Chapter 15: A dilemma

Evening.

The dappled afterglow of twilight illuminates Santo Domingue in the evening.

In the apartment of the super skyscraper H4, the neon light on the ceiling of the living room emits a blue ghostly glow.

Tang Yu sat on the main sofa in an extremely comfortable posture, his blazer casually draped over his shoulders, and a small half glass of brown-red whiskey was placed on the glass coffee table in front of him.

Gloria's ponytail was a little deeper under the blue light and shadow, even if she drank a few sips of wine, the whole person still looked restrained, compared to Tang Yu's comfortable posture, it looked like she was a guest.

The layout of her home has neither style nor taste, and is even a little messy, if she can, she would like to invite Tang Yu to a high-end restaurant, even if it costs a little, so that outsiders will not see the embarrassment of the family.

She had done a lot of dirty work outside, but she didn't feel anything wrong with mixing in with the hard-working crowd, and inviting guests to her home like she did today was like shining a stage spotlight on herself, which was uncomfortable.

Gloria couldn't hold her breath after all, Tang Yu sat on the sofa and didn't talk about the prosthetic body, nor did he say that he wanted to return the medical expenses or compensation, and just briefly talked about David's condition from beginning to end, which made her a little like pins and needles, so she asked with a reluctant smile.

"Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, the apartment is indeed a bit shabby"

"Are you waiting for someone?"

Tang Yu did not answer positively, but talked about his past.

"I've lived in an apartment like this before."

"I had nothing at the time, but luckily I met a good buddy, a true friend."

"Then something happened to my buddy, we were separated for a long, long time, so long that I almost forgot what he looked like, but fortunately he came back"

"Sometimes I'm tempted to change things, but the city tends to make you feel like you're not going to be able to help yourself"

"And now you have the opportunity to change something."

When Gloria heard Tang Yu's emotion, she thought it was the reunion of the other party's friends who had been separated for many years, so she felt a little emotional, but she didn't quite understand what kind of opportunity there was and what kind of things to change, so she said.

"You saved me and David, this matter itself has changed a lot, and now no matter what you ask, in fact, I have no room to refuse"

Gloria's expression revealed helplessness, poverty did not allow even one mistake in her life, just one mistake was enough to destroy this already fragile family.

She took the initiative to get up and go to the table in the room, took the stolen military-grade Sianweistan prosthetic, and held it in front of Tang Yu.

"Seriously, there's nothing left in this house other than it's worth a little money right now."

With that, Gloria took out another wad of banknotes from her body and placed them on top of the bag containing the prosthetic.

Tang Yu visually measured the thickness of the banknote, which was about 20,000 euros, and did not reach out to take it, but said in a deep voice.

"Put the money away, I'm not here to ask you for treatment"

"At the end of the day, your car accident with David is directly related to me"

At this time.

There was a sudden movement in the bedroom room.

David stood a little weakly in the bedroom doorway with his hands on the door frame, looking at his mother and strangers in the living room.

When Gloria saw David wake up, she immediately hid the prosthetic body in her hand behind her, and said in a little panic.

"David, are you awake, are you feeling better?"

David nodded, but his eyes kept falling on Tang Yu, with doubts and vigilance.

Gloria saw her son's doubts and quickly explained to David.

"This is Mr. Tang, and he is the one who arranged for us to be hospitalized at the Trauma Team Medical Center."

David's expression relaxed a little at this time, Tang Yu's figure gradually overlapped with the back of the memory of the car accident in his mind, and the person he saw at the last moment when he was about to fall into a coma that day was Tang Yu on the sofa.

David whispered to Tang Yu: "Thank you"

As if it wasn't enough, he added: "I will repay you later." ”

He is used to suffering and is not used to being favored, especially since the other party is still a member of Arasaka Company, and in his eyes, those people in Arasaka are all arrogant and look down on others.

And this life-saving grace, he and his mother must repay, but now they are so poor that they can't even afford to turn on the washing machine, and they can't come up with the money to repay this huge amount of money.

Moreover, he didn't know why he felt a terrible pain in his left side of his waist, just like the pain of cutting off his kidney in a dream, and if he hadn't woken up and found that there was no surgical wound, he would have really suspected that he had a kidney cut.

The pain and tiredness of waking up in a dream is really as heavy as the real experience, and it is unrelieving.

Gloria saw that David's attitude didn't seem to be right, knowing that his resistance and stubbornness to Arasaka were still strong and persistent, and wanted David to apologize well, but when she saw her son's weak expression, she gave up in her heart.

Gloria had no choice but to look at Tang Yu, and then said sincerely for David.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me, after all, David just woke up from a coma, and we are really grateful to Mr. Tang for your life-saving grace."

Just as Gloria apologized.

Suddenly.

The apartment door slammed open from the outside, and all three of them looked at the door in unison.

I saw a strong black man with a big waist and a round waist breaking in, wearing a golden plane head, wearing long-rimmed sunglasses, and his expression was not very friendly.

Next to her was a King Kong fierce girl in a hollow jacket, and standing at the back was a bearded man with thin arms and thin legs and sunglasses.

It wasn't until all three of them walked into the room that they finally walked into a tall masked girl wrapped in a crimson leather coat.

Gloria exclaimed.

"Mann?!"

When the black strong man who took the lead saw the prosthetic packaging bag and a stack of packages similar to banknotes hidden in Gloria's hand, as if he was going to give it to the 'noble young master' next to him, he asked coldly in a thick voice and in an unkind tone.

"I haven't answered the phone and disappeared, are you trying to give him the prosthetic body that was sold to me? Don't you know the consequences of being untrustworthy? ”

At this time, the tall red leather-clothed woman next to her covered her temples with one hand, stared at Tang Yu and said calmly.

"He doesn't have a prosthetic fitted and can't read any information"

Mann didn't say anything, still looking at Gloria coldly, if the other party didn't hand over Sianweistein today, it would definitely be absolutely inevitable to make a move.

Gloria hurriedly stood in front of Tang Yu and eagerly explained, "It's not what you think! This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Tang! The reason why it wasn't delivered was because David and I had a car accident yesterday! ”

Mann was still expressionless: "Then since you woke up, why didn't you answer the phone or come to me, I have already advanced the money to you"

Because he trusted Gloria, he put 30,000 euros into the other party's account in advance, but on the day he agreed to the transaction, he disappeared, which made him feel disappointed and deceived.

In the face of Mann's questioning, Gloria was in a dilemma and didn't know how to explain this matter, it wasn't that she didn't want to give things to Mann, but Tang Yu never agreed, but she couldn't return the 30,000 euros to Mann, because she really needed this money now!

Coupled with David watching all this from the side, she really didn't know how to explain this matter clearly, if David knew that he had stolen the prosthetic, it would make him even more unable to raise his head in front of his classmates!

"It's all my fault..."

Just as Gloria prayed that things would not make a big deal and was about to take care of all the problems alone, she heard a voice behind her.

"Gloria, it's okay with you"

"Mann, it's me who wants to talk to you about business"
