185
The next morning.
Outside Jiang Yuan School, Xu Taiping and Su Nian Ci stood at the bus stop.
He knew that he had a cold, and it was a severe one at that. However, Xu Taiping did not take it seriously, as he knew that a cold was just an inducement to him, and in the end, it had been left behind by his many years of bloodshed outside that caused his body to be extremely weak and weak because of a single cold.
Xu Taiping didn't want to let his body recover so quickly. At least for now, his physical problems could become an important card in his hand.
When the bus arrived, Xu Taiping got on the bus with Su Xiangzi and a group of students. There were no seats on the bus, and even though the air conditioner was on, people still felt that it was very hot and dry.
Su Xin Ci squeezed herself to the window seat and held onto the railing. Xu Taiping stood beside her, staring blankly out the window.
"If you don't want a car, you have to take a bus." Su Nian Ci suddenly said.
"It's good to be on the bus. It's fine as long as we can reach our destination." Xu Taiping smiled. These words were the same as his style of doing things. As long as he could accomplish his goal, then it didn't really matter what method he used.
Su Nian Ci glanced at the red bag in Xu Tai Ping's hand and asked, "What's inside the head?"
"Some cigarettes." Xu Taiping said.
"Bring so much? Can Zhou Nuo finish it? " Su Nian Ci asked.
"It's not just him." Xu Taiping shook his head.
Su Nian Ci stared blankly for a moment before sighing faintly.
The bus entered the city, and Su Yiyi and Xu Taiping found a stop to get off and changed into another bus heading towards the jail.
There weren't many people on this train. Both of them had seats and they headed towards the detention center.
"Officer Su help me talk to the policemen in the station later, get them to compromise and give me and Zhou Nuo more time to talk." Xu Taiping said.
"I have no objections if you do not violate the rules." Su Nian Ci said.
"That's good!" Xu Taiping smiled and nodded.
As for when he would be released, that would depend on what the Public Prosecutor's Office thought. If there was to be a prosecution, then it would be temporarily impossible for Zhou Nuo to get out of the car. If the Public Prosecutor's Office did not plan to prosecute Zhou Nuo, then Zhou Nuo would be released very soon.
After the bus stopped in front of the jail's entrance, Su Nian Ci and Xu Taiping got off the bus and walked towards the sentry pavilion.
After showing his police ID, Su Nian Ci brought Xu Taiping to a waiting room.
A forty year old prison guard named Lin Yuan received Xu Taiping and Su Xiangzi. After finding out that the two of them were looking for Zhou, Lin Yuan gave Xu Taiping face and told him to go straight to Zhou Nuo. Xu Taiping pulled Lin Yuan to the side, took out a piece of Chinese medicine from the red bag and gave it to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan looked at Su Xiangzi and realized that he was not looking at them. He smiled as he brought Zhonghua over and said to Xu Taiping, "Go on in."
"Alright." Xu Taiping nodded, bringing the leftover smoke into the iron door that Lin Yuan opened.
Not long after he left, Xu Taiping met Zhou Nuo.
Unlike the wretched Zhou Nuo at the school gate, Zhou Nuo looked very sad. He had a stubble on his beard and his face was greasy. He looked like he had lost a few lumps of weight.
He was sitting on a bench behind the iron gate, his eyes glazed over.
Xu Taiping walked up to Zhou Nuo, who looked up at him as if he had just snapped out of his reverie.
"Bro, Bro Xu." His voice was much thicker than before, and it sounded a little hoarse.
Xu Taiping put the red bag aside, then said, "The lawyer informed me yesterday that you will be able to leave very soon. The prosecution did not intend to prosecute you, and Ouyang Danni has already renounced her suit against you."
"Ah?" "Really?!" Zhou Nuo looked at Xu Taiping in shock.
"Yes." Xu Taiping nodded. Although he wasn't very good at this in Jiangyuan City, to make the Public Prosecutor's Office give up prosecuting a person who had stopped committing a crime, to make Ouyang Dannie give up prosecuting Zhou, that was not difficult.
"Thank you, Bro Xu." Zhou Nuo knelt down before Xu Taiping, kowtowing heavily to him.
Xu Taiping pushed his feet forward and put his toes on Zhou's head.
"Other than paying respects to heaven and earth and parents, don't worship others who are not important to you. I just don't want to see your life ruined, so I helped you a little. I've already settled things with Jiangyuan University. You can go back to school after you leave." Xu Taiping said.
"Bro Xu, you'll be my Bro for the rest of your life." Zhou Nuo said gratefully, "If I'm like before, I won't be human."
Don't say such words just because someone helped you. Actually, the friendship between people is very weak, you're feeling like this now, it's because you're in trouble, but when you go out and your life recovers to normal, you'll gradually forget about it. Don't have too many grateful thoughts for me, I don't need this kind of gratitude, I only helped you because we still have a little bit of friendship, that's all. Xu Taiping said indifferently.
"No matter what you say, Bro Xu, I still won't forget what happened over this period of time." Zhou Nuo said.
"Right, your father has passed through the dangerous period." Xu Taiping said, "Now that we're looking for Shen Yuan, you don't have to worry about the hospital anymore."
"Bro Xu." Zhou Nuo was sobbing nonstop, almost unable to speak.
"In the future, remember to use your money on someone who needs it more." Xu Taiping let out a sigh of melancholy, then bent down to pat Zhou Nuo's shoulder. The reason he helped Zhou Nuo was not only because he had an old relationship with her, but also because of Zhou Nuo's father.
In the past, Xu Taiping had faced the same situation as Zhou Nuo, and had been powerless to do anything at that time. He had watched helplessly as his father had been tormented and forced to leave.
Although it was useless to what had happened before, Xu Taiping felt more or less at ease.
Xu Taiping and Zhou Nuo chatted for a few days before leaving.
After Zhou Nuo was locked in here, no one came to see him, not even his family members, because his family did not know that he had been captured for kidnapping. After two days of Zhou Nuo leaving, this part of his past would be completely sealed off, and he would be able to return to his normal life, and his life would not be completely rewritten like Xu Taiping's life that year.
This should be what Xu Taiping was happy to see.
For Xu Taiping, the most important thing in living in this world was to enjoy the moment. For example, tonight, he was going with Zhou Xiaoyu to pick people from all the nightclubs in the world. Although this was to create momentum for the Palace, doing this in and of itself was a very happy thing for Xu Taiping.
Su Nian Ci did not know what Xu Taiping was thinking. She sat in the car and thought about some random things.
The bus arrived at the center of the city and stopped.
Su Yenzhi and Xu Taiping got off the bus together and had to be switched to the 15th bus before they could return to Jiangyuan University.
"Heh, isn't that Nian Ci?!" A surprised voice suddenly rang out. Upon hearing this voice, Su Nian Ci felt that it sounded somewhat familiar. Turning around, he saw a familiar face.
"Yue Rong!" Su Xiangzi was pleasantly surprised when he saw a girl not too far away who looked average, but was wearing an exquisite dress. "How could it be you?!"
"It's really you, Nian Ci!" The girl called Yue Rong held a delicate bag on her high heels and wore a beautiful sun hat. She ran over to Su Nian Ci and hugged him.
"Yuerong, it's been so many years since we last met. You look even more beautiful now!" Su Nian Ci embraced the other and said excitedly.
"No, no matter how good-looking I am, I can't compare to you. You are the school beauty of our school. I still remember how many male students purposely passed by our classroom door every morning just to see you!" She let go with a smile.
"That's because you're young and inexperienced. Right, Yue Rong, where are you going?" Su Nian Ci asked.
"Me? I'm going to do some maintenance. How about we go together? I know a clubhouse, it's pretty good! " "No," she said.
"Maintain it?" Although she was a natural born beauty, once a woman did not do professional maintenance for a long time, and only relying on her skin care products, over time, she would still be inferior to those who often did maintenance.
"Look at my skin, isn't it good?" Let's do some maintenance and chat. How great is that? We haven't seen each other in so many years. "No," she said.
"Then... "Fine." Su Nian Ci nodded. She calculated the amount of money she had should be enough to maintain her card. Furthermore, she had not seen Yue Rong for many years, so she agreed.
"Then I'll be going first. See you at school." Xu Taiping said tactfully.
"Alright, see you at school!" Su Nian Ci said.
Xu Taiping walked to the bus stop at the side, while Su Nian Ci left with Yue Rong.
