At noon the next day, Xi Xi woke up groggy. He was thinking about A Ke's matter in his heart, and he was about to get out of bed when he lifted the quilt.

Ah Man, who was standing by, supported him, "What are you doing?"

Xi Xi coughed twice, "A Ke is still in the other party's hands, I have to save him."

"Hey, if you go to rescue A Ke with a body like this with a high fever, you will pass out when you get downstairs." Ah Man helped him back to the bed, "Your wound has just scabbed and don't move around, A Ke has already passed out. I'm back, I'll call him for you."

Xi Xi, who was lying on the boat bed, frowned, "You're back?"

Ah Man hummed, "I ran back last night."

How could the other party let him go?

Xi Xi suppressed the doubts in his heart and saw A Ke cautiously pushed the door and walked in, "Boss?"

Xi Xi coughed twice, and waved at people with a hoarse voice, "Come, let me see."

A Ke quickly walked up to Xi Xi, "Boss, I'm fine."

Xi Xi looked him up and down, and after confirming that nothing happened, he let out a long sigh of relief, "How did you come back?"

A Ke glanced at Ah Man, and replied loudly, "I... I ran back while they were not paying attention."

Xi Xi looked at the child who seemed a little timid, and asked, "Are you scared?"

Ake shook his head.

Xi Xi asked, "Where have you been taken? Has anyone seen the other party?"

A Man was afraid that A Ke would slip up, so he pulled him away from the bed, "I just woke up and asked so many questions, and I don't feel too tired to panic."

Ah Man pushed A Ke outward, "A Ke, go out first and let the boss sleep for a while."

A Ke glanced at Xi Xi who was on the bed, then opened the door and went out.

Xi Xi withdrew his gaze and landed on Ah Man's face, "Is there something you're hiding from me?"

"How could it be?" Ah Man helped him cover the quilt, "I'll give you a bottle of water, and you can sleep again."

Xixi really couldn't lift his eyelids, he nodded at Ah Man, and fell asleep again.

A Ke ran down the stairs, grabbed the railing on the second floor and looked down at the crowd of people coming and going in the factory.

After watching for a while, I heard the discussions of the following people.

"Sister Ah Man told us to teach the one behind closed doors a lesson."

"I heard that person injured the boss yesterday."

"That's a lesson to be learned."

"Walk."

A Ke, who was standing on the second floor, looked at the direction in which the group of people were walking, felt moved, and chased after them.

The small door of the factory's grocery room was open, and Ah Ke stood at the corner next to it, looking into the room with his hands on the wall.

I saw the man who brought him back last night was tied behind his back and fell to the ground, and several people punched and kicked him.

Hearing the suppressed humming sound from the house, A Ke remembered the former boss in her mind.

A Ke frowned, turned her head back, took a bottle of water and ran to the door.

A group of people were beating people, and one of them stopped the brothers, "A Ke is behind."

Who doesn't know, the boss expressly forbids fighting in front of this little guy, A Ke.

Everyone stopped immediately, blocked the people behind with their bodies, and smiled at A Ke.

"Why is Xiao Ke'er here?"

A Ke squeezed the water bottle in her hand and said, "Sister Ah Man asked me to bring him water."

"Let's go."

"Then little Ke'er, let's go first."

Everyone glanced at each other, pushed and shoved away.

As soon as the person leaves, the blocked person is exposed in front of his eyes.A Ke turned around and closed the door behind him, holding the water bottle, he helped up the coughing man curled up on the ground.

Gu Yu let out a muffled snort as the wound twitched. He leaned against the iron frame behind him and looked at A Ke, "Thank you."

A Ke squatted on the ground and took a look at his bleeding abdomen, "You are injured."

"I'm fine." Gu Yu's hands were tied behind his back with a rope, he leaned back in a comfortable position and took a breath, "Have you seen him?"

Ake nodded.

Gu Yu straightened up, "He...how is he?"

A Ke was silent for a moment, looked at the anxious expression on the man's face, and shook her head, "High fever, the boss just woke up when I went."

Gu Yu pursed his lips, "His body..."

"Boss has been in poor health these years. When it rains, his legs will hurt a lot. When he is seriously injured, he will have a high fever and be unconscious for several days." A Ke lowered her head and played with a water bottle in her hand and said again, "Ah Sister Man said that this is the root cause of the old man's previous illness."

Gu Yu, "I want to see him."

A Ke shook her head, "Sister Ah Man won't let you see."

Gu Yu frowned, "I only saw him when I went up, and I just wanted to see if he was alright."

A Ke squeezed the water bottle tightly and hesitated.

Gu Yu moved in front of him, "I beg you."

A Ke looked at the man's pale face, and asked back, "Really just one glance?"

Gu Yu nodded, "You can follow me, we will come back after reading."

A Ke let go, "Okay, I'll let you go see him."

Into the night

Everyone in the factory was asleep. A Ke watched Ah Man come out of Xi Xi's room, ran to the hut, and untied the rope that bound Gu Yu.

Gu Yu stood up clutching his wound, staggering a bit while supporting the door frame and going out.He looked up at the uppermost room and walked up the stairs.

The stairs were very long, and the movement involved the wound on the wound, which made Gu Yu walk very slowly. He held on to the handrail, walked for a while and rested for a while, and finally stopped in front of the door.

He reached for the doorknob and stopped in mid-air.

After all, they haven't seen each other for six years since that parting. He disappeared in his world for six years. During these six years, he didn't know if he had changed, if he hated him, if...

But he wanted to see him, thinking about it all the time.

The doorknob was unscrewed, and Gu Yu pushed the door open.

The room is not big, it is a single room for living alone, there is a bed inside, and a small dim light is on beside the bed, which makes the room look very warm.

He stepped forward, and his eyes fell on the person lying on the bed who was drinking water.

The young man lay there with a pale face, his familiar face was stained crimson due to the high fever, he seemed to be sleeping unsteadily, his brows were furrowed.

It was him, really him.

Gu Yu raised his head to prevent the tears in his reddened eyes from streaming down.

He suppressed his emotions and walked to his bed.

The young man's exposed hand with needles was cold white, and Gu Yu could feel the coldness of his fingertips when he touched it.Those were the hands he had seen that night.It wasn't the slender and fair skin in memory, but a pair of hands with calluses and old fingers.

Just as Gu Yu wanted to touch it cautiously, the person lying on the bed frowned and hummed, "It hurts."

Gu Yu withdrew his hand and landed on his face.

The pain seemed to be carved into the depths of his soul, so that every injury would bring back his memories and make him babble in his dreams.

Gu Yu's heart ached.

He wished he could kill Lou Mingzhe now.

He stretched out his hand to touch Xi Xi's face, but his arms were grabbed by two hands.

Gu Yu turned his head to look, and met A Ke's slightly angry eyes.Gu Yu's arm was pulled by A Ke, and he was dragged out of the door.

Outside the room, A Ke lowered her voice and questioned, "You said you only took a look!"

Gu Yu couldn't argue with a hundred words.

A Ke got annoyed when she saw him, grabbed his arm and pulled him down the stairs.

The movement was so big that Gu Yu could feel that the wound in his lower abdomen had burst open again. He didn't make a sound, and was obediently dragged downstairs by the young man and thrown into the hut.

A Ke picked up the rope from the ground and tied his hands behind his back, "I shouldn't have believed your nonsense."

Thinking about going in just now, and seeing this man trying to plot against the boss, I feel angry.

A Ke tightened the rope tightly, watched the rope rub his wrists red, and then let go, "You stay here by yourself."

Gu Yu called people to stop, "Wait."

A Ke turned her head impatiently, "What's the matter?"

"Take good care of him for me."

Before Gu Yu finished speaking, the small door in front of him was slammed shut right in front of his eyes.

The next day, Gu Yu developed a fever.

The guard ran up to report the incident to Ah Man.

Ah Man looked down and snorted coldly, "It's not like he's dead, what are you making all the fuss about?"

The visitor lowered his head, "Then sister Aman just leave it there?"

"We don't have much medicine in the first place, so what do we use for him?" Ah Man turned and went back, "Leave him alone for a day, and send a letter to those people tomorrow, asking them to come and redeem them with conditions, don't Let people die in our place, bad luck."

A Ke stood downstairs, listening to everything she said.

He knew that the man was injured, and the wound had not been treated, and if it dragged on, it would cause inflammation and fever, and it would be very uncomfortable.A few years ago, he had seen the appearance of the boss.

A Ke clenched her hands tightly and ran downstairs.

He quietly walked to the small door, opened it a crack and looked inside.

The room was cold and damp with no lights. The man lay curled up on the ground, and he could see the blood staining the gauze that was originally wrapped.

A Ke stepped forward and wanted to go forward, but thinking of the man's dishonesty last night, she clenched her hands angrily.

He shouldn't have sympathized with him, A Ke pulled his foot back, and ran back again.

At night, A Ke lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and his mind was always intertwined with the image of the boss who was in pain a few years ago.

He was still young and didn't understand anything, so he was so frightened that he shrank in the corner.

A Ke sat up abruptly, ran upstairs to get gauze and iodine, and went to find Gu Yu.

He picked up a small lamp and pushed the room away.

Years of vigilance made Gu Yu turn over and look at him, "Who?"

"It's me." A Ke put the kerosene lamp aside, reached out to untie the rope that bound him, and helped him up from the ground.

Gu Yu looked at the gauze and iodine that he handed over, and his somewhat confused mind was a little dazed, "Why save me?"

A Ke sat cross-legged on the ground, "I don't think you are a bad person."

Gu Yu opened his clothes and removed the blood-stained gauze tied around his waist, "Why do you say that?"

A Ke stared at his injury and said, "I can see that you, like Sister Ah Man, care about your boss. You don't want anything to happen to your boss."

Gu Yu applied iodine on the wound, tied it up with gauze, and fixed his eyes on A Ke who was sitting in front of him.

The light in the room was dim, and the boy's face was innocent.

A Ke felt that Gu Yu's gaze was a little hot, and he asked out loud, "Why are you staring at me like this?"

Gu Yu came back to his senses and said, "I actually have a child too."

A Ke blinked her eyes and asked, "Where's the child?"

"I don't know." Gu Yu looked at A Ke's face and smiled, "But I know that if he lives and grows up to your age, he should be a child just like you."
