When Song Lili and her companion found Song Yongren and his group, they were already in town, outside the Revolutionary Committee building.
"Big Brother, how is it?" Song Lili asked, grabbing Song Yongren.
"Lili, you're here?" Song Yongren said with surprise. "Daming has been arrested, and he looks very bad."
"What's wrong?" Song Lili paused.
“He keeps coughing, I think he’s sick, and he’s not clear-headed, he’s drowsy. If this continues, how can he hold on? He’s going to die.”
Song Yongren was so anxious that his mouth was almost blistering. He liked Wang Daming very much because he was a polite and good-natured boy.
But who could have imagined something like this would happen? Being caught by the Red Guards, his life was probably over.
Even though he was anxious, there was nothing he could do; he could only watch helplessly as the child suffered.
“Dad, you and Big Brother should go back. It’s just Sister-in-law and Fangfang at home, and I’m a little worried about them. I’ll take care of things here,” Song Lili suddenly said.
"Lili, you... sigh... okay, let's go back."
Song Yongren originally wanted to blame Song Lili, but how could they leave in Wang Daming's current state?
But then he suddenly realized that even if he stayed here, there was nothing he could do, so he might as well go home.
He was worried about leaving his youngest daughter at home, so he decided to let Lili stay here, thinking there might be a way to resolve the situation.
“Jianshe, let’s go home. Your sister can stay here and watch over things.” Song Yongren seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden.
"Uncle, don't worry, I'll stay here with Lili." Zhang Qinghua stepped forward and came out from behind Song Lili.
"Qinghua is here too?" Song Yongren was a little surprised, but now he was even more relieved. Both of these children were good children, and he was at ease.
"Okay, then let's go home. Lili, if you can, you must save Daming, okay? Otherwise, the child might not make it."
"Big Sister, I know, don't worry. I'll figure something out right away." Song Lili said slowly, but her eyes were like the deep sea, devoid of light, so dark it was frightening.
After Song Yongren and Song Jianshe left, Song Lili didn't just wait there. "Let's go check out the supply and marketing cooperative," she said.
Although the supply and marketing cooperative is closed now, such a big thing has happened, surely they've all left?
I went there, and sure enough, Jinxia was still there.
"Sister Jin, what exactly happened? How did Wang Daming suddenly become a speculator?" Song Lili asked quickly upon seeing this.
"I don't know either. Yesterday afternoon, just before we were about to leave work, those people suddenly rushed in and said that the director was speculating and undermining socialism, so they took him away."
"I don't know what to do either. I'll just wait here and see if the director will be released. Lili, do you have any ideas?" Jinxia was also anxious.
Although Wang Daming is young, he is usually very nice to her, so she is genuinely worried about him.
"Sister Jin, I... don't have any ideas for the time being. I just came to ask what's going on. You don't know either, right?"
"I don't know," Jin Xia shook her head.
Song Lili was somewhat disappointed. "Well... Sister Jin, I'll go now and go look around somewhere else." Song Lili decided to go find Qian Liulin, at least to let Wang Dazhi know the news.
Jin Xia was also disappointed and nodded dejectedly.
At this point, it's already quite good that Song Lili remembered to come over and ask nine questions. Didn't she see that many people were avoiding her?
Therefore, Jin Xia did not have high hopes for Song Lili.
Just as Song Lili was about to walk out, Jin Xia suddenly called out to her, "Lili, you...you should be careful too."
"Huh? Why would Sister Jin say that?" Song Lili asked in confusion.
"Yes...it was the people who came to arrest the director yesterday. I overheard them by chance. They said you, Lili, are next."
"Are you sure he really said that?" Song Lili's face immediately darkened, and her tone became cold and dangerous.
It seems that she's the one who dragged Wang Daming down.
So, it goes without saying who that person is: Luo Juan, or that lackey Chen Hongjun? No matter who it is, in the end, this debt will be settled against Luo Juan.
"I...I'm sure." Jin Xia was startled by Song Lili's appearance, swallowed hard, and then said cautiously.
“He was standing right next to me, so I could hear him very clearly.”
"Is he a tall, thin man with a somewhat pointed face?" Song Lili asked with a smirk.
Jin Xia thought for a moment and said, "Yes, it's him. Lili, do you know him?" Jin Xia looked at Song Lili with surprise. Would this solve the problem?
Song Lili sneered, "Yes. We know each other, and our relationship seems to be quite close." They both want the other to be utterly defeated; how could their relationship be shallow?
"That's great, Lili, can we ask him to help the director?" Jinxia said with delight.
"Sister Jin, I'll talk to you later, I'm going to find someone." Song Lili didn't answer Jin Xia's question, but she sneered inwardly. Find Chen Hongjun? Maybe she thinks Wang Daming isn't miserable enough?
However, Luo Juan, it seems you really can't wait. You were humiliated by me yesterday, and today you're taking it out on my friend.
Do you really think I'm a pushover, someone you can bully however you want? You think I won't fight back, huh?
So this time, you're wrong.
Song Lili went to see Qian Liulin first, and at this point she no longer cared about hiding the fact that the two knew each other.
Wang Daming was arrested last night and is probably locked up in a cowshed. No matter how good the environment is there, it's still drafty.
In the dead of winter, if you get cold all morning, you're bound to get sick. If you let it drag on any longer, it'll probably get worse.
The most urgent thing is to find a doctor for Wang Daming so that his illness doesn't get worse.
"Brother Qian, could you possibly get Wang Daming a few pills? My uncle said he's sick. He's been feeling dizzy and disoriented."
After meeting Qian Liulin, Song Lili went straight to the point without saying a word of nonsense.
"What? He's sick? This is terrible! It seems we need to rescue Daming as soon as possible; we can't delay any longer."
When Qian Liulin heard that Wang Daming was sick, he became anxious and immediately overturned his original plan to proceed slowly.
"Brother Qian, does Wang Daming's cousin know about this?"
"I found out this morning. The person is probably on their way right now. They're asking me to see if I can get them out," Qian Liulin sighed.
"Do you have any good ideas?" Song Lili asked, her eyes lowered.
“I was originally planning to find someone today and rescue him in a few days, but he got sick, so that plan won’t work. Right now, I can’t think of anything else to do.”
Most importantly, Qian Liulin was panicking. He was terrified that something might happen to Wang Daming. How could he explain that to Wang Dazhi? How could he face his friend then?
Song Lili also fell silent, because she couldn't think of any good solutions either.
