Deadly Delivery

Chapter 113: God's will

Views:

I used to think that Bai Longfei was just a good fighter, but after seeing him fight to a draw with the Titan under Qiongqi last time, his status in my heart was instantly elevated to a god of war.

With Bai Longfei's attack, no matter how strong Wang Tao was, it would be of no use. I stood aside and watched quietly. In just one minute, Wang Tao's face was bruised and swollen, and he was tied up tightly by Bai Longfei with a rope.

After dealing with Wang Tao, Bai Longfei snatched the half-smoked cigarette from my mouth and said as he smoked it, "What should we do next? Should we ask Officer Yang to come and pick him up or send him directly to the police station?"

I looked at Wang Tao who looked unconvinced and said, "Let Officer Yang come to take the people away. Brother Long, when the time comes, you can tell Officer Yang what happened. I will leave first."

Bai Longfei looked puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Sigh, I really can't figure out Officer Yang. Sometimes he's really nice to me, but sometimes he's hard to figure out. He didn't say a word to me when he left at noon. It's a bit awkward to meet him now. I think it's better to try to meet less often in the future."

As I was talking, I suddenly noticed that Wang Tao was still looking at me with such resentment, so I said to Wang Tao: "Why, you still don't want to admit your mistakes?"

Wang Tao spat at me fiercely and said, "What have I done wrong? These little bastards caused my son to lose his left eye. As a father, what's wrong with me standing up for my son and avenging him? If my son is injured and I choose to endure it, how can I be his father?"

"You still know that you are his father? Have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a father over the years? Do you think that making money for him to spend is good for him? I also grew up as a child. Although my family doesn't have much money, my parents have always been by my side. If I make any mistakes, they will correct and educate me in time. But what about you? Your son chose to play with that group of killers because of lack of education and care. If you listened to your wife at the time and gave up making money to go home to educate your child, your son would never have had this kind of thing happen. If you must blame someone, then blame yourself!"

I really hate Wang Tao for being so stubborn, but what can I do? After all, Wang Tao and I are not related at all. I just said a few words to him, and he didn't seem to take it at all. I could only sigh in my heart what Grandma Feng said to me at the beginning, cause and effect.

I used to think that Buddhist thought was nothing more than Amitabha Buddha, but after experiencing so many things, I discovered that Buddhist thought is actually very profound. Just the concept of cause and effect can take me a lifetime to understand. Everything has a cause and an effect. No matter when I sow the 'cause', I will reap the 'effect' one day in the future. It's just that I cannot predict whether the 'effect' I reap is really what I want.

Bai Longfei had already taken out his phone and dialed Officer Yang's number. He briefly described what had happened on the phone. It seemed that Officer Yang would be here soon, but at this moment, I suddenly heard the elevator door on one side of the corridor slowly open. I thought Officer Yang had moved over instantly, so I turned around and saw that a group of people who looked a little familiar came out of the elevator.

After a quick look, I saw four people coming out of the elevator. The leaders were a middle-aged man and a woman. Judging from their clothes, they should be wealthy. Following behind them were two children in their teens.

This group of people seemed not to have noticed us at all. They walked past us with their heads held high and headed towards the other side of the corridor.

I saw that this group of people didn't seem to be the kind of people who would rent a house here, so I kept staring at them, wanting to see what they were going to do. When the four people walked to the door of Grandma Feng's room, they stopped. The woman among them took out a key and opened Grandma Feng's door.

When I saw this group of people walk into Grandma Feng's house, I remembered where I had seen them. The man and woman leading the group seemed to be the two children I had seen in the family photo in Grandma Feng's bedroom. It seemed that this group of people should be Grandma Feng's children and grandchildren.

Bai Longfei didn't mind the appearance of this group of people, but Wang Tao and I became curious. At Wang Tao's strong request, Bai Longfei and I took him towards Grandma Feng's room.

Before I even reached the door of the room, I heard an extremely annoying woman's voice coming from inside the room: "Why did this old woman die so soon? After she died, I can no longer receive my pension and retirement salary, which means I will lose another income."

Then, another man's voice was also very disdainful and said, "There's nothing we can do. We'd better not tell anyone about this for now. Maybe we can get her pension for a few more years. But it's better if she dies. She must have saved a lot of money over the years. Maybe she's hiding it somewhere. Let's go find it. Whoever finds it first gets it."

"How can that be possible? Am I not her biological child? Whoever finds me will get half!"

When I heard these words coming from inside the house, I felt a buzzing in my head, and a nameless fire burst out, rushing directly to the door of the room and kicking it open.

After the door was opened, everything in the room was in my sight. The room, which had been spotlessly cleaned by Granny Feng and Wang Tao, now looked as if it had been robbed. All the furniture was in a mess, and the floor was littered with miscellaneous items. The whole room seemed unrecognizable to me.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? You have to pay for the damage to the door!"

I looked at the middle-aged man who was speaking and couldn't help but angrily asked, "Are you Granny Feng's children?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

I didn’t see any trace of sadness from these two middle-aged men and women, as if Grandma Feng, who had passed away only half a day ago, was just a passerby to them, not the mother who gave birth to them and raised them.

Just as I was about to rebuke them, Wang Tao, who had been suppressing his anger, immediately said, "How dare you come back? What did you do to Aunt Feng when her husband passed away? Not only did you drive her out of her old house, you also forcibly took away her pension insurance account. Now that Aunt Feng has passed away, you didn't even blink an eye? Are you still human?"

"What's your relationship with that old woman? She's our mother. What does it have to do with you? Besides, she's already dead. Can we bring her back to life just by being sad? And we have the obligation to take back the money my mother left us. It's not your turn as an outsider to interfere!"

Wang Tao was shaking with anger, and I could feel the murderous aura from him again. Perhaps it was because of this murderous aura, coupled with the fact that Wang Tao was tied up, that the two children of Grandma Feng were so scared that they dared not speak.

"Money? Aunt Feng has been making money doing odd jobs these years. The money she earns can't even support her own life. Where does she get the money to leave for you? Let me tell you! If I weren't tied up now, I wouldn't mind sending you two to apologize to Aunt Feng!"

Others may not believe this, but I firmly believe it. According to Wang Tao's temper, he can definitely do this. When Grandma Feng's children heard this, they were shocked at first, and then said with disdain: "Okay, come on, let's see what you can do to us. If we lose a hair, you can wait to support us for the rest of our lives."

I have never seen such a scoundrel, and I never thought that the kind-hearted Grandma Feng would have two such shameless children. Seeing that Wang Tao was about to go crazy, I immediately asked Bai Longfei to take Wang Tao out. Before I left, I turned to the two children of Grandma Feng who were sneering at me and said, "Grandma Feng once told me that karma is cyclical. How you treat Grandma Feng now is how your children will treat you in the future. I think I have seen your future, so take care of yourself."

After saying that, I turned around and left Grandma Feng's room. The middle-aged man and woman behind me did not refute what I said. I had seen from the cold eyes of Grandma Feng's two grandsons that the fate of Grandma Feng's children when they are old will definitely be more miserable than Grandma Feng.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark. I gave the key of my room to Bai Longfei and asked him to pass it to Officer Yang. Then I left the place where I had stayed for two days and prepared to go home to have a good sleep. However, because of Grandma Feng’s matter, I suddenly missed my parents. After a little hesitation, I picked up the phone and called my parents who I hadn’t contacted for a long time.

When I got home, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the lights in my room were still on. It seemed that Zhang Qishan had indeed been at my house these days.

When I was about to knock on the door, I found that it was open. I walked into the room puzzled, and was immediately unable to believe what I saw.

I saw that my room, which used to be like a pigsty, had undergone a tremendous change. The whole room was very clean, and even the cement floor below was polished to a shine.

I turned around and saw that Zhang Qishan had fallen asleep. She had also changed my bed sheets and quilt covers to look brand new and white. It seemed that Zhang Qishan had not been idle during the two days when I was away from home.

Walking to my bedside, looking at Zhang Qishan's beautiful sleeping face, I couldn't help but reach out and touch her face. But as soon as I touched Zhang Qishan, her eyes opened vigilantly. However, when she saw that the person in front of her was me, her vigilant look instantly turned into a smile. She ignored my hand touching her face and smiled, "I was wondering why you didn't call me today. So you are coming back today. How is the case? Is it solved?"

I nodded and said, "Of course. Is there any case that I can't solve? But then again, why don't you close the door when you sleep? Aren't you afraid that bad guys will come in?"

Zhang Qishan was a little surprised and said, "Didn't I close the door? Maybe I forgot, but it doesn't matter, you came back in time, didn't you?"

After Zhang Qishan finished speaking, we both fell silent. I don’t know why, but recently our topics always become silent for no apparent reason. In order to break the awkward silence, I smiled and said, “Didn’t I say before that I would give you a gift when I came back? Look what this is?”

As I said that, I took a large box hidden behind me and brought it to Zhang Qishan. Zhang Qishan immediately opened the box and saw a very small golden retriever inside, sleeping soundly.

"How cute! Is this from you? That's great! Thank you!"

When Zhang Qishan saw this little animal, she couldn't control herself. She immediately took the puppy out of the box and played with it lovingly. However, although she was playing with the puppy, her eyes were always secretly looking at me with a red face. I will never forget this expression.

My hands had already been clenched into fists. I stared at Zhang Qishan and hesitated for three full minutes before I told her what I had always wanted to say to her face.

"Zhang Qishan, be my girlfriend."
