Chapter 35: Only Du Kang
Halfway through his sleep, Jiang Zhou faintly heard the phone ringing, and then there seemed to be a burst of crying.
Lingyun.
She was instantly sober.
I got a piece of clothing, put on my slippers, opened the door, and prepared to go downstairs.
I don't know if Du Kang has come back, the cry just now......
It can't be that Ling Yun is being bullied.
After thinking about it, he still walked into Ji An's house.
"Wake up." She slapped him in the face.
Ji An was naked, naked, and when he saw that it was Jiang Zhou, he naturally reached out and hugged her in his arms.
"Tsk." Jiang Go's eyes widened in surprise by this sudden hug.
"Ji An. Let go. Are you awake at all? Jiang Zhou slapped him the back.
"What's wrong?" His voice was hoarse, and he had just woken up, and his voice was a little out of control.
"Come with me downstairs and have a look, I heard Ling Yun's cry."
……
The two went downstairs, and Ling Yun was holding something, ready to go out.
"Ji An? Jiang Zhou...... How did you guys get down? Ling Yun was very surprised, holding the big bag in his hand, looking a little flustered.
"Lingyun, it's so late, where are you going?" Jiang Zhou stepped forward and asked.
"I ...... I'm going out to do something......" Ling Yun pinched the bag strap in his hand, nervous.
"It's so late, it's dangerous to go out, why don't we go with you. If it's far away, it's okay to let Ji An drive. Jiang Zhou said.
Ling Yun hurriedly shook his head, "No need, you guys go back to sleep." ”
"What's in the bag, cash?" Ji An asked coldly.
When Ling Yun heard this, his eyes widened, and "Why are you ......?" and immediately closed his mouth again.
"Du Kang called you just now and asked you to send him money?" Jiang Zhou continued.
"You ......" Ling Yun was incredulous.
"I'm a light sleeper, and my hearing is more sensitive, so I vaguely respond to the sound of the phone, and ...... Your cry. Jiang Zhou explained.
"We all know about you." Ji An said.
After being silent for a while, Ling Yun seemed to be unable to support it at last, and the defense line collapsed instantly, and the whole person was paralyzed on the ground, whimpering and began to cry.
Jiang Zhou immediately stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.
And Ji An was standing on the side, so he naturally couldn't make any moves.
"He hit you?" Jiang Zhou asked softly.
Ling Yun paused and nodded heavily.
"it!" Jiang Zhou was angry and scolded in a low voice, he really wanted to slap him Du Kang ten times to relieve his anger.
"This kind of domestic violence man is really scumbag, so you still don't get a divorce?! Do you want to keep it for the New Year and chop him?! ”
Ling Yundi's crying gradually stopped, "I have to go and send him money." ”
Jiang Zhou felt that he had misheard, "What?!" That's it, and you're still sending him money?! ”
"Lingyun! Would you like to be sober?! ”
Jiang Zhou really hated that iron could not become steel.
"He's the husband I chose." Ling Yun said.
"But you can choose to be separated from him. This kind of husband, don't do it. Jiang Zhou said.
"I can't divorce him." Ling Yun suddenly shouted, and after that, a burst of rain fell on the green mountains.
"Why? In this day and age, divorce is not a big deal. Jiang Zhou said excitedly.
Ling Yun was silent for a while, his expression seemed to be covered by black clouds, but with a hint of joy: "I'm pregnant." ”
Now it is replaced by Jiang Zhou and Ji An are silent.
After a long time, Jiang Zhou asked, "Does he know?" ”
Ling Yun shook his head lightly, and his tone was bitter: "I don't know yet." ”
"So," Jiang Zhou took a deep breath, "if I'm not mistaken, you mean that because of having a child, you decided to forgive him." ”
Ling Yun didn't speak, just nodded.
"Are you sure that with a child, he can change?" Ji An asked.
"I... I want to take a gamble. Ling Yun's face was full of tears.
"Then I'll tell you from a man's point of view, don't overestimate a man too much." Ji An said.
Ling Yun looked up.
"Ever heard the saying that dogs can't change their? He hits you now, and he'll hit the kids later. ”
"No...... He wouldn't be like that...... He always wanted to have a child... He loves children...... He will definitely love our children so much..."Ling Yun muttered to himself.
"He used to love you, too." Jiang Zhou said unexpectedly.
He used to love you, but now he does this to you.
In the second half of the sentence, Jiang Zhou did not say.
In fact, men may not be sincere. When I promise you, I make a sincere promise. When you can't do it, you really can't do it.
"Now, he's not just domestic violence." Ji An said again.
Ling Yun is his friend with Zhou Qiguang, and he can't sit idly by and ignore himself.
"I understand." Ling Yun said, "But I just want to gamble once." Even if he's in the mire, I try to pull him out as best I can. ”
"You've already gambled twice." Jiang Zhou said.
Ling Yun looked at her puzzled.
"For the first time, you gambled on marriage with your own chips. The second time, you use your child as a bargaining chip to bet on his sense of responsibility. ”
Ji An also said that most men can't stand the test. Now that you've really made your decision, we're outsiders and can't say anything. But we are here today, and we cannot let it go. Jiang Zhou said.
"You give me something, and I'll deliver it for you." Jiang Zhou said to Ling Yun.
"Then I'll drive you there." Ji An said.
"No, how can that. Jiang Zhou, just stay and I'll go by myself. It's okay, anyway...... It's not the first time I've been there, either Ling Yun's voice became smaller and quieter as he spoke.
"Hey! It's not the first time??? Jiang Zhou was outraged.
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath, exhaled a long breath, and took several deep breaths before calming down his mood of wanting to scold.
"You're pregnant now, go there, maybe the miasma pushes and pushes and hurts you?"
Ling Yun was still a little hesitant.
"Children are the most important thing to you right now, aren't they?" Jiang Zhou got to the point all of a sudden.
"But I can't just bother you like that, what should I do if something happens to you?" Ling Yun said.
"Don't worry, Ji An will go with me. I'll talk to him about what to do. ”
Finally, Ling Yun finally agreed.
Ji An went to start the off-road vehicle, and Jiang Zhou quickly ran upstairs to change clothes.
By car, the road is not far, but the night is a little cool.
Jiang Zhou took the opportunity to open the bag and glanced at the money inside.
"About 50,000." Jiang Zhou said.
"Do you want me to go in with you later?" Ji An asked.
"No, I already know each other. Moreover, there may be unexpected troubles if you go. I'm a woman who gives money, and they shouldn't embarrass me. Didn't Ling Yun say it, it wasn't the first time she went. Jiang Zhou said.
"Then I'll wait outside, leave quickly after delivering the money, and if you don't come out within 20 minutes, I'll call the police." Ji An said.
"Call the police? This casino, no matter how you say it, can be regarded as blatant, and it is estimated that it has long been in collusion with this group of local people. Jiang Zhou analyzed.
"You're right. However, I called the police, and even if it was a formality, they would come. ”
"Or do you wish I could go in and save you?" Ji An asked.
"There's no need." Jiang Zhou replied quickly.
She's a woman, just go in and give some money.
And Ji An's big man, when he stops there, it's like going to smash the field.
On the contrary, it will be more dangerous.
Although he knew her considerations and her rationality when thinking about the problem, Ji An couldn't help but glance at her quickly.
If you are too sensible, you will actually lose a lot of things.
But she was not convinced, Ji An knew.
Her personality, after this period of getting along, he can already figure out seven or eight points.
The remaining thing that is uncertain is her feelings.
She is a person who is more rational than emotional.
And there are a lot of them, and the proportions are extremely uneven.
But she has ruthlessness in her bones, maybe she needs a breakthrough point before she can really break out.
When he arrived at the tavern, Jiang Zhou got out of the car with his bag.
"Be careful." Ji An instructed.
……
Although the door of the tavern was already closed with a flag, the door was closed.
It was dark, and the old-fashioned tavern looked like it was going on with a ghost movie.
Jiang Zhou pushed the door in, and then a waiter walked over.
"I'm sorry Miss, we're already closed." He said politely.
It's really trying to cover up.
Jiang Zhou thought to himself.
"I'm here to send some of this to my friend." After saying that, she also made a gesture of pinching the banknote and rubbing it back and forth like the waiter before.
The waiter is a person who understands, "Miss, please come here." ”
Jiang Zhou followed the waiter into the door, and when he went downstairs, he smelled a strong smell of cigarettes.
The ears are still filled with the sound of playing mahjong and rolling dice.
Only then did she see the whole basement.
There is no deliberate decoration, but it looks very plain, with only rough cement walls around, and not even a single paint.
There are more than a dozen tables inside, a variety of ways to play, and some machines.
Leaning against the cement wall, there is a jar of wine, the kind of large vat.
Is it for cover?
Create the illusion of a wine cellar?
When I looked up, I saw that there were all kinds of refrigerators, and the temperature in the basement was indeed relatively cold.
"Miss, who are you looking for?" The waiter asked.
"Du Kang." Jiang Zhou said.
"Mr. Du? Okay, please follow me. The waiter said.
Jiang Zhou followed forward, and on the way, she also saw the waiter who greeted her yesterday.
Along the way, almost all of them were men, and of course, there were women, but there was very little alcohol in comparison.
Walking further, I saw Du Kang, sitting at a table, with Erlang's legs crossed, smoking a cigarette, and a lot of wine in front of the table.
Snuff out the cigarette, toss a card, then picks up a glass of wine and drinks it all.
Jiang Zhou put the bag in his hand directly on the table in front of Du Kang.
"Mr. Du, your friend is here." The waiter said.
Du Kang obviously didn't realize that the person who came was no longer Ling Yun, so he drank another glass of wine.
Du Kang Du Kang, sure enough, has a fate with wine.
"Alright, you can go back." He didn't even look at it, and focused on the cards in his hand.
"Du Kang." Jiang Zhou spoke.
Hearing that this voice was not Ling Yun, Du Kang realized that he raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhou standing in front of him with a calm face.
The whole expression was very surprised, and in Jiang Zhou's eyes, it was even a little funny.
The shame of being watched streaking was on his face.
"Jiang Zhou? Why are you here? He asked, still holding the cards in his hand, with a stunned expression.
