Chapter 47 Blood in the Rain There was a faint smell of medicine in the room. Although the furnishings were shabby and old, they were clean enough. When Levi came in, the woman named Suya was having dinner with a boy. Compared with the photo that Li Ming took to Li Wei in his peripheral vision, she looked more haggard and pale, while the boy sitting next to her looked to be only two or three years old, with big, bright eyes and a chubby face. When Levi walked in, Su Ya was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted. She put away the half-eaten meal, and while coughing, she put the only plate of pickled vegetables on the table into the cupboard. "Come in, Xiaowei, mommy has to work." The boy stood up obediently, said "Oh", and then cleverly lifted the curtain and walked into the inner room. Su Ya had also sat down on the edge of the bed. She lowered her head and started coughing again, then began to unbutton her shirt. "I'm sorry to have kept you here. You may begin now, sir." Levi didn't move. He just took out the letter that Li Ming gave him, asking him to choose whether to give it to Su Ya or not.
This made Su Ya, who had already unbuttoned half of her shirt, revealing a large white area on her chest, look at him in confusion and took the envelope that Levi handed over. After opening the envelope and seeing the letter inside, her body suddenly began to tremble. The pair of eyes filled with fatigue and numbness turned red in an instant, tears kept falling, and she buried her head in the quilt that had been washed white, using it to isolate herself from the suppressed crying. But there was still noise heard in the inner room. A boy named Xiao Wei poked his head out shakily, looked at Su Ya who was crying on the bed with his big eyes, and shouted. "Mother." "Go back! I've scolded you many times! Put cotton in your ears! No matter what noise is outside, don't come out! Why don't you listen!" "I, I understand, Mom." The boy agreed with his head down, then shakily lowered the door curtain and stepped back. Su Ya wiped the tears from her face and looked at Levi again. This time, in addition to numbness, there was also gratitude and pleading in her eyes. "Thank you for coming to see me on behalf of my uncle, but please, please can you not tell him what I am like now?" She fell to her knees and made a humble request to Levi. "Why?" Levi asked with a frown. "I can't bring him any trouble, please, sir! Just return this letter and tell him that I'm living well in the congressman's house and he doesn't need to worry about me, okay? I'll do anything you ask me to do! I don't have money, but I can serve you, in any way I can!" Listening to her words that no longer had any dignity, Levi glanced at the inner room and guessed the reason. "Whose child is this?" Su Ya's face was pale and she fell to the ground weakly. She did not answer Levi's question, as if she had turned into a wooden man. Apart from coughing more violently, even coughing up blood, she had no intention of speaking again. Levi looked at her like this, shook his head, and did not continue to force her to ask questions. Instead, he turned around and left the shed. He glanced at the player information and saw the mission [Visit] which had no reward and realized the trouble involved. But even so, he had no intention of giving up. Although he and Li Ming were in a business relationship, since the matter had already been agreed upon, he would try his best to do as much as he could.
Of course, if Su Ya really didn't want to leave no matter what, he wouldn't force her. Conveying the truth to Li Ming was what he should do. After leaving Hongle Street, he took a taxi to a grocery store in Yaoguang North District. The shop owner here was given to him by Li Ming as a channel to contact and take Su Ya away. After completing the connection, Levi stated his requirements. "In addition to a woman, can you add a child to get the person out?" The shop owner was a little surprised, but still nodded. "Yes, one child is not noticeable. You can just bring the big one and the small one to me when the time comes." "The child's identity is a bit questionable. He may be the illegitimate child of a congressman." "The councillor's illegitimate son!" The owner was obviously startled and he looked straight at Levi. "Do you know what you are talking about? Brother, the congressman's illegitimate child! Let's not talk about whether this thing can be done or not. Even if it is done, once it is found out, we will all die!" Levi and he looked into each other's eyes. "I don't know what your relationship with Li Ming is, but that woman is Li Ming's niece, and the child is her son." "Li Ming obviously cares about this matter very much, otherwise he wouldn't have come all the way to ask me for help. If you think this matter can be done, I will bring people here tonight. If you think it can't be done, then forget it and just pass the news to Li Ming." His words silenced the shopkeeper. This silence lasted for a long time before he raised his head again. "The president has treated me well. Because of him, I have such a good life in Yaoguang. One should not forget one's roots! Since she is his niece, I will do it even if there are huge risks!" His words made Levi look at him differently. After getting a positive result, Levi did not waste any more time and returned to Hongle Street. By the afternoon, the sky had darkened again and a drizzle had been falling. The first half of the street is lined with dance halls and entertainment clubs. Most of these shops are legal brothels. In the middle section, there are signs of some human resources companies, which are lower-end pimps. And those shacks at the end of the street are the lowest and dirtiest afterglow prostitutes. Only hooligans and penniless lazy people would come to such places. Because it is one of Yaoguang’s famous red-light districts, it is very quiet during the day and only becomes lively at night. When Levi came back again, there were almost no pedestrians on the street. He quickly came to the shed at the end of the street with his umbrella, but from a distance he saw in front of Su Ya's house a tattered umbrella with half of its ribs missing and the small red umbrella drooping in front of the door. Li Wei frowned slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. He walked quickly forward and saw a boy named Xiao Wei squatting under the small red umbrella. He tilted the umbrella in his hand towards Su Ya, but his back half was soaked. Seeing Levi, he raised his childish face. "Sir, could you help me wake up my mother? She has fallen asleep at the door."
Levi didn't say anything. He just stood there straight, silently looking at Su Ya with her eyes closed, half of her body sticking out of the door. Under that pale face, a large pool of shocking red liquid had gathered! "You've played me to death! Sir, you've played too much. But she's just a cheap bitch. As long as we can discuss the compensation, everything will be fine!" A shrill voice rang out, Levi turned his head and saw the pimp named Yan walking towards him with a surprised smile on his face. "Tsk." Levi smacked his lips, and anyone who knew him would be able to tell from his tone how unhappy he was at the moment. But he still smiled and spoke softly. "Yes, we should have a good discussion about the issue of compensation." (End of this chapter)
