Chapter 4 - Reunion
Xin Ye heard this and couldn't help moving his left hand. Many people knew that Xin He's left hand was missing two fingers, which were the index and middle fingers. There were rules in the underworld. Xin Ye also offended people when he was walking on his path, so these injuries were the price he paid during his youth. Now for so many years, no one has mentioned his left hand was suddenly being stared at by a teenager in front of him. Xin Ye felt a little uncomfortable for a moment but still kept a smile on his face.
Sheng Yanhui and Liang Xin's eyes turned cold. It seemed that as soon as Xiao Qingrong said something, the two men would immediately get worked up.
Xiao Qingrong didn't take the two cold stares into account and put all his heart on Xin Ye's left hand. There was an expectation as if he was looking at a rare phenomenon.
Of course, I can show you, but I'm afraid it might scare you.
Xin Ye was different from other people. If ordinary people had physical disabilities, they would likely try to cover it up, but Xin Ye was the opposite. Xiao Qingrong's sudden question of his left hand reminded Xin Ye of his youth, probably similar to the current Xiao Qingrong, a newborn calf unafraid of tigers.
Thinking about it, Xin Ye laughed, this time with a sincere smile, while passing his left hand over.
I'm not afraid. I just want to see the scar on your left hand.
Xiao Qingrong saw Xin Ye's left hand and without any caution, showed a happy smile, and held his hand. He saw the scars on each finger had differences. The index finger was completely cut off, there was nothing at the root, except for a flat surface. The middle finger was ironically cut halfway, leaving only half a finger.
Xiao Qingrong's slender fingers gently stroked Xin Ye's hand that seemed to have gone through vicissitudes, carefully, as if he were treating something precious, and then gently touched the incision, seemingly to feel something.
This was also Xin Ye's first time in decades that someone had touched him so much. Looking at Xiao Qingrong's serious appearance, it makes him feel peculiar. He saw an indescribable kindness from this child...How old was his grandson?
As he was thinking about his grandson, he looked at Xiao Qingrong more kindly. In his life, Old Xin had seen a lot throughout his life. At first, when he entered the third prison in Anyang City. It was rumored that he didn't know who he should give the gang to. In fact, apart from the 1.8 billion US dollars, the most important thing was that Xin Ye was framed.
His original actions were so clean that it was impossible for the police to get a hold of him, and he was later sent to prison because his daughter had framed him! That's right, very few people knew about this matter. No one knew that the famous Xin Ye was actually sent to prison by his own daughter because of her husband and all due to the 1.8 billion US dollars in his hand.
You have been wounded for at least thirty years, right? The index finger should be about forty-four years and the middle finger should be the thirty-eight year... Xiao Qingrong inspected the wound and saw through when the damage was afflicted. How could he know? Well, because of Xiao Qingrong's research on the residual limbs in the system space, after so many samples, he eventually figured the time when they were hurt.
When Xin Ye heard this, his heart stopped. He did not expect the child to see the condition of his wound. This made him all too curious about how this child entered prison.
Xin Ye didn't believe that he had accidentally killed someone. Depending on his ability, no one could find the body, if he secretly killed people, right?
Yes, these are early wounds.
It was these two wounds that witnessed the Xin Ye's rise. Xin Ye was the kind of man to be above others. It only became quiet after he received his persecution. But even in his eight years in prison, his name was still being circulated outside.
Oh ~ Xiao Qingrong nodded and let go of Xin Ye's hand. Even if he had a subject in prison, it was impossible to conduct experiments. After all, the equipment required for making prosthetic limbs was very costly. Since Xiao Qingrong's latest study was the control of neurons in relation to prosthetics, so of course, it was impossible to have any experimental material at this moment.
What's wrong? Haven't you seen this kind of hand before?
Xin Ye talked to Xiao Qingrong with great interest. The more he looked at the little guy, the more comfortable he felt.
No, I'm just a little curious. Is it inconvenient to live without the index and middle fingers?
Xiao Qingrong was also full of interest. He didn't notice it at all. If he asked ordinary people, most would feel hurt. Fortunately, it was Xin Ye, who had a big heart, smiled and didn't mind.
Yeah, when these two were broken off, I was in pain. but that was a thing of the past, and I'm used to it now.
There's always a time where you can't use certain things. After all, what's lost is lost, you can't have regrets for the things you can never get back.
Xiao Qingrong hasn't lost a body part, so it was naturally impossible to understand the idea of being disabled. Rather, he thought of the story he heard from 618. Regarding the story of Xin Ye entering the prison, the old man wasn't cruel enough.
After chatting for a bit, Xiao Qingrong returned to his cell when he was done eating, and couldn't wait to enter the Learning Space again!
In Area A of the Third Prison, there was no prison labor. Why? Because most of these prisoners in Area A were fugitives, organizing these people's labor every day required manpower and was prone to accidents. Therefore, over time, most of the prisoners in Area A would be in their cell except for mealtime.
Xiao Qingrong was very comfortable with this. It was good to come back to study after eating. There was no need to do anything else, except for the occasional physical exercise, Xiao Qingrong's life was very comfortable.
Everyone in Area A saw it. Old Xin was going to support the newcomer, so no one dared to offend Xiao Qingrong. After one and a half months, someone came to the prison to visit him.
That's right! When Xiao Qingrong received the notice from the prison guards, he remembered that he still had a younger sister outside.
After the death of his parents, Xiao Qingrong lived with his sister Xiao Qinghuan. The two were dependent on each other, so after Xiao Qingrong went to prison, only Xiao Qinghuan was alone.
He was taken to the meeting room by a prison guard. There was an anti-theft glass across. He needed to speak by phone. Xiao Qingrong saw the girl on the other side of the glass at a glance, a girl who looked similar to himself.
When Xiao Qinghuan saw her brother, her eyes became red. She had already cried before. Now she couldn't stop crying. She pressed one hand on the glass. She never thought this would happen.
Xiao Qingrong, dressed in prison clothes, was very calm. After sitting there, he picked up the phone and stared at the girl outside.
Xiao Qinghuan quickly picked up the phone, crying in her voice.
Brother, are you okay? No one is bullying you right?
Her voice was full of caring, so Xiao Qingrong felt a little familiar with each other.
I am fine. The simple three words made Xiao Qinghuan's tears fall again. Thinking of what happened at home after her brother entered prison, she cried again.
Brother, after you were arrested, a lot of people came outside and smashed everything in the house. They seemed to be looking for something, but they found nothing in the end. After hearing that you were in prison, our uncle and aunt moved into our house. I wanted to stop them, but I had no way. They replaced our house key and kicked me out...
She had been relying on her brother since she was a child, so after her elder brother was arrested, Xiao Qinghuan was caught off guard by the series of events. At this moment, she was helpless as a child.
From the memory, Xiao Qingrong knew that the girl was a good girl who listened to her brother. It was normal for her to be bullied when things like this happened, but it was also so unpleasant that it made Xiao Qingrong upset.
Then where do you live now?
He asked, but it made Xiao Qinghuan regret what she had said before. She shouldn't let her brother worry so much about her. All her brother needed to worry about was his well being in prison.
Brother, don't worry, I'm not living in the streets at the moment, I'm currently living with Mengmeng, Mengmeng's parents are very good, and they are willing to take me in after knowing our family's affairs. Brother, before you left, I secretly hid the 50,000 yuan, and it will never be given to anyone. Brother, you should get better and I will wait for you to come out.
Anxious to explain the current situation, Xiao Qinghuan didn't want to worry her elder brother. She also didn't know how cruel he had become.
Xiao Qingrong, who had met his sister, was very upset. Although the little girl had little to do with himself, she was the sister of this body after all!
At noon, Xiao Qingrong once again went to Xin Ye's table, and this time he came to talk.
Grandpa Xin, I need a little help.
He knew how great Xin Ye was in the prison, and knew how powerful his influence was outside. Naturally, he was the best choice as an ally.
It's a little unexpected for Xin Ye. You should know that he has been with this child for almost two months. The child is always calm and alone. Now he suddenly knew how to ask for help, which makes him very curious.
Oh? What do you want me to do for you?
There shouldn't be anyone offending him in prison, so the offender should be outside.
I want your people to protect my younger sister. Of course, it's not for nothing. If Grandpa agrees, I can also promise Grandpa Xin something.
Xiao Qingrong had a rule, if you want to get anything, you have to pay for it first. Now 618 doesn't work, the only person who could help him take care of his younger sister was the old man in front of him.
Hearing Xiao Qingrong's words, Grandpa Xin laughed. This time, he was really happy. He tapped his finger twice on the table and looked at the young man in front of him.
It's not impossible, I can take care of your younger sister for you, but... I want you to be my grandson, Xiao Qingrong, and take charge of the Qinglong Gang after leaving prison!
Xin Ye's words weren't loud, but Sheng Yanhui and Liang Xin who sat beside them heard it. Suddenly, they looked at Xiao Qingrong and didn't know what happened between the two.
Sheng Yanhui's gaze towards Xiao Qingrong was even more hostile because he did not expect that Xin Ye would choose this newcomer as the heir to the Qinglong gang! I recognized the other party as my godfather, but I didn't get any inheritance! There was also Liang Xin, looking at Xiao Qingrong deeply, no one knew what he was thinking.
I agree. Xiao Qingrong put himself in the same position as Grandpa Xin, at this time there was no inferiority at all, which made Grandpa Xin even more satisfied.
Don't look down at Xin Ye, he is old but not dumb. Whether it was the Qinglong Gang outside or everything in this prison, Xin Ye was watching.
Sheng Yanhui was brave and motivated but was hopeless. Xin Ye knew that he had been in this prison for too long. He had grown older...he was about to forget what his daughter looked like.
It was settled that Xin Ye would find someone to take care of his younger sister, Xiao Qingrong felt relieved and began to eat as if the matter discussed was a breeze. This attitude made Xin Ye like him even more.
It was probably fate when Xin Ye saw Xiao Qingrong for the first time and felt like he had a connection with him. Now the more he looks at it, the more he thought it was true. He hurriedly pushed the chicken legs over.
You are still young, grow up and eat more meat.
Xiao Qingrong also refused to eat the chicken legs, and let the Sheng Yanhui and Liang Xin watch the two. The mood was more getting complicated...
TN: Sorry for the delay, I'm feeling terrible and school has its priority. Fixed minor grammars and wordings.
