Before the two of them reached the inner house, they saw a man dressed as a young master walking towards them, looking like he was about to go out.
"Um?"
When the man dressed as a young master saw Xiao Yuhong leading Liu Shen, he blocked the road and asked, "Xiao Yuhong, didn't my sister say that she hasn't seen any outsiders recently? Why are you still bringing outsiders into your home?"
"Return to the table, young master..."
Xiao Yuhong lowered her head and explained: "Brother Shen is a good friend of the young mistress, not an outsider. It was the young mistress who asked me to pick up brother Shen to visit the master."
"Oh~"
When the young master heard this, he closed the folding fan in his hand and seemed to be a different person. He held his hands and smiled and said: "Since you are my sister's friend, you are also my friend. Pei Hongyu, please be polite."
Liu Shen saw this man's attire and the superficial appearance of his face. He inexplicably thought of Zhang Shichen, who he had killed a few days ago. He was no longer interested in chatting with him. He just cupped his hands and said, "I heard that Mr. Song is seriously ill. If we go to visit, we won’t delay Young Master Biao much."
After saying that, he gave Xiao Yuhong a wink and motioned for her to continue leading the way.
And Pei Hongyu saw that his warm face was touching his cold butt, and the other party didn't even pass on his name. He clearly looked down on himself and looked a little embarrassed...
Seeing the two of them walking away, he snorted disdainfully, and then thought that the money he had obtained from his sister was enough for a few bets, so he opened the folding fan and went out with a smile.
"Brother Shen..."
Xiao Yuhong glanced back and saw the figure walking away, so she lowered her voice and said, "This young mistress's brother is not a good person."
"oh?"
Liu Shen raised his eyebrows: "Why do you say this?"
"This man loves gambling..."
Xiao Yuhong said quietly: "In the past few days since he came, he has asked Mistress privately for money several times."
"Young lady gave it to him?"
"The young mistress is kind-hearted, but she has been very busy these days, and the person asking for money is a younger brother. The young mistress can't say much, so she only advises him not to engage in gambling. He always agrees, but I know Every time he goes out after taking the young lady's money, he goes to the gambling house."
"knew…"
Liu Shen nodded with his eyes moving slightly. When he saw that he had entered the inner house, he whispered again: "Don't say this to others. If you don't ask, young lady, just pretend that you can't see her."
"Yeah..."
Xiao Yuhong nodded obediently.
When Liu Shen walked into Mr. Song's room, he saw Pei Xueyan with a haggard look on his face. Beside him, there was a middle-aged couple, who looked like the so-called 'mother's family'.
Doctor Zhang was taking Mr. Song's pulse at the bedside, while Yuan Xiaofei stood behind him cautiously.
At this time, Mr. Song, who was lying on the bed, had a sallow complexion, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, and he seemed to be as thin as a handful of bones.
"Brother Shen..."
Yuan Xiaofei looked at the door frequently and subconsciously called out after seeing Liu Shen. Then he seemed to realize something and covered his mouth in silence.
Pei Xueyan looked a little happy when she saw Liu Shen coming here, but more of it was aggrieved. She snorted and turned her cheek away from him.
When her parents saw Liu Shen, they looked at him curiously, but didn't say much.
Liu Shen also knew that it was difficult to explain to Pei Xueyan at this time, so he walked to Dr. Zhang beside the hospital bed and asked softly: "Doctor Zhang, how is the old man's health?"
"..."
Doctor Zhang glanced at him, sighed and shook his head without saying anything more.
And Liu Shen looked at Mr. Song, who was so thin that he was reduced to a handful of bones, and understood what he meant. It was just that the old man was old and the time was almost up...
At this moment, Mr. Song, who was lying on the bed, seemed to hear something. He tilted his head and looked at Liu Shen, grabbed his hand tremblingly, and murmured his lips as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't. I have the strength but still can't say it out loud.
Seeing the puzzled look on Liu Shen's face, Doctor Zhang explained softly: "The old man can no longer see, and now he has almost no energy to speak."
Liu Shen felt uncomfortable hearing this. When he saw Mr. Song holding his hand as if he had something to say, he hurriedly bent down in front of him. Only then did he hear a breathy voice: "Yes...it's Quan'er." ?”
"..."
Liu Shen saw that the old man was still thinking about his late son when he arrived, and the tip of his nose was sore. He couldn't even open his mouth to break the old man's fantasy...
When Mr. Song saw that he didn't speak, he held his hand and touched his joints. He whispered with his lips: "You...are you Liu Shen?"
"right…"
Seeing that the old man guessed who he was, Liu Shen was relieved and said with a smile: "Old man, I am Liu Shen. The junior you hate is here to see you."
"Hehehe~"
Mr. Song grabbed his hand and laughed "haha". He seemed to have regained his energy and said breathlessly: "Tell... tell the others to get out. I have something to say to you."
"Okay! Master, please wait a moment!"
Liu Shen turned around and saw Pei Xueyan looking over. The two looked at each other and seemed to understand each other's thoughts.
Pei Xueyan stood up and said, "Father, mother, Doctor Zhang, Xiaofei, Xiaohong, let's all go out. The old man has something to tell Liu Shen."
Pei Xueyan, Doctor Zhang, Yuan Xiaofei, and Yu Hong are all familiar with Liu Shen, so they naturally have no objection;
Although Pei Xueyan's parents were a little curious, they also knew that Mr. Song was not dead yet and they were still 'outsiders', so they couldn't say much.
The group of people went out and closed the door...
Liu Shen leaned next to Mr. Song and said softly: "Old man, there are only two of us left in the room now. If you have anything you want to say to me, just tell me!"
When Mr. Song heard that the group had gone out, he showed a bit of anger and disgust on his face. He muttered something on his lips as if he wanted to tell Liu Shen something, but he couldn't take a breath and couldn't speak.
The more Mr. Song couldn't speak, the more anxious he became. The more anxious he became, the more he panted. The more he panted, the more he couldn't speak.
"Master, don't be impatient, take your time, take your time..."
Upon seeing this, Liu Shen hurriedly helped him calm down and said: "I can probably guess what you want to explain. I will guess first. Now if I guess correctly what you want to explain, you can nod. If I guess wrong, you can Just shake your head, this will save you all the effort, okay?"
Mr. Song nodded slightly when he heard this, and no longer struggled to speak.
Liu Shen was relieved when he saw this. He leaned next to Mr. Song and said softly, "Is the thing you always want to explain related to the Song family's business?"
Mr. Song nodded first, then shook his head.
Seeing this, Liu Shen realized something. He glanced outside the door with his peripheral vision and asked again: "You always nodded first and then shook your head, but what you want to explain has something to do with the young mistress?"
Mr. Song nodded...
"But it has something to do with the young mistress's mother's family?"
Mr. Song still nodded...
"Are you worried that the Song family's property will be taken over by the young mistress's natal family?"
Mr. Song nodded vigorously and held his hand a little tighter. It was obvious that Liu Shenzhi's words were what he was thinking!
"Mr. Song, don't worry..."
Liu Shen patted the old man's hand and said comfortingly: "Even an old man like you lying on the hospital bed can see that they want to occupy the magpie's nest. How can I, Liu Shen, not see it?"
When Mr. Song heard this, he shook his head miserably, as if he felt distressed, and just pinched his palm...
Seeing this, Liu Shen seemed to have guessed something, and sighed and asked, "Are you worried about my mistress?"
Mr. Song nodded sadly...
"rest assured."
Liu Shen took a long, relieved breath and said, "The young lady has a kind heart and is bound by family ties. It is indeed easy for her to be deceived by them."
He paused and then said seriously: "Old man, you may not know that just a few days ago, the Chishui Gang was wiped out, and I personally killed his son Zhang Shichen in front of Zhang Wannian."
"As for me, I am now the deputy hall master of the Qingsha Gang Pier Hall, and my martial arts is close to the second level..."
"I'm not telling you this to show off, but I want to tell you that now I have the ability to solve the things you have been worrying about! You just need to have a good attitude and don't worry!"
“Those who use force to suppress others are despicable, and those who use force to suppress others are heroic!”
"I learned this from you, my elder. I will remember this favor!"
"Don't worry, old man..."
"As long as I, Liu Shen, am still alive, there is no way they can take away any of the Song family's property from my young mistress!"
