Mecha Journey

"I have to keep you alive!"

Yu Wenqiu's roaring voice sounded in the reception room, like a young lion whose mane had not yet darkened, roaring out its first powerful roar, which immediately stunned everyone, and everyone's eyes were focused on this A young man with a handsome face but an unusually firm tone.

Director Ma, who had been trying to break up the fight, also sighed deeply at this moment, slowly loosened his grip on Yu Wenhong's waist, and stood aside.

"You...what did you say?" Yu Wenhong, who was standing in front of Yu Wenqiu, stopped moving and asked with a trembling body, and the expression on his face became a little stiff.

Yu Wenqiu forcefully shook off the two investigators who were holding him down, and knelt on the ground with his legs disheveled and his face flushed.

Yu Wenqiu looked at the dazzling floor illuminated by the sun. The light shone in his eyes, and something shiny was flashing.

"Four years ago, my mother died of infection after a kidney transplant. You couldn't do anything because you transplanted a kidney to your mother. Your family's savings were all spent on treating her."

"You become depressed day by day. You drink all day long. You fall asleep drunk and continue drinking when you wake up."

"At that time, Uncle Ma asked me to come here to study in high school. I didn't want to come at all, because... I wanted to go out and do something early, improve my family's conditions, and pay off my debts."

"But you drunkenly agreed and were very happy. That was the first time I saw you smile after my mother passed away, so I came here because... I think that's what you want to see."

Yu Wenqiu paused in his words, seeming to be struggling with something.

"But then, you still lived in a haze every day, staying at home and drinking all day long."

"You drank yourself until your stomach bleeds. I called Uncle Ma in the middle of the night and sent you to the hospital."

When Yu Wenqiu said this, he suddenly looked up at his father, seeming to have made a huge determination.

"But do you know what the doctor told me? He said that you had a gastric perforation, and because of your already weak constitution, the condition was much more serious than the average person. The doctor told me that if you want to recover like this, you have to spend a lot of money on an expensive diet. A medicine to protect the gastric mucosa."

"Otherwise there will be another stomach bleeding, and you will..." When Yu Wenqiu said this, he choked up and blocked his next words.

"Do you know how much a bottle of the medicine I urge you to take every morning and night costs?"

"A bottle of that medicine costs two thousand yuan, but one bottle only lasts a week!"

"Your retirement allowance can only cover two weeks, but what about the remaining two weeks? I have to find money for you, buy you medicine, and keep you alive."

"But as a student, I can't make that much money even if I work odd jobs on construction sites!"

"What can I do? I can only do something disgraceful!"

"Don't I know those things are illegal?"

"Why did I come back to repeat the exam? Is it because I failed the exam? No!"

"I have no choice. I have to come back and save you enough money for medicine for the next year. Then I can go to school so that you can be proud of me and live!"

"But where can I save money? If you don't let me do this, where can I find medicine for you?! How can I let you live!!"

"You're all I have left!!"

"I have to keep you alive! So I can live!!"

The veins on Yu Wenqiu's forehead swelled, and his face was bulging and red. He punched his chest with his right hand and roared out all the bitterness and pain in the young man's heart that he had never told others.

Yang Mu, who was standing outside the door, lowered his head at some point while listening to this, and the expression on his face became a little unnatural.

People in the room also lowered their heads.

"Xiaoqiu, didn't you say that that kind of medicine only costs a thousand yuan a month? You...why are you hiding it from...uncle?" Director Ma, who was standing next to Yu Wenhong, said with a trembling tone at this time, with a look on his face. He looked at Yu Wenqiu who was kneeling on the ground with distress.

"Uncle Ma, I really can't cause you any more trouble. You've put me through so much trouble, and it's not easy for you either. I can't... let you pay any more money." Yu Wenqiu looked at Director Ma, Said tremblingly.

Yu Wenqiu sniffed, turned his head back to look at the ground in front of him, and said softly: "Dad, I'm done. You want to hit or scold him, it's up to you."

The words rang out, but there was no response, and the whole room was silent.

After a long time...

"thump."

A pair of knees appeared in front of Yu Wenqiu, who was also kneeling on the ground.

Yu Wenqiu looked up in surprise, only to see his father's face stained with tears, showing his age.

"Xiaoqiu...Dad...It's useless...I can't save your mother, and I can't let you live a good life..."

At this moment, looking at his father who was so thin due to injuries, Yu Wenqiu couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and burst out of his eyes.

"Xiaoqiu... Dad is sorry for you." Yu Wenhong grabbed his pants with his thin hands and cried softly.

"Dad..." Yu Wenqiu rushed forward, hugged his father, and cried out in pain. The entire reception room was filled with the cries of father and son.

Everyone present was secretly wiping tears.

The fierce-looking Captain Qiu was also a little moved after seeing all this. He stepped forward and wanted to say something sorry, but Director Ma who was standing aside suddenly exploded. He usually looked at a few Director Ma, who was very kind, pushed Captain Qiu away, glaring at him with red eyes.

"Madeh! You surnamed Qiu, get out of here!"

"Don't think that our old company commander is easy to bully! My old company commander is also a hard-blooded man! If I get pressed, I will call a group of old comrades and give you a good beating!"

"Now! Please! Get out of here!" Director Ma waved his hand, pointed at the door, and said fiercely.

Captain Qiu showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and moved his mouth, but still didn't say anything. He lowered his head and turned around and walked out. The other investigators followed suit and retreated from the reception room...

"Hello."

Captain Qiu walked out of the door and was about to go down the stairs when he was stopped by Yang Mu who was standing next to the reception room.

Captain Qiu turned his head and looked at a black-haired student in school uniform standing by the door, confused.

Yang Mu sniffed, exhaled, raised his head and looked out the window, and slowly said to Captain Qiu not far away on the left.

"Sir, no matter how valid your reasons may be to pick up a man's scars."

Yang Mu paused for a moment and turned to look at Investigator Qiu at the stairs.

"But I just want to tell you one thing."

“Don’t always act with prejudice, whether you do it intentionally or not!”

Yang Mu's voice was sonorous and powerful, ringing in the empty corridor. Captain Qiu and Yang Mu looked at each other, and they felt a hint of majesty in the eyes of the student in front of them. Captain Qiu's heart skipped a beat, and the corner of his mouth twitched. With an awkward smile, he responded to Yang Mu's words, then put on his hat and hurried downstairs.
