Leon freely answered “Okay.”
Leon was going to get the pen and paper. But Chenlei Hua took that back. “Fourth brother. Don’t play any trick. Don’t pass any information to your men. Grasp the opportunity I gave you.”
“Don’t worry, second brother. I will not act recklessly. I know you are offering me a chance.” Leon replied.
Then Chenlei gave Leon the pen and paper. Leon frowned and he didn’t know what shall he write. So he asked “how about this? I will write what you want me to.”
Chenlei thought about it and said “I am too sad for losing my elder brother, I need to take a rest. Pick me here at nine tomorrow morning.”
Leon wrote what Chenlei ordered and gave it to him. Chenlei left when he was sure nothing was wrong with it.
There was no bed or chair in the room. So we could only sat on the floor. We were lucky that there was a carpet there. Therefore it was not too cold to sit on the ground.
“Will not Brother Long feel strange when he see your note? Why don’t you call him?” I asked Leon.
“There must be signal shielding device around the house. So the cellphone has no signal and we couldn’t call.” replied Leon.
“Will Brother Long believe that?”
“Brother Long is a man of long experience, so of course he will feel it was abnormal. But he will not doubt it tonight. Because it is normal for me to rest a night in my house for being sad.”
“Chenlei asked Brother Long to pick you up tomorrow morning. He will say we already left when he comes.” I added.
Leon nodded “Yes, he will say we left in early morning but he doesn’t know where we go.”
“Will Brother Long trust him? Brother Long is so shrewd, I guess he will feel it’s abnormal.” I asked him.
“It’s hard to say. Normally he will.”
“If Brother Long noticed it’s abnormal. What will he do?” I asked again.
“It depends. But he will never rush in to search for us. After all, it’s Hua family here. He will not do that. He will try to find us everywhere. It depends.”
“If our chairman was in his hand, then we would be under his control. Will he shut us here for a month?”
“Maybe several days, maybe more than a month. He shut us but not kill us because he wants to leave us as a bargaining chip. He will make use of us if we are useful. He will hurry up to plan. He will kill us as long as he controls the group. Of course that’s my guess. I don’t know if he will think the same way. In the final analysis, I were not him, I don’t know what he is thinking about.”
“I’m so upset. Your eyes just got better, but now we are in trouble again. And we don’t even know if we could go out.” I sighed.
“Don’t worry, we will go out for sure. Even if Brother Long dosen’t come, I could get out of here. ” said Leon.
“What’s your method? Tell me.” I was happy hearing that.
“I haven’t think out yet.”
“Are you kidding me? How could you figure a way out.”
“We are just locked in. Don’t be impatient. We will find a way out. Of course the lord will not let us die easily for we already experienced so many things together. You cured my eyes and I can see you now. It’s a happy thing.”
I felt better hearing that. I shall believe that he could help us out. But the biggest problem now was Yaohui Hua was in Chenlei ‘s hand. We dared not to do anything against Chenlei for that.
Even though we could run out later we dared not to do anything. Of course Leon would never give up his father. No matter what conditions Chenlei put forward, Leon would say yes as long as Yaohui was in his brother’s hand.
“What are you thinking? Don’t worry, I told you I will take you out. I will offer you comfortable life and will not let you suffer anymore. ” Leon suddenly became quite emotional.
He hugged me in his arms so that I could hear his heartbeat.
“Actually I wanted to tell you something from long time ago. But I don’t know how. We are in such a difficult situation now, I think I have to make it clear. Or I’m afraid I will have no chance anymore.” I got up and talked to him while looking at him.
“Why you suddenly become so serious? What’s the matter? I’m not used to it, you are so serious.” Leon said.
“It’s a very serious problem. I wanted to tell you but I don’t know how. I feel so guilty to hide this from you.”
Leon stretched out his hands and held my face. Then he asked “What is it? So serious?”
I tried to tell him but in vain. It was really difficult for me to tell him the truth.
Leon was anxious so he asked “What’s going on? Tell me. Why you are so embarrassed to tell me?”
Leon was very worried, I knew he might misunderstand it.
“Don’t rush. Listen to me. It’s related to Nan Lin.”
I found it might not be possible if I wanted to explain it in several words. Actually I didn’t even know the context clearly. So I had to think where shall I began.
“Tell me, what happened with Nan Lin? What did she do to you? Or other things?” Leon asked in a hurry.
“I went to Nan Lin after I knew I was Nan Su. Then I asked her why we had a picture together. Then she admitted that she knew Nan Su under my enforcement.”
“Then? What happened later? Why you are so nervous and embarrassed to tell me?” Asked Leon.
“She told me she was not Nan Lin. And as you guessed, she was not the one who took care of you when you were sick. She was the fake one.”
Then Leon became more excited. “She really said that? Then did she tell you who was the real Nan Lin?”
I looked at Leon but I didn’t know how to tell him.
He looked at me and it seemed he got some clue. “was that you who was taking care of me at that time?”
“Will you believe me if I said yes?” I asked slightly.
“Of course, I always believe you were the one who took care of me when I could not see. This feeling got even stronger when I was blind again.” Leon said. “But how could it be?”
I shook my head and said “I don’t remember. And I don’t know why it turned out like this. And all these information came from Nan Lin. I’m not sure it’s true or not.”
“No, you are sure about it. Or you will not seek the old Chinese medicine. You could find him then it means you are sure about it.”
Leon was so smart. He could find it quickly when there was a flaw in my words.
