I'm not interested in money or women.

Chapter 142 Beijing, here I come again

"Shanshan, come back soon!"

"Going where? Home? What's wrong?"

"Don't ask anymore, just come home! Your parents..."

"What happened to my parents? Didn't they go to the capital?"

"They... Oh! Come back first, we'll talk later!"

"Uncle, I got off the plane, where are you?"

"Here! Come on, hurry up, the car is waiting in the parking lot!"

"What happened? What happened? What happened to my parents? I'm back now, you should tell me, right?"

"It's like this. I'll tell you slowly. Don't worry. You know about your father's affairs..."

"I know! It's New Year's Day, and so many people came to collect debts. I was here, shouldn't I have tried to solve it? Didn't my father go to Beijing? What's wrong?"

"He went to Beijing and found Wang Guoqiang, but he just refused to pay back the money and refused to comply. He even cursed in the group, saying that your father deserved to pay the money and didn't want a penny, which was just a rogue.

Your father had no choice but to come back, but he didn’t get the money, so he got so upset that he took some medicine…”

"What medicine did he take?"

“Paraquat, a pesticide.”

"Is he crazy? What is he doing? I can find a way to pay back the money, but why is he taking medicine? There is no antidote for paraquat! Where is he now?"

"In the hospital, don't get excited, the doctor is still trying to find a solution."

"What can the doctor do? He'll die if he drinks paraquat! What is he thinking? I'm so! F*ck!"

"Don't worry. You know your dad is very proud. During the Chinese New Year, those who came to collect the debt were all your dad's comrades-in-arms, colleagues, relatives and friends. He was already very depressed, and this time he didn't get the money. He must feel ashamed to face people again, so he couldn't let it go."

"He's so depressed? What happened to his promise to make everyone rich? Why doesn't he keep bragging? He has the ability to borrow money, but why can't he survive? What's the point of taking medicine?"

"Don't say that. Your father did make some money in the beginning, but he was cheated. You can't blame him entirely."

"Who blames him? He's dying! How can you blame him?"

"He is still in the hospital, and the doctors are trying to find a solution. Maybe he can still be saved."

"I really... fuck! Shit!"

"Don't worry. You are the backbone of your family right now. Your mom has cried so much that her voice has become hoarse. When we get here later, you have to hold on. Don't let your mom feel any more pressure. You have to shoulder it."

"Phew...I know."

--------

"Mom, how is my dad?"

"Shanshan, your dad... wuwu, he's almost dying..."

"Don't worry, Mom. Isn't the doctor still trying to find a solution? It should be curable."

"Sister, the children are back, don't worry. Shanshan, go see your dad..."

--------

"dad?"

"Shanshan..."

"I'm back, Dad. Why are you so depressed? Ah? I... wuuu... I'm still here even if the sky falls. I've grown up so much. You... wuuu..."

"Shanshan..."

"I'm here, Dad. You'll be fine. I'll find a way. My roommate is from Beijing. I asked him to help contact the hospital there. Let's go there for treatment. I'm sure you'll be cured!"

"Shanshan..."

"Dad, stop talking, stop talking..."

"Shanshan... Dad... I'm sorry..."

"Dad, don't say that. I don't blame you. Look at me, Dad? Dad! Can you open your eyes? Doctor! Doctor! Someone come quickly!"

--------

"Mom, don't be too sad. I'll find a way to pay the money you owe me. Just take care of your health first and don't think about anything else."

"Shanshan, I'm sorry."

"Mom, why do you say that? It has nothing to do with you. It's all the liar's fault." "I should have advised your dad. I shouldn't have let him get involved in financial management in the first place."

"My dad has such a stubborn temper, how can you persuade him? Don't think too much about it."

"Your dad is not stubborn, he is anxious. Seeing that you have grown up and it is time for you to get married, but your family can't even afford the down payment for buying a house for you, your dad is anxious..."

"I didn't ask you to buy me a house. I have my own hands and feet. I can buy it myself."

"We are your parents, as it should be. Your father also wants to take good care of you and not let you feel inferior to others."

"I don't need it! I didn't expect him to!"

"Shanshan, don't hate him. Your father has a bad temper and is stubborn, like a stubborn donkey. He often beat you when you were a child, but he did it for your own good."

"I don't think so! From childhood to adulthood, how many days has he been awake?"

"Your father is an old employee of the winery. How many people in the winery don't drink? Your father was a soldier. He has many comrades and friends. I am annoyed that he is away from home every other day.

But then again, I married him because he was generous, loyal, and straightforward.

Your father is not a bad person, otherwise how could he have so many friends? "

"He's just a drinking buddy. Who among those who came to collect debts during the New Year's holiday isn't his friend?"

"You can't blame them. Who made your father borrow money from them and couldn't pay it back? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let him do this in the first place."

"Don't blame you, blame Wang Guoqiang! When I find him in the capital, I..."

"Don't go, dear. It's useless. Your father has already sued, and the court has also ordered compulsory execution. It's useless. This is fate. Blame your father for being too greedy, and blame us for being confused and uneducated, so we were deceived..."

"Mom, stop talking. It's all my fault. If I had worked harder, I wouldn't be like this."

"Nonsense, how can I blame you? You are still young, going to school...your father and I are useless. We didn't let you live a good life, and left you with such a big mess...I'm sorry..."

"Don't say that, Mom. I'm an adult, I have all my limbs intact, I can handle anything that comes my way!"

"Yes, you have grown so big... Time flies. It feels like you were still so small yesterday. You were so small when I held you in my hands.

At that time, I was wondering, when can I see you grow up, get married and have children? "

"Isn't that what you have seen? When you recover from your illness, I will go to Guangdong Province to find my uncle and work with him to earn money. The salary there is high, and food and accommodation are provided.

When I get paid, I will send it all back to you. Find a way to pay off your debt first, and then I will earn enough money to buy a big house, marry a wife, and give you a grandson."

"Okay, that's great...good boy...I guess mom won't be able to see it...Ugh!"

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me! I'll take you to the hospital!"

--------

"Family of the patient?"

"Doctor, how is my mother?"

"It's been more than 24 hours since the patient drank paraquat. Didn't he notice it?"

"How could that be? She was talking to me before she came to the hospital!"

"We will make a final effort, but there is a high probability that there is no hope. I hope you can be mentally prepared."

"Doctor, I beg you, please save my mom... My dad died the same way before, I don't have a father anymore... Please save my mom..."

"Director! The patient is in respiratory and cardiac arrest!"

"Hurry! Adrenaline! CPR!"

--------

The shaking of the plane made Lu Feng open his eyes.

Sizzle~! Sizzle~!

After the electric sound, the sweet voice of the stewardess sounded in the cabin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the plane has landed at Beijing Capital International Airport. The temperature outside the cabin is 27 degrees Celsius. The plane is taxiing. For the safety of you and others, please do not stand up or open the luggage rack."

Outside the window, the airport is empty and brightly lit, and you can vaguely see the night view of the city in the distance.

The lights came on, making Lu Feng's reflection on the porthole glass suddenly clearer.

Looking at the night sky outside the window, Lu Feng's thoughts were churning.

Beijing, here I come again.
