Chapter 148: Fan Lu's Past
Rolls-Royce drives on the road.
Chen Dong drove the car silently, and Long Lao sat in the co-pilot.
Kunlun hugged Fan Lu and sat in the back row, softly comforting.
Softly spoken, it was hard to imagine the bloodthirsty appearance of the thunder and anger that Kunlun showed just now.
Fan Lu curled up in Kunlun's arms, bursting into tears.
Xu was tired of crying, and there was no sound, just silently shedding tears.
And her hands were tightly gripping Kunlun's sleeves.
Long Lao saw this scene in the rearview mirror, and the corners of his mouth smiled.
"I'm not ashamed."
Chen Dong sneered and buckled the rearview mirror.
Then the front and rear baffles were pressed, completely separating the interior of the car into two worlds.
Long Lao raised his eyebrows: "It's not okay to see?" ”
"You're snooping on people's privacy." Chen Dong rolled his eyes, "You find an old lady in her seventies and eighties, I'll take a look at it from the side, should you be in the diaphragm?" ”
Long Lao smiled disdainfully: "The old slave always likes eighteen-year-olds. ”
made a joke calm down the two of them who suppressed their anger.
Long Lao restrained his smile, but turned to Chen Dong, patted Chen Dong's shoulder gently, and pointed to the back.
Obviously, he was asking how to treat Fan Lu in the future?
Chen Dong understood and smiled slightly: "She is my mother's goddaughter." ”
Long Lao nodded and didn't ask any more.
Back in town.
It was already three o'clock in the morning.
Chen Dong did not immediately return to the Tianmen Mountain Villa.
Instead, I found a late-night coffee shop nearby.
He really won't be estranged from Fan Lu, but there are some things that must be asked thoroughly now.
However, he still called his mother and reported that he was safe.
On the phone, when she heard that Fan Lu was found, Li Lan's tone was obviously relaxed, and she told her to go home as soon as possible.
Inside the coffee shop, quietly.
A few lights make the store a little dim.
It was already early in the morning, but there were still one or two people sitting in the corner, enjoying the quiet of the night, working silently with headphones.
Fan Lu's mood has calmed down a lot.
Holding a steaming cup of coffee, leaning against the corner.
At this time, her eyes were very red and swollen, and her pretty face was a little pale.
This scene made Chen Dong and the three of them feel distressed for a while.
To be honest, Fan Lu's appearance is not bad, although it is not as dusty as Gu Qingying's temperament and peerless appearance, but it can be regarded as beautiful and sunny.
Living together on weekdays, Fan Lu is also full of sunny smiles at all times.
But now, it is like a frosted eggplant, and his eyes are dark.
"Whew...... Thank you, Mr. Chen, Mr. Long and Brother Kunlun. ”
Finally, Fan Lu broke the silence on the table, and she squeezed out a smile: "If it weren't for you, I would have died today." ”
This death is not really death.
But it is more terrifying than death.
"You're our man, why thank you?" Chen Dong smiled slightly.
Fan Lu lowered her head, and then spoke slowly.
Chen Dong and the three of them also listened quietly.
It turned out that when Fan Lu was very young, because his father was a bad gambler and alcoholic, as soon as he lost money and got drunk, he beat his mother, and his mother couldn't bear it, abandoned Fan Lu, and ran away.
After her mother left, her father implicated all the sins on Fan Lu.
From childhood to adulthood, Fan Lu has lived in the shadow of her father, but she still has not given up her yearning for tomorrow, and she firmly believes that as long as she works hard, she can see the sunshine after all.
The reality did not live up to her efforts, her father gambled and drank badly, but there were well-wishers in the village who sponsored her to go to school, and when she was ten years old, the school selected athletes to train.
Fan Lu was lucky to be selected as a sanda athlete, and she worked hard step by step, like a snail, crawling up slowly but tenaciously.
When she became a city sanda athlete, she played several times and won the championship.
She believes that with hard work, there will be a better tomorrow.
But after her father became an athlete, her gambling became bigger and bigger, and she didn't pay off her debts once, and she was made a big fuss, which affected her and completely buried her career as an athlete, so she had no choice but to retire.
Fan Lu still didn't give up, she didn't have any skills, but she knew that she had a lot of strength, so she went to the construction site and worked hard to earn money to pay off her father's debts.
She has always been eager to change jobs, so she has a high-priced nanny resume in an agency.
Fortunately, she was picked by Chen Dong and finally left the construction site.
But within a few days of the happy days, there was news from my father that he owed a huge gambling debt again, and then there was a scene tonight.
After finishing speaking, Fan Lu's head lowered even more, her delicate body trembled, and a teardrop fell to the ground.
Chen Dong, Kunlun, and Long Lao were all stunned.
Fan Lu said very briefly, deliberately trying to hide the tragic pain, but they could still feel it from the words.
Helpless, painful, desperate, and even desperate to survive, but he was implicated by his father and fell back into darkness.
Chen Dong's eyes were flickering, and in a trance, he thought of the calluses on Fan Lu's hands when he first saw Fan Lu.
Fan Lu is about the same age as him, a girl, but she forced herself to be a man!
This...... How much tenacity should it be?
"Mr. Chen......" Fan Lu suddenly raised her head and looked at Chen Dong with teary eyes, her eyes full of fear.
Chen Dong smiled gently: "Let's go, let's go home, our mother has stewed soup at home and is waiting for us to go back." ”
Fan Lu's expression froze, and there was a "boom" in his head, and he hurriedly got up and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Chen, thank you, Mr. Chen, ......"
Chen Dong ignored it, motioned to Kunlun to support Fan Lu, and took the lead in walking out of the café with Long Lao.
Late night breeze.
Empty roads.
Chen Dong took a deep breath, spit out heavily, and smiled bitterly.
"They are all people in the dark, I just found out that I am much happier than Fan Lu, at least I can rely on my mother for my life and run to the light without any scruples, but Fan Lu is affected by her father, and she is about to see the light again and again, but she is dragged into the darkness."
"Life is full of variety." Elder Long also let out a long sigh.
After returning home.
It was already four o'clock in the morning.
What Chen Dong didn't expect was that his mother hadn't slept yet.
Instead, he sat in the living room and waited quietly.
Seeing Chen Dong and the others coming back, Li Lan was red-eyed, got up and swept past Chen Dong, ran to Fan Lu, and said worriedly: "Ouch, my daughter, you really scared your aunt to death today, it's okay, are you hurt?" ”
Seeing the injuries on Fan Lu's face and the red and swollen eyes, Li Lan looked up and down worriedly.
"It's okay aunt, Mr. Chen, they came in time and saved me." Although Fan Lu was laughing, the tears in her eyes still couldn't help but slide.
"Don't cry, children don't cry."
Li Lan wiped away her tears for Fan Lu, hugged Fan Lu, and then took Fan Lu's hand and walked to the restaurant: "Auntie made soup, it's still hot, drink a little to suppress the shock, girl, Auntie is really frightened today, if something happens to you, how can Auntie live." ”
Chen Dong froze in place and muttered, "Long Lao, Kunlun, how do I feel that I have become an outsider?" ”
Kunlun and Long Lao looked at each other and smiled.
Didn't wait for a response.
"No matter, let's take a sip of soup, let me tell you, my mother's stewed soup is the best."
Chen Dong stretched his waist and walked to the restaurant with a smile: "Mom, bring me a bowl too." ”
