Chapter 1017: Life-Saving Grace

Licking his thirsty lips, he picked up the glass of boiled water from the table, which he just said had been sour with vinegar, and drank it down in one gulp.

He looked at Shi Lei, his mouth was still a little dry, and his voice also became dry.

"In the end what you want?"

Shi Lei waved his hand and said: "Mr. Bai, your misunderstanding is really deep. From the beginning to the end, I have never done anything to you. On the contrary, you can borrow a car if you want. You asked me to come here. I also ran over. It was you who was targeting me all this time. I should be the one to ask you this question. What do you want and why are you targeting me?

Bai Bo Shui's lips opened and closed, closed and opened again. For a long time, he couldn't explain the reason.

Shi Lei sighed and said: "Mr. Bai, I'm really curious. Could it be that I have an aura of being easy to bully, so you want to bully me when you see me? Or maybe it's to show your superiority as the eldest son of the Bai family? Feeling, so you randomly chose someone to step on, but accidentally stepped on my head? "

Bai Boishui looked at Shi Lei. He stared at Shi Lei and said word by word: "Since you protected Wei Xingyue, why didn't you protect Wei Boti?"

Shi Lei was stunned for a moment and didn't understand, so he subconsciously replied: "Why not protect Wei Boti?"

"Don't tell me Wei Puti is still alive." Veins suddenly popped out on Bai Shui's forehead.

Shi Lei frowned and said: "Of course she is still alive, maybe not as she wanted, but she has always been alive. Do you think she is dead?"

"Stop pretending to me. Although you pretended to have sent Wei Puti to Europe, don't think you can hide it from everyone. After Wei Puti mentioned Europe, he completely disappeared. Given what happened to her family in the first place, If she is still alive, she should be closely monitored. It is impossible for her to completely disappear under surveillance. I have looked for Wei Puti, but I can't find her. How dare you tell me that she is still alive. ?”

Shi Lei pursed his lips and said, "But she is indeed still alive. Just because you can't find her, you assume she is dead?"

"You can deceive Wei Xingyue, but you can never deceive me. If you hadn't sacrificed Bodhi's life, how could you have given Qixuan the opportunity to be broadcast on CCTV News?"

Shi Lei shook his head, feeling baffled by Bai Bo Shui's imagination. He said patiently: "Qixuan was on the news broadcast. I don't need to explain to you the reason. The old man never thought of targeting the Wei family. Since you know what happened back then, can you give me a reason why the old man wanted Wei Puti to die?"

"Political matters are only about compromise and fueling the flames. There is no need for any reason!" Boiled water's neck was already full of bulging blood vessels. He was obviously very angry. This anger even exceeded what he had just said with Shi Lei. When yelling.

Shi Lei let out a long sigh and said, "I don't know much about politics, but Wei Puti is indeed still alive. Just wait..." Shi Lei took out his phone, dialed Wei Puti, and asked directly: "Is it convenient to have a video call now? ?”

Wei Puti had no idea what was going on, so he replied casually: "It's convenient, but Shi Lei, what can I do for you?"

Shi Lei hung up the phone directly, and then used WeChat to dial Wei Puti's video.

Quickly connected, Shi Lei saw Wei Puti in the video, who was probably in her own apartment. Before he handed the phone to the boiled water, he said to the screen: "Someone wants to confirm whether you are still alive."

Baishui had already heard Wei Puti's voice. He couldn't believe it. He took Shi Lei's phone and saw on the screen that it was indeed Wei Puti making a video call.

"Bodhi..." Boiled water made my mouth feel even more dry.

When Wei Puti saw that it was plain water, he frowned and said, "Plain water? Are you sick? Why are you cursing me to death?"

"After I learned about your family and heard that you were sent to Europe by Shi Lei, I asked someone to help me investigate. I wanted to find you. However, even after I went to Europe myself and searched a lot, I couldn't find you. you……"

"Who do you think you are? God? Europe is so big, with nearly a billion people living there, and you have no clues. How can you find me?"

Boishui suddenly laughed and said, "It's okay that you are still alive. It seems that I misunderstood Shi Lei."

"Idiot! What does my life and death have to do with you? Am I familiar with you? Please return the phone to Shi Lei."

Boishui ignored Wei Puti's attitude and returned the phone to Shi Lei with a silly smile.

Shi Lei answered the phone, and as soon as his head appeared within the range of the camera, he heard Wei Puti say dissatisfiedly: "Don't play me a video about anything in the future, and you won't ask my opinion. Especially boiled water." Such a guy who doesn’t know anything.” After that, she hung up the video.

Shi Lei shook his head with a wry smile, put the phone back into his pocket, and said to the boiled water: "Now do you believe she is still alive?"

Boishui smiled hard and nodded extremely hard.

Shi Lei curled his lips and said, "Don't tell me that you have a crush on Wei Puti?"

Boishui scratched his head and said, "That's not true, it's just that Wei Puti once saved me..."

"Saved you? What the hell? I didn't hear Mr. Bai tell your father."

Bai Kaishui scratched his head again and said awkwardly: "They don't know. That was when I was a child. I had just been to the United States not long ago and was not used to the life there, so I ran back secretly. But after I returned to Wudong, I didn't dare to go home, so I kept strolling around my home. It was summer, and I looked at Baishui Lake and thought I should be able to swim back home from Baishui Lake Park..."

Shi Lei's mind went dark, he interrupted Bai Kaishui and said, "How old were you at the time?"

"More than fourteen, less than fifteen."

"Then how did you have the confidence that you could swim back to your home from Baishui Lake Park? Oh, it's where you live now, which is at least two kilometers away."

Bai Kaishui smiled awkwardly and said, "I was young at the time and didn't know anything, so I thought it should be no problem. But in the end, I couldn't swim for a while. When There seemed to be an undercurrent, and I sank directly. Wei Bodhi was rowing at the time. When she saw me sinking, she jumped into the water and rescued me. "

Shi Lei's forehead was black, and he asked again: "Wei Bodhi should be younger than you, right? Are you about the same age as Wei Xingyue?"

Bai Kaishui nodded and said: "Bodhi was only twelve years old, a fifth-grade elementary school student. That's why she was awesome. She jumped into the water and found me. You know, when a drowning person meets someone to save him, he must hold on tightly. As a result, Wei Bodhi punched me in the water and knocked me out. Then she threw me on the boat, took me back to the shore, and carried me to a small clinic nearby..."

Shi Lei imagined the twelve-year-old Wei Bodhi carrying a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, and inexplicably felt that this scene was quite cute.

"How much did you weigh?"

"A normal person, about 80 pounds."

"What about Wei Bodhi?"

"I don't know, but she was only about 1.2 to 1.3 meters tall? I'm not too sure. Anyway, she said later that she wanted to carry me to the hospital at first, but she was not tall and it was difficult to carry me, so she carried me on her shoulders."

Shi Lei nodded and smiled: "Well, this is really a bit legendary. I guess everyone who saw it at the time was shocked."
