Chapter 43 Buried Alive
At the stall, Xiao Bing and Su Xiaoxiao sat down. The owner put the menu on the small table. Xiao Bing pushed the menu to Su Xiaoxiao and said with a smile, “Xiaoxiao, order whatever you want.”
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t refuse. She picked up a pen and began to mark the menu. Xiao Bing saw the owner looking at himself with respect and terror. He smiled, “Boss, you still remember me?”
“Of… Of course.” The owner was a man in his forties. He looked at Xiao Bing and said with respect, “Last time, you were really mighty, domineering, heroic, brave, invincible, courageous, elegant…”
“All right, all right.” Xiao Bing didn’t know if he should cry or laugh, “What are you talking about. The words you use are getting ridiculous!”
Su Xiaoxiao almost laughed. She pretended to look at the menu and held her smile.
Xiao Bing said helplessly, “Don’t try to butter me up, I’m not a villain. That day, it was those bastards who started trouble first. By the way, have they come by these few days?”
“No!” The big fellow scratched his head and said with a silly smile, “They haven’t appeared since that night. They used to collect protection money on this street, but I’ve never seen any of them appear these days. I guess they’re afraid.”
“Afraid?” Xiao Bing asked, “Do they all live near here?”
“It should be because they used to eat and drink nearby every night. I guess their home is not far from here.”
“That’s strange. Even if they are scared, they will not all hide.”
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao handed Xiao Bing the menu and said, “See if you want to add anything.”
“I’m good.” Xiao Bing laughed, “How many bottles of beer?”
Su Xiaoxiao raised one finger, “A case.”
Xiao Bing was surprised, “You can drink a lot, can’t you?”
“I can’t.” Su Xiaoxiao smiled. Although she was smiling, she looked sad. “It’s because I can’t drink, I have to drink more.”
“Do you want to get drunk?”
“Don’t you think it’s a good thing to get drunk once in a while?”
Xiao Bing laughed, “Ok, let’s have a case of beer and I’ll drink with you today.”
Xiao Bing could understand how Su Xiaoxiao felt. She wanted to take it as the opportunity to release all the sadness in her heart. This was a good thing. Just like when Lil Bei cried in the bathroom alone.
The owner answered and brought the beer first. Then he began to make the kebabs.
Su Xiaoxiao opened two bottles of beer. She handed Xiao Bing a bottle and took one for herself. She poured the beer into her cup, then raised the cup and said, “Thank you for drinking with me. Bottoms up!”
Xiao Bing drank up the beer and looked at Su Xiaoxiao and smiled, “Aren’t you afraid that I will take advantage of you when you get drunk?”
“I don’t like you.” Su Xiaoxiao continued to pour more beer, but she kept talking, “But I know you are not that kind of person.”
“I’m surprised that you said so. I thought I was terrible in your eyes.”
“That won’t happen.” Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “If I really think so, won’t I be doubting my sister’s taste? She liked you, didn’t she?”
Xiao Bing looked at Su Xiaoxiao with surprise.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Don’t look at me like that. She taught you our family techniques. She could ask you to look after me before she died, which proves her feelings for you. I know my sister, so I know you are the man she liked. Can you tell me your story?”
Actually, there was nothing to tell. For a long time, Xiao Bing had regarded Su Peiya as his best friend. Su Peiya was fiery and unrestrained. But she was also very considerate. Xiao Bing was always surrounded by many women. It happened that only Su Peiya could tell what Xiao Bing wanted to say, do, and worry about in his heart with just one look.
They went through deadly trials together countless times and could leave their backs to each other. That was a kind of trust from the heart.
Su Peiya often told Xiao Bing things about her family. Xiao Bing would only tell her about his worries. Su Peiya even taught Xiao Bing the skills handed down through her family. The moment Xiao Bing chose to retire, she left Dragon Teeth together with Xiao Bing without hesitation, regardless of everyone’s dissuasion. At that moment, Su Peiya stunned everyone in Dragon Teeth, including Xiao Bing himself.
It seemed that there was nothing to say, but once they started talking, there was too much to talk about. Gradually, Su Xiaoxiao got drunk, her cheeks were red and her eyes reflected her drunken state. She looked at Xiao Bing and suddenly laughed. Xiao Bing felt sad too. He patted Su Xiaoxiao on the back and said softly, “I’ll take you home. You’ve drunk too much.”
“I haven’t.” Su Xiaoxiao pushed away Xiao Bing’s arm. Even sitting in a chair, her body was still wobbling, “Xiao Bing, you know, you are actually a good person, I can see that, but I can’t help hating you…”
Xiao Bing looked a little dim, and also poured a mouthful of beer and drank directly from the bottle, “I know.”
“When I was a child, my family was poor. My parents always focused on how to make money. My father lived in a rich family when he was a child. His family had a noodle restaurant and it was famous for its noodles. But then the noodle restaurant was burned to ashes in a fire. Overnight, his family was ruined.” Su Xiaoxiao drank another large glass of beer.
“So after my father and my mother got married, they started from nothing. At that time, he had no money. His dream was to fulfill his old man’s wishes and open a noodle restaurant. He had skills but no money. My mother struggled with him and worked hard to fulfill that dream, while my sister and I became very independent from an early age and tried our best to not hold them back. I remember when I was a child, my sister did all the cooking in my family. My sister would pick me up from school if it rained. My sister tutored me when my academic performance fell behind. When I accidentally fell and hurt myself, my sister helped me to put on medicine…”
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were red and tears were about to flow, “My sister meant so much to me… but she died…”
Su Xiaoxiao, who always has a cold appearance, leaned on the table and began to cry.
Xiao Bing sighed slightly. He could only quietly look at Su Xiaoxiao. Then he suddenly stood up and made an unexpected move. He slowly sat down in the chair next to Su Xiaoxiao. They were close to each other. Then Xiao Bing gently hugged her in his arms. Su Xiaoxiao laid in Xiao Bing’s arms, sobbing.
Su Xiaoxiao cried for a while until she felt cold all over. She muttered to herself, “I… I really want to sleep.”
Xiao Bing touched Su Xiaoxiao’s head with his hand and said in surprise, “Xiaoxiao, you have a fever. I’ll take you to see a doctor.”
After that, Xiao Bing took out some money and put it on the table and shouted, “Boss, the bill!”
Then, holding Su Xiaoxiao in his arms, Xiao Bing walked quickly. Su Xiaoxiao wriggled gently in Xiao Bing’s arms. Her face was very red, perhaps because she had drunk alcohol or because of her fever. She opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at Xiao Bing in a daze and said, “Don’t go to the hospital… take me home.”
“Okay!” Xiao Bing, who was holding her, looked for a taxi while walking. This place was far from the city center and not many taxies would come by. Xiao Bing suddenly felt a chill from his back. He curled up quickly and rolled with Su Xiaoxiao in his arms. Several chilling lights flashed from where Xiao Bing just stood. That was the flash of knives!
But at the same time, in the countryside, several men in black were digging a big deep pit. The men who had had conflicts with Xiao Bing and Ye Tianming were all tied up outside the deep pit. Their mouths were sealed shut and their eyes were full of fear. After the pit was dug, one of the men in black walked to the black car nearby. The window was rolled down from the inside. Inside the car, there was a faint shadow in the moonlight.
The person dressed in black bent down and said respectfully, “The pit has been dug. Master, what should we do with these people?”
The voice of the person in the car was calm and low, and at the same time, it was cold and chilly. The order was just like talking about a trivial matter, “Bury them.”
“Yes.”
The man dressed in black turned around and walked towards the tied up Zhang Laowu and the others. These people kept shaking their heads, and their eyeballs almost popped out. They heard the man’s cold command, “Push them in!”
Then the men in black pushed Zhang Laowu and the others into the pit one by one. All of them moved quickly and skillfully to shovel the soil inside. Zhang Laowu and others were able to struggle in the pit at first. Their bodies were twisted in pain, and their mouths uttered painful groans through the rags. Tears, snot and even urine flowed out together. They didn’t want to die. Although they were gangsters and did many bad things, they still had a life. All life had the desire to survive. They still wanted to live!
However, their bodies were tied too tight. They couldn’t break free no matter how hard they struggled. Gradually, their bodies were buried in. And gradually, they lost the strength to continue struggling. Gradually, the only thing left outside was their heads. Gradually, they all disappeared. They disappeared completely in this pile of soil.
In this dark night, these few lives that disappeared for the past few days completely vanished.
