“Shengsheng, where are you?”
“I’m at school. What’s the matter?”
“Yes.” The director sounded a little troubled.”Our crew is having dinner together tonight. The investor specifically asked you to come with us, so we couldn’t reject you.”
From an outsider’s point of view, the director was the boss of the crew, but only the director himself knew that the investor was the real father.
The investors said that they would cut off the funds, and the crew would immediately be paralyzed.
Having been in the entertainment industry for a long time, the director could immediately guess the meaning of the next sentence when the investors said one sentence. Just like this time, when they asked Mu Sheng to accompany them for dinner, the director knew that it was another trap, but he had no choice.
The crew’s progress had just reached a critical moment, and they needed a lot of funds. If they didn’t serve the investors happily, the hard work of the entire crew would probably be in vain.
The hesitation in the director’s tone was so obvious that Mu Sheng could sense that something was wrong, but she did not refuse.”I understand. Give me a seat and I’ll go over tonight.”
The director gave them the location of a restaurant. He was probably worried, so he reminded Mu Sheng,”be more alert at the table. We’ll be there too. I’ll find an excuse to take you all away after dinner. Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”
“Alright, thank you, director.”
After hanging up the call with the director, Mu Sheng saw that it was still early, so he walked slowly along the street.
Imperial University’s campus had a long history, and there were some long-established alleys next to it.
The afternoon sun was warm, and the breeze gently ruffled the leaves, rubbing away the fine rays of sunlight.
The alley was very quiet, with only the sound of the wind blowing.
Mu Sheng walked slowly and turned a corner. Suddenly, he saw an old man sitting at the door and moaning in pain.
Mu Sheng walked over to take a look. The old man’s leg joint was swollen and deformed quite badly. It was obvious that he had been suffering from rheumatism for many years.
The old man seemed to have heard the sound of someone approaching. He looked up, but his eyes could not see the person clearly. He could only vaguely see a figure.”Little girl, are you lost?” This alley is very complicated. I’ll teach you how to get out. ”
As he spoke, the old man picked up his walking stick and stood up to show Mu Sheng the way.
Mu Sheng stopped him and stretched out her hand to pinch the old man’s leg joint.”You’ve been sick for a long time, right?”
“Yup,” The old man sighed, but at the same time, a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.”When I was young, I was in the Army. During the war, I had to soak in The Mud Day and night. When I got old, my leg couldn’t take it anymore.”
“You were a soldier?”
Speaking of this, the old man’s spirits were high. Perhaps it was because he had not found someone to listen to for a long time, the old man held Mu Sheng’s hand and told him for a long time.
It was also from the old man’s story that Mu Sheng found out that the injuries on his body and his almost blind eyes were all left behind by the war.
“Let me take a look at your injury.”
“I’m fine. It’s an old injury. I’ve seen many doctors, but rheumatism can’t be cured. I’ll drag it on as long as I can.”
“Do you mind if I give you some acupuncture?” Mu Sheng had always had the habit of carrying silver needles with him. When he saw the old man’s leg injury, he wanted to help him treat it.
“I don’t mind, I don’t mind.” The old man smiled and waved his hand.”My leg is just like this. I don’t feel anything whether you prick it or not. Thank you, young lady. Are you married? I have a son who works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He’s tall and handsome, so I want to introduce him to you. ”
“Shengsheng, where are you?”
“I’m at school. What’s the matter?”
“Yes.” The director sounded a little troubled.”Our crew is having dinner together tonight. The investor specifically asked you to come with us, so we couldn’t reject you.”
