Chapter Twenty-Three: A Chance Encounter on a Street Corner
Hearing the word "one hundred years", Mo Sheng's face turned pale.
This means that he will never be able to leave this prison-like entertainment city again, let alone meet his family.
His body staggered, and he almost fell to the ground.
Qian Shilong continued to grin: "Well, but there is another way, after all, the old man is not a devil." ”
"What...... What?! You don't want me to hurt anyone! Mo Sheng glared at Qian Shilong angrily.
"Don't worry, I know that you are a righteous gentleman, and I will not embarrass you." Qian Shilong smiled, and changed his words: "Old Mo, I heard that you have a very beautiful daughter at home?" ”
Mo Sheng's face changed greatly, and he yelled at Qian Shilong: "This is a problem between us, don't involve my daughter!" ”
"Isn't it natural for a father to pay his daughter's debts? Since you, the father, see that it is useless, let your flowery daughter come.
It just so happens that the VIPs have also been tired of the existing entertainment recently, and it is time to have something new ♂ ♀. ”
"You bastard! Beast! Scum! Mo Sheng pointed at Qian Shilong with a trembling hand and cursed.
"You're to blame for all this!" Qian Shilong's face turned cold again, and then he motioned to the person next to him: "Take it down." ”
The secretary carried Mo Sheng and walked out, Mo Sheng continued to scold while struggling: "Qian Shilong, old horseman, you are shameless!" Spare my child, or I'll be done with you! ”
Qian Shilong snorted coldly in his nostrils and sat back on his office chair. The wailing of the weak is always so painless.
He took out a delicate little tin box from his bosom, took out a cigar from it, and re-lit it.
Squinting and taking a big puff, he then exhaled a huge smoke ring, his expression of satisfaction.
While enjoying a cigar, he pulled open the drawer of his desk and pulled out a photograph from inside.
The photo was taken on September 21, which should have been taken not long ago, and it shows a girl wearing the uniform of Donghai No. 1 Middle School:
Beautiful long hair, handsome face, alluring beauty......
The only fly in the ointment is that it's a bit of an airfield, which looks a bit like a boy's body.
But there are some people in this world who happen to be like this - such as Qian Shilong.
Staring at this photo carefully, he subconsciously licked his lips and said to himself: "Old Mo, your daughter looks amazing!" ”
With a creak, the door opened again, and the secretary who had taken Mo Sheng just now walked in again.
"What about Dr. Hou? Call him here, he has an errand to be handed to him. Qian Shilong leaned back on the office chair and shook the photo in his hand.
The secretary hesitated and replied: "Report to the boss, Dr. Hou has taken sick leave in the past few days and is still recuperating at home." ”
"Huh? Why? ”
"I don't know, he went to sing a KTV with his brother last weekend, and it seems that he has been calling in sick since then."
"This mallet is always not used at critical moments!" Qian Shilong scolded angrily and slapped the table suddenly.
Then, he threw the girl's photo to the secretary: "In a few days, you will personally take someone to tie up this girl, pay attention to concealment, and the means must be clean."
The secretary took the photo and was stunned by the girl's beauty for a few seconds, and then said, "Understood." ”
……
The next afternoon, after school.
Because I didn't participate in club activities, the team that went home from school today became a threesome of Lu Fan, Chen Guangyao and Elijah.
Originally, Chen Guangyao was still looking forward to going with Mo Xiaoxuan, but when he went to the classroom of Class 6 to ask, he learned that after Xiaoxuan got out of school, as usual, he left the classroom in a hurry and went home.
Chen Guangyao's eyes were full of loss, he thought that through these incidents, the distance between him and Mo Xiaoxuan could be shortened a little, at least to the extent that they could go home together after school!
Is it still his wishful thinking......
But then again, Mo Xiaoxuan has his own freedom, not to mention, he is a boy, two boys with a brotherly relationship, there is no need for each other to leave school together every day.
Although he comforted himself in this way, the indescribable loss in his heart was still like a flood beast, surging and surging like a beast.
"Chen Guangyao, are you alright?" Lu Fan shook his hands in front of him, which brought him back to his senses.
"Oh...... It's okay. Chen Guangyao barely managed to squeeze out a sporadic smile.
"Your good brother - Mo Xiaoxuan may have left in a hurry because of something at home, it's not that your relationship is estranged." The corners of Lu Fan's mouth curved, and he comforted him.
"What, what, what does it matter to me if she wants to leave early! I didn't ...... because of her," Chen Guangyao blushed, stretched out his hand to brush the yellow hair on his head, and made a weak defense.
Lu Fan secretly complained: Although you say so, your thoughts are honestly written on your face!
He and Ilya looked at each other and smiled, it seemed that this Chen Guangyao was still fighting with the gate of the new world.
The three of them chatted without saying a word, and then they arrived at the entrance of the shopping street.
There are three forks in the road ahead, Chen Guangyao's home and Lu Fan's home are not in the same direction, they used to be separated here when they walked together after school.
Chen Guangyao was about to say goodbye to Lu Fan when his head suddenly twisted and looked at a corner of the shopping street.
"Huh? I seem to have seen Mo Xiaoxuan just now! He wiped his eyes.
"No way, didn't she go home a long time ago, why did she run to the shopping street? You can't be mistaken, right? Lu Fanhu said suspiciously.
"I have many years of experience in observing her! Even if she was wrapped in a coat and completely changed, I could recognize her by her breath and walking posture! There is absolutely no possibility of a mistake. ”
Chen Guangyao clenched his fists and was full of pride.
Lu Fan broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead, is this something to be proud of? Aren't you a complete pervert?
"It's out!"
Chen Guangdazzled his eyes and dragged Lu Fan and Ilya to the side, and the servants sneakily hid behind the billboards on the side of the street.
I saw Mo Xiaoxuan coming out of a corner of the shopping street, she was wearing a white mask on her mouth, and she was not wearing a school uniform, but a white linen dress, and her hair was tied up at the back of her head.
At this time, she was still holding a battered canvas bag in her arms.
She breathed a sigh of relief as she poked her head left and right from the corner, and then took small steps to another street corner across the road and into the alley.
"Well, what is she doing, anyway, why are we hiding?" Lu Fan was a little helpless.
Chen Guangyao touched his head: "Ah, I'm sorry, because of the tail line for many years, so I subconsciously ...... That's probably the habit of the profession......"
You've finally admitted that you're the tail line!
"But Xiaoxuan's appearance is indeed a little strange, let's go along and take a look." Ilya squinted, her little tail wagging her little tail.
Lu Fan also agreed, Xiao Xuan just now didn't look like she came to the shopping street to buy things normally, not to mention, did she have to cover herself so tightly when she bought things? It's like trying to prevent being discovered by acquaintances.
His instinct told him that it might not be that simple. The three of them looked at each other, nodded to each other, and followed.
At the corner of the shopping street, in the side alley next to a large life supermarket, Mo Xiaoxuan squatted on the ground, took out things from the iron frame next to her, and then put them into the canvas pocket on her chest.
"Xiaoxuan?" Chen Guangyao's voice sounded from behind her, she was startled, her little body trembled, and the canvas pocket in her hand fell to the ground with a thud.
Lu Fan looked at the contents of the canvas pocket: a bottle of milk in a glass bottle, a bag of crumpled bread edges, and a few loose eggs.
Seeing that it was Lu Fan and them standing behind her, Mo Xiaoxuan's face was a little pale and flustered, and she said slightly, "You guys...... How is it here? ”
"Ah, I just happened to pass by after school...... Compared to this, Xiaoxuan, what is this doing? ”
As soon as Chen Guangyao finished speaking, Lu Fan patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the huge metal shelf beside Xiao Xuan.
At the very top of the shelves is a line of large letters: These things are free to use, please leave them to those in need.
Chen Guangyao suddenly realized.
Outside many stores and supermarkets in Tokai City, there are relief shelves with food products that are a few days away from their expiration date.
These foods are no longer suitable for sale as commodities, because no one will buy them, so they are placed on the shelves outside for the homeless or those who are in difficulty.
Chen Guangyao's lips trembled, and he looked at Mo Xiaoxuan, who was squatting on the ground in disbelief, and said, "You...... Don't you ......?"
Has it reached the point where you need to pick up expired food to get by? He wanted to ask, but he couldn't.
For a young master like him, who grew up with a golden soup spoon in his mouth, the scene in front of him was too magical.
He glanced at the things scattered at Xiao Xuan's feet: the hard edges of the bread, the expired eggs and milk covered in stains, is this what people eat?!
Mo Xiaoxuan pursed her lips and lowered her head: "Yes, I'm sorry, I also know that these things will be more needed, but I just took a little bit, I'm sorry ......"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Chen Guangyao hurriedly waved his hand, "Why are you picking up relief supplies here, you have rarely been to this kind of place before......
Before he finished asking, Lu Fan patted his head lightly, and Lu Fan glanced at him.
