i'm not a bad man

Chapter 46 The person who came to Tianjin specifically for you
I slowed down subconsciously, and Ren Ran also slowed down with me and comforted me softly: "Don't be too nervous. There are no parents in the world who don't love their sons. Now even you are willing to compromise. In the past four years, they must have also You will change yourself, and I think they will be very happy to see you come back."

My voice was low: "I don't feel very good. I'm the only one in this building who doesn't have couplets posted on my door."

Ren Ran looked up and found that there were no couplets posted on the white door. He patted me on the shoulder and said, "Let's take a look."

……

Standing at the door, looking at the door that was already covered with dust, I felt extremely uncomfortable. At this time, Ren Ran also tried to ring the doorbell. After pressing it several times, there was no sound. Ren Ran looked at it with confusion. I took a look and tried knocking on the door again, but still got no response.

"Did they move?"

At this moment, I had fallen into a state of confusion. I was stunned for a long time, and then I shook my head at Ren Ran, indicating that I didn't know.

Thanks to Renran by her side, she knocked on the neighbor's door again and asked, only to find out that there had been no movement in our house for two or three years.

"Han Chao, why don't you go to the property management company and ask? You have to pay the property management fees. The management company will definitely be able to contact them."

……

On the way back, I imagined a hundred scenarios after meeting, either resenting each other or letting go. But I never thought it would be this situation. The property staff told us that the property owner of this house is named Wang Yitai. The registration information in the property was changed three years ago, and the property fees are paid every year, but no one has ever lived in it or rented it out. It is most likely that he is an investor speculating in real estate.

In other words, this house was sold by my parents three years ago.

Where have they gone? Are they still in Tianjin?
I thought so painfully.

"Han Chao, do you have any other relatives in Tianjin? Why don't you ask your relatives about the situation."

"My parents moved to Tianjin later, and I don't have any relatives here."

"What about your parents' friends?"

I shook my head and replied: "After something happened at home, their friends rarely interact with each other, and I have no contact with them."

Ren Ran couldn't help showing a melancholy expression and sighed: "What should we do?"

I fell into silence and couldn't come up with a valid idea for a while.

"How about... let's find a place to stay first. We are tired enough today. We will think of other ways tomorrow."

……

When I returned to the parking lot, I did not get in the car immediately. Instead, I stood under the streetlight and lit a cigarette. While smoking, I was thinking: Who else in this city might know the whereabouts of my parents?
After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't come up with an exact name.

In fact, they have been quite lonely these years.Before our family was in ruins, there were guests everywhere and friends everywhere. After the accident, we were afraid of borrowing money from them, so we hid as far away as we could. As time went by, their circle of friends gradually dispersed. Later, I ran away from home again...

What else can they care about in this city?

After extinguishing the cigarette in my hand, I looked up again at the building where I once lived. My eyes went from top to bottom, and finally stopped at the open space downstairs. It was said to be an open space, but there was also a fig planted there. Tree.

The dog that they threw to death from upstairs was buried under this tree.

Four years later, I no longer feel as deep a hatred as before, but I still wonder what kind of force is at work that caused such a huge grudge between my parents and me. Come?We should be the closest people in this world...

"Han Chao?"

It seemed like someone was calling me, so I looked back and saw that there was indeed a woman standing behind me.I recalled for a moment, and then I remembered that she was Huang Ya who my parents tried desperately to bring us together. I heard that her father was a middle-level cadre of the local Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, and we all lived in this community.

I called her name, but she said to me in a more surprised tone than before: "I thought I had recognized the wrong person. You are really Korean... When were you released?"

"what are you saying?"

"Didn't they say you were going to jail?"

I was so angry that I pointed at my nose and said with a smile: "You said I went to jail?"

"That's not what I said, it's what people are saying outside... You haven't been back for several years, right?" "It's been almost four years."

"Isn't this the end? Who in the right mind would stay away from home for four years?"

I was stunned and didn't know how to explain it for a moment; at this time, Huang Ya asked me again: "You came back to see your parents, right?"

"Well, I just went to ask the real estate agent and they said our house has been sold."

"It was sold a few years ago."

"Why did you sell the house so well?"

Huang Ya glanced at me contemptuously, and then smiled: "Your father has been in prison, and you have also been in prison. Do you really think that others will not discuss it privately?... Your parents must be selling their house because they feel shameless." Just stay in Tianjin..."

As soon as Huang Ya finished speaking, Ren Ran got out of the car, walked up to me and Huang Ya, and said with a bit of anger: "Don't let the one on the left go to jail and the one on the right go to jail. Do you know what he committed? ?”

Ren Ran's face was livid, which made her always gentle look more majestic. Huang Ya couldn't help but feel guilty. She looked at me first, and then asked tentatively: "Rape or fraud?"

"Did you know that in addition to the crime of rape and fraud, there is also the crime of defamation?..." After saying that, Ren Ran raised his mobile phone again and said: "Those things you just said about Han Chao, I used my mobile phone It’s been recorded. Do you believe it or not, I’m going to find a lawyer to sue you now?”

Huang Ya, who had always been willful and never cared about other people's feelings, unexpectedly restrained her bad temper in front of Ren Ran. She said with some flinch: "I'm not the only one who said this, I also heard it from others. , please stop being so serious."

"Don't spread rumors about uncertain things... Let me tell you, in the past few years, Han Chao has not only not been in jail, but also lived a good life. He has his own career and company... If you tell me, what are you saying? If you have any questions, you can come to Qingdao at any time. What you see with your own eyes is the truth, and what you hear along the way is just rumors."

Huang Ya turned to look at me and said, "So you have been in Qingdao these past few years. If you are really doing well, why haven't you come back for so many years?"

Ren Ran made up one rumor to break another rumor, which made me so unsure that I was speechless when asked by Huang Ya. Ren Ran didn't care about it at all and said: "For someone else to start a business like this, It can be said that he is in a relationship circle that is in prison. How can you let him come back?... Little sister, I don’t want to talk to you so much. Let’s add WeChat. When I travel to Qingdao in the future, you can send me a message. , if Han Chao is busy, I will entertain you the whole time on his behalf. At that time, I hope you can give him an objective evaluation instead of following others."

After saying that, Ren Ran handed Huang Ya the QR code for adding friends. I don’t know what Huang Ya’s mentality was. After being scolded by Ren Ran, she added Ren Ran as herself. WeChat friends.

After that, Ren Ran didn't say any more unnecessary gossip to her. She handed me her car keys, and then, with Huang Ya's gaze, she got into her car with me that cost nearly 300 million yuan. Porsche Cayenne.

……

I was full of confusion, so I said to her on the road: "Isn't it also a rumor that you are promoting my image so much? Aren't you afraid that she will really go to Qingdao?"

Ren Ran replied with a nonchalant expression: "Even if she really went to Qingdao, I don't know when it happened... Isn't it such a long time for us to start a career?"

I suddenly replied: "Then you really kill two birds with one stone. You seem to be lifting me up, but you are secretly putting so much pressure on me."

"You're killing two birds with one stone. I call it killing three birds with one stone... When she really has the opportunity to see your career with her own eyes, she will definitely help you promote it everywhere after she returns. By then, won't she stop attacking all the rumors against you? Have you broken yourself?"

"Thinking about it this way, I really kill three birds with one stone!..." After a short pause, I said seriously: "Sister Ran, I really can't tell it at ordinary times, but when I do things with you, I find that you are actually quite capable. Scheming.”

"This is not called scheming."

"Then what is this?"

"You can understand it as a strategy, because every time I use my brain, it is to guide things in the best direction... You should work hard. When you come back this time, you have also seen how terrible human words are. , you can escape for a while, but you can't escape for a lifetime... Unless you can really completely escape from this society, but who can really do that? You have to make money to maintain your life. "

"Yes."

After saying this, I turned my attention outside the car window, only to find that there were so many hotels on the streets outside, but Ren Ran showed no signs of stopping. I couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say, look for it first?" Can you stay in a hotel? There are many places on the roadside here."

"No rush, go pick someone up first."

"Pick up someone? Who is it?"

"A person who came to Tianjin specifically for you..."
