C9 There Is No Way out of a Series of Bad Luck
"He beat up the Tongjinmo. The Tong Family won't let him go so easily. It's better if you go back." When the police saw the anxious look on Ruanlee's face, he could only comfort her like this. Indeed, Peichengyan would definitely take his leave during this trip to the Public Security Bureau.
Ruanlee sat on the chair in a daze, not knowing what to do. That day when his father was taken away, the helplessness and incompetence surfaced in his heart once again.
Ruanlee took out his phone, drew out his contact list and started to continuously call his old friends and classmates, gritting his teeth. However, it was either that no one answered him, or he just hung up after hearing her voice.
The continuous combination of disappointment and loss caused Ruanlee's heart to sink straight to the bottom.
But the Ruanlee could not stop. If his own hard work was useless, what should he do about the imprisoned Peichengyan?
Ruanlee bit her nails, the red line of blood appearing in her eyes made her look battered and exhausted. Even so, Ruanlee did not plan to give up, she only wanted Peichengyan to come out quickly.
When Peichengyan walked out, he saw that Ruanlee looked like he was about to collapse. He frowned and came over to her side, and subconsciously held this weak woman in his arms.
"Go back first. I'll be out soon. Don't worry." Peichengyan lowered her head and whispered into her ear. Even though his words sounded extremely safe, she didn't have any confidence in choosing to believe him.
The Tongjiaren made her family go bankrupt, and made her become the wine concubine of this place. She could not believe what that powerless man had said to her, she did not want to lose a single man who was good to her.
Even if the man in front of him wasn't that much related to him, this was his only remaining hope. The reality in front of his eyes however, was that Peichengyan was still locked up.
In the end, the Ruanlee helplessly left. He couldn't do anything about it, he even felt worse about it than when he came.
This kind of emotion was unrelated to love, and at the current stage, it was merely gratitude. Actually, Ruanlee had comforted him this way, but as to what exactly the feelings were, even Ruanlee himself did not know. Furthermore, he did not have the heart to think about these problems, because the key problem now was who could save Peichengyan.
However, something unexpected happened at the other end. Gongangjuzhang arrived in person and emotionally reprimanded his secretary who was following behind him, then quickly had people release Peichengyan. He even personally came to the small house that held Peichengyan, and welcomed them out.
"Peizong, I don't know if it's you, but as a young man who has just graduated, you are still young and inexperienced. If there is anything you need my help with, just say it, I can definitely help you settle it." This Gongangjuzhang who was over a hundred years old laughed and put on a low attitude.
Peichengyan twisted the joints of his neck and exhaled, "Tongjinmo was beaten into the hospital by me. I'll stay in the police station for a few days, and you guys will continue as usual."
Gongangjuzhang was instantly stuck and did not know what the hell he was trying to hide.
"Cooperate with me, detain me for a few days. I don't want to go out yet." The Peichengyan continued.
Gongangjuzhang could only give up, and let the people inside the bureau treat him well, they could not let this Peizong suffer the slightest bit of grievance and injustice.
The cell in Peichengyan felt like a vacation. He did not need to work, but he could still periodically enjoy a life of freedom.
Peichengyan even had the misconception that living in the prison was actually such a comfortable feeling, much better than working outside.
And after thinking about it for a long time, Ruanlee actually went to the hospital alone.
Since the Tongjiaren was pressuring them, they could only ask them to release the Peichengyan. This was her only hope now, even if this hope led to a greater despair.
Tongjinmo's forgiveness was extremely important to her right now. Even if Ruanlee knew that this road was difficult, she still chose to go because as long as Peichengyan was in the prison, she would not be able to rest at ease for a day.
"Pah!" Ruanlee was beaten until she could not stop, the burning pain covering her entire body, she endured the tears in her eyes, and firmly looked at the noble lady standing in front of her, "I came today to apologize."
Ruanlee never thought that in just the first round, the other party would be so ruthless.
Oh, with that wretched look on your face, you've harmed my son and even wanted our forgiveness. Our Tong family will not let you and that damn man of yours off, and we actually beat up our son to such a state. You better pray that he gets better.
Ruanlee's face was pale as she stared at the tip of her feet, allowing the noble lady to point at her head and scold her. She was her mother, and seeing her son like this, she felt extremely terrible.
Ruanlee wanted to retreat, but when he thought about how Peichengyan was still waiting for her, he felt that he shouldn't be scared. Right now, he didn't have the qualifications to retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and go up.
