Chapter 17 Alive

 Just as he was lamenting that life was so uneventful, Meng Lang's cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was indeed Uncle Zhang.

He sighed helplessly and chose to answer.

"I've heard what Ma Qiao said. Are you crazy? You really used 500,000 yuan to speculate in stocks? Don't tell me that your father got this money. Where did you get so much money? Don't you?

Could it be that he borrowed a loan shark?"

"Uh...Uncle Zhang, calm down."

"I'm so calm! Come on and get me the money. You can't figure it out! Where did this money come from? Where did it go? Now! Now!"

"Didn't you just let me hit the wall?"

"I let you hit me, I didn't let you hit me with your wet brain!"

Meng Lang had a headache. If word of this incident spread to his family, there would be a lot of chaos. His father might have to chase him here with the Longquan sword heirloomed in his family.

At this point, the only option is strategic disguise.

"Uncle Zhang, you misunderstood. I am helping a friend to speculate. You also know that I can barely afford the rent. How can I have money to invest?"

"You're not fooling me, are you? Which friend? Why do I need you to help me speculate?" Lao Zhang is indeed not so easily fooled.

"A rich second-generation man who slept with me in college works at the China Securities Regulatory Commission. According to national regulations, he cannot open an account to trade stocks on his own."

"real?"

"Then do you think I can borrow a loan shark to speculate in stocks? Is that something a human being can do?"

"That's right. Although your kid is usually a bit quiet, you probably won't be able to do such a stupid thing."

"Uh... I still understand me."

"Okay, then I'll believe you for once, but if you guys are really crazy about investing money, you should get out quickly. Did you hear me?"

"Do not worry!"

I hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting over it.

He quickly left the securities company, muttering something under his breath before leaving.

"Quit? More than 10 million..."



March 22, 2018, 12 noon.

"Delayed Justice" has received an update as scheduled...

Two big words on the cover - "Alive"

【The first half of my life was unremarkable.

Going to school, graduating, working, experiencing the joys and sorrows of ordinary people, feeling the joys and sorrows of ordinary people.

Until that rainy night in March 2018, the shackles of fate strangled my waist...

At 10:15 in the evening, when I rejected an opportunity to fall, I rushed back to the rental house in the rain with extremely complicated emotions.

The devil takes action!

Everything went as I planned, but something went wrong at the last moment. When the opponent was defeated, he actually pulled out a pistol!

This caught me by surprise.

At the critical moment, by some strange combination of circumstances, I stood in front of Yan Weiwei.

Then there was a gunshot...I was paralyzed.

The bullet got stuck in the 4th and 5th intervertebral discs in my waist, compressing the nerve roots and causing damage to my lumbar spine, which made me completely lose consciousness in my lower body.

The murderer was brought to justice, but I can only spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair...



In the face of irrefutable evidence, Yuan Li confessed to his crime, but insisted that no one had instigated the crime and it was just for revenge against Lin Haitang.

Later we learned that although Yuan Li divorced his ex-wife, he still had an illegitimate son, Yuan Shu, who was studying in a beautiful country, and his sponsor was the Xu Group.

Yuan Li was eventually sentenced to life for attempted murder, causing disability, illegal possession of guns, intent to frame, and a criminal record.

The Xu Group is still on its own.

Later, I learned from Lin Haitang that the "Xu Gao divorce case" finally ended with Xu Jinsong's victory.

The reason was that a colleague named Han Li leaked her lawsuit information, and the other party suddenly produced evidence that the woman had cheated on her during marriage.

Everything was planned by Xu Jinsong, but when he knew it, it was too late, and he could only lament that the devil was so high.

But for me, these are just the topics of conversation after dinner beside the sickbed...

The outside world...seems to be getting further and further away from me...

The days of being paralyzed in bed are very difficult, a thousand times more difficult than ordinary people imagine. You cannot imagine the embarrassment and despair of needing help even to go to the toilet.

Living requires courage more than anything else.

Survival is nothing more than the judgment of others.



Except for my parents, Duan Xian often visits me. I think everyone should have at least one close friend like this. We have had many unremarkable but memorable times, no matter how different the situation is.

When I was lying down in boredom, I fell in love with buying lottery tickets.

Maybe you like the minuscule "miracle probability" in the lottery, or maybe you want to remind yourself not to give up that glimmer of hope?

I also wrote down the winning numbers on Fateful Night.

03,11,14,27,32,05,07.

I regard this set of numbers as my lucky numbers, hoping it will bring me good luck.

And in this lowest period of life, perhaps the most commendable thing is my fate as a woman...

Because three women appeared at the same time and said they were responsible for me.

One is Xiaoyu who said that he would take care of my daily life and provide for me in my old age...

Every time I think of her little face that earnestly said "I support you", I can't help but laugh out loud.

The other one is Lin Haitang. She explained to me what socialist humanitarian care is from a very professional perspective, and kept emphasizing that this was just to repay Xiaoyu for saving her life.

The last one is Yan Weiwei.

At the moment when I blocked the gun, all I thought about was not to let anything happen to the innocent people I involved.

Saving one person and killing another, wouldn't everything be back to square one?

The stab-proof suit I was wearing gave me some confidence, although in the end it proved to be completely useless against bullets...

But I didn't expect that this seemingly carefree woman turned out to be extremely stubborn. In order to repay the kindness of risking her life to save her, she actually asked me in a very righteous way if I wanted to be included in the Yan family tree.

Once, there was an opportunity to marry into a rich family... I still didn't agree after all.

The three women fulfilled their promise and took turns taking care of me in the wheelchair without any complaints.

But other people's guilt is not the reason for me to drag others down and enjoy everything with peace of mind.

So after enjoying it for three months, I left a suicide note thanking everyone and wishing for world peace, and then swallowed a whole bottle of sleeping pills...]

rash:"……"

He looked at the end of the story and then at the photo that came with the book as usual.

In the photo, he is sitting in a wheelchair, with the intellectual and beautiful Lin Haitang standing on the left, the heroic Yan Weiwei standing on the right, and Xiao Yu standing behind him and hugging his neck affectionately.

Everyone's smiles were warm and welcoming, like a happy family portrait.

Yes, I'm paralyzed, but what the heck is this feeling of being a winner in life?



And just as Meng Lang complained about this "update", on the other side of the ocean, a storm sweeping the world was quietly brewing...
