Sorry for the late update. 😣 I was busy and couldn’t translate the chapter until now.

---

The only sound in the ward was Chen Xiaorou’s coughing, her face flushed from coughing, tears came out, and she looked miserable.

Neither of the two people present said anything.

Huang Dan is the same as ordinary people, but very different. It seems that when God sent him to the world, he accidentally heightened his pain nerves, and also accidentally missed two things, one is a smile, and the other is compassion.

Fear, boredom, depression, exhaustion, disappointment, happiness, excitement, pain, patience, etc. Huang Dan has all these emotions. They are no different from what ordinary people have, except those two kinds.

When Huang Dan is happy, he doesn’t know how to express it on his face. He needs to imitate other people’s smiles. He also doesn’t know what it means to pity others. He has always been indifferent to the whole world. After he started to travel inexplicably, in addition to slowly learning to smile, that kind of emotion also began to appear little by little.

So far, Huang Dan has accumulated a lot of compassion. Although it is still not enough compared to ordinary people, it is already very good.

But Huang Dan won’t give any of it to Chen Xiaorou, he doesn’t like her.

Chen Xiaorou herself probably doesn’t need pity from others. She has been a “Distinguished family’s child” since she was a child, and her gentle and dignified appearance can’t hide her arrogance. To her, whoever pities her is an insult and tramples on her self-esteem.

As for Nie Wenyuan, his reasons are similar to Huang Dan. It should be said that he is Huang Dan in the real world, has a cold heart and an indifferent attitude towards everything. He will not change unless he meets someone and something that interests him.

There are things, that is, task. People didn’t have it before, but they have it now.

Chen Xiaorou stopped coughing. She stared at the ceiling, her cheeks were thin and sunken, shrouded in a gray aura, her lips were white, and her eyes were empty and desperate. The whole person looks very much like Zhou Weiwei from before.

“Jiujiu, I’m done talking, can you leave?”

Nie Wenyuan put down his overlapping long legs, he stood up straight, and walked outside with a paper bag in his hand.

Huang Dan was in a hurry, and there were still important questions left to ask. He wanted to pull the man’s arm, but he was concerned about Chen Xiaorou, so he simply asked, “Jie, why did you go to the kiln that day?”

At that moment, Huang Dan noticed Chen Xiaorou’s eyes flashing. He walked to the bed and repeated it.

Chen Xiaorou closed her eyes, indifferent.

Huang Dan said, “The kiln exploded, and Wang Ming died inside. Jie, you lost a leg. If you hadn’t gone, you wouldn’t have encountered such a thing.”

“I heard from my Jiujiu that you and Wang Ming were not in a consensual relationship. Why did you still go to see him? Did someone ask you to go?”

Hidden in his words was his concern for the whole kiln factory incident, and even Wang Ming’s death. It was so abnormal. In fact, he had exposed himself, but he had no choice but to take risks.

However, Chen Xiaorou was still like that, ignoring her Didi’s questioning and probing, as if all senses were blocked.

Huang Dan knew that no matter what he asked, Chen Xiaorou would not speak. He walked out quickly and called the man in the corridor, “You are walking very fast.” It’s like not being interested, but also avoiding it.

Nie Wenyuan made a rare joke, “My legs are long.”

Huang Dan didn’t joke with the man, “Come back with me, and ask my Jie the question I just asked.”

Nie Wenyuan rubbed the paper bag in his hand and sighed, “Xiao Yu, you are very unlikeable sometimes.”

Huang Dan oh and asked in a low voice, “Like now?”

Nie Wenyuan said yes, “It’s a foregone conclusion, but you keep trying to push it open, pick it, and tear it apart, insisting on seeing what’s inside.”

His words were serious and thoughtful, and he also meant something, “Some things are muddled, which is more beneficial to others and oneself.”

Huang Dan understands that truth, but he has no choice. He came to this world to meet people and fall in love, but behind those two things is a mission, and the three are inseparable. In order to complete the mission, he had to pay close attention to every little detail, and peel off the cocoon.

“Won’t you help me ask?”

Nie Wenyuan rubbed his eyebrows and said, “There may not be results.”

Huang Dan lowered his voice and looked directly into the man’s eyes, “Wouldn’t know until you ask.”

Nie Wenyuan looked at him for a while, “So far, more than three people have said that you are similar to me.”

Huang Dan shrugged, “The one who is close to vermillion is red and the one who is close to ink is black?”

Nie Wenyuan couldn’t help laughing at the young man’s style, “It makes sense.”

Huang Dan is not a person who will be easily distracted. He said, “Don’t drag the topic away. If you wouldn’t help me ask, I will find another way.”

Nie Wenyuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of appreciation, “Xiao Yu, if you use your persistence elsewhere, you can become a great person in the future.”

Huang Dan turned around and walked into the ward.

Nie Wenyuan used some strength with his fingers holding the paper bag, and the paper bag deformed a little, then slowly returned to normal. He stepped in and asked that question to Chen Xiaorou on the bed.

Chen Xiaorou’s eyes were still closed, “That’s my private matter.”

Nie Wenyuan put one hand in the pocket of his dark trousers and took a shortcut, “Since you won’t tell me, Jiujiu has no choice but to invite Director Wan and his group of people responsible for this case to have a cup of tea.”

Chen Xiaorou opened her mouth, but didn’t say the answer, “Whatever.”

Huang Dan’s eyelids twitched, Chen Xiaorou didn’t give up on herself, it was because the statement she gave to the police was questionable, she was confident.

Nie Wenyuan glanced at the person beside him. He was as tall as his ears. He seemed to have grown taller. Will he be taller than himself one day? It is inappropriate for him to fantasize about the distant future at this moment.

Huang Dan also looked over, with unrelenting persistence in his eyes.

Nie Wenyuan frowned slightly.

Huang Dan met the man’s gloomy face, without any fear in his heart, he was very clear about his position in this world, he was less than twenty years old, a gangster with no power and authority, he had to rely on people and things he could rely on, so that he could achieve what he want.

Nie Wenyuan’s brows were frowning together, his thin lips were straightened, and his words were directed at Chen Xiaorou, “Jiujiu can arrange surgery for you to install a prosthetic limb.”

Huang Dan thought that Chen Xiaorou would be very excited and pleasantly surprised when she heard these words, but unexpectedly she didn’t react at all.

Something is wrong.

The last time Huang Dan came over, he saw Chen Xiaorou collapsed because she lost a leg. She had no reason to refuse the chance to stand up, unless what she wanted was something more important than being able to stand up.

“Jie, with the prosthesis installed, you can walk around like before.”

Chen Xiaorou smiled, “Same as before? A fake is a fake. Even if I can stand up, what if I can walk around? Can I still dance like I used to?”

Her eyelids moved, but her eyes did not open, and her face was no longer the ferocious twist before, but a miserable smile appeared while she said, “Jiujiu, you must blame me for treating Zhou Weiwei like that. If you want to vent your anger for her, why not send me away? You can send me to any corner. I will never appear in front of you, I promise.”

Huang Dan understood that for Chen Xiaorou, losing her legs was already a fact, it didn’t matter whether she could stand up or not, because compared to survival, that was not important.

All she wants is to be alive.

A dancer who loses a leg will suffer great pain. It is true that life is worse than death, but if life and death are really separated and the choice is spread before the eyes, everyone will choose life, just like Chen Xiaorou. There will be nothing left after death.

Huang Dan was certain that there was still a big shot behind all the events surrounding Zhou Weiwei’s incident. He looked at the man for no reason, and seemed to have a lot on his mind, but seemed to be unable to think of anything.

Nie Wenyuan walked to the bedside and said, “Where does Xiaorou want to go? South or north? Jiujiu remembers that you and Weiwei are the opposite. She likes winter, you like summer, and the south is suitable for you.”

Chen Xiaorou’s eyelashes trembled, but she still didn’t open her eyes, “It’s okay. I’ll go wherever Jiujiu tells me to go. I’ll follow Jiujiu’s arrangements.”

Nie Wenyuan said, “Xiaorou is a good child.”

He changed the topic and gently rubbed the paper bag with the pad of his index finger, “It’s a pity.”

What’s a pity? Is it a pity that Chen Xiaorou ignored the affection between BiaoJiemei and dragged Zhou Weiwei into a place of right and wrong, which led to the breakdown of the relationship between them? Or is it a pity that at such a young age, she has excellent conditions and has solid basic skills and talent in dance, but got involved with Wang Ming, broke a leg, and ruined a good hand of cards?

And the latter is for some other reason?

No idea what happened, but as soon as Nie Wenyuan’s words came out, Huang Dan noticed that the temperature in the ward had dropped. He was wearing the thick coat bought by Nie Wenyuan with a woolen sweater underneath. It was very warm, but he shivered suddenly.

The three of them stopped talking suddenly, and an unspeakable atmosphere was spreading, gnawing at their thoughts and emotions silently.

Nie Wenyuan said calmly, “About Weiwei’s matter, you have to give her and her mother an explanation.”

Chen Xiaorou said, “Okay, I still have one leg, two arms, and one life. It’s okay for them to do whatever they want. Jiujiu, can you let me fend for myself by then?”

“Anyway, my life is over. The rest of my life will be worse than Zhou Weiwei’s. I think the more miserable I am, the happier she will be. When she is happy, Jiujiu will be happy too. You treat me like a fart. “

“Wait until you see them.”

After Nie Wenyuan spat out this sentence, he didn’t dwell on it any longer.

Huang Dan didn’t follow him immediately. He looked at the young woman on the hospital bed and suddenly came closer, ready to lift the quilt.

Chen Xiaorou suddenly shout at this moment, “Get out.”

Huang Dan’s hand rested on top of the quilt, he withdrew his hand, stretched it out suddenly, grabbed the quilt and threw it aside.

Chen Xiaorou’s hands were digging at the bed sheet, the veins on the back of her hands popped out due to the force, her fingertips were white and trembling non-stop.

Huang Dan said, “Jie, you, you are not……?”

Chen Xiaorou interrupted him, “Are you finished? Didn’t you hear me telling you to go out? Get lost!”

Huang Dan felt that if Chen Xiaorou opened her eyes, there would be panic. She was afraid of Nie Wenyuan, not just afraid.

Nie Wenyuan’s voice came from the corridor, and Huang Dan didn’t stay too long. He walked to the door, and when he reached the door, he said, “Ge negotiated terms with Jiujiu, and he is going abroad.”

After speaking, Huang Dan didn’t look back, he closed the door and left.

The door was gently closed, and the ward fell silent. Chen Xiaorou was lying on her back, her breathing was very slow, she slammed the cup on the bedside table.

The water cup hit the wall, leaving a pool of water on the wall, and fell to the ground in an instant.

This was the fifth cup that Chen Xiaorou broke after she woke up and learned that she was missing a leg. However, she did not become hysterical like the previous times. Instead, she covered her head with a quilt and hid inside, crying silently with fiercely trembling lips.

“Knock, knock,” a knock on the door suddenly sounded, and Chen Xiaorou’s body trembled violently, “Who is it?”

There was no answer from outside, so she poked her head out from under the quilt and called again, and a nurse’s voice came, “Miss Chen.”

Chen Xiaorou’s tense nerves relaxed, her tense back was wet, no one knew what she was afraid of, only she knew.

The nurse came in to show Chen Xiaorou the infusion bottle and took her temperature. When she left, she said, “Right!”

Chen Xiaorou’s heart suddenly stopped and she opened her mouth, “What?”

The nurse took out a small burgundy velvet box from the pocket of her white coat. It looked like a jewelry box. Just by looking at the box without seeing what was inside, you could guess that it was not a cheap item. “Someone asked me to pass this on to you.”

Chen Xiaorou suddenly yelled as if seeing a ghost, her head still shaking, “I don’t want it, take it away, take it away!”

The nurse was frightened by the patient’s overreaction, she was at a loss, “Miss Chen……”

Chen Xiaorou’s eyes were wide open and red, and tears were streaming down her face. “Take it away! Come on, take the box away from me. If you can’t, throw it away. Throw it in the trash can. That’s right.”

The nurse became a little scared, she took two steps back, planning to contact Director Nie’s people.

After all, this patient is Director Nie’s niece, who is very powerful, and she is not something ordinary people like her can mess with.

When Chen Xiaorou found out, she stopped shouting, and the shelf of the infusion bottle was shaken violently, “Don’t go! Give me the things! Give me quickly!”

The nurse had already moved towards the door. This was an instinctive reaction. She would act to protect herself when faced with unknown situations. However, out of her own professional habits, she still tried to comfort her, “Miss Chen, calm down please come down.”

Chen Xiaorou was talking incoherently at first, then she suddenly looked at the nurse and said in a very calm tone, “You go to my Jiujiu and give him this thing.”

Nurse，“……”

Her eyes were full of sympathy when she looked at her. A famous beauty in T city had something like this happen to her. She lost her leg and seemed to have mental problems. She didn’t know if any other man would look at her face like this. Marry people back to serve as ancestors.

The nurse didn’t stay long, and hurriedly opened the door and went out.

Chen Xiaorou wiped her face and stared at the door with a highly alert expression, as if a bloodthirsty beast would break in there at any moment, a vicious ghost that would come to the door and demand her life.

On the day of the New Year, Huang Dan got up early in the morning. He was pulled by Nie Wenyuan to clean upstairs and downstairs to welcome the new year.

It was completely white outside, and there seemed to be a huge white sheet on the floor. It was a new one, the color was too white, and when people saw it, they couldn’t help but want to lie on it and roll around a few times.

Huang Dan didn’t want to leave. He was shoveling snow at the door with a shovel. Instead of feeling cold, he was sweating profusely.

Nie Wenyuan’s shout came from the living room, Huang Dan leaned his shovel under the eaves, changed his rubber boots and went back to the house, “What’s wrong?”

“Come here and hold the chair.”

Nie Wenyuan stood on the chair and wiped the lamp. The sleeves of his sweater were rolled up, revealing his strong wheat-colored arms. He had glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose and his expression was serious. “Hold on steady. Don’t be distracted. Your Jiujiu is old and can easily slip up to the waist.”

He is in his thirties, in his prime. Before he is old, he has begun to act old. When he is old, don’t know what it will be like.

Huang Dan pressed his hands on both sides of the chair, “Is your waist bad?”

Nie Wenyuan heard another meaning in his words, “Don’t worry, some things won’t be a problem. If Xiao Yu doesn’t believe it, we can give it a try.”

Huang Dan looked up, “It’s better not to talk, let’s clean the lamp first.”

Nie Wenyuan wiped carefully. He has obsessive-compulsive disorder, but he is still obsessed with details. He rubbed the edges of small lamps one by one.

Huang Dan’s neck was sore, “Forget it, I’ll do it.”

Nie Wenyuan said in a low voice, “Xiao Yu, hold the chair and don’t talk.”

Huang Dan seemed to see a stubborn old man who would not listen to persuasion and was annoying. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he laughed out loud without stopping.

Hearing the laughter, Nie Wenyuan unconsciously looked down. As a result, his hands trembled, and he turned his head, wobbling and jumping off the chair.

Huang Dan was frightened right away, “Is the wound okay?”

Nie Wenyuan didn’t speak, he covered his abdomen with a painful expression on his face.

Huang Dan helped the man onto the sofa, “You lean back, and I’ll take a look at the injury for you.”

Nie Wenyuan grabbed his hand and squeezed it before letting go, “Don’t look, I have a sweater on the outside, a shirt on the inside, and an autumn jacket on the inside. It’s all tucked into the trousers. It’s troublesome.”

Huang Dan said it was no trouble.

Nie Wenyuan reached for the half pack of cigarettes and the matchbox on the coffee table, “Then look at it, and tuck all my clothes back into my trousers after looking.”

When tying clothes, one has to touch the waistband of their trousers. This is not a safe area. There are wild animals lurking there, which is very dangerous.

Huang Dan, stood up, “Forget it, I won’t look at it, it’s troublesome.”

Nie Wenyuan，“……”

Huang Dan took away the rag left on the table. He stood on the chair and realized that he was not tall enough. He had to stand on tiptoes to wipe the remaining part.

Nie Wenyuan had just put the cigarette in his mouth, but before he could strike the match, he saw the young man shaking the lamp while wiping the lamp. The cigarette in his mouth trembled, and he quickly grabbed the young man and took him down.

This time the wound was really affected, and the pain on his face was real.

The story of the wolf coming did not appear, Huang Dan nervously helped the man away, took the medicine box and changed the gauze for him, then went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and brought it over, “Lie down, call me if you have any orders, the cleaning at home I’ll do it.”

“You’ll do it?”

Nie Wenyuan took a sip of water and pursed his thin lips. There was a little more water on them, “If you mop the floor, you will fall, it will hurt like hell.”

Huang Dan was taken aback.

Nie Wenyuan was also stunned.

Huang Dan looked at the man, and said slowly, “Have I mopped the floor with you?”

Nie Wenyuan frowned, as if he couldn’t remember. He was confused for a moment, “When a person reaches a certain age, his memory will decline.”

Huang Dan bent his back and looked into the man’s eyes.

Nie Wenyuan looked at the magnified face, so close that even the baby hairs on the young man’s face could be seen, he pinched the other’s face with one hand, “Umm?”

Huang Dan said seriously, “Don’t say you are old, I don’t like to hear it.”

As he listened, he would always think about the four words of life and death, and when he thought about it, he felt uncomfortable and panicked.

Nie Wenyuan brushed away a few strands of hair from the young man’s forehead, rubbed the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows with his fingertips, and pressed his lips to it for a while, “Okay, I won’t talk about it anymore.”

Huang Dan pushed the man away, and continued to stare at him, as if he couldn’t get enough of it.

Nie Wenyuan’s face was solemn, “Xiao Yu, don’t look any further.”

Huang Dan noticed that there was something extra huge on the man’s crotch, so he took a step back and stood up straight.

Nie Wenyuan gulped down a glass of water, a drop of water dripped down his resolute jaw, slipped past his rolling Adam’s apple, and buried it in the collar of the gray thick-lined sweater.

Huang Dan’s mouth was a little dry, but he was still rational. He was not seduced.

Nie Wenyuan stood up and continued to clean the lamp. After cleaning, he went to wipe the table and mop the floor, “It’s New Year’s Eve tonight, are you ready?”

Huang Dan said, “Not yet.”

Nie Wenyuan rubbed his forehead.

Huang Dan also rubbed it. The points are accumulated very slowly. Now he can only buy three, which is not enough to make for one time, not to mention they have to do it several times a night. It would be great if there can be an activity. As long as there is, he will be sure to get rewards.

It won’t work on little New Year’s Eve, but maybe it will on big New Year’s Eve, Huang Dan said, “Your wound hasn’t healed yet.”

Nie Wenyuan wiped the edge of the table back and forth. He didn’t raise his head and his eyelids were half-draped. “Xiao Yu, this excuse doesn’t work, let’s find another one.”

Huang Dan said, “It’s not an excuse, it’s just that I’m worried about your health. Once you recover from your injuries, I’ll rest assured.”

Nie Wenyuan’s movement of wiping the table froze for a moment. He raised his head and said in a low voice, “Crying?”

Huang Dan didn’t cry, his eyes were dry, but there was a hint of crying in his voice, probably because he recalled something sad.

Throwing away the rag, Nie Wenyuan stretched out one hand, wrapped it around the back of the young man’s neck, lifted his collar, lifted him in front of him, pulled him into his arms, rubbed his lips against his soft hair, his white ears then touched his warm and moist lips.

Huang Dan’s back was leaning against the table, he wrapped his arms around the man’s waist, and his breath was short of breath when he was kissed.

Nie Wenyuan backed away from the young man’s mouth, brushed the tip of his tongue over his slightly swollen lips, pressed his forehead against his, sprayed hot and heavy breath on his face, “Xiao Yu.”

Huang Dan saw his reflection in the man’s pupils, as well as his deep desire. He didn’t know when to break through the obstacles, and his posture seemed to be about to ride the wind and waves, and turning the clouds and rain upside down.

At this moment, Nie Wenyuan’s cell phone rang.

Huang Dan said, “I’m going to the bathroom,” and he left quickly.

Nie Wenyuan took a look at the landline numbers displayed on it. He sat on the sofa, pressed the answer button and listened while restraining himself.

Grandma Wu called Nie Wenyuan’s cell phone and asked him if he knew where Chen Yu was. The voice was very urgent, “Wenyuan, if you know, please send that boy home immediately. Your Jie keeps crying on the phone and is going crazy looking for him.”

Nie Wenyuan said, “Okay, I will check.”

When Grandma Wu heard what he said, she breathed out, “Your Jie’s life is really hard. She raised her eldest son to be a college student, but he fell off a bicycle before he became famous. The second kid was a beauty since she was a child. She has always been the lead dancer in the art troupe, and can dance so well. No one expected……she broke her leg unexpectedly. God must be blind. Instead of dealing with the unscrupulous people, he hurt two children with excellent conduct like that.”

She choked up on the other end of the phone, “Wenyuan, you have to give your Jie a hand this time, otherwise I think she really won’t be able to survive.”

“And your little nephew, now is the time when his family needs him. You must educate him well, tell him to be more careful, and stop dawdling around. Otherwise, if he didn’t stop dawdling around, his family will be gone, and his father’s heart will be chilled watching from the ground.”

Nie Wenyuan said, “Mama Wu, is there anything else?”

Grandma Wu didn’t hear anything strange, “Why didn’t you tell me that your ErJie(second older sister) took Xiaowei back to her hometown? I brought a basket of eggs to see her, and I only found out about it when I happened to meet an old friend of hers.”

Nie Wenyuan said, “I don’t know about it.”

Grandma Wu was nagging on the other end, “Really, she went back to her hometown quietly, without even saying hello. Nie Xiuqin doesn’t seem like that kind of person at ordinary times. Could it be that there is something important? Wenyuan, do you think you should send someone to ask about the situation? Xiaowei’s illness is not cured yet, and life will definitely be difficult for the two of them.”

Nie Wenyuan’s forehead was sweating, so he didn’t care to listen to the old woman’s nagging, “Mama Wu, I’ll hang up first.”

Grandma Wu shouted and waited, “Wenyuan, you haven’t been home recently. Today is the New year, so do you want to come back to eat?”

Nie Wenyuan said, “If I went back, your little New Year’s eve will be very uncomfortable.”

Grandma Wu exclaimed, “How come? If you come back, I can prepare a big table of food and eat an extra bowl of rice. Normally, if you don’t come back, I, an old woman, would be too lazy to cook in such a big room, and just eat whatever is gathered.”

After all, she’s getting older, and there is loneliness between the lines. Grandma Wu will be sixty-five after the new year, and will be seventy in a few years. Time flies, and she will be too old to walk, in a blink of an eye.

Grandma Wu has devoted herself to taking care of Nie Wenyuan these years. She has not married. In the early years, she had no time, and then she lost the inclination. In her heart, she has no husband, but she has an amazing son, and is very proud. When she goes to see the Cheng family couple underground, she can straighten her back and have a clear conscience.

“I’ll consider, ok!”

Nie Wenyuan closed his eyelids, he hung up the phone and put the phone aside.

When Huang Dan came out, he heard heavy breathing coming from the living room. He did not come closer, but stood in the corner and leaned against the wall, listening to the rough breathing in his ears, one sound getting clearer and the other getting fuzzy.

After a while, Huang Dan’s legs went numb, and the panting in the living room stopped.

Nie Wenyuan wiped the sofa, “Go get some toilet paper and wipe the floor.”

Huang Dan took most of the roll of toilet paper. He pulled several pieces and squatted on the ground to wipe the puddles. The smell entered his nose, which was very strong. “You’re suffering from excessive internal heat.”

Nie Wenyuan’s voice was lazy and magnetic, “It’s normal.”

Huang Dan wiped the floor clean and threw all the paper balls into the trash can. “Drink some chrysanthemum tea tonight to relieve the heat.”

Nie Wenyuan highlighted, “Tea won’t work, but the other word will.”

Huang Dan，“……”

Nie Wenyuan quickly calmed down his breathing. He talked about Grandma Wu’s phone call and said, “It’s up to you whether you want to go back or not.”

Huang Dan said that he wanted to go back, “Mom must be looking for me for something.”

Nie Wenyuan seemed to know what the young man would say. He folded his legs, lit a cigarette and took a puff, “The driver will be here in a while.”

Huang Dan said, “I’ll ride a bicycle.”

“It’s cold, it will freeze.”

Nie Wenyuan sat on the sofa deeply, the smoke spiraled upward, blurring his facial expression, “Come back early for dinner.”

Huang Dan put on a thick coat and went out, “I’ll call you if I need anything.”

He walked out and then looked back, entered the room and kissed the man on the lips with obvious love.

Nie Wenyuan sat on the sofa for a long time. After the cigarette had burned out, a small handful of ash hung tremblingly on it. It was blown down by a gust of wind and landed on his pants, burning a hole before he came back to his senses.

Nie Wenyuan dusted off the cigarette in a slightly embarrassed manner. The back of his head hit the back of the chair. He sighed and shook his head, frustrated.

When Huang Dan returned home, he was dragged to the hospital by Nie Youxiang.

Nie Youxiang’s face was sallow and thin, and her face was covered with signs of weather erosion, “Xiaorou, your Didi is here, just tell him if you have anything to say.”

Chen Xiaorou said, “You go out.”

Nie Youxiang knew that she couldn’t stimulate her daughter, so she had to go, so she left without saying a word.

Huang Dan vaguely knew that what Chen Xiaorou wanted to say this time would be very different from last time, because Nie Wenyuan was far away and he was alone here, so there was no sense of oppression.

A voice sounded in his ear, and Huang Dan raised his eyes, “What do you want to tell me?”

Chen Xiaorou was so skinny that only a handful of bones remained. In just a few days, her eye sockets were sunken, and she looked scary, “You asked Jiujiu to let me go.”

Huang Dan asked her, “What do you mean?”

Chen Xiaorou looked out the window and then looked at the blue and white stripes on the quilt, “Don’t ask anymore, Xiao Yu, Jiejie lost a leg and has already paid a heavy price. Isn’t this enough?”

Huang Dan said, “Jiujiu is not angry.”

He added, “Aunt and BiaoJie have returned to their hometown, and they have not come to you to ask for an explanation.”

Chen Xiaorou laughed sarcastically, “What do you know? That’s scary. He won’t let me go. Jiujiu won’t let me go.”

Huang Dan said, “You think too much.”

Chen Xiaorou suddenly lost her temper, “I thought too much? How do you think Liu Quanwu died?”

Huang Dan stared at her and asked, “How did he die?”

Chen Xiaorou laughed, her smile was weird, and she started to cry again, “Xiao Yu, Jiejie just likes to dance, and doesn’t want to know many things. Really, Jiejie just wants to dance for the rest of her life and stand on the biggest stage in the world and be praised by thousands of people. This is Jiejie’s dream.”

Huang Dan said, “Jie, tell me everything, and I’ll find a way for you.”

Chen Xiaorou’s eyes widened, “Really?”

Huang Dan nodded, politely, “Really.”

Chen Xiaorou tilted her head and looked at her Didi. She waved, “Come closer.”

Huang Dan’s body suddenly stopped, and he stood up straight. In the short two seconds just now, he had an intuition that Chen Xiaorou would bite his ear off.

He almost forgot.

Chen Xiaorou hated Zhou Weiwei who got Nie Wenyuan’s attention, and she would also hate him.

Chen Xiaorou’s body trembled while laughing, she pointed to the young man at the end of the bed, “You are not Chen Yu, you are not.”

Huang Dan’s face was calm, showing no emotional ups and downs.

Chen Xiaorou seemed to have seen her Jiujiu. She blinked and murmured to herself, repeating the words, “No, you’re not……”

“My Didi, Chen Yu only causes trouble and is good for nothing. He plays outside all day long. He either goes to the bar to drink with his gangster friends or teases some girl. He can’t sit down, and it doesn’t hurt if he loses a piece of flesh on his body, so he continues to play, but……”

She smiled and said, “My Didi can stand up for me when I am bullied. That stupid person, who did he think he was? In the end, he was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but he still smiled at me and told me that if my family asked me, they would say that he had a fight with someone. Listen, how so self-righteous.”

Huang Dan saw Chen Xiaorou’s face covered with tears, but he said nothing.

“You are different. You look obedient. You don’t refute what we say. In fact, you don’t listen to anything. Your obedience is your indifference. You cry when you knock, which is worse than all the girls I know. Be squeamish, you can get close to Jiujiu and get his attention, far more than Zhou Weiwei, you replaced her……”

At the end of her speech, Chen Xiaorou gave a conclusion, “You are not my Didi.”

She was very calm and unhurried, and she didn’t seem to panic at all about this information. When death is approaching, everything will become insignificant.

“If you don’t want me to talk about this, just do as I say and help me one last time.”

Huang Dan said, “Nothing can be hidden from Jiujiu.”

Chen Xiaorou’s complexion changed drastically, she smiled wryly and said yes, “Why did I forget, who is Jiujiu, he has known us for decades……”

As if she had touched some forbidden zone, her words stopped abruptly, “Get out, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”

Huang Dan didn’t know that, it was the last time he saw Chen Xiaorou.

That afternoon, Chen Xiaorou wanted to be discharged from the hospital, and Nie Youxiang had no choice but to forcefully take her away despite the doctor’s objection.

As a result, the car was in an accident on the way to avoid an oncoming truck. Nie Youxiang and the driver were injured to varying degrees, and Chen Xiaorou died on the spot.

Huang Dan rushed over after receiving the news. He sent the unconscious Nie Youxiang to the hospital, was interrogated by the police, and was also responsible for handling Chen Xiaorou’s funeral.

Chen Xiaorou died of an accident, or it can be said that she died of her own fear.

Perhaps it will be a difficult New Year’s Eve.

The death of a person in a car accident is not good. Huang Dan had a car accident when he crossed for the first time. He didn’t have time to leave, so he didn’t die, but the man left. It was he who handled the man’s body after the car accident with his own hands.

Later, Huang Dan experienced another car accident. That time he pushed the man away, and he was knocked out. He didn’t come back to life.

Huang Dan came out of the morgue and went to the toilet at the corner of the corridor. After finishing his toilet at the urinal, he suddenly raised his head while washing his hands under the faucet and looked at the extra figure in the mirror.

Standing behind him was Chen Fei, who had never shown up. He was even thinner than Chen Xiaorou when she was alive. He originally had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but now his face was sharpened, and his eyes were frighteningly big.

Chen Fei was going abroad, he knew that when he gets there, there will be an invisible dog chain around his neck, he will live like a dog, even so, he still wants to live.

Now that Chen Xiaorou is dead, Chen Fei panicked, he couldn’t sit still and ran over.

Huang Dan washed his hands casually, “Who told you about Jiujiu and I?”

Chen Fei sneered, “I still need someone to tell me that when the two of you flirt with each other, I feel sick when I look at it, and I almost vomit out the overnight meal.”

Huang Dan thought about what happened during this period. Did he and Nie Wenyuan have any flirtation before their relationship was confirmed? Could it be that the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders?

Didn’t someone else really reveal it to Chen Fei?

After gathering his thoughts, Huang Dan did not spend more time on this. He deliberately provoked Chen Fei’s nerve endings, “Jie has already told me about BiaoJie.”

Chen Fei’s face changed, “Really?”

Huang Dan said, “She said she just introduced BiaoJie to a big boss and didn’t know about her being raped. Ge, did you know?”

He deliberately stimulated Chen Fei, “Did you separate from Jie at that time, and went after BiaoJie alone……”

Chen Fei became agitated and interrupted loudly, “What the hell can I know? Chen Yu, please keep your mouth clean. Don’t think that others are as dirty as you!”

Huang Dan’s eyes twitched, “When BiaoJie heard your name, she would have a big reaction and would go crazy. People who were in the same situation as you were my Jie and Quanwu Shushu. They both had accidents.”

He doesn’t know which piece of meat on Chen Fei’s body was scratched by these words. He grabbed Huang Dan’s collar with a livid face, and growled, “The god knows what the hell is going on, she was defiled by a few men. What does gang rape have to do with me? Why should I save her? She shouldn’t have heard it herself……”

Chen Fei let go of his Didi’s collar at once, and he staggered back a few steps, covering his face and panting heavily.

“What did she hear?”

Huang Dan asked, “Ge, BiaoJie heard it, did you hear it too?” Otherwise, it wouldn’t be that way.

Chen Fei was still panting, his whole body was shaking, almost cramping, and the sound in his throat was like an old bellows, which made people feel uncomfortable breathing.

Seeing that Chen Fei was still silent, Huang Dan had to change the question, “When BiaoJie was raped, were you watching?”

Chen Fei put down the hand covering his face, with a horrifying look in his eyes, “So what? That stupid woman was still looking at me and asking for help. She didn’t even think about who she was. Would I let myself die for her?”

“Do you know, I was almost killed by her just because she kept looking at where I was standing!”

Huang Dan sorted out his thoughts, and put what Chen Fei revealed behind Chen Xiaorou, that is, Zhou Weiwei ran away from the big boss. When she ran away and hid, she heard someone talking, was discovered, and needed to be killed to silence her. The other party saw the situation and revolted, planning to kill before……

A series of speculations are very reasonable. Huang Dan moved forward along this line, but he got stuck again. How did Zhou Weiwei survive? Chen Fei didn’t save, so who intervened?

What role does Liu Quanwu play in it? Was he the one who saved Zhou Weiwei?

Huang Dan denied himself, no, if Liu Quanwu came to the rescue, Zhou Weiwei’s reaction would not be so violent, unless Liu Quanwu happened to pass by and rescued her, and evil thoughts came into his mind.

Zhou Weiwei has the answer.

Huang Dan knew that as long as Zhou Weiwei could recover, his mission would be almost completed.

After a pause, Huang Dan looked at the abnormal Chen Fei in front of him, “Is what you and BiaoJie heard related to Jiujiu?”

The expression on Chen Fei’s face instantly became stiff.

Huang Dan’s eyes flashed and he continued, “In addition to using my relationship with Jiujiu as a reason to blackmail Jiujiu into sending you abroad, did you also use what you heard that night?”

Chen Fei wiped his face and grinned, “Okay Chen Yu, you are testing your Ge, it’s amazing, I really underestimate you.”

“That’s right, it’s nothing strange. You’ve already climbed into Jiujiu’s bed. Is there anything else you can’t do?”

Huang Dan stopped talking.

Chen Fei patted his Didi on the shoulder and straightened out the messy collar for him, “There must be hundreds of such good clothes. Jiujiu is so willing to give them up. Chen Yu, don’t bother. As long as Jiujiu sends me abroad, I will definitely think of what to say.”

Huang Dan looked at Chen Fei with scrutiny and inquiry in his eyes.

Chen Fei was extremely uncomfortable being looked at by his Didi, and he felt like he had become a clown. He leaned closer and said, “Be careful and don’t let anyone discover you again, otherwise you will end up in a mental hospital. I heard it’s very miserable there.”

Huang Dan became more and more convinced that Chen Fei was running for his life, and someone wanted to kill him to silence him, “You have done something wrong.”

Chen Fei smiled and said, “What’s wrong? How can a reform-through-labor prisoner who has served in a labor camp have the right to criticize me? Chen Yu, you have been living with Jiujiu for a few days, and you can’t tell who you are? Mud is just mud anyway, and what you have done cannot be erased, understand?”

Huang Dan thought about the things the original owner had done, and he was silent for a moment, “At least I didn’t harm my relatives.”

“Ge, if dad finds out, he won’t forgive you. He hopes that you can get ahead, and mom hopes so too. But you have lost your job, and now you are still living but not like a human being, or not like a ghost. Something happened to Jie, and you won’t go see her either.”

Huang Dan said this with intention. He wanted to poke Chen Fei’s sore feet, not for anything else but simply because he didn’t like him. He had already disliked him.

The veins on Chen Fei’s neck twitched, and he cursed, “Chen Yu, you are a bitch.”

Huang Dan didn’t say anything and just kicked him.

Chen Fei bent his knees and almost knelt down. He rushed over and wrestled with his Didi.
