Hu Chi sucked in a cold breath, seemingly recalling the large and small wounds and dire condition on her body.
A few seconds later, he rembered the doctor’s response, his expression growing more complex.
"What are you dawdling for?" Zhou Zhicheng reprimanded, having waited long for a reply.
Hu Chi hurriedly said, "The doctor says it’s good enough to save her life, but her hand... definitely can’t be saved. She will have to live as a disabled person for the rest of her life."
But for them, at least she should be able to live to testify.
They’ve already seen online about the matter between Zhu Hong and Xia Ling; none of them expressed sympathy for the latter’s situation.
Through interrogation, it was learned that Fang Haiyang, the murderer, saw Xia Ling being interviewed online and mistakenly thought she was going to report him, so he returned to the community to silence her.
If they had arrived a little later, Xia Ling’s life might not have been saved.
Though none could say for certain if living like this for the rest of her life could be considered more fortunate.
...
Zhu Ping sat tensely on the sofa, gripping his phone. Ever since he sent the ssage, he remained in this state.
Afraid to miss the person’s reply.
Finally, after ten minutes, a ssage popped up.
The person agreed to et him.
Seeing this, Zhu Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past, he was most unwilling to et this person, but now knowing it might be the only way for his daughter to get better, his mindset completely changed.
He feared the person wouldn’t reply; otherwise, he would be unable to find them in the vast sea of people.
Excitedly, he flipped the phone to show Mu Yunchu.
The eting was set for tonight.
This was the ti given by the other party.
Mu Yunchu was not surprised at all.
Because the other party didn’t seem like the type to appear during the day.
She stood up, ready to leave first, as there was still so ti.
...
Gong Hong’s recent days have been exceptionally satisfying. It’s fair to say that in his past thirty-seven years, he hasn’t felt like this.
All of it is thanks to the mysterious man he t in the alley that night.
The things the man sold him were incredibly useful.
Thinking about this matter, he absentmindedly drifted off, the colorful images before him turning gray, accompanied by multiple complaints questioning his ancestry.
"Old B, what are you doing?"
"Gong Hong, you’re daydreaming during a match!?"
"Damn! You caused our team to be wiped out!"
...
As the curses gradually subsided, the sound of keyboards and mice being slamd erupted again.
"Damn it! Gong Hong, what are you doing? This was my promotion match."
"I don’t care, you’re covering the instant noodles tonight!"
Since it was his fault, Gong Hong didn’t refuse their ’extortion.’
Instead, he directly pulled out a pile of change from his pocket, tossed a fifty yuan bill onto the table.
"Alright, alright, it’s just instant noodles, what’s the big deal? Make sure to prepare a bowl for too. The rest, no need to return, just use it to buy drinks for the brothers."
One of them, grinning, took the money and ran to the counter.
Seeing his generosity, the rest gathered around.
These people were generally unemployed locals without much money, spending any free ti battling fiercely in the internet café.
So, their usual funds went to internet fees, barely affording als.
Let alone such a situation where soone takes out fifty yuan to treat everyone.
Instant noodles paired with iced black tea, definitely the high configuration for an overnight stay.
"Lao Hong, what’s up with you today, being so generous, did you strike it rich?" One person asked with a sly look, probing for details. "If you really struck it rich, don’t forget about us."
"That’s right, we’ve fought side by side in the canyon for years. Don’t forget us!"
Flattering words reached Gong Hong’s ears, causing his mouth to stretch to the back of his ears.
"Nothing like that, I just started dating a rich lady." He said.
Others, upon hearing this, were so shocked their eyes almost popped out.
"You started dating another one?"
"What about the long-legged one before? Did you break up?"
The long-legged one was Zhu ii from before.
They had a deep impression of this woman. The first ti they saw Gong Hong bring her, they thought she stepped out of a painting.
They were mainly too shocked to comprehend how a woman with such a figure and appearance could fancy soone like Gong Hong, a ’street wanderer.’
"Could it be she found out you were fooling around with other won, got angry, and dumped you? Hahaha."
This comnt triggered a round of laughter.
The laughter now had more genuine feelings.
Upon hearing them ntion Zhu ii, Gong Hong snorted disdainfully.
Almost as if he didn’t regard her as important.
"I was just having fun with her, found soone better, how could I not go for it?"
"But she can’t live without , do you believe it? Even if she knows I have a woman outside, she’ll still stick to like a plaster."
After all, the effect of that thing, Gong Hong already tested ahead of ti.
It’s a hundred tis more effective than those inexplicable small pills he bought online before.
As he spoke, affirming his words, a ssage flashed on his phone.
Looking at the userna—Adhesive Plaster, he confird it was Zhu ii.
Truth be told, he was recently sowhat annoyed with her.
But those beside him just stirred the atmosphere to this point. It seed like inviting Zhu ii out now would greatly satisfy his sense of vanity.
So he directly told her to et up tonight, using a commanding tone.
After sending, he didn’t forget to flaunt the conversation window, "See, I told you!"
"She can’t live without !"
...
At around nine in the evening, when Mu Yunchu went out again, she took Li Shang with her.
With such excitent, if she didn’t bring her, there would surely be a fuss when they returned.
Mu Yunchu walked slowly, Li Shang kept pace behind her on the left, occasionally asking questions.
"Boss, you think Zhu Hong staying at our place won’t cause any trouble?"
She didn’t follow Mu Yunchu to find Zhu Ping in the afternoon because Zhu Hong arrived.
In such situations, soone trustworthy needed to stay in the store.
As it turned out, Mu Yunchu hadn’t finished her work, and Zhu Hong refused to leave, so she could only temporarily stay in the vacant room.
After the renovation, there were many places to live in their store. Even if a few ghosts or monsters appeared, there would be room.
But Li Shang was still sowhat worried about this inexplicable ghost.
She already considered this place her ho completely.
"Hmm." Mu Yunchu responded, naturally conjuring Zhu Hong’s face in her mind and said, "Once she finishes what she wants to do, she’ll naturally leave."
The two t up with Zhu Ping, whose presence mainly served to help them confirm the person, to avoid identification errors.
When they looked at the shady man under the street lamp on the opposite road, Zhu Ping was so anxious his words were stuck.
"It’s him, it’s him!"
Yet, just as Mu Yunchu and the others took two steps forward, suddenly a man dashed out from the depths of the alley.
Originally, they wouldn’t have cared about this man’s presence.
But a silver flash appeared in his hand, and the next second, he sprinted forward, straight at Gong Hong, stabbing several tis without going away.
Everyone: !!!
