By the evening of the eighth day, Brucille had yet to arrive at Mr. Liao’s place. He must have already left on a crane.
He took the letter out of the drawer in an extremely sorrowful mood.
A letter was written to him. It introduced Mr. Liao to a 19-year-old daughter named Liao Xiaoyou, followed by an unreliable ex-wife, Meng Yun, Liao Xiaoyou’s biological mother.
He had wanted to see his own daughter several times, but Meng Yun had found various excuses to refuse. In the end, he could only watch his daughter from a distance. Until he found that he had fallen ill and had no chance to continue to peek at Xiaoyou.
So he handed the last life-saving straw to Brucille.
After reading the letter, Brucille’s mood was unusually heavy. There would be dead trees in spring, but he didn’t have the power to bring the dead back to life.
The bank card should be all of Mr. Liao’s savings, which was quite a big number.
She should be about 20 years old. Brucille put the envelope in his pocket and drove toward Liao Xiaoyou’s hometown, which was more than 100 miles away.
Heaven didn’t like it. Brucille only had half an hour to go on his way, and it began to rain heavily. This road was full of holes and uneven. The expected journey of one and a half hours had taken about three hours.
It was already past nine o’clock in the evening when they reached their destination, but the rain didn’t seem to stop, as if it was deliberately going against Brucille.
According to the location indicated by the navigation, the residential area ahead should be Liao Xiaoyou’s home.
Brucille, who didn’t have an umbrella, walked out at this time. He would definitely be able to wet his hair to his toes within ten steps at most, and even his leopard-printd triangle bottom pants wouldn’t be spared.
In the end, he did not make this impulsive decision. After waiting in the car for half an hour, the pouring rain finally stopped.
Brucille ran down and trotted all the way to the door of the room. He shook off the rain on his hair. When he was about to knock on the door, he heard a crash.
Brucille’s little heart skipped a beat. He thought something had happened, and then he heard hysterical howls and curses coming from the room.
“You b*tch, I’ve raised you for so long. What’s the use of that…”
“You little b*tch, whether you are willing or not, I am going to marry you tomorrow. What’s wrong with Mr. Hwang? After you marry him, you can eat delicious food and drink spicy food. Your mother and I can also live a good life…”
Through the door, Brucille could feel that this was the words of a drunk man.
Bang.
The sound of glass falling to the ground followed by the sound of a girl crying. It seemed that she had been beaten, which made Brucille’s whole body hair stand on end.
It’s been 21 years. I’ve never seen a child beaten like this. It’s a bit too much.
He knocked on the door.
But the knock on the door was completely covered by the sound in the room, so he increased the strength of the knock, from the beginning to the end… and then directly turned into a knock.
Finally, Brucille’s knock on the door drowned out the shouts in the room. Someone had come to open the door.
It was a middle-aged man who opened the door. He seemed to be in his 50s and was full of the smell of alcohol.
The man squinted at Brucille and asked with an unfriendly look, “Who are you looking for?”
Brucille, who was standing at the door, asked softly, “Hello, I would like to ask Liao Xiaoyou if she lives here.”
Brucille stretched his head and looked at the three people in the living room. The man in front of him who had drunk wine, a middle-aged woman who was leisurely eating at the table, and a girl who was lying on the ground bleeding.
In addition to the smell of alcohol, the middle-aged man was well-dressed. He didn’t look like a homeless man. The woman sitting at the table was wearing a delicate silk robe and had a good family background.
A leather sofa in the living room was more suitable for the management of the family.
The only thing that was out of place was the girl lying on the ground. She seemed to be living in the 80s.
This yellow-haired, flower-shaped dress seemed to say that she was a picked-up girl.
Brucille had almost guessed the identities of these three people. The girl lying on the ground should be Liao Xiaoyou. The woman who ate should be her biological mother, Meng Yun. And this man was undoubtedly her father.
Liao Xiaoyou, who had been unconscious on the ground, seemed to hear someone calling her name. She stumbled and supported herself on the sofa, trying to stand up.
The woman who was holding the bowl suddenly shouted, “Are you going to die? Your dirty hands touched the sofa. Do you know how expensive this is?”
As he spoke, he once again kicked his own daughter to the ground.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Brucille took a deep breath. He was worried that if he went berserk, he would be able to kill someone.
But in the end, he held it back. Then he stepped into the door and helped the girl up, asking, “Are you Liao Xiaoyou?”
“Yes, I am. Who are you?”
“I was entrusted by a friend to send you something. I think this aunt should be your mother, Meng Yun, right?”
Liao Xiaoyou didn’t say anything, but her eyes had already explained everything.
Suddenly, a little boy rushed out of the house. Brucille found that there was a fourth person in the house. The little boy wore a name brand that was about the same age as Yang Juan’s son.
Seeing the broken glass and blood on the ground, he said with a disgusted face, “Dad, when did you get this picked-up sister out for me? I’ve had enough.”
“Son, don’t worry. I will marry her in a few days. We can still make a lot of money. From now on, the three of us can live a carefree life.”
Brucille felt that if he continued to stay in this place, it was very likely that he would kill someone.
He tried his best to hold back this crazy thought. He helped Liao Xiaoyou to walk out of the living room, but the back father reached out to stop him.
“Do you know what you are doing? This is my home. This is illegal breaking in. I can call the police and arrest you now. Do you believe it?”
Brucille pushed the back father’s hand away and said fiercely, “Uncle, I hope you can figure out one thing. If you call the police now, the person who will be arrested will definitely not be me. Look at the blood all over the ground and then look at her condition of injury. If you don’t send her to the hospital in time, maybe there will be sequelae. If she becomes a fool in the future, will you raise her for the rest of your life?”
Hearing that his daughter would become a fool, Meng Yun put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands. He looked at Brucille with a strange look and looked him up and down.
“I don’t know who you are, nor do I know that you are not a human dealer. My daughter is only 19 years old and has just become an adult.”
“Auntie, I’m just doing what someone asked me to do. I won’t hurt your daughter. At least I’m safer than this man.”
Just like that, the couple watched Brucille take Liao Xiaoyou out of the room. The next moment, Brucille and she appeared in the emergency room of the hospital.
Four needles were poked in the back of his head, and there were many scratches all over his body, and the bones of his fingers were broken…
However, his luck wasn’t bad and didn’t hurt his vital parts. He wouldn’t die.
