Tao Mu and his gang watched in fear, fearing that Wu Xiaoxuan's parents would also howl in front of them. Fortunately, there is always a way out - weirdos like the Zhang family are relatively rare.
Wu Xiaoxuan's parents were also very sad when they saw their daughter in the intensive care unit. But they did not have the momentum of the Zhang family, who were so eager to sell their own daughter for a good price. Not that shameless.
The old couple also had tears in their eyes and cried so hard that they looked unrecognizable. Two pairs of rough hands held Tao Mu's hands tightly and thanked him: "Thank you, young man, and thank you all. If it weren't for your help, my daughter might not come back. We old couple have only given birth to such a daughter in most of our lives. If something happens to her..."
Wu Xiaoxuan's mother wiped away her tears with her backhand. Sniffing: "Thank you, thank you police, thank you doctor..."
Wu Xiaoxuan's parents are probably the most representative group of ordinary people born in the 40s and 50s. When they were young, they took over their parents' job. Later, there was a wave of layoffs and both the couple were laid off. So they set up a pancake stall near their home to sell pancakes. Later, the pancake stall was turned into a snack bar, and the old couple relied on this snack bar to support their family of three. I have worked diligently and honestly for half my life. The farthest place I have ever been to is Tongzhou, the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen is the Great Wall, and I have never left my one and a half acres of land in my entire life.
When Wu Xiaoxuan's parents received the report from the H Town police, they were stunned on the phone. The couple closed the small restaurant in a daze and took the train all the way to H Town. They almost got lost when they got off the train and carried their luggage to find the police patrolling outside the train station. The police took him to the police station. As soon as he entered the police station, he was about to kneel down before the police, but was stopped by Officer Yao and others. Send to hospital. When you get to the hospital, you have to kneel down to the doctor. Now that he had met Tao Mu and the others, although he did not kneel down, the simplicity and humility in his words made people feel sad.
It's really intolerable.
"Auntie, don't worry. The doctor said the operation was very successful. We just have to wait for the child to wake up at night." Qin Miaoru, who had been standing by to watch the show, nudged Wu Xiaoxuan's mother with her shoulder as a way of comforting her. He then handed one of the three buckets of pork rib soup he had cooked to Mother Wu: "You came from such a far place like the capital, you didn't have any food on the way, right? I have some ready-made pork rib soup. It was originally made for the three little girls. Have a sip first, and I'll make it for them when we get back."
"Thank you, my daughter." Wu Xiaoxuan's mother looked at Qin Miaoru's Shamatte look and didn't dare to speak at first. Qin Miaoru stuffed the thermos into Mother Wu's arms and helped her sit down on the plastic chair beside the corridor.
A group of burly northern men followed Qin Miaoru closely, helping Mrs. Wu and Mr. Wu put the luggage aside.
When Zhang Hanya's family saw such a group of burly and ferocious men suddenly rushing out, they were a little scared at first. Later, when he saw that these people were easy to talk to, he became arrogant again.
"Old sister, don't listen to their tricks. If it weren't for that damn girl Yun Duo's instigation, our child would be so obedient. How could he run so far away? In my opinion, their family should be fully responsible for this matter. The medical expenses of our two families, as well as any nursing fees and mental damages, must all be reimbursed by their family."
——Why is there a question of compensation for mental damage? Everyone was dissatisfied. Gou Rixin frowned and was about to speak when he heard Zhang Hanya's mother continue, "And about the operation. We, as parents, didn't sign at all, and the hospital did the operation without saying a word. What if something goes wrong? What if the child can't wake up? Who will be responsible for this? I heard that this operation without the family's signature is a major medical accident!"
So he's here to form an alliance!
Everyone was angry and amused when they heard this. Officer Yao couldn't help but say, "Auntie, we police officers signed for the hospital operation. The matter is urgent, and we can't wait that long. We can only make do with expediency-"
"We don't understand whether it's expedient or not. We just know that no one told us!" Zhang Hanya's uncle huddled behind his sister who weighed 200 kilograms, looked at the police crookedly, and muttered timidly: "You sign, you should be responsible. We are alive and well, still jumping around at home, but here we can't wake up. How did the operation succeed when this person can't wake up? What if he really becomes a vegetable, what will happen to the rest of his life? Where can we go to seek justice?"
"And the medical expenses! Didn't you catch those bad guys? Since you caught them, can you let them pay? It was them who made the child like this anyway. They should have the obligation to pay for the child's medical treatment!"
Officer Yao stopped talking too. Well, the police did catch the criminal. But making prisoners pay compensation is obviously not something they can decide.
"Auntie, you are being unreasonable, aren't you? The police officers finally rescued your daughter from the pyramid scheme den and sent her to the hospital in time. Instead of thanking you, you are complaining. Did we save the wrong person?" Damao couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Are there any people like you? You are bringing shame to the people of our capital."
"Hey, kid, how can you talk like that? Is that how your parents taught you to talk to your elders?"
Da Mao sneered, with his explosive temper: "My father didn't teach me this. He told me not to endure it if I met someone who deserved a beating. Some people are just pushing it too far, so don't indulge them!"
"Hey, you little brat--" Zhang Hanya's uncle rolled up his sleeves, but when he saw Gou Rixin and his gang standing behind Damao calmly, he immediately wilted.
Zhang Hanya's mother and her aunt suddenly cried out again: "My poor daughter! Why are you so unlucky! You said you had a good life but you insisted on coming to H Town! Now you are lying on the hospital bed, half dead and half alive. How is your mother going to live the rest of her life? Why don't we just die together!"
Everyone in the Yun family looked at each other. Yun Xingjian is a senior intellectual and the most famous cardiac surgeon at the First People's Hospital of Yanjing. He has seen several patients' families like the Zhang family while working at the hospital. In the final analysis, I understand the needs of the Zhang family better.
"Let's put it this way. Our Yun family will pay for the children's medical expenses. Not only Hanya's, but also Xiaoxuan's. However, as parents, we have to make one thing clear. The three children decided to come to H Town together. It was not our Yun Duo who instigated them to come. You elders should not say that."
"How can this be possible? How can we let your family pay for it..." When Wu Xiaoxuan's parents heard Yun Xingjian's words, their first reaction was to refuse. Although their family is not as well-off as the Yun family, Wu Xiaoxuan's parents brought all their family savings with them when they came to H Town this time. Besides, as Yun Xingjian said, the three children had agreed to travel to H Town together, and now Yun Duo has gotten into trouble too. How could they, as parents, have the nerve to let the Yun family pay for everyone's medical expenses?
"——What if the child has any sequelae in the future?" The reaction of Wu Xiaoxuan's parents was completely different. Zhang Hanya's mother asked reflexively: "Didn't you hear what the doctor said! Our Hanya has a brain injury and may have sequelae in the future. What if the child wakes up and becomes stupid, or has any sequelae, what should we do? The child is only 18 years old this year, and his life has just begun! Do you also have to be responsible for the child's second half of his life?"
"This is too shameless!" Qin Miaoru couldn't stand it any more: "I say, you are clearly trying to blackmail me, right?"
"What's the matter with you?" Zhang Hanya's mother looked at Qin Miaoru, whose hair was dyed in various colors and whose makeup was smoky. She was wearing a small black vest that exposed her waist and had a skull pattern printed on it. She was wearing a short skirt that almost reached her thighs. She was wearing leather boots that reached her calves in the middle of summer. There was a line of burly men following her - it was obvious that she was not a decent woman.
Aunt Zhang couldn't stand this kind of girl, but she didn't dare to offend her: "You are still young. How can you know that we mothers are not thinking carefully for our children!"
Qin Miaoru sneered, how can you be considerate of the child? I think you are just thinking about money!
You are obsessed with money!
Tao Mu watched for a long time and almost figured out the Zhang family's temper. But he still said nothing. Mainly because I don't want to deal with this kind of scoundrel.
But Tao Mu didn't expect that he didn't want to provoke a rogue. The scoundrel took the initiative to provoke him - it wasn't really provoking him, but rather provoking the crew of "Jianghu Zhiyuan".
You say that the Zhang family is a scoundrel! I don't know where I got the news from, but in order to save the three girls, Tao Mu begged the big names from the "Jiang Hu Zhi Yuan" crew to mobilize their connections to look for people everywhere. The whole family actually ran to the gate of H Town Film and Television City, knelt down with a banner, and asked the stars from the crew of "Jianghu Zhiyuan" to donate money to help their daughter.
This has really stirred up a hornet's nest. Do you know how many gossip paparazzi there are who wait outside the entrance of film and television cities every day to look for news? After so many days of waiting without even a glimpse of gossip about a love affair or coming out, now something so explosive comes out. The paparazzi, who have been waiting for performance, salary increases, and so on, suddenly go crazy. A large group of people split into two groups, one group went up to interview the Zhang family, and the other group swarmed into the "Jiang Hu Zhi Yuan" crew, and started interviewing and taking photos.
Cheng Baodong and his gang are going crazy. It's madness.
——Speaking of this kind of thing, if you communicate well in advance and both of you are willing, after the celebrity donates the money, he or she can also buy an announcement to praise himself or herself or something, which is a win-win situation. But the key point is that he just knelt at the entrance of the film and television city without saying anything, and threw a tantrum and was unreasonable. Anyone would feel uncomfortable if they were in this situation.
Cheng Baodong and the others were talking about how Tao Mu was a good kid just a second ago. He looked deep and cold, but he was actually kind-hearted and honest! Moreover, they were able to rescue the person from the pyramid scheme den in such a short time. Not to mention the tricks used, it was definitely not ordinary. As a result, the next second, the Zhang family caused such a scene, and everyone in the crew was put in trouble.
Cheng Baodong was so angry that he immediately cursed: "I said that Tao Mu's grandson is not a good bird. He caused us such a big trouble. But he just patted his butt and left!"
The big names did not agree with Cheng Baodong's obviously angry and rude words. But I do feel a little uncomfortable inside. After all, no one likes the feeling of being morally kidnapped. Especially public figures like them - either they pretend to be rich or they hold on to their money and refuse to surrender even at death. Whatever you choose, it's enough to drink a pot. It was a complete unexpected disaster.
Fortunately, Tao Mu didn't just pat his butt and walk away. Not to mention that he is not that kind of person at all, there is no need to cut off the network of these big shots just because of this group of scoundrels from the Zhang family. As for impression points, once lost, it is very difficult to get them back.
Tao Mu had been in the group for so many days, enduring humiliation and showing off his skills. He had finally won the favor of a group of big shots. How could he tolerate the Zhang family's irrelevant bastards ruining his business?
For a person like Tao Mu, whether you look down on him or embarrass him in person, he may not care. But if you dare to stand in his way, I'm sorry.
After much thought, Tao Musi finally called the number saved in his phone, the number he had always wanted to call but had never had the nerve to call.
"Brother Yao, do you still remember me? I'm Xiao Mu!"
"You kid still remember me! You ran away so far away without saying a word, and only remembered to call me, your brother, after several months. I think you would never come to me for no reason!" A strong Beijing dialect voice came from the other end of the phone. Liu Yao, Tao Mu's boss when he worked in a nightclub, laughed and scolded: "Tell me. What do you want to ask of me, your brother?"
"You are the Buddha, and we monkeys can't get out of your Five Finger Mountain no matter how hard we try." Tao Mu laughed twice: "There is indeed something I want to ask you for a favor..."
"You are really going backwards!" Liu Yao couldn't help but frowning when he heard Tao Mu's words: "You asked your brother to help you scare a bunch of uncles and aunts. If this gets out, will you still have the face of Brother Yao?"
"No need to scare me." Tao Mu said with a smile: "Just help me find out their addresses. Then send someone to give them some canned fruit to help them get to know the place. I'll talk to them about the rest myself."
"That's not a threat. You're just being mean!" Liu Yao sneered, "Alright. You're my brother after all. I'll risk it all. I'll wait for you to come back. Shouldn't I prepare a feast for you myself? Thank you, brother, for doing such a small thing for you without even being afraid of losing face?"
"That's a must. Thank you, Brother Yao. I will definitely prepare a full banquet for you to drink. By the way, how is Brother Xiao Qi? Can you bring me some good things?" Tao Mu tentatively asked about Liu Yao, who was also the red card of the nightclub who had given Tao Mu a lot of advice back then.
"Your brother Qi is still like that! He is popular with thousands of rich ladies and daughters, and even though he has quit his job, there are still people calling and texting him every day! They ask him out for tea and chat. Now he is being asked out to play basketball again!" Liu Yao felt unhappy when he mentioned this matter, and said sourly and angrily: "I say when you come back, just put it up in the store and go into the adult entertainment industry! With your face and figure, and with your brother Qi's true skills, as long as you stand in the store, I guess those people will not care about you, brother Qi."
"That won't do. I want to be a top-tier superstar, and I can't have this kind of dark history!" Tao Mu laughed and talked to his brother Yao. The two chatted for a few more sentences before hanging up the phone.
Coincidentally, Meng Qi came in just as Liu Yao hung up the phone. Seeing their old man sitting on the sofa, holding his phone with a gloomy face, staring at the TV with murderous intent, he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Who pissed you off again?"
"Xiao Mu called me just now." Liu Yao looked at the TV with a gloomy look: "This kid must have been bullied outside. He couldn't stand it anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn't have called me."
Just like Tao Mu said on the phone, he wants to be a big star in the future and cannot have a dark history. So from the day he walked out of "Night", Tao Mu no longer planned to contact anyone in the store.
Tao Mu didn't say this himself, but everyone knew it. So since the day Tao Mu left Ye Se, neither Liu Yao nor anyone else in the store had ever called or sent Tao Mu a message.
Not even on Tao Mu's birthday. I was afraid that Tao Mu would misunderstand the people in the store and still implicate them.
But now, Tao Mu took the initiative to contact them. How could such a stubborn kid be forced into such a desperate situation for him to call and surrender without caring about his dignity?
Meng Qi was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "No matter what. He is a child we have watched grow up. If he is really bullied outside, you can't just ignore him. I know Xiao Mu. He has a little temper, but he is a good person by nature."
"Nonsense! How can I not care about our child?"
When Tao Mu came to work in YeSe, he was only in the first year of high school, not even sixteen years old. The child is very pretty, sweet, quick-witted and capable, and she amazed everyone in the store. From bartenders to resident singers to young masters, so many people's hidden skills were all fooled by this kid.
Liu Yao felt sorry for the child, fearing that something might happen, so he hid and covered the child to prevent Tao Mu from jumping forward. I was afraid that if I couldn't take good care of the place, it would be targeted by some powerful customer. The two were about twenty years apart in age. Although Tao Mu called him brother, he truly regarded Tao Mu as his son. Who told him that he and Meng Qi would never have their own children in this life! When Tao Mu left Ye Se with a resolute attitude, Liu Yao was really heartbroken. When he was drunk, he even yelled at Meng Qi: "Damn it, Grandpa Liu has been on the road for so many years and has seen all kinds of people. You look down on us, but we don't even want to bother with you. From now on, we will go our separate ways. I want to see what kind of person you can become!"
But now Tao Mu called, and before he could say a few soft words, Liu Yao himself became soft. After all, he is the child you have watched grow up. Even if he makes mistakes, you should be the one to beat and scold him. What's the point of letting outsiders bully him?
"Damn it, I did a good deed but still got blackmailed by the family. It would be embarrassing for me if anyone tells anyone about it. Can some street thug bully my brother?" Liu Yao's eyes were red and he immediately made several phone calls to his subordinates. After hanging up the phone, he started to talk to Meng Qi again: "You said Xiao Mu will be back soon. Where will he live? Why don't you let Xiao Mu live in your house in Dongcheng District first. That way he won't have nowhere to go during the weekends."
Before Tao Mu graduated from high school, he had been living in the Ye Se staff dormitory. But now Tao Mu has been admitted to university, a film school that specializes in producing stars, so it is not appropriate for him to live with that group of people.
Meng Qi looked at their Liu Yao with amusement and couldn't help teasing him: "Hey, I remember someone said that we won't have any contact with each other in the future, right?"
"Those were just words said in anger!" Liu Yao waved his hands seriously, his face flushed and his neck thick, his mouth grinning from ear to ear, but he pretended not to care: "Now the child has taken the initiative to give in to us. We are both over 40 years old and grown men, how can we still argue with a little brat?"
Meng Qi chuckled, "Then you accompany me tomorrow to clean up my house. It's been a while since anyone has lived here, and it's time to replace some of the furniture. And give it a computer. And don't just say that Xiao Mu will live in the house, just say that we rent it to him. That way he won't be embarrassed."
Liu Yao snorted: "You think too much."
On the other side, Tao Mu hung up the phone and squatted down against the wall. He buried his head in his knees for a long time, and suddenly slapped himself.
"Tao Mu, you are a bastard!"
Liu Yao and Meng Qi are scars in Tao Mu's heart that he cannot speak of. These two people are the ironclad evidence of Tao Mu's ruthless and cruel character.
In his previous life, Tao Mu disliked the people in Ye Se because of their low status and didn’t want to be involved with them. Due to Liu Yao's power, Tao Mu didn't dare to say it before leaving Yanjing, but his attitude was very clear.
What kind of person is Liu Yao? Although I am older now and have started to run my business in an honest manner, I also did a lot of fooling around when I was young. How could he not see Tao Mu's little thoughts? So after Tao Mu left Ye Se, Liu Yao really gave up the idea of continuing the relationship. Moreover, Boss Liu not only gave up this idea, but also restricted everyone in the store from contacting Tao Mu.
Later, Tao Mu returned to the Shen family and became the young master of the Shen family. The two groups of people would not have any interactions with each other.
But just when Tao Mu offended Shen Yu and was kicked out of the Shen family, and was jointly blocked by Shen Yu's admirers and blacklisted on the entire Internet, it was Liu Yao who took action and taught a lesson to the media and marketing accounts headquartered in Yanjing one by one. Use tough measures to force these marketing accounts to withdraw all the articles that slander Tao Mu. He also asked these media and marketing accounts to publicly apologize to Tao Mu online. Of course, Boss Liu’s methods are definitely not so conventional. So in the end, this incident became one of Tao Mu's handles, and became the evidence for Tao Mu being banned by the higher-ups.
However, what made Tao Mu feel most guilty was that Liu Yao was targeted by Shen Yu's admirer because he helped him. A group of people joined hands to destroy Brother Yao's career. You know, prostitution in nightclubs is a business that cannot withstand investigation. In the end, Liu Yao was forced by these people to stay in Yanjing and had to take Meng Qi back to Meng Qi's hometown. Years of career were ruined.
But even so, the two of them met with Tao Mu before leaving, and told Tao Mu not to get upset.
"I don't want to work here anymore. It's good to go back to my hometown. Our hometown is beautiful with clear water and green mountains. When the time comes, your brother Xiao Qi and I will contract a large piece of land in the village, build an orchard, and then build a farmhouse. It's fashionable to return to nature now. Your brother Xiao Qi and I will also keep up with the trend!"
"When you have time, bring Zhuo Yan over to play. Your brother Xiao Qi and I will be happy to show you how to play."
But later, Zhuo Yan, the person he trusted and relied on the most, also betrayed him! Tao Mu was so desperate that he just wanted to jump off the building, and he never went to Brother Xiao Qi's hometown.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Tao Mu let down a lot of people in his previous life.
In this life, he wants to pick up all the people who are good to him. Hold them in the most precious place in your arms like a treasure, protect them carefully, and never let anyone hurt them again.
The others were easy to deal with, except for the "Yese" gang. He was ignorant at the time and acted too ruthlessly, while Brother Yao and Brother Xiao Qi were too smart. Tao Mu originally didn't know how to get in touch with these people again, but he didn't expect that the Zhang family would help him.
It's good like this for now.
He took the initiative to call and surrender, looking miserable and pitiful. Even if Brother Yao and Brother Xiao Qi were angry, they couldn't bear to see him suffer any injustice, even in their previous life. I must be even more reluctant now.
So you see, Tao Mu is also loved by someone.
Tao Mu wiped his eyes and felt that it was really bad to block the palm of the eye of the flying insect. It choked his throat!
