my coward

It was already late at night when April called, and Zhuo Guangyao was successfully dug out from the bed by the persistent ringing.

"My eldest lady..."

"Brother, you move out of the hotel right now. No kidding!"

April's voice was so cold and serious that he had never seen before. Zhuo Guangyao was really upset that his dreams were disturbed and he was ordered to move in the middle of the night.He hung up the phone quickly.The other party immediately called again, Zhuo Guangyao viciously pulled the phone line.Almost instantly, the phone by the bed rang.Zhuo Guangyao was so tormented, his mind slowly came to his senses, and he began to realize that his sister must have something important to do with his persistent phone calls, and the anger that was pent up in his chest at this thought also dissipated.

"Brother, Hongxing is doomed. The old man lost everything in the high seas this time, and he was also trapped there. He is just that precious daughter, who is in a hurry to go to the doctor. Her fiancé Su Mi, have you seen her recently?" Are you awake?"

Zhuo Guangyao frowned, "Why did I meet him? Besides, what does this matter have to do with you and me? Why are you in such a hurry?"

April was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, and Zhuo Guangyao's heart became more and more heavy. His little sister was a lot of people, but she was still an underage girl, so it was impossible for her to get involved in such things.

"I thought the old man was upset, so I always wanted to trouble him. He is usually very shrewd, and his words and deeds are impeccable. His only hobby is gambling. Half a year ago, I discussed with my friends in the circle to make a game. , Let that old bastard lose his fortune..."

"Zhuo Yaohua!"

Zhuo Guangyao was so angry that he directly called out his real name.He always thought that this little sister was tricky and mean, and not bad in nature, but he didn't expect that she would develop to the point where she could kill people now.

"No matter how much you hate him, you can't hurt him like this! Don't you know that if you are pressed in the casino, you will be torn apart?!"

April hummed aggrievedly, "I didn't want his life! We originally planned to wait for him to become insolvent, so we could buy Hongxing at a lower price and kill his limelight by the way. Besides, his mentality of a gambler, In the end, the loan sharks failed to make a comeback but got deeper and deeper, and I didn't ask him to do these things, it was all his own fault!"

"You are still sophistry!" Zhuo Guangyao was so angry that he wanted to hang up the phone again.

April probably realized that he was emotionally unstable, and hurriedly said: "His daughter is hating us recently. I have no problem here for the time being. You are also considered to be Zhuo's family. Now you don't even have a bodyguard around you, and you live in that crappy hotel all day long." It's too insecure here, move out quickly! My people will be here soon, you follow them, I've made arrangements..."

"Hasn't your people been here these days? They have been following me, but the tracking technology is a bit poor. I suggest you go back to the furnace and rebuild." Zhuo Guangyao deliberately sneered.

April gasped at the other end, her voice trembling: "I haven't sent anyone to follow you these days..."

Zhuo Guangyao frowned, took the phone and moved to the window, opened the curtain slightly and looked down.The silver-gray car that followed him back to the hotel at night was parked outside the hotel, quietly melting into the night.He could also see a flash of orange light on the driver's side through the windshield.

April's begging came from the phone: "Brother, run!"

Zhuo Guangyao pressed the decisive button, picked up his coat, walked out of the room quickly, and went straight to the parking lot.It is also thanks to this kind of old-style hotel that there is no underground parking lot, but directly parked on the spot outside the hotel, allowing him to accurately determine the location of the car.

Standing still in front of the silver-gray car, Zhuo Guangyao was already out of breath.With the nearby street lights, the scattered cigarette butts thrown out of the car window can be clearly seen.His heart was beating like a drum, and a name was ready to come out.

When Su Mi opened the car door and walked over, Zhuo Guangyao thought, "That's right, this is the person." It was only about ten days since we met last time, but Su Mi seemed to be a lot haggard, her cheeks were thinner, and her eye sockets were more serious. The deep depression made the brow bone more straightened, and even the lip color was lighter than before. This person was decadent and pale.

On late autumn nights, he simply put on a sweater, which was the same as before.But at that time, he wanted to be handsome and not warm, but now his eyes show that he doesn't care about anything.This look made Zhuo Guangyao startled, it was so similar to himself who abandoned everything and went to the island.

Su Mi threw away the cigarette butt in her hand, exhaled a puff of smoke, tilted her head and guessed: "How did you find out? I've been with you for so many days, and it's embarrassing to be caught suddenly in the middle of the night. Someone notified you?"

Zhuo Guangyao beat the ground secretly, why is this downcast person so cute? !On the surface, he still pretended to be calm, "I found out on the first day, and I wanted to ask...it's so late, have you eaten yet?"

Su Mi shrugged suddenly, probably thinking it was very funny, but she couldn't laugh out loud, her entire facial muscles twitched.

"I didn't understand you before, and you are the only one who can make me laugh. Do you want to continue to treat me to a meal? I owe a debt now, and I can save money for a meal." .”

Zhuo Guangyao generously invited him to eat a rice bowl in a small restaurant in the food street.The owner of the restaurant is a fat man with a scar on his face, his face is full of flesh, and there are still tattoos on his arms, and he is not very friendly to others.Seeing the two of them coming in, he glanced at them casually, and asked what they were eating, in a very cold voice.But the donburi served on the table is enough for one and a half people. The rice is pressed firmly, and the soup and dishes poured on the rice are piled up on the plain white plate. Two servings of radish and ribs soup were served.Zhuo Guangyao took a visual inspection and found that there were more ribs than radishes.

Facing the puzzled eyes of the two, the boss just explained lightly: "Soup, it's free." And left two sets of utensils.

Su Mi smiled and started. "He just ordered a meal for the two of us, and he probably sympathized with the two poor people. This soup is more than what he paid for the meal."

"Oh……"

"There's too much food, would you like to share some for me?"

"Oh……"

The two of them ate in silence, while the boss sat at the checkout counter with his chin in his hand, staring at them strangely.

"I thought you would order two. If the boss didn't bring the soup, you'd have to watch me eat it."

"...The rule of eating at home since childhood is that you can't eat after nine o'clock in the evening."

"The Zhuo family's family rules are very strict."

"Ah."

Zhuo Guangyao ate the radish in the soup one bite at a time, and didn't want to think whether the other party was trying to trick him.

"Your sister is not the same as you at all. Just by looking at it, it is absolutely impossible to think that she was born by the same mother. She has a set of tricks, buried a hidden danger for a long time and suddenly erupted. She bit her throat and never let go. Like the cheetah Like. You look like a little sheep.” Su Mi paused, and added: “Occasionally a wolf. Haha!”

Zhuo Guangyao still took a bite of a radish.

"Hongxing's business has almost been interfered with, and personnel affairs are also facing a major change. It's only a few days? It's going to change. Your sister is not ready for a day or two, is it? Xiao Mi is crying every day, no wonder, She is used to being the eldest lady, how could she have imagined that Hongxing would fall from power one day."

Zhuo Guangyao dried up all the radishes and began to eat the ribs, but Su Mi put down his chopsticks and sat upright.

"I owe her something, and I can't watch her suffer. Can you...can you persuade your sister to let her go?"

The chopsticks between Zhuo Guangyao's fingers trembled slightly.

"Actually, I have been regretting it since we met last time by the seaside road. If your feelings can be used to repay the debt, why can't the creditor be me?" Zhuo Guangyao raised his head and looked directly at Su Mi, "In your eyes Since feelings can be quantified by money, the Zhuo family is bound to win Hongxing this time, what price are you willing to pay if you want the Zhuo family to let go of the fat in your hands?"
