In the hospital.
Zhang Ke woke up.
"Um……"
Every time she moved, she felt pain all over her body.
"Xiao Ke, you're awake."
Zhang Ke looked at Li Qiang and asked weakly, "What's wrong with me?"
Li Qiang's eyes were filled with heartache.
"You were in a car accident."
Zhang Ke recalled that when he had the car accident and flipped into the moat, the river water overflowed in an instant.
Her face turned pale in an instant.
She thought she was dead!
I didn't expect to survive!
"Did you save me?"
Li Qiang nodded.
He didn't refute.
After all, he would have jumped even if others didn't.
He will save Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke was moved, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hugged him.
"Brother Qiang!"
Zhang Ke and Li Qiang are from the same village. At home, Zhang Ke is the one who is not loved by his parents and is also the one who is bullied.
Li Qiang has a runaway mother, a disabled father, a sick grandfather and a mean grandmother.
They both had a tough time.
The two of them are each other's salvation and each other's warmth.
But two people at the bottom of society cannot withstand the test of life.
Zhang Ke was stubborn and strong-willed. She was admitted to university, but she had no living expenses.
No one from her family came out.
At that time, Li Qiang heard that he could make money by going abroad, so he went abroad to raise money for Zhang Ke's tuition.
In the first few months, I transferred money back.
There was no more fighting afterwards.
There is no news about the person.
Everyone in his family said that he died abroad.
Zhang Ke was sad for a while, but he had no choice but to keep moving forward.
In fact, Li Qiang was not dead. He still sent money every month, but all the money he sent was embezzled by Zhang Ke’s parents.
Zhang Ke had sneaked overseas at the time, and without any documents, he couldn't come back.
Can only struggle to survive abroad.
A Chinese citizen who has no education, no diploma, no special skills, and even poor English, has a very difficult life abroad.
Later, the financial crisis hit, the dishwasher shop went bankrupt, and he ended up on the streets.
Met his current eldest brother.
For the sake of his elder brother, he has gone through life and death over the years and is covered with wounds.
Finally I have gained fame and ability.
But times have changed, more than 20 years have passed, and he is not sure whether Zhang Ke will wait for her.
Even if Zhang Ke could, her parents would not let Zhang Ke wait.
If Zhang Ke has his own life, why should he disturb her?
He and Zhang Ke met three years ago.
At that time, one of his subordinates stole a Chinese man's bag.
There are rules in the underworld here that require that any stolen items be shown to the gang leader first.
Then the contents are divided equally between the gang and the thief who stole the items.
Li Qiang is in charge of this.
When he checked the contents of his bag he found...
Photos of him and Zhang Ke!
That was the only photo he took with Zhang Ke when he left, which he spent all his money to take.
Made two copies.
One for him and one for Zhang Ke.
His photo had been lost somewhere during his struggles.
Now this one...can only be Zhang Ke's.
He anxiously grabbed the younger brother's collar and asked him who he was robbing and where the person was.
When he found Zhang Ke, Zhang Ke had already called the police and was explaining the robbery to them.
When he moved closer, he heard Zhang Ke say something in English.
"The money inside doesn't matter, I just want the photo."
In an instant, Zhang Qiang's heart was deeply touched!
He and Zhang Ke had been separated for so many years, and he originally thought that Zhang Ke had long forgotten him and started a new life.
As a result, she still remembered him...
He walked forward with a smile.
"Ma'am, is this your lost wallet?"
Zhang Ke saw the familiar wallet and immediately grabbed it excitedly.
"It's mine! Thank you, thank you!"
She was the first one to not care about the money inside, but to open the compartment and look for photos.
But the photo is gone!
Zhang Ke: The sky is falling!
The money in the wallet was still there, but the faded photo was gone!
"Where are the photos? Where are my photos?"
Li Qiang looked at her with emotion.
"The person in the photo is me. Why should I return my photo to you?"
Zhang Ke was stunned at that time, and then she slowly set her eyes on Li Qiang's face. After her eyes lingered for a long time, she finally recognized Li Qiang...
Tears welled up in my eyes immediately!
"Brother Qiang!"
The two hugged each other excitedly.
From then on, she often came to Country H for vacation just to see Li Qiang.
This time, Yang Xue was going to be taken abroad to film a movie, so she came along, working while dating Li Qiang.
Zhang Ke was very gentle on the hospital bed.
"Brother Qiang, you saved me again."
When she was young, if Li Qiang hadn't saved her, she would have been sold to an old bachelor!
How could I have the glamorous life I have today?
Li Qiang peeled an apple for her.
He is not good with words.
But all the love was given to Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke didn't mind either. This was how they had always gotten along: he accompanied her while she talked.
"Brother Qiang, has Xu Xingran contacted you?"
Li Qiang shook his head.
"She probably won't contact me. You gave her your business card and I saw her throw it into the trash can after passing it around."
Zhang Ke was stunned.
Then sneered.
"It seems that her mother told her about me! This little girl is also very good at pretending!"
Zhang Ke was originally testing Xu Xingran.
She wasn't sure whether Xu Xingran's mother had mentioned her.
Now it seems that it must have been mentioned.
Li Qiang gave her the apple: "Don't worry, after tonight, she won't be an obstacle to you."
Zhang Ke kissed Li Qiang on the lips.
"Brother Qiang, be clean."
*
"ah--"
Xu Xingran suddenly woke up from her dream, her back was covered in cold sweat and her pretty little face was pale.
"He Hansheng, you're really haunting me!"
She just dreamed that she was locked up by He Hansheng with handcuffs and leg shackles!
Cold sweat!
This madman He Hansheng can definitely do it!
She really couldn't figure it out. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that He Hansheng cared about Xia Qingqing, so why did he keep holding on to her?
Isn’t it good for him and Xia Qingqing to be in love?
Why do you have to tie her up?
Does he like to have a third person in his relationship?
What kind of fetish is this!
Xu Xingran rubbed her temples. She was a little thirsty, so she got up and went to pour some water.
When she took the first sip, she seemed to smell a pungent taste.
It seemed to come from downstairs.
She walked to the stairs, only to see a dark figure sneaking around downstairs.
She yelled, "Who is it?"
The other party suddenly lit a lighter and threw it towards the stairs.
In an instant, the flames raged and reached the stairs to the second floor in minutes.
Someone set a fire!
She went to open the door to the second floor, but it was blocked from the outside!
Someone wants to burn her to death.
She quickly covered her mouth and nose, and banged frantically at the window, hoping someone would see and come to save her.
The thick smoke inhaled into her nose, and her head felt dizzy...
Before she passed out, she seemed to hear someone's heart-wrenching sound.
"Xu Xingran!"
