Chapter 659: Fighting for Freedom
Li Ning was worried at first that the kidnapper leader would have a grudge against her because of this incident.
But the boss finished teaching the second child a lesson, and he cared about Xiao Mao, but he didn't even look at Li Ning.
"Big brother, I'm fine." Xiao Mao covered the wound and shook his head, and there was a small pool of undried blood under his feet.
"That's... I'm a doctor. Li Ning thought for a moment and hesitated to speak.
Hearing this, the leader of the kidnappers just fell on Li Ning's body, frowning and looking up and down, "I heard that you are very cooperative." ”
Li Ning knew that it must have been Xiao Mao who told him.
"I know I can't run, so I don't want to give it to you, and I don't want to get myself in trouble." Li Ning nodded, indicating his attitude.
"Not bad. Seems to be a smart man. The kidnapper leader snorted and nodded, "We are just asking for money, and when the matter is done, we will naturally let you go." But the premise is that you are honest, and we can be regarded as well water and not river water, but if you play with your heart and get into trouble, then I can only apologize. ”
The kidnapper's head squinted at Li Ning, and his tone was slightly threatening.
"Don't worry." Li Ning bowed his head lightly, and he reached a consensus with him.
The leader of the kidnappers nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered the people around him, "Bring some gauze or something, and let this doctor treat Xiao Mao's wounds." ”
"Xiao Mao, you can stay here tonight." The leader Xu was worried that the second child would come back to take revenge, so he ordered.
"I know, big brother." Xiao Mao nodded.
After seeing the leader leave with the others, Dawn breathed a sigh of relief.
When she shouted loudly, she was very conflicted in her heart, on the one hand, she was afraid that she would be hurt by that person, and on the other hand, she was very worried that if someone outside rushed in regardless of it, Li Ning would see her face at the moment......
In that case, Li Ning's existence would become a threat to them, and the probability of being torn off would be greatly doubled.
But thankfully, those people were wearing masks to cover their faces.
After a while, someone brought in a small medicine kit.
Li Ning just wanted to treat Xiao Mao's wound, but when he raised his hand, he remembered that he was tied.
"Why don't you loosen it for me for the time being, and then tie it up when the wound is treated. There were so many people out there that I couldn't run. Li Ning proposed.
This time, Xiao Mao did not hesitate and directly cut the strap on Li Ning's hand.
The moment his hands were also free, Li Ning suddenly felt relaxed.
"Thank you just now, if you hadn't helped me, I'm afraid I'd have ...... by now"
While Li Ning lowered his eyes to treat Xiao Mao's wounds, he sincerely thanked him.
"I just did what I thought was right, you don't have to be so polite."
Having said that, a slight smile flashed in Xiao Mao's eyes.
Once upon a time, he became a gangster in the eyes of others, the kind of person who would be deliberately avoided when he missed a stranger on the road.
But in Li Ning's gentle smile and kind and sincere thanks, Xiao Mao felt a sense of satisfaction that he had never had before.
He suddenly realized that being a good person, trying his best to do some good things, and being trusted and grateful by others is so comforting.
"The wound is a bit deep, so it's better to get a few stitches." After Li Ning cleaned the wound, he carefully examined it and frowned.
"Yes, you can just watch and deal with it." Xiao Mao nodded.
Li Ning saw that the medical kit was very well equipped, and there were some suture items that ordinary household medical kits did not have.
"Stitching is fine, but it will hurt if there is no anesthetic here, or I will give you a simple bandage first, and you can find a hospital to suture it up."
"It's okay, I can bear this little injury." Xiao Mao said disappreciatively.
Hearing this, Li Ning did not hesitate any longer, and began to stitch up the wound.
During this period, Xiao Mao's painful breathing worsened, but he endured it without making a sound.
"If you were given a chance to start over, what would you most like to do?" In order to divert Xiao Mao's attention, Li Ning asked casually.
After being silent for a few seconds, Xiao Mao sighed: "When I was a child, I wanted to be a pilot, and I also wanted to be a doctor. It feels like the pilot can fly freely in the sky, and it looks free. Being a doctor can help others, and it sounds decent to say that you are a doctor. ”
"Pilots are a good choice, but doctors forget it." Li Ning laughed at himself and continued: "There is a saying in our circle, which is called persuading people to study medicine. It's too hard to be a doctor. ”
"But I think you're fine. And being a doctor is great to be able to help others. Xiao Mao looked at Li Ning fixedly and said.
"That's when you only see the doctor's surface scenery, but you don't see us behind the scenes, tired and half-dead."
"Well, it's true that I'm not very good at suffering. And I didn't study well, so when I grew up, I didn't have any lofty ideals and ambitions, I just wanted to have a stable job, be able to make money to support myself steadily, and if possible, find another person and love each other until I grew old. ”
Xiao Mao's words seem to be full of expectations for the future.
But in the end, he couldn't help but sigh again, as if he felt that he would not be able to fulfill those wishes in his life.
"Actually... You're still young, and if you stop in time, there's a chance to start over. Although you may not be able to do this, the future will be as happy as you expect, but at least when you are old, you will not have regrets in your heart. ”
Li Ning said this, not only to win over Xiao Mao, but also to see that he was not heinous, so he hoped that he could have a chance to start from the heart.
But Xiao Mao sighed and shook his head, "Wherever I go, they will find me." ”
Li Ning's lips moved, but he hesitated for a moment before swallowing back the words on his lips.
"What do you want to say?" Xiao Mao saw Li Ning's desire to speak and stopped.
Li Ning lowered his eyes, the movements in his hands did not stop, and he hesitated for a moment before he spoke again, but he deliberately lowered his voice.
"I just want to say that as long as you put your mind to it, there's always something to do. People can't live a lifetime under the control of others, they always have to fight for something for themselves, so that they can live in vain. ”
"It's not worth this life." Xiao Mao repeated thoughtfully.
"Okay, don't do strenuous movements these days, and it's best not to get wet. Change the medicine every other day, and the stitches can be removed in about a week. After Li Ning finished speaking, he put away the medical kit.
Xiao Mao put on his coat, "Thank you." ”
"Help each other." Li Ning smiled and shook his head.
The night is getting darker.
Li Ning couldn't help but feel sleepy, wrapped in a military cotton coat and shrunk in a sheltered place, a little drowsy.
"You sleep, I'll be here tonight, the second brother shouldn't come."
