Elopement: My Decade of Life and Death in Thailand's Red Light District

Chapter 12 The Intersection of Love and Hate
This has always been my biggest knot in my heart. I have been unwilling to face it. Maybe if I speak it out, I will be able to truly be freed...

Lin Xiuer seemed to understand my thoughts, and smiled wryly: "Yes, that's Brother Dong, this is also my acquaintance with him, isn't it quite old-fashioned, a hero saves a beautiful woman!"

It's really old-fashioned, I smiled, and didn't comment on what Lin Xiuer said just now, because I really don't know what to say, should I agree or disagree?Anyway, no matter what, I feel weird in my heart.

Lin Xiu'er also noticed my embarrassment, smiled, and started talking again: I withdrew my hand and said with a smile, "Thank you so much just now!"

Brother Dong looked at me meaningfully and said: "Lin Xiu'er, you are too simple, you need to use your brain more when you do things in the future, otherwise you will suffer!"

I yelled, "How do you know my name?"

Brother Dong pointed to the big red paper that had been blown away by the strong wind and said, "Isn't it clearly written on it?"

I listened and smiled embarrassedly.When I was standing there awkwardly and at a loss, Brother Dong suddenly came over and grabbed my hand and said, "Let's go!"

I looked at him in surprise and asked, "Where are you going?"

Brother Dong smiled: "Of course I went to fill my stomach, aren't you hungry?"

When Brother Dong said that I was really hungry, I looked at him hesitantly, wondering if I should go with him.Brother Dong probably saw my hesitation, pointed at Sunshine Homeland with a smile and said, "I live here, everyone calls me Brother Dong, you should call me Brother Dong too!"

I sighed with a wow: "I can't think of it, you are so young, and you live here."

Brother Dong smiled and said, "What kind of logic is this? Can't you live here when you are young?"

I fell into embarrassment again after hearing this, but fortunately Dongge untied me in time and gave me a push: "Let's go, let's go, I'm so hungry!"

This time, I finally made up my mind and followed Brother Dong to a nearby restaurant.

Hearing what Lin Xiuer said to this point, I couldn't help laughing bitterly. This brother Dong's way of seducing people is too clumsy. It's basically the same as the way he hooked up with me back then. After calling out our names and arousing our surprise, he proceeded to invite us to dinner.

Immediately afterwards, won't you also give Lin Xiu'er a diamond ring and necklace?
When I thought about it, I blurted out the question. Lin Xiuer blushed when she heard this, "How do you know about the diamond ring and necklace?"

I shook my head and sighed: "Because our experiences are too similar. I met Brother Dong in the beginning. He beat up a woman who bullied me because of me, and then he started to invite me to dinner, knowing that it was my birthday. After that, he gave me a diamond ring and a necklace as presents."

Lin Xiu'er also smiled wryly: "The front is quite similar, but he didn't give me a diamond ring and necklace at the beginning."

Speaking of the diamond ring and necklace, I started to mutter again, what is going on with this brother Dong?When you give someone a diamond ring and a necklace as a gift, but you only sell them for [-] yuan, isn't this a loss-making business?This question has been lingering in my mind for a long time, now that I mentioned the diamond ring and necklace with Lin Xiuer, I finally had the opportunity to say it out.

Lin Xiu'er heard my question, and suddenly laughed until she burst into tears, finally stopped laughing, and said to me who was dumbfounded: "Sister Luo, you don't know until now, the diamond ring And the necklace are all simulations, right?"

ah?Fake!It may not be that I have never thought of this, but I have always been unwilling to admit it. I always feel that leaving those things to Gu Yifan can make up for my debt to him to a large extent.But Lin Xiuer's words shattered my false comfort at once.

How can I hope to believe what Lin Xiuer just said?So, I shook her shoulders, and my voice was already crying: "Lin Xiuer, tell me, this is not true!"

Lin Xiuer sighed: "I also hope that this is not true. I am not like you. Although it is fake, it is easy to get it. You know how much effort I have spent to get the diamond ring and necklace. If it weren't for them, I would not Impossible to fall here."

What Lin Xiuer said started to arouse my curiosity again. Lin Xiuer fell here because of these things, and she also worked so hard to get them. What is going on?
Because of my words, Lin Xiuer began to fall into memories again. The expressions on her face were really rich, sweet for a while, and sad for a while.I looked at her, and really couldn't bear to disturb her, so I just waited quietly, waiting for her to take the initiative to tell me her story.

Fortunately, Lin Xiu'er didn't make me wait too long. After a while, she finally started talking again: I went to Sunshine Community to find rich people to borrow money, but I don't know what happened. I can't open my mouth in front of me.

There seems to be a kind of magical power in him, which always attracts me and makes me reluctant to leave him, so I am really afraid that if I talk about money, I will scare Dong Ge away.Also, I never had a chance to mention it.From the time I entered the restaurant to eat, Brother Dong kept talking. His voice was so magnetic and his language was so humorous. When I was with him, I seemed to forget all my worries and kept giggling. , Thinking about it now, I really feel that that period of time was the time when I laughed the most in my life, but who would have known that it would end like this!

Lin Xiu'er's words are so sad, and the sadness is really contagious, and I also feel sad, I really hate myself for being obsessed with ghosts, so I just foolishly believed that it could be love, and abandoned my family for that love?

Thinking of my son Gu Duoze, my heart began to ache again, and I silently said in my heart: "Duoze, I'm sorry, mom is wrong, mom is sorry for you!"

As I was chanting, I couldn't help crying again. Lin Xiu'er got up, wiped my tears gently, and said, "Miss Luo, please don't cry, I will continue to tell my story to you." listen."

I nodded and agreed.

So Lin Xiu'er started talking again: That night, when Brother Dong was sending me back, he kissed me and said softly: "Xiu'er, do you believe in love at first sight? I never believed in it before, but now I start Believe it!"

I never believed in love at first sight before, but after seeing Brother Dong, I believed it too, so Brother Dong wanted to kiss me. Even though it was my first kiss, I obediently let him kiss me.

After that day, Brother Dong and I fell in love.After talking about love, I mentioned my dad's illness to him several times, hoping that he would take the initiative to bring my dad to see a doctor.But seeing my dad getting worse day by day, I couldn't sit still anymore. Just when I was thinking about how to get a sum of money from Brother Dong, the opportunity came.

I just went to Dong Ge to look for him that day, and I heard Dong Ge ask: "Xiu'er, it will be your birthday in a few days, what gift do you want?"

I naturally want to say that I want a sum of money, a sum of money that can cure my father's illness.But I was ashamed to say it so bluntly, so I replied, "Guess what I want most?"

Brother Dong picked up a handbag from the sofa and shook it: "I don't want to guess, anyway, if you like it or not, I'll prepare the birthday present for you!"

After hearing this, I jumped over happily, snatched the handbag from Brother Dong, and said:

"Show me, what is this?"

I opened it and was stunned. It turned out to be a necklace and a diamond ring, and there were invoices beside them.When I saw that the two things were worth more than 30 yuan, I was really frightened and stupid. After a long time, I stammered and asked: "You... you... say it again, this... this... Is this for me?"

Brother Dong raised his mouth slightly, and said, "Of course it's for you, but it's not for now, it will have to wait until your birthday!" After Dong Ge finished speaking, he snatched them from my hand again, And put it carefully in his pocket.

Hearing Dong Ge's affirmative answer, I was immediately happy. This is really what I think. After I got these birthday presents, I quietly took the necklace to the pawn shop and pawned it. That way, My dad has enough money for medical treatment.

After I went back that day, I said to my mother happily: "Mom, you don't have to worry, my father will have the money for seeing a doctor soon!"

My mother asked in amazement: "Xiu'er, what's going on? Tell mom quickly, don't you do anything crooked?"

I put my arms around my mother and said happily: "Mom, what are you talking nonsense? You don't know about the daughter you raised yourself. Do I seem to be a bad person? Don't worry, I borrowed it from my friend."

I didn't name Brother Dong, because Brother Dong was many years older than me, and I was afraid that my parents would object to me being with him, so I never told them about my relationship with Brother Dong.

I have never looked forward to my birthday so much as I did in those few days.Looking at my father, who was tormented by the illness and was dying, I couldn't help but cheer him up in my heart over and over again: "Dad, come on, if you last a few more days, I will have money to treat your illness!"

Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, I finally look forward to my birthday.That day, I got up early in the morning and went to Brother Dong's place. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a big suitcase in front of Brother Dong, as if he was about to go on a long journey. Where to?"

Dong Ge patted my face affectionately and said: "In order to celebrate your birthday, I decided to take a big vacation and take you to Thailand for a few days. How about it? Are you happy?"

I have grown up so much, I have never even been out of the province, let alone abroad, although I really want to go, but when I think of my father's illness, I don't want to go at all.I said: "Brother Dong, don't go, it's too expensive to go so far, and don't you need a passport to go abroad? I don't have an ID card yet!"

Brother Dong smiled: "Don't worry about the money, and I know the way there very well. If you want to get a passport or something, you don't need to take an ID card at all. We can board the plane at any time when we go there."

After Dong Ge finished speaking, seeing that I was not very moved, he patted his pocket and sighed: "It seems that my flattery has been slapped on the horse's feet. I bought a gift and wanted to give it away, but I was stunned." Can't send it out."

Listen to Brother Dong, if I don’t go to Thailand with him, he won’t give me that necklace and diamond ring. If he doesn’t give me the necklace and diamond ring, I won’t be able to raise money for my dad’s medical treatment. When it comes to the money for my dad's medical treatment, my dad's illness is really incurable.

After weighing it for a long time, I still agreed to Brother Dong.As soon as Brother Dong heard that I agreed to go to Thailand with him, he immediately pulled me up happily and was about to go to the airport.

I said: "This is not okay, I have to go back and tell my parents, otherwise my parents will be anxious if they don't know where I am going!"

Brother Dong raised his hand and promised: "It's okay, we'll go for two days, and we'll be back in two days."

I said seriously, "No, not even for a day."

Brother Dong saw me angry and said quickly: "Okay, okay! You go back and tell your parents, but don't tell them about going to Thailand."

When I heard that Brother Dong agreed that I would go back and say hello to my parents, I was immediately happy: "Don't worry! I haven't told them about us yet, so I just said that I will go to play with my classmates for a day or two."

After greeting my parents, I followed Brother Dong to the airport.Since I was flying for the first time, I saw everything new, even the plane ticket. After looking at it for a long time, I immediately discovered the problem.

I pointed to the plane ticket and asked, "Brother Dong, why isn't my name written on the plane ticket?"

Brother Dong heard this, and immediately booed at me with his index finger up: "Little aunt, what are you talking so loudly for?
Are you afraid that others will not know that you don't have an ID card, I used a fake ID for you!In that case, we will be kicked off the plane, let alone go to jail! "

I saw that Dong Ge made the matter so serious, so I stuck out my tongue and didn't dare to make any more noise.

Hearing Lin Xiuer talk about this, I suddenly realized that it was no wonder that when Brother Dong brought me to Thailand, he never asked me for an ID card, which was used to buy air tickets and apply for a passport.

Before boarding the plane, Brother Dong kept hiding in his armpits. He just refused to show me the plane ticket and passport, and said that he was afraid that I would lose them carelessly, so he kept them for me.It is estimated that there must be something tricky about the air ticket and passport that I don't know about, otherwise why wouldn't he dare to show it to me?Maybe it's the same as bringing Lin Xiu'er out, it's fake!
Although I was thinking this way in my heart, I didn't say these words, but kept urging Lin Xiuer to tell her story.At this moment, Lin Xiuer's face was full of pain. Seeing her in such pain, I knew that Lin Xiuer must have recalled the place she least wanted to recall, that is, the moment when her dream was broken.

I took Lin Xiu'er's hand: "If it's really painful, don't talk about it!"

Lin Xiu'er shook her head vigorously, and said softly: "This has always been my biggest knot in my heart, and I have been unwilling to face it. Maybe if I speak out, I will be able to truly be freed!"

I saw that Lin Xiuer was so resolute, so naturally there was no reason to stop her. What's more, I really wanted to know what happened to them afterwards?Did Lin Xiuer get the necklace and diamond ring in the end?
After getting it, how do you know they are simulated fakes?

Lin Xiuer took a deep breath, and then started talking again: After arriving in Thailand, Brother Dong took me here, and said, if I go to Thailand, I will regret it if I don’t come here.

However, for me, it doesn't really matter where I go. The important thing is that Brother Dong give me the gift quickly. I'm still waiting to exchange it into money after returning home to save my dad's life.I waited and waited, and finally when Dong Ge took me out for dinner, Dong Ge personally put the necklace and diamond ring on my neck and fingers.

When Brother Dong put these on me, my first thought was: Dad, you are saved, you must wait for me!
When I was about to leave the restaurant after dinner, Brother Dong hugged his stomach and told me to go to the bathroom and asked me to wait for him. When I was waiting for him, a woman came, and the woman sighed in surprise when she saw me: "Wow , your necklace is so beautiful, where did you buy it?"

When I met a woman who could speak Chinese in a foreign country, I felt very cordial, so I replied, "I bought it in China."

The woman said enviously after hearing this: "Oh, that's great. My sister's birthday is two days away, and I want to give her a necklace, but I haven't been able to find a good one. Little girl, please do me a favor and sell it to me." I'll forget it, if you really don't want to part with it, you can go back to China and buy another one."

I originally intended to sell the necklace to save my father's life, but after hearing what this woman said, it was a hit, and I immediately nodded and said, "You can do it if you want it, then you can ask for a price!"

The woman held out three fingers and shook at me: "How about 30?"

I was secretly delighted when I heard it, I read the invoice, and the sum of the two items was only more than 30 yuan, but when this woman opened her mouth, she would give 30 yuan for the necklace alone, so I really made a profit.

On the one hand, I was eager to save my father, and on the other hand, I was afraid that Brother Dong would come back soon, so I agreed to what the woman said without even thinking about it. The woman took out a document from her bag: "Since we agree, let's sign a document first." Make a contract, so you don't have to worry about it later!"

I saw that the document was densely written in Thai, and when I couldn’t understand it at all, I hesitated a little. Seeing my hesitation, the woman said, “If you are worried, I will translate it for you in Chinese!”

After finishing speaking, she crackled and read according to the document.I listened, and it was nothing more than the two parties' love and I were willing to buy and sell this necklace freely. Afterwards, the two parties could not regret anything, so they nodded and agreed, and signed my name along the place she pointed.

Thinking about it now, it was really too sloppy at the time, why didn't I think about it at all, if this woman just met me by chance and wanted to buy my necklace, how could she have come prepared with a contract?

Seeing that I had signed my name, the woman immediately filled out 30 yuan with a check from her body and handed it to me, but the check was snatched from me as soon as it was handed to me.I looked back and screamed that it was not good. The person who took away my check was Dong Ge. Before I could speak, I heard Dong Ge say angrily: "Xiu'er, you let me down so much. I gave you the check." How can you sell birthday gifts to others casually?"

I knew I was wrong, and stood there with my head down, not daring to make a sound.Brother Dong saw that I was silent, so he didn't continue talking, but took out the check and took a serious look: "Ah, you were cheated, I bought the necklace for nearly 30, and you just sold this necklace." Some money!"

I leaned over and pointed at the check and said, "Isn't there 30 here?"

Brother Dong stomped his feet and said, "You are stupid, this is filled in Thai baht, which is equivalent to RMB [-] to [-]!"

Ah, only then did I realize the seriousness of the problem, and quickly said: "No, I have to chase that woman back!" After finishing speaking, I didn't care whether Dong Ge agreed or not, I chased after the woman, That woman seemed to be playing cat-and-mouse with me on purpose, I was quicker, she was faster, I was slower, she was slower, and I followed here before I knew it.

When Lin Xiu'er said this, I finally understood, she is another stupid girl who sold herself and paid for it.

The document she signed should be the same as mine, the deed of sale, and the person who bought her necklace should be Sister Chun.

Lin Xiu'er listened to my question, nodded and said: Yes, you are right, what I signed is my contract of sale, and the woman who bought the necklace with me is Sister Chun.But at the time, I didn't think about it at all. I just wanted to catch up with Sister Chun and get the necklace back.

When we got here, Sister Chun finally stopped. I took the opportunity to run over, grabbed her and said, "Give me back the necklace!"

Sister Chun smiled and said, "What necklace?"

Seeing that Sister Chun refused to accept it for a while, I was anxious: "The necklace you bought with me just now, you said to give me 30 yuan, but it turned out to be Thai baht, and it was only worth 6 to [-] yuan. You return it to me, and I won't sell it." Already!"

Sister Chun giggled and said, "Who said that I spent 6 to 6 RMB to buy your worthless necklace? Let me tell you, I spent [-] to [-] RMB to buy you, not that necklace. I can grab a lot of things here, Brother Dong should take them out of me, and lie to little girls like you!"

Hearing what she said, I panicked. I went back to look for Brother Dong, only to find that he didn't come with me.

When Sister Chun saw her, she smiled again and said, "Don't look for it, brother Dong sold you, now you should be on your way back home!"
