Chapter 260: The Distance from Happiness

"I believe it, as long as you don't hurt me!" I raised my hands~, in fact, in my heart I didn't take their threat seriously at all, I concluded that they didn't have the guts.

But out of curiosity, I wanted to know what these two people were, and I didn't want to ruin their good lives because of this reckless behavior of young people.

He was very satisfied with my answer, and he was visibly relieved and yelled at me, "Hurry up and find a way to get me money!" His voice seemed to be vicious, but it was obviously strong and dry, and it was difficult to hide the tremor in his voice.

"Okay, I'll call my accountant right away and ask her to send the money here, can you?" I asked tentatively.

The two looked at each other as if they were asking for each other's opinions, as if they had not thought about the various situations that might arise beforehand, and they had to make decisions on the fly. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally reached an agreement with their eyes.

Another guy came up and handed me my phone.

"If you dare to play tricks, don't blame us for being rude, you'd better think clearly, you are a rich man, your life is expensive, we are poor, and our lives are worthless!" He warned me.

I nodded yes.

I dialed Xiaoyu's phone, it was the second half of the night, Xiaoyu was naturally already asleep, and the phone rang for a long time before she picked up the phone sleepily.

"Brother Asheng! What's going on at such a late hour? Xiaoyu asked.

"Xiaoyu, you get up now and go to the company's safe to get 500,000 cash and send it to me, I have an urgent need!" I tried to calm my tone, but I was actually calm, I just pretended to calm myself.

"Now?" Xiao Yu seemed a little unconvinced, and her tone was a little lazy when she had just woken up.

"Yes, right now!" I repeat.

"Brother Asheng, is there any urgency that you want 500,000 at such a late hour?" Getting the exact answer, Xiao Yu's tone sounded a lot more sober.

"Don't ask, you'll know when you come!"

Xiao Yu hesitated and hung up the phone.

One of them held a knife to my neck, and the other was walking around the room, and suddenly he saw the photo I had put on the kang head, which was the one with Anne Weilai.

Perhaps it was the photo that piqued his curiosity, or maybe he wanted to find a fork to distract himself from his nervousness. The young man picked up the photo, looked at it and asked in a deep voice, "Who are these two people?" ”

"It's my wife and my daughter!" I replied indifferently.

"Where are they?" He asked again.

I sighed and slowly spoke: "My wife, on the day I was about to propose to her, we encountered three gangsters blocking the road and robbing her, and my wife was killed by the gangsters in order to protect me!" I said with a darkened expression.

I didn't intend to hide it from him, I wanted them to know that what they were doing was no different from those gangsters, and I wanted to let them know how much harm they were doing to others.

Sure enough, the two of them suddenly froze when they heard what I said, and the man with the knife seemed to be unable to withstand the weight in his hand, and his whole arm trembled violently.

"Since you are not married, how can you have a daughter?" The man asked again.

"I adopted this girl, her parents abandoned her at my door, and just last year they came to pick her up!" My tone darkened.

Both fell silent.

"It's because my wife died, I lost my daughter, and I couldn't stay where I was anymore, that's why I'm here!"

"I tell you this just to let you know that people have to go through a lot of suffering in their lives, but as long as we have a choice, we are still lucky. There are thousands of paths in life, and there are dead ends

There is only one, you are still so young, there are still unlimited possibilities in the future, why choose such a path! ”

The two remained silent, but their breathing began to grow rapid as I spoke, and I knew that my words touched them.

"I'm afraid it's the first time I've done this kind of thing, and I'm not afraid of you when I promise to give you money, I dare to conclude that you don't dare to do anything to me at all!" I said and waved my hand to block the knife in front of me, and suddenly the knife fell to the ground with a thud.

The young man hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and I got up and got out of bed in the morning, slowly putting on my shoes.

The young man picked up the knife again, but when he saw that I was all right, I was wearing my shoes without even looking at him, and he was stunned, not knowing whether to continue to hold me hostage.

"Whatever your reasons for doing this, I'm willing to give you a chance. I have done a lot of wrong things in the past, and I have also been punished, in order to sign a project for the company, without the authorization of the president, I opened the safe and signed a check, but the villain took advantage of me and denounced me, so the company sent me to prison.

I was in it for three and a half years, and I almost died in prison, and the scar on my face you can see, it was caused by that accident, my abdomen was pierced by steel bars, and my stomach was punctured, and it has not healed until now! I know exactly what it's like, and I don't want you to experience that life or death as well. Listen to my advice, do something you like when you get the money, and don't repeat the mistakes of the past in the future! I sighed.

The two young men listened to me quietly, looked at each other, then turned to look at me, and after a few seconds of silence, suddenly they fell to their knees in front of me with a bang, and the knife in their hands fell to the ground again.

"I'm sorry, we were wrong!"

"I'm sorry!"

The two of them spoke in a slightly trembling tone and their voices were hoarse, and if it weren't for their sun hats and masks, I would probably be able to see their tears.

Their next words proved me right, and it was the first time they had done such a thing.

"The two of us are friends, my father is very seriously ill and urgently needs 500,000 surgery fees, I really can't do such a stupid thing, big brother I'm sorry!" The young man with the knife said to me.

"No, it was my idea, I don't blame him." The other person said.

"I've learned about your affairs, I think since you are so rich, you can generously give such a big benefit to the villagers here, you definitely don't care about the 500,000 we want, so I came up with this idea. I'm sorry, we were wrong, we can't be bad to you because of your kindness, in fact, we know that you are a good person......"

At this time, Xiaoyu pushed the door in, she was carrying a bag of money, and when she entered the door and saw this scene, she was suddenly stupid at the door.

"Brother Asheng...... This, what's going on! Xiao Yu's eyes were puzzled, but she was a smart girl, and when she saw the bright knife on the floor, and the messy room that had been turned upside down, combined with their outfits, she immediately understood.

She moved to my side vigilantly and called me again!

"Brother Asheng!"

I glanced at Xiaoyu, smiled at her and said, "It's okay! ”

After speaking, he took the bag in Xiaoyu's hand and threw it in front of the two of them and said: "Take the money and go, I'll give you a chance, remember my words, don't do such things in the future, you must know that life is very long, every step needs to be cautious, and if you make a mistake, you will regret it!" ”

Both of them looked up at me at the same time, and in the light of the light, I could finally see that their tears were shining.

"Thank you!" The two of them spoke almost in unison, and they actually kowtowed to me on the ground.

I turned around

Waving his hand, he sighed secretly and said, "Before I change my mind, let's go!" ”

The two glanced at each other, picked up the bag in front of them, and disappeared into the night.

"Brother Asheng! Do you want to call the police? Xiao Yu, who had been stunned for a long time, seemed to finally react and asked.

I sighed and said, "No need, I told them a chance!" ”

"But, 500,000 was given to them for nothing? They are burglars and do not deserve sympathy! Let them go, what if they go and harm others again? Xiaoyu was still puzzled and asked.

"No, it's their first and last time, I promise! They are still too young, everyone will make mistakes, it's just that the mistakes they make are bigger, and instead of letting their lives be completely ruined because of this incident, why not give them a chance! I said quietly.

"If someone was willing to give me a chance, why would I be so cautious!" I felt a little sad.

Xiaoyu looked at me with complicated eyes, probably guessing what I did wrong at the beginning that made me still haunted by it, but she finally didn't ask!

This little episode in life passed quietly like this, and no third person knew about it except for me and Xiaoyu.

In fact, I need to explain that I did not do this because I was already rich and did not care about the money, nor because I was not merciful in my heart. It comes from the hidden fear in my heart.

Since Anne's death and Wei Lai's departure, I feel as if I should live alone, because the facts have proven time and time again that every time I feel that I am about to be happy, I will suffer the merciless blow of fate, without exception.

Today, in the face of fate, my heart has long become fragile, although I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid of living miserably, I am afraid that the slightest carelessness will repeat the mistakes of the past. I carefully kept my distance from happiness, and the slightest sign made me extremely frightened.

Xiaoyu's look at me made me feel frightened, but fortunately, I had cut off this sign in time in my infancy, and Rao still made me feel scared.

Later, the company gradually became smooth, and the profits gradually became rich, which made me feel inexplicably panicked. I buy the seafood of the villagers at a high price, continue to invest in the construction of factories, and even build a breeding base at a large price, and then distribute it to the villagers free of charge, it seems that I am planning for the development of the company, but in fact, deep down I have the idea of dispersing the property.

I'm afraid that I'm too rich, I'm afraid I'm living too well, I'm afraid I'm going to go against the unpredictable arrangement of fate, I'm afraid I'm going to get retribution in the end......

I feel that this is the only way I can continue to live unharmed.

I don't want to be interviewed, I don't want to put myself in front of everyone, and I don't even want others to give too much information about me.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it's not that I don't like it, but I'm afraid, this fear has been deeply rooted in my heart, and I am afraid that the slightest negligence will cause me to lose peace. I am the only one who hides quietly in a corner where no one is around, refuses to be approached by anyone, and allows myself to exist alone in the world, so that I can live without trembling......

So I'm willing to give these two young people a chance, and I think I can probably save their lives this time, as I said to Xiaoyu, I'm sure they will never do this kind of thing again.

In fact, I also give myself a chance, I'm afraid of making things bigger, I'm afraid that I will fall into the eyes of the world because of any form, I'm afraid that the peace I have worked so hard to get will be broken again, I'm tired of wandering, I don't want to go anymore, I'm really tired!
