185 Are You His Father? (2/2)
Upon sighting the ID and getting a clear look at Liu Tieguo's date of birth, the female cop got really embarrassed. Her face immediately flushed liver red. She quickly apologized, ”S-sorry, I-I misunderstood…”
”Hmmph!”
Liu Tieguo angrily returned his identity card to his pocket.
Xiao Luo was amused. He couldn't remember the last time he was mistaken for being the son of someone else.
At that moment, the male cop asked, ”Mr. Liu, what is your relationship with Mr. Xiao?”
”We're totally unrelated. I'm just a passer-by. I sent him to the hospital as I saw him lying unconscious on the ground.”
Liu Tieguo raised his chin to the left and snorted, ”Oh yeah, since uncle cop, and aunty cop is already here, there will be no need for I, Lei Feng, to remain.” He turned to Xiao Luo, ”Old brother, the ravioli I bought you is on the table. Eat it while it's still hot. If it isn't convenient for you to do it yourself, ask uncle cop and aunty cop to feed you. You know, they are government servants. They should do this kind of stuff. I'm leaving, so bye!”
He had intentionally emphasized the words, uncle, and aunty. He was obviously just being sarcastic. Then, he turned away without looking back. He was in a mood of melancholy. He got called 'old brother' because his face looked like it was in a hurry to age, and what's worst, he got mistaken as the father of a 26-year-old man. What the hell was going on in his life?
The two cops took on an awkward expression, but they were thinking, ”Well, you looked old, how could you blame us?”
...
...
Zhang Dashan rushed over as soon as he received the news. His rough voice preceded his entrance.
”Xiao Luo, Old Xiao…”
He pushed the door open. When he saw Xiao Luo, who was on the bed wrapped like a mummy, he ran over hurriedly, ”Are you Xiao Luo?”
”Who else can I be?” Xiao Luo replied brusquely.
”What the f*ck, which quack wrapped you up like this? Aside from your mouth, nose, and eyes, you are all… wrapped up! How to pee and sh*t like this?” Zhang Dashan put down his briefcase, making a point to daringly yelled the word 'quack' inside the hospital.
”Shut up and pay up my medical bills,” Xiao Luo said in mock anger.
”What's the hurry? Let me ask you, did the Dragon Gang did this?” asked Zhang Dashan.
Xiao Luo nodded.
”F*ck. I really want those bastard's dead!” Zhang Dashan gritted his teeth.
”Enough, just take care of Luo's Workshop for me, alright? Don't worry about the other stuff.”
Xiao Luo advised him, knowing he meant every word of it. Then he was reminded of Feng Wuhen and his companions, ”Consider Feng Wuhen and rest working for me. You mustn't mistreat them in terms of wages. When I finally destroy the Dragon Gang, you have to recruit them back to the company and give them a chance to train and improve themselves. Only in that way can they be given high posts when Luo's Workshop expands to the other cities.”
”Old Xiao, you better settle these things yourself after you get better. Your priority now should be to take care of your injuries.” Saying that Zhang Dashan took his briefcase and went to settle his medical expenses.
Funnily, Xiao Luo suddenly thought of Liu Tieguo, who had brought him to the hospital.
If he were to let Zhang Dashan know that there was someone with a bigger and chubbier face than him, he should feel very comforted.
Then his mind wandered to yesterday's car crash.
A cold glint emerged within Xiao Luo's eyes. Da Yuan was dead, and Leng Bao, who got away, had now made his way into his must-kill list.
