Fraser burst into laughter and said, “My Dad is capable to frighten me. And you got frightened by him? Jordon, you are the boss of East City!”
“You think I’m kidding?” Jordan shook his head.
“Or what?”
Jordan hesitated for a while before he said, “I tell you a secret about me. After that, you will know if I am kidding or now.”
“Ok.”
“I killed a man.” Jordan’s face became cold.
For a moment, Fraser swallowed and said, “Jordan, you are kidding again.”
“I am not!” Jordan stared at Fraser, “It was my uncle to deal with it for me. He looked for a patient with cancer and let that patient admit the crime.”
Fraser thought to himself: no wonder your uncle could be the boss. He could even find such a way.
If he let a cancer patient to take the liability, he just needed to give some money to his families. Many cancer patients would agree.
Boss Lam was very smart.
Fraser believed Jordan’s words, and at this moment, Fraser realized that Jordan was not kidding.
After all, no one would take his crime to make a joke.
“Jordan, are you a fool? You even told me you killed a person, aren’t you afraid I go to the police station to expose you.” Fraser joked.
“I know you are not that kind of person, besides, it passed for years. You are just a boy, who would believe you?” Jordan said.
“Ok, get to the point, now you know I’m not kidding.
Fraser nodded.
“Ever since I’ve killed someone, I’ve become more and more daring. Whether it’s cutting someone or holding a gun, I don’t shake like I did when I was a novice.”
“Except for people holding guns to my head, or a group of men cutting me with knives and pushing me to a small hutong, I have never been afraid of other things.”
“But just now, I was afraid.”
“Your father came over and stood by your bed for a long time. He just stood there and made me shudder. I’m sure your father has killed someone.” Jordan was assured, “When I looked at his eyes, I seemed to have seem lot of dead people in them.”
“He did not. Don’t wrong a good man, my Dad is an ordinary farmer.” Fraser was angry.
“Farmer? Only you believe it. If a farmer or an ordinary person sees his child being stabbed, he won’t say a word?”
“Your father has a kind of general demeanor. There is a thunder in his heart, but he was calm on the face. This kind of person, no matter in any times, would make great achievement.”
“So I’m sure your father is not simple.”
Hearing that, Fraser thought: my Dad is certainly not so simple, he is a ten billion millionaire.
“Ok, I don’t want to listen to you brag. If you said other things about my Dad, I perhaps would believe you, but I don’t believe my Dad killed a man. Believe it or not, it was my mother to kill chicken for new year.” Fraser said.
But at this time, Douglas walked in from the door.
“Dad, when did you get here?” Fraser cried out happily.
“Just now, Fraser, how is your wound?” Douglas came over and asked with concern, “You covered with blood, it scared me and your mother.”
“See, your mother made old chicken soup and asked me to send it to you, so that you can make up the body.”
Douglas took a look at Jordan, “You are Fraser’s friend?”
“Yes, uncle.”
Jordan nodded but he was flurried, “Uncle, I have other things to deal with, I gotta go.”
“I’ll see you off.” Douglas put down the chicken soup and was to get up to see him off.
Jordan was scared with legs trembling, as if Douglas wanted to kill him.
“No, no.” Jordan waved his hand and quickly slipped out of Fraser’s ward.
“Fraser, don’t make friends with crooked people.” As soon as Jordan left, Douglas showed a serious expression.
