Chapter 88: All the world is miserable(1/2)
Ruan Qingshan, 28 years old, the eldest son in the family.
When he was young, he was playful. He was a kid from a rich family who hung out all day long because of the money at home. He was drunk now and drunk the next. He didn't care about what others said. He was often scolded by his parents for not being able to support himself.
So his parents opened a small account while they were young, and his sister Ruan Qingxue, who was 11 years younger than him, was born.
After his sister was born, Ruan Qingshan felt very uncomfortable at first, feeling like an outsider and being excluded.
At first, he didn't like this sister very much, because the age difference was more than ten years, so the relationship between brother and sister was very ordinary.
Until something happened to the family later, only two children who went out to visit relatives survived.
In the first three months, Ruan Qingshan was completely unable to accept such a huge change. He still tried to numb himself with alcohol and tried to return to the circle of the young master. At first, there was no change, but as he became strapped for money, he lost his former self.
If you act generously, you will be heavily in debt, looked down upon, and even belittled and beaten. In the end, it even evolved into a game where you can reduce your debt by 10,000 yuan after one beating.
Under this situation, Ruan Qingxue still patiently took care of him, studying during the day, working part-time the rest of the time, and working odd jobs at night until late at night.
One night, Ruan Qingshan saw the debt collectors finding them. He hid in the bedroom and did not dare to go out. Ruan Qingxue bowed her head in the living room and apologized, but was slapped by the angry debt collectors.
Seeing the scene where his sister was bleeding from the corner of her mouth, he realized how absurd, decadent and weak he had been in the past.
So he rushed out and started fighting with the person who did it.
That is, after that night, Ruan Qingshan completely abandoned his past self, persuaded Ruan Qingxue who wanted to drop out of school, and seriously told her that after he came to support the family, she must study hard, and then take back everything that belonged to the Ruan family...
…He knew there was nothing he could do, but fortunately he was still strong and could sell some of his strength to make money.
After that, the person who went out early and came back late became Ruan Qingshan. Occasionally, he had to go to nightclubs in order to work. He even left Nanling for a short time and followed the ship to unload downstream... When Ruan Qingxue had an accident before, he went out with the ship for three full weeks.
Time, there is no way to make it back in time.
In this way, seven years have passed.
He has also changed from the handsome young man in the past to a middle-aged man. Although he is only twenty-eight, he has already experienced many vicissitudes of life.
Although he wanted to find a stable job, his past was shady. Once he found out that he was a dishonest person subject to execution, no company dared to hire him, so he could only do some manual labor with a daily salary.
Life was a bit hard, and all his savings were used to pay off debts, but Ruan Qingshan was reluctant to let his sister suffer. He felt guilty for how ridiculous the past was, and he wished he could make up for everything.
After the morning's carrying work was over, he had time to take a breath and wipe the hot sweat from his forehead with his wrist. The weather has become very hot since May.
"Qingshan, come here."
"Come on." Ruan Qingshan held his waist and walked over: "What's the matter, boss."
"This is today's salary."
"But I'm not done yet."
"Just a little bit of work in the afternoon, I can handle it myself after that."
"But the daily income is one hundred and two, isn't two hundred a bit much here?"
"Just think of it as my apology." The boss wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You don't need to come here anymore."
After saying this, the boss thought he was going to make a few remarks, but unexpectedly Ruan Qingshan just showed a accustomed expression: "Okay, thank you for taking care of me, boss."
"Hey, I don't want to... The main supplier is putting pressure on me. What can I, a channel dealer, do?" The boss sighed. He didn't mind Ruan Qingshan's past, knowing that he was practical and willing.
Just do it, but how dare a small channel dealer go against Daosheng Group?
Ruan Qingshan smiled and said nothing. He was used to it... He had been working for seven years and struggled to walk at the bottom of society. He already knew that there were many kind-hearted people in the society. Many industries had their own unspoken rules. Many times,
I can't do it just because my arms can't twist my thighs.
"There is also this, you can take it back too." The boss pointed to the remaining half box of glass soda: "These are about to expire, so if you take them away, you are helping me deal with them."
He also noticed that Ruan Qingshan was looking at soda drinks when he was moving goods. He wanted to buy a bottle to try, but he didn't want to.
He also has to pay off debts and save money for his sister to go to college, so naturally he is reluctant to spend money on this kind of verbal enjoyment.
Ruan Qingshan picked up the soda and noticed that the shelf life was at least a month away. He didn't say anything, bowed, picked up the box and left.
Riding an old but still exciting Phoenix bicycle, Ruan Qingshan was in a good mood despite being fired.
He returned home, put half a box of orange soda in the mini refrigerator, and then made a call.
The agency will introduce him to the next job. If it doesn't work, he can only go to the job market and work there for a while.
"Hey, Brother Wang, it's me. I've been working recently..."
The call was connected.
Ruan Qingshan came to a barbecue stall on the outskirts of the city in the evening. When he smelled the smell of meat, his mouth immediately salivated.
The agent, Brother Wang, stood up and called him over. He didn't doubt it at all. We had cooperated with him many times in the past.
But this is the first time I have seen him be so generous, offering to pour him wine and treat him to meat... Brother Wang's financial situation is also not good, and his daughter is also said to be sick and needs to take expensive medicine every day.
Ruan Qingshan didn't think much about it, because he was also hungry. There was no reason not to eat wine and meat. The aroma penetrated his nose. If he had to spend money, he probably wouldn't be able to bear it, but it was free...
…
After taking the first bite, I couldn't stop. The two of them pushed each other to exchange cups.
When they were almost done eating, Brother Wang put down his wine glass and said drunkenly: "Yesterday... someone came to me and made me an offer."
Ruan Qingshan asked with a blushing face: "Conditions? Hiccup, what, conditions?"

"He asked me to convince you that if you sign this thing... you can find someone to treat the disease and save my daughter. A major operation costs this amount." He raised five fingers: "I can't even afford to sell it...
…But the other party said that as long as they convince you, it’s free.”
After hearing this, Ruan Qingshan suddenly became more conscious. He was silent for a while and said: "I can't help you with this matter. I'm sorry, Brother Wang - after signing the treaty, I'm sorry for my dead parents."
"You have to live a good life now, right?" Brother Wang said with a bitter smile: "Look at you now, you are living like no one."
After hearing this, Ruan Qingshan laughed: "That's wrong, Brother Wang... I can only live like a human being now."
He stood up and said, "Thank you for inviting me to dinner."
After Ruan Qingshan walked away, Brother Wang stood up, paid and left. He walked towards an alley and knelt down in front of one after walking a few steps.
"I've already taken care of the matter, can you let my daughter go?"
There was a silhouette deep in the alleyway, and a low voice sounded.
"I will keep my promise. Your daughter will receive a charitable donation and her illness will be cured."
Brother Wang kowtows: "Thank you, thank you..."
"You're welcome."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dagger shot out and cut his neck. Blood spurted out immediately. The man fell to the ground, clutching his throat, his eyes widened, and his breath was cut off.
……
When Ruan Qingshan returned home, he began to feel that something was wrong with him.
He felt intense heat all over his body.
He thought it was caused by drinking, so he took a cold shower.
But it's getting hotter and hotter, and it's like there's a fire burning in my chest, burning my skin and flesh.
At the same time, he also heard bowel sounds coming from his abdomen.
Gulu gulu...
I obviously just ate a lot, but now I feel extremely hungry.
He opened the refrigerator, looked for food to devour, took out the leftovers of bread and stuffed them into his mouth, but the more he ate, the hungrier he became and he couldn't eat enough.
Even if he ate the fresh meat he just bought, he still felt it was not enough, but the smell of blood remaining on the fresh meat made him feel extremely sweet.
He licked the plate clean.
But suddenly he came to his senses and realized that he was behaving like a beast that drinks blood.
When rationality returned, his stomach was churning. He ran to the edge of the pool, opened his mouth, and vomited out raw meat with blood.
But after vomiting, he felt strong hunger and thirst again, eager for new flesh and blood.
The strong sense of conflict caused him to slap his face crazily and bang his head against the wall, trying to use pain to awaken his rationality.
During this violent struggle, he came to the door and saw himself in the mirror hanging on the wall.
The teeth are sharp, the eyes are red, the arms are covered with black hair, the skin of the half-naked body is blue, and the facial features are somewhat deformed and hideous...
"Ah!"
Ruan Qingshan took a few steps back in fear. The huge force knocked over the tables and chairs. He smashed the mirror. The mirror fragments cut his palms and the ground was covered with blood.
At this moment, there was a sound outside the door.
"Brother, I'm back... huh? Why isn't the door closed?"
Ruan Qingxue's voice sounded, and she had already arrived in front of the door, and she quickly realized something was wrong.
The door was not closed, the lights were not turned on, and there was a slight smell of blood in the air, accompanied by the sound of collision.
Got robbed?
