Chapter 467 (1/2)
In the first half of the night, the sweat soaked the clothes. In the second half of the night, the wet clothes pasted on the body, cold and uncomfortable.
Li Yuanwu carefully got up and looked at Li Xian sleeping on the side. Worried that he might catch a cold at night, he took off his coat and gently draped it over him.
”Dad, I didn't sleep.” Li Xian suddenly said in a deep voice, then threw down his coat and put it aside.
Li Yuanwu was startled by the sudden sound. He immediately reacted and sighed silently. In this case, it's really incredible if you can sleep in.
”Xian'er, aren't you really going overseas with me?” after a while, Li Yuanwu asked carefully.
Li Xian obviously twitched, clenched his teeth and said, ”I'd rather die in Lingang than hide overseas like a dog for a lifetime!”
Li Yuanwu looked gloomy, and the color of struggle slowly appeared on his face. It took four or five minutes to gradually calm down. His back leaned against the wall covered with spider webs, and his voice was dull and abnormal: ”xian'er, dad has something to say to you.”
As a father, Li Yuanwu tried his best to bring Li Xian back. It is true that he is greedy for life and afraid of death, but it is because of this that he sees through Li Xian's futile struggle. However, Li Yuanwu believed his son too much. He didn't realize that he couldn't mention some words in the face of Yu Xian.
Inadvertently, he had sounded the death knell for his own death.
He reached out and touched his pocket. Li Yuanwu took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, pulled out a wrinkled cigarette and held it in his mouth.
Then he took it out of his pants pocket and didn't find the lighter. He simply kept holding the cigarette in his mouth and looked up, with a faint color of memory on his face.
”Your father, I've never been serious. When I was young, I ate, drank and gambled. You should know that. I have nothing to hide. More than 20 years ago, the driver took me under the Tianshui bridge and ran into a woman.”
”I don't know if I really bumped into her. Anyway, the woman didn't hurt anything. It seemed that she twisted her foot.” Li Yuanwu laughed. ”I looked at her through the window. She looked coquettish and dressed cheap and dissolute, but both her figure and face were better than those little girls in Ledu.”
