58. Guilt
Lu Zaiyuan seemed to be afraid that Wu Kexin would see the flaws, so he turned his face to look at the other side, and said, "Don't guess, it's not good to know too much." Things between us went according to the agreement, you helped me keep an eye on Pei Tianming, and after the facts, I transferred Zhimei's equity to you, that's all. β
"Of course I do! Rest assured! I'm just joking with you, with you and Zhao Liangmao watching from the sidelines, I just have that heart, and I don't have that guts. No matter how tempting the wealth is, you have to have a life to enjoy it, I will definitely not give Pei Tianming a son. Wu Kexin assured him.
"I believe in you, I know that you are a smart woman, otherwise I would not have cooperated with you in the first place." Lu Zaiyuan's attitude also eased.
At this point, Lu Zaiyuan's phone rang. It was Nanxi who called, and he quickly picked it up.
"Curly! You left your wounds behind, where did you run away alone? Are you going to starve me to death and save the money for the divorce? Nanxi was full of resentment on the phone.
Lu Zaiyuan smiled: "Don't say it so ugly, am I such an inhuman person?" What do you want to eat? I'm downstairs in the hospital, I'll go out and buy it for you. β
"I want a burger"
"Can your mouth open that wide?" Lu retorted immediately in the distance.
"Then eat the soup dumplings"
"The doctor won't allow you to eat anything too greasy, I'd better go buy porridge for you, you wait a while, I'll go back immediately."
"You are such a hypocrite that you obviously don't let me choose, and you still come to ask me what I want to eat?" Nanxi scolded him and hung up the phone with a "snap".
Lu Zaiyuan shook his head, put away his phone, and stood up: "It is estimated that Pei Tianming is about to come out, it is inconvenient for me to talk to you more here, I will go first"
"Buy porridge for your little wife?" Wu Kexin teased him.
"You're in charge of a lot." Lu Zaiyuan snorted.
"Of course, I can't take care of it, but you seem to be in love, Mr. Curly"
Lu Zaiyuan glared at her, turned around and left, ignoring her.
He drove out of the hospital, went to a famous porridge shop in the city, bought a pea beef porridge and a longan eight-treasure porridge, and hurried back to the hospital.
When he returned to Nanxi's hospital room, he found her lying there with her eyes closed, as if asleep.
I was shouting that I was hungry just now, and I fell asleep after a while?
Lu Zaiyuan didn't dare to wake her up, and put the two takeaway boxes on the bedside table. I was afraid that the porridge would be cold when she woke up, so I found two clean towels and wrapped the takeaway box.
After doing this, he turned his head and suddenly saw Nan Xi staring at him with wide eyes. He pretended to be frightened and jumped back: "Ouch! What about your corpse? Silently! It's scared to death! β
"Scared to death! Hungry for you! Nanxi grinded his teeth and said.
Lu Zaiyuan opened the freshly wrapped takeaway box, took out the spoon, and sat on the edge of the bed: "This is the pea beef porridge from the Zhao family's shop, it's fragrant, hurry up and take a few sips to block your mouth!" β
After speaking, he scooped a spoonful of porridge and fed it to her mouth, and when he saw that she took a sip and swallowed it, he asked, "Is it fragrant?" β
"I'm almost hungry, and everything I eat is fragrant." Nanxi snorted angrily.
Lu Zaiyuan took care of it so carefully, it can almost be said that it came and went as soon as it was called, and Nanxi was very moved in his heart. But the more she was moved, the stronger the sense of emptiness in her heart became.
When she was with Deng Jiaxiang before, she felt that Deng Jiaxiang was the best man in the world, and she was too good to say anything to her. At that time, she often said to Deng Jiaxiang: "If you leave me one day, I will die, because I am afraid that I will never find a man who is so good to me again."
But she didn't expect that immediately after leaving Deng Jiaxiang, such a better and better man parachuted into her side.
She sometimes thinks that maybe her parents have a spirit in heaven and can't bear to watch their daughter being hurt by love, so they arrange for Lu Ziyuan to accompany her.
Sometimes she thinks that he is so good, too good to be true, too good to be a seductive trap
Her mind began to wander, and people couldn't help but lose their minds. Lu Zaiyuan handed her a spoonful of porridge, but she didn't take it, just stared at his face in a daze.
He put the spoon back in the porridge bowl and asked her, "Can you see enough by looking at my face?" Shouting so loudly that you thought you could eat a cow, how many bites did you eat? You won't eat it? β
Nanxi rolled his eyes, and returned to Mu Huang Huang and pulled out the bones of the reckless and rough art, and Huang Huang was quietly stunned, and Mu Sui was stunned, and sent the emperor to send the sword, and the mother of the lotus root trade was about the sea class and Huang Xuan!
Lu Zaiyuan put the remaining half bowl of porridge back on the bedside table, picked up another bowl of longan eight-treasure porridge, and continued to feed her.
She took a sip and smacked her lips with satisfaction: "It's really better than that bowl, but fortunately, I'm smart and found out that you have hidden secrets."
Lu Zaiyuan didn't care about her, let her talk nonsense, and fed her half a bowl of porridge.
She shouted that she was full, so he took the spoon she had used, ate the two and a half bowls of porridge she had left, threw away the takeaway box, took water for her to rinse her mouth, and washed a hot towel to wipe her mouth and hands.
He took care of Nanxi like a child, Nanxi's heart was warm, he always couldn't hold back tears in his eyes, and he wanted to cry for a while.
She felt that she must be injured and in pain, so her heart became fragile and people were easily moved.
She was afraid that she would suddenly go crazy at some point and say something to him to express her affection. So she said, "Curly, I have been lying all morning, my whole body is sore, my bones are hard, I want to go out and breathe." β
Lu Zaiyuan responded to her needs, hurriedly went out to find the nurse and asked for a wheelchair, carried Nanxi to the wheelchair, and pushed her out of the ward.
It happened that Nanxi's attending doctor was passing by, and when he saw her out of the ward, he hurriedly advised: "Don't go out to blow the wind, just walk around the corridor." β
Nanxi glanced back at Lu Zaiyuan, and sighed pitifully: "Can't you go out?" Why don't you push me to see Old Man Zhao, although I don't have a good impression of his daughter and granddaughter, but I still admire that old man. β
Lu Zaiyuan pushed her to take the elevator according to what she said, and asked as he walked, "What do you worship him?" β
"Don't you even watch gangster movies? In those gangster films in Hong Kong, those big brothers are all hot-blooded and chivalrous, sticking knives in the ribs for their brothers, how handsome they are, by the way, you grew up in the UK, you shouldn't be able to see Hong Kong gangster films, but there are also "Godfathers" abroad, Marlon Brando! It's just the girl of my dreams! I heard that Mr. Zhao used to be a man of the year in the underworld, looking at his current appearance, you can know how charming he was back then" Nanxi is completely the mentality of a little girl, thinking that gangsters are all like in movies.
Lu Zaiyuan snorted: "Don't be too naΓ―ve, the reason why you call them gangsters is because they can't see the sun in what they do." It's all a lie in the movie, those people kill people and set fires, what don't they do? β
Nanxi heard him say this, and said to him dissatisfiedly: "What's going on with you today?" You refute whatever I say? I'm! β
Lu Zaiyuan also felt that she was serious, she just said it casually. So he hurriedly coaxed her: "Okay, I don't dare to make you angry, otherwise you will become stupid in the future, and you will have to rely on my head." I'm going to take you to see the real-life version of The Godfather, okay? Do you want to kneel before his old man and beg him to make a disciple of you? β
"How many years has he washed his hands! Besides, I'm a girl! If I were a man, I might have gone to his door."
The two of them chatted, and the elevator had reached the floor of the luxury ward where Zhao Liangmao was.
After the elevator door opened, Lu Zaiyuan pushed Nanxi out and came to the door of Zhao Liangmao's ward.
The door of the ward was open, and there was a special nurse in his thirties guarding Zhao Liangmao's side, who was reading a magazine because he had nothing to do. In addition to the sound of nurses flipping through magazines in the ward, it is the occasional ticking sound of medical instruments.
Zhao Liangmao didn't wake up, lying upright on the hospital bed, as if he was dead.
And his family has long since disappeared, and none of them are by his side.
Nanxi looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Alas, the hero is late, and the evening scene is bleak."
"I can't agree with the word hero, and you can hide the rest of the part," Lu Zaiyuan said coldly behind her.
"You're really unsympathetic." Nanxi said to him casually.
"Compassion cannot be abused casually, but only for people with humanity can there be compassion." Lu Zaiyuan argued.
Nanxi sighed: "Don't talk about an old man who is sick in bed like this, he is quite pitiful." β
Lu Zaiyuan no longer argued with Nanxi, and pushed her back: "His family is not here, let's not go into the ward"
On that day, Lu Zaiyuan accompanied Nanxi in the hospital and didn't go anywhere.
Nanxi has always been worried about her photos, and she wants to use her mobile phone to surf the Internet at every turn to see what is going on with those things. Lu Zaiyuan didn't allow her to worry about this matter anymore, so that she could recuperate with peace of mind. After repeated persuasions, he finally confiscated her mobile phone.
At night, Nanxi was sleepy very early, after all, there was a wound on his head, and his mental head was no longer than usual.
Lu Zaiyuan fetched hot water, scrubbed her body, and settled her to sleep. He sat on the edge of the bed, opened the laptop and put it on his lap, connected to the line, and logged into his β‘β‘ account.
As soon as it was launched, many messages popped up, all of which were sent by the same person.
He read them one by one, and then replied to the other party: Don't worry, things are going smoothly, simply put, the consequences: Zhao Liangmao was so angry that he had a cerebral hemorrhage, and he is still in the hospital in a coma.
After about a minute, the other party replied to him: This is good, just him off, it's too cheap for him! Spare him his life and let him be tortured slowly!
Lu Zaiyuan suddenly didn't know what to say.
He had been looking forward to this moment for twelve years!
For twelve years, he had only one feeling in his heart, and that feeling was called hatred!
But today, when he actually took that victory, he was not as excited as he expected. On the contrary, he was a little sad, a little dazed, and a little guilty.
He turned his head to look at Nanxi, who had fallen asleep, and his fingers swiped a few times on the keyboard, but he didn't type a word.
The other party didn't wait for his reply, so he asked him: What's wrong with you? What have you been doing without giving me any news all day?
He thought for a moment and typed down a few words: in the hospital.
This time, the other party didn't reply immediately, as if he was also thinking. Half a minute later, a sentence popped up: What kind of girl is Nanxi? You're in love with her, aren't you?
Lu Zaiyuan's eyes suddenly wet, and replied: She is very kind and simple, she was injured, and I took care of her in the hospital for a day, and she was grateful to me
The person on the other end of the Internet sent him a helpless expression, saying: A qiΔ will be fine, when this matter is over, you can do whatever you want, open your mind to pursue the girl you love, and you will be happy.
Lu Zaiyuan smiled bitterly and said: Over the years, I only seem to know what hatred is, and I don't know what love is, and then she knows the truth, and she won't forgive me.
Talking about this, Lu Zaiyuan's mobile phone "buzzed" on the bedside table. He was afraid of waking up Nanxi, so he quickly buckled up the computer and walked out of the ward with his mobile phone.
The call was from Pei Jiaoqian, and listening to her voice, I knew that she was already seven points drunk: "Curly, you come to pick me up, I can't go home"
Lu Zaiyuan frowned: "Why don't you call your husband?" I'm in the hospital."
"You're really not interesting, your wife can't die" Pei Jiaoqian's tongue curled, and her voice was slurred, "Is my husband also called a man?" I'm not looking for him! I want you to pick me up! Come pick me up! β
After speaking, she didn't even report her address, and hung up the phone with a "snap".
After Lu Zaiyuan returned to the ward, he turned on the computer again, and the other party had already left him a few words, and when he saw that he didn't reply, he asked anxiously: What are you doing? Where did it go?
He hurriedly replied: I answered a phone call, the daughter of the Pei family, who was drunk in a nightclub, and asked me to pick her up.
The other party immediately replied: Then go quickly!
Lu Zaiyuan was reluctant, so he said: I hate their family very much, I want to stay away from them!
The other party sent him an expression of touching his head and persuaded him: It won't be too long, you bear with it
Lu Zaiyuan sighed heavily and replied: Don't worry, I'll go!
Then he closed the computer and prepared to go out to find Pei Jiaoqian. Walking to the door of the ward, he folded back again, found a paper and pen, and wrote a note: Xiaoxi, I have an urgent matter, go out, and come back soon, don't worry.
He drove out of the hospital gate and took out his mobile phone to dial Pei Jiaoqian's number. After a long time, the phone was answered, but the voice was not Pei Jiaoqian, but a man: "Hey? This young lady is not available to answer the phone! Don't hit! β
There was deafening music on the phone, and it was very noisy. Lu Zaiyuan hurriedly raised his voice and asked the man: "I am her family!" Go pick her up and take her home, which nightclub is she in? β
"Roboact!" The other party shouted the name of a nightclub and hung up the phone.
The road turned around and headed towards the nightclub called "Robooperation".
There was little traffic at night, and in about half an hour, he arrived in that brightly lit part of the city. After finding the nightclub, he parked his car and went down to open the door of the bar, and a piercing sound piercing the human meninges and the strong smell of alcohol almost knocked him out of the door.
He frowned, endured the discomfort of this noisy environment, walked into the store, and searched the crowd, looking for Pei Jiaoqian's figure.
In the end, he found Pei Jiaoqian in a corner.
She was completely insane, carrying a bottle of wine in her hand and pouring it into her mouth with her neck tilted. Beside her, surrounded by two young men, both with bright hair colors, panda-like eye circles, wearing low-waisted jeans that show their groin, lifting their T-shirts in front of their chests, half-naked, rubbing against Pei Jiaoqian's body.
Pei Jiaoqian twisted her body wantonly under the attack of the two men, allowing the four hands of the two men to touch her body.
Her hair was messed up, her makeup was spent, and her skirt was lifted up at some point, wrapping around her waist, revealing her leopard-print little shorts inside.
Lu Zaiyuan was so shocked by the music that he was about to vomit, he stretched out his hands and pulled the people around him, and finally squeezed into the corner where Pei Jiaoqian was, first snatched the wine bottle in her hand and fell to the ground. Then he pulled down her skirt, grabbed her wrists and dragged her out the door.
The two men beside Pei Jiaoqian thought that Lu Zaiyuan was here to rob them of girls, and reached out and grabbed Lu Zaiyuan's clothes: "Hey, boy!" Do you understand the rules"
Before he finished speaking, he was punched by Lu Zaiyuan and knocked to the ground.
βCoolοΌβ Pei Jiaoqian screamed and threw herself on Lu Zaiyuan's body, "Curly hair is still your most handsome!" Kill them for me! Kill them all! Wanted to take advantage of Miss Ben and chopped off their hands"
She waved her arms and babbled gibberish.
Lu Zaiyuan grabbed her wrist and dragged her out: "You go out with me!" β
Pei Jiaoqian was so drunk that she couldn't stand up, and when she was dragged by him, she threw herself forward and fell to the ground. Lu Zaiyuan had no choice but to clamp her under the armpit, drag her out of the bar like a dead dog, and put her in the car.
Pei Jiaoqian's shoes were dragged off, the stockings on her feet were also rubbed on the ground, and the skin on her heels was worn out and oozing blood.
But she didn't feel the slightest pain, she was in the car far away, still shouting: "Bring wine to my sister!" Sister can still drink! β
Lu Zaiyuan didn't care about her, started the car, drove out of the city at a gallop, and drove up the mountain leading to the Zhao family's villa.
Pei Jiaoqian yelled and screamed all the way, she didn't know that she was in the car, and she thought she was in a bar, got up from the seat of the car, and wanted to dance, but her head hit the roof of the car with a "bang", and she almost fainted in pain, so she was honest.
Halfway up the mountain, the road stopped in the distance. After getting out of the car, he opened the car door and dragged Pei Jiaoqian out of the car.
