They lamented the twists of fate and felt sorrow for Chen Jingyu's plight.
An older brother in the group said, "Chen Jingyu died unjustly. Let's use the money from the returned Red Envelopes to buy her a burial plot."
"Let her rest in peace on her journey to the afterlife."
This proposal received a positive response from everyone.
They all began to withdraw their contributions according to the records.
Except for one person.
It was Xiao Ma.
She did not return her money.
That night, I had a dream.
In my dream, Xiao Ma appeared before me.
I asked her, "If you could do it all over again, would you still make the same choice?"
She gave a bitter smile and replied, "No."
"After all, such things come with consequences."
"This whole situation was a mistake from the very beginning."
"It wasn't your fault, nor mine."
"It was those owners who looked down on Chen Jingyu and urged her to send Red Envelopes!"
I began to follow Li Baoqiang and managed to add him on WeChat through some means.
We became online friends.
The more we chatted, the more familiar we became.
Under some coaxing, he talked about the accident that happened six years ago.
Six years ago, he was working at a construction site.
That day, he and his colleagues were operating a crane to lift a batch of steel beams.
During the lifting process, he noticed that the center of gravity of the hook was off.
He informed the operator, but the operator ignored his warning.
Frustrated, he adjusted the hook slightly.
Unexpectedly, the operator lifted the crane and it struck the track beam, resulting in an immediate death.
The deceased was named Yang and was a fitter.
Li Baoqiang lost his job as a result.
I asked him, "What is your attitude towards Yang's family?"
Li Baoqiang replied, "I paid five thousand yuan!"
"Besides, if that fitter named Yang hadn’t stubbornly refused to listen, he wouldn’t have died."
"It was his own fault; it has nothing to do with me!"
"I didn't even ask him for money; I considered myself lucky!"
I widened my eyes, filled with shock and hatred.
Li Baoqiang actually showed no signs of remorse!
This ignited a deeper hatred within me!
I wanted to take revenge on him!
You see, Li Baoqiang had always been fond of gambling.
He often visited lottery stations and played mahjong.
I took advantage of this, using gaming as an excuse to lure him to gambling websites.
I set a trap for him to fall into.
Li Baoqiang fell into online debt, and to cover his losses, he chose to embezzle company funds.
In the end, the company fired Li Baoqiang.
He ended up living in a small apartment in the neighborhood.
Coincidentally, I moved into the same neighborhood.
Although we were just online acquaintances, he had seen me but did not recognize me.
Now, Li Baoqiang lived like a rat in a sewer.
He survived on the support of his mentally ill mother.
Yet I felt it wasn't enough.
As time passed, I gradually became closer to Xiao Ma.
One day, I pretended to casually show her a game on my phone that involved sending Red Envelopes.
I told her it was just an ordinary game.
After sending the Red Envelope, the system would refund double the amount.
Xiao Ma fell for it.
I felt a sense of satisfaction inside.
Because Li Baoqiang caused my father's death, I would make him pay!
Li Baoqiang was fired from his company for embezzlement.
To escape his debts, he rented a place in a community.
And I moved into the same community.
Although Li Baoqiang and I were online acquaintances, he did not know me.
Now, he lived like a rat in a sewer.
He depended on his mentally unstable mother to survive.
News in the Owner Group revealed that Chen Ranran's death had been ruled by the police as a heart attack.
But I suspected it had something to do with Li Baoqiang.
Just then, Zhao Jianming was found hanged in the elevator!
I was sure this was the work of Li Baoqiang.
Because he had completely lost his mind.
I decided to use the girl on the fifth floor to lure out Li Baoqiang.
I put up a drawing on the Fire Alarm Box.
I knew that Li Baoqiang often moved through the Garbage Chute and hid in the water tank on the rooftop.
I deliberately led the police to Li Baoqiang's home.
Since his house was already sealed off, Li Baoqiang would enter when no one was around to gather supplies and move about.
The police discovered the ajar passage and began to capture Li Baoqiang.
In the chaos, I ran into Li Baoqiang.
His eyes glinted with menace as he grabbed me.
I shouted his online name, "Mo Lu!"
"You are the one who caused my father's death!"
Li Baoqiang was taken aback.
Then, he let me go.
The police asked if there was anything else I wanted to do.
I said, "I want to visit my father's grave."
In that moment, I felt a deep longing and a sense of helplessness against fate.
