[Chapter 34]: Forgive yourself

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be quite narcissistic." Lu Xun looked her up and down and teased, "Do you think you are worth more than 60 million?" ”

"I..."

Li Xiaoning immediately stopped talking.

Her pretty face tensed, but she still couldn't help but blush.

Not to mention 60 million, even if she sells her whole person, it is not worth 1 million.

But she really can't think of what else the other party can look at in her family?

The only thing worth coveting is her pretty face......

In the past two years, many Hentai uncles have tempted her with profit and wanted to accept her as a "goddaughter".

Of course...... In the end, those bad uncles all knelt on the ground and cried and begged for mercy, while calling her "Mom".

"Don't think about it, this money is for you, to be precise, for your father."

Lu Xun waved his hand and said to her:

"Someone owes your dad 60 million, and then he pays it back. Well, you can understand it that way, you don't need to know the rest. ”

He didn't want to say much about the specific source of the money.

After all, the case was too involved, and it was not easy to turn the page.

He's out of the vortex, and he doesn't even want to mention it in the future!

"Okay, the money has been delivered, and then there will be nothing to do with me, you will act as if you have never seen me, and take your leave."

After finishing speaking, Lu Xun stood up and prepared to leave.

Li Xiaoning wanted to speak and stopped, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing that he had made up his mind, it was inconvenient to stop him.

Suddenly, the communicator on his wrist vibrated and seemed to have received a message.

She glanced down, was stunned at first, and then quickly got up and called Lu Xun:

"Wait, may I ask the person who entrusted you with the money...... Is it surnamed Lin? ”

Click~

Lu Xun's footsteps paused, and then slammed the half-opened door slammed shut.

He looked back at her, narrowing his eyes, a faint signal of danger in his gaze:

"Tell me, how do you know? Don't lie. ”

The old octopus has never been in contact with Li Zhongxian's family in his life.

He has been sending money anonymously, using someone else's account to send money to an old friend's savings card.

Li Xiaoning could never know the old octopus.

But she almost called out the name of the old octopus - Lin Sheng.

She knew that the 60 million was sent by the old octopus.

Do you know where the old octopus's money came from?

Did she understand the deal?

How much do you know? Who told her?

If he didn't figure out these things, Lu Xun would never be able to leave with confidence.

Because his own safety is at stake!

His identity is likely to be revealed!

"I..."

Li Xiaoning was stared at by Lu Xun, and her body instinctively gave birth to fear, a kind of trembling and horror from the depths of her soul!

This feeling is indescribable, it is like a little rabbit, suddenly encountering a 10,000-meter-long dragon, stared at by the terrifying dragon eyes. The dragon is magnificent, and it cannot be desecrated.

The other party just showed a wisp of hostility, which made her feel a sense of oppression at the level of life.

This feeling of being deprived of your life at any time is uncomfortable.

"It's... It's my dad, he asked me to ask you. ”

Li Xiaoning explained in a trembling voice, and said in a weak tone: "Are you angry?" If he says something wrong, please... Please don't blame him. ”

Your dad?

Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, and then reined in his aggressive edge.

Her dad was a poor man like his uncle, not a threat.

"Well, take me over and I'll talk to him." He thought about it and said to Li Xiaoning.

"Okay." The feeling of being targeted by the strong disappeared, and she breathed much easier.

She took Lu Xun to her father's hospital room.

Push open the door.

A very familiar rancid smell came to my face.

Inside is a layout similar to Lu Xun's home.

There are medical instruments around, and a "mummy" lies on the mechanical bed.

He was filled with tubes, some for excretion, some for oxygen, and some for heartbeat pacing......

It's terrible!

Lu Xun looked at the camera on the monitor on the side and raised his hand to say hello.

"Mr. Li, did your adoptive father tell you?" He asked.

Lines of text slowly appeared on the display screen -

[My adoptive father never mentioned him, but I vaguely guessed it a few years ago.]

For thirty years, there has been a mysterious person who has continued to send money to our adoptive father to support our family's life.

Every month, a sum of money will come into the account, sometimes thousands, occasionally tens of thousands, never broken.

It wasn't until three years ago that after my accident, the amount skyrocketed, and I started to send 200,000+ money every month, rain or shine. 】

"And how are you sure of him?" Lu Xun was puzzled.

Li Xiaoning, who was on the side, was also confused, and she asked:

"Dad, isn't that money a bonus from grandpa's use of an invention patent and technology when he was young?"

[Fart's dividends... After the death of my adoptive father, I specifically checked that he had no investment experience at all. After carefully calculating the time, I deduced the truth. β€”The text continues to emerge.

"This ......" Li Xiaoning was stunned, and it took a while to react, and he hurriedly asked, "Who is this gentleman surnamed Lin?" Why did he go out of his way to help our family? ”

Thirty years!

I paid half my life silently, but I refused to come and meet.

What kind of person is worthy of him?

What is his relationship with his own family?

Li Xiaoning's heart was full of questions.

[Things have to start when I was very young, that year, my brother had heart failure and was dying......] - the text on the display screen appeared one after another.

Li Zhong first told his daughter the story that had been sealed for many years.

After Li Xiaoning listened, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

She had never heard her elders mention these things.

"So... Grandpa adopted his father, and he was also entrusted by Mr. Lin? She looked incredulous.

It wasn't until she saw Lu Xun nodding that she accepted this reality.

[Young man, can you please do something? β€”β€”Li Zhongxian said suddenly.

"You speak first."

[You give him back the money, I have already received too much kindness from him, and I can't take this money anymore...... Sixty million, that's too much, I can't pay this favor. 】

"Huh?"

Lu Xun glared, almost didn't react: "Have you forgiven him?" ”

Father, mother, brother, all died from an operation, he doesn't hate the old octopus?

What happened to the charge for compensation?

[Forgiveness? Heh~ You overestimate me, I am not qualified to forgive him.

Do you know what the success rate of the toddler heart transplant was given by the hospital?

92% success rate, written in black and white.

My biological parents, knowing that there was an 8% chance that the surgery would fail, signed it.

Can Lin Sheng be blamed for this?

He is innocent, where am I qualified to forgive him?

You also underestimated Lin Sheng.

Do you think he really needs my forgiveness?

He was too proud to tolerate his own failures and refused to blame the 8% accident for three lives.

From beginning to end, it was he who could not forgive himself.

I am not eligible to accept his atonement.

Far from hating him, I am immensely grateful for his help over the past 30 years.

Oh, speaking of which, it's my biological parents that I should hate.

My brother had a misfortune, they were depressed, they committed suicide, and they didn't think about me at all.

If it weren't for Lin Sheng finding a home for me, tsk......

So...... I can't accept these 60 million, it's really too much, I can't afford it. 】

A long text.

made Lu Xun and Li Xiaoning silent.

People, paranoia is really scary.

Not afraid to fight with the sky, the earth, and people...... I am afraid that I will compete with myself, and I will not be able to let go of my feelings and be open-minded.

The end of self-internal friction is to be trapped in a cage for life.

That failed operation was an accident in the eyes of outsiders, but it was a sin in the eyes of the old octopus!

After the death of the child, the husband and wife became depressed and committed suicide one after another.

It seems to outsiders that it is also an accident, but for the old octopus, it is a crime on top of a crime!

Lu Xun is not very good to evaluate.

After all, he was not a client, and no one had ever died on his operating table.

……

"Well, I see what you mean."

Lu Xun nodded, looked at the camera, and said amazingly:

"But he's dead, and the 60 million he bought with his life."

"At the last moment of his life, he forgave himself ... I saw it with my own eyes. ”

"He never married, and he had no descendants. But he's also half of your adoptive father, so you should keep this money, even if you don't want to live, think about your daughter. ”

"That's all I want you to keep in your heart and take it to your grave."

With that, he turned and left the ward.

The matter is over, and the deceased is gone.

Whether it is an old octopus or Li Zhongxian, he will make a thorough cut with the past.

Bury old stories into the years and start a new chapter in life.
