With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate
Chapter 675: Kind FatherOutside the house where Duan Li used to live, Duan Mu, a grown man, squatted against the wall and sobbed.
As a middle-aged man experiencing such a thing, his mind seemed to be much clearer for a while. It was precisely because of his clarity that he realized what he had missed.
The homeowner heard some noise outside and saw through the peephole a man with red and swollen eyes from crying. He frowned, and didn't go out because he didn't want to get into trouble.
Suddenly, she heard the man shout "Mom".
She knew something about the previous owner and shook her head gently. If she had known this, why did she do it in the first place? Sister Li was really sad to live abroad, otherwise she would not have kept the house until three years ago to sell it.
Duan Mu didn't know when he left or where he went.
The homeowner only knew that when she took out the garbage in the afternoon, she was no longer there. She didn't have Duan Li's overseas phone number, which was a good thing, because otherwise it would be difficult to do. She didn't know whether she should call.
"I'll lend you 100,000 yuan." Wei Yue thought for a moment and said, "If it's more, my wife will probably quarrel with me."
Thinking of this, Wei Yue felt a bit of a headache. One hundred thousand was not a small amount, and her husband would be unhappy if he knew about it. But it was Duan Mu who borrowed the money, and she couldn't just turn around and leave without any mercy.
Duan Mu's appearance at this moment was really scary. People who have nothing don't have to worry about anything.
"One hundred thousand may not be enough." Duan Mu's eyes were dim. When one loses the best things, many things become clearer, but people are unwilling to blame themselves and like to put the blame on others.
For example, Duan Mu now feels that if it weren't for Wei Yue, he and his mother would never see each other again. He doesn't even know where the other person has gone, how can he find her?It’s all because of Wei Yue!
His fierce look startled Wei Yue and made her defensive.
Duan Mu is going crazy!But what does this have to do with her? Is it really her fault that the other party is in this situation?
She admitted that she had indeed robbed Ran Jue's father because she wanted desperately to hold on to someone who was like her father.
But she had already suffered retribution for that incident. Her reputation was gone, and her adoptive father's home was no longer warm. It was even a stone weighing on her heart. Now that she was working, she not only had to take care of the family, but also provide for her adoptive father in his old age, because since she started working, her adoptive father had started to spend all his money on the orphanage without any scruples.
Was his adoptive father really just being kind? She didn't know, and she didn't quite understand.
As the children in the orphanage grow up, how many of them can remember the good things about their adoptive father? They use work as an excuse and rarely go back to their old place, let alone visit their adoptive father or even call him. She was even sent a private message by someone, which showed a screenshot of two grown-up children in a small group in the orphanage. They mentioned their regrets when they were young, saying that they had talents but unfortunately they were not developed, otherwise they would not be able to move bricks like they are now.
They didn't mention their adoptive father, but their words were full of complaints.
As for Duan Mu, she didn't think that Duan Mu's fate was caused by her.
Take Duan Li for example. She had advised Duan Mu countless times to go back and reconcile, but Duan Mu himself was unwilling to do so.
There were also some messy things that she never asked Duan Mu to do. He did them based on his own understanding.
Ran Qie can dislike her and hate her, but Duan Mu shouldn't.
Besides, she had helped Duan Mu a lot when he was down and out over the years.
Even if they are friends, who would agree to lend someone 100,000 yuan right away?
"Then how much do you want to borrow?" Wei Yue asked, intending to calm the man down first. "I can only take out this much at the moment. You can get treatment first, and when you need more follow-up, I will find a way for you. Is that okay?"
Duan Mu glanced at her and said, "Okay, but don't forget that I'm alone now. Apart from you, I don't know who to turn to. I'm afraid I won't be able to figure it out."
"Qinqin and Lele haven't finished school yet?" he asked suddenly.
Wei Yue's pupils suddenly shrank. Threat!
He was threatening her. If she didn't obey, he would do something to her two children. Wei Yue grabbed the sofa tightly, but she couldn't be angry and accuse him. She lowered her eyes slightly, and there was bitterness in her eyes. Was it retribution?Is this retribution?
She didn't have the courage to risk everything, so she could only compromise.
Her husband has a hot temper, and she can't even tell him the truth, otherwise... he will definitely have a conflict with Duan Mu, and then who knows what will happen.
How did her life become like this?"I won't ignore you." Wei Yue finally said, "After all, we are friends."
Duan Mu was satisfied and left after getting the 100,000 yuan.
Wei Yue did think about calling the police for extortion, but then he thought about how scary Duan Mu was and was afraid that he would do something desperate, so he gave up the idea.
The days that followed were indeed chaotic, and the conflict between her and her husband became increasingly serious.
Until the husband realized something was wrong and called the police.
In fact, Duan Mu's arrogance has its limits. When he was arrested by the police, he was the first to back down.
Even so, the rift between Wei Yue and her husband still remained, but they did not divorce.
After being imprisoned, his former part-time employer came to see Duan Mu and told him that it was actually Duan Li who was able to find such a good part-time job. Duan Mu burst into tears and wanted his employer to help him contact her, but she refused. "There are two talented children in the orphanage. As long as they are well trained, they will definitely achieve success in the future." At the dinner table, Ran Zhengfeng said excitedly. For some reason, he had a special obsession in this regard, as if he should train a few nationally renowned artists.
Wei Yue just listened and didn't respond.
All she could control was Ran Zhengfeng's food and drink. It was up to him to do whatever he wanted with his own money. This was her adoptive father whom she had robbed, and she had brought this upon herself.
"But the conditions here are still a bit poor," Ran Zhengfeng said, "I heard that you have a very good teacher in this field. It's better to find a teacher to learn this. I'll pay for the tuition, but it's hard to find a place to live, and they are all children who need someone to take care of them. Yueyue, your house is spacious, and they are about the same age as Qinqin and Lele. They can have a companion. Why don't you let them live in your house temporarily? What do you think?"
Wei Yue raised her head suddenly and refused without thinking: "No."
Ran Zhengfeng paused, "A child can't eat much."
"That's not what I meant. Anyway, no."
Wei Yue couldn't eat anymore. After arguing for a while, Ran Zhengfeng suddenly said, "Why have you become so selfish?"
Wei Yue's eyes suddenly turned red. Is she selfish?
She is selfish?She didn't argue anymore, but she wouldn't agree to that kind of thing, so she got up and left.
It seemed like there was really no way to maintain the appearance. He should come back less often in the future. Even if he was called an ungrateful person, so what? She would still give him the pension. He could do whatever he wanted.
At this moment, she finally understood the situation that Ran Qi and Teacher Zhuo had been in back then. It was so painful.
A'li felt a little strange about Wei Yue's sudden visit, but he still went to see him.
As soon as she saw the person, she knew what was going on.
"Ran Qi, I'm sorry."
"I'm really sorry." She actually understood a lot of things, but she just didn't want to give up. Only when she experienced the bitterness of it, did she know how hateful it was.
"I can't forgive you." Ah Qi leaned on the sofa and said this. She was not the client, so she couldn't forgive Wei Yue. It didn't seem surprising that Wei Yue could come, after all, the other party was quite smart.
Wei Yue raised her head slightly, and was not disappointed after hearing this: "I know, but I should say sorry."
Even if I won't be forgiven.
After watching Wei Yue leave, A'qi went to find Li Feiwei with a cup of coffee. Her junior was working hard for the upcoming vacation, so she went to check on him.
Later, when Zhuo Qiaoqing and Yun Xin came back from their trip, Wei Yue also came to apologize.
Zhuo Qiaoqing said: "Actually, the main reason is Ran Zhengfeng, but I won't forgive you either."
Wei Yue left with a wry smile.
Later, Ran Zhengfeng still failed to cultivate a so-called nationally renowned artist. He muttered to himself in the deserted room, "This shouldn't be the case. This shouldn't be the case. Those children are all talented. This shouldn't be the case."
He helped so many children, why didn't they come back to see him?Ungrateful wolves, all of them are ungrateful wolves!
Later, when Ran Zhengfeng grew old, he would lament to everyone he met that he had helped a group of ungrateful people.
When some of the children from the orphanage who had come back to see him heard this, they all smiled bitterly. Maybe there were some ungrateful people, but they really weren't. If they were to get closer to Uncle Ran, he would make a request that made them feel awkward. They all had their own families, and if they really wanted to support those children to learn art, their own families would have to break up.
Later, someone heard about this and wanted to invite Ran Zhengfeng to a show, but he scolded and drove him away. The person seemed a little angry, so he wrote an article saying that Ran Zhengfeng supported the ungrateful people in the orphanage.
It is conceivable that the person who was ridiculed the most in the end was Ran Zhengfeng, simply because the evidence of what happened back then was all there, and because Asui and Li Feiwei were so famous.
When Li Jingming's death was approaching, Li Feiwei learned the news and took Aqi to meet him abroad.
"Father!" Li Feiwei smiled with his eyes. His gray hair made him look kind, but he looked so proud as if he had returned to his youth. "You lost. Look, my senior sister has always been by my side." He held Ah Qi's hand like a proud peacock. "She is willing to accompany me for the rest of my life."
Li Jingming laughed angrily, almost getting angry to death: "Is this why you have always asked the top medical team to help me take care of my body?"
"Yes, father, if he had lived longer, he would have seen me and my senior sister loving each other." Li Fei said proudly, "Father, you have never been loved by anyone, so you don't understand how it feels."
Ah Qi shook her head slightly. Was he really here to see Li Jingming off? But she had no intention of stopping him.
Li Jingming closed his eyes and stopped talking. He really had no strength left, this damn wolf cub.
He opened his eyes again and looked at A'rui, as if asking, can you bear this?
"You don't understand." A-Qi said, "He deserves my love."
Li Feiwei smiled brightly: "Father, my senior sister likes me! You don't understand love! Are you so envious that you can't speak now? It's really pitiful that no one loves you until you die." (End of this chapter)
