doting on one's wife

Boss Shi pulled out a dagger from his bosom and approached Yaya.

Yaya took a few steps back warily, "Don't mess around..."

Boss Shi suddenly covered Yaya's mouth with his hand, and swung down the dagger.

Yaya closed her eyes and let out a muffled grunt, her hands loosened suddenly, she moved her hands in surprise, it turned out that he had cut the rope.

"Now you should trust me, right?" Mr. Shi laughed and stretched out his hand to help Yaya up, patting the dust on her clothes.

"Don't be afraid, you hide in the house and play by ear, I'll go out and drive those people away, and then you come out."

Yaya nodded silently, she finally felt some comfort in her heart, fortunately someone came to save her, otherwise it would be over.

"By the way, where is Xiaodong locked up?" She asked curiously.

"He was locked in another room alone. Before Qiuming Ji came, they would not easily hand over Xiaodong. For them, Xiaodong was the last trump card." He reached out and touched the surrounding windows. After touching it, he found that everything was locked tightly, and he frowned suddenly.

Boss Shi handed the dagger to Yaya, "Hold it, use it for your own protection, don't wander around."

He turned around and was about to go out when suddenly Yaya reached out and grabbed him, "You...be careful."

He shook slightly, then lowered his head and smiled, "I will, wait for me here."

His figure quickly disappeared outside the door, Yaya stood up, and began to look for a way to go out quietly, maybe Boss Shi could indeed help her escape, but she couldn't pin all her hopes on him, for Yaya It is said that it is more practical to rely on yourself.

She pulled hard on the locked window, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a stone under the table, picked it up immediately, and slammed it lightly towards the window, fearing that people outside the house would hear, she smashed the glass out with the stone very carefully. There was a crack, and then gently broke off a small piece, and sure enough, I saw the scenery outside.

A group of men with live ammunition were wandering around, and Boss Shi was among them, laughing and chatting with a small leader.

The little boss turned his head slightly, as if he noticed the abnormality on the window glass of Yaya's room, Yaya's heart skipped a beat, and she squatted down in a hurry, only to hear the hurried footsteps coming towards this side, it seems to be the little boss Come and see.

Immediately afterwards, Boss Shi's voice sounded by the windowpane, and Yaya heard him say with a smile, "I'll be here to guard this bitch, you guys should stand guard for me."

The little boss said helplessly: "I think you are the most lazy among these people." Then he turned and walked away.

Yaya stood up curiously, but saw that Boss Shi was leaning on the window with a piece of glass missing, blocking everyone's sight, unless he moved away, no one would notice.

Boss Shi lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't I tell you not to act rashly?"

Yaya responded softly, "I can't sit and wait for death." She doesn't want to rely on this man in front of her, perhaps she can be trusted more than him.

She didn't follow Boss Shi's wishes, but continued to tinker with the window glass, but this time she didn't remove all the glass, she had to wait until night, and it would be dark after a while, and then she would take the opportunity to escape go.

A few hours later, it was really dark, and those who were standing guard outside shrank back into their houses and began to discuss when to inform Qiu Mingji of the news, so that he could come forward and throw himself into the trap.

Yaya glanced through the glass, and sure enough there was no one outside, she gently removed all the glass, and then exposed the iron railing, Yaya took out her belt with her, soaked it in the water, wrapped it around the railing, Putting her feet on the window sill, she pulled hard, and the railing was bent after a while. Yaya was overjoyed and continued to use her strength.

With no difficulty, a large gap was exposed at the railing that could allow one person to enter and exit. Without caring about other things, she got out of it and jumped down quietly.

Yaya's figure melted into the blackness, and she wanted to leave at first, but suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Xiaodong's shadow yet, she gritted her teeth, turned around and turned back, hiding in the canvas of an unguarded warehouse.

Just after I hid my figure, I suddenly heard someone yelling, "Oops! She ran away!"

"What? Hurry up and find it for me!" The little boss roared angrily, and immediately after a burst of footsteps, everyone rushed out.

Yaya huddled tightly in the canvas, not daring to move, when she suddenly heard a voice not far away, "Do you want to search the warehouse too?"

Boss Shi's voice sounded immediately, "Forget it, she must have escaped, why is she hiding here?"

The footsteps gradually faded away, Yaya breathed a sigh of relief, quietly waiting for the opportunity.

After an unknown amount of time, Yaya heard the door outside the warehouse being opened again. Immediately afterwards, someone seemed to be running in. Her eyes lit up, and it turned out that someone had lifted the canvas. Yaya was stunned, and the person who came was actually Xiaodong!

Xiaodong also looked at Yaya in surprise, and Yaya hugged him in surprise, "Xiaodong, I was going to rescue you, how did you escape!"

Xiaodong pointed to the person outside with wet eyes, "Mum, it's Uncle Shi, let's go, or it will be too late."

Immediately, Yaya grabbed Xiaodong's hand and ran out. At this moment, everyone was sent out to look for them. Yaya and Xiaodong ran out of the door smoothly, and suddenly met a speeding car. The two got into the car immediately, Boss Shi turned his head and glanced at them, and after confirming that they were unharmed, he heaved a sigh of relief and drove to the highway at high speed.

Yaya finally felt relieved, as long as they entered the city safely, Qiu Mingji would come to pick them up.

Gently touching the face of Xiaodong who was sleeping soundly beside her, Yaya also gradually fell asleep with the bumps of the car, and when she was sleeping soundly, the car suddenly stopped.

Yaya woke up vigilantly, and saw Boss Shi walking to the window to make a phone call, Yaya stared at his mouth shape, feeling a chill in her heart.

From the corner of the eye, she caught a glimpse of Boss Shi seeming to glance towards her, Yaya silently closed her eyes, and continued to pretend to be asleep.

The car was still driving on the dark road and would enter the urban area in half an hour. Boss Shi said softly, "Boss Qiu will be there to welcome us. I think we should be safe."

Yaya smiled slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Shi."

Boss Shi paused for a moment, then suddenly said: "My name is Shi Long."

He didn't know why he told this woman his real name. He smuggled to New York with a group of local snakes when he was very young. He has been in the gang since he was a child of seven or eight years old. For more than 20 years, everyone called himself Boss Shi. , even he himself sometimes thinks that his real name is Boss Shi.

If it weren't for Yaya's respectful "Mr. Shi", I'm afraid he would have truly forgotten that he is a human being.

Yaya was stunned for a moment, then smiled with crooked eyebrows, "This name sounds very domineering."

Shi Long pursed his lips and smiled, staring intently at the driveway ahead.

Soon, the car arrived at the destination, and from afar, they saw a group of people standing in front and blocking the aisle. The leader was Qiu Mingji, who was staring at Yaya and Xiaodong in the back seat of the car from afar.

Boss Shi got out of the car, and was about to stretch out his arms to hug Xiaodong, but Yaya had already hugged the child in her arms, Shi Long was slightly startled, then lowered his head and smiled, and let go of his hands.

Yaya hugged Xiaodong and got out of the car, and waved to Qiumingji. Qiumingji breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two were safe, and turned to look at Shilong, "Thank you for your hard work this time."

Shi Long shook his head, "As long as you have food with the boss, it doesn't matter whether you work hard or not."

Qiu Ming continued to smile and reached out to pat Shi Long's shoulder, turned around and was about to say something when Shi Long, who had always been respectful in front of him, suddenly stretched out his hand into his arms.

Yaya saw it, and suddenly shouted: "Be careful! He has a gun!"

The bodyguard beside Qiu Mingji was stunned, and then quickly raised his pistol and shot at Shi Long. Shi Long trembled slightly, a bullet passed through his chest, and the pack of cigarettes in his hand fell slowly to the ground.

Everyone was stunned, and Yaya was also stunned. On the road just now, she saw Shilong's mouth shape clearly saying that she would kill Qiu Mingji when she saw him.

But how could this be?She rushed up to help Shilong who was lying in a pool of blood, tears streaming down her face.

"How are you? I'm sorry Shilong, it's all my fault, I'll call the doctor right away!" She was about to cry and call the emergency when Shilong grabbed her wrist tightly.

His eyes were slightly pale, the kind of struggle of a dying person, and he said with difficulty: "No...it's useless, Yaya, I originally wanted to kill... Qiu Mingji, but then... ...I've changed my mind, Yaya, you don't have to feel guilty, kill Qiu Mingji, I will be killed on the spot, if I don't kill Qiu Mingji, I will go back to a dead end, left and right are just... ahem, it's just a dead end... I'm dead, it doesn't matter..."

His nostalgic gaze slightly lifted up to look at the starry sky. After coming to New York for more than 20 years, he knew for the first time that the stars at night were so bright.

"Yaya... Nice to meet you..." These were Shi Long's last words before his death.

Yaya silently buried her head on his body, crying tears streaming down her face, it was her fault, if she hadn't shouted out so hastily at that time, maybe Shilong is still alive today.

It was she who accidentally killed Shi Long's life.

Yaya's apology did not save Shilong's life, Qiuming stepped forward to check his breath, and sighed slightly, "He is dead."

Xiaodong who had been by the side suddenly looked at Qiu Mingji coldly, "You killed Uncle Shi."

Qiu Mingji smiled wryly, so what if he killed him?In this world, survival of the fittest is the natural way of survival. He let others go, but who can let him go?

Xiaodong is still young, maybe he always has a black and white view of right and wrong in his mind, but one day he will grow up and begin to understand that this world is not only black and white, but also a gray color between good and evil. zone.

And Qiu Mingji has survived in such a gray area for so many years.

It is simply a fantasy that a good man from a foreign land with a sense of justice wants to find a way out in the turmoil in New York.

Qiu Mingji didn't think he was a good person, but he wasn't a bad person either.

He was sitting on the bar counter drinking wine quietly, when suddenly a woman sat next to him, he raised his head, just caught a glimpse of Yaya's smiling face, "Drinking alone, don't you feel bored?"

He pushed her a bottle of wine, "Why don't you drink with me."

After a short two-sentence exchange, neither she nor he spoke any more, just quietly enjoying the anesthesia of alcohol.
