"I didn't expect that I would meet you here after not seeing each other for so many years." Xiao Fan looked at him and smiled.
Du Mingcheng looked at him with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect to see you before I died."
"By the way, what are you doing?" Xiao Fan looked at him and asked.
Du Mingcheng sighed: "My wife has run away and my daughter is gone. I have no hope of living anymore. I might as well just die."
"Don't worry, I finally found an acquaintance. It's boring to die. Let's go have a few sips of wine tonight." Xiao Fan said.
Du Mingcheng had a bitter smile on his face: "I don't have any thoughts about drinking now. I'd rather die."
As he said that, he turned around and wanted to jump down.
"Wait!" Xiao Fan stopped him.
Du Mingcheng turned to look at him with some confusion: "What's wrong?"
"I still have something to ask you. You can die later." Xiao Fan said.
Du Mingcheng was puzzled: "Ask me what, I'll die after I finish."
Xiao Fan: "Weren't you over there before? Why did you come here?"
Du Mingcheng was helpless: "It's completely impossible to survive over there now, so we have no choice but to come here."
When Xiao Fan heard this, he remembered that someone seemed to have said this to him before.
"Is there anything else?" Du Mingcheng asked.
Xiao Fan: "Yes. When are you going to pay back the fifty thousand yuan you owed me before? It's been so many years and it's time to pay it back, right?" Xiao Fan said.
Du Mingcheng was stunned: "When did I owe you money?"
Xiao Fan: "Hey! What do you mean? You were thinking that you were going to die, so you simply refused to accept the debt, right? You even wrote the IOU with your own hands at that time, and you have forgotten it now?"
"I really don't remember. Tell me the time and I'll recall it," Du Mingcheng said.
Xiao Fan: "Just two days after I arrived at the company, you said that you had something to do at home and wanted to ask the company to advance your salary. I happened to catch you at that time. I also had some money on hand at that time, so I lent it to you. I thought
Are you up yet?"
"Is this happening?" Du Mingcheng looked puzzled.
Xiao Fan walked up to him and said, "You are not an honest person. I sincerely wanted to help you at that time, but now you want to deny it as soon as you slap your ass and leave?"
"I...did I really borrow it?" Du Ming Chengdu was a little doubtful.
Xiao Fan sat down next to him and said, "If you don't believe me, go back and look through your house. There must be an IOU."
The people below originally thought that Xiao Fan came up to persuade others, but they didn't expect that he would also sit on the edge, and they suddenly screamed in fright.
"It seems...it seems like something like this happened." Du Mingcheng seemed to have remembered it at this time.
Xiao Fan said: "Hey, that's right. Go look for it at home. You can return the money to me first. I won't bother to care about other things."
"But...but I don't have that much money at the moment. My family only has about ten thousand yuan in total." Du Mingcheng had a complex expression.
Xiao Fan was surprised: "Isn't it? You still don't want to pay it back?"
"No, I really don't have that much money. You also know that I am just an ordinary person. How can I save so much money? My family's previous expenses have almost been spent." Du Mingcheng said.
Xiao Fan hesitated for a while, then turned to look at him and asked: "Then what do you think of this matter?"
Lao Du frowned, and he was also thinking about what to do about this matter.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, causing Xiao Fan to almost fall backward.
Upon seeing this, Lao Du hurriedly supported him: "Slow down, be careful not to fall."
Xiao Fan looked back and looked down, and said with some fear: "It's a bit scary to sit here. Let's go to your house to chat, and look for the IOU by the way."
"This... okay, I, Lao Du, am not a person who likes to default on his debts. Even if I die, I will pay you back your money first." He said and left from the edge of the roof with Xiao Fan.
The people below breathed a sigh of relief after seeing them leave.
Then Lao Du took Xiao Fan to the small door on the roof. He took out the key and was about to unlock it, when he suddenly realized a problem.
He turned around and looked at Xiao Fan in surprise: "That's not right, my door is still locked, how did you get up here?"
Xiao Fan said: "I was resting on the roof of this building and was sleeping well. Who knew I was woken up by you? Okay, stop talking so much and go find the IOU quickly. I'm still waiting to use the money.
"
"Okay... okay." Lao Du was hesitant and didn't ask any more questions.
Then he opened the small door, and the people on the stairs outside were trying to break down the door.
Suddenly the door opened and they were all stunned.
"Come on, let's go, we have something to do and we have to go down." Xiao Fan said and asked those people to stand on both sides.
Those people watched with astonishment as Xiao Fan and Lao Du walked down together.
Bang! They didn't come back to their senses until there was a slamming of the door downstairs, and they hurriedly turned around and followed.
After arriving in the room, Lao Du was rummaging around, while Xiao Fan was sitting there drinking tea: "Don't be in a hurry, look for it slowly."
Lao Du searched for a long time, and he finally found an IOU!
He took the IOU and came to Xiao Fan to look at it: "I really found it, take a look."
Poof! Xiao Fan almost spat out the tea in his mouth.
He turned around and took Lao Du's IOU and looked at it. Although the handwriting was a little unclear, he could still vaguely make out the general outline: "Lin Guanghua borrowed 5,000 yuan from Du Mingcheng today. This is hereby used as evidence."
Next is the borrower's signature and time.
"This is not mine. This is five thousand yuan that someone else owes you. It has been owed for eight or nine years, and you have forgotten it." Xiao Fan returned the IOU to him.
Lao Du took the IOU and looked at it carefully: "It seems to be true."
Suddenly! He reacted!
He turned to look at Xiao Fan with a surprised look on his face: "That's not right! If I really borrowed your money, shouldn't the IOU be with you? Why did you come to my house to look for it?"
Xiao Fan said with a smile: "It seems so, but that's not important anymore. At worst, just pretend that those tens of thousands of dollars don't exist."
Lao Du looked at Xiao Fan and couldn't help but sigh: "I know you want to persuade me not to commit suicide, but I..."
As he spoke, he shook his head.
Xiao Fan said with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing that people can't live with in this life. Let the past go by. Don't live in memories all the time."
"Alas." Lao Du kept sighing.
Xiao Fan looked at him: "Do you have time? Come have a drink with me."
Lao Du looked at him and finally nodded: "Okay!"
Then the two left together.
When they came downstairs, the people had not dispersed. They were a little confused when they saw Xiao Fan and Lao Du coming down together, and they seemed to be fine.
