Because of Ding Hu's sudden visit, Guan Yuming rarely did not accompany his daughter in the hospital that night, but personally cooked a dinner in the restaurant, calling Mo Youqian, Gu Ren and his friend Lin Baoyi.

The five of them got together and had a simple dinner, and it was ridiculous to say that today was Guan Yuming's 60th birthday, and he should have been happy, but everyone hung their heads and faces, and no one had any intention of celebrating him.

"Senior brother, Brother Hu, and Ah Ren, thank you very much for coming to the UK to see me."

Guan Yuming choked up with a wine glass and said: "Xiaoshi's matter is hard for everyone, I asked the doctor in the afternoon, and he said that Xiaoshi is still possible to recover, so I have a meal today, it should be regarded as celebrating my sixtieth birthday, and everyone will go back tomorrow." ”

Mo Youqian sighed and said with relief: "Senior brother, don't say that, I will help you find someone to ask about Xiaoshi's situation after I return to the United States, there are still cases of vegetative people waking up." ”

"Thank you, brother." Guan Yuming squeezed out a little smile.

Ding Hu and Lin Baoyi wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end they didn't say anything.

"Come to Ah Ren and have a drink."

Guan Yuming saw that everyone didn't speak, so he had to raise his wine glass and shout at Gu Ren: "The massage chair you gave me last time was very good, and I often use it when I am at home." ”

Gu Ren hurriedly got up and said, "Uncle Shi likes it." ”

"Brother Hu, we haven't seen each other for many years, it's rare to get together today, drink more, and when you go back to China, I'm afraid we won't have much chance to drink together again in the future."

"Senior brother, you too, let's have a drink together."

"Bao Yi thank you for taking care of me and Xiaoshi all these years, you have been taking care of the affairs of the restaurant, I am very relieved."

Guan Yuming toasted everyone, and drank it cup by cup, as if he wanted to use alcohol to numb his pain.

The people saw it in their hearts, but they didn't know how to comfort him.

I don't know how long it has been, Guan Yuming was drunk, and the dinner that was supposed to be a birthday banquet ended hastily.

Mo Youqian drank a little too much, and Gu Ren helped him upstairs to rest.

Ding Hu said to Lin Baoyi: "Xiaolin, you go back to rest first, I'll help Xiaoguan upstairs to rest." ”

"Then I'll clean up the table."

"No need, it's not too late to clean up tomorrow, I heard Xiaoguan say that you have been in the hospital for a day, and you are tired, go back early to rest and rest."

Lin Baoyi glanced at Guan Yuming, who was drunk on the table, and was worried, but seeing that Ding Hu insisted, she had to nod and agree to go back to rest.

……

Kwan Yuming's bedroom.

Guan Yuming, who was drunk, was helped by Ding Hu and fell on the bed.

Looking at Guan Yuming, who was lying on the bed and pretending to sleep, Ding Hu said: "Yuming, don't pretend, I know the amount of your wine best, half a bottle of liquor is not your amount at all." ”

"Brother Tiger still remembers." Guan Yuming, who pretended to be drunk, opened his eyes and smiled.

"Of course, remember, you're the best drinker in the whole team...... It's a pity that the third and fifth are them. ”

Speaking of this, Ding Hu sighed and said, "Forget it, don't mention these old things." Yuming, what did you mean by that sentence in the afternoon? ”

In the afternoon, when the two were communicating alone in the restaurant, Guan Yuming said, 'Let's have a good drink in the evening, I'm afraid we won't have a chance in the future.' ’

In his understanding of Guan Yuming, Ding Hu knew that he must have other ideas, so he deliberately sent Lin Baoyi away.

"The people at the police station have been checking for almost a week, and I don't know how many times I've been there, but they always push and shove!"

Speaking of this, Guan Yuming said in a low voice: "When our family met pirates on a boat, I failed to protect Xiaojun and Xiaoxiang, this is the most humiliating and painful thing in my life, I regret my incompetence!" The feeling of powerlessness that I can't even protect my own daughter has made me blame myself for more than ten years. ”

"When Cuifang had a difficult birth, I swore to her that I would definitely protect Xiaoshi in this life, grow up to get married and have children, but now Xiaoshi ...... She became vegetative, and I broke my promise to Cuifang. ”

"It's really ridiculous and pathetic, I used to be the first in all kinds of training in the Jun District, but I have become a cowardly and incompetent bastard who can't even protect my wife and daughter!"

Listening to Guan Yuming's sad and self-reproachful voice, Ding Hu couldn't help but think of his missing granddaughter, thinking of his accidentally losing his granddaughter, his daughter's painful eyes, and the smile of his granddaughter in his memory, became the saddest thing in his life.

It can be said that Ding Hu's sense of self-blame in his heart is no less than that of Guan Yuming, after all, Guan Yuming's wife and daughter are more because of accidents, while his granddaughter disappeared because of his carelessness.

Guan Yuming gritted his teeth, and the anger in his heart was uncontrollable and shouted: "The people at the police station can't count on it, I can only find a way to investigate by myself, no matter what price I pay, I will find the guy who caused Xiaoshi to become a vegetative person, let him feel what life is better than death!" ”

"Yuming, I can understand and understand your current mood......

Ding Hu lost his voice and said: "When I took my granddaughter out to play ten years ago, I accidentally lost her, so my daughter has not said a word to me for more than ten years, and she immigrated to the United States, so many years I have also been immersed in pain." ”

"Brother Tiger!" Guan Yuming was stunned.

"So I can understand your desire for revenge." Ding Hu wiped the tears from the corners of his mouth, and said in a choked voice: "Yuming, if you want to take revenge, I can help you, although my body is not as good as before, I will still exercise regularly, and my fighting ability has not been pulled down." ”

Guan Yuming hurriedly said: "No, Brother Hu, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”

"Yuming! Just let me help you! ”

Ding Hu shouted loudly: "In the past ten years, I have walked through I don't know how many places, I have checked I don't know how many volumes of files, but I have not been able to find the whereabouts of my granddaughter, how I hope to find even a trace of my granddaughter's whereabouts, but there has been no news, these years every night when I go to sleep, I can always dream of the afternoon of my granddaughter's disappearance, how I wish I could go back to ten years ago!" In the face of my daughter's crying, I wanted to die at that time, but I was afraid, I was afraid that my granddaughter was still alive and waiting for me somewhere to save her......"

Speaking of sadness, Ding Hu cried bitterly, he hadn't cried once in the past ten years, but his emotions such as self-blame, complaining, pain, and sadness were like a bone in his throat and kept strangling his neck, always reminding him that his granddaughter was lost because of him.

Looking at Ding Hu, who was once strong, and now crying loudly, Guan Yuming can understand his feelings, and at the same time understand why Ding Hu insists on helping himself, he wants to redeem himself through revenge.

Guan Yuming pondered for a long time, suddenly clenched the other party's wide palm, and said firmly: "Brother Tiger, I promise you!" Let's avenge Xiaoshi together! ”

"Okay, our brothers can finally fight side by side again!" Hearing that Guan Yuming agreed to help him, Ding Hu trembled excitedly.

"That's right, this time we're fighting side by side!"

Two old guys with gray hair, faces full of vicissitudes, and a combined age of more than one hundred and twenty years old, at this moment, their eyes are like torches, clenching each other's palms tightly, as if they have returned to the night of the expedition thirty years ago, and each other is as proud as today.
