Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

The next day, Xu Rendong came to City B alone.

His idea is simple: since he can't find Lian Qiao, he should find Lian Qiao's father.

Although his knowledge of Lian Qiao's father was limited to him being a doctor, the surname "Lian" was rare. There are only a few dozens of large and small hospitals in City B, even if Xu Rendong went to each family to check, he would be able to find this "Doctor Lian" anyway!

Easier said than done.First of all, he browsed all the official websites of the hospital he could find, trying to find Lian Qiao's father in the expert introduction. Director "Lian" found a few, but just looking at the photos, they don't look like Lian Qiao.

He went around to various hospitals and did not even find Qiao's father, but found countless "Doctor Lin" and "Doctor Nian".

Three days passed quickly, Xu Rendong found nothing, and even Joe still couldn't get in touch.Every night Xu Rendong turned on the live broadcast room, staring at the empty black screen in a daze.

He thought that even Joe was probably very anxious at the moment, wondering if he would do something impulsive.

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, Xu Rendong couldn't sleep at night.Early the next morning, he embarked on a journey of searching for "Doctor Lian".

This time, he changed his mind.Every time he went to a hospital, instead of asking the nurse at the medical guidance desk, he went to the scalper near the registration window.

The bigger the hospital, the busier the nurses are, and they don't have much time to take care of him.Scalpers are different. Seeing Xu Liandong's extraordinary temperament, he knows that he is a master who is willing to pay.Xu Rendong soon got important information.

There is an expert surnamed Lian in XX Hospital who just came back from a meeting in the province.There will be a specialist clinic tomorrow!

So Xu Rendong paid another sum of money and got Director Lian's expert number.Arrived at the hospital early the next morning.

The specialist clinic was extremely busy, and a large group of people sat in the waiting area, all waiting impatiently.Xu Rendong looked towards the consulting room from a distance, and at a glance he saw the director of Lianda surrounded by several interns.His heart skipped a beat.

That's right!This is Lian Qiao's father!

Those facial features, that demeanor, are simply the social elite version of middle-aged Lian Qiao!

Xu Rendong's heart beat faster, and he couldn't help walking towards the consulting room, but was stopped by the nurse at the triage desk.

"What's the hurry! Let's go in when your number is called!"

Xu Rendong wanted to explain, but other patients also screamed.

"That's right! You are young and have no rules at all! Don't you know how to line up!"

"He's a pretty handsome guy, but unfortunately he doesn't have a tutor!"

Xu Rendong was anxious, but he could only hold back his temper and wait for the doctor honestly.He waited from 07:30 to 11:30. Seeing that there were still more than forty numbers to arrive, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He took the registration form and asked the nurse: "When will the director's clinic end? How long will it take?" saw me?"

The nurse had been busy all morning, and she must have been exhausted. She waved her hand impatiently and said, "You will see what you see. The director will not leave work until he has read all the numbers. Don't worry!"

Xu Rendong returned to his seat resentfully, thinking that it's no wonder Lian Qiao couldn't find a chance to communicate with his parents.His father is so busy, let alone parent-child communication, I'm afraid he won't even have time to eat.

Sure enough, when Xu Rendong's name finally sounded on the radio, it was already 01:30 in the afternoon.

When Xu Rendong entered the consulting room, the row of interns around Director Lian raised their heads in unison.The eyes of the two girls brightened, as if they had seen a rare sight.Director Lian just glanced at him quickly and asked him to sit down a little tiredly.

Xu Rendong cut to the chase, saying that he was not actually here to see a doctor, but to talk about Lian Qiao.Director Lian's complexion changed, and due to the presence of interns, he had no choice but to say in a deep voice: "Okay. I still have a few patients to see here. Please go to the empty consultation room next door and wait for a while. I will come right away."

Lian Qiao's father didn't throw the cup to make him go away on the spot, which made Xu Rendong feel a little relieved.He obeyed and waited obediently next door, and after another half an hour, Director Lian finally came.

When he came in, he closed the door with his backhand, and he didn't bring the intern with him.Xu Rendong got up quickly, and introduced himself solemnly: "Hello, Uncle Lian, I am Lian Qiao's friend Xu Rendong."

Director Lian looked him up and down: "What do you want from me?"

Hearing his tone, it seems that he doesn't know Xu Rendong's identity.Xu Rendong thought for a while and said, "I can't get in touch with him, so I'm a little worried. Is he at home now?"

Director Lian said decisively, "Not here."

Xu Rendong: "Before he left, he told me that he had something to talk to you about when he got home. Didn't you see him?"

Director Lian snorted coldly: "He came back, but left again. I don't know where he is now."

Xu Rendong pretended to be flustered and took out his mobile phone: "Then we have to call the police immediately! None of us can contact him, don't let something happen!"

When Director Lian saw this, he couldn't help being startled, and hurried forward to stop him: "No, no, no need to call the police..."

Xu Rendong was surprised, and asked sincerely: "Why?"

Director Lian coughed: "Actually...he is at home. There is something at home, so I didn't bother to contact you..."

Xu Rendong asked sincerely again: "What happened to your family?"

Director Lian: "Hey, this, it's not convenient to say..."

Xu Rendong repeatedly said: "Understood, understood..." The subject changed, and he said, "Actually, I came to him because I have a personal matter, so I have to talk to him face to face..."

Director Lian: "What's the matter?"

Xu Rendong: "Ahem, this, it's not convenient to say..."

Director Lian: "..." Why does he feel that this young man has set him up?

Under Xu Rendong's half-coaxing and half-deception, the guilty Director Lian finally agreed to take Xu Rendong home.Xu Rendong was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't show any emotion on his face.Sitting in Lian Qiao's father's car, Xu Rendong behaved gentle, courteous and thrifty all the way, with an attitude of a humble junior.

In fact, he had even figured out how to pick the lock to save people.

Lian Qiao's family lives in a high-end residential area close to the suburbs, with a huge green area.It was evening and the sunset was just right. Many residents were walking on the grass with their children and dogs.

The car drove to a residential building and stopped.Lian Qiao's father led Xu Rendong up to the seventh floor, and when he opened the door, a middle-aged woman in an apron greeted him.

Xu Rendong shouted "Hi Auntie", but Director Lian said that this was their nanny, and then left the nanny to greet Xu Rendong, and went to the inner bedroom by himself.

Xu Rendong noticed that before he entered the bedroom, he opened the lock with a key.

Soon, there was arguing in the bedroom.

The distance was too far, Xu Rendong couldn't hear the content of the quarrel, and couldn't tell if it was Lian Qiao's voice.The nanny was pouring him tea, and when she heard the quarrel, she sighed and shook her head.Xu Rendong tried to ask her about Lian Qiao's situation, but the nanny kept silent, apparently Lian Qiao's father had already ordered her to do so.

However, Xu Rendong's guess was soon confirmed.

Pat, clack, clack...the sound of slippers slapping on the floor.A man ran out of the bedroom in a hurry, and while running, he turned his head and shouted: "Dad, you are breaking the law! You can't lock me up like this!"

He ran so fast that he even lost one of his slippers.Xu Rendong got up to meet him, the man bumped into him unexpectedly, and he embraced him.

"Fuck!" Lian Qiao was startled, subconsciously wanting to earn money.Xu Rendong hugged him tightly, and said in a trembling voice:

"……it's me."

Lian Qiao opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and countless emotions flashed in his eyes, as if he wanted to say a thousand words.However, when he opened his mouth, he just yelled in a crying voice: "Brother Liandong!"

"Hmm." Xu Rendong felt that his voice was a little choked, he forced himself to behave like an adult, and stroked Lian Qiao's head comfortingly, "I'm here to save you."

Lian Qiao's father followed closely behind. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw his son hugging the man, and his jaw dropped in shock.At this moment, he completely lost the demeanor of Director Lian Da, pointed at Xu Rendong regardless of etiquette, and said with trembling fingers: "You, you... what are you doing?!"

Xu Rendong took a deep breath.As the older party, he felt that he had to stand up and protect Lian Qiao at this time.

But before he could speak, Lian Qiao suddenly took a step forward and held his hand in a bragging manner: "—he is my partner!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was shocked.

Not to mention Qiao's father, even Xu Rendong felt that Lian Qiao's coming out of the closet was too sudden and did not prepare people mentally.The aunt who was eating melons silently at the side also walked away quietly at this time.As the nanny of a high-level intellectual family, she knows which melons are edible and which ones will lose her job.

Even Qiao's father was still in great shock, which made Xu Rendong a little embarrassed.He was afraid that the old man would be too stimulated and his heart couldn't stand it, so he wanted to help him sit down, and said politely: "Don't be angry, let's sit down and talk, shall we?"

Lian Qiao's father threw his hand away angrily: "Is this your house or mine, when will it be your turn to invite me to sit?!"

Xu Rendong felt that what he said made sense, so he turned to look at Lian Qiao.

Lian Qiao understood and said sincerely: "Then let me tell you. Dad, you sit down first, let's have a good talk, okay?"

Lian Qiao's father looked at his son's sincere and innocent big eyes, and suddenly remembered that Xu Rendong had the same expression when he was tricked by him in the hospital. He couldn't help being furious, and shouted angrily, "Don't sit down!"

Lian Qiao & Lonicera: "..."

Liandong: "Then stand and talk."

Lian Qiao is as good as others: "Then let's stand and talk."

Lian Qiao's father: "..." What the hell are you!Answer Bug? !It's really maddening!

Although the old father was angry, he finally sat down and started a negotiation with the two young people.

When Lian Qiao came home this time, his original intention was to deal with the issues left over from history first, cultivate a relationship with his parents for a few days to relax, and then introduce Lonicera to them.Unexpectedly, this first step will collapse.The furious old father not only disagreed with him continuing to be an anchor, but even smashed his mobile phone and computer, closed his confinement, and only fed him three meals of porridge a day to calm him down.

Lonicera is now falling from the sky. Although it saved him, it also disrupted his plan.So Lian Qiao resigned himself to fate and said, "I don't need to be an anchor, but you have to accept Lonicera and admit that he is my partner and a member of our family."

The old father resolutely refused: "No."

Lian Qiao was taken aback.

Liandong took the initiative to give in: "I can talk about my matter later, but his live broadcast can't be delayed any longer. It's better to let him resume the live broadcast first..."

The old father interrupted cruelly: "No."

Lonicera was also stunned.

The old father glared at the two of them angrily, "Work and marriage are important events in life, so there is no reason to bargain?"

Even Joe was angry: "This is not okay, that's not okay, are you trying to force me to death?!"

The old father shouted: "I don't listen to this, I don't listen to that, I think you want to kill me!"

Even Xu Liandong doesn't know how to deal with family relations, and he also knows that at this moment, swords are on the verge of breaking out, and it is impossible to reach a mediation.He frowned, and was about to persuade Lian Qiao to calm down, but he saw Lian Qiao stand up abruptly, and shouted out of control, "Then I'll show you my death!"

Liandong and Lian Qiao's father changed their expressions instantly, and before they could react, they saw Lian Qiao jumping onto the balcony.

Lian Qiao's father was shocked: "What are you doing? Come down!"

"I don't!" Lian Qiao lost his temper, not only refused to listen to the persuasion, but even continued to climb outside the railing with hands and feet.

"Lian Qiao!" Xu Rendong snapped, "Stop making trouble, come down!"

Xu Rendong's scolding was obviously more effective than the old father's, Lian Qiao paused, and his expression was obviously timid.

The old father hurriedly dissuaded him, and said everything in earnest, but Lian Qiao still held on to the railing, looking angry.Xu Rendong didn't talk nonsense with him, and went straight to arrest him.

The old father was still worried about whether Liandong's rash action would irritate Lian Qiao. Unexpectedly, Lian Qiao didn't even dare to hide. He curled up like a kitten, and let Xu Liandong grab his arm and began to drag him in. .

While climbing along the pole, he smiled obsequiously: "How dare I really jump, I just want to scare him..."

Xu Rendong scolded: "You are crazy! You are making fun of your own life! Is this something that can be used for fun?!"

Lian Qiao flattened her mouth and said aggrievedly, "I'm not doing it for you..."

The old father on the side saw this man training his son like a grandson, and felt sore.But the acid can't help, the most important thing is to save the son now.

Lian Qiao was dragged by Xu Rendong's arm and moved in little by little.Father Lian quickly reached out to help.

Seeing that he was about to climb back to the window, Lian Qiao grinned, ready to throw himself into Lonicera's arms.Suddenly, for some reason, his foot slipped, and he had no time to react, and quickly fell backwards.

Xu Rendong's pupils shrank suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Lian Qiao!"

In the blink of an eye, instead of letting go, Lian Dong pulled Lian Qiao closer.So of course, he was taken down as well.

"Son!—" Father Lian yelled heartbreakingly, watching the two young men fall from the seventh floor.

Time stopped abruptly at this moment——

Where Father Lian couldn't see, a silver-white metal door slowly opened in midair.

Without warning, the two young men hugged each other tightly and fell into the open elevator.

boom!

The elevator doors closed immediately.
