Sunlight filtered in through the cracks in the curtains and shone right on Lin Zheng's face.
After opening his eyes and looking at the time, Lin Zheng closed his eyes for a while before getting up and washing up.
Chen Shu and Chu Jingyao also got up, washed up quickly, and the three of them went to exercise together.
Before he could go home, Zhou Rui called and asked him to go to Jiangcheng to record songs this weekend.
"Senior sister, will you accompany me to Jiangcheng to record songs on the weekend?"
Lin Zheng hung up the phone and asked Chen Shu.
Chen Shu shook his head and said, "I can't go. There are student union activities this weekend."
"Can't you take a day off?"
Lin Zheng asked pitifully.
Chen Shu also said helplessly: "I am the person in charge of the event, how can I ask for leave?"
"Well, I have to go alone."
Lin Zheng said with some regret.
Chen Shu looked at Chu Jingyao beside him and suddenly said: "Why don't you let Yaoyao accompany you?"
"I'm not going... I have something to do..." Chu Jingyao seemed to be startled and quickly waved her hands.
"What's the matter with you?
I don’t trust Lin Zheng if he goes alone, so you just keep an eye on him for me.”
Chen Shudao.
But Chu Jingyao shook her head resolutely and said: "Senior sister, I really have something wrong and I can't leave."
"Then there's no way.
Yaoyao and I don't have time, so if you feel lonely, ask Sister Bing or Senior Sister Yunxi to accompany you."
Chen Shudao.
Lin Zheng shook his head and said: "The two of them can't leave, there are a lot of things going on.
Forget it, I’ll just go by myself.”
First they booked their tickets online, and then the three of them went home.
At noon, Lin Zheng met Xu Bing and went to Xiao Rui's house with condolences.
"Aunt Cao, I'm here to see you again."
Xu Bing knocked on the mottled iron door and walked into the yard.
At this time, Aunt Cao was boiling Chinese medicine under the big tree in the yard, probably for Xiao Rui's father.
"It's Miss Xu. Thank you for coming to see me and spending your money."
Aunt Cao saw what they were carrying and said gratefully.
"Auntie, you're welcome.
This is my boss Lin Zheng.
He heard about his uncle's situation and came here specially to visit."
Xu Bing introduced.
Aunt Cao looked at Lin Zheng and said somewhat suspiciously, "This young man knows how to treat a doctor?"
Lin Zheng smiled slightly and said, "I know a little bit.
Isn't uncle at home?"
"Here you are, I just found it yesterday."
Aunt Cao pointed to the locked door and sighed.
Lin Zheng said: "Aunt Cao, can I go and have a look?"
"Yes, you can, but you have to be careful.
My old man is delirious and crazy, please don't hurt you."
Aunt Cao hesitated and said.
Lin Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I have a solution.
Sister Bing, you can talk to Auntie outside first, I can go in by myself."
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
Xu Bing knew that Lin Zheng had something to talk to that crazy person alone. Although he was curious, he could only cooperate with him at this time.
Here Xu Bing took Aunt Cao and talked about their daily routine. Over there, Lin Zheng had already opened the door, walked in, and then closed the door again.
The windows in the room were covered with thick curtains, the light was a bit dark, and the smell was not good.
But Lin Zheng didn't notice anything and walked directly to the bed. At this time, an unkempt man was sitting on the bed, lost in thought. Even when Lin Zheng came in, he didn't even look at it.
"Uncle, do you still remember me?"
Lin Zheng walked closer and saw that Xiao Rui's father was indeed the beggar that night.
After hearing what Lin Zheng said, Xiao Rui's father raised his head in confusion, looked at Lin Zheng, and then lowered his head again. He didn't know whether he didn't remember or didn't want to talk.
"Uncle, I know what's going on in your heart."
Lin Zheng couldn't help but sigh when he thought of their family's tragedy.
Xiao Rui's father raised his head again, and the expression on his face finally changed: "What do you know?"
His voice was still hoarse, but his words were obviously much more normal.
Lin Zheng looked at the vicissitudes of the old man in front of him with a sympathetic look, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red: "Xiao Rui found me and wanted me to tell you the truth.
I was very conflicted at first, because the truth is cruel, and I don't want your family to suffer this kind of pain again, but now it seems that you already know, so I told you frankly."
"What did you say?
Xiaorui found you?
He... where is he?
Can I see him?"
Xiao Rui's father immediately grabbed Lin Zheng's hand excitedly, and his eyes, which were originally a little empty, suddenly became brighter.
Lin Zhengdao: "Uncle, you can't see him.
But I can arrange for you to meet, and he will be able to hear everything you say."
"My son..." Xiao Rui's father immediately covered his face and burst into tears.
At this time, Aunt Cao, who was talking outside, couldn't help but stand up.
Xu Bing patted her aunt's hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, aunt, our boss will take good care of your uncle."
Aunt Cao pondered for a moment, then sat down again.
Inside the house, Xiao Rui's father cried bitterly. His melancholy mood seemed to be released a little bit, and his spirit became much better.
"Do you really know what happened?"
Xiao Rui's father seemed to have returned to normal and expressed doubts about Lin Zheng.
After all, this kind of thing is too incredible.
Lin Zheng nodded solemnly, and Ya whispered: "It was Xiao Rui's sister who pushed him into the river and drowned.
If Xiao Rui hadn't told me personally, I wouldn't have dared to believe such an unbelievable thing.
How could a little girl be so cruel as to kill her own brother?"
Hearing this, Xiao Rui's father was shocked and his tears couldn't stop flowing down.
But this time he cried very repressedly, and the long black nails on his hands were deeply embedded in his flesh, bleeding.
"Yes, it was that bastard who killed Xiao Rui! Her mother doesn't know about it yet, and I don't want her to know either."
After a long time, Xiao Rui's father sobbed and said.
Lin Zheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you."
"When can I go see Xiaorui?"
Xiao Rui's father looked up at Lin Zheng and asked.
Lin Zheng said: "Let's do this. At nine o'clock tonight, we will gather at the entrance of the village. Then you can bring some things that Xiao Rui used during his lifetime."
"I know."
Xiao Rui's father nodded repeatedly.
Lin Zheng stood up, and before going out, he suddenly turned around and said, "Uncle, Xiao Rui doesn't want to see you like this. After all, the deceased is dead, and the living must continue to live."
Xiao Rui's father also stood up, walked to the door, thanked Lin Zheng, and said, "I'm going to get a haircut and take a shower..."
After leaving Xiao Rui's house, Lin Zheng left another 30,000 yuan to Aunt Cao, hoping to do his best.
"Ding! You send warmth to a family in need and get a tenfold cash back reward of 300,000!"
The system's rewards arrived as promised.
But Lin Zheng was thinking about how to help this family truly get over their grief and live the life they deserve...
