Granting You A Dreamlike Life - Chapter 60

“Do you know why I never had a birthday?” Luo Fusheng took his hand out of her palm, and the expression in her eyes gradually became cold.

Lin Ruomeng stared at her empty palm and suddenly had a bad feeling. She always thought that what lay between them were just the chaos. She tried to make a smile, her voice trembling. “why?”

“Because my birthday is also my father’s day of sacrifice.”

Uncle Pang came out of the wooden house and saw them sitting side by side on the beach. “Shengzi! Acheng shook the phone and came to find you.”

Luo Fusheng went to Ningyuan by himself, and did not return in the evening. Luo Cheng was anxious and sent someone to ask. Knowing that Luo Fusheng had already left, he was still sitting in Lin’s car. After getting the news, he came to Uncle Pang’s side. But the call will be here, presumably something important.

Luo Fusheng held up and patted the sand in his hands. “You wait for me here. If you don’t want to wait, you can leave first.”

Lin Ruomeng looked at him without knowing why.

Luo Fusheng walked to Uncle Pang and said a few words to him, and pointed to Lin Ruomeng. Uncle Pang showed an embarrassed expression on his face. He patted Uncle Pang on the shoulder and walked to the wooden house to answer the phone.

Uncle Pang walked to Lin Ruomeng’s side. “Miss Lin, do you know how the father of the son died…”

“Brother Sheng, come back soon! Hou Li is making trouble at the pier.” Luo Cheng on the other end of the phone was anxious.

“It’s not the first time he is making trouble, what’s the hurry?”

“It’s not the same. This time they forced all the Hong gang leaders to go. They said that the dock was smashed by the Qing gang, and they said you were a traitor to the Qing gang. The Hong gang was very angry and was looking for you. Come back!”

When Luo Fusheng hung up the phone and walked out of the wooden house, Lin Ruomeng was no longer on the beach. Uncle Pang looked back and saw him, and shook his head helplessly. “she left.”

Luo Fusheng was not surprised. “Uncle Pang, please take me back to the city.”

The Hong Gang gathered at the pier, Hong Zhengbao looked at the smashed place with anger.

“Unreasonably, the Green Gang is becoming less and less of our Hong Gang’s eyes! Not only did they engage in assassination, they actually broke ground on Tai Sui’s head, and clearly hit Hong Bang Pier! They also injured so many brothers.”

Hou Li said gloomily on the side: “As far as I can see, the leader of the gang, the reason why the gang is so rampant is directly related to the inaction of someone in the gang. Not only the inaction, but also the turning of the elbow.”

Hong Zhengbao glared in anger: “Who?”

“Although I don’t want to say that, for fear of hurting the loyalty of my brothers, if the young master can put all his thoughts in the gang, I am afraid that such a thing will not happen, right? Ning Yuan signed a contract with the Japanese to cut out half of the smoking hall for the Green Gang. Not only does this make you face the helper, it’s already surrendering our jobs!”

Standing behind Hong Zhengbao, Luo Cheng, with a bandage on his arm, was filled with indignation. “Hou Li! Don’t spit people!”

“Fang Master Hong, should you set the rules for your subordinates? In the Gang, any cat or dog can call me the third master by his name, is it disrespectful?”

Hong Zhengbao glared at Luo Cheng and reprimanded him: “Something unruly!”

Luo Cheng said angrily. Hou Li received Hong Zhengbao’s tacit approval and raised his hand to teach Luo Cheng a lesson.

A hand appeared to strangle Hou Li’s wrist, Hou Li grinned, and he let go. “My people won’t take care of Uncle Hou’s lesson.”

“Where have you been?” Hong Zhengbao opened one eye to his black hand and closed the subject before turning off the topic. Hou Liqi’s teeth itchy but can’t say anything.

“In response to my foster father, I went to visit Uncle Pang in Chongming Village.”

Hong Zhengbao saw Lao Pang standing in the distance across the crowd. Lao Pang turned and left without saying hello to him. Back then, he and Lao Pang and Luo Jing were good brothers from birth to death. Luo Jing’s death, to this day, Lao Pang still blames him.

Hong Zhengbao sighed inwardly and withdrew his gaze. “Luo Fusheng, Uncle Hou said that you signed a secret contract with the Japanese and Qian Kuohai, ceding the interests of the Hong Gang to the Qing Gang. Is there such a thing?”

“Yes.” Hou Li didn’t expect Luo Fusheng to admit it so refreshingly, he always felt ghostly.

Luo Cheng was anxious. “Big brother, don’t confess everything on yourself!”

“My move is exactly what Hou and other uncles wanted.”

“Don’t spit people. When did I ask you to do this?”

“Uncle Hou and his uncles have been worried about the closure of the smoking hall. They have been to Hongzhai many times to ask the righteous husband to be the master. The righteous husband has been in poor health recently and has been repeatedly disturbed. This is the next move. Yes, I ceded half of the smoking hall to the Youth Gang, but it was only the right to operate, and the profit was divided into 50 to 50. The smoking hall was in the hands of our Hong Gang, and it was stared at by the students and newspaper people and could not be opened. Only when the Youth Gang comes forward can you divert your attention. The profit is a bit thin, and it’s not open anyway. What’s more, it can stop the bloody struggle between the two gangs, killing two birds with one stone.”

“Nonsense! If Qian Kuohai really intends to form an alliance with us. How could we hurt so many brothers Hong Bang today!” Hou Li pointed to the dozen or so brothers lying on the dock and asked Luo Fusheng.

Luo Fusheng knew that these people must not have been hurt by money, nor would they be Japanese. They just signed the contract, and it’s not a smart person to turn back. It is only possible that Hou Li himself directed and acted in a play, wanting to plant money on Qian Kuohai to provoke a struggle between the two sides, and more importantly, he can label Luo Fusheng.

He lifted up a brother on the ground who looked less injured. “Did you see the person who beat you clearly?”

“It’s a member of the Green Gang.”

“Why are you so sure that it is theirs?”

The brother glanced at Hou Li timidly and replied hesitantly. “Because I saw that they had a tattoo of the Cyan Gang on their arms.”

“Oh. They didn’t run away. The person who attacked me in the restaurant before had tattoos on his arms. It was a big blue dragon.”

“Yes, yes, it’s Qinglong! I can see clearly, the blue ball is really scary.”

“Cough cough.” Hou Li coughed heavily to remind him not to speak any more.

Luo Fusheng smiled, clapped his hands and stood up. “Really? I just seemed to be wrong. The Qinggang’s tattoo is a brave, white-headed golden horns, and it is a treasure. So the group of unknown people with Qinglong tattoos who beat you has nothing to do with the Qinggang.”

Hong Zhengbao guessed what was going on in his heart, and gave Hou Li a reproachful look, but he didn’t break through him and gave him a step down. “In that case, it’s a misunderstanding. That’s all. Luo Fusheng, it’s really unreasonable for you to make such a big idea without authorization. It’s not an example, you can do it yourself!”

“Yes! Foster father.”

Hou Li sneered while grinding his teeth, Hong Zhengbao was already dissatisfied with Luo Fusheng. As long as he continues to be so arrogant, he will definitely be driven out of the Hong Gang next time.

With gongs and drums, 13 graduates gathered together. The graduation ceremony of the military academy.

Under the witness of all the students, the instructor personally awarded Xu Xingcheng a graduation certificate and awarded him an officer medal.

Xu Xingcheng saluted the instructor, turned around, and saluted the students again.

After graduation, Xu Xingcheng was temporarily sent to the 19th Route Army stationed in Shanghai. He returned to Shanghai at the end of December, and according to the date of the marriage contract, he and his sister would have their wedding at the same time in half a month.

Xu Rui’an and Xu Xingyuan are discussing the details of the marriage in the living room, and Xu Xingyuan has an expression of happiness that cannot be concealed. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he turned his head and saw Xu Xingcheng had entered the house with the package.

“I am back.”

“Brother!” Xu Xingyuan was the first to pounce, hugged Xu Xingcheng tightly, and then looked at each other. My brother became darker and stronger, and the whole person looked different.

“Why don’t you tell us when you come back? Ask Mao Bo to drive to pick you up.” Xu Ruian had already received a report from the subordinates in the military academy and knew that Xu Xingcheng had performed unexpectedly well. He looked at this son with admiration.

“I’m such an adult. Still afraid of losing it?” Xu Xingcheng hadn’t seen his sister for a long time and was in a good mood. “Yuanyuan has become beautiful again, isn’t it moistened by love?”

“Where is it?” Xu Xingyuan denied, but blushed and betrayed her. Lin Qikai is really good to her, and there is nothing to say, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the top ten boyfriend.

Xu Ruian came over and patted Xu Xingcheng on the shoulder. “I have received the results of your training. I am surprised that you did not embarrass me. You stayed in the 19th Route Army for a while and strived for military merit. I will transfer you to your Zhang Shibo army. , Follow the chief, you will have a bright future in the future.”

Xu Xingcheng still feels a little disgusted with Xu Ruian’s appearance of a villain who always talks about fame and wealth so directly. “No matter where I am, I will be a soldier.”

Xu Ruian rarely refuted him. After this time of getting along, he has already understood that this son is always the same as himself. He just disguised his thoughts even more, and sometimes deceived himself. That’s good, maybe in the future he can become a more ruthless person than himself, and selling someone can help him count the money. “In this way, you come back and rest for two days. Two days later, it will be your mother’s death. Let’s go to the tomb together.”

“I don’t want to go.” Xu Xingcheng showed repulsion on his face. The image of his father kicking his mother fiercely appeared in his mind again. At that time, Xu Xingyuan might have no impression when she was young, but he remembered clearly.

The night before his mother died, she dragged her scarred body to tuck him in the quilt, and kissed his forehead to say good night. The next day, how can a big living person say that he is gone?

Xu Xingcheng was unwilling to visit the grave, so that he could escape the fact that his mother had died. Stubbornly believe that his mother is still alive in this world where he can’t see.

“You have to go if you don’t want to go! I’ll go straight from the office after I’ve dealt with the official duties, and then let Mao Bo take you to the cemetery.

In the cemetery, the tombstones are a forest, solemn and gloomy. Xu Rui’an stood alone in it for a long time without moving.

Xu Rui’an gently wiped the dust on the tombstone in front of him, which was engraved-the tomb of his beloved wife Liu Shuzhen. Looking at the photos of Liu Shuzhen when she was young, Xu Rui’an had mixed feelings and seemed to think of a lot of the past.

“Dad, waited a long time.”

Xu Xingyuan pulled the unhappy Xu Xingcheng to Xu Rui’an, and presented the bought flowers in front of her mother’s curtain.

Xu Rui’an was a little unhappy. “How could such an important matter be delayed so long before?

Xu Xingyuan answered on behalf of her brother: “I’m sorry.”

Seeing Xu Xingcheng’s sad face, Xu Ruian knew that he was in love with the scene.

“Your mother’s death, why is it not painful for me? But, don’t be too sad. What happened in the past cannot be changed. Your mother’s death is an accident, and it is not the responsibility of any one of us. People, always have to Look forward. I believe that your mother doesn’t want us to be immersed in this shadow forever, right?”

Xu Xingcheng snorted, and Xu Xingyuan took him and nodded.

Xu Rui’an took Xu Xingyuan and Xu Xingcheng to worship Liu Shuzhen. After the worship, Xu Ruian called Xu Xingcheng aside.

Xu Rui’an looked at him badly: “Still down? How can a manly man be so emotional? Have you forgotten everything you learned in the military academy?”

Xu Xingcheng shook his head.

“I ask you, look at everything around here, what do you see?”

“The breath of death and decay is the same as the whole Shanghai Beach, and the same as my life.” He thought of Tianying and his mother. Can’t help sighing. “Maybe, all important women in life will choose to leave me in the end. This is my destiny.”

“Women are never all in our men’s lives. In the future, you are someone who has to do big things. How can you be troubled by the little grudges of some mothers-in-laws. Tell you, what I see here is a spurt of life. your future.”

Xu Xingcheng puzzled: “My future?”

“The so-called success of a man must be overwhelmed by many people’s corpses. I believe that in the military school, you should have experienced this feeling initially, but that is only the beginning. The cruel survival of the fittest is the world. The only truth of this. No matter what means you use, you will only have the chance to win the world if you live to the end.”

Xu Rui’an left, leaving Xu Xingcheng alone looking at the forest-like tombstone, and he seemed to be moved.

That night, Xu Ruian carried the key alone and walked into the underground prison in the main building of Xu’s house.

He walked slowly into the depths and fell into the darkness.

There is only one cell in the underground prison. He opened the door, walked in, and locked the door.

I saw an elderly woman crawling on the straw in white robes and pants. Years of blindness made her skin almost transparent and pale, but there were still patches of bruise and purple on her face, which had been tortured beyond recognition.

Seeing Xu Rui’an, the woman spit on her face. Xu Rui’an also slapped her face with color, leaving a five-fingerprint on her face. The two tortured each other like this for more than ten years, endlessly.

Many times, Liu Shuzhen wanted to die. But the demon even threatened her with children. Her first suicide caused Xu Rui’an to send her elder son to the battlefield.

“You have a son and a daughter left. Do you want to try again?”

Therefore, Liu Shuzhen lives in this world without being a human being, and her only hope is that she will have a chance to see her children again before she dies.

Xu Ruian squeezed her face: “If Xia Anni lives to this day, she should be like you.”

Yes, when Xu Ruian came back by marrying her, wasn’t it just because he had a similar face to Xia Anni? Liu Shuzhen, born in a small family of Biyu, was fortunate that she looked similar to the movie queen of Shanghai in the 28th year. For all the rest of her life, she was paying for this face.

Xu Rui’an wiped the saliva off his face with a handkerchief, then threw it into the fire. Under the flames, there was a grim smile.
