Yu Chengfei lay down, and so did I. Both of us lay on our backs, letting the starlight in the sky shine on us.
"Fortunately, both adults are fine." Yu Chengfei sighed long and deeply.
"Yeah." I also relaxed. This matter is finally over. If it weren't for Yu Chengfei, I don't know what to do. So I said simply: "Brother Yu, thank you."
"Thank you for what?" Yu Chengfei said, "Isn't this also my business?"
I put my hands under my head and couldn't help thinking of King Kong's severed hand. I couldn't help but feel sick again. I didn't feel sorry for him. I even thought he deserved to die. But it was my first time seeing such a bloody scene, and I was a little uncomfortable. But I knew I had to adapt. If I wanted to protect the people around me, I had to make myself more ruthless.
When Yuan Shao decisively cut off one of King Kong's hands, I knew that all the people I had met in Chenggao and Beiqi were not as cruel as Yu Chengfei and his gang. But as cruel as Yu Chengfei and his gang are, there are actually people stronger than them in the Vocational College. Isn't their situation... even more dangerous? Thinking of this, I almost blurted out a sentence in my heart.
"How is it, are you feeling better?" Yu Chengfei stretched out his limbs and said, "When I chopped someone down for the first time, I saw the bloody body and vomited a lot like you. Later, I ran to the top of the mountain alone and lay in the moonlight to rest for a long time. Only then did I feel better, as if the moonlight could wash away my sins."
I said "Oh", and now I know why Yu Chengfei brought me here. I looked at the crescent moon in the sky, and the soft light sprinkled on me, and both my body and mind slowly calmed down.
"After today," Yu Chengfei said, "no one in the entire Dongguan Town should dare to bother you anymore. You can continue to run the store. When you get bored and want to go to school, find your sister Nan Nan and ask her to find a high school for you. Don't you still want to go to the same university as Xia Xue? Go change to a new environment. You're about to enter the second year of high school..."
"Brother Yu." I interrupted him.
"Ah? What's wrong?"
"Take me with you."
"What?" Yu Chengfei seemed startled.
"I say, take me with you." I said seriously, "I'm going to the vocational college to help you."
"No." Yu Chengfei said firmly: "You still have to go to college, this is what you have to do."
"Didn't you want me to go to a vocational college before?" I clearly remember that Yu Chengfei mentioned this when I was studying at Chenggao. Yu Chengfei shook his head: "I was too selfish before and didn't think about your future..."
"Brother Yu." I said, "Do you think I'm useless?"
“No.” Yu Chengfei said, “You are very smart and a very good white paper fan.”
I smiled bitterly: "I thought I was a good red stick." Yu Chengfei also smiled: "If I can beat King Kong with a fire axe and make him flee, I am definitely a good red stick." I smiled even more bitterly: "So, the white paper fan is not well made, and the red stick is not very good either. I want to have both, but in the end, I didn't do a good job. No wonder you don't want to accept me."
"Who said that?" Yu Chengfei laughed: "You are the actual controller of Chenggao, and Beiqi can also be deployed by you. Who wouldn't want such a talent? If Qiu Feng and Nie Yuanlong could get you, they would be so happy that they would run around the vocational college naked."
"Then let me go to the vocational college." I said word by word.
"No." Yu Chengfei said firmly. After that, he stood up and said to me: "There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Let's go back." I had no choice but to stand up and leave with him obediently.
After making sure that both adults were fine, Yu Chengfei and the others left Dongguan Town overnight.
Because the store was smashed and two adults were injured, the store was temporarily closed for a few days. During this time, Xiao Zhishan brought people to help me clean up the store. King Kong did not call the police because his hand was chopped off. Instead, he asked someone to send me 100,000 yuan, saying that he hoped that we would not interfere with each other in the future and that he could make a living in Dongguan Town. I was not soft-hearted and directly said to the person who sent the money: "I will accept the money. But he must leave and never return to Dongguan Town for the rest of his life, otherwise I will chop off his other hand." From then on, King Kong had no news.
This also made me understand once again the importance of "ruthlessness". Walking on this road, there is no logic to it. Whoever has a strong fist and ruthless means can gain a firm foothold on this narrow path.
Xiao Zhishan came to my place more frequently, and he led his four farmers' market tyrants to come to my place to help me at any time, calling me "Uncle Hao" all the time, as if he was trying to curry favor with me to the end. A few days later, they also drove away the man who sold spicy hot pot opposite, saying that he affected my business. I was very angry when I found out, because it was him who reported the matter to me when my store was smashed. So I asked Xiao Zhishan to bring the man back, hoping that he could continue to set up the stall opposite. As a result, he said to me: "Forget it, the business has been almost taken away by you guys, and it doesn't make much sense to set up that stall. However, I would like to go to your place to help, and get a monthly salary, is it okay?"
I thought that I would go to a vocational college sooner or later, so I might as well let him come and help. He is a skilled worker and can definitely do a better job. So we hit it off and I asked him to stay that day. With his joining, the business of the small shop became more prosperous.
