Chapter 279 The Beginning of a New Life
Across the highway not far from here, Yun Tao and Heng Heng were locked up in one of the houses by Tang Si Luo. The light was a little dim and the weather was hot and humid. Yun Tao unbuttoned a button on Heng Heng's collar and said to him, seeing that Heng Heng looked listless and wanted to sleep:
"Go to sleep, lie on daddy's lap and rest for a while."
Heng Heng shook his head and sat next to Yun Tao stubbornly. He looked at the four men guarding them with guns and asked Yun Tao, "Dad, will Aunt An Ran come to save us?"
"I will." Yun Tao hugged Heng Heng, patted Heng Heng's little shoulder, and looked down at Heng Heng's little face. "You have to have some confidence in Aunt An Ran. She won't let anything happen to us."
"But, these people look very powerful." Heng Heng was not sure if An Ran could beat these people, and these people were holding guns. Then he raised his little face, looked at Yun Tao again, and asked: "Dad, why do we come to Tiesi Village? Aunt An Ran just said that we don't need to enter Tiesi Village."
Moreover, the people in Tiesi Village didn't seem to welcome them either.
"To forget the past." Yun Tao lowered his eyes, his hair graying more and more, but the smile on his face was kind, "and to look forward to the future."
Although the Wire Village might be different from his imagination, or from everyone's imagination, they have been there before. They have experienced the greatest pain in life in the original place. These unbearable pains in life need to be forgotten during the journey.
Coming to Tiesi Village, life may not be satisfactory, but at least it is the beginning of a new life.
Yun Tao is older than An Ran and Zhan Lian. He has his own detached way of looking at things. If a person wants to start a new life, he must meet new people. Only in this way will he have new opportunities, instead of staying in the pain of the past.
Hengheng seemed to understand what was said and nodded. He turned his little face and watched the door being opened a crack. The crack slowly widened and Zhan Lianhuo walked in with a stern face.
Don't get me wrong, he was still a little upset from yelling at that gossipy Tang Siluo.
Hengheng was a little afraid of this man and shrank closer to Yuntao. Yuntao, on the other hand, looked calm. He hugged Hengheng tightly and looked at Zhan Lian calmly.
"Brother Lian."
"Brother Lian, you are here."
The men who were guarding Yun Tao and Heng Heng with guns turned around and greeted Zhan Lian. Zhan Lian nodded and said, "Alright, guys, go away. I'll take care of things here."
Then several men with guns went out. Zhan Lian pulled a chair and sat in front of Yun Tao, face to face, looking at Yun Tao with a rather sharp aura. He did not say anything, just sat there, looking at Yun Tao, with obvious scrutiny in his bright eyes.
Yun Tao extended a hand to Zhan Lian, breaking the silence, "Hello, my name is Yun Tao."
Zhan Lian didn't shake it. He glanced down at Yun Tao's hand and laughed sarcastically, "We are all smart people. What's the point of playing these polite words?"
Then, Zhan Lian slowly raised his eyes, with murderous intent in his eyes, and asked, "I just want to ask you one question, let's not play tricks, did you bully my wife?"
"No." Yun Tao looked into Zhan Lian's eyes and answered seriously, "Your wife? Aren't you divorced?"
