Bai Xi and I sat face to face in the private room of the Minnan restaurant.

Several distinctive Hokkien dishes were just served on the table, among which clam meat with osmanthus and braised macaroni river eel are my favorites.

But none of us moved our chopsticks at this time.

I told Bai Xi what happened during this period. After she heard it, she froze in place with a look of remorse and guilt.

Seeing the tears welling up in her eyes, I said, "Since it has happened, I think you should also know that there is no point in regretting it now. The good news is that your godfather's life can be barely saved. As for whether it will happen in the future?" There will be sequelae, but it’s not clear yet.”

"Brother Lei... I..." She sniffed and became excited: "I really didn't expect that Lu Xiaoyu would... tell A Niu about this."

"I told you at the beginning that your main purpose in the Finance Department was to monitor Lu Xiaoyu and A Niu. Lu Xiaoyu will not talk about it for the moment. A Niu is an extremely insidious person. My grudges with him are already very deep. As long as there is a little If he had the chance, he would kill me."

Bai Xi said: "I know...but I didn't expect him to deal with his godfather..."

Don't talk about her, I didn't expect Aniu to mess with the people around me.

"This place is no better than the outside. It's not your first day in the park. You should know very well that anything can happen here. I want you to be careful. I don't want you to harm others, but I want you to be wary of others. Harm you."

I sighed and said, "But it's not too late now. I hope you will be wary of anyone in the future. And you are different from Lu Xiaoyu. Her father is not an ordinary person in the park. No matter what she does, There are people supporting her behind her back. And once you do something wrong, no one will care about you except your godfather and me. Do you understand?"

The tears in Bai Xi's eyes kept rolling down the corners of her eyes. She bit her lips and nodded vigorously.

"You don't know much about A Niu. But I can tell you that he is definitely more dangerous than anyone else in the park..."

After saying that, I asked: "Where are Lu Xiaoyu and him now?"

"They don't meet often...but they often chat on the phone. Last time I asked Lu Xiaoyu if she liked A Niu, but she didn't answer me at the time...but..."

"But what?"

Bai Xi said with some uncertainty: "But I feel like she likes A Niu."

This was not beyond my expectation. After all, if Lu Xiaoyu didn't like A Niu, he wouldn't be able to tell him everything.

A Niu probably understands this, and the reason why he doesn't dare to be with Lu Xiaoyu is probably because he is afraid of Lao Lu.

"Remember, monitor Lu Xiaoyu's every move at all times." I pursed my lips and said, "If one day she has a relationship with A Niu, I hope you will leave evidence no matter what means you use."

"What evidence?" Bai Xi looked at me with some confusion.

"Photos, videos, or recordings of Lu Xiaoyu telling you."

"Brother Lei...what do you want these for?"

I breathed out: "You should know very well who Lu Xiaoyu's father is. If her father knew that his daughter was involved with a bully, what do you think Lu would do?"

"If they really have a relationship, even if Lao Lu wants to intervene, I'm afraid Lu Xiaoyu will not agree..."

"It's possible." I nodded and said, "But no matter what, just do as I say."

Bai Xi nodded.

I picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to her: "Eat first and chat while you eat. The food will get cold after a while."

She took the chopsticks, hesitated and asked, "Brother Lei, can I go see my godfather?"

"He is still recuperating now. I will check the situation in a few days and I will ask him what he means. You can come back then."

"Thank you, Brother Lei..."

I sighed and said with a smile: "We are all our own people, so there is no need to be so polite."

As I said that, I picked up a piece of river eel and put it in her bowl: "Do you have enough money recently?"

"Enough..."

I took out a chip with a face value of [-] and handed it over: "Take this money and buy whatever you need. Now that you are in the finance department, it is not easy for us to see each other often. Take care of yourself over there. , call me if anything happens."

Bai Xi looked at me with gratitude: "Brother Lei... I have enough money..."

"You can take it if you are told." I said with a smile, "Your godfather is my master. After all, we are also members of the same family. One family does not speak the same language."

After dinner, I went to Lao Chen’s dormitory.

The past few days of self-cultivation had made his health improve a lot, but he still had diarrhea every day, and several times he had prolapse.

I also got a lot of medicine from the medical office, but the effect was not very obvious.

Looking at Lao Chen who was lying on the bed with a sallow face, I pulled up a chair and sat beside the bed.

"You're here..." His voice was hoarse and weak.

"How do you feel now?"

He forced a smile: "My stomach still feels like it's on fire, as if something has been chewing my flesh inside..."

I sighed, not knowing what to say for a moment.

According to the advice of the doctor at the medical office, Lao Chen's current condition requires him to be sent to a large hospital for surgery.

But now, let alone sending him to a big hospital, it is impossible to even leave the park!

"I had thought before that I would die here sooner or later, but I didn't expect that it would be like this in the end..." Lao Chen said with a sad smile, "Life is a busy life, short and long, but there are no pros and cons, gains and losses. It’s difficult to measure…”

"Yang Lei. I am unwilling..." He looked at me steadily and said.

"Don't think too much." I comforted him and said, "I'll think about it again and see if I can get some special medicine. You will definitely get better."

He smiled bitterly: "I know my own body very well. In my current situation, no medicine will help..."

As he said this, he asked me to light a cigarette for him.

I took out a cigarette, put one in his mouth, and lit it.

He couldn't help but cough after taking a sip, and the cough was severe.

"Stop smoking..."

He shook his head and said with a smile: "Let me take two more puffs."

After some hesitation, I complied with his request.

After smoking half a cigarette, he was still coughing, so I put out the cigarette.

After coughing for a while, he stopped and asked me: "Cotton, he..."

I didn't want to tell him about the fool, but I knew he knew it, so I told the truth: "Wang Meng and I cremated him."

Hearing the news, he showed a smile: "It's good to be cremated... you can also cremate me later..."

I looked at Lao Chen's face, and the calm expression made me feel that he had seen through everything, even life and death.

There was no panic or pleading in his eyes, only a sense of sadness and resignation...
