bullets and roses

Before being discharged from the hospital, Gu Zhubai promised to take Luo Muxiao to visit Luo Jianhua.

But when it was really his turn, Luo Muxiao felt a little timid because of his closeness to his hometown.

To be honest, he didn't know how to face Luo Jianhua.Logically speaking, he should have stood by Yu Meifeng's side and resolutely resisted Luo Jianhua's cheating behavior, but... After all, he was his father.

Moreover, for more than 20 years, Luo Jianhua has definitely treated him very well.

Although Luo Jianhua is very busy, every time he enters the hospital, big or small, when he opens his eyes, Luo Jianhua and Yu Meifeng will definitely accompany him by the bedside and watch over him, even though they are still in touch with each other while watching over him. Various calls from companies.

So one can imagine how shocked he was when he learned that there was another woman beside Luo Jianhua.

The car stopped in the prison, the door opened, but Luo Muxiao didn't get off for a long time.

Gu Zhubai sat on the side, turned his head to look at him: "Aren't you going to take a look?"

"How about... let's come back another day." Luo Muxiao said, "I haven't decided what to say to him yet, let's come back when I think about it."

Gu Zhubai closed his eyes, and said lightly, "As you wish."

Luo Muxiao sat in the car for a while.

It took a long time in the car before Gu Zhubai opened his eyes and asked him, "Shall I accompany you?"

Inside the prison, there is a smell similar to decay that can't be smelled unless you smell it carefully.

Probably because there is too much dirt in this world hidden here, so even the smell is unbearable.The expression on the face of the leading prison guard froze and became numb, probably because he was used to this kind of life.

Luo Muxiao pushed Gu Zhubai's wheelchair and followed behind him, the more he walked, the more he felt the urge to retreat.

But taking a look at Gu Zhubai, that timidity suddenly disappeared a lot.

Luo Muxiao waited nervously.

The prison guard entered inside, and not long after, a familiar figure pushed open the door and walked in, separated from him by a thick layer of glass.

Luo Muxiao stared blankly at the obviously much older face, and suddenly looked away, not daring to look at him again.

On the contrary, Luo Jianhua was very excited. He sat down, raised the phone, and tapped the glass lightly with his hand.Only then did Luo Muxiao pick up the phone.

Luo Jianhua called his name over there: "Mu Xiao, are you okay?"

All of Luo Muxiao's resistance suddenly softened at this moment, he thought, although Luo Jianhua has done so many bad things, there is one thing he has never changed, that is, he loves his own son.

Luo Muxiao sighed, shook his head: "It's okay."

"Is the heart okay?"

Luo Muxiao hid his hospitalization and nodded: "Well, there is no big problem, don't worry. What about you, how are you doing inside?"

Luo Jianhua smiled and said: "Of course it's not as comfortable as outside, but it's not bad, at least I feel a lot less guilty. When I was outside, I always thought that I would be discovered by someone, but now I can sleep I feel good, I feel the dawn."

Luo Muxiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

As early as when Luo Muxiao came in, Luo Jianhua saw Gu Zhubai who was behind him. Like Yu Meifeng, he did not interfere with Luo Muxiao's private life, probably because he knew how much Luo Muxiao liked Gu Zhubai. Zhubai, so I choose not to embarrass him.

The two chatted a little bit about life, Luo Jianhua's expression became more and more hesitant, and it took a long time before he asked: "Meifeng, she..."

Luo Muxiao's expression also turned slightly cold: "My mother is fine now."

"That's good, that's good..." Luo Jianhua sighed heavily, "A few days ago, I received the divorce agreement from her."

Luo Muxiao was stunned: "The divorce agreement?"

"Yeah." Luo Jianhua closed his eyes and let out a heavy breath, "I know she's not the kind of person who hates the poor and loves the rich, and he won't abandon me just because I'm in jail...he just can't accept Li Mei's existence .”

Luo Muxiao lowered his eyes and lowered his voice a bit: "You still know."

"Of course I know." Luo Jianhua smiled wryly, "I can understand her too. With Meifeng's personality, she definitely can't rub the sand in her eyes... I had expected such a result, but I had to help her. After all..." At this point, Luo Jianhua suddenly stopped, shook his head and smiled, "Forget it, let's not talk about it, we people of the previous generation will not involve you."

Luo Muxiao asked him: "Did you really sign the divorce agreement?"

"Yeah. I'm useless now. It's better to set her free and let her live a better life." Luo Jianhua suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I put a lot of money with Li Mei, It should be enough for you to live a carefree life for the rest of your life, but it's only enough for simple food and clothing, so don't spend money like you used to, understand?"

Luo Muxiao was taken aback for a moment, a feeling of soreness suddenly surged in his heart: "For me?"

"Yes," Luo Jianhua nodded, "There is still a sum left for Meifeng. You can go directly to Li Mei and tell her that I asked you to come and get it from her, and she will give it to you."

"Are you sure?" Luo Muxiao looked at Luo Jianhua suspiciously, "I don't think that woman surnamed Li is a good person."

"Don't worry, Aunt Li will give it to you." Luo Jianhua smiled, "I know her character, she won't do that kind of greedy thing."

Having said that, Luo Muxiao always had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Luo Jianhua finally gave the divorce agreement to Luo Muxiao, and said: "I was sentenced to five years, with three years of probation. I shouldn't be too old when I come out. If you can make a comeback by then, Dad will let you go back to the past. A good life."

"Dad..." Luo Muxiao felt for a moment that his throat was blocked by something, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The figures of Luo Jianhua and Yu Meifeng are constantly intermingling in his mind at this moment. One left him the little money he had left, and the other made a plan a long time ago to leave him with the rest of his life. With enough food and clothing, Luo Muxiao really doesn't know whether he is lucky or unlucky.

Unfortunately, his originally good life came to an abrupt end because of Gu Zhubai, but fortunately, he has such a pair of parents who love him deeply even at this time.

Coming out of the prison, Luo Muxiao felt comfortable when he smelled the air outside.

Although Gu Zhubai deliberately avoided it just now, he still inevitably heard some conversations between the two of them. Although he didn't know who Li Mei was, he didn't really want Luo Muxiao to have money, at least if he didn't have money. , Luo Muxiao can temporarily rely on him.

But fortunately, Luo Muxiao has no plans to find Li Mei for the time being.

The two went straight home.

Luo Muxiao didn't give the divorce agreement to Yu Meifeng, but folded it and put it in a drawer. What he thought was that if Yu Meifeng didn't ask, he would just let this divorce agreement never see the light of day.

The swelling of Luo Muxiao's leg has subsided, but he still needs another dose of medicine, he still dare not do it himself, just looking at the bloodstains, the pain is so painful that there is no way, Gu Zhubai can only do it himself.

He was wearing a pair of tight jeans today, so he had no choice but to take them off.

Luo Muxiao realized the embarrassment after taking it off halfway, and awkwardly picked up a small towel to cover the important parts, his face turned red.

Gu Zhubai didn't think too much about it, he took off the band-aid seriously, and applied some medicine on it.

"Hiss—" As soon as Luo Muxiao's knee caught cold, he shrank back suddenly, moved a little uncomfortable, and said, "It hurts."

"This is going to scab over." Gu Zhubai said, "It still hurts?"

"Yeah. It hurts." Luo Muxiao blinked aggrievedly, "It hurts to fall down the stairs, but if you use alcohol to poke it, it will hurt even more."

Gu Zhubai said with some helplessness: "If you don't take the medicine, maybe it will fester."

"It will hurt even more if it festers."

"Then..." Luo Muxiao's foot trembled, but he still stretched out, "Let's take the medicine."

Luo Muxiao has been squeamish since he was a child, afraid of suffering and pain. Yu Meifeng's biggest headache is when he is injured or sick. Every time he has to use all his strength to coax him, it's better to be older. The medicine is not so difficult to feed, but he is still afraid of pain.

Especially before the heart was replaced, every time he fell ill, he would be covered in cold sweat from the pain, probably because his pain nerves were extremely sensitive, so he felt pain much more deeply than ordinary people.

The place he protects the most is also his heart, because he knows that it is the place where his whole body hurts the most.

But sometimes it's unavoidable that emotions can't be controlled, especially after meeting Gu Zhubai.

Gu Zhubai managed to coax him to finish applying the medicine and put on a new bandage: "Put on your pants."

"Oh." Luo Muxiao straightened his legs and put on his pants with some difficulty. As soon as he raised his head, something was stuffed into his mouth, and a sweet taste spread in his mouth.

He froze for a moment before asking, "What?"

"Sugar." Gu Zhubai finished, "Remember to brush your teeth after eating. Otherwise, a toothache will kill you."

"Yeah." Luo Muxiao sucked the candy in his mouth, suddenly felt an indescribably complicated emotion, "When did you buy it?"

"I didn't buy it, it was given by my colleagues in the company."

Luo Muxiao couldn't think of anyone who would have the guts to give candies to Mr. Gu.

After all, his face that was about to smile or not was so frightening to look at, how dare he get close?Probably he, Luo Muxiao, was the most courageous.

But sugar is still very sweet.

Luo Muxiao finished eating in twos and a half, but there was still a sweet taste in his mouth, and he wanted to ask: "Is there any more?"

"It's gone, just one." Gu Zhubai said, "Go and brush your teeth."

"No, I'll go later," the child wanted to continue tasting the sweet taste left in his mouth, "I'll taste the remaining taste."

Gu Zhubai gave a short laugh, and there was still some smile in his eyes.

Before Luo Muxiao had time to sigh, the other party laughed again, and another sweet thing was stuffed into his mouth.

"This time it's really the last one." Gu Zhubai said.
