Chapter 45: Two Slaps (Ask for Collection)
went straight to the dresser, moved the dresser away, and was about to go in and grope, Li Mengmeng ran over and pulled him again.
Chen Mengran suddenly felt irritable, reached out and shook Li Mengmeng's body away with his arm. Although she is a few years younger than her, her strength is not comparable to that of a woman. This time not only threw her away, but also directly threw her to the ground.
Chen Mengran also felt that she was too rude, but this was not the time to sympathize with her. After fumbling around again, I quickly found the little drawer. After pulling it out, he took out the box inside and opened it, and a green glow loomed, not the Jade Buddha.
"Found it. Chen Mengran was overjoyed, and his heart was like a stone falling to the ground, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Brought the Jade Buddha to Li Mengmeng and asked, "What else do you have to say?"
Li Mengmeng had already gotten up from the ground, and when she saw that the secret was exposed, she had nothing to say, and she collapsed on the ground, her eyes glazed over, and her face was full of panic.
As Chen Mengran said yesterday, her crime is tantamount to theft, and this Jade Buddha is priceless, if Chen Mengran calls the police, it will definitely be enough to sentence her for a few years.
Thinking that her good youth would be spent in prison, Li Mengmeng felt a sense of despair born from the bottom of her heart.
"I admit it, I was confused for a while, you take the Jade Buddha, please don't call the police, please. ”l
Li Mengmeng sat up from the ground, knelt down in front of Chen Mengran, pulled his trouser leg, pear blossoms and rain on his face, and pleaded with a face.
Chen Mengran had never been so kneeling and praying, not to mention that the other party was still a beauty, so the original questioning mind disappeared, and he was a little sympathetic to her.
However, whether to call the police or not is not what Chen Mengran said, but Li Mengxi. After all, this is a matter between them, Chen Mengran is just a middleman who spreads words, if Li Mengxi doesn't want to let her go, Chen Mengran will never intercede for her. He and Li Mengmeng have no communication, and they can't go against their will for her.
"What do you say?" Chen Mengran asked Li Mengxi secretly.
"Give her a slap in the face for me. Li Mengxi said coldly.
"This ......" Chen Mengran was a little embarrassed, he couldn't do this kind of thing by himself, not to mention that the other party was still a woman.
"What, can't you do it?" Seeing that Chen Mengran didn't do it for a long time, Li Mengxi asked, with some impatience in his tone.
Chen Mengran sighed secretly, determined not to disobey the wishes of the God of Wealth.
glanced down at Li Mengmeng's pretty face full of tears, endured the unbearable in her heart, and slapped her in the face quickly. Because he was afraid that Li Mengxi would see that he was perfunctory, he still used some strength in this slap.
only heard the crisp sound of "pop", and Li Mengmeng already had a red mark on his left cheek.
Li Mengmeng screamed in pain, covering her cheeks, and there were more tears in her eyes.
"I slapped my cousin on my behalf. Chen Mengran said.
didn't understand the meaning of Chen Mengran's words, Li Mengmeng sat up again, knelt in front of Chen Mengran, pulled up his trouser leg, and pleaded: "I should be beaten, it's me who is confused for a while, and I'm sorry for Mengxi." Please don't call the police, as long as you don't call the police, anything. ”
"Hey, if you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place. Chen Mengran couldn't bear to say.
Li Mengmeng saw the unbearability on Chen Mengran's face, and instantly realized that things might have a turn for the better, so she began to beg non-stop, and even kowtowed to Chen Mengran twice. At this point, this woman who was originally proud and cold, and her eyes were empty, had to let go of her dignity. No matter how important dignity is, freedom is not important, if she really goes to prison, then she would rather die.
How could Chen Mengran stand such a pleading, and he became more and more sympathetic to Li Mengmeng.
"People make mistakes, and she is also greedy for a while, and she is not bad in itself. Besides, the things are in hand, I think, this matter is over. Chen Mengran began to intercede for Li Mengmeng.
"Coveting my family heirloom and wanting to let her go, how can there be such a cheap thing. Li Mengxi said coldly, obviously, Chen Mengran's plea did not work.
After speaking, Li Mengxi's words suddenly became meaningful: "You didn't listen to her, as long as you don't call the police, you can do anything, don't you want to do something to her?"
"What do you do to her?" Chen Mengran was confused by Li Mengxi's words, but immediately after, his eyes lit up.
"You mean, let me extort her. It's a good opportunity. She works in a large company and must have money, so it shouldn't be a problem if she asks for a hush money of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. But extortion is also a crime, if she changes her face and calls the police after receiving the money, then I won't go to jail, no, this idea is not good. ”
He chattered a lot, and finally only got Li Mengxi's two-word evaluation: "Idiot." ”
Chen Mengran hadn't asked where the idiot was, so he heard Li Mengxi say, "Give her a slap on my behalf again." ”
"Still fighting. ”
"It's hard to solve the hatred in my heart if I don't fight. ”
Chen Mengran endured the unbearable in his heart and slapped Li Mengmeng.
Li Mengmeng was still crying and begging, but seeing that Chen Mengran's face became more and more sympathetic, and the hope of survival in her heart was even better, but she didn't want to be slapped again suddenly, and this slap completely stunned her.
It's not that this slap is too hard, but it's obviously unbearable, but he still has to slap her, this kind of inconsistent expression makes Li Mengmeng afraid.
"This person can't be a psychopath, right?" Li Mengmeng was frightened by this conclusion.
If she is a normal person, she will admit it if she sacrifices some money and even sacrifices her body, but if she encounters a neuropathy, then Li Mengmeng will have no choice. Looking at Chen Mengran's unbearable face, the more he looked at it, the more he felt cold, and he was more convinced that Chen Mengran was a neurotic.
If Chen Mengran knew Li Mengmeng's thoughts, I am afraid that he would definitely laugh.
After a slap, several people were silent, and the quiet needle drop in the room could be heard.
Chen Mengran quietly waited for the God of Wealth's next instructions, but the God of Wealth didn't squeak for a long time.
Just when Chen Mengran was a little impatient, Li Mengxi's voice finally echoed in his mind.
"Ask her why she covets my baby, is it because she wants to sell it for money?"
"Why do you covet my cousin's treasure, do you want to sell it for money?"
"No, it's not. Li Mengmeng shook her head.
"What's the reason for that?"
"Because ......," Li Mengmeng showed an embarrassed expression on her face.
Seeing this, Chen Mengran urged: "What is the reason?"
"I'm afraid you won't believe me either. ”
"If you don't say it, how do you know that I don't believe it?" Chen Mengran said in a rhetorical voice.
"Well, I sue you. Li Mengmeng groaned and finally nodded.
"My parents died when I was a child, I was raised by a relative, my childhood was not good, because of my withdrawn personality, I didn't have any friends, until I met Mengxi, let me taste the value of friendship for the first time. ”
"Mengxi is my best friend, from junior high school to work, we have been eating and living together, so to speak, we talk about everything. Because of my unfortunate childhood, I rarely talked to her about my childhood. Mengxi doesn't have such scruples, she lives in a happy family, and as an only daughter, she is favored by her parents like a pearl in the palm of her hand. She often told me about her childhood and her parents, and many of them were related to the Jade Buddha. ”
"I like to listen to these interesting stories, and sometimes I beg her to repeat them over and over again, because I can put myself in them, and I feel that they are also my childhood joys. ”
Gradually, I extended from being obsessed with those interesting stories to the Jade Buddha, after all, the interesting things are in the past, and the Jade Buddha who witnessed those interesting things can carry the fantasy of childhood misfortune in my heart. ”
"The day before Mengxi's accident, for some reason, I felt very irritable that day, and it seemed like I was about to lose the most important thing in my life. I don't know why I feel this way, but instinctively, I want to keep it. So Mengxi and I borrowed the Jade Buddha, but I didn't expect her to have an accident the next day. I was saddened that I had lost my most important friend in life. ”
"On the second day of the funeral, my aunt came to the apartment we rented together to pack up Mengxi's belongings. And the most important Jade Buddha was not found. At that time, she asked me, I was very entangled, I knew that the jade Buddha was very important to my aunt, it was to carry her love for her daughter, but I was not. Without Dream Creek, I also need something to solace and reminisce. ”
In the end, Li Mengmeng cried bitterly.
Chen Mengran didn't expect that a jade Buddha would go beyond its value itself and extend to the spiritual level, which made him feel emotional, but also sympathized with her more and more.
"Do you believe her words?" Chen Mengran asked Li Mengxi secretly.
Li Mengxi pondered for a moment and said, "What she said in the front is the truth, and I don't know in the back." ”
In fact, in her heart, she already believed. Many times before her death, Li Mengmeng pestered her to tell her about her childhood, and she also played with the Jade Buddha, with a fascinated expression in her eyes. At that time, Li Mengxi thought that Li Mengmeng wanted to hear those childhood anecdotes, but she didn't expect her heart to be so complicated.
"A child who lost her parents at an early age and had an unhappy childhood, her character and some thoughts are indeed not understandable to us children raised in normal families, especially some ideas that seem ridiculous to us, but they just reflect the strongest desires in their hearts. So, I believe her. Chen Mengran said.
"Forgive her. ”
Li Mengxi was silent, and finally sighed faintly, and said: "I'm a dead person, and I'm no longer qualified to forgive a living person, if you want to forgive, let my mother forgive." ”
Chen Mengran understood the meaning of Li Mengxi's words, and said to Li Mengmeng, who was still paralyzed on the ground and crying: "You don't have to ask me for forgiveness, if you really want to be forgiven, then go and pray to my aunt, after all, this is a matter for the two of you." Get up, take the Jade Buddha, and let's go to her and see if she can forgive you. ”
After speaking, Chen Mengran personally helped Li Mengmeng up.
Li Mengmeng stood up and wiped the tears on her face, but she had doubts in her heart.
"Auntie, he didn't say aunt before, why did he become an aunt again, what is the identity of this cousin. ”
I was puzzled, but I was afraid of angering Chen Mengran, so I didn't dare to pick out the words, so I washed up briefly, changed my clothes, and left the room with Chen Mengran.
