Coming out of the hospital, Zhang Xue walked in front with a heavy heart, Zhong Nuanyang thought that his mother was sad because of Aunt Liu Mei's misfortune, and took a few steps forward to hold her arm.

"Mom, now that medical skills have been improving, maybe there will be a way to cure Aunt Liu Mei's illness in a few days."

"Well," Zhang Xue looked at her daughter and barely squeezed out a smile: "You are also very tired today, let's go back to rest early, and my mother has to go back to work overtime in the afternoon." ”

Zhong Nuanyang nodded and followed his mother home. After eating at noon, Zhang Xue went to work, her stepfather took her sister to cram school, and Zhong Nuanyang was left at home alone, reviewing her homework.

The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted her train of thought in solving the problem, and Zhong Nuanyang had to put down the wrong question set first and rush out to answer the phone.

"Yangyang, it's you."

Zhong Nuanyang immediately heard the voice of Su Feng's mother on the other side, and couldn't help nodding into the microphone: "It's me, Auntie." ”

"Would you like to come out now? My uncle and I would like to ask you about Zhang Sheng, where do you live, and we will come to pick you up. ”

Zhong Nuanyang hesitated, told them the address, then changed his clothes and stood at the gate of the community waiting for them as agreed by phone.

Half an hour later, Bai Rui's car stopped next to Zhong Nuanyang, she drove over by herself, and Su Huaqiang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, saw Zhong Nuanyang standing at the door and watching, Bai Rui rolled down the window of her husband's side, and waved outside over him: "Yangyang, here, get in the car." ”

Zhong Nuanyang hurriedly trotted over, said hello and sat in the back row.

Bai Rui waited for Zhong Nuanyang to do a good job, and rushed out with one foot on the accelerator, and the two people in the car almost fell over.

"I'm sorry, Yangyang, my aunt hasn't driven a few times with her driver's license, there is something at the driver's house today, and your uncle hasn't sobered up until he drank last night."

Zhong Nuanyang nodded cautiously, gently supported the back of the front seat with his left hand, and deliberately changed into a wide coat that could cover his hands just now, and sure enough, Bai Rui and the others didn't see the bandages on their hands.

"Auntie, is Su Feng home?" Zhong Nuanyang suddenly thought of Bai Rui's words yesterday and asked with some curiosity.

"Well, I went home last night." Bai Rui said and glanced at the dissatisfied husband next to him: "He apologized to me as soon as he went back yesterday, and he won't do it again in the future." ”

Su Huaqiang snorted disdainfully beside him, and looked sideways at Zhong Nuanyang: "Yangyang is now a key class, right?" Have you decided which university you will go to in the future? ”

Zhong Nuanyang shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

"Don't worry, think about it slowly, if our Su Feng had half of you, it would be fine." Bai Rui said as he drove.

"Don't mention that kid, you'll get angry when you mention it." Su Huaqiang interrupted in a rough voice, and after speaking, he crossed his arms and looked ahead, and the atmosphere in the car dropped by two points at once.

Bai Rui pouted at Zhong Nuanyang in the rearview mirror, shook his head helplessly, and finally drove the car to the old factory where they used to live, and stopped in front of a dilapidated old house.

"You guys go in first, I'll find a place to park." Bai Rui pointed to a nondescript café next to the old house.

Su Huaqiang took Zhong Nuanyang out of the car and walked towards the café, and when he entered the door, he noticed the injury on Zhong Nuanyang's hand.

"What's wrong with your hand?"

"Oh, that ......" Zhong Nuanyang pulled his sleeve in a little panic: "Accidentally, I touched it." ”

Su Huaqiang sighed, didn't ask, helped her open the curtain, and let her go first.

As soon as the two of them sat in their seats and ordered a drink, Bai Rui arrived, followed by a 12 or 3-year-old boy.

"This is the kid I told you about, waiting for me in the parking lot." Bai Rui motioned for the child to sit opposite Su Huaqiang. Zhong Nuanyang moved his position and let him sit. He looked at Su Huaqiang, who had a majestic face, and was so frightened that he sat down and stopped looking up.

"Didn't you say you had something to tell me? Do you know Zhang Sheng? Bai Rui patted Su Huaqiang and asked him not to be so serious and scare the child.

The boy glanced at Zhong Nuanyang next to him, then at Su Huaqiang and Bai Rui on the other side, took the backpack behind him, took out a palm-sized, some years old golden Buddha shrine, put it on the table, and slowly pushed it in front of Bai Rui.

"This is what my brother asked me to give to you." He lowered his head and pursed his mouth after speaking, looking honest.

"What is this?" Su Huaqiang frowned and reached out to take it, but he didn't expect it to be heavy, he subconsciously glanced at his wife next to him: "Really." ”

Bai Rui also weighed it, and then exchanged glances with her husband: "Child, you are honest, where did this come from?" ”

"I don't know, my brother asked me to go to the station to give it to me, and said that I must hand it over to my aunt, so he said that it was to pay off the debt."

The waiter happened to bring the drink, Bai Rui took the two cups of juice on it and handed it to Zhong Nuanyang and the boy, pushing the dark espresso to her husband.

"Are you Zhang Sheng's younger brother? Why don't I remember that Zhang Sheng has a younger brother? Su Huaqiang rubbed his temples and drank a large sip of espresso, so bitter that his facial features were displaced.

"I'm not his own brother, or, that is, Brother Zhang Sheng, he has always taken care of me......" The boy pinched the bag of his backpack, and got up a little unnaturally as he spoke: "That, I delivered the thing, I ...... I'll go first......"

"Hey......" Before Bai Rui could react, the kid lowered his head and left quickly with his bag in his arms.

"Why did you run away?" Su Huaqiang stared at the boy's back suspiciously and ran away, only to see him disappear quickly when he came out of the café: "What's his name, did you ask?" ”

"It seems to be called Liu Qiang, who goes to school in the middle school next to him." Bai Rui looked at the Buddhist shrine in front of her in embarrassment, and glanced at her husband: "This...... What to do? ”

"What can I do, take it back first." Su Huaqiang's mobile phone rang just now, he motioned to Bai Rui, and went out to answer the phone by himself, leaving Zhong Nuanyang and his wife in the corner of the quiet café.

"Yangyang, do you also have a connection with Zhang Sheng? Did he tell you about lending money to his dad to pay off the debt? Bai Rui looked at Zhong Nuanyang, who was frowning and thinking about something, and asked softly.

"I don't know about the repayment, but he came to the school last year and called me yesterday." Zhong Nuanyang groaned for a moment and replied truthfully.

"I was looking for you yesterday too? Did you know that he was arrested by the police? Bai Rui's face was worried.

Zhong Nuanyang nodded: "I went to see Aunt Liu Mei today and heard about it." ”

"Oh." Bai Rui sighed with emotion: "I only found out about Liu Mei's affairs in the past two days, and his father and I just came out of the hospital just now,...... Liu Mei, it's really hard......"

Zhong Nuanyang didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh and quietly look at the drinks on the table in a daze.
