said in a low tone, full of helplessness: "I am in the entertainment industry, it is naturally best if I can be famous, but what if not? Have you ever thought about how I should live? I have no work skills, what can I do without investment, how can I support myself?"

I was silent, feeling in my heart how insecure this world is, most people are struggling, struggling to find the conditions for their own survival, and I asked Chu He for a long time: "You invested in opening a music bar, Lu Yu and Meng En should know about it, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"Then why have I never heard them mention it to me?"

"Last time you didn't agree with me opening a bar, so I didn't let them tell you. ”

At this time, it was hard for me to blame Chu for not listening to my dissuasion, and I also understood in my heart why she came to me, so I calmed down and asked, "How much money have you invested in this music bar?"

Chu He's expression was even more gloomy, he was silent for a long time, and said to me in a low voice: "More than a million." ”

I thought I had misheard and asked again, "How much?"

"Nearly one and a half million. ”

"I'm ...... Are you crazy? 1.5 million! This thing in the bar, you can invest hundreds of thousands of dollars to play, aren't you playing with fire by investing so much money?" I almost yelled at Chu He.

Chu He bowed his head and was silent......

I lit a cigarette, knowing that it would be useless to blame her at this time, I took a heavy puff of cigarette, and asked Chu He in a lighter tone: "You tell me, where did you get so much money to invest?"

"The salary of the last play is 500,000, and then ......" Chu He paused for a long time and mustered up the courage to say to me: "Then I borrowed 1 million loan sharks from a friend." ”

I fell into silence, and I realized the seriousness of the situation, I didn't expect Chu He to dare to touch a loan shark, her investment was too blind.

I took another puff of my cigarette before I said, "Tell me, how is the bar doing now?"

"Can't make ends meet...... The business is in terrible shape. Chu He replied, my voice was already choked.

I fell silent again, because more than a million dollars were completely beyond my ability to solve.

"Jiaming, what should I do now?...... you want to help me" Chu He looked at me helplessly.

I was emotionally depressed and uncomfortable, and I finished smoking half a cigarette in one gulp, but I still kept calm and said: "The top priority is to pay back the loan shark first, this thing is too scary to roll in profits, and the operation of the bar will be talked about later." ”

Chu He nodded and said, "I will find a way to pay back the loan shark." ”

"How are you going to pay it back, where did you get the money to pay it back?"

After my questioning, Chu He looked helpless and dazed, and said as if he had made up his mind for a while: "It's a big deal, I'm ......"

"What are you doing?" I said, angry.

Chu He replied in a snort: "There are rich businessmen ......."

I immediately interrupted and said, "Chu He, I don't allow you to do this, you have to give me a dignified life, do you hear?"

"But what else can be done?"

"I'll figure it out with you, but you have to dispel that thought. I said to Chu He very resolutely.

Chu He raised his head at this time, looked at me with tears in his eyes, and said to me for a long time: "I'm sorry, Jiaming, I caused you trouble again." ”

I was upset, but I still comforted: "Don't say that, your motives for investing in bars are not wrong, and this is also forced by life." ”

After receiving my understanding, Chu He's tears flowed down like an embankment, and she sobbed and said to me: "Jia Ming, the matter of usury...... I will definitely find a way to solve it myself, I will come to Xuzhou to find ...... You just want you to help me run a good ...... Bar, I know you're smart...... There will definitely be a way to help the bar get through this...... You're going to promise me?......"

Chu He's tears made my heart twist, but at this time, I had no way to promise her, if I went back to Suzhou to help her run the bar, it would mean that I would have to give up the job that I had so hard to stabilize in Xuzhou, and even ...... is even in a relationship with Chen Sitian.

After a long silence, I whispered to Chu He: "I'm sorry, I already have a new life in Xuzhou, and Suzhou ...... I really can't go back!"

My reply filled Chu He's face with heart-rending pain: "Jiaming...... I beg you not to refuse, okay?...... I don't know who else I can rely on but you...... I'm going to have a breakdown!"

My heart tingled, as if I was once again in the kind of choice that made me painful, I knew that a woman like Chu He seemed to have many friends, but there were very few people who could really help her in trouble, and even if they had the ability to help her, they coveted her body and beauty...... Unless you let go of a woman's dignity, she is truly helpless and lonely.

In the struggle that suffocated me, I finally said to Chu He: "You let me think about it, think about it!"

Chu He's expression was a little relaxed, and he nodded with tears in his eyes, and the food he ordered was also brought up by the waiter at this time.

I unpacked the chopsticks, handed them to Chu He, scooped a small bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup and handed it to her, and said with a comforting smile: "Let's drink some hot soup first." ”

Chu He nodded meekly, took the small bowl from my hand, and I didn't have the appetite to eat myself, I took out a cigarette from the cigarette box again, and my heart was full of the pain of choice, if I really want to give up my job here and return to Suzhou with Chu He, how should I face Chen Sitian?

In the smoke, I seemed to see the distorted life again...
