Chen Yuanyuan...
Su Tong's heart clenched with pain, and he quickly jumped off the ridge: "Comrade Chen Yuanyuan? What are you doing here?!"
Ever since Su Tong went to take the exam with Su Ruyi and saw Chen Yuanyuan for the first time, his heart was captivated by her.
That was the most innocent and sunny smile he had ever seen on any of the Su family members.
He didn't dare look at her at that moment.
Because he had a heart condition, he felt as inferior as the mud beneath her feet.
Unexpectedly, Sixth Sister made a deal with her—she would provide the information, and Sixth Sister would go to take the exam with her, making money together.
She agreed.
Later, after Sixth Sister went to the countryside, Chen Yuanyuan indeed found her and said she had inside information.
She took him to take the test four times. One of the tests was very difficult, and they were only hiring one person. He only got second place.
The two met four times and split the three thousand seven hundred yuan equally.
Later, she said it was her birthday and invited her friends to her house for dinner.
He went, and brought a book as a gift.
He will never forget that day.
He never mentioned what happened that day to anyone, including his sixth sister.
For Chen Yuanyuan's birthday, she invited her classmates and friends, about ten people in total.
Su Tong only knew Wu Lili.
Wu Lili was in charge of cooking. Su Tong didn't know the others, and Chen Yuanyuan was being talked to by several people, so he went to the kitchen to help out.
All the dishes were served, and everyone was raising their glasses.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man unlocked the door with a key and walked in.
When Su Tong saw him, he felt as if the blood in his body had frozen.
Because that man was none other than Chen Weixing, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative who was going to marry his sixth sister!
Then, he watched as Chen Yuanyuan smiled at the man with a slightly coquettish tone, "Dad, you've come at just the right time! We were just about to start eating!"
Chen Weixing walked over, picked up a glass of red wine, and said to everyone, "I know you young people are annoyed by this old man, so I won't join in! Come on, everyone, raise your glasses and let's wish Yuanyuan happiness every day, okay?"
Everyone raised their glasses: "Happy every day!"
They clinked glasses, splashed red wine, and laughed and chatted.
Only Su Tong stood there stiffly.
People noticed his unusual behavior.
Chen Yuanyuan looked over curiously.
Su Tong's face turned pale, and he turned his gaze to Chen Yuanyuan: "He's your father?!"
No one had ever told him that Chen Yuanyuan's father was Chen Weixing, not even his sixth sister.
Chen Yuanyuan nodded: "Yes!"
Chen Weixing also looked over. He felt that Su Tong looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Su Tong put down his wine glass: "I'm not feeling well, I'll take my leave now!"
After saying that, he fled the birthday party in a manner that was almost like a runaway.
After that, Su Tong never saw Chen Yuanyuan again.
Chen Yuanyuan came to the food factory to look for him three times, and the third time she waited for more than an hour.
He didn't come out.
...
This is what it was like when I saw Chen Yuanyuan again.
He stood on the edge of the field, impeccably dressed.
She lay on the edge of the field, covered in dirt.
Su Tong jumped off the ridge and was about to help Chen Yuanyuan up.
Unexpectedly, she immediately cried out in pain, "My back hurts so much, I can't move."
"What did you say?! What exactly happened?" Su Tong's hair stood on end.
“My dad has been sentenced to prison. I came to get some things from one of his friends, he…” Chen Yuanyuan said, then pursed her lips.
"Yuanyuan, wait a minute! I'll go hire an oxcart right away and take you to Haicheng People's Hospital!" Su Tong said, about to leave.
Chen Yuanyuan grabbed him: "Don't hire the oxcart from Sujiazhuang! They're all in cahoots!"
Su Tong nodded, climbed onto the ridge, and ran quickly toward the neighboring Qianjia'ao.
Twenty minutes later, an oxcart covered with a sunshade and lined with quilts arrived in front of Chen Yuanyuan.
The driver helped Su Tong lift Chen Yuanyuan onto the cart.
During the process of moving her, Su Tong discovered that Chen Yuanyuan's lower body was completely weak, limp like a noodle.
His heart sank to the bottom of a deep valley.
Sure enough, after arriving at Haicheng People's Hospital and undergoing examination, the doctor concluded that Chen Yuanyuan was paralyzed.
Along the way, Su Tong also learned the reason for Chen Yuanyuan's paralysis.
After sending Wu Lili to work in the countryside in Heilongjiang Province, Chen Yuanyuan went to the police station again and was finally told that she could meet her father.
This was the first time the father and daughter had met since the father's accident a week ago.
Chen Weixing was wearing handcuffs.
He lost a lot of weight; in just seven days, he looked seven years older, and the hair at his temples had turned completely white.
The moment he saw Chen Yuanyuan, his eyes immediately welled up with tears: "Yuanyuan! They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?"
Chen Yuanyuan covered her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud and shook her head desperately.
The police had just warned her not to make any noise, or the meeting would be terminated immediately.
"Yuanyuan, what about Yaozong? How is he?" With limited time, Chen Weixing didn't dwell on his sadness and asked anxiously.
“His aunt took him away.” Chen Yuanyuan knew that time was of the essence, so she lowered her voice. “Our house was ransacked. The things you put behind Mom’s portrait were all taken by the people who ransacked the house, but I guess they didn’t report it and divided them up among themselves.”
Chen Weixing nodded, as if he had expected it: "Do you still have any money on you? Is your home still safe to stay in?"
“The house has been taken away. I originally had two thousand yuan on me. Wu Lili went to the countryside, so I gave her one thousand yuan. I still have one thousand yuan left,” Chen Yuanyuan answered truthfully.
Chen Weixing paused for a moment, then lowered his voice: "Yuanyuan, remember what Dad's about to say—Dad has a brother who's been through thick and thin with me, and he's also my downstream client! Over the years, he's made nearly two hundred thousand yuan from me. We made an agreement that if one of us gets into trouble, the other has to take care of his family. Dad also has a lot of money deposited with him, totaling about ten thousand yuan. Go find him and ask him to use that money to help bribe people and get me out! His address is… Our agreed-upon code is…"
Chen Weixing carefully and repeatedly told Chen Yuanyuan the address and code three times until she memorized them completely.
Soon, it was visiting time.
As Chen Weixing was being taken away, he gave Chen Yuanyuan a big smile in front of the police: "Yuanyuan, forget about your father, live a good life! Choose your partner carefully and marry a good man! Your Uncle Gao will help you!"
As soon as Chen Yuanyuan left the police station, she immediately wrote down the address of the person whose father called her "Brother Gao San".
At that time, she had no doubt that this Uncle Gao could save her father, and would save her father.
The next day, she took the address and went to Sujiazhuang.
However, Gao Sange was not at home.
His second brother, Gao Erge, a man with shifty eyes, picked his teeth while looking Chen Yuanyuan up and down: "Third brother is coming back tomorrow. Why don't you stay the night and wait for him, girl?"
