[89] Gold is not exchanged(1/2)
"Hello, the total is three yuan and sixty cents. Okay, just right. Thank you. Welcome to visit next time!"
In the fruit shop, Chen Xiong took the money handed over by the woman with a smile.
The woman immediately walked away.
this……
Seeing this scene, Lin Fei felt that his outlook on life had been refreshed.
Oh my god.
It's really hard to believe.
Chen Xiong, who had previously bullied the weak and feared the strong, was extremely arrogant...
Now he is helping to sell things with a smile on his face.
The prodigal son returns?
Mainly, Lin Fei couldn't imagine that this was Chen Xiong.
Besides, even if it's just a coincidence, there's no need for it to be such a coincidence, right?
What if Chen Xiongru is really acting on occasion?
So, who is he acting for?
Lin Fei didn't think it was for him, so it was obviously unnecessary.
"Hello, kid, do you... know Chen Xiong?"
"oh?"
But when Lin Fei was thinking, the woman who was about to leave saw Lin Fei.
Looking at the woman, Lin Fei nodded, then shook his head.
"Not too familiar."
"Giggle."
The woman smiled and said.
"Really? But to be honest, I wasn't familiar with him before. On the contrary, I was quite disgusted with a gangster like him. But recently, he seems to have changed his temper. He is kind to others, and he also takes care of the food and clothing of this shop owner.
The daily life really impressed me, oh, I won’t talk about it anymore, I have to go back.”
"..."
recent?
It seems that it has not been a day or two since Chen Xiong came here?
Lin Fei fell into deep thought.
"Xiao Chen, is that your brother? I have been waiting here for a long time, and there is no one in the store now. You go to accompany me and decorate the fruits."
"I……"
Inside the store.
Chen Xiong hesitated when he heard what the boss said.
How can this be his younger brother?
This was my original enemy...
Chen Xiong really didn't expect that Lin Fei lived nearby, and he only came here... huh?
Seeing Lin Fei purse his lips, Chen Xiong hesitated again and again and finally nodded.
After saying hello to the boss, he walked out. As for the fruit?
I didn't bring it with me at all.
possible……
Don’t know if I should bring it?
…
There is a small park not far from the community with not many facilities. It is cold now and almost no one comes.
On a bench.
Chen Xiong: "Why are you here?"
Lin Fei: "My family lives here, but you, why are you here too?"
Chen Xiong: "..."
The two sat down.
This scene seems a bit inconsistent.
An adult seems extremely embarrassed in front of a five-year-old child.
"Where are your brothers?"
Seeing that Chen Xiong didn't speak for a long time, Lin Fei spoke first.
Chen Xiong smiled bitterly: "It's over."
"Oh why?"
"Because I don't want to work anymore. As you can see, I am now an ordinary fruit shop clerk. In the current wave of layoffs, I can't find a job, so I can only choose this kind of job. I can earn one month a month."
A hundred dollars is enough to survive."
"Wash your hands in a golden basin?"
"It's hard to talk about it. It can only be regarded as... a change of heart?"
Chen Xiong laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Since you and Wu Dongzi took care of me last time, I went to take care of Ma San and then returned home. I didn't sleep all night and thought a lot. The next day I decided not to be a gangster."
"Why did you choose this job?"
Lin Fei asked.
"Maybe it's for conscience? I came here half a year ago. At that time, I robbed the boss of some oranges and ate them without giving me any money. At that time, I saw the desperate but unable to stop look in the boss's eyes. I felt quite happy at the time, but now I think
Think? I’m such a bastard!”
"..."
Lin Fei did not respond.
It seems that Chen Xiong has really changed a lot.
"Hey, um..."
Lin Fei hesitated.
After a long time, he finally spoke.
"Are you...willing to live your life now?"
"Be willing, but not willing."
"oh?"
Such an answer made Lin Fei a little surprised.
"Why do you say that?" Lin Fei asked curiously.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Chen Xiong smiled.
Put your hands in your pockets and take out a cigarette.
The ignition of "Crack!"
Chen Xiong just smoked silently.
After a long time, I finally breathed out.
"I am willing to live my current life because I know that I am atoneing for my sins of being stupid and being looked down upon and even bullied over the past few years."
"I'm not willing to accept that those 'brothers' who once called me brothers, who were known as swordsmen and fire, left me after I said I wanted to change my mind. They are a bunch of bastards! All they care about is money and enjoyment!"
"Ah!"
The corners of the mouth are raised.
Lin Fei smiled.
"What? Are you just discovering that evil and false vanity now? But... it's not too late."
"I……"
Chen Xiong stopped talking, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
To be continued...
