Chapter 41 Chapter Forty-One

Regardless of my mother's obstruction, I took a kitchen knife and opened the door without saying a word. I guessed right, they were standing at the door again. They used to be sailors under my father. They changed their faces when my father died, and each of them was carrying a stick. Come to collect debts, with ambiguous and obscene smiles on their faces, every time I see them, I can't help being disgusted. "Charlotte, when is your family going to pay off the debt?" A man in a gray shirt smiled at me strangely, showing a row of yellow dies. I was angry: "You have never finished, the pension for my father's death has not been paid yet, when did my family owe you a debt, you owe us, okay?!"

The man in the gray shirt began to laugh strangely: "Just like Xia Yuanhang? If he dies, he will pollute the sea, and he still wants a pension. It's a dream!" Another man with a stick yelled: "Xia Yuanhang, a coward, didn't do good things when he was alive, but left a beautiful daughter after his death. Haha, does he think that he can pay off his debts by giving birth to a beautiful daughter?" A group of wretched men laughed lewdly. "Fuck! You are not allowed to insult my dad!" I was in a hurry, and angrily swung the kitchen knife in front of me, but I didn't have much strength after all, and my panic only provoked more wanton laughter from the men.

"Remember, Charlotte, you owe our Chen family 30 million. It's RMB. Remember, it's not Japanese yen, let alone Vietnamese Dong, but RMB!" The leading man put his stick on the ground and took it out of his pocket. He took out a few brand-new one-hundred-yuan bills and flicked them in my face on purpose. I poohed him in disgust. "Do you want it? Hehe." The man's Adam's apple rolled, and he let out a low mocking sound: "To tell you the truth, Xia Yuanhang's two million pension has already been paid out..." I was surprised: "What did you say?!"

"It's a pity..." He sneered: "We have already been divided by our brothers, you still want it? You beg me! Damn, when Xia Yuanhang was alive, he persecuted our brothers a lot. Every time he went to sea, We are not allowed to move a cent of the cargo, tell me, is there such a captain who doesn't know how to behave?" A group of men behind laughed loudly: "Oh, in those years, our brothers really deserved to die, so Xia Yuanhang deserved to die, he should have died a long time ago!" I understood their thoughts in an instant, and tears rolled out unconvincingly: "My dad is doing his duty impartially! It's okay for you shameless greedy ships, even my dad's pension has to be swallowed, you still You're not a human, you bastard, I want to sue you..."

"Sue? Little Charlotte, you sue?" What I attracted was another burst of laughter, "You don't even look at the status of the Chen family in the south. You are the one who can sue? Haha, brother A few, murder and arson are not illegal, you go and sue, if you still don’t pay the debt, brother will sue you.” Another person answered: "Actually, it's not impossible to return the pension to you, haha, little Charlotte, your father didn't give you this face just for show. How about it, think about it? Come with us buddies If you sleep for one night, I will give you 10,000, and if you sleep for half a year, you can get all the pension back, what a cheap deal." He turned his head and laughed at his buddies, "Xia Yuanhang, I know, You will be happy too, don't you think?"

"Haha, Boss, you really have vision, why don't we take a bet? Bet on whether this girl is still a chick?" "Oh, I bet she's still a baby, look at her like this, hahahaha..." "Little Luoluo, tell us, you are still a young child, ah ha ha ha, brother will give you 21 thousand nights?" In a moment of grief and hatred, I threw a knife into the man's crotch. Accompanied by an earth-shattering scream of pain, the man squatted on the ground holding his crotch, unable to straighten up for a long time. "Stinky bitch, you're looking for death!"—They were about to come up to beat people with their sticks, when they were suddenly stopped by a group of people rushing in from the yard, "Hey, hey, make way, make way, what are you doing? Get out of the way "——These people were all big-bodied and wearing standard security uniforms. The group of hooligans who were arrogant before saw them suddenly withered and retreated in a panic, even ignoring their boss who fell to the ground and screamed in pain. up.

I saw a limousine parked at the door, and a handsome young man came out of the car. He was a frequent visitor to our house when my father was there. He was none other than Chen Xin. His face was young and clean, and he was dressed in a suit. It is also very appropriate and reasonable, except for the emerald wrench on his thumb, which is slightly rich, the temperament of his whole body can only be described as vigorous. "I've only been away for two months, why did this happen? Old Wu, what are you doing lying on the ground?" Chen Xin glanced around slowly, and kicked the guy on the ground again.

The hooligan boss faltered: "Young master, Xia Yuanhang's ship was shipwrecked and lost 3... 30 million worth of goods. Before you go out, you have to ask the Xia family to pay off the debts. Brothers, it's only... for you!" you……" "When did I say such a thing?" I saw Chen Xin squint his dangerous eyes, and he touched his finger: "I said, it was just an accidental shipwreck. A batch, but if Sea Dragon King wants to take it away, we can't complain...Old Wu, do you think so? I heard that you also swallowed Xia Yuanhang's pension?" That old Wu's face turned ashen immediately, and he ran away like shit.

"Hey, it's a pity that I lost Xia Yuanhang, and this is the biggest loss." Chen Xin sighed, with endless regret and nostalgia on his face, then he stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on my face. "Lolo," I heard him say, "don't cry, you have a good father. I have more than 200 boats under my command. Your father is the only captain who has been at sea for 20 years without embezzling cargo. He is the greatest Captain, as a daughter, you must be proud of this, and I will not give you any less of your father's pension." I felt sore and cried again, his fingertips rubbed against my face gently, this was the first time I got so close to him, this high-spirited and unattainable man, the only son of the Chen family, Chen Haiyun My successor, he would actually comfort me so much, the past buried by the sea, I can’t help but get my eyes wet whenever I mention it, and the light of that summer, flying to the other side of the ocean in the deep and shallow light and shadow The young man may be destined to be forgotten by me.

——"Lolo, you are so beautiful, be my girlfriend." That winter, there was a man, he was like a hero who fell from the sky in a dream drama, he hugged me who was crying, and said affectionately: "Marry into the Chen family, I have liked you for a long time." After that, I became Chen Xin's girlfriend, and he took me to all kinds of occasions. I never thought that there would be another bustling world full of sensuality and beauty in Los Angeles. One time, when Chen Xin, Zhou Hui and other friends came to pick me up from school, Ren Jiayue and I happened to come out from the club. That day Zhou Hui was handsome in a white suit, and Ren Jiayue had fluttering ponytails, talking and laughing, coming and going, they Also made a pair.

Chen Xin said to me once: "You said that your good friend is very similar to you, but I never believed it. When I saw it, I felt that there was still some similarity. To tell you the truth, Zhou Hui tried to poach my corner several times. Oh." The juice in my mouth spurted out. Chen Xin snorted: "Luo Luo is so beautiful, of course I won't give it up to him. Fortunately, he likes your classmate now, or I will break up with him." I laughed at him: "Didn't everyone say that brothers are like brothers and feet, and women are like clothes? How can you abandon brothers for women?" Chen Xin grabbed my small nose, hugged me and said, "You are not clothes, you are my ribs." Another summer, Chen Xin called a group of friends to celebrate my 18th birthday. The place was in his villa, and the place was grand. I don’t know how much he spent. The champagne alone was enough I am sad. I grabbed him and said, "It's enough for you to have a heart. It's a waste to spend so much money." Chen Xincai ignored me. He took out a black dress from an exquisite box and asked me to wear it. He said that it was specially brought from Beijing, and it was made by the chief fashion designer in New Delhi. It was originally custom-made. It was specially made for me, but that bastard Zhou Hui couldn't put it down after seeing it, so he also ordered one to give to Ren Jiayue. I said, "It doesn't matter, we are best friends anyway, and we look more like twins in the same style." Chen Xin kissed me on the face: "It's good to have your mentality. My last girlfriend bumped into someone because of the dress, and she wanted to break up with me." I despise in my heart, the girls in the upper class are too particular, then I followed Chen Xin to greet his friends at the banquet, Chen Xin said, they are all young people, everyone let go. But I couldn't find Ren Jiayue and Zhou Hui after searching for a long time. It stands to reason that they are so sticky and should be together wherever they go. I was wearing that very beautiful little dress. I asked Chen Xin: "Ah Xin, Ah Xin, why didn't Ah Hui come?" Chen Xin said: "Ah Hui has gone to eat, Luo Luo doesn't have to wait for him." Chen Xin went to deal with a group of cronies again. I ate the cake stupidly, but I still didn’t wait for Ren Jiayue. While Chen Xin wasn't paying attention, I sneaked up to the second floor to look for her. Those golden lights made my eyes hurt. For some reason, my heart was pounding. The door of her room was unlocked, and I opened it as soon as I twisted it. Yes, and then what I saw was a wall of blood... and Zhou Hui whose eyes were red like a devil, and Ren Jiayue whose mouth was gagged. Zhou Hui grabbed Ren Jiayue's hair and kept banging her head against the wall. Ren Jiayue was like a puppet who had lost her soul, covered in bright red blood. I only learned about it from Lao Ren's post many years later. It turned out that Jiayue was pregnant with Zhou Hui's child at this time, but Zhou Hui was unwilling to take responsibility. I was frightened and stupid at the time, I have never seen such a scene in my life, is that still Jiayue, is that still Zhou Hui, I stood there, and I screamed. Then Zhou Hui threw Ren Jiayue away, and he came towards me. At the same time, there was a commotion downstairs. I remember Chen Xin hurried up. Then, my only consciousness was lying on a white hospital bed in the hospital. In the closed ward, various large-sized syringes pushed unknown liquids into my body. Apart from numbness, it was pain. Extermination, medical malpractice, investigation, going abroad, asshole... all kinds of words kept flashing in my mind, my whole body was in pain like it was going to explode, I wanted my mother who was alone, I wanted my father who was buried in the sea, I think of the boy far away on the other side of the earth, I stretch out my hand weakly, I can't grab anything. I thought I was going to die, but when my consciousness came back to my body again, I was lying in a mental hospital. My mother said that it was a doctor who finally found out his conscience and sent me in. After a few years, I will be fine. They can't find us. I asked in confusion: What are they?What doctor?What's wrong with me? I have amnesia. Later we left our hometown, the city I was born with its name in, and we went far to the north, and I forgot about the past. But I never thought that the past would find me again.
