168 Fearless (1/2)

That night, JoJo and I sit on the roof until dawn. I don't know when the two of us have fallen asleep back to back.

We talked all night and we finished all my cigarettes. Both of us smell of tobacco.

When I wake up, it's already bright. I wake up earlier than Jojo, only to feel sore and painful in my waist and spine, which is not feeling well.

When I'm moving, she's waken up. When I watch her stretch, the stiffness of her body, I judge that she's also very uncomfortable. The two of us look at each other and smile.

”I'm going back.” I look up at the sky and slowly open my mouth, ”It's already morning. I didn't go back overnight. During the day, my brothers will be worried.”

Jojo nods and says, ”I'm going back, too. I'm going to Toronto in the next two days... Well, if I had known I could meet you in Vancouver, I would not have promised Winson to accompany him to Toronto.”

”By the way, I haven't asked you why you came to Canada with Winson?”

Jojo thinks for a moment and sighs, ”It's still my dad's problem. Winson and I reached a private agreement. We weren't interested in each other, but we both pretended to be dating under the pressure from the family. This time, his family invested in a business in North America and needed him to come to an event. It seems that their family is ready to gradually hand over some of the Canadian industries to him to take care of it, anyway, I am not sure about the details. This time I followed him to meet his parents. His parents are in Toronto now. If we hadn't met you last night, we should have taken this morning's flight to Toronto.”

She says this in a very indifferent tone, but I feel a little sorry: ”I have delayed your trip... If I hadn't dragged you here all night, you would have been on the plane by now.”

”It's irrelevant.” Jojo waves her hand arrogantly: ”What's the point of meeting Winson's parents? I just go to play a role. It's boring. It's much more important to meet you. Anyway, Winson, though a little sissy, but he knows everything very well. He met you last night and both of us ran away. He should have guessed that we could not catch the flight this morning. Don't worry, he must have adjusted the arrangement. That guy is very rigid in his work. It's not interesting to have everything arranged beforehand so that everything can be done smoothly. I suspect that he even plans beforehand the times to go to the toilet every day!”

Listening to Jojo's disdainful tone, I sigh inside my heart.

In fact, I don't feel bad about Winson. I can even feel that he is kind to me. Several contacts with that fellow, especially the gambling, all felt that he seemed to have an intent to get close to me.

I have a long list of unanswered calls, all from Sophie. I think about it and delete it. I don't mean to call her back.

”Little 5, listen, I have to go to Toronto with Winson today. Anyway, I have to deal with it. But I'll be back earlier. The soonest, I'll go today and back tomorrow.”

I shake my hand quickly: ”No! Your will be too rush to affect your arrangement!”

”Cut!” Jojo's face is showing some disapprobatory expression: ”Don't mention them, If it hadn't been for them, Winson and I would not have been hard-wired together! What annoys me most is the self-righteous old people. Why do they think that they can decide the happiness of our lives? Who I want to marry, it's not their shit! I'm not their daughter-in-law. I don't need to come to their house to amuse them! I'll show my face for give them face. That's all right!”

Jojo then takes out a card and gives me: ”This is my phone number, which I used during my stay in Canada. You can you dial this number to reach me anytime. Boy, remember to call me! If you dare to play disappear once more, I'll do it the next time we meet.” She makes a ”cut” gesture with one palm fiercely.

She takes my cell phone, saves my phone number, and asks my address. I thinkl about it and tell her that I'm living in a garage of Papa 8, but she has better not go there.

Then we climb down the fire ladder, and I go down first. But the problem is that Jojo is right above my head. As soon as I look up, I can see her long legs flashing under the skirt.

To be honest, I really didn't mean to look up. But it has been noticed by her. Miss Jojo will not be polite to me! There are still more than three meters from the ground. She is so angry that she is yelling, ”Little 5, where do you look?!” After that, she is just kicking to my head.

Fortunately, my body is strong, and I make a dodge motion on the fire ladder. I turn over one heel and land steadily on the ground. Jojo slides down and immediately clenching her fist and chasing after me.

We chase happily and slowly run out of the alley. But when we get out of the entrance, I am stunned.

At the entrance of the alley, a black car is parked. Winson, in a dark suit, is standing next to the car. He's leaning lazily by the car and watching Jojo and I walk out. With a slightly calm smile the face, he raises his wrist and looks at his watch, smiles casually and says, ”I thought you'd have at least more than half an hour to come down.”

I look at him in surprise and say, ”You... Did you know we were up there? Are you waiting here long ago?”

Even Jojo stares her eyes round and asks: ”How long have you been waiting? Wouldn't you wait all night?”

”Of course not.” Winson taps his finger on the windowpane a few times. The glass slowly rolls down. The driver inside pushes the door open and comes out with a lady's cloak in his hand. He comes to Jojo and hands it to her.

”Put it on, miss. Morning temperatures in Canada are still quite low. I don't want to get on the plane with a woman who sneezes and snivels all the time. The cabin is closed. If you catch a cold, it's easy to infect me.” Winson smiles naturally, showing his white teeth.

Jojo is forget to get angry with him. There's something strange in her eyes: ”Sissy, you tell the truth, you already know we were here? How long have you been waiting here? You were not really waiting for all night, were you?”

”Of course not.” Winson laughs and then says, ”Jojo, after all, you come with me to Canada alone. Of course I'm responsible for your safety. Otherwise, how can I face your father? When you two ran out last night, I had my men following you far away. They saw you climb to the top of this building with their own eyes, and then they notified me. I know when your old friends meet again, there's a lot to talk about. I'm a person do know what's good. So I didn't bother you and let you talk. As for me, I'm certainly not foolish to wait here until dawn. I went back to the hotel last night and slept. Then I got up in the morning and took time to take a bath, swim, and have a massage. I also had a good breakfast and then changed a new dress to pick you up.”

Winson laughs confidently. But his self-confidence is not arrogant at all. On the contrary, there is a proper restraint and unruffled calm from the heart.

Then he looks at me and shakes hands with me again. His eyes are genuine, at least looks genuine: ”Chen Yang, I talked to Miss Sophie last night, and I didn't expect you would join the gang in Canada now. Well, I'm not prejudiced about gangs, but I always think they are still in their infancy. Personally, I appreciate you very much. I have already expressed this point when we first met. I just think you're a good person, and you're. It seems to have some magical power. God, I won't forget that gambling experience with you! I even thought the goddess of luck was your lover that day!” He smiles casually and indifferently, then changes a serious tone to say to me, ”I just don't think people like you should stay in the underworld. Of course, people have their own aspirations. If you want to leave one day, please remember to come to me. I will reserve a good position for you in my family business. I believe you will be very excellent.”

I give him a deep look: ”Why do you think so? I don't seem to have much talent for you, do I?”

Winson points to his heart and laughs, ”I believe in the theory that personality determines success. I appreciate your personality, so I think you will be excellent. As for the abilities, they can be acquired. But the quality of a person's nature will directly affect his achievements.”

Jojo stands aside and looks at us coldly. Suddenly she cuts in and says, ”What's your idea, sissy?”

”Jojo, just as I can never guess your mind, I will also not tell you my mind.” Winson laughs a little deeply: ”We're just acting in front of our parents and relatives, acting as the male and female protagonists in the play. We're not outside the play. If you know me too well, I'm afraid you'll fall in love with me.”

Jojo does not speak, but returns one of her middle fingers directly.

”Well, we should go now, so that we can catch up with my parents for afternoon tea.” Winson shakes hands with me and I give Jojo another hug.

”Chen Yang, remember what I said... The gang may not suit you.”

Before Jojo get in the car, she whispers to me, ”Tomorrow I'll fly back to you.”

They all get in the car, but Winson rolls down the window, laughs and tells me, ”Oh, our royal highness is very angry now. You have to be careful.”

As the car is slowly leaving, I'm standing in place and feeling a little confused.

The reunion with Jojo is totally unexpected to me. I thought I would have to endure loneliness in my heart for quite a long time, struggling alone in this strange western world.

Maybe it's because I'm too lonely and my heart is too stuffy, I had sex with Sophie so fiercely that night?

DIdi, Nanny, and all others at home…

Just leave all these alone.

I walk for a while, then stop a taxi and go back to the garage. I see a MPV is parked there at the intersection. There are two men in that MPV, pretending to be reading newspapers.

I already know. These are police. During this period, the police have taken us as a key target. It's just that the Canadian police are really uncreative. They can't hide their gaze, even a fool can see them too.

I have just returned to the garage where several brothers are changing tires for a car. Seeing me come in, and a few people I know, whistling at me, mocking the look of my dress in suit and shoes.

I see Silo in overalls carrying a bottle out. Seeing me come in, he looks a little serious, quickly comes to me and says. ”Little 5, Papa 8 wants to see you. Come in quickly.”

”What's wrong?”

”Well. It seems that something big has happened. Early this morning, a lot of big-time people came and are meeting with Papa 8. Tiger has come to find you once.”

My heart is shocking!

As soon as I reach the back yard, I see Tiger standing downstairs in Papa 8's office and waving to me.

”Little 5, go change clothes quickly!” Tiger's tone is also serious: ”Ten minutes later. Papa 8 wants to see you.”
