Chapter 116
Chapter 116
After leaving the coffee shop, Bai Yan was not as free and easy as he imagined.
On the one hand, he felt that he was not cruel enough, he should scold Bai Menghua severely before leaving.On the one hand, he felt that he was a little unfeeling, and he was indifferent when he saw his bloody hand, and he didn't give him the last penny.He hates himself who hesitates like this, which is no different from the Zhang Xuan he hated before.
He undoubtedly hated Bai Menghua, hated it so much that he would never forget it in his life, hated it so much that he couldn't get along well with the role of "father" even when he was filming.But now when he closes his eyes, there are blood blisters on the palm of his hand, and deep lines covered with black mud.
"Yanyan, Yanyan?"
The soft call pulled him out of his contemplation, he regained his senses, looked at Lu Zhihui on the opposite side of the platter, "ah, what's wrong?"
"Are you thinking about something?"
"Oh, no, I lost my mind all of a sudden."
He turned his attention to the things in his hands. In the past two days, he bought a large jigsaw puzzle with [-] pieces. After dinner, the two of them would put together while looking at the stars.The person who was still looking at the instruction manual with great fighting spirit last night, but today he was in a daze for a few minutes.The first few times Lu Zhihui didn't remind him, he just watched it. On the fourth time, he lost his mind while pinching the fragments again, and Lu Zhihui finally asked.
"Thinking about the script?" Lu Zhihui asked again.
Of course, Bai Yan wanted to seize this excuse that came out of nowhere, "Yes, I've been resting for two months, and I haven't decided on a new script yet."
Lu Zhihui withdrew his gaze from looking at him, and continued to deal with the pieces on the platter. It seemed that he had turned his attention, but in fact he took Bai Yan's absent-minded state into his heart.
"Choose the script slowly, don't be in a hurry. In addition to choosing the script, you also need to look at the production team, and go to Shi Rui's side to pass the test before signing the contract."
"For sure, Sister Rui has always had a good eye, and she can't make mistakes."
Bai Yan coped with his words and continued to answer, then picked up the instruction manual and searched for the pieces one by one, but slowed down after Lu Zhihui didn't speak, and in three to five minutes, he held two pieces with subtle differences as before Daze.So dazed that his eyes were empty, without even blinking, Lu Zhihui knew that the little leopard's current state was different from the stunned one last night, and he obviously had something on his mind.
Moreover, he planned to hide it from him.
The second time Bai Menghua appeared was three days later, and he directly knocked on the door of their cohabitation apartment.At that time, Bai Yan hadn't come back after rushing the notice, and the only one at home was Lu Zhihui who came back early to cook fish.Bai Menghua bought a whole outfit, washed the black mud off his hands, and treated his hair with pomade, making him look much younger than before.In addition to the crisp gray suit, he also matched a solid color tie, which was not as shabby as before.It's just that the dirty white sneakers under his feet look out of place with this outfit, and it's not difficult for people to see that the suit is not his own.
"Son-in-law Lu, hello!"
"You are?" Lu Zhihui was stunned for a moment, and then recalled a photo of a member of Bai Yan's family that Wu Qi had given him before, and the doubt in his eyes disappeared, "Hi, uncle."
Bai Menghua was surprised by his reaction, and praised him, "Son-in-law Lu really has good eyesight, you know me even if you haven't met me before." He said and looked inside the door, "Why? I'm not welcome?"
Lu Zhihui never neglected others in terms of etiquette, so he let go of the doorknob, "Of course not, please come in."
"It is said that son-in-law Lu is generous, stable, and very polite. It seems that the rumors are true." Bai Menghua stepped into the entrance with his hands behind his back, and swaggered and sat down on a sofa.
Lu Zhihui closed the door, "My husband hasn't come back yet, uncle may have to wait for a while, do you want tea or coffee?"
"Tea, I only drink Maojian, I don't want anything else. It doesn't matter if Junjun doesn't come back, I'm here to find you."
Lu Zhihui looked him up and down calmly, probably guessing the intention of the other party's visit, so he curled his lips, "Okay, wait a minute."
He skillfully plated the fish in the pot and put them in the warming cabinet.His brain was running fast, recalling Bai Yan's ecstasy for the past two days, he probably figured out the reason.It seems that Bai Yan hasn't figured out a countermeasure yet, but since everyone has come to him, no matter what Bai Menghua is here for, he should ask a few questions.So he took off his apron, and when he stepped into the living room, his face was serious like that on the negotiating table.
Bai Menghua obviously came here after being fully prepared. As soon as Lu Zhihui sat down, he started his opening remarks without taking a second's rest.
"I went to Junjun two days ago, and he must have mentioned it to you. I have been in prison for 20 years, and I am unaccompanied when I come out. I don't even have a place to live. It's uncomfortable! I think, I Since I have lived alone for 20 years, I will definitely not be able to live alone for the rest of my life. So, I have gone through a lot of hardships and 81 hardships to find Junjun, and I want to recognize my father and son , live with him. But this kid has too much self-esteem, and thinks that if your Lu family knows that I have been in prison, they will definitely look down on him. So they rejected me. I have no choice but to come in person I'm looking for you."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved it around, as if he wanted to point out the country.Lu Zhihui didn't fully believe what he said, and he still had an air of innocence on his face. Even Bai Menghua, who was over fifty years old, couldn't persuade him.
"It seems that my uncle has a good network over the years. After he was released from prison, he was able to find my husband and our address."
"Of course." Bai Menghua has a strong sense of vanity, and he will climb up the pole whenever he hears flattery. "I think I was in our area back then, and everyone responded. It's the same when I come out now, even passers-by." Everyone is rushing to—”
Halfway through the speech, he felt that something was wrong again, although all the inmates in the prison were straight-hearted, and they would directly fist up if they couldn't understand it.But he still lived for more than [-] years before he was imprisoned, so he also noticed that there was something in Lu Zhihui's words, so he hurriedly changed the topic.
"Here, does the emperor pay off? What's more, Junjun is so famous now, isn't it easy to find him?"
Lu Zhihui pursed his lips and helped him refill his teacup, "You call him Junjun?"
"Yes. Oh, he changed his name now, right? I couldn't react for a while. You said that I gave him this name. It has been called for more than 20 years, and it didn't happen overnight, right? "
Lu Zhihui nodded, "It's not easy. Besides, my uncle has good eyesight. My husband was only five years old when you entered, and now he looks different from when he was a child. You can still recognize him."
Bai Menghua knew that there were loopholes in his words, and he was not afraid to confess, so he licked his molars, let out a sigh of relief, and said truthfully:
"Son-in-law Lu, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth—my hometown is in S province. Junjun and his mother and son hadn't left when I was imprisoned. After I was released from prison, I had no contact with him. I found this place all at once. It is indeed impossible. I was actually released from prison last year. I performed well in the prison and was released a year in advance. I went back to my hometown, and everyone treated me like a dog and refused to talk to me. There is still a Nephew, he was kind, and told me that when Junjun left, he mentioned to him that he was coming to City A, so I came. It was June last year, if I remember correctly, it should be June. I passed a street , I heard a person knocking on the door in front of a coffee shop, called 'Xiaoguang' and 'Xiaoguang'. I was curious, so I went over to take a look."
Lu Zhihui understood - it was the time when Dong Weiguang suffered from appendicitis. Bai Yan thought he was kidnapped by Dayu, so he was so frightened that his voice was still trembling when he called him.
Bai Menghua frowned, as if the scene that day hurt him, his eyes suddenly became lonely.
"You are right. 20 years have passed, the child has grown, and the appearance has changed, but the eyes will not change. That night, when the lights were dim, I saw Junjun slamming on the glass door hard. This I have seen the scene. At that time, at that time, my case was still in trial, before the trial. The first trial was over, and I was sentenced to 15 years in the first trial, and I was waiting for the second trial. I was escorted back to the police car after I left the court , to go back to the detention center. At that time, everyone left, the court was clean, and the door was closed. Junjun stood alone at the door, raised his head, and knocked on the door vigorously just like that day. I kept yelling, 'Daddy', 'Daddy', patted, yelled, yelled and cried, and my mother wasn't there at the time, I wanted to go out and hug him, but the police wouldn't let me."
Having said that, he suddenly choked up, raised his eyebrows helplessly, and held back his tears.After a while, he sighed again:
"5 year old doll"
A 5-year-old doll shouldn't suffer like this.
A man does not shed tears lightly, let alone Bai Menghua who held his head up high and was ready to negotiate with him.
Lu Zhihui's eyebrows loosened, "The bodyguard said that he saw a man's back flashing past that day, is it you?"
Bai Menghua nodded, "I saw that there were so many of you, so I left. I actually didn't want to come to Junjun, but a while ago, I was sick, and the doctor told me what kind of infection it was, and it would cost more than 3 yuan. It was too expensive, so I bought some medicine myself, and the pain was almost gone. Then I thought, if I die one day, or if I am killed by some homeless man, I will be alone, and even the person who collects the body will be alone. No, it's too worthless. What's more, my son is a big star now, why do you think I should commit that crime, right?"
"So, uncle is here today?"
As soon as the purpose of this trip was mentioned, Bai Menghua's eyes lit up, and he moved his upper body forward, "Good son-in-law, I think so. Junjun doesn't want to see me, that's okay. I'm sorry for him as a father, I shouldn't ask him to serve me until I die. But you see, I don't have any skills, if I don't have money, this person, this, I will be very difficult, right?"
For things that can be solved with money, Lu Zhihui has always been more generous, "Uncle, how much alimony is more appropriate?"
Bai Menghua remembered the suggestion of the "good-looking passer-by" last night, felt a bit apprehensive, glanced at Lu Zhihui's calm eyes, and felt that the number was not impossible, so he gritted his teeth and said with a smile:
"One hundred million."
Seeing that Lu Zhihui didn't refuse immediately, he thought there was something to be said:
"Don't worry, I will leave as soon as I get the money, but you have to give me 100 million in cash first, so I have to take it with me, and I can't put it all in the card, otherwise you will freeze the card here, and I will take it for nothing." The basket was empty after fetching water, right? Also, you can’t let Junjun know about this, or he will trouble me, I can’t tell!”
After he finished speaking, Bai Yan, who didn't know when to go home, rushed up immediately:
"Let's not talk about RMB, it's impossible to give you Vietnamese Dong!"

Lao Mu has been a bit serious recently, and the speed of coding It's almost zero. I can't do double updates a day to help everyone jump.
