"Thank you, sister, for saving me today."
Shen Jiaojiao didn't take it to heart. "You have to tell me the whole story. If you didn't come here to find someone, why would you make yourself like this? Is there no one to help you?"
"My aunt and the others are all dead. Only my cousin is still alive. But they won't let me see my cousin no matter where she is. They also said that as long as I take out the things my father and the others left behind, they will let me see my cousin. I know they are lying to me."
"You're not a human being."
"At dinner that night, they asked me to drink water. I took a sip and it tasted wrong. It was the taste of the alcohol I had drunk before. I knew they wanted to get me drunk and steal my things while I wasn't paying attention. I wouldn't let them succeed, so I ran away when they weren't paying attention."
"The group of people chasing you just now are from their family?"
The little boy shook his head again. "I don't know. They must be the hooligans outside. They saw that I was little and wanted to beat me up. Sister, I really haven't offended anyone. I don't understand why they treated me like that. If I did something wrong, they could tell me instead of killing me, right?"
Shen Jiaojiao knew that those inhumane people would not consider so many things.
They only think about their own interests, so they don't take the little boy seriously.
"I still can't give you answers to these questions, but I'm a doctor. Would you like to come back with me so I can help you with your wounds?"
He then nodded and said, "I do. I believe my sister."
Shen Jiaojiao smiled then. When they went back, they ran into Zhang Huaying from next door.
Zhang Huaying always saw Shen Jiaojiao coming back alone, but today it was rare to see her bringing someone with her.
But this child is too young and dirty.
She quickly turned to the other side of Shen Jiaojiao's body, "Jiaojiao, who is this little guy, why did you bring him back?"
As Shen Jiaojiao opened the door, she roughly explained the whole story of the little boy, but she heard it all from the little boy, and she didn't know if it was true. Perhaps the little boy had suffered even more serious consequences than he said.
Zhang Huaying was also impatient. "How can this be? Are those people still human? Just looking at that little face makes me sad. Hurry up and take him in to wash up. I'll get you some food."
"Then I'll trouble Sister Ying."
"What's the trouble? We're all neighbors. When encountering something like this, everyone will take the initiative to stand up and help. I've never encountered this before, but if I encounter it today, I will definitely not ignore it."
"You're right. I'll take him in to check his wound first."
"Okay, I'll bring the food over in a moment."
Shen Jiaojiao also felt Zhang Huaying's enthusiasm, and it was naturally good to have one more person to help.
"Please sit down first. You will stay in this room tonight. Although it is a little small, it is better than staying outside."
The little boy was very satisfied. "Meeting my sister is like meeting a bodhisattva."
While helping him treat his wounds, Shen Jiaojiao asked, "I don't know your name yet, what is it?"
"My name is Cheng Yang, and I'm nineteen years old."
"Then don't be younger than me. I'm twenty-one," Shen Jiaojiao said with a smile, "You shouldn't go to the steel mill for the time being. If you really have nowhere else to go, you can stay with me temporarily. I usually live alone, so no one will come here to disturb you. You can still recover from your injuries. But," she paused, "who are those thugs?"
Cheng Yang was not very clear either. He told Shen Jiaojiao what had happened and thought that they might have been sent by his aunt's family.
But Cheng Yang didn't seem to want to think so badly of others, and said with a wry smile: "It's best not to let them run into me again, otherwise I won't let them have an easy time next time. I was beaten by them this time because I was not prepared before."
He lowered his head to glance at his wound. Shen Jiaojiao examined him and found that his calf was broken. It might need to be fixed with a splint, otherwise it would be basically impossible to recover to its original state.
Cheng Yang had no ideas of his own and listened to Shen Jiaojiao.
"Where are your parents?"
"My mother has passed away. My aunt's name is Cheng Yao."
Cheng Yao?
Is he the person Cheng Yang is looking for?
Shen Jiaojiao felt that the name was familiar, and she thought of the heroic deeds posted over there. It seemed that the person was called Cheng Yao.
Speaking of gangsters, Shen Cong is the only one like that in that area.
Then this matter shouldn't be related to Shen Cong, right?
Shen Jiaojiao couldn't figure it out, and looked at Cheng Yang in front of her again.
"You'd better not go out and look for them. In your current state, you're no match for them. If they come, you won't even have time to run away. It's better to stay home for now."
"I'm worried that it will implicate my sister."
Shen Jiaojiao smiled slightly, “Not everyone dares to come to this place.”
Cheng Yang was temporarily safe, but he was still worried about his relatives.
"Sister, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Go ahead."
"My parents are gone. My only hope now is to find my aunt and give her the things my parents left behind. If I can't see her, I must at least see my cousin."
Shen Jiaojiao took a breath and saw that Cheng Yang was serious.
She was too embarrassed to lie anymore, so she said, "Cheng Yang, to be honest, I used to live in the steel plant. I was born and raised there, and I didn't move out until I got married."
Cheng Yang suddenly became excited, "Really? Then sister, you should know where my aunt is, right?"
"If I'm not mistaken, she's passed away."
"Dead?"
"Yes," Shen Jiaojiao told him some of the information she had seen, "Cheng Yang, I know you're upset, but things have already happened, and it should have happened many years ago. I really can't hide it from you. You'd better not go over there. There's a group of thugs there who will beat you to death."
Cheng Yang didn't believe it. He had gone to great lengths to get here, and it was impossible for him to leave without finding anything.
He shook his head and said, "No, I must find my sister. Even if my aunt is dead, my sister must still be alive."
Shen Jiaojiao added: "As for whether your sister is still alive, I'm really not sure, and I don't know her. I only saw these things from the bulletin board and learned about your aunt's affairs. When I heard you say that just now, I thought it was a coincidence."
