Chapter 242: Bad Fate
Hearing the word "abandonment", Shen Hang frowned slightly, and remembered some unpleasant past events in his heart. He looked at the girl seriously, "So, you don't even know who your real parents are?" ”
The girl shook her head, a blank expression.
"Haven't you tried to find them?"
"Nope." The girl continued to shake her head, "They cruelly abandoned me, why should I look for them?" I don't know where to look. I've heard of parents who write their child's date of birth and name on a small card when they drop off their child. But when Aunt Dean picked me up, I was wrapped in a dirty, torn blanket and nothing else.
Later, I heard from the dean's aunt that the day she picked me up was an early morning in the autumn of 1983, the fog was thick, the air was humid, and the whole orphanage was shrouded in a layer of white light veil, like a fairyland, dreamy and ethereal. She followed the cry and found me lying at the door of the orphanage, so weak, so helpless, as if life would pass away at any moment. Aunt Dean thought that what happened that morning was a bit like a dream, so she named me Qiu Meng to commemorate my rebirth......"
As the girl recounted her life story, she couldn't help but think of the foggy scene: a middle-aged woman with a baby in her arms standing in the early morning mist, the sky and the earth were still sleeping, the street lights had not yet been extinguished, everything was so quiet and serene, only her thin but great figure loomed in the fog drifting in the wind.
If it is made into a movie, it will definitely be a touching shot, but for the little life saved in the story, what that scene brought to her was an unforgettable injury.
After a moment of silence, Shen Hang's questioning pulled the girl back to the cruel reality. "Qiu Meng, you said that these are to win my sympathy? Let me let you live? ”
"Huh?" The girl came back to her senses, and at the same time was shocked, "I, I'm just telling the truth." I didn't ......," she paused and explained aggrievedly, "I didn't lie, I didn't make up stories. You asked my name first, and I told you this......"
"I'm just casually talking, what are you nervous about?" Shen Hang smiled faintly, although there was no obvious change in his facial expression, his tone of voice was softer than before. "You just said that you are a recent graduate, which university are you studying?"
"It's not a university, it's a vocational and technical college." The girl sighed helplessly, "With a background and conditions like mine, it's already very good to have a scholar." ”
"And what are you studying?"
"Interior design. I just got my diploma last month. Originally, I came to R City to look for a job, but before I could find a job, I was ...... by your subordinates" Speaking of this, the girl's mood became sad again. She was well aware of her situation, and knew that showing weakness and begging for mercy was useless in the presence of these people.
The other party is a heinous gang of human traffickers, who does not even spare babies waiting to be fed and children in kindergarten, how can they show mercy to her, an adult woman. "What are you asking for? Where do I study and what does it matter to you? ”
"Why is it okay?" Shen Hang immediately explained, "Of course, I ask these questions to get to know you better. Only by fully understanding the characteristics of the product can I better price the product. ”
"Merchandise?" The girl opened her mouth in surprise, "You're too inhuman, aren't you?" In your eyes, are we living people like those commodities in the market that are clearly priced, and you are allowed to buy and sell? ”
Shen Hang shrugged his shoulders disapprenously, "There is also a market demand for human trafficking, otherwise how can my business be done?" Even if I don't do this, someone else will do it. As long as there is a market demand, similar transactions will continue to be banned. When the market really disappears, such behavior can disappear with it. ”
"Nonsense!" The girl snorted, stared into Shen Hang's eyes with blazing eyes, and said, "You really make excuses for yourself, you are obviously a promiscuous human trafficker, but you say that you are like a businessman." I just don't understand, why can't someone like you who has brains and leadership skills do something serious? ”
"You don't think it's serious, but I don't think it's a problem."
"How can it be okay? What you are doing is illegal, it is a crime! Once caught by the police, you will be put in prison without sentencing you to death. ”
"I know. So, I just don't get caught by the police. ”
"You're so confident. Do you think you've done so many bad things that the police can't catch you? ”
"Then give it a try." Shen Hang showed a slightly expectant expression, as if he was looking forward to such a strong opponent appearing beside him to add some excitement to his life. "I also want to know how long I can hold out and whose hands it will end up with."
The girl was speechless, but she somewhat understood why the man in front of her, who didn't look tough on the outside, had become the leader of this group of criminals, and why his subordinates were so in awe, because he had a crazy soul in his body.
After a while, Shen Hang stood up and said to the girl: "I should go, let's talk again when we have a chance in the future." ”
Hearing this, the girl's face suddenly changed. She struggled to sit up from the bed, and hurriedly stopped Shen Hang and said, "Wait, where are you going?" ”
"It's so late, of course I'm going home to sleep."
"But......" the girl hesitated for a moment, and asked in a panic, "what should I do if you are gone?" ”
"What do you mean?" Shen Hang was a little confused, looked at the girl and said, "Shouldn't you also rest?" ”
The girl looked at the door of the room with trepidation, as if some fierce beast was lurking outside the door, ready to break through the door and burst into the room. "I'm afraid you're leaving, and your two fellows are going to ...... again"
"Don't worry, what I have specially explained, borrow a hundred guts from them, and they will not dare not listen. But then again......" Shen Hang crossed his arms and asked half-jokingly, "I'm their boss, you're not afraid of me, but you're afraid of them, don't you take me seriously?" ”
The girl thought for a moment and replied matter-of-factly: "It's not that I'm not afraid of you, I just think that if you stay here, my situation will be a little safer." Although I know you are not a good person, I am sure that you will not hurt me as much as they do. ”
"Why do you believe me?" Shen Hang asked suspiciously.
"You just protected me." The girl squeezed out a bitter smile, feeling as if she had said something stupid.
