Sure enough, my guess was right.
Xiaopang curled his lips and shook his head: "He is not as good as me. This guy is often beaten." After that, he hurriedly asked me: "No, how did you meet him? Were you a former classmate?"
"He is my cousin, and his father is my uncle."
Xiaopang looked confused: "My uncle?"
"Um."
"Holy shit, you two are cousins. It's supposed to be pretty solid. Why did this guy turn around and leave as soon as he saw you, as if he didn't know you?"
"I don't have a good relationship with him."
With that said, I got up and walked towards Ma Tao, intending to chat with him.
Xiaopang originally planned to go over with me, but after taking only two steps, he went back and reminded me in a low voice: "I won't go over. He had a problem with the third person in the bathing department. The third person warned the others before. People, beat anyone who comes close to him, you'd better not chat with him for too long."
Of course I wouldn't take Fatty's reminder seriously.
When I walked to Ma Tao, I sat directly opposite him.
Ma Tao looked up at me and said calmly: "I'm out of prison."
"Um."
He still likes the yin and yang of me just like he did back then: "Tsk, tsk, the three best students back then, the good prospects of Tsinghua and Peking University, are now the waiters of KTV like me. How does it feel? Isn't it quite refreshing?"
I smiled and said, "No, you are so petty. After all these years, do you still hold grudges? I am also your cousin after all. We are relatives. How can you be yin and yang with me when we meet?"
"I'm not holding a grudge, I just want to bring you to my parents and ask them what's the point of studying well. They used to criticize me for my academic performance. What's the result?"
I didn't continue to argue with him about this. I asked him: "I heard that my uncle is sick now. What is wrong with him?"
Ma Tao said simply: "Kidney failure caused by uremia requires a kidney transplant."
"That's okay. After a kidney transplant, everything will be fine. I knew someone in prison who had a kidney transplant. He was almost the same as a normal person, with no impact."
The person I'm talking about is actually my senior master. He had a kidney transplant because of uremia. However, he was in a high-ranking position and the surgery was performed by foreign doctors, so the effect may be better.
Ma Tao snorted softly: "Stop being so hypocritical. We broke up with you after your parents divorced. I'm afraid you already hate us."
I nodded: "To be honest, when my mother first abandoned me, I did hate you, but I don't feel anything now."
He lowered his head and took a mouthful of food, and then asked me: "Why did you come to see me?"
"It's nothing, just thinking that we are old cousins and came over to say hello and have a chat."
"Then you'd better stop talking to me. I've offended a lot of people. If you get close to me, someone will beat you up."
"I just heard what Xiaopang said."
"Then you are still coming?"
"The main reason is that just like you, I offended a lot of people when I first came here, so we can be considered brothers in distress."
Ma Tao looked up at me and said after a moment of silence: "Don't be too arrogant. This is Royal International. To put it bluntly, it is normal to kill several people. You have just come to work and you should keep a low profile." Come on, don't cause trouble everywhere. If you get hacked to death one day, you won't know who did it. Don't think that just because you have been in jail for a few years, you can show off everywhere. In front of rich and powerful people, You are just a little ant."
I smiled: "What about you, you know this place is not good, why do you still work here? And I heard Xiaopang said that you will be beaten for three days."
"I have no choice but to raise money to give my dad a life-saving kidney transplant."
"How much does it cost for my uncle to have a kidney transplant?" I asked.
He didn't answer me, but asked without raising his head: "What, your nephew is going to save your uncle? Is he going to kidnap and extort to make a fortune again?"
To be honest, if someone else was so yin and yang to me, I would have damn well scolded them.
But he is my cousin after all, and I can feel that he must have been quite miserable in the past few years. I can even smell a trace of my past in him.
In addition, the words he just talked to me, although they don't sound good, are quite true, not hypocritical or pretentious.
I smiled and said, "When I was in the most difficult time, your dad wouldn't even let me enter your house. Because of this, I didn't bother to save him. Of course, I could also do it for my uncle and nephew's sake." Yes, it’s fun to take a few thousand dollars, but it definitely won’t solve the problem, right?”
Ma Tao laughed self-deprecatingly: "A few thousand dollars won't solve the problem, but it can still make our family sick."
"You still don't think that I came here to chat with you to disgust you, do you?"
"It doesn't matter to me what you're here for."
I took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket and handed him one.
He didn't show any politeness to me and took it and put it on his ear.
Then I said: "I just want to help you for the sake of our relatives. If you are willing to hang out with me and sincerely treat your old cousin, your father's kidney transplant cost is nothing to me." question."
"Fuck you?" He then raised his head and glanced at me disdainfully: "When you were good at studying, you were still qualified to say this. Now you are just a stinky waiter like me. How can you have the nerve to say this? ?”
I lit up the cigarette and took a puff, then smiled and said: "I don't expect you to agree now, and this is not a place where I collect rags. I don't want anyone. I want to observe you for a while to see if you are qualified." , I figured it out later and came to me, I hope my brother-in-law can survive for a few more days, at least until the day you come to me."
After saying these words, I stood up and walked towards Xiaopang.
Ma Tao also put down the word "idiot" behind his back.
After I went back and sat down, Xiaopang asked me curiously while eating: "So, what did you talk about with your old cousin? I don't think his face looks good."
"Eat your food and don't pry into other people's affairs."
Xiaopang curled his lips: "I'm not surprised to hear it!"
After dinner, Xiaopang and I went to work in the KTV department. The class went smoothly that day, and nothing happened.
Maybe tomorrow is the weekend and there are a lot of customers today. Anyway, we were busy until two or three o'clock and the number of people started to decrease. After leaving a few people on duty, we got off work.
Xiaopang and I naturally came to the bathing department again, intending to "catch up on old times" with Wang Hao.
When we were in the elevator, Xiaopang said to me with a smile: "If the front desk arranges for you to come in and play again today, don't turn it away again. It's really impossible to let me go in to play. Anyway, you said you would invite me before." For play."
I smiled and said, "I'll invite you to play again in a few days."
"why?"
"I've only known you for a day, and I don't know you very well. If I think you can get along with me as a friend, I will definitely invite you."
"Damn it, I've treated you with all my heart, and even helped you deceive Brother Hei and Ma Gan, and now you actually think that I'm a friend you can't get along with?"
"Why, you don't accept it, don't you?"
"I..." Xiaopang snorted: "Can't I just accept it? I..."
As soon as he said this, the elevator door opened.
At the elevator door, a few people happened to be coming in. I recognized the leader at a glance. He was Wang Hao.
After not seeing each other for a few years, Wang Hao looks more mature and oily.
He didn't notice Xiaopang and I at that time, he just led his people to the elevator, chatting some dirty jokes while walking.
At this time, Xiaopang also took the initiative to call him Brother Hao, which was regarded as saying hello to Wang Hao, but Wang Hao just glanced at Xiaopang lightly, without even nodding his head at Xiaopang. Obviously, in the eyes of others, Xiaopang was just that. Like air.
After Wang Hao and his people squeezed into the elevator, I smiled and said, "Hey, Brother Hao is doing well now. With this suit and tie, he looks like a real person."
