Su Li smiled and said, “Then how can I believe that you can always listen to me? What if you suddenly betray me? So signing this is the fastest and most effective way.”
She did not believe that a rascal would always be loyal to her. The best way was to grab one of the other party’s lifelines. As long as she had this lifeline, they would not sell her out easily under normal circumstances.
The corners of Yao Jun’s mouth twitched as he said, “Boss, can we not sign this? I can swear to the heavens that I will never betray you!”
When Su Li heard his words, she chuckled. “If swearing is useful, what is the government for?”
Yao Jun was speechless. That made sense and he couldn’t refute it.
Su Ze nodded in agreement. “That’s right, that’s right. What’s the use of swearing? Can swearing restrain you or feed you?”
Yao Jun looked helpless. Why was life so difficult for him? Why did he meet this pair of siblings? He was really screwed!
“Sign it!” Su Li handed the paper to Yao Jun.
Yao Jun looked down at the piece of paper and found another excuse. “Um, I don’t know how to read!”
He was not favored at home. His parents did not let him go to school. In addition, he did not like to study and felt that it was useless. After all, being able to read doesn’t feed him. If he had the time, he might as well go to the trees and find a few bird eggs.
Su Li said very understandingly, “It’s okay. I can add your name for you. It’s the same if you put a fingerprint on it later.”
She had already thought of this situation. There were many illiterate people here, so he did not have to sign the indenture himself. A thumbprint had the same effect.
Yao Jun: “…” Why did he feel like he had boarded a pirate ship!
Seeing that Yao Jun looked like he had been forced into prostitution, Su Li reminded him, “Think about it carefully. I didn’t force you. If you put your fingerprint on it, you won’t have a chance to go back on your word.”
Yao Jun looked at Su Li and asked, “If I don’t press this fingerprint today, will
Shi Haishan’s surgery be impossible?”
Su Li raised her eyebrows and said, “I do things according to my heart. If I’m happy, I can not take a single cent. Or if the other party pays my consultation fee, I will also do my best. At the moment, neither of your conditions are suitable.”
“You once came to my courtyard to steal. That person is not related to me. You didn’t pay me any fees. Am I stupid to help you for free?”
She had always done things as she pleased. She could save someone on the way or watch someone die in pain in front of her.
She didn’t want to be a farmer. She wanted to be the hunter with a gun in her hand. If her prey dared to bite back, she could immediately kill them with a gun.
Su Ze nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Moreover, the risk of this matter is so high. If you bite back, where will we go to reason?”
He did not agree to this matter to begin with. He hoped that Yao Jun would not sign this. That way, his sister would not have to operate on Shi Haishan.
The two villains in Yao Jun’s heart began to fight.
The little white person said, “Agree to her. Anyway, you’re alone. It doesn’t matter if you sell yourself or not. Are you going to watch your good brother die in front of you?”
The little black person added, “Don’t put your fingerprint on it. If you do it, you won’t be free in the future. She’s holding your life in her hand. You’ll have to do whatever she tells you to do in the future!”
Seeing Yao Jun’s conflicted expression, Su Li did not rush him. Instead, she stood at the side and waited quietly.
Su Ze pursed his lips. What was there to hesitate about? Couldn’t he just turn around and leave?
After a while, Yao Jun seemed to have made an important decision.
He looked at the paper in Su Li’s hand, gritted his teeth, and took it. He bit his finger and pressed his fingerprint on it.
“Boss, this is for you.” Yao Jun took the paper with the handprint.
The corners of Su Li’s lips curled up as she reached out to take the piece of paper. “Don’t worry, following me will definitely be improve your life as compared to what it is now. When the time comes, marry a wife and give birth to a fat son.
Yao Jun chuckled. “If anyone is willing to follow me, I will definitely treat her well in the future!”
Although this was unlikely, he could not help but yearn for it.
After all, who didn’t like having wives and children?
Su Ze couldn’t help but take another look at Yao Jun. He sold himself just like that?
Su Ze realized that he couldn’t understand Yao Jun. He was clearly a famous rascal, but now he could sell himself for an unrelated person?
Yao Jun felt Su Ze’s gaze. He knew that many people would not understand his actions, but only he knew how warm the bowl of rice Shi Haishan had given him was. Although it was only a bowl of cold rice, he felt that it was even more delicious than delicacies!
Yao Jun looked at Su Li and said, “Boss, when can we do the surgery?”
The longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Shi
Haishan. Last time, Su Li said that if he did not undergo the surgery as soon as
possible, Shi Haishan might die from the pain before long. Therefore, it was
better to undergo the surgery as soon as possible. Otherwise, wouldn’t his
indenture be signed for nothing?
Su Li said, “Carry him to my house. I’ll prepare things at home. We’ll start the surgery as soon as he arrives.”
Coincidentally, the Su family had an empty room. She had asked her parents for their opinion if she could use the room as her workspace. Su Jidong and Jiao Yuying agreed without hesitation.
Because she knew that Shi Haishan might have to undergo surgery, she had already tidied up that room.
Yao Jun hurriedly nodded and said, “Alright, alright. I’ll bring him over now.”
With that, Yao Jun ran out.
Su Li looked at Su Ze and said, “Su Ze, go and help him.”
“Okay!” Su Ze was a little unhappy, but he still chased after Yao Jun’s back.
When Yao Jun returned to that room, Shi Haishan had already fainted from the pain.
Yao Jun’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Shi Haishan lying unconscious on the ground. He walked over and stretched out a finger to check Shi Haishan’s breathing.
He was really scared to death. He thought that Shi Haishan would die as soon as he returned after signing the indenture. Then, he would not even have a place to cry!
Su Ze had just entered the house when he saw Yao Jun’s crazy appearance. He said in disdain, “Are you still leaving?
Yao Jun nodded. “Let’s go!”
Su Ze glanced around the house and tore off a tattered bedsheet.
“What are you doing?” Yao Jun asked.
Su Ze rolled his eyes at him and said, “Of course I’m carrying him over. Do you want to carry him yourself instead?”
Yao Jun swallowed his saliva and pointed at the bedsheet in his hand. “Are you planning to use this bedsheet to carry him?”
It looked like he was wrapping a corpse. How inauspicious!
“What other ways are there? Do you have a problem?” Su Ze shoots back.
Yao Jun looked at Su Ze’s black face and shook his head.. Even if there was a problem, he didn’t dare to say it!
