Chapter Thirteen The Forbidden Door III

It was raining continuously, and the sound of raindrops falling from the window into the broken tile basin had never been so clear as it was today.

Lazidao became quiet because of the rain.

Quietness is a good thing, but when everyone is quiet, the noise of one or two people will always attract attention.

Just when Ma Jingqian thought that the good time had arrived, and he was happily chewing peanuts, a handful of peanuts were suddenly thrown towards him from a distance.

"There's not a single good thing. All you meet are these bastards. What fun are you having!"

There is a middle-aged man living in the corner. He has always been taciturn since he came here, but today under such circumstances, he can't stand Jing Gan's behavior.

Everyone calls him Huo Sanye. Sheng'erwa had previously told Jingqian and Baiyi behind their backs about the background of that weird middle-aged man.

He was originally from Anding, and his specific name is unknown. He used to have a medium-sized restaurant in Anding, and his business was pretty solid.

Unfortunately, Master Xiguan Daoshi's restaurant was implicated in an operation to eradicate gangs, so he came here.

However, most people don't know much about the name Huo Sanye. Judging from his weird temper now, it seems that there are many things hidden in his heart.

Many times in his sleep, he seemed very irritable, mumbling and cursing, and his hands and feet seemed to be fighting with others.

His handful of peanuts was really unexpected by Jing Gan. Maybe he, like other business people, is also troubled by this incident.

Nowadays, Ma Jingqian is more tolerant. He just smiled at this sudden attack, but Ma Baiyi couldn't help but couldn't take it to heart. The person who was about to sleep suddenly jumped up from the broken board.

"Master Living, do you want to die? My brother, what if you try to move again?"

Perhaps Ma Baiyi's strong body frightened Mr. Huo, or maybe Mr. Huo's heart was not focused on this at all. He cast an angry look from the corner and then fell asleep as soon as he covered himself with the quilt.

Who doesn't have something on their mind? From here, Ma Jingqian also felt another feeling. They were on the same bed but their hearts were different. Harmony and understanding were ignored in thinking about the future.

When I got here, I became familiar with most of the businessmen, but this lively third master was always different from others. From the beginning until now, he probably couldn't speak more than five sentences.

At the beginning, Ma Jingqian also hoped that everyone could take care of each other and wanted to get to know Mr. Huo in his own way. However, many businessmen secretly advised him to talk as little as possible.

Today, this handful of peanuts caught Ma Jingqian's attention again. Afterwards, he looked at the dark corner and sneered.

At night, the rain outside gradually became lighter. When he woke up in a hazy state, he still heard the sighs of the people around him.

The first thing he did after getting up was to look at the corner. At this time, Huo Sanye had been sitting in front of the wall with an expressionless expression, as if he was thinking about something.

Most people fell asleep with tears in their eyes. Jing Gan slowly got up and walked to Mr. Huo. He put a handful of peanuts on the bedside and walked away.

"Do you still regret what happened during the day?"

Suddenly, Third Master Huo spoke, and Jing Gan was not surprised at all. He turned around slowly and said, "I haven't eaten anything all day long. It's important to have a full stomach!"

"Well." Perhaps because Jinggan's move made him feel guilty, he peeled off a peanut and threw it into his mouth, "You want to know why I am like this, right?"

Ma Jing was stunned when he did it. He thought he could slowly resolve the conflict, but he didn't expect that the living third master could completely see through his mind.

In this case, there is nothing to hide. Maybe the more hidden, the more careful people like Mr. Huo will be in dealing with each other in the future.

As soon as the opportunity to speak opened up, Ma Jingqian said bluntly: "Yes, I want to know, but more importantly, I want to tell you that people here are not easy. A good face may make the atmosphere more pleasant!"

"Hmph! You can also tell me about the children's family affairs. You think you are the only one who knows a lot, don't you?"

This inexplicable smell of gunpowder puzzled Ma Jingqian. Perhaps this was the reason why people here previously advised him not to communicate with Master Huo.

With tolerance, Ma Jingqian did not answer hastily, but smiled.

"Stop laughing, do you know how ugly your smile looks? Don't let anyone get close to me, I have no face to give you!"

The Third Master Huo didn't feel whether this upcoming attitude was friendly or not. His words were as cold as ever, leaving no room for concession.

And this happened to be the response that Ma Jingqian could predict. At this moment, he seemed to hear the struggle and hopelessness in Mr. Huo's heart. Perhaps to a large extent, his happiness was frozen in the unknown past.

Under such circumstances, Ma Jingqian promptly cut off communication, because if things continued like this, the result would be even more unfamiliar than before.

Tomorrow, which no one wants to see very much, is coming with the cold night. Due to the urgency for money and the helplessness of life, many people are rushing to the business field as usual.

The harvest of this day was very little, and they were even more panicked under the heavy rules.

Lazidao's business dropped a lot after the new announcement. They blamed the heavy rain, but no one knew the real reason.

That night, some people finally lost their composure. After complaining one after another, they had a delicious meal of wine and meat, then picked up their bags and left Lazidao.

The people left behind seemed to be anxiously awaiting the arrival of good news.

Seeing three or four businessmen in a row leaving with their families and families, Ma Baiyi became anxious. Although he didn't say anything, he deliberately sighed in front of Jing Gan several times.

"Brother, if you have any questions, just tell me. We can discuss our matters."

After muttering for a long time, Ma Baiyi also said what was on his mind, "How about we go back too? We can't get anything out of staying here. If my sister comes back, I won't be able to entertain her well."

Of course, it was just an excuse for the girl to return to her parents' home. Ma Jingqian could also see that this was just a euphemism for the elder brother. In fact, he felt a lot disappointed after those people left.

"Just be patient, brother! Look, there are still so many people who haven't left. Maybe something good will happen early tomorrow morning!"

"What you say makes sense, but I've been waiting for two days and there's nothing!" Baiyi picked at the calluses on his ankles but threw them away casually, "Why are you waiting? Let's see if you don't Whether you are impatient or a little happy, I don’t know what you are thinking!”

Ma Baiyi spoke louder, and the businessman sitting opposite also felt the same way, and said sarcastically: "Your brother just wants this to happen, and he was even more aggressive than before when he made the announcement. So happy!"

Even at this time, Ma Baiyi always believed in Jingqian, and he was so angry that he said, "Just put away your mess, don't pick on the relationship between our two brothers if you have nothing to do!"

But things happened after all. This is an indisputable fact. Ma Baiyi couldn't help but wonder when he saw Jing Qian being so calm, "Is there anything you can do? I think there are quite a lot of ghosts in your belly!"

"Actually, there is no way to do it. You are all thinking wrong!"
