Verse 66
After speaking, when he walked next to Nie Zhao, his footsteps suddenly squatted down, the corners of his mouth hooked, looking at Nie Zhao's trembling eyelashes, and his palm exerted force, overturning the entire wooden table in front of her towards her.
After only two bites of hot seafood noodles one night, all the seafood noodles were turned onto her white cotton jacket.
The porcelain bowl fell to the ground and shattered with a click.
Nie Zhao consciously stood up and stepped back, and the stool under his buttocks also fell to the ground with a violent noise.
Ma Quan did all this before he strode out of the store, leaving only Nie Zhao, who had been watered, and the customers next to him, who looked at each other, and the boss who didn't know what was going on and came out in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
Nie Zhao stood next to him and pursed his lips without saying a word, letting a lump of noodles on his body smash down his clothes, pinching a tissue and wiping his clothes like a cup of water, his hair was splashed with some soup, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Seeing this, Zhao Rui immediately walked over and apologized to the boss by the way: "Bad thoughts, bad thoughts, my friend, he ...... I'm sorry, I'm going to sweep it, I'm going to sweep it, I'm going to pay for this. ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly went to the door to get a broom to dispose of the leftovers, wiped the table and stools, and left Nie Zhao standing beside him in embarrassment, with a cold expression on his face.
Zhao Rui looked at Nie Zhao with his head down and wiping his clothes with a tissue, touched the tip of his nose and asked, "Do you still want to eat?" I check out. ”
"What do you think?"
Nie Zhao glanced at him, said in a low and cold voice, turned around and was about to leave the small restaurant, it was really unlucky, he could still meet him when he came so far to eat.
Thinking of something in his mind, he suddenly stopped, and sat opposite the table where Zhao Rui was waiting for dinner, Nie Zhao raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did Ma Quan say before that he had a blood feud with Jin Zhuoqi?" ”
"Jin Zhuoqi, what's wrong with him?"
Zhao Rui was stunned for a moment and asked her, "Do you know that Jin Zhuoqi owed usury before?" ”
It was to operate on her mother.
Nie Zhao nodded: "But I don't know how he returned it." ”
Either he found his biological parents or borrowed from friends, who seemed to be able to fill in the gap.
"The interest of a loan shark is several thousand a day, and he borrows a lot, and even if he repays most of it, the interest is a snowball that is getting bigger and bigger, and it is impossible to fill it unless someone really has the financial resources."
"Have you ever heard of Huo Chengdu's name?"
Nie Zhao frowned and asked, "Who is this?" His own father? ”
If he could, Nie Zhao didn't really want to ask Zhaorui about Jin Zhuoqi, maybe if he asked Fu Kun, his answer would be more appropriate, but Fu Kun, the dog who obeyed Jin Zhuoqi's words, wouldn't tell him anything that Jin Zhuoqi didn't want people to know.
"No, a very rich businessman, Jin Zhuoqi can speculate in stocks was taught by him, he has been in the red light district of London since he was a child, he is ruthless, and he is also very far-sighted, for him these are just small money."
"But he is a person who will never help Pingbai, and if he wants him to say something, he will have to pay a huge price, and I don't know how Jin Zhuoqi met him, but the condition he made was to let Jin Zhuoqi help him ask for debts."
Want to be in debt?
Nie Zhao's brows furrowed even tighter: "What does it mean to ask for debts?" ”
Zhao Rui chuckled: "The shopping mall is like a battlefield, Huo Chengju's kind of people have lived in that kind of place since they were children, and who knows if the money in their hands is clean?" ”
"There was a casino here, and I don't know if it was open or someone he knew."
"Jin Zhuoqi agreed to Huo Chengdu's request to go to Ma Quan's house to ask for gambling debts, but at that time, Ma Quan's father ran to Vietnam because he could not be chopped off, Ma Quan's grandmother knew about it and said that she would help him pay it back, she felt that it was because her son was afraid of these people that he did not dare to come back, she wanted her son to go home, but how could the old man pay back that little pension every month, Ma Quan did not know about this at first."
"Later, my grandmother died, and I fainted in the snow and froze to death at the door of my house, and the old man was not good at the bones, so he ran out of breath after a while, and Ma Quan felt that Jin Zhuoqi had done something in their house that day, after all, his grandmother had always been in good health and would not faint suddenly."
Nie Zhao's brows furrowed more and more, so he didn't even find out the cause of death himself, so he counted this matter on Jin Zhuoqi's head? Why?
Why can't he find his gambling father, so he gets angry with others?
Zhao Rui continued to say in an orderly manner: "Otherwise, what do you think that Jiang Hang is for? It's just to help him collect debts, Jin Zhuoqi knows how to pick himself clean, and he won't leave a trace of handle for others. ”
Nie Zhao's mind suddenly felt a little messy.
Jiang Hang is not only his companion, he is willing to let Jiang Hang follow, it is to let Jiang Hang do that kind of thing, no wonder Jiang Hang looks peaceful, but he is paranoid and gloomy in his bones.
He also knew very well why Jin Zhuoqi asked him to do that, and why was he willing to help?
It is not difficult to guess that Jiang Xuan's desire to learn boxing may be because he encountered some trouble, and because of this trouble, he was taken advantage of by Jin Zhuoqi.
Nie Zhao suddenly understood what Lu Xiang said, his eyes were very indifferent, indifferent to the extreme.
He is strategic, calculating all those who have nothing to do with him, as if he were standing at the top of the pyramid, looking down on all those who are suffering in difficult situations.
He was born superior.
The three fresh noodles are packed.
Zhao Rui carried the dinner, and before leaving, he looked at Nie Zhao, who was still thinking about something, and asked her with a slight raised eyebrow.
"Are you completely unaware?"
"Didn't Jin Zhuoqi tell you? Shouldn't you, aren't you very good friends with Lu Xiang? ”
Nie Zhao suddenly raised his head to look at him, a little unable to keep up, and his brain began to go blank.
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Rui may feel a little ridiculous.
"Nie Zhao, don't calculate Jin Zhuoqi."
"You can't play with him."
"Your friend, Lu Xiang, her father was also a member of the casino who owed a huge loan at that time, and their house was visited by Jin Zhuoqi himself."
Zhao Rui looked at Nie Zhao's completely expressionless appearance, and his smile became stronger and stronger: "And her father is often drunk and domestic violence, Lu Xiang should be at home at the time, what do you think Jin Zhuoqi will see?" ”
Nie Zhao suddenly understood that what Lu Xiang said that day might not have been bullied by Bu Jia at school, after all, Jin Zhuoqi was from Nanlin, she was referring to this matter, and because of this, she felt that Jin Zhuoqi was not a good person from beginning to end.
Looking at the back of Zhaorui leaving, Nie Zhao's lips were smoothed, his head lowered and touched the mobile phone in his pocket, his eyes were a little cold and sent Jin Zhuoqi a WeChat question.
[Do you know about Lu Xiang? Why didn't you tell me? 】
After receiving Jin Zhuoqi's reply in time, Nie Zhao sent Lu Xiang another WeChat message, asking if she had returned home.
[Not yet.] 】
[I'll go to your house to find you.] 】
Lu Xiang replied: [Where are you now? 】
[Bluestone Road. 】
[Then come here, I was going to go to the supermarket to buy something, haven't you eaten my food yet?] 】
Nie Zhao was a little surprised: [You can also cook? 】
Nie Zhao gave himself the next instant noodle at most.
Lu Xiang: [Of course, I'll show you my hands later.] 】
Nie Zhao: [Okay, I'll go now.] 】
***
In fact, Nie Zhao was already full, but he was a little looking forward to Lu Xiang's cooking, and when he arrived at their door, Nie Zhao stood outside the door and pressed the doorbell.
Their house is in an alley, and there are quite a few small bungalows, and the distance between the two houses is very small, and the narrow road can only pass two people at a time.
I kept staring at the house number, and walked for about five minutes to the door of their house, and the gate was a little rusty, very old.
Standing at the door and ringing the doorbell, Lu Xiang opened the door for her two or three minutes later, stood at the door and poked his head out, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "Come in quickly, this is like your first time coming to my house." ”
Only then did Nie Zhao see Lu Xiang's head, which was wrapped in a ball of white gauze, and he looked very pale.
"What's wrong with your head? Did your dad beat you? She blurted out unconsciously.
Lu Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head in a daze.
"I just woke up in the morning in a daze and hit the wall."
Nie Zhao was silent for a while, and then sighed.
I followed her upstairs and into the living room, and tilted my head to look at it again: "Your dad is not at home?" ”
Lu Xiang was busy beating eggs in the kitchen, coping with it and saying, "Well, I went out early in the morning, let's go to work." ”
After speaking, she tilted her head and asked Nie Zhao expectantly: "Do you like to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes or scrambled eggs with beans?" ”
Nie Zhao stood next to her and said, "Tomato, what can I do?" ”
Lu Xiang waved his hand hurriedly and said, "Go to the living room and sit, and you can eat when I'm done." ”
Nie Zhao tilted his head to look at her, and finally nodded and went to sit in the living room.
She can't help, maybe she will help more and more.
The sofas and tables in the living room look very old, the degree of newness here is almost the same as that of Jin Zhuoqi's tube building, and the lighting in the living room is also very dim, perhaps the camera shows that it is a retro style from the 80s.
Nie Zhao tilted his head and asked Lu Xiang loudly, "Lu Xiang, can I go to your room to have a look?" ”
Lu Xiang said: "Yes, there are a lot of little stars on the door, don't go into other rooms, no key, my dad doesn't like others to enter his room." ”
Nie Zhao looked at her busy back, and wanted to ask if her father had changed her wishes, if she didn't want to go home after college because of her father, and if her father had treated her badly recently.
Standing at the door, he entered Lu Xiang's room, glanced at it, and came out.
The inside is very simple, almost unobstructed, a bed, table, wardrobe, and the most in the whole room is books.
Nie Zhao was a little surprised when she saw that she had made a table of dishes, it was really too much, she should have told Lu Xiang just now that she had actually just eaten seafood noodles, and although she said that she hadn't finished it, she also filled her stomach.
"You've done so much, can we finish it?"
Lu Xiang counted them, crossed his fingers and gestured with her, bared his teeth and stuck out his tongue with a smile and said: "It's only eight dishes, if you can't finish eating, put them in the refrigerator, of course I will cook for you for the first time, of course, it will be a little more hearty, otherwise how can I let you know my superb cooking skills?" ”
Looking at her triumphant look, Nie Zhao couldn't help but nod again and again: "Okay, if you can't finish eating, pack it for me, and I'll put it in the refrigerator at home." ”
Lu Xiang stretched out an OK posture towards his eyes.
"By the way, I forgot to ask, what's wrong with your clothes? How is it dirty? ”
Nie Zhao glanced at his padded jacket and said casually: "The takeaway hit me." ”
"Lu Xiang."
Nie Zhao ate the meal, tasted each one, gave her a thumbs up, and said, "You can live in my rented house in the future, and I will give you the spare key in a while." ”
Lu Xiang was stunned again, looked at Nie Zhao's bulging cheeks, and grinned: "Okay, take all your good things." ”
"Take whatever you want, if you are short of money, tell me, and I will lend it to you."
Lu Xiang lowered his head and ate the rice in his mouth, and suddenly felt that his eyes were a little sore.
