Chapter 24 Chapter 24

Ling Qingyuan, Ling Qingyuan, how could you let Cheng Hebai oversleep?he said to himself angrily.I sprinted all the way just now, but my heartbeat has not slowed down until now, and my chest seems to be equipped with an alarm clock.Ling Qingyuan had a hunch that he had made the biggest, possibly fatal, mistake since role-playing.

"Where did they go?"

"To the left, I didn't follow out to look."

"Boss, do you know about Lu Youshen?" Ling Qingyuan asked hastily with a flash of inspiration.

"Ah, what? There are deep roads and shallow roads. I haven't heard of it. I haven't heard of it. The students are all gone, and it's almost time to close the stall."

With Ling Qingyuan's level of observing words and expressions, he obviously felt that the boss was deliberately avoiding him.Just now he was sitting in the small shop watching the small black and white TV that was the size of a palm, now he stood up sullenly and closed the small stall under the eaves, regardless of Ling Qingyuan standing at the door of the shop, and drove him out.

"Boss, I beg you, that's my sister, he didn't wait for me, we missed it, hurry up." Ling Qingyuan broke through the gap as if his emotions suddenly came up - he really seemed to be in his twenties, The owner of this body lives a cramped life, and the only ones who depend on each other for life are a mother and a younger sister.

"Boss, do you know, tell me if you know." Ling Qingyuan said tearfully, he stopped the boss from looking for the hand that hurriedly closed the stall, and looked at the boss eagerly with anxiety and begging from the inside out.

"Hey..." The boss's sigh contained too much content.The translation, in short, means that my younger sister goes to school here. How could a person who lives in this area not even Boss Lu know.Ignorance ah ignorance.

The boss still stubbornly took back the small stalls that occupied the road, and the small shops were even more crowded.He beckoned to Ling Qingyuan, and winked for him to come in and speak.

"Why did you provoke such a ruffian?" The young man at the door stepped up the steps and entered the hut. The boss sighed and shook his head looking at the anxious young man and said, "Who doesn't know him, who dares to mention him." He did it again After a few seconds of mental struggle, perhaps because she thought that the girl was just a student, she couldn't bear to keep silent.

"Their group of villains are not only bold, but also have means. Without means, how dare they be blatant and carefree. Listen, go west, Yicang Lane, and the area around the vegetable market. Maybe there will be no letter. If If you can’t find it, don’t ask me about it.”

Cheng's family saves money, no mobile phone, only an old landline at home.Ling Qingyuan begged for the boss's cell phone, called home to explain the story, and asked Cheng's mother to call the police.Thanks to the boss, he ran all the way again.Ling Qingyuan was trying to recall what Cheng Lubai had said at the beginning, she said how she had found out about Lu Youshen, and where she saw his front teeth shining white against the sunlight.

He ran two steps to the west, which was also the direction Cheng Lubai left.He asked the roadside stall again if he had seen a pretty girl with such a look. Most of the hawkers said that the students were out of school, and it didn't matter whether she was pretty or not.

Obviously by looking for witnesses. Generally speaking, if he's a gangster, there's something that attracts him.money and women.Ling Qingyuan thought, in the current situation, if you ask everyone if you have met his sister, and those who know are timid and afraid to tell the truth to help him, it will be counterproductive.

Ling Qingyuan touched the pockets of his trousers, which were also the ones he usually wears, and his wallet and keys were also kept.He made up his mind and asked Lu Youshen to pay back the money and loan.

Yicang Lane is a small commercial area, with many small shops, leisure and entertainment, Internet cafes and gambling shops, next to the vegetable market, this area is full of shouting and noise near the evening.

Ling Qing originally thought that Cheng Lubai had some way to find Lu Youshen in the past, and he just found out by inquiring about it.He would go in every three or five stores to ask questions, and when he encountered a store with slot machines and game machines, he would hang out at the front desk and chat with people for a while.

"Recently, I made a small profit, which is just enough to pay back the money Lu Da gave me earlier. Hey, do you know where he is?"

At first Ling Qingyuan was a little bit reluctant to let go.Those second sisters who were looking at the store at the front desk always looked at him with suspicious or ignorant expressions.

Later, he decided to go all out, smashed his wallet on the counter, leaned sideways, his eyes were higher than the top, and added the line as if no one was there: "I made a small fortune recently, where is Lu Da, if he wants money, call him Come out and meet me."

Sure enough, in life, only acting skills are relied on.Ling Qingyuan didn't run a few houses before someone told him that Lu Youshen was out on errands and he had to wait if he wanted to see him.

"What good things he does can be more important than money."

"There are a lot of good things." The naughty doorman replied.

"It's so boring, I'm still waiting to make money. There's no time to wait for Boss Lu to come back after finishing his good work. I see him as a nobleman, and he doesn't care about my small loan. Don't let it go. I'll be there in two days." When the person leaves, it doesn’t matter if the money is given or not.”

The doorman chatted with Ling Qingyuan for a few more words, and they also felt that this was a bastard who had suddenly made a fortune by luck.If the bastard really ran away, Lu Youshen would not be able to get back the black loan that Lu Youshen gave him, and he didn't know who to vent his anger on when he turned around.Show him the way, if you can't find it, anyway, it has nothing to do with you.

"Do you know the old radio factory? At the end of Yicang Lane to the west, there are several rows of one-story houses. If you can find them, they are all there."

Ling Qingyuan thanked him defiantly, took the wallet and swaggered out of the shop, walked a few steps and immediately started running again. The T-shirt was completely soaked through with sweat, and the sweat dripping from his temples was still depleting the moisture in his body.

"Cheng Lubai, you must have nothing to do."

If something happened to her, Ling Qingyuan felt that he would regret for the rest of his life.She didn't take good care of her for her real brother, and didn't let the family who gave him a second life live in peace.

At this moment, he never thought about it, if his soul hadn't penetrated into Cheng Hebai's body, would the mother and daughter of the Cheng family still have a happy and peaceful life these days.If Cheng Hebai had died long ago, what would happen to their mother and daughter.

Ling Qingyuan didn't think of shirking at all.

He never thought that there is a cause and effect, whether everything about the Cheng family should be borne by himself.He is doing everything that Cheng Hebai should and will do, and he is even more strict with himself, because he was a consistent good citizen before: he is upright and has good morals.He does what he can, and does it well.He cares about his reputation, but he does not disturb the lives of those around him...

In a blink of an eye, he ran to the end of Yicang Lane. As the doorman said just now, he was surrounded by a block of one-story bungalows with shed-like roofs and high gray walls.Is it called the old radio factory? It does look like an old factory building.

Ling Qingyuan panicked. If Lu Youshen was hiding in a factory building, he would have to find the Year of the Monkey.Don't worry, he didn't stop at all.The sun has set, and the old factory area, which is like a square box, has become like a strange Rubik's cube.

"...Fate..."

When Ling Qingyuan heard the girl's shout, his hairs almost stood on end.He kept urging himself to hurry up and hurry up.

Turning another corner, he saw a shadow. In the darkness formed by the corner of the wall and the ground, the images of people standing there were jagged ghosts with teeth and claws.

Ling Qingyuan knew that he had found it.Surrounded by such a group of people was Cheng Lubai. Facing these fierce spirits, he was alone and at a disadvantage.However, the situation simply does not allow him to think it over before making a decision—to save people and lives first.

"Lu Youshen, do you still want your money?"

"Did you call Boss Lu's name?"

"Lu Youshen, let go of my sister. How much she owes you, [-] and how much interest can be calculated for a few weeks, I will pay you back, as long as you let her go."

Sen Li's figure loosened for a moment, and the crowd burst into laughter, as if sticky phlegm was stuck in his throat and he couldn't clear it no matter how hard he coughed.The group of dark things parted a little, and a figure emerged from among them.

"Sure enough, the money-giver came." The speaker was the one with the dirty throat. He had short stubble hair, a sleeveless T-shirt and big pants, stepping out of the triangular darkness and stepping into a place with some shimmering light.

This person is exactly Lu Youshen, he probably got the report from the door boy, and he is not surprised by the appearance of Cheng Hebai in front of him.

Ling Qingyuan had no idea, he had to quickly confirm Cheng Lubai's situation, if this girl was really touched by them, this bad situation would be multiplied exponentially, it was the last thing he wanted to see.In addition, he still needs to figure out the reason why this group of people pestered Lu Bai, and to delay time.

He believed that Cheng's mother had already called the police. No matter how unreliable the police were, no matter how difficult the place was and how tricky Boss Lu was, at least it was a guarantee of escape.

"Whatever you need, we can chat. What can a little girl understand." Ling Qingyuan said calmly.

"Talk, indeed, we can talk too much." Lu Youshen punched Ling Qingyuan in the stomach, and then two men with rough descriptions came up and grabbed his shoulders from left to right and pinched him to the wall.

Ling Qingyuan felt that his stomach was pierced again, and it hurt from the front side to the back.He endured the deep pain, looked up at Lu Youshen and said, "Isn't it just debt repayment? If you can say something reasonable, I'll listen. We don't need to get entangled in so much laborious work."

"Debt repayment?" Lu Youshen said with a sneer, "You've put my people in the office, and even sent a note to check on me. If I check, I'll let him check. I'll tell you, I'm not afraid."

The wretched man on the right raised his fist and was about to hit him down. Ling Qingyuan shivered calmly. Sweat flowed from his forehead and temples to his chin, and continued to fall down his neck.Outsmart, outsmart, he reminded himself.

"Boss Lu, can you tell me the number?" Ling Qingyuan pretended not to notice the fist hanging above his head, and yelled at Lu Youshen, "Do you still remember how many days and how much money? If you forget what is written in the loan agreement and ask for a price, I will not agree."

"Remember, why don't I remember." Lu Youshen waved his hand to tell the two men not to rush, but just pulled Ling Qingyuan up and held him against the wall.Then he wheezed and pulled the bellows: "I'm not good at arithmetic but I have a good memory. I remember the money lent to that chick on June 21th, and now it's July [-]st. One month and ten days have passed. It doubles according to a month In ten days, it will turn one-third more. Cut off the head and tail, give me [-]."

"I don't remember thinking that way."

"I do the calculations as I say." Lu Youshen said angrily, and he looked at the two men by the wall again, with the obvious attitude that if this brother cheats and refuses to pay, he will be beaten to death.

"Let me ask my sister how you made the decision at the time, I can't just listen to you." Ling Qingyuan insisted, looking through the darkness, looking at the corner where Cheng Lubai curled up and hid without hesitation.

"Let me see my sister. It's useless for you to hit me. I didn't bring cash, but a card."

Lu Youshen took a few mouthfuls, his thick lips turned over, like a horse snorting.He glanced into the corner and motioned for a thin young man standing there to drag the girl out.The young man did so.

Ling Qingyuan hurriedly checked whether her clothes were intact, and seeing that she was tugging at the front of her skirt and the corners of her skirt, she knew that the situation should be fine.Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the girl was thrown in front of him.

"Lubai, brother is here. Don't panic, don't be afraid." Ling Qingyuan also knew Cheng Lubai's current situation, so asking this girl was basically useless.So I just need to confirm that she is basically safe and sane.He comforted her and delayed a little longer.

Lu Youshen and his group were obviously impatient.

"Brother Lu, for 2 yuan, it's really not worth bothering you to mobilize people here. The labor fees paid by your brothers alone are more than this small amount of money. I think my sister is fine, and I don't care if it's more or less." Comparing with you."

"It's stuck in my trouser pocket. This brother can give it to you." As soon as he finished speaking, the gangster on the right put his hand into his trouser pocket, took out the wallet and threw it to Lu Youshen.

"What's the password?" Lu Youshen opened his wallet, the cash was only ten yuan in steel coins, and there was only one bank card.He pulled the card out and threw the bag aside.

"You said why do you keep catching a little girl, obviously the financial power is not in her hands."

"I'll ask again, what's the password."

The gangster on the left pinched Ling Qingyuan's neck against the wall, and kicked him on his left side with his knee a few times.A dull pain, worse than a bifurcation, stuck beneath the ribs.

"Brother Lu, why do you always have trouble with a little girl. Tell me, and I will give you the money willingly, and then we can get together and break up."

"Heh, it's so good to get together and get together, you have a good idea. Let me tell you, the money is mine, and the girl can't escape. Someone has taken a fancy to this girl, and begged to get it. Let me ask you again, what is the password, I'll try it right away, if you want to lie to me, I'll make your sister incapable of being a human right away in front of you."

Ling Qingyuan knew that this was really unbearable, so he spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva and said slowly: "[-]. There are [-] in the card, I won't lie to you, the main thing is that I didn't expect you to check it out today. If you want so much, there are still three thousand at home."

A younger brother took the bank card in a desperate manner, and sprinted [-] meters to the nearest teller machine.In a vacuum-like time, both sides are waiting anxiously.Ling Qingyuan thought that the money was hanging on Lu Youshen's forehead right now, and they were all absent-minded, so he was not afraid to ask: "Who is so rich that he can bother Brother Lu to take care of my useless sister."

"Don't worry about it. Someone wants this girl. I can collect money from both sides, why not do it. If you have to say something more, I can't give someone a complete girl. Tell me, in fact, she can't finish it down there. Complete, the hairy boy can't see it at all, can he?"

Unbearable comments arose around, and the vulgar and explicit words and sentences pierced the girl's thin clothes, her self-esteem and shame as nakedly as a knife.Cheng Lubai bit his lip and wept on the ground.Ling Qingyuan couldn't think of anything to comfort her, the comfort that could not plug her ears at this moment was empty, he just looked at Lu Youshen coldly, and accompanied Cheng Lubai to listen to their every obscenity and insult.

There were footsteps in the distance.The little boy who ran to the teller machine came back: "Brother, big brother, [-], that's all, I took it out."

"If you can get so much money in more than ten days, you are indeed promising." Lu Youshen took the pink note from the younger brother's hand and twisted it: "One thin dozen, it will be counted in two seconds."

"I still have some spare money at home, I'm afraid you think it's too little. I said Brother Lu, I don't have much capital now, but I can make money. You can spare my sister and me, and you can say anything. No one will kill a chicken that can lay eggs no."

Lu Youshen licked his thumb with his tongue, as if he was considering the sincerity of his words.A group of younger brothers around said that some rich masters gave more money, so that they could finish Cheng Xiaoniu's affairs;

Lu Youshen was obviously not greedy enough, he didn't want to let the hen go, and he didn't want to kidnap the girl directly.While thinking about it, the sound of cars came from the alley outside the factory shed area in the distance.

"Hey, let's do this for today. 3000 and two hundred yuan, remember, I'll charge you interest." He greeted his younger brother, and led a group of people away.

Sudden loss of support, Ling Qingyuan slid along the wall and sat on the ground. He covered his throat and coughed a few times. After recovering, he slowly touched Cheng Lubai's side: "Lubai, you're safe."

Cheng Lubai was still lying curled up, only turning her face from the ground to look up at her brother.She saw her familiar brother's face was clear and peaceful under the moonless starlight.She stretched out her hand to this man, as if touching the tenderness and strength she had never seen before.

Ling Qingyuan held the hand she extended, and wiped away the unstoppable tears from the corners of her eyes with the other hand: "My dear sister, we are safe."
