act wildly

Chapter 728
His words left Bai Pu a little confused.

Can I still get scolded for giving her credit?What is the logic.

She frowned and asked in confusion, "Being scolded? Why?"

The clerk simply straightened his back, as if he had finally found someone to talk to, "This old woman is very pitiful. We all know a little bit about what happened in her family. Our curator is a kind-hearted person who eats fast and chants Buddha's name. Every time Seeing how pitiful she was, she acquiesced to the credit. But it's okay to do it once or twice, but you can't just rely on us, right? Do you think we can't stand this kind of person? "

His complaining tone showed some dissatisfaction.

When Bai Pu nodded in agreement, he quickly continued, "This old woman is more outrageous than you think! Just watching our curator become soft-hearted, she gets nothing for nothing every time she comes and she justifiably refuses to pay. Our curator is also a jerk, and we give it to her every time. It would be fine if she really meant well, but she is not a good person at all. It has been so long, and she has not even said thank you!"

Bai Pu was stunned for a while.

She hesitated and then added, "Is it because she is anxious to go back and give medicine to patients every time, but she really can't come up with the money to repay it, so she is embarrassed to tell you more?"

She didn't mention it, but when she mentioned it, the clerk immediately became angry, "Sorry? Pull it off. Do you know that she always takes the medicine and leaves immediately? She is like a bandit. I still remember that the curator was not in the store before. When she came to get medicine, we refused to give it to her. At that time, she went crazy and picked up things on the medicine shelf and threw them around. She also called us bad-hearted, which made other customers think we had done something bad. She They are completely taking advantage of our curator and his good intentions!"

The clerk complained, as if he had been holding this breath for a long time.

Seeing his indignant expression, Bai Pu felt numb in his heart. He took a step back unconsciously and suddenly stepped on something under his feet.

She raised her feet reflexively, but her body lost its center of gravity and tilted to the side and back. Just when she was about to fall, her shoulder was suddenly pulled up by a warm hand.

Bai Pu took a breath and suddenly raised his head, just in time to meet Lu Zhaohe's deep eyes.

She cleared her throat, "You hit my foot."

Lu Zhaohe paused with his fingers and glanced at her casually, "Do I still have to apologize to you?"

Bai Pu naturally broke away from his hand, shook his head, and said seriously, "No, it doesn't hurt very much."

The trick of complaining first can really alleviate the embarrassment.

The clerk hadn't finished speaking and was about to come forward when he heard their movements.

Bai Pu was thinking about what he just said about the old lady, and suddenly remembered something. His fingers hanging on his sides tightened: "Oops!"

Her eyes were obviously a little excited, and she turned around and grabbed Lu Zhaohe's arm, "The old man will go back and ask everyone about the demolition. Even if he has something to hide, some people with brains should be able to guess it. Doesn't this news mean that it has already happened?" Released?"

Lu Zhaohe's tone deepened, "What's wrong?"

Bai Pu swallowed in his throat, took a breath and continued, "Now there is finally a chance for demolition. If according to you, what happened a few years ago was not an accident but man-made, then wouldn't it be the same old lady who is the only one who disagrees now? Is there going to be danger?!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Zhaohe frowned slightly, obviously thinking about her.

"Walk."

After finishing speaking neatly, he turned around, took Bai Pu's hand and hurried out.

This series of actions was so fast that the clerk didn't react for a while.

Looking at their backs as they quickly walked out of the door, the clerk felt baffled, especially since he hadn't finished speaking yet. He thought these two people could help the old woman clear the bill.

He kicked the cardboard box next to him and spat to the side, "Two lunatics."

When we came out of the hospital, it was already dark, covering the entire earth like a deep curtain.

The street lights reflected the shadows of the two of them. Bai Pu followed him and quickly got into the car and drove towards Chen Meifang's home.

Looking at the night scene rowing quickly behind him, Bai Pu pursed his lips and said, "I really didn't expect this old lady to be such a person."

When I met her before, coupled with Fang Mian's description of her family, I just felt that her family background was very pitiful.For the sake of her bedridden son, the old lady could only work hard all her life. She never imagined that there would be such a face behind her.

Lu Zhaohe was not surprised by her question.

He frowned, "Then who do you think she could be?"

She thought about it carefully for a while, with a serious look on her face, "The hard-working and honest kind."

These characteristics really fit the appearance of the old lady.

Bai Pu didn't hear the answer, only a cold snort.

There seemed to be a hint of ridicule.

What's the meaning?Are you laughing at her?

Before Bai Pu could speak, the firelight that illuminated half of the sky in the distance suddenly attracted her attention.

Bai Pu squinted his eyes. That seemed to be the direction of Chen Meifang's house.

She was about to be surprised when she felt that the car suddenly had enough gas, its power was greatly improved, and it rushed forward.

After getting closer, the fire became more obvious and thick black smoke was rising. As the south wind blew stronger, the fire spread uncontrollably.

"The urban village is on fire!"

Bai Pu exclaimed, and the uneasiness in his heart was completely confirmed.

Lu Zhaohe stepped on the accelerator with a sullen expression, and quickly drove to the vicinity of the burning building.

For safety reasons, he parked the car further away from the crime scene.

The two got out of the car together and ran quickly towards the direction of the fire.

People in urban villages tend to go to bed earlier. At this time, many houses have already turned off the lights, and there are still people around who are sleeping and don't know what is going on.

Several households nearby heard strange noises outside and turned on their lights again.

"It's on fire! Get up!" Bai Pu trotted all the way and knocked on the door. After a while, the whole village was in complete chaos.

The children's cries were mixed with the shouts of the crowd, many of whom came to watch the excitement and took pictures with their mobile phones.

In the chaos, Bai Pu saw a familiar figure running out not far away. It was the old man who helped Lu Zhaohe compile the demolition list.

He was only wearing a thin undershirt. The moment he saw Bai Pu, he patted his thigh regretfully, "The house on fire is the one that didn't agree to the demolition a few days ago..."

The old man's cloudy eyes looked in the direction of the fire, and for a moment he didn't know whether it was a good deed or an evil deed.

Bai Pu didn't have time to step forward to comfort her. Although she and Lu Zhaohe had anticipated this incident in advance, when it actually happened in front of her, she was still deeply shocked.

She originally had some expectations for human nature, but the scene at this moment directly shattered her illusions.

Bai Pu suppressed the discomfort in his heart and followed Lu Zhaohe to the location of the fire.

Arriving in front of the burning building, Bai Pu noticed that many police officers had gathered around the scene.

She glanced around in surprise. It was obvious that they had arrived quickly, but it was obvious that they arrived in time.
