Chapter 106: Made him sonless
“I’m in trouble.” After the call is connected, I say to her directly.
At the other end of the phone, Yumi is speaking in a strange tone. She’s saying quickly: “I’m not convenient now. I’ll call you later.”
After that, she just hangs the phone up.
I feel a little strange. Because her voice sounds irritable and her mood feels impatient, far from her usual calm tone. I even hear a little panic from her voice.
I frown and drive all the way home without thinking about it. When I take Dorra upstairs and enter the door, I’m freezing.
Didi and Nanny are sitting face to face on the sofa and both of them look embarrassing. Watching me come in and there’s a young girl following with me. They are freezing too.
“You… You come back?” Didi seems to be in a little panic. She’s immediately standing up and looking at me, then looking at Nanny again, “This one… This Miss Fang is looking for you.”
There’s tension in her tone, and some doubts. I can’t explain too much, just nod to her. Then I bring Dorra up, point at her and say, “Didi. This is my friend’s daughter. She’ll stay with us for some time, you help her get in and tidy up her things first. Well, Dorra, you go with her.”
Then I look at Nanny and ask: “Why are you here?”
Her expression is somewhat awkward, and she’s standing up too. She seems so nervous that she doesn’t even know where to put her hands: “I… You said you were not feeling well. I just come after work and want to see whether you are all right.”
Her tone of voice is a little grieving, looking at my eyes, obviously with gentleness.
I feel a little headache and sigh: “I’m fine. Nothing’s wrong… Thank you… Thank you for coming to see me.”
She seems to want to smile, but just pulls a corner of her mouth and can’t smile at all.
I sigh. I know my tone was a little too hard just now. Maybe she’s feeling a little aggrieved. But now I’m really in a bad mood. What happened tonight is so sudden that I’m really not feeling good.
Didi is standing aside. This girl is kind, but not silly. She seems to see that the atmosphere is somewhat delicate. But she doesn’t say anything, just gives me a deep look, sighing lightly. Then she comes over and takes Dorra’s hand, says gently: “Come with me.”
Dorra hesitats and is looking at me for help. I nod, and she obediently let Didi takes her hand and enters the room.
Nanny is looking at me and finds I’m with a gloomy face. Grievances grow stronger in her eyes. She’s coming slowly and whispering: “I… I didn’t mean to rush you. I was just worried about you. Didn’t you say you were uncomfortable during the day? I…”
I look into her eyes and whisper: “OK, I know, I know… I don’t blame you.”
She’s still not reassured: “Are you really OK? I don’t think you look very well.” She seems to want to reach out and touch my face, but just stretching out half of her hand, she puts it down again.
I shake my head and say: “Sorry, I have something on my mind. I’m not in a good mood right now! But, it’s no big deal.” I try to soften my voice a little, “Let’s talk about it tomorrow, okay?”
“Have you met any trouble?” She says, “Is there anything I can help?”
I think it over very carefully: “Not for the time being…” Looking into her eyes, I feel soft in my heart, “Well, if I need help, I will definitely look for you, I promise, okay?”
Nanny is not a fool after all, and she knows that everyone is embarrassed now – especially here is in my home.
She shows a reluctant smile on her face, then says with sighing: “Okay, I’m leaving.”
I send her out. Didi doesn’t come out of the bedroom until I come back and close the door.
“She has left?” Her expression is still soft, with no complaint at all.
I’m a little embarrassed: “Yes… I’m sorry.”
She’s smiling indifferently: “Why do you say sorry?”
I am speechless.
Yes, why should I say I’m sorry?
Of course, I know why I say “I’m sorry”. But can I say the real reason?
DIdi is really an understanding girl. I even think she seems too surprisingly kind!
She comes to me with smile, reaches out and helps me take off my coat. Then she frowns: “How did you get blood on the coat?”
I look at it, and sure enough, it was stained with some blood: “Other people’s, tonight encountered some troubles, and I fought with some others.”
She gives me a grumbling look and whispering: “Brother Little 5… Can you stop being so impulsive in the future? You’ve always been impatient… But do you know I’m really worried about it. Please, for my sake! OK?”
I’m speechless at the moment. I can’t help holding her in my arms and kissing her on her hair: “OK, I’ll remember.”
I look at her and ask: “Where’s Amy? Why didn’t I see her?”
She’s smiles helplessly: “Amy, she said to go out for a walk. Both of you are too emotional… I don’t know where she went.”
I think it won’t be a serious matter, just look at the room and say: “This girl…”
Didi is laughing suddenly, looking into my eyes and holding me. Her eyes are as gentle as water, whispering: “Brother Little 5, actually, I am a very simple girl. I never ask you what you are doing outside. I don’t know so much, and I don’t know what you’re busy doing. You… There are many things you don’t really need to explain to me.” The girl blinks and says in a sincere voice, “That Miss Fang came to see you tonight. Actually, I know in my heart that I don’t want pretend to be silly on purpose. I just don’t want to ask.”
I feel a little choke with sobs and unable to speak at the moment. After a while, I’m just whispering: “I… Actually, I…”
“You needn’t say that.” She shakes her head, sighing and hugging me tighter: “There are some things I really don’t want to think about. Miss Fang, can’t I see her mind? She’s prettier than me, better than me, and richer than me, surely smarter than I am. I’m just a silly girl. I don’t know anything except to help you do housework at home.”
I don’t know why. Suddenly, my mind is confused and I blurt out: “Don’t you worry about me…”
“I worry.” She still looks very weak, “I do worry about it. But what’s the use of my worries? Should I blame you or question you? Would it be useful to have a big fight with you?”
Her eyes are suddenly turning red, burying her head in my arms and murmuring in a low voice: “Brother Little 5, if you really want to leave me in the future. Can you promise me one thing? You have to be the first peol to tell me, face to face, and then I promise I won’t entangle you.”
I don’t know what it feels like. I’m just feeling a sense of guilty is surging up in my heart, which makes me want to slap myself: “Don’t think too much! It won’t happen.”
She’s wiping the corners of her eyes in my arms quietly, raising her head, and reappearing a bright smile on her face: “Okay. I go to get some medicine for that little girl. She seems about to have a cold and her hair is wet. Was it raining? It shouldn’t be raining today…”
She comes out of my arms. I just find Dorra don’t know when to open the door half quietly, reveals half her head and looks at me in the room with a slight wink in her eyes. Seeing that I have found her, she’s immediately retracting.
I sigh. Sitting on the sofa, I tidy up my mood. After a while, I pick my mobile phone up and dial Yumi’s number again.
She simply stops answering this time. After a few rings, the phone is automatically cut off.
I frown slightly, as if I have smelled a trace of uneasiness.
In the night, it’s already after ten o’clock. Didi has had Dorra bathed, I’m still sitting in the livingroom to wait for the call from Yumi. But my heart is full of doubts.
Isn’t Yumi willing to help? Or she doesn’t want to talk to me at all. In fact, I just want to ask her to help me find out who’s the owner of the villa. Who’s that man and where did he actually come from.
I sit on the sofa and think carefully about what happened tonight. There was no time to think so much at that time. Now, sitting down and thinking slowly, I find that many details are worth studying.
First of all, I remember that when the man was beaten by me, he was speaking in a northern accent, absolutely not a local one.
Secondly, I remember there were a row of motorcycles were parking outside the villa. There were several road racing motors, which look like professional racing ones, apparently very expensive. After all, I have spent time in the motorcycle bunker’s circle. This really top-notch racing motocycles are not available locally. I know that very well!
Finally, at about eleven o’clock, my mobile phone is ringing!
It’s Yumi.
“Chen Yang, I’m downstairs at your house. You come down immediately, alone!” After that, she hangs up the phone in a somewhat cold tone.
I’m a little confused, get up, put on a coat, knock Didi’s door open, tell her I go downstairs to buy cigarettes, and then I go out of the room.
It’s already over eleven o’clock. The neighborhood is quiet and the street lights are shining. When I come out of the gate, I see a silver BMW is parking under a street lamp by the side of the road. The window half opens. Yumi is sitting inside.
Yumi is holding a cigarette in her hand. The cigarette end in her fingertips is sparkling. I walk over. But when halfway there, I’m surprised to see Nanny is sitting in the back seat of the car.
“Get in the car.” Watching me standing in front of the car and stunning, Yumi flicks off the cigarette, says lightly.
I turn to the other side of the car and pull the door, get into the car. There’s worry in Nanny’s eyes. She is looking at me worrily, eyebrows are wrinkling tightly.
Yumi doesn’t look at me. She just rolls up the window first and turns out the lights.
“Chen Yang, I don’t have much time to stay here for a long time, so I’ll make a long story short… Don’t interrupt me when I’m saying. I’ll let you ask when I finish. Do you understand?” Yumi’s tone is somewhat stiff.
“OK!” I reply to her.
“Nanny, you too, don’t interrupt now.” Yumi doesn’t look back, just glances at Nanny with the rearview mirror.
She takes a deep breath and gives me a quick look with unprecedented dignity: “Chen Yang. You’re in trouble, a great trouble! I can even say that if there’s no miracle this time, you’re dead! Tomorrow afternoon at the latest, they will find you, and then you will die miserably!”
I frown and want to ask questions, but then I remember what she has said and just close my mouth.
Yumi is wearing a very large coat. Hair is a little messy, and it seems to come in a hurry.
“Do you know a girl names Dorra? About three hours ago, were you in the villa area not far from the clubarea in the eastern suburbs? And then you took the girl from there, and hit some people to injury?”
She looks a little pale.
I nod.
She’s twisting her body and looking directly at me, with a complex expression in her eyes: “I’m very realistic. I said you can come to me when you are in trouble. But this time you’re getting too annoyed. I can’t help you. If I dare to protect you, no, I should say, if I dare to reveal something connect with you. Even I will die too. So, I’m sorry. I can’t help you. Just now, I found Nanny because I knew there were something between you two. Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t ask her for help. I found her and told her to leave you immediately. Don’t get in touch with you any more!”
I still keep silence.
Speaking of this, she seems laughing, but her smile is somewhat reluctant: “Unfortunately, she refused, I have told her everything, but she refused to ignore you, so I have no choice but to accompany her to see you. What I can do is to give you a suggestion. You’d better go upstairs and pack up your things at once, and then take your woman with you to go away at once! Go right now! Now! Take the fastest car, leave the city, wherever you go, just as far away as possible, or go to a small town, anonymously, and pray to God that they will never find you… And if you are found, you’d better kill yourself first! Otherwise…”
“I…” I just want to open my mouth.
Suddenly she’s getting angry and holding out her hand to grab my clothes. The woman, who has always been calm and elegant, is angry in her eyes: “Are you crazy? How could you do such a thing! You know how big trouble you’ve caused?! Who do you think you are? Who can keep you alive? Juan? Or Nanny?”
I take a deep breath, stare into her eyes, pull her hand away, and say coldly: “Yumi, before you get angry with me, can you make things clear first?”
She’s turning her head and looking out of the window, takes a few deep breaths and then seems to suppress the fire in her heart.
“After you saved the girl, they found a mobile phone left by her. You badly injured the man in that place. Now he is still in the hospital, but they have begun to search for the girl. That mobile phone is an important lead. You should thank God that this happened to be known by me. In that mobile phone, the last call record is your phone number. Two bodyguards who were knocked unconscious by you were told, that Dorra girl hid in the bathroom and was caught by them. Obviously, the girl made a phone call to you in the bathroom! So, everything is clear. You ran to the villa, hurt those guys, and took the girl away, right?”
She’s hummin: “Now Jimmy Chou has sent almost all his men in the casino to find you out! Thankfully, they don’t know who are you. And I happen to know! And that phone number, I also recognize your phone! So, I found Nanny… I can tell you honestly that I am not going to save you. I advised Nanny to give up on you too!”
I look back at Nanny. Her expression is grave and her eyebrows are tight.
“Is the man I have beaten having very great background?” I sigh, “Did I provoke someone I shouldn’t provoke?”
“He’s nothing special.” Yumi’s tone is a little mocking and angry, “Just, Jimmy Chou or Juan, when they see him, they have to bow heads to him! This man, in fact, is nothing great. But his father, is the big boss behind Jimmy and Juan! That is to say, the man you have beaten, it’s the ‘prince’ of the organization! Now I guess the big boss got the news too. So, if you run fast enough, you may be able to live a little longer.”
“Enough, Yumi!” Nanny is suddenly shouting angrily, “You shut up!”
She’s looking at me with some emotional and gritting her teeth, “I’ll go home tonight! I go to ask the old man to save Chen Yang’s life! I go to beg him and kneel down to him! You say nobody can hold it back, so I’ll go and ask the old man. If he speaks, nobody can touch Chen Yang’s hair!”
Yumi is looking at Nanny with a little pity in her eyes and shaking her head: “Nanny, you’re totally unconscious. You’re unconscious by what you call it love! Are you going to ask your old man? What do you ask for? Old man can keep Chen Yang. But if he does that, you would be totally offending our big boss! If they turn their faces, there must be at least one reason for that. Why do you ask your old man to do this? Why did he make such a great sacrifice for Chen Yang? If he asks you who is Chen Yang, how do you answer? You tell him that Chen Yang is your man? You know… If you dare to say that, without the help of our boss, the Ng’s family will start scraping Chen Yang by themselves!” She’s saying with a touch of pity and shaking her head, “If Chen Yang only made a small trouble, just like the last time he went to the police station, you can keep him by make a phone call. But now the things are different!”
Nanny is freezing, her face is showing a little helpless look, deeply looking at me, eyes unexpectedly sheding tears, grinding her teeth: “No matter how! I will never let anyone touch him!”
Yumi is shaking her head, reaching out and touching Nanny’s face gently. Her tone softens a little: “OK, now is not the time to say that… What I can do is to come and tell you the infomation. What we need most is to let Chen Yang run! Maybe there’s still a way to go. But don’t take plane, because that will leave your ID info. You’d better leave the city overnight by train or bus and find a place where you can hide your name.” At this point, Yumi is grinning bitterly, “Don’t come back for a lifetime. And I’m not sure if you won’t be found. Because, Chen Yang, you can’t imagine how powerful they are!”
She’s staring at me in the eyes: “The big boss has only one son. And this man has not even left his descendants. Now you beat him like this. The doctor said that he has lost his ability to be a man forever. You made big boss sonless. Do you think he could let you go?”
She’s sighing: “I’m going back now… The whole organization is busy, Jimmy Chou is about going crazy. Do you know, Chen Yang, two bodyguards who were injured by you in the villa last night are dead now. When Jimmy arrived, he immediately tortured the two bodyguards and killed them with his own hands. But there’s at least one good thing about this is he’s finished too. The big boss’s son has an accident on his territory, and he’s done with it this time.”
After a few seconds of silence, Yumi starts the car and says: “OK, I’m done with what I should say. Now I’m going back. I’ve been out too long to be suspicious. Go down, you two. I know Nanny you still have something to say with Chen Yang. I don’t care what you say to him, but you’d better hurry up. He walks one minute earlier, he would be a little safer!”
After that, Yumi closes her mouth and looks at me quietly.
I have some confusion in my mind and say in a hoarse voice: “Thank you, Yumi.”
Yumi is shaking her head: “Don’t thank me. I can’t help you this time. I’m sorry.” Without stopping for one more second, she’s driving the car to leave immediately.
Nanny is standing beside me, looking at me for a second, and then saying: “Go upstairs, pack up, you and that little girl, and your girlfriend. You must go with me immediately!”
