Chapter 526 Escape
Every step is full of challenges, and every decision concerns Wang Xiaohei's life.
Gao Yuliang and Qi Tongwei stayed at the hospital all the time, they were nervous and anxious. They were looking forward to a miracle, but also prepared for the worst. They knew that no matter what the result was, they had tried their best.
As time went by, Wang Xiaohei's condition gradually stabilized. The new treatment seemed to have some effect, and his body began to recover slowly. This gave Gao Yuliang, Qi Tongwei and all those who cared about him hope.
Gao Yuliang was filled with emotion, and he realized that his decision was correct. He saw the beauty and strength of human nature, and also saw the importance of unity and persistence. He knew that the battle was not over yet, but they had taken a crucial step.
During Wang Xiaohei's recovery, Gao Yuliang and Qi Tongwei stayed by his side. They brought him nutritious food, chatted with him, and encouraged him to face the treatment positively. Their care and support made Wang Xiaohei feel warm and strong, and also strengthened his confidence in defeating the disease.
As Wang Xiaohei's health gradually improved, the hotel staff also breathed a sigh of relief. They were happy for their colleague and were moved by the efforts of Gao Yuliang and Qi Tongwei. They knew that in this difficult time, everyone united and worked together to create this miracle.
After a long period of treatment and rehabilitation, Wang Xiaohei finally recovered his health. The moment he walked out of the hospital, the sun shone on him, and he felt the beauty and preciousness of life. He knew that his survival was inseparable from the efforts of Gao Yuliang, Qi Tongwei and all the people who cared about him.
Wang Xiaohei returned to the hotel and was warmly welcomed by everyone. Tears flashed in his eyes and he bowed deeply to everyone. "Thank you, without you, I would not have survived. I will spend the rest of my life repaying your kindness."
Gao Yuliang walked forward and patted Wang Xiaohei on the shoulder. "Wang Xiaohei, you are our hero. Your courage and persistence give us hope. From now on, we will work together for the future of the hotel."
Just when Wang Xiaohei was about to devote himself to his new life and repay those who helped him on the brink of life and death with his own efforts, troubles came one after another. One day, a group of aggressive people suddenly came to the door of the hotel. They were dressed simply, even a little sloppy, but their eyes showed a fierceness. One of the big men with stubble on his face shouted at the top of his voice: "Wang Xiaohei, you made us look so hard!"
When Wang Xiaohei heard the voice, his face turned pale and his body trembled unconsciously. Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang were discussing something in the hotel. When they heard the noise outside, they came out. They looked at this group of uninvited guests, full of doubts.
When the big man saw Wang Xiaohei, he took a few steps forward and tried to grab him by the collar. Wang Xiaohei stepped back and begged for mercy, "Brother, please give me some more time, I will definitely pay you back." As soon as these words came out, Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
It turned out that these people were Wang Xiaohei's creditors in his hometown in the countryside. Under the pressure of everyone, Wang Xiaohei had to tell his shameful past. He was addicted to gambling and got deeper and deeper into the underground casino in the village. At first, he just wanted to play around, and after winning a few times, he felt that he had found a way to make money. But there is no such thing as winning all the time in gambling. Soon he started to lose money, and the more he lost, the more he wanted to make up for his losses, and the bigger the bets he placed.
In order to raise money for gambling, he not only lost all his family savings, but also borrowed money from almost every household in the village, and even used some improper means to borrow money from loan sharks. He looked like a completely different person at the gambling table, with red eyes and a crazy look. He cursed when he lost and laughed wildly when he won. His behavior made the whole village uneasy, and those neighbors who once trusted him were all miserable because of him. Some families fell into trouble because of lending him money; some elderly people lent him their retirement money and now can only struggle in pain.
Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang were shocked when they heard this. They could never imagine that Wang Xiaohei, who was struggling to survive on the hospital bed and whom they took good care of, had such a dark side. Gao Yuliang frowned, his eyes full of disappointment and heartache. He always thought he saw the beauty of human nature, but he didn't expect to be deceived so thoroughly by Wang Xiaohei. Qi Tongwei's face was full of anger, he clenched his fists, and he wanted to beat Wang Xiaohei up.
The creditors didn't care about Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang's feelings, they just wanted their money back. The big man yelled at Wang Xiaohei, "Do you think you can hide here and be safe? If we can't get the money today, we will chop off your hands!" Wang Xiaohei was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, crying and begging.
The hotel staff also gathered around, and no one could believe what they saw. The sympathy and emotion they had for Wang Xiaohei disappeared at this moment, replaced by anger and disgust. One of the employees couldn't help but curse: "Wang Xiaohei, you really disappoint us. We thought you were a good person, but you turned out to be such a rubbish."
Wang Xiaohei no longer cared about other people's scolding. He just kept kowtowing to Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang, hoping that they could help him again. Gao Yuliang looked at him with mixed feelings. He knew the harm of gambling and understood that if he helped Wang Xiaohei again this time, he might fall into a deeper abyss. But looking at Wang Xiaohei's pitiful appearance, he felt a little bit reluctant. Qi Tongwei said firmly: "This kind of person is not worthy of our help. He should bear the consequences of his own mistakes."
However, the creditors did not intend to let Wang Xiaohei off easily. They started to cause trouble in the restaurant and smashed some tables and chairs. The restaurant was in chaos and customers were scared and fled. Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang tried to maintain order, persuading the creditors to calm down and trying to solve the problem. They said they would stabilize Wang Xiaohei first and then negotiate a solution with the creditors, but the creditors demanded that they must get some money immediately before they would give up.
In the process, more details about Wang Xiaohei's gambling evil deeds were revealed. After losing a bet, he threatened an elderly widow in the village in order to borrow money to pay off his gambling debts. The elderly woman had no choice but to give him all her living expenses. Another time, he had an argument with someone in a casino and fought with him, causing the other person to be seriously injured and hospitalized, while he fled.
