Chapter 128 Owe a Huge Debt
Due to the severe traffic jam ahead, it was impossible to drive through.
Jiang Yiqing looked around and found a parking lot nearby and parked his car. If he had parked his car on the side of the road, the traffic jam would have continued and the traffic behind him would have only gotten worse. While
he was parking, the traffic police came over and used a loud speaker to direct traffic.
Jiang Yiqing took a look and went to the front with Dafu, who was curious and looking around.
There were quite a few people gathered in front, all looking to see what was going on.
There was a person sitting on a building more than 30 stories high. Because it was too far away, it was difficult to see clearly. All he could see was that he was sitting on the edge of the building with his legs hanging high in the air, as if he was not afraid of the abyss-like height ahead at all.
Soon, the police evacuated the people downstairs and set up a cordon. Firefighters quickly brought life-saving air cushions and laid them downstairs.
However, at such a high distance, even with life-saving air cushions, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no problems, so it was best to persuade the other party to give up the idea of jumping off the building.
"It's so high." Dafu tried to raise his head, looked at the small black shadow, and murmured: "Isn't he afraid?"
Someone next to him was amused by Dafu's naive words. He looked at Dafu strangely and shook his head: "He wants to jump off the building to commit suicide, how can he be afraid?"
Someone else asked: "Why would he jump off the building for no reason? I heard that he is still a young man, in his twenties or thirties. How young are you? What happened to him that makes him so depressed?"
"Well, there are so many difficult things in this world. Don't talk without any pain in your waist."
"What do you mean I can talk without any pain in my waist? Am I wrong? No matter what time it is, life is precious. If you really jump down, it will be too late to regret it!"
"Oh, oh, stop arguing. Brother, it seems that you know the situation? Tell me."
"What is there to say? This man lost money in business. I heard he owes others millions. He can't pay it back, so he wants to die?"
"Young people nowadays are really hard to bear. If he dies, what about his family? His family still has to pay him back for the money he owes."
"Well, it's easy to die, but it's not easy to live."
"Tsk, why should firefighters save such a person? If he wants to jump, let him jump. It's too dangerous for firefighters to save him in such a high building. I feel scared just watching it."
"What you said, if you jump from the building one day, don't let anyone save you."
"Eh? How do you talk like that?"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, passers-by came to persuade them. The two who were about to quarrel snorted and ignored each other.
Jiang Yiqing looked up and looked at the figure above his head. A firefighter also went to the roof. He was some distance away from the other side, holding a loudspeaker and persuading the other side.
"Comrade, if you encounter anything, we should calm down and solve it slowly. Don't be impulsive. Think about your family..."
The figure sitting next to the tall building did not move, and it was obvious that he was not convinced.
The firefighter sighed. When they were rescuing, they were most afraid of people who did not say a word. If they were emotional, it meant that the other party still cared about something. People who
did not say a word probably had the will to die.
After a while, the man next to the tall building suddenly stood up and took another step forward.
"Comrade, don't be impulsive! Can I talk to you?"
The other party still said nothing, but at least he didn't move forward.
The firefighter breathed a sigh of relief and winked at his colleague next to him. The teammate who cooperated tacitly immediately understood what he meant.
Seeing that the man's attention was diverted by his colleague, he began to approach the other party quietly.
The crowd downstairs could see two dark shadows approaching little by little, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and became nervous.
Dafu also widened his eyes and asked Jiang Yiqing nervously: "Qingqing, everything should be okay."
Jiang Yiqing frowned slightly and didn't say anything. He couldn't see the two people above clearly, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
As the firefighter was about to approach the man, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted "We're going to be saved!" This instantly startled the man. He noticed the firefighter behind him and immediately widened his eyes, wanting to jump down directly.
The firefighter acted decisively and immediately jumped over and pushed the man from the edge of the tall building to the inside. Seeing that the man was in a safe place, he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he felt his feet slipped. At the same time, the crowd downstairs shouted "Be careful!" "Oh my God!"
"Xiao Zhao!" Seeing that the other person was about to fall, the firefighter's eyes widened instantly and wanted to jump over to save him.
But the distance between the two was too far, at least for the distance of saving people. Even if he jumped over immediately from here, it would not be enough to catch the other person.
The firefighter colleague was in despair. He saw that the man was about to fall. At the last second, the man seemed to be pushed from behind and strangely fell forward.
When his colleague saw that he was in a safe place, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I was so scared. I'm glad you're okay. I just thought you were really going to fall."
Xiao Zhao didn't say anything. He wiped the sweat from his forehead. He didn't dare to say that at that moment, his whole body had already fallen backwards. He almost fell off the tall building.
But suddenly, there was a force in his lower back, which made him return to the building.
"Why don't you say anything? Are you scared?" The colleague wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "You are really lucky."
After he finished speaking, he saw the man who jumped from the building walking towards the high-rise building uncomfortably, and immediately turned cold. Together with other colleagues, he controlled the man and took him down the high-rise building.
Xiao Zhao sat there with weak legs. His colleagues thought he was scared, so they came over and handed him a bottle of water and sat next to him: "Are you okay? Do you need to apply for psychological counseling?"
Xiao Zhao was now eager to confirm one thing. He shook his head: "No, you guys go down first, I'll stay alone for a while."
The colleague confirmed that he was okay, patted him again, and then went downstairs.
After the colleague left, Xiao Zhao put down the water in his hand and quickly took out the amulet his girlfriend gave him from his pocket.
He opened the small cloth bag that contained the amulet, and saw that the amulet paper inside had turned into a ball of ash.
Xiao Zhao exhaled sharply, and his legs went limp. The feeling of surviving a disaster took him a long time to recover.
This amulet was given to him by his girlfriend, who said that she had prayed for it in a particularly spiritual temple. He only remembered that his girlfriend muttered something about "Qingshuo Zhenren" and "Master Jiang" every day. In short, she believed in these things during this period.
Xiao Zhao didn't believe it at first. It was his girlfriend who forced it on him, but he is now very sober. Fortunately, fortunately, he listened to his girlfriend and took the amulet with him.
Otherwise... Thinking of the possible consequences, Xiao Zhao felt a wave of fear.
He didn't dare to tell his girlfriend about this. He was still at work, and his girlfriend would be worried if he couldn't see anyone.
But he was sure that the amulet saved his life. If... If the brothers could have such an opportunity, then many people wouldn't have to sacrifice.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhao's nose was sore. He wiped his tears and hurriedly followed the other firefighters and walked downstairs. He decided to report the matter as soon as he got back.
Most of the people under the high-rise building were kind-hearted. Seeing that no one was in trouble, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good that the firefighter almost fell down just now. I'm glad he's okay."
"Yeah, I was also shocked, but that firefighter is really good. He jumped forward at the critical moment..."
Jiang Yiqing originally saw Xiao Zhao almost fall down, and was about to take action, but he saw a flash of golden light from the opponent's waist that was invisible to the naked eye.
Jiang Yiqing was very familiar with this golden light. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and it seemed that he didn't need to take action.
Dafu on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. He had just been considering whether he could catch the person if he jumped up.
After a while, several firefighters brought the man who had jumped from the building down. The man lowered his head and said nothing, so his expression could not be seen clearly.
The other party seemed to have calmed down.
Seeing this, the people who were isolated outside immediately started talking at once: "Young man, how old are you? Listen to what your uncle said, there is nothing you can't overcome. No matter what time it is, life is the most important. If you lose your life, it will be too late to regret."
"Good job, firefighters!"
"Young man, you are very handsome. Do you have a partner? Auntie will introduce you to someone."
Several firefighters were busy with work, so naturally no one replied to him.
At this moment, the man who had been silent all this time suddenly broke away from several firefighters. At the same time, he pulled out a knife from somewhere and stabbed himself in the chest, shouting, "Please, leave me alone, let me go..." Before he
finished speaking, he felt a pain in his hand, and the knife in his hand flew out. Then he felt a pain in his head, and his head tilted, and he fainted.
Dafu stood up, looked at the fainted man, and touched his nose: "Uh... I didn't mean to kick his head."
The little rabbit just wanted to kick the knife out of the man's hand, but he didn't expect that the other party's head was too close, so his kick was not so accurate, and the other party's head was also affected.
Looking at the man who had fainted, the firefighter came back to his senses and gave Dafu a thumbs up: "Little brother, you are very skilled."
Dafu smiled embarrassedly, his head moving, looking for Jiang Yiqing.
Jiang Yiqing walked over, glanced at the man lying on the ground, and said: "We are also responsible for him fainting, let's go with him."
The man was not a criminal suspect and did not need to be strictly guarded, but he would most likely need psychological counseling when he woke up. After all, if he was not fainted, he might still try to kill himself.
"Okay, but don't get close to him."
Jiang Yiqing nodded and followed them to the hospital.
The firefighter patted the stunned Xiao Zhao and waved in front of him: "What are you thinking about?"
Xiao Zhao came back to his senses, looked at Jiang Yiqing's back and shook his head: Why did he feel that the man just now was very familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
This shouldn't be the case. If he had seen that man before, he would definitely remember him.
Xiao Zhao shook his head and muttered: "Maybe I remembered it wrong. By the way, I have something to tell the captain, so I'll go back to the team first."
"Go ahead, we don't need so many people here."
Xiao Zhao nodded, couldn't wait to go back to the team, and told him about his experience just now.
The captain was originally sitting on a stool and listening. When he heard what Xiao Zhao said, he stood up suddenly and looked at Xiao Zhao with a serious look: "Are you serious? You are not exaggerating?"
Xiao Zhao was nervous when he looked at him, and nodded: "It's true."
He said, and smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for the talisman paper, captain, I would have..."
He didn't finish his words, but the captain obviously understood his unfinished intention and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will report this matter as soon as possible."
After the captain left, Xiao Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, Li remembered that it was no wonder that he felt that the man was familiar. Wasn't that Master Jiang that his girlfriend always liked to see? Unexpectedly,
it was such a coincidence that he happened to run into him. It was a pity that he didn't remember who the other person was at that time, otherwise he must thank him in person.
Here, Xiao Zhao was secretly upset, but Jiang Yiqing knew nothing about it.
Dafu didn't use much force when he kicked him, after all, he just wanted to kick the knife out of the other person's hand.
So the man woke up before they got to the hospital. After waking up, he looked around, and probably found that he was not dead yet, so he closed his eyes again.
The whole person exuded an aura of "I want to die", which made people want to beat him up.
When they arrived at the hospital, the man was given a full body examination, and it was found that except for the injury on his head, he was physically healthy, but he had big psychological problems.
The man didn't want to say anything. After he fainted, he became silent. He seemed to be unable to hear what others asked, as if he was always immersed in his own world. The
psychological expert was helpless for a while. If he wanted the other party to open up, he had to be willing to communicate first.
"In his current situation, if no one is watching him, he might still commit suicide." The psychologist said: "We need to contact his family as soon as possible to see if we can use his family as a breakthrough point." "
He won't say anything now, and there is no way to contact him at all."
At this time, the police came over and said that they had found the man's information.
The man was 27 years old, named Wang Diqian, and he was indeed doing business, doing food processing.
At his age, being able to make such a career is already considered a child of destiny. Unfortunately, some time ago, the products produced by his food factory failed the inspection and were all rejected.
Wang Diqian had prepared this batch of goods for a long time. He originally wanted to make a fortune from it, but such a big problem occurred. You can imagine how serious the loss is.
Wang Diqian has been smooth sailing since he was a child, and his business has never encountered any major problems. This has led to his weak ability to withstand the pressure. This blow made him want to die.
The police said: "We have contacted his family and they will be here soon."
The others breathed a sigh of relief. That's good. If his family comes to persuade him, it should be fine.
Jiang Yiqing glanced at Wang Diqian, but felt that the situation might not be so optimistic.
"Can I go over and talk to him?" Jiang Yiqing asked the nurse at the hospital.
The nurse looked at Jiang Yiqing and was stunned for a moment. This man was really too good-looking. However, due to her professional qualities as a nurse, she quickly came to her senses and nodded, saying, "Okay. But now he doesn't care what others say. Maybe nothing you say will be of any use."
Jiang Yiqing nodded and thanked the nurse for the reminder with a smile. He walked to Wang Diqian and sat down, glancing at him.
Wang Diqian didn't react at all, as if he had completely lost his sense of the surrounding environment and couldn't see him. Jiang Yiqing
was not in a hurry. After looking at Wang Diqian for a moment, he said, "You don't look like someone who would take shortcuts."
Wang Diqian didn't say anything.
Jiang Yiqing continued, "So the problem with that batch of food has nothing to do with you."
Wang Diqian still didn't say anything, but his eyes moved. I don't know what he thought of, and he closed his eyes again.
Jiang Yiqing: "Don't you want to know why this batch of food has problems? If you die, the person who replaced the raw materials will be very happy. After all, he made a profit from it, and no one has been held accountable. What a good thing."
Wang Diqian finally reacted. He turned his head and stared at Jiang Yiqing: "Knowing who it is, what can we do?"
The money he owed was an astronomical figure for him. When would he be able to pay it back?
"Didn't I just say that I can tell fortunes?" Jiang Yiqing said slowly: "I calculated that you should be rich and powerful, and you will become a leading food industry tycoon in the future. Well... the premise is that you are alive."
The people around him were puzzled. It was the first time they heard someone give such advice. Would it really work?
Wang Diqian has already made up his mind to die, so how could he change his mind because of an illusory future?
Facts have proved that he would. The
reason why Wang Diqian wanted to die was because he could not see the future. His own ability was unquestionable, but he was young after all and could not withstand such a big blow. He was not sure whether he could make a comeback in the future, and he did not have the courage to face a dark future.
However, now someone suddenly told him that if he passed this hurdle, his future would be bright.
This affirmative support alone was enough to support his extinguished hope to revive.
Wang Diqian finally turned around and looked at Jiang Yiqing. His lips were so dry and cracked that they were peeling. He moved his mouth and wanted to say something.
Jiang Yiqing smiled and said softly, "Would you like some water?"
Wang Diqian's eyes moved and he nodded slowly, "Thank you...thank you."
The nurse next to him was shocked. Is this possible? Ah, you are indeed a Chinese who believe in good things and not bad things.
This is the advantage of the Chinese. If the fortune teller says something bad, they will not believe it. If the other party says something good, they will definitely believe it unwaveringly.
A nurse immediately brought water. Wang Diqian sat up and drank a glass of water directly. His lips were finally not so dry and cracked.
I don't know if it's because he finally recovered his energy and spirit, but his complexion looked much better.
Wang Diqian put down the water glass and looked at Jiang Yiqing, "Do you know why I believe you?"
Jiang Yiqing raised his eyebrows slightly.
Wang Diqian smiled: "I know you, I've watched your live broadcast."
Dafu's eyes lit up as he watched from the side. Wow, Qingqing is so amazing, many people know him.
"So, I believe what you said." Wang Diqian said.
Jiang Yiqing didn't feel guilty being looked at by him, he was telling the truth, Wang Diqian was indeed destined to be rich and powerful in the future.
Wang Diqian lowered his eyes: "That batch of food..."
Jiang Yiqing glanced at his expression: "Your parents should be here soon..."
Wang Diqian raised his hands and rubbed his face hard: "Actually, I vaguely guessed it."
Because of this, he was even more reluctant to face it.
Dafu was confused as he listened to it. What kind of riddle were they talking about? Dafu
wanted to ask Jiang Yiqing, but he was too embarrassed, so he had to use his brain madly.
Not long after, Wang Diqian's parents came in a hurry.
The old couple in their sixties had tears on their faces, especially Wang's mother. When she saw Wang Diqian, she immediately rushed over and said, "Diqian, you scared me to death! Why are you so depressed? If I had known, I would have kept a close eye on you and not let you go out!"
Wang's father also wiped his tears and kept repeating, "It's okay, it's okay."
"Diqian, are you all right? Let's work it out together. Don't be upset. It's just a debt. Mom and Dad can take out all their savings and maybe we can make up for it a little." Mother Wang looked at her thinner son with distress and touched Wang Diqian's face with her rough hands: "Dad and Dad still have about one million here. Let's work it out together for the rest." Father Wang
paused when he heard this. When Mother Wang turned around to look at him, his eyes were a little evasive.
Mother Wang poked him with her elbow: "Old man, say something!"
Father Wang came back to his senses and nodded quickly: "Hey, let's work it out together. Let's work it out together."
He said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Jiang Yiqing looked at Father Wang, who wished he could write the word "guilty" on his face, with a slightly cold look in his eyes.
But the Queen Mother's attention was all on Wang Diqian, and she didn't notice the abnormality of the King's father.
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, Wang Diqian, who had been silent, looked at them: "Where did you get so much money?"
The Queen Mother heard this, her lips trembled: "Diqian, what do you mean? This money... is all saved by us."
"How can you save so much money?" Wang Diqian said again, he looked at his two relatives with sharp eyes, and said: "Mom, you worked in a restaurant before, and your monthly salary was 2,500, am I right?"
Wang's mother twitched her fingers nervously and nodded: "Yes..."
"My father used to be a mason, and his monthly salary was a little higher, about 6,000 or 7,000, right?" Wang Diqian continued: "But that was in the past. Later, you got older and stopped working. So, where did this one million come from?"
"I...we, Diqian, you forgot that we saved the money you gave us every month and didn't spend it." Wang's mother looked away and lowered her head.
"I gave it to you?" Wang Diqian closed his eyes, looking at his mother who was still unwilling to confess, and felt disappointed: "When I just graduated, the money I earned was barely enough for myself. It wasn't until two years later that I gave you money. Up to now, have I given you two hundred thousand in total?"
Wang's mother and father didn't say anything.
Wang Diqian was furious, and he slapped the bedside frantically, as if he didn't feel any pain: "It's already this late, and you still don't want to tell the truth, cough cough cough..."
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Wang's mother cried anxiously and quickly grabbed Wang Diqian's arm: "I was wrong, we...we thought that anyway, the things we made would be the same, and the taste wouldn't be much different, I...we could save as much as we could! In the end, all the money we saved would be given to you, right?"
Wang Diqian looked at this mother who was always gentle and kind in his impression. At this moment, her face was so hateful, and she even thought it was for his own good.
Wang Diqian felt dizzy and seemed to have fainted from anger.
