This sudden change made the originally quiet living room mess up. First, my father appeared in front of us in this way, and then my mother fainted, making me feel helpless. Fortunately, I was not the only one at home now, and there were helpers next to me. When I helped my father and the others slowly walked into the house with the help of Alang, Sister Wu and the others were already serving tea for my mother to drink, and the other one who pinched her hard, squatted aside one and a half, gently stroked my mother's chest with her hands to make her feel happy, which made my mother gradually wake up.

"Old Li, why did you do this? What's going on?" As soon as my mother came to her senses, she saw her father's miserable appearance. She couldn't help but shed tears. She cried and struggled to stand up, wanting to pounce on her father to ask what was going on. But for her health, Sister Wu and the others were full of doubts, but they finally pulled and pulled down their mother and comforted her.

At this time, my father turned around and looked at his mother with my help, opened his mouth, and said to her in an almost hoarse voice: "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet! Let's take a shower first, change our clothes, and get some food to come over. Let's talk about other things later."

Although my father's voice was not loud, it was very harsh, but I heard a hint of bitterness and anger on the side.

Next, Alang and I took our father and his assistant to the bathroom. We took them a shower first, and then took a few clean clothes to change them. Half an hour ago, we returned to the living room with our father who had a slightly better expression, and our mother calmed down at this time, secretly wiped our tears and helped our father and others to bring the food to the dining table next to us.

I guess they were starving. When the food was ready, they immediately walked to the table and picked up a bowl of rice. They didn't even have time to sit down and pulled it into their mouths. It was as if they hadn't eaten for a few days, and they almost choked. I quickly poured a glass of water for them to hand it over, and sat on the side with all their worries, watching them eat voraciously.

When they had their third bowl of rice, Zhao Yunshen and the others who received my call rushed back. As soon as they entered the door, they were very surprised when they saw my father and others' appearance. They couldn't help but want to ask what was going on. But when they saw my deep face and cold eyes sitting on the side, they put the problem in their hearts for the time being, and took a chair with tactfulness and sat aside quietly.

First, his assistant stopped after eating, and then with a "uh!", my father also put down the empty bowl and couldn't help but fill it up. He took the tissue I handed over and wiped his mouth, looked at me, reached out and said to me, "Get a cigarette."

I took out the cigarette silently, took out a piece and handed it to him, and used a lighter to light it for my father. My father held the cigarette with his fingers unaccustomed to it, and then he took a deep breath, but he was choked immediately and coughed hard. He who never smoked suddenly took such a large mouthful of cigarette, which made his face turn red.

"Take it slowly." I quickly handed over a glass of water, stood behind him and patted his back gently and said.

My father was coughing and shook his head and waved his hands. After a long time, he slowly calmed down. He saw half of the cigarette had been burned from his hands, put it gently on his lips, and started to smoke carefully.

"Dad, you guys are..." The room was so quiet that everyone looked at my father and his assistant, waiting for them to speak. But my father never spoke, burying his head and smoking the cigarette I gave him one by one, and his assistant was so stuck aside, sitting without saying a word. When I handed over the fifth cigarette, I could no longer help it and asked him carefully.

My father was just holding the cigarette to his mouth. After hearing my question, he couldn't help but trembled and held it in the air for a while. Then he slowly put the cigarette on his lips and continued to smoke. A minute later, the cigarette was finished. He snatched out the cigarette butts, raised his head and sighed to us who were sitting around him showing concern, and then he slowly said: "Hey~! We are escaping from death this time, and we almost couldn't come back to Shanghai."

"What happened?" I saw my mother sitting next to me change her face and asked her father in front of her.

"It's hard to say!" My father shook his head dullly, turned around and said to his assistant, "Xiao Zhou, tell them the passage first. I...I really don't want to say it anymore." After that, my father reached out and grabbed my cigarette, took out one, lit the fire, sat on the side and didn't say anything. But at this time, I found that a drop of water suddenly dripped from my father's lower head, which fell silently on his clothes, slowly dissipated.

"Father actually cried? How could it be?" I couldn't believe what I saw in front of me. You know, in my memory, my father has always been a very strong person. Even when he left us due to a terminal illness in my previous life, he did not shed a single tear, but instead endured the pain and left with a smile. What big thing happened? It actually made him shed tears? I suppressed my anxiety, turned my head, stared at his assistant Xiao Zhou with my eyes, waiting for his explanation.

"Woo~~~~~~~~~~~~~" Unexpectedly, before Xiao Zhou could speak, he covered his face and howled. He was over 10 years older than me, and cried like a child. He covered his face with his hands, and tears kept oozing out of his fingers like a stream.

He is not my father. Although I understand that they must have encountered a very special encounter, I was so sad, but I was eager to know the truth. Seeing that he cried like this, I couldn't help but feel angry. I stood up with a loud voice, threw it at him with a tissue, and shouted bluntly: "Cry! Cry! Cry! I'm still crying like a woman? What's the matter? You're going to be anxious to death! Why don't you tell me it quickly!!!"

Maybe my voice was too loud, and he suddenly made me stop crying. He took the tissue I threw away and wiped my face randomly. He raised his head to look at me who was angry. Then he forced himself to resist the uncontrollable sob and said to me in an intermittent voice: "Little... Xiao Li! You don't know, this time, we... give people... to others... to harm you so much! I almost... I was imprisoned in prison and I will never come back!"

"What's going on? What's going on? You'll explain it clearly right away!" I hurriedly stepped forward and stared at him in the eyes and asked him, "Didn't you and my dad go to City D to do business? A few days ago, I called and said that the infrastructure project was completed and I would go back to Shanghai after checkout. Why is it going like this now? Why are you still saying that you are imprisoned? Who is going to imprison you? Why? Did you do something illegal?"

Xiao Zhou gritted his teeth and said, "Breaking the law? Do you think we will break the law? We are all serious businessmen! You may not believe me, but you can not believe Mr. Li's character, right? You said that we are doing business, but it was because of the completion of this business that we would have been arrested. If we hadn't been smart enough to run fast, your father and I would have dug soil and smashed stones in the labor camp now!"

"What?!" I simply don't believe his words. If the business is completed, I will be arrested. I will be imprisoned in the labor camp? Who is so brave? Is there no law?

After my repeated inquiries, Xiao Zhou slowly told the story. It turned out that my father and his company took over the infrastructure project in City D. Although the entire project is not big in Shanghai, it is a very large business in City D. In order to develop the business around City D, my father took it over at a very low price and planned to use this project as a basis to build the company's reputation in City D.

Everything at the beginning was normal, and it could be said to be perfect until the end of the project. Thanks to the cooperation of the other party and under the supervision of his father, the entire project took a week in advance to complete all the operations and obtained the quality acceptance report of the local department. However, just as the project was completed and the project payment was settled, a conspiracy suddenly came to his father and others.

Originally, the project payment should have been settled five days ago, but when the father made a settlement request to the other party, the other party put the settlement date three days ago with financial issues, which was the day after the father called back. On that day, the father and Xiao Zhou arrived at the other party's office according to time and asked for settlement. The other party first politely asked his father and others to wait in the conference room, and also apologized to tell his father that the general manager was having a meeting and needed to wait for a while.

My father didn't think much about it, so he waited patiently in the conference room with Xiao Zhou. Unexpectedly, he waited for a long time and never saw their general manager from morning to three o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, my father, who had drunk a lot of tea from morning to now, but had never had a mouthful of food, was a little annoyed. He patted the table and told the reception staff, asking him to call the general manager immediately, ask them to give an answer, and explain to today's arrangements.
