Chapter 200: Roommate Returning Home (2)
In a flash, a brilliant idea was born.
Luo Hao straightened his wrinkled clothes and cuffs, then lay back leisurely, leaning against the leather seat.
"Xiao Yang, you are a filial child, and I understand your difficulties."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang immediately raised his head, staring at Luo Hao with clear eyes, and asked in disbelief:
"Mr. Luo? What do you mean?"
Luo Hao said with a wry smile: "Not only can I give you 500,000, I can also help you with all the medical expenses for your mother."
"Thank you, Mr. Luo! Thank you, Mr. Luo! Thank you so much! My mother and I will always remember your kindness. If there's anything you need me to do for you, I'll go through fire and water to repay you!"
Luo Hao's eyes were full of mystery, and he rubbed his chin with his right hand. It seemed like God was helping him.
Since the other party came to him on his own initiative, he certainly wouldn't be polite.
"There's something I need your help with right now."
"Just say it!" Xiao Yang replied quickly.
"I was coming back from my hometown last night when I bumped into a stray dog on the road. I got out of the car, took a look at the dog, and then left." Luo Hao sighed, "If only I had looked more carefully, I would have spotted the woman in the field next to me..."
Xiao Yang's expression changed immediately, and some bad thoughts started to clamor in his mind.
"Xiao Yang, you can't do this. If the police ask, just say you drove me back home last night. I can testify for you that neither of us saw that woman, otherwise we wouldn't have stood by and watched her die."
Xiao Yang gasped, his mouth slightly open.
"You mean... let me?" Xiao Yang pointed at his face with his right hand in confusion.
Luo Hao knew that the other party had understood what he meant, and his expression became very gentle and he nodded gently.
Xiao Yang's heart was in a mess and he fell silent for a while.
Luo Hao took advantage of the victory and said sincerely:
"Don't worry, I will do my best to appease the young woman's family. No matter how much compensation they want, I will pay it. And your mother, I will definitely send someone to take good care of her. You know that sick people need careful care."
Xiao Yang thought of his mother lying on the hospital bed waiting for him to raise medical expenses, tears welled up in his eyes and he groaned from his chest.
"Ah."
Luo Hao's mouth stretched from ear to ear. This was the first time he escaped legal punishment.
Five years ago today, he made the same mistake again.
Moreover, he once again turned his attention to Xiao Yang, the driver who was rehired by the company.
Xiao Yang originally didn't want to take the blame for others again, but thinking of Luo Hao's previous kindness, he worried day and night.
All of this was seen by his mother, and under her repeated questioning, Xiao Yang told the truth.
After Yang's mother learned about what happened that year, she threatened to commit suicide to force Xiao Yang to surrender to the police and tell the truth about what happened that year.
Xiao Yang was already extremely ashamed, and after being scolded by his mother, he turned himself in to the nearest police station that night.
Luo Hao has committed two drunk driving and hit-and-run accidents, and he will be subject to legal sanctions.
……
The timeline returns to the live broadcast room.
Xiao Xie, Jingjing and Qiqi drove to No. 107 Miaojia Village.
The house was being renovated. Paint, sand, and construction materials were piled up at the door, and there was a pungent smell in the air.
Xiao Xie felt like vomiting. She covered her nose, pulled Jingjing and Qiqi's arms, shrunk her neck and said:
"Jingjing Qiqi, who of you two will go knock on the door?"
Jingjing and Qiqi turned around at the same time and rolled their eyes at Xiao Xie, then dragged Xiao Xie to the front door.
"Boom boom boom!"
The knock on the door sounded particularly loud in the quiet night.
After a few minutes, no one came out.
"Boom boom boom!"
Xiao Xie knocked impatiently, as if he wanted to smash a hole in the door.
A few minutes later, a sharp female voice came from inside the house:
"Here I come! Who's knocking on my door so late at night?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened.
A middle-aged woman in pink strawberry pajamas appeared behind the door, sizing up the three of them with a pair of shrewd eyes:
"Who are you?" Her voice sounded a little quieter than before.
Xiao Xie was like a quail, and his momentum instantly weakened.
She was completely different from the female warrior who had just banged on the door crazily. She said in a trembling voice:
"I...we are..."
Jingjing stood up and said, "Let's go find Pan Di."
The middle-aged woman's expression changed immediately and she stood up straight.
She looked at the three of them warily and spoke cautiously:
"What do you want to do with Pan Di?" The hand on the door tightened unconsciously.
Qi Qi noticed the middle-aged woman's reaction, her little brain working rapidly, and she smiled and said:
"Auntie, Pandi has always had excellent academic performance. This time, she won a national scholarship from her school, but the teacher couldn't contact her, so they asked us to send the money over."
"Oh, I see."
Xiao Xie looked at Qi Qi in shock, and opened his mouth: "No..."
Jingjing quickly covered Xiao Xie's mouth and made her swallow the rest of the words.
When the middle-aged woman heard that the three of them were there to give her money, her attitude immediately changed and she warmly welcomed them in.
"Come on! Come in! It's very cold in the country at night!"
Xiao Xie didn't care whether it was cold or not, she just wanted to see Pan Di.
"Auntie, is Pan Di at home?" she asked, chasing after the middle-aged woman.
"Don't worry, just follow me in first."
The middle-aged woman walked into the house, followed closely by the three girls.
The house was bigger than they had imagined. The living room was almost decorated and fully furnished.
But the most eye-catching thing is the big red "喜" character that covers the entire room.
This house looks like a wedding house.
[This is the wedding room. Didn't you see the two big red lanterns at the door just now?]
[It was too dark, I really couldn't see it. I'm 600 degrees nearsighted...]
As Jingjing walked into the door, she felt that the room was decorated in a festive manner, as if a wedding was about to take place.
Suddenly, she took Qiqi's hand, leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"Qiqi, do you think Pan Di's family is very festive?"
Qi Qi nodded affirmatively, she had noticed it a long time ago.
The middle-aged woman asked them to sit down on the chairs in the living room and said, "Pandi is not at home today. Just give me the money." Then she handed the teacup in her hand to the three of them.
When the three heard what the middle-aged woman said, their doubts grew even more intense.
Since Pan Di is not at home, why bother welcoming the three of them into the house? Wouldn't it be better to just tell them Pan Di's address?
Xiao Xie was already so anxious that he couldn't sit still any longer: "Where is Pan Di? Let's go find her now!"
