Chapter 220: Road Inspection
She reached out and touched Fanxi's nose. Fanxi seemed to be woken up by her and turned sideways to face her.
Xiao Si quickly pulled her hand back. She was right. She was nothing but a woman who slept with him. How could he possibly be attracted to her and like her? Even if she truly loved him, it was just wishful thinking. He wouldn't accept her at all. Don't be silly.
She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes while carrying Fanxi on her back.
After a while, Fan Xi put on his pants, sat on the stool in front of the dressing table with his upper body naked, and looked at himself in the mirror.
Zhang Fanxi: "Stop pretending to sleep, get up!"
Lin Xiaosi: "Brother, are you awake? Tell me what you like for breakfast and I'll cook it for you. If you don't like what I cook, I'll buy it for you."
Zhang Fanxi: "It's useless. No matter how good you are to me, I can't fall in love with you. Because I have someone in my heart, do you understand? Even if this is your first time, don't think that I will be responsible for you. I only saved you last night because I felt sorry for you. There will be no next time."
Lin Xiaosi nodded: "I know you don't like it. I won't pester you, nor will I expect you to share a little love with me, but can you let me stay by your side to take care of you? Because I really don't want to go back there anymore."
Zhang Fanxi: "Whatever you want."
He opened the drawer on the dressing table and took out a razor, then picked up the lotion next to it, applied a little, and began to shave his stubble.
Lin Xiaosi: "Did you treat the girl you liked this way before?"
Zhang Fanxi stopped shaving halfway. He glanced in the mirror at Lin Xiaosi, who was sitting on the bedside, then turned around and said to her, "I haven't touched her. Every time I wanted to, she always found excuses to push me away. Besides, she has asthma, so I didn't dare do anything to her. But a few months after we separated, she got pregnant with another man and hurriedly got married and had children. Sometimes I really doubt whether she loves me or not. Was I too soft on her back then? If I had been tougher on her and taken advantage of her sooner, maybe she and I wouldn't be at opposite ends of our destinies like we are now. Maybe we would be in our own comfort zone, doing what we love and having one or two children. Such a plain and peaceful life was clearly within our reach before, but now it's so far away. Do you think I'm the stupidest and most idiotic man in the world?"
Lin Xiaosi: "No, what you said actually makes me think you are a good man. You did this not because you are stupid or an idiot, but because you love her too much."
Zhang Fanxi gave a bitter smile: "Yes, I really do love her. Whenever I see her crying or unhappy, my heart softens. When she begs me, my mind becomes confused and I can't do what I think is right."
Lin Xiaosi: "She's married and you still miss her so much, so she must be very beautiful!"
Zhang Fanxi: "Although we never say it and often criticize her, she is indeed very beautiful. But the reason why I can't forget her to this day is because when I was at my lowest point, she was the only one who foolishly stayed by my side and never left me."
Lin Xiaosi: "Then why did you break up in the end?"
Zhang Fanxi: "Because my body betrayed her."
Lin Xiaosi: "Then you must have your own reasons. You have always been so considerate and caring towards her, why can't she forgive you just once?"
Zhang Fanxi: "Sometimes it's really hard to explain love to outsiders."
He turned around and continued shaving, then cursed: "Why is the weather here so hot and humid?"
Lin Xiaosi smiled: "The temperature here is hot and humid all year round. If you plan to stay here for a long time, you must adapt as soon as possible."
Zhang Fanxi looked at the blood-stained long-sleeved shirt on the ground, turned around, got down from the sofa downstairs, found a short-sleeved T-shirt, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Zhang Fanxi returned to the bedroom. Lin Xiaosi also changed into her nightgown and cleaned up the mess left behind last night.
Zhang Fanxi pulled her to sit on the bed.
Zhang Fanxi: "Can you talk to me? I've been so lonely these years."
Lin Xiaosi: "Why are you telling me so much about your past today?"
Zhang Fanxi: "Maybe it's because I think you and I are too similar, both of us fell in love with someone we don't love."
Lin Xiaosi: "As fellow wanderers, we can resonate with each other the most. Even if I can't be your lover, as long as I can be your soulmate and listen to you talk, I will be very satisfied."
Zhang Fanxi: "How did a good girl like you end up in their hands?"
Lin Xiaosi: "I am a girl living in the countryside of Yunnan. My mother was ill at the time, and I had to raise money for her treatment. I didn't know anything about it, so I borrowed 100,000 yuan from them in a hurry. I was deceived by them and came here without knowing what was going on."
Zhang Fanxi: "Your boss not only runs a gambling house but also traffics women."
Lin Xiaosi: "They not only trafficked women, they also opened pornographic venues and forced those girls into prostitution."
Zhang Fanxi: "Besides you, were there other girls deceived here?"
Lin Xiaosi: "Yes, I have been imprisoned with many girls."
Zhang Fanxi took out his phone from his luggage bag and opened Jun Lan's photo to show her: "Have you seen this woman and the child in her arms?"
Lin Xiaosi looked at it very carefully for a while and said, "I haven't seen it before."
Zhang Fanxi took the phone back in disappointment.
Lin Xiaosi: "She must be your sweetheart! She's so beautiful. What's her name? Was she also trafficked to Myanmar?"
Zhang Fanxi: "Her name is Lin Junlan. Even now I don't know where she went!"
Lin Xiaosi: "I understand. I will help you find out the information from the people around you."
He picked up the car keys from the sofa and said, "I have to go to work. If you have anything, we can talk when I get back."
Lin Xiaosi quickly took his leather shoes and watch from the bedroom upstairs and gave them to him.
"Be careful, I'll wait for you at home."
When Fan Xi saw that Xiao Si had calluses on her hands just like his own, and thought of Jun Lan's hands that had never touched water, he couldn't help but think, "Perhaps this woman is the one who is more suitable to have children with him, start a family, and spend the rest of his life with him.
He was halfway through the drive when he realized he didn't know the road. The GPS in the car showed all the information in Burmese. He was stopped by government soldiers up ahead. He shamelessly called Cheng Wanjin and said, "Brother Jin, I don't know the road here!"
There was a burst of laughter over there. After Cheng Wanjin finished laughing, he said, "You were not so bewitched by that woman last night that you lost your way, were you?"
"I'm not kidding, I'm really lost and I'm being questioned by the military."
Suddenly, a soldier pointed a gun at his head and signaled him to get out of the car. He quickly hung up the phone and got out of the car. The soldier chattered a lot at him, but Fan Xi didn't understand a word. He replied: "Can you speak English?"
When the soldier heard that he couldn't speak Burmese, he immediately kicked him in the stomach and hit him hard on the head with the butt of his rifle.
