Chapter 4
Chapter 4
He Dong didn't take Lu Wen seriously at all, a person who would be scared away by words really couldn't attract his attention.
After a good night's sleep, when He Dong went to the gym to exercise the next morning, the administrator stood beside him and chatted with him again.
In the past, He Dong would just listen and not ask, but thinking about what happened to Lu Wen yesterday, He Dong felt that he might be able to learn something from this administrator. After thinking about it, he asked, "Does Lu Wen come here often?"
When Lu Wen was mentioned, the administrator showed a disdainful expression, and said, "Not necessarily, sometimes I only come once every six months, but every time I come, I must come to ask for money!"
He Dong deliberately asked: "Lu Wen is just a punk, the Chu family just ignore him, why compromise?"
The administrator sighed, and said, "Because of Young Master Nuan, Young Master Nuan felt that he was sorry for his sister, so he was very accommodating to this brother-in-law."
"Huh?" He Dong showed a puzzled expression, "Aren't their siblings on good terms?" This is what Zheng Bo said.
The administrator was silent for a while, and said sadly: "Master Nuan back then... well, if it wasn't for that bastard, Master Nuan wouldn't have ──! Missy was killed by that bastard, and it wasn't Master Nuan's fault at all!" Admin The members were angry, but they didn't say the real content.
He Dong was even more puzzled: "That bastard? Lu Wen?"
"No, it's not Lu Wen..." The administrator shook his head and opened his mouth to say something, but then he didn't say anything. He just said, "Oh, it's all in the past. Anyway, it would be nice if you cared more about Young Master Nuan .You did a good job driving Lu Wen away this time, and you are very relieved! Next time Lu Wen dares to come like this, you will continue to do so!"
The next time Lu Wen comes again, whether He Dong will drive him away or not is still a matter of opinion. He Dong has always felt that what he did this time was a bit out of line.
He only felt that the events back then seemed very complicated—maybe all the affairs of big families were so complicated?
Curiosity killed the cat, He Dong shut up in a timely manner, and the administrator also changed the topic, and began to think about other trivial things.
After exercising and taking a shower, He Dong went downstairs to finish his breakfast, and was about to go back to his room to rest for a while, but Zheng Bo stopped him.
"Xiaodong, come, come, let me discuss something with you." Zheng Bo said with a smile, He Dong went over unprepared, Zheng Bo pulled him to sit down, and said kindly: "Xiaodong, I heard that your sister is now Are you still in the country?"
He Dong somehow thought of Chu Nuan's abrupt mention of his sister that day, although some guesses flashed in his mind, he replied, "Yes."
Zheng Bo smiled and said, "That's right. I heard that your sister is not in good health, and your family is in the countryside, so I thought, why not take your sister to a nursing home in the city."
He Dong was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help hesitating: "This..."
Zheng Bo added: "You don't need to be careful about the expenses, we will pay for you. There is a very good nursing home in the east of the city. I think it is better to come here than to leave your sister alone in the country. The nursing home is not far from here. It's not very far, and you can go to see my sister when the young master has nothing to say on the weekend."
He Dong stared fixedly at Zheng Bo, his mind churning with thoughts.
Zheng Bo's suggestion is undoubtedly very tempting. After He Dong retired from the army, he worked hard to make money for nothing more than to treat his sister's illness.
He Xiaomei's illness was brought from her mother's womb. When He's mother was pregnant with her little sister, He Dong was still studying in junior high school. In order to make up for He Dong's tuition, He's mother worked from dawn to dusk during her pregnancy, but the family was poor and had poor nutrition. I can't keep up. The little girl was very weak when she was born. When she grows up, she will feel dizzy after standing for a long time, and she can't do any heavy work.
The family took the younger sister to a big hospital in the city for an examination, but there was no problem.The doctor of traditional Chinese medicine said that it was born with physical weakness, and prescribed a prescription for He Xiaomei. After taking it, He Xiaomei's body has indeed improved a lot, and she will no longer faint at every turn.Seeing hope, He Dong asked the little girl to keep eating.However, many of the medicinal materials used in this recipe are very precious. It is no problem to take it once or twice, but it is a big burden to take it for a year or two.
He Dong has always hoped to bring his younger sister to take care of him, but he is powerless. The house in the city is too expensive, and He Dong can't afford to rent it. When he works as a security guard and attends classes in the training center, he lives in the unit's dormitory. There is no way to arrange for his younger sister , can only leave the younger sister in the country.He Dong has always been very worried about the younger sister, calling back almost every day, and only after listening to the younger sister answering the phone energetically can he feel relieved.If the younger sister can be sent to a high-end nursing home, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the younger sister's condition, but...
If he really did this, the little girl would become He Dong's hostage in the Chu family!
When He Dong was a soldier in the army, due to his special position, he often came into contact with those high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and he had already understood the style of these people.He Dong was not a loyal dog raised by the Chu family since he was a child, and the Chu family had to guard against him if they wanted to use him.
Rationally speaking, there is nothing wrong with Zheng Bo's proposal. He Dong asked himself that he had no plans for the Chu family. Although sending the younger sister to a nursing home is equivalent to being controlled by the Chu family, as long as he does not act rashly, the Chu family will not Hurt the little sister, but let the little sister get the best care, which is undoubtedly a mutually beneficial thing.
But from an emotional point of view, He Dong was extremely unwilling to do this, he always had the feeling that he wanted to push the little girl into a pit of fire.He has already felt sorry for his little sister, and he doesn't want to put her in any danger.
But He Dong couldn't refuse. On the surface, Zheng Bo was discussing with him, but in fact He Dong had no room or qualification to refuse at all.
As if he had seen through He Dong's thoughts, Zheng Bo smiled and said without concealment: "Xiaodong, to be honest, our Chu family now has Young Master Nuan alone supporting the overall situation. Before a new heir appears, Young Master Nuan You can't make any mistakes around you. You love your sister very much, we know it, and others will know it too. It's hard to guarantee that one day someone won't use your sister to coerce you into doing things that are not good for Young Master Nuan. The young master will have an accident, and your sister will also be in danger. Instead of doing this, it’s better to choose a safe environment in advance, isn’t it? Your sister can live a good life in the nursing home, and you can visit her whenever you have time. For you, it may take you a lifetime to accomplish something, but for our Chu family, it is just a sentence. Of course, we don't give this sentence for free, but we don't ask for much."
Zheng Bo looked at the silent He Dong with a smile, he was not in a hurry, he believed that He Dong would make the right decision.
He Dong thought a lot in his mind, and it is undeniable that he was moved—or, in the absence of a choice, he no longer rejected this semi-forced request.
After a long time, He Dong asked, "What do you... want?"
Zheng Bo laughed, stared into He Dong's eyes, and said word by word: "Your loyalty and dedication!"
Entering Chu Nuan's room again, looking at Chu Nuan's sleeping face, He Dong's mood was quite different from before.
As expected, a poisonous snake is still a poisonous snake, no matter how harmless it looks, there will always be fangs and snake venom.
Although He Dong could understand Chu Nuan and Zheng Bo's actions, rational understanding did not mean emotional acceptance.He Dong hated the feeling of being coerced like this.But now that He Xiaomei has entered the control of the Chu family, no matter how dissatisfied He Dong is, he can't do anything to Chu Nuan.
"Master, it's time to get up."
He Dong gently pushed Chu Nuan and said in a low voice.
Chu Nuan still didn't move after a while, and asked vaguely "What time is it?" After receiving He Dong's answer, he turned over and lay flat, covering his eyes with the back of his hand, habitually lying on the bed.
He Dong opened the curtains, prepared clothes for Chu Nuan, and stood aside waiting for Chu Nuan to really wake up.
After about seven or eight minutes, Chu Nuan finally woke up completely, her long eyelashes fluttered for a while, then slowly opened her eyes, looked sideways at He Dong who was standing in front of the bed for a while, and then used the big The knuckles at the base of his fingers rubbed between his eyebrows, his eyes blinked as if they were sore, and then he sat up slowly.
Chu Nuan covered her mouth and yawned, slowly moved her body and sat on the side of the bed, waiting for He Dong's help.
He Dong stepped forward to pick up Chu Nuan and put him on the wheelchair, then pushed him to the bathroom.
This is the beginning of a silent and rigid day.
Although He Dong's behavior is usually not enthusiastic, but today he seems to be a little colder than usual. The most obvious manifestation is that when Chu Nuan called him, he didn't have so many unnecessary answers.For example-
"He Dong, help me get the xx book."
"Yes."
He Dong turned around to take the book and handed it to Chu Nuan. Chu Nuan took the book, and He Dong retreated behind Chu Nuan again.
I didn't feel it once or twice, but after coming a few more times, Chu Nuan couldn't help but glance sideways when He Dong retreated.
The two looked at each other, He Dong blinked, and asked if there was anything else to do, but nothing could be seen on Chu Nuan's gloomy face.He Dong nodded slightly and said, "Please tell me if necessary", then turned his gaze away without squinting.
Chu Nuan stared at He Dong for a long time, and finally said nothing, bowed her head and continued to process the documents.
He Dong was a little angry and wanted to be cold-faced all the time, but after standing for a whole morning, he found that this behavior was very naive—very naive!He quickly returned to normal, but he was still not willing to talk to Chu Nuan, even though they had nothing to communicate with before.
The Chu family handled things very quickly, and within two days, He Xiaomei was arranged to go to the city.
This day is the death day of Chu’s father and Chu’s mother. Chu Nuan will go to the Dream Garden Cemetery where they are buried to worship them. Every year on this day, Chu Nuan will stay alone in the Dream Garden for a whole afternoon, quietly, not thinking about it. Keep anyone company.
It is precisely because of this that He Dong can ask for leave to accompany his sister in a nursing home after sending Chu Nuan to Mengyuan. It just so happens that Mengyuan is also in the east of the city, not too far away from the nursing home.
After sending Chu Nuan to Mengyuan, Chu Nuan went to the nursing home. When she arrived, Miss He had been in the nursing home for two days.
The wards of the nursing home are single rooms, which are arranged like a small bedroom in an ordinary family. All kinds of furniture and home appliances are readily available. Patients can add anything they need at any time, making the environment warm and comfortable.
Seeing her brother coming, He Xiaomei happily grabbed He Dong and said, "Brother, I miss you so much! You haven't come back to see me for a long time."
He Dong stroked his younger sister's hair pityingly, and said, "It's my brother's fault."
He Xiaomei said: "It doesn't matter, I know I didn't come to see me because I was working hard to make money. Brother, did you make a lot of money this time? I heard that the fees here are very high. Brother, you didn't do anything Something dangerous, right?"
"Hehe, no." He Dong said, "I work as a bodyguard in a rich family, and they pay a lot of money." He Dong didn't want to tell his sister about complicated things, and his sister didn't have any problems because of her poor health. He Dong has a relatively simple mind and has never seen anything dark. He Dong doesn't want to destroy this beauty.
"Oh, brother, you have to be careful!"
He Xiaomei took He Dong and happily talked about what she saw and heard in the nursing home. She had never traveled far since she was a child, and everything was new in the city. She talked a lot, and He Dong listened with a smile.When He Xiaomei talked about the nurses in the nursing home, she suddenly remembered something and shouted: "Ah, brother, here is something for you! This is what the nurse gave me. I ate a piece and it was delicious. Brother, you said you would come today, I will Save it especially for you!"
He Xiaomei took out a plate-shaped object from her pocket and put it in He Dong's hand. He Dong took a look, it turned out to be chocolate, but the packaging of this chocolate was written in foreign languages, and it seemed that it was not an ordinary supermarket item.
He Xiaomei said: "The nurse said it was brought back by his brother from abroad, it's really delicious!"
He Dong doesn't like sweets very much, but he ate a lot of chocolates when he was performing missions—this is a good thing to replenish his energy.Seeing his sister's anticipation, He Dong broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and said with a smile, "It's delicious."
Before He Dong returned the chocolate to He Xiaomei, the little girl stuffed the chocolate into He Dong's pocket and said, "Brother, keep it for eating."
He Dong said: "Brother doesn't like sweets very much, you can just eat them, little sister."
But the little girl said: "I ate much better before, but the nurse said I can't eat too much, I will get hungry if I keep it!"
He Dong thought about it and accepted it. He remembered that the old Chinese doctor seemed to have said that the little girl should eat nutritious food, but don't eat too much sweet and high-calorie food.
The two brothers and sisters reunited after a long absence, and there was always something to talk about, but He Dong still remembered that he was on leave. It was almost four o'clock, and He Dong had to go back to pick up Chu Nuan.
Saying goodbye to his little sister, He Dong took a taxi and rushed back to Mengyuan.
Arriving at the gate of Mengyuan, as soon as the car approached, He Dong saw several bodyguards of the Chu family confronting another person, while Chu Nuan was being held in his arms by a strange man, with a gun pointed at Chu Nuan's head , making people dare not act rashly.
He Dong was shocked, the car he was sitting in had been found, so He Dong simply got out of the car and went to the bodyguards of the Chu family.
Although I still don't know what's going on, but it looks... It's clearly kidnapping!
He Dong frowned, but he had nothing to do with the hostage in the hands of the other party.
A man wearing sunglasses and a mask whispered a few words to the man with the gun. The man with the gun seemed to think about it, and then nodded slightly.The man in sunglasses pointed at He Dong and said, "You, come here!"
He Dong secretly rejoiced, thinking that this is an opportunity, and it would be good to be able to walk to Chu Nuan's side anyway, but the voice of the man in the sunglasses seemed familiar, but it was very vague through the mask, and He Dong couldn't remember who it was.
There was no expression on He Dong's face, he pretended not to know, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you going to do?"
The man in sunglasses said, "Come here if you're told! What a lot of nonsense! Hey, raise your hands and stand in the middle!"
He Dong pretended to hesitate for a while, and walked over slowly. A person walked out from the other party. He Dong took a look and knew that this person had also undergone professional military training, and his level was very high. to the upper hand.
After thinking about it, He Dong changed his goal of taking hostages, and instead went with them in order to take care of Chu Nuan.
The other party took a palm-sized instrument and swept it over He Dong's body, disabling all of He Dong's communication devices, including the watch.Seeing the other party take out this thing, He Dong realized that the enemy's background this time might not be as simple as an ordinary underworld.
He Dong was a little worried.
The other party tied up Chu Nuan and He Dong and threw them into the car. Because Chu Nuan was in their hands, the bodyguards of the Chu family did not dare to act rashly, and just watched the other party take them away.
There was not much space in the car, and He Dong and Chu Nuan were forced to sit next to each other. They were both blindfolded, and because they were so close together, He Dong could feel that Chu Nuan was fine for the time being.
To be sure, He Dong still asked, "Master, are you alright?"
"Well, it's okay." Chu Nuan replied lightly.
"Anything uncomfortable?"
"No."
If he hadn't been in the same environment, He Dong would have felt that nothing had happened just listening to this calm answer.
He Dong didn't speak any more, and began to feel the car's driving route silently.
The car entered the outskirts of the city after leaving Mengyuan. They drove several times in the outskirts of the city before they really headed towards their destination. After driving for about an hour, the car finally stopped after the last bumpy ride.
He Dong felt that they had entered a village around T City. He was not very familiar with the environment here. He only knew the approximate location, but not the exact location.
He Dong was pushed away for a while, and suddenly a big foot kicked him from behind and knocked him to the ground. There was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and He Dong groaned in pain when he heard a voice belonging to Chu Nuan. , He Dongxin mentioned it, and asked, "Master?!"
It took Chu Nuan a while to reply: "It's okay..."
Chu Nuan's voice had lost the flatness just now, obviously from the pain of the fall.
He Dong was also helpless about this, and just about to say something, he stomped on the ground with one foot, and Lu Wen said in a vicious voice: "You are very leisurely! You still care about you so much at this time Young master! Do you want to be a mandarin duck of life and death with him?!"
He Dong couldn't hear such obscene words, and angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
The black cloth in front of him was suddenly torn away, and He Dong's eyes were slightly squinted by the sudden brilliance. The face of the man in sunglasses suddenly magnified in his eyes. The man in sunglasses grabbed He Dong's collar and grinned: "This crippled mother He's a fucking slut! How clean do you think he is? How many men have fucked him, tsk tsk, I can't count it!"
He Dong was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly remembered who this person was: Lu Wen!
Lu Wen's words were more straightforward than what he said last time. He Dong was a little dazed when he heard that, and subconsciously looked back at Chu Nuan. Did Lu Wen's words affect him?
Lu Wen insulted Chu Nuan and He Dong just felt wronged, but He Dong couldn't stand Lu Wen's face.
With a spit, He Dong spat on Lu Wen's face and cursed, "Bastard!"
Lu Wen was furious, old and new grudges surged up, he threw He Dong on the ground, greeted him with fists and kicks, and cursed: "What are you! How dare you spit on me! Kill you! I have long seen you not pleasing to the eye Let's see if I don't beat you to death this time!"
He Dong's hands and feet were tied and he couldn't avoid the counterattack, so he could only let his thick back bear the blow.
After hitting Lu Wen for a while, he was stopped by a person next to him. The person spoke in a poor Chinese and said, "Enough, stay, he, take care of me."
Lu Wen was obviously a little afraid of this man, he stopped as soon as the man opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't help kicking more.
After cutting the rope that bound their hands to He Dong, several people left, and they were not afraid that He Dong would run away with Chu Nuan.
The sound of the big iron gate being closed echoed in the empty house, and He Dong was hit hard by Lu Wen, so he sat up slowly.
"Master, are you okay?"
He Dong pulled off the black cloth covering Chu Nuan's eyes, Chu Nuan blinked, squinted at He Dong slightly, and then said unhurriedly: "It's okay."
He Dong breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Chu Nuan's thin body would not be able to withstand the fall, and would shatter if he fell.
Untying the rope for Chu Nuan, helping Chu Nuan to sit on the ground, He Dong looked at the surrounding environment.
This is a small warehouse, about two to three hundred square meters, where there are a lot of odds and ends.It seemed that those people were not afraid of what He Dong might do. After all, He Dong's main task was to protect Chu Nuan, and since Chu Nuan had a broken leg, it would be difficult for He Dong to take Chu Nuan away even if he had any extravagance.
He Dong saw a chair not far away, so he said to Chu Nuan, "I'll move a chair for you to sit on."
Chu Nuan was noncommittal, so He Dong walked over and took the chair, wiped it clean, picked up Chu Nuan and put it on the chair.
After Chu Nuan was settled, He Dong began to investigate the situation of the warehouse, trying to find a chance to escape.
Turning around, He Dong only saw a few small vents on the walls on both sides of the warehouse, and they were all at high places. It was impossible for people to get through. There is a way to let Chu Nuan pass.
He Dong observed the outside through the door, and he quickly discovered that several of the opponents had high military literacy, and their impeccable patrol and defense were by no means comparable to Lu Wen's class of gangsters.
Conclusion: there is no escape.
He Dong was a little frustrated, this was the first time he encountered a "situation" with Chu Nuan, and he, who has made great achievements in the army, did not expect that this time he would be unlucky and unable to do anything!
"damn it!"
He Dong was secretly annoyed, all the communication devices on his body were searched at Mengyuan, and now even if he knew the approximate location, he couldn't contact other people.
He Dong returned to Chu Nuan and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I can't get out."
Chu Nuan looked up at him, and said expressionlessly, "It's okay."
He Dong sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking about how to get out of trouble.
Following He Dong's stillness, the warehouse fell into silence again. Chu Nuan seemed to be sitting in the office as usual, with his head slightly lowered, his eyes didn't know where to fall, and his fingers tapped intermittently on his thighs, as if he was thinking about something. But the calmness on his face made it difficult to see his emotions.
Every three days, until the end.
