Chapter 2: Parting
This young man in black was none other than Ye Feng, but he hadn't used this name for nine years. Holding his sister's Ye Feng, the memory returned to the past. He was born in an ordinary family in Z City, in addition to his mother, he also has an older sister, the woman in front of him, Ye Xue. As for his father, since Ye Feng was sensible, he didn't find anything related to his father at home, and his mother never told him anything about his father, just that his father died in a car accident when he was very young. Ye Feng asked her sister, but her sister also didn't know anything about her father, and her understanding of her father was the same as Ye Feng's, just a sentence from her mother, who died in a car accident. But if it was really just a car accident and died, then why didn't there be a relic left by my father at home, even if it was just a photo.
However, when he was young, Ye Feng, as long as he asked his mother about his father, his mother's face would be gloomy and he would not say a word, and at night, Ye Feng would always hear a faint sobbing sound from his mother's room. Over time, the two siblings had to force themselves to admit the fact that their father died in a car accident.
Ye Feng's mother opened a small clothing store by herself, and the business was not prosperous, so she could only barely support the life of a family of three. Relying on her meager income, her mother worked hard to take care of her two children.
However, when Ye Feng was nine years old, his sister had just entered the first year of high school, but his mother was found to have advanced stomach cancer. This bad news, like a thunderclap, exploded in the hearts of this family of three. The few savings in the family were used for her mother's treatment, and although her mother did not agree, her sister had to take a leave of absence from school to return home to take care of her mother and younger brother. And Ye Feng, who was in elementary school at the age of nine, couldn't do anything, but could only look at his mother on the hospital bed, his face was getting paler and his body was getting thinner and thinner. His sister insisted that he continue to go to school every day, comforting him that he didn't have to worry about his mother's affairs. So Ye Feng choked back tears every day, tossing and turning between the school and the hospital.
One day after school, Ye Feng returned to the hospital and heard his sister's conversation with the doctor at the door of the ward. "Your mother already owes the hospital 10,000 yuan for her treatment, and if she can't pay the fees on time, then maybe we have to stop treating her." Hearing the doctor's words, Ye Feng saw his sister in the ward, knelt down in front of the doctor with tears on her face, and cried: "Doctor, I beg you, don't stop the treatment of my mother, I beg you, you must save my mother, I will definitely make up this money as soon as possible, please believe me." Looking at the poor girl in front of him, the doctor shook his head and walked out of the ward with a sigh.
Seeing this scene, Ye Feng's eyes had already blurred with tears, and he didn't let his sister find out, so he ran out of the hospital crying, came to a bench on the side of the street, hugged his head and cried. He didn't know how to help his mother, how to help his sister, and felt that he was useless. At this time, a man in a black suit came to Ye Feng and said lightly: "Little friend, do you need a sum of money?" ”
Ye Feng looked at the man who came to him suspiciously, although since he was a child, because of his mother and school teachings, he had a subconscious defensive psychology against strangers, but the man's words made him feel like a life-saving straw, and he nodded impatiently. Seeing him, the man nodded and said, "I know your situation, your mother is in urgent need of treatment now." I can give you a lot of money, but in this world, if you want anything, you have to pay, and I think although you are young, you should also understand this truth. ”
Nine-year-old Ye Feng, although his mind is not very mature, he also understands the meaning of the words of the man in front of him, he is willing to give himself money to save his mother, but there seems to be any conditions. Ye Feng, who knew that he could have money to save his mother, wiped the tears on his face and said, "As long as you give me money to save my mother, I will listen to you for everything." ”
Hearing Ye Feng's words, a smile appeared on the man's face, "I will give the money to your sister, but from now on, you have to go with me, maybe from now on, you will never see your mother and sister again." ”
Hearing that he might never see his mother and sister again, Xiao Yefeng asked puzzledly, "Why can't you see them." ”
The man said, "Because I'm going to take you out of here, to a faraway place, where you might lose your life." ”
Hearing the man say that he might die, Xiao Yefeng's face showed a trace of fear. The man in the suit continued: "Of course, you can refuse, but in this case, you may only be able to watch your mother be stopped from treatment and die in agony. The choice is yours, but I'll only give you a minute to think about it. ”
Hearing the man's words, Xiao Ye Feng's heart kept struggling, but when he thought that his mother, who had lost his treatment, would die in pain in front of him, Ye Feng's heart was pinched. A minute was not long, Ye Feng raised his head, looked at the man in front of him with a childish little face, and said firmly: "I promise you." ”
Seeing Ye Feng's answer, the man in the suit smiled and nodded, "Then, let's go." ”
Ye Feng pleaded, "Can I take one last look at my mother and sister?" The man shook his head mercilessly.
"Can I leave them a note?" Ye Feng did not give up.
The man looked at the young eyes that were looking at him in front of him, and said for a long time, "You have five minutes. ”
Hearing the man's answer, Ye Feng hurriedly took off his small schoolbag, took out a homework book from it, tore off a page of paper and spread it on the bench, and took out a pencil from an old stationery box, then leaned down and began to write on the paper.
After a while, he handed the paper to the man in front of him. The man took the paper, glanced at it casually, and saw that the paper was written uprightly, "Sister, take care of your mother, you must be good, I will miss you very much." The man's expression changed slightly when he saw these words, and then he waved to the side of the street, and the same man in a suit came to him, and he handed the note to the passer, and whispered a few words, and then the man walked towards the hospital. Only then did the man stretch out his hand to Ye Feng and said, "Okay, it's time for us to go." Ye Feng handed his hand to the man, and followed him gradually into the flow of people.
