“You… You… You…”
Director Zheng spat out blood. He was purely enraged.
“Oh, you are vomiting blood. That is extremely dangerous. Didn’t you call an ambulance? Do I need to tell you the phone number of the emergency center?” Jia Zizai was still taking pleasure from the situation.
He had experienced a mindset change. If this was the past, he would have ensured that man could not speak anymore. He might even have wished for him to have tea with God.
“Well, I am not willing to chat with you anymore, bye-bye.”
Jia Zizai got into his car and left. He stepped on the accelerator, causing dust to rise on the road.
The dust flew onto the man lying on the ground.
“You! I will take revenge! You will see!” Director Zheng shouted.
“Where is my cellphone?” When he went to call an ambulance, he couldn’t find his cellphone.
Damn it! Where is it?
He groped around, enduring the stabbing pain and dizziness, but could not find his cellphone.
“Hey, what is this? Why is there a cellphone?” As Jia Zizai was driving, he found a cellphone. He glanced at it, rolled down the window, and threw it into the river north by the road.
With a bang, the water splashed. The cellphone sank into the river.
Jia Zizai stopped the car and thought, Oh, that will pollute the environment.
Forget it, it can’t be found now. It will be alright as long as I pay attention to it in the future.
After thinking for a moment, he stepped on the accelerator and drove off.
Director Zheng had no choice but to endure the pain and seek help. He wanted to go to a nearby village to find someone to help him. Fortunately, his luck was pretty good. He saw an oncoming car. He reached out to wave the car down, but the driver accelerated and sped past him.
“Why are you going so fast?”
“Didn’t you see that person? But what if he is a fraud? Who knows?”
They soon came upon the crashed car.
“There was a car accident. Did he want to ask us for help?”
“What about going back to see him? Let us go back. This is a BMW Seven. The person who owns such a car must be rich.”
“No, let’s go. There’s still something to be done at home!”
“F*ck, are these people all blind?” Director Zheng slowly grinned.
A noisy tractor was approaching from the distance.
“Uncle! Uncle!”
“What is it?” the old man kindly asked as he looked at the ragged man.
“Uncle, do you have a cellphone?”
“What machine are you talking about?”
“A phone! A phone!” Director Zheng shouted.
“What is it?”
“I…” Director Zheng sat on the ground.
There was a villain who just left, and then some strange people went by. Why am I so unlucky today? Did I forget to read the lunar calendar before going out?
I have never suffered like this! Never!
As Director Zheng thought, tears began to fall down his cheeks.
The old man stopped the tractor. He walked toward him and asked, “You are an adult male in your 40s, so why are you crying? What happened to you?”
“Why are you crying? Did your business go bankrupt, or did your wife dump you and go away?”
“Uncle, if you were not so old, I would want to beat you!” Director Zheng was stifling his anger after hearing those words. He felt that he would die from being furious.
“Well, I am kindly talking to you, but you want to hit me! You are an ungrateful boy!”
“Hey, Uncle, you’re not deaf this time.” Director Zheng was stunned.
“Do you want to be hit? Who said that I am deaf?” The old man was unhappy.
“You will deserve it if you have an accident!” He got on the tractor. The noisy tractor slowly started to drive off.
“No, Uncle! Uncle!”
The old man spat toward him.
“Aye!”
Cough! Director Zheng coughed up blood again.
“I want to kill myself today!”
He hadn’t had such bad luck since he was born.
“I shouldn’t have come to this mountain village. I shouldn’t have seen that damn Dr. Wang.” Director Zheng crouched beside the road, murmuring to himself while he cried.
If I hadn’t come here, I wouldn’t have encountered such a mess. Damn it!
All of this is because of that man’s bad idea. He will be fired after I go back! He blamed everyone else for the unpleasant things happening to him. He didn’t think about any of the actions he had taken that had influenced the outcome.
With a creaking sound, a car stopped nearby.
Is somebody coming?
He looked up and saw the face he had recently become to hate.
“Why are you still here? Is there no ambulance willing to come to help you?”
“It is you again!”
“Hey, what are you talking about? Are you stupid? I’ll give you a chance to reorganize your language. What did you just say?”
Director Zheng chose to shut up.
I can’t afford the risk, but I can hide from it.
He didn’t speak. He sat beside the road and stared at the ground.
“Why don’t you talk? Why don’t you call an ambulance? Don’t know the emergency phone number? My god!”
Grunting and hissing, Director Zheng took a deep breath.
He fumbled around in his pocket for a long time. He finally found a pack of cigarettes. He took one out and lit it.
“This is a foolish man. I can’t argue with him. This is a foolish man. I can’t argue with him,” Director Zheng murmured.
“What are you mumbling? Are you stupid? Go to the hospital and don’t become neurotic or demented!”
“You have a neurosis! Your whole family has neurosis!”
“Oh, what a pity. Let’s go!”
With a roar, the car drove off.
“God, why don’t you take such a person away?” Director Zheng shouted. “You let such a disgusting person live in the world!”
Ha-ha. Jia Zizai, who was sitting in the car, suddenly laughed. He was in a great mood.
He grinned and went home.
“What happened to make you so happy?” Hu Mei asked.
“I met a very interesting person today,” Jia Zizai said with a smile.
“Really? Where at?”
“In the village. Oops, I’m so happy!”
Hu Mei stared at him for a while.
“What’s wrong?”
“Did you get yourself into trouble again?”
“How is that possible?” Jia Zizai asked. “Why would I get myself into trouble? It is alright as long as no one makes me angry.”
“Come on, I bought mutton, fish, and lamb,” Hu Mei said. “What is Mr. Wang’s favorite food? Do you know?”
“I don’t know, just make a few more dishes,” Jia Zizai replied.
“OK, why don’t you help you?”
The two began to prepare a hearty dinner.
On the road outside the village, Director Zheng was finally able to call for a rescue vehicle and left.
“I will be back, and I will make you regret it!”
Seeing Director Zheng’s expression, the medical staff thought, What a tragic experience this person has experienced here. It was so expressive.
Is this the vengeance of killing his father, or the hatred of stealing a wife?
Since winter was coming, the daytime was shorter. By 5:30 p.m., the sky was dark.
In Jia Zizai’s home, he and his wife prepared a large meal.
“This is too rich,” Wang Yao said.
“Hey, it’s not too bad, Sir,” Jia Zizai said.
“What about having a drink?” Wang Yao laughed. He had nothing going on that night anyway.
The wind was blowing outside. It was very cold. The room was warm since several people were gathered around the table. They talked and laughed. It was a lively dinner.
It after 8:30 p.m. when the guests left.
Wang Yao went home and talked to his parents. He gave them each a massage, which relaxed them to their bones, before heading to Nanshan Hill.
Ring! Hum!
His phone rang when he was halfway up the wall. It was Su Xiaoxue calling.
“Where are you?”
“On the way to Nanshan. Are you at home?”
“Yeah, I am in my room. I just took a shower,” Su Xiaoxue said.
“Are you still busy with your lessons?”
“It is much better,” Su Xiaoxue said.
“It’s quite cold over there. Keep warm and wear more clothes.”
“I know,” Su Xiaoxue said. “In fact, I don’t feel cold since you have taught me the method of inducing Qi. As a result, neixi flows in my body. Even if I only wear a single shirt, I don’t feel cold.”
“Well, you still need to wear more clothes.”
Wang Yao had taught Su Xiaoxue the method of inducing Qi, which was more profound than what he had given Zhong Liuchuan, Jia Zizai, and Hu Mei. Su Xiaoxue’s talent was high. She had successfully practiced with the help of only a few words from him. It was something Wang Yao did not expect.
