"Duoduo, I found Uncle De." Zhang Youze's excited voice came from the phone, "He is in the bamboo forest in the western suburbs, you..."
"Ju Zhang, can Uncle De really let Brother Yu come out? I need an accurate analysis," I held the phone nervously, "He is not engaged in politics, and he is not engaged in business. What is the purpose of coming to Philadelphia this time? Before.
Did everything Jin Lianzi do to Brother Yu mean?"
The voice on the phone was silent for a while, and I heard Zhang Youze say: "Duoduo, are you doubting me?"
I didn't expect Zhang Youze to be so sensitive. He heard between the lines of my words and simply opened the door to speak frankly: "Director Zhang, Brother Yu is locked up now. You and I both know that this time is not trivial. Wei Liang is still lying in the hospital. Han
The literary giants are all working hard, so I have to be more cautious. If you don't want to help me, it doesn't matter, I can find a way on my own."
I can't cause any more trouble. I have to be careful at all times.
"I completely understand your concerns. After all, I did lie to you before, but I am no longer working in the organization. The reason why I help you is because of my true thoughts. I am not allowed to disclose Uncle De's affairs to you.
Too many, Xia Haoyu is his disciple, it is impossible for him to watch something happen to him. I asked around, Uncle De likes to taste tea and studies tea ceremony in the bamboo forest. Although it is not easy to get close, we still have to give it a try." Zhang Youze said firmly.
.
In this way, everything that happened in Philadelphia before, whether it was the gold chain or the incident in the bar, Zhang Youze was not ordered by Uncle De. Who was it? Chen Luoluo's father? Or someone else?
"Thank you for helping me," I tried to keep my tone calm. "How is Brother Yu in there? Are you suffering?"
"Duoduo, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Nothing will happen to Xia Haoyu inside," Zhang Youze replied to me, "Every evening, Uncle De will drink tea under the pavilion outside the door. Duoduo, the decision is up to you.
"
I also know that I can choose one of the choices Chen Luoluo mentioned and the choice in front of me, but no one tells me which one is the right choice. I can't tell Han Wenhao or ask Zhang Youze. The only one who can make the decision is me.
Own.
And my man is now in prison, but I don't know how to rescue him. If I can get him out, I will do whatever I am asked to do. I am just afraid that I will cause more trouble and annoy others.
"Zhang Bureau, let me ask you one last question. Before this, who was responsible for the conflict between you and Brother Yu?" I knew that this question was not asked at the right time, and I also understood that Zhang Youze might not really tell you.
Me, but I know that this may be the only way for me to judge, "You don't have to tell me directly, just answer me, yes or no."
"Duoduo, don't know so much, it won't be good for you." Zhang Youze advised me.
"Is he Chen Luoluo's father?" I asked back. I also wanted to know nothing, and I also wanted to be the inexperienced Lin Duoduo from before, but is it possible? Facts have proved that it is not possible at all.
"No." Zhang Youze answered me.
So, there is someone else behind all this, who could it be? If it’s not Uncle De, or Chen Luoluo’s father, who could it be?
"Zhang Ju, I believe you for the last time," I felt my voice trembling. "Give me your address in the western suburbs, and I will go there alone."
"Duoduo, you don't know Uncle De. His character is unstable. If you go alone, you may be in danger..." Zhang Youze said nervously: "I will go with you. After all, I am also Ning's consultant.
Even if he looks out for Ning Guofa's face, he won't do anything to me."
"Okay, send me the address first." I replied calmly.
I raised my head and looked out the window. Dark night had come, and gorgeous fireworks were burning in the sky, but I didn't know what my future would be like.
Zhang Youze sincerely helped me, and I couldn't hurt him, so I had to go alone.
That night, Wei Liang had an extremely uneasy sleep. Even though the doctor injected her with tranquillizers, her brows were still very deep. We once had a quarrel over a floral skirt, and we also had a quarrel over her choice. We were wearing the same clothes.
We were walking on campus wearing stylish clothes and shoes. At that time, we were still the best sisters, but now...she hates me to the core.
But I don’t regret it. We make different choices every moment. Although there are bumps along the way, most of the time, I am still happy. The only thing that I can’t let go of is that I hurt Wei Liang and hurt everyone.
Brother Yu.
If I could have a chance to live my life over again, I hope that Wei Liang and I, still office workers living in an apartment, would never encounter this.
If you ask me if I love Brother Yu, I will say yes without hesitation, but I also understand that neither he nor I can hold on. There will always be a life between us, and it is impossible to pretend that nothing has happened. I
The only thing that can make up for it is to use my life in exchange for his.
If Uncle De cares about my life.
Turning around, I looked at a small mirror in the hospital bathroom, at the girl with a clean face, and at the eyes that were no longer clear. I pulled my collar, took out the lipstick in my pocket, and put on a light
Then he turned around and walked towards the door.
"Is Miss Lin going out for something? It's so early." The little nurse saw me and asked.
I nodded slightly, turned and walked towards the stairs.
When you go to see Uncle De, you must at least dress neatly. This is what my father told me. When meeting elders, you must at least be polite. This is the most basic respect. Now I have dressed neatly, but unfortunately, it is still raining in Philadelphia.
This year has been a bit special, except that spring has arrived quietly.
I got into the taxi and directly reported the location of the bamboo forest in the western suburbs. The driver glanced at me, but his eyes didn't mean anything. I smiled in the mirror. Even if it cost me my life, I would still fight for the 10%.
Hope and work hard.
Along the way, Xia Haoyu's face appeared repeatedly in my mind. I often thought, if my life had never met him, would it be different? But that kind of life would be what I want.
Of?
The answer is obvious. I have never regretted meeting Xia Haoyu in my life.
An hour later, the taxi stopped outside the bamboo forest in the western suburbs. I gave the driver an old man's head and walked towards the bamboo forest.
The rain soaked the way in. I heard my footsteps in the bamboo forest and thought about it. This place is quiet and remote but has a unique flavor. It is indeed a good place to live in seclusion. It's just that such a large bamboo forest will be bought. Uncle De
, it’s really a big deal. I muttered and walked forward. After walking for a while, I saw the words "Do not disturb others" engraved on the stone carving at the door.
I thought silently in my heart, I am not an idle person, I am not an idle person, I raised my feet and walked towards the door. As soon as I took a step, I heard the sound of the siren.
Within five minutes, there were several men in Tang suits standing in front of me. The one standing at the front was an old man in his fifties with gray hair. When I got excited, I shouted: "Uncle De!
"
The old man's face was stunned, and he waved his hand and said, "I'm not Uncle De, I'm Uncle De's housekeeper. Little girl, we're here to thank guests behind closed doors. You can go back."
As soon as the housekeeper said that, don't turn around and leave. I felt anxious and said, "I'm looking for Uncle De for help. Please let me in!"
The old housekeeper turned to look at me, laughed immediately, and said: "There are so many people in need of life-saving at this time, how can I save them one by one?"
"I am Brother Yu's woman. I am here just to ask Uncle De to save him!" I took a sharp breath and said loudly.
The butler's relentless pace finally stopped, turned to look at me, sighed and said, "Haoyu?"
I nodded affirmatively and said: "Now Brother Yu has been framed, and the procuratorate wants to charge him with intentional homicide. Not only that, but it is also the most serious crime of intentional homicide. In serious cases, he may be sentenced to death. Please look at it, Uncle De."
Brother Yu saved him out of friendship with him."
"I've heard about Haoyu, but he insisted on leaving Uncle De five years ago. Now...it's useless for you to kneel down. If Uncle De says he won't see you, I can't let you in either." The old housekeeper said with concern.
: "It's cold on the ground, so let's get up."
There was a slight chill on my knees, and the rain flowed down my trousers to my skin, but I couldn't care so much. "Please, let me see Uncle De. I just want to do my best, I..."
The old housekeeper looked at me unbearably and said, "Then you wait here, I'll go in and take a look. Haoyu is a rare good boy I see, but his personality is a bit stubborn, like his mother..."
"Thank you, thank you!" I leaned down to thank the housekeeper, as if I saw a glimmer of hope. If Uncle De really has the slightest affection for Auntie as I thought, then Brother Yu will definitely be rescued.
.
A gust of cold wind blew, and the umbrella in my hand shook. I couldn't help but shudder. Looking at the empty stone road, I just hoped that the housekeeper could bring me good news. But after a while, the housekeeper still didn't show up.
, my legs were shaking with cold, which immediately made my teeth chatter.
I lowered my eyes helplessly. If this is my punishment, I am willing to bear it.
The sound of footsteps reached my ears. I raised my head and saw the old housekeeper walking in a hurry. I bit my lip, looked at the old housekeeper expectantly, and asked, "How is it? What does Uncle De say?"
"
The housekeeper sighed and said, "Uncle De is not in the bamboo forest, and I don't know where he went. Little girl, you'd better go back."
One sentence instantly sent me into an ice cellar. Just now I said I would go in and have a look, and now I said I was not in the bamboo forest. This was obviously a rejection of me. "Please write more about housekeeper, it doesn't matter, I will wait here, I..."
Before I finished speaking, a gust of wind blew over and blew the umbrella in my hand away. The raindrops hit my face. My whole body shivered with cold. I gritted my teeth and said, "It's okay. I'll wait here. I'll wait until
