late bloomer

Chapter 208

Xia Guoping walked over with a sullen face, and ordered Chen Zhihang, "Kneel down!"

Chen Zhihang, who had a wound on his face, showed fear, and immediately knelt down in front of Bai Xiaochen and Lin Xiyao upon hearing this.

Bai Xiaochen and Lin Xiyao were taken aback, and looked at Xia Guoping without knowing why.

"Brother Zhihang, what happened?" Lin Xiyao's face was full of astonishment.

Could it be that he offended Xia Guoping?

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhihang suddenly kowtowed to them, "Bang bang bang", the sound of his forehead hitting the cold ground echoed in the narrow space.

"Brother Zhihang, what are you doing? Get up!" Lin Xiyao was so frightened that she tried to help him up, but Xia Guoping stopped her.

"Yaoyao, make him kneel!"

"Uncle Ping, what happened?" Lin Xiyao asked in surprise.

Ye Lanfeng also looked at Xia Guoping inexplicably.

Xia Guoping turned to Chen Zhihang with a cold tone: "Chen Zhihang, tell them the truth about what you have done! Otherwise, don't blame my subordinates for being merciless!"

When Chen Zhihang heard this, he trembled with fright. Judging from his disheveled clothes and wounds on his face, he should have suffered before.

He kowtowed his head a few more times, until his forehead was broken, and the bright red blood looked very dazzling.

"Aunt Bai, Yaoyao, I'm sorry..."

Bai Xiaochen and Lin Xiyao looked at each other.

Xia Guoping asked, "Xiaochen, are you still taking antipsychotics?"

Although Bai Xiaochen was angry because he ate tofu at the beach that day, seeing the situation at the moment was very wrong, it was not good to get mad at him, so he nodded: "Eat."

Xia Guoping: "From today onwards, don't take any more medicines. Throw away all the medicines."

Lin Xiyao's eyes widened: "Uncle Ping, why? Mom's medicine must never be stopped!"

Xia Guoping sighed: "Xiaochen, you don't have a mental illness at all! It's this brat's fault!"

The people in the house were surprised.

Bai Xiaochen was even more bewildered.

"Uncle Ping, what's going on?" Ye Lanfeng asked.

Xia Guoping: "This kid, for the sake of money, he did something outrageous!"

Chen Zhihang said with a trembling voice: "Aunt Bai, Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I was obsessed with ghosts back then, and I shouldn't have drugged Auntie's coffee. It's just that I really needed money at that time, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to work ..."

Many years ago, before Lin Ziqiang was imprisoned, Bai Xiaochen often visited a certain coffee shop.The person who often entertains her is a young man, who is Chen Zhihang who works part-time in the coffee shop.Then one day, a noble lady found him. Knowing that he was short of money, the noble lady said that she could give him a sum of money on the condition that she would do one thing for her, which was to put some kind of medicine in Bai Xiaochen's coffee.The lady's explanation was that Bai Xiaochen did something shameful and seduced her man, just to teach her a lesson.

Chen Zhihang knew it was wrong to harm others, but he really couldn't resist the temptation of money. In addition, the lady repeatedly stated that this medicine would not kill people, but at most it would make people look ugly, like drunk and crazy. Chen Zhihang letter, agreed The conditions proposed by the lady.

In the following days, every time Bai Xiaochen went to the coffee shop, as long as Chen Zhihang was around, the coffee she drank was no longer pure coffee, but coffee mixed with some kind of drug. When the drug was dissolved in the coffee, it would become colorless and tasteless. So all this time, Bai Xiaochen didn't know.

After Chen Zhihang administered the medicine to Bai Xiaochen, he lived uneasy every day, worried that something unexpected might happen.

Until one day, when Bai Xiaochen was drinking coffee, she suddenly received a call about her husband Lin Ziqiang being arrested and imprisoned. She suddenly became very emotional and broke the coffee cup in her hand, with a hideous expression on her face. After rushing out of the coffee shop, she ran wildly on the road, and then got a kitchen knife from nowhere, and chopped anyone she saw...

Chen Zhihang, who was pursuing Lin Xiyao at that time, did not know the relationship between Lin Xiyao and Bai Xiaochen until that day, and he finally understood what kind of medicine the lady gave him, it was a kind of spirit that could disrupt the nerve function of the brain If people take a small amount of these drugs for a long time, they will aggravate the disorder of brain function when they are mentally stimulated, and then appear a series of symptoms of mental illness. Therefore, Bai Xiaochen was diagnosed as a mental illness...

Each of Bai Xiaochen's subsequent illnesses was due to re-exposure to such drugs.

Chen Zhihang knew he was wrong, but he was already in deep trouble because he was threatened by the lady. If he didn't follow through, the lady would ruin his reputation, drop out of school, and even find no job in City A.But as long as he is obedient, the lady will arrange her to be admitted to Guangling Hospital, the most famous aristocratic hospital with the best benefits in City A.

Chen Zhihang finally compromised.

He came from a rural area, and his family was extremely poor. After he was admitted to university, his family had collected enough for his one-year tuition fee, and they could no longer afford the extra money for his living expenses, so he had to work part-time while studying.He was desperate for poverty, so he vowed to create a piece of sky in City A.After graduation, with the help of the lady, he entered Guangling Hospital, which made his classmates jealous.

His life is gradually getting better, but the guilt in his heart continues unabated, and he likes Lin Xiyao, so he treats her even more desperately over the years, except for her, he can't love any girl anymore any interest.He hoped to stay by her side all the time, taking care of their mother and daughter, to atone for the sins he committed.

He thought that after the noble lady left City A, the coffee shop of that year disappeared, and no one would ever know about the bad things he did.

But he never imagined that after all these years, someone would still find out.

When Xia Guoping appeared in front of him, a strong uneasiness flooded him. He knew that he was finished. He never thought that Xia Guoping would be so capable. What happened years ago was found out...

He just knelt in front of Bai Xiaochen and Lin Xiyao, telling his crimes with tears streaming down his face.

"Aunt Bai, Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." He said "I'm sorry" over and over again, knocking his head one after another.

Bai Xiaochen stood there motionless with a white face, her lips were trembling, and her limbs were trembling.How could she have thought that the perfect boy in her mind would have such a vicious side, back then, she kept persuading her daughter to be with him...

Lin Xiyao here's face was flushed red because of her anger, she stared at Chen Zhihang bitterly, and it took a long time before she uttered a few words: "Brother Zhihang, you are lying, aren't you?"

Her voice was trembling.

Ye Lanfeng hugged her gently.

Chen Zhihang raised his head, and when he met Xia Guoping's sharp gaze, his body trembled. How could he dare to lie at this moment?

"Yaoyao, I'm sorry. Back then I really needed money, but my feelings for you were true. I never lied to you!"

With a "slap", Chen Zhihang was slapped across the face.

Lin Xiyao stood in front of him, raised her right hand, "slapped", and struck down again.

"Chen Zhihang, how could you do such an outrageous thing for a little money? Do you know how my mother and I got here all these years?" Lin Xiyao pointed at him, her whole body trembling with anger.

There was blood seeping from the corner of Chen Zhihang's mouth, but he didn't care at all, and said nervously: "Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Don't hate me! Forgive me, please? I was wrong!"

Ye Lanfeng said with a sullen face: "Chen Zhihang, do you think you can reverse the suffering that Aunt Bai and Xiyao have suffered for many years if you are sorry?"

"I know I was wrong, Yaoyao..."

"Who is that lady?" Bai Xiaochen, who had been silent all this time, asked.

"It's Yaoyao's aunt, Wang Ziyu." Chen Zhihang replied immediately.

Bai Xiaochen's body swayed and was about to fall, Xia Guoping hurriedly supported her.She broke his hand away: "Don't touch me!"

"Why would she do this?"

"She said, Auntie, you... seduced her man..."

Bai Xiaochen was stunned: "The man who seduced her?"

Where did this come from?

Chen Zhihang said: "She...she said so. She didn't tell me who it was."

Bai Xiaochen lowered her eyes. Ever since she married Lin Ziqiang, she has always done her duty and never done anything out of the ordinary. She has no contact with her husband, who is Yaoyao's uncle, and only greets her when they meet. That's all, how can you seduce her man?

She couldn't think of a reason even if she tried her best.

Maybe, Wang Ziyu just found an excuse to bully her like before.She thought so.

But Lin Xiyao already clearly understood what happened.

Aunt Wang Ziyu and father Lin Ziqiang were lovers before they met their mother!
And they also have the crystallization of love - Lin Jingjing.

When Lin Xiyao was hesitating whether to tell her mother about it, Bai Xiaochen turned around and went back to the bedroom silently.

Chen Zhihang shouted: "Aunt Bai, I'm sorry, I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Lin Xiyao said coldly: "Chen Zhihang, what do you think of us mother and daughter? Are you treating us like monkeys? Let me tell you, my mother and I will never forgive you!"

Hearing this, Chen Zhihang looked at her in disbelief: "Yaoyao, can't you see how kind I have been to you all these years?"

Lin Xiyao smiled bitterly: "These are good, are you because of guilt? I will remember your kindness, but I will never forget the harm you caused us! Have you ever thought about those innocent people who were hurt?"

She was talking about those people who were chopped up by Lin Xiyao ten years ago.

"I know, but Yaoyao, my kindness to you is sincere!" Chen Zhihang argued.

Ye Lanfeng warned: "Xi Yao is mine, she is the mother of my child, please pay attention to what you say in the future!"

Xia Guoping asked: "Yaoyao, what do you think should be done with him?"

Lin Xiyao said weakly: "Afeng, you can figure it out!"

She really didn't have the energy to face this kind of thing.

A person who has been kind to you for ten years, when you learn that his kindness is actually due to guilt, what kind of feeling does that feel like?
Lin Xiyao had mixed feelings in her heart.

She turned around, walked into Bai Xiaochen's room with heavy steps, and let Chen Zhihang call over and over again: "Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Ye Lanfeng looked at her back, and felt very comforted in her heart. Xi Yao said that Chen Zhihang was handed over to him, which showed that she had regarded him as the most trustworthy and dependent person. What could make him happier than this? ?
Xia Guoping said: "Since Yaoyao said so, then I will leave this kid to you."

Ye Lanfeng nodded: "Put him down first!"

Xia Guoping waved his hand, and his two men immediately escorted Chen Zhihang away.

The panic in Chen Zhihang's heart was self-evident. They didn't plan to hand him over to the police, but did it themselves, and the fear instantly overwhelmed him.He has long known that Ye Lanfeng is a cold-blooded and heartless person, and if he falls into his hands, he will not die or be disabled!
"Yaoyao, save me! I really didn't intend to harm Auntie Bai, but I needed money so much back then. Yaoyao, please, give me a chance to redeem myself..." He yelled hysterically, But soon, his voice disappeared, apparently covered by something.

in the bedroom.

Bai Xiaochen was sitting on a chair in a trance, her heart was extremely complicated, she had long accepted the fact that she was a mental patient, but suddenly, it seemed that the sky was different, someone told her that she was not mentally ill, but because of some The symptoms of psychosis appeared due to the effect of this drug...

It was supposed to be something to be happy about, but at this moment, her heart was extremely heavy, and she couldn't be happy at all.

She didn't know how to face those innocent victims ten years ago, after all, they were injured by her kitchen knife.

She thought of the words "the man who seduced her" in Wang Ziyu's mouth. Who was Wang Ziyu talking about?Could it be Lin Ziqiang?But that was her legal husband!Where does the theory of seduction come from?
She looked at Lin Xiyao beside her, and murmured: "Yaoyao, do you think what your aunt is talking about is your father? Do they have a special relationship before mother?"

The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong. During those years of living in the Lin family mansion, why Wang Ziyu always picked on her and Yaoyao, even after they moved away from the Lin family mansion for many years, it must be the reason.

is it?

How she wished that everything was just her guess and would not become a fact.

Lin Xiyao was silent, she was very conflicted in her heart, should she tell the truth to her mother.In the past, she hid everything from her mother, just because she was worried that she would get sick if she couldn't stand the stimulation.But now I know that my mother does not have a mental illness, and no matter how much stimulation she receives, she will definitely not cause mental illness again.Because Chen Zhihang didn't drug her again in the past two years.

You can't hide this from your mother for the rest of your life!

Lin Xiyao took a deep breath and said softly: "Mom, I'd better tell you the truth. But you must calm down after hearing this, okay?"

Bai Xiaochen nodded.

"Mom, in fact, father and aunt knew each other a long time ago. Before you, they were lovers."

Bai Xiaochen had a calm expression on his face: "That's right. No wonder she always targets our mother and daughter."

Lin Xiyao was surprised by her calmness.

"Mom, actually... Actually, Jingjing was born by my father and my aunt..."

After saying this, Lin Xiyao carefully watched her mother's reaction.

She was terribly worried.

Sure enough, Bai Xiaochen's face immediately turned pale, and an angry light flashed in his eyes: "How could he do such a thing behind my back? Jingjing is younger than you, which means that they still secretly got together after we got married." !"

Lin Xiyao hurriedly said: "Mom, my aunt said, they just... just have sex after drinking!"

"I don't care what they are! In short, he betrayed me, it's a fact!" Bai Xiaochen said excitedly.

Lin Xiyao bowed her head in silence.

There are many things my mother doesn't know.

What kind of reaction would she have if she knew that her father had done something outrageous to her daughter?
"Yaoyao, tell me, where is Lin Ziqiang now? Is he living with Wang Ziyu and the others? Why did he only visit me once after being released from prison for so long? Yaoyao, tell me, is he Didn't you abandon our mother and daughter?"

Lin Xiyao couldn't answer for a moment.

Dad may have really abandoned them.As for whether he lived with Wang Ziyu's mother and daughter, she didn't know.

She doesn't know where her father is now.

"Yaoyao, Afeng must know, right? He must be able to find him. You ask Afeng to find him, and I will ask him face to face!" Bai Xiaochen said excitedly.

in the living room.

Xia Guoping said to Ye Lanfeng: "Afeng, there are some things I haven't found out yet, and I need your help."

Ye Lanfeng nodded: "What does Uncle Ping need from me?"

"Lin Ziqiang!" Xia Guoping said.

After seeing Lin Xiyao walk out of the bedroom, he said with a smile: "Yaoyao, I want to borrow Afeng's time for a day or two, is it okay?"

Lin Xiyao blushed: "Uncle Ping, what did you say? You can use him as you want, you don't need to ask me."

Unexpectedly, Ye Lanfeng hugged her intimately, and said softly: "My husband must get his wife's consent to go out!"

This time, Lin Xiyao's face turned even redder, and she stretched out her hand to punch him: "Damn it, who is your wife! You can go wherever you like, it's none of my business?"

Ye Lanfeng held her hand and hugged her even tighter, with a gentle look on her face: "Fool, I said a long time ago that you can only be mine. You are my wife. Do you think you can still be my wife?" Can you escape?"

His words were a little threatening and a little commanding, but to Lin Xiyao's ears, they felt extremely sweet, she likes his dominance!
Xia Guoping looked at their sweet faces, smiled and said nothing.

At this time, Bai Xiaochen came to them, and regardless of her daughter hugging Ye Lanfeng, she said directly: "Afeng, help Auntie find Lin Ziqiang. I have something to look for him."

Ye Lanfeng let go of Lin Xiyao's hand, nodded and said, "Yes. Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely find Uncle Lin back."

Xia Guoping said: "Yaoyao, the reason I'm looking for Afeng is to find your father."

Lin Xiyao looked at them, puzzled, did they have something to do with their father?But now it's hard for her to ask anything.

Bai Xiaochen said: "Afeng, Xi Yao and I want to go back to City A. Can you help us find some people?"

"who?"

"It's those innocent people who were hacked by me ten years ago. I want to apologize to them face to face." Bai Xiaochen said softly.

All these years, she has been living with guilt, and she went to apologize to them just to feel better, no matter whether those people would forgive her or not, she would do it.Although Lin Xiyao had already apologized to them one by one back then.But Bai Xiaochen always felt that she was the ultimate culprit and she had to go.

Ye Lanfeng nodded and said, "Well, don't worry, Auntie."

No matter in city A or in other cities, there is no one he can't find, unless that person is dead.

Ye Lanfeng called Cheng Yinfan and explained to him.

After hanging up the phone, he said, "Auntie, Xiyao, Yinfan will pick you up then."

Bai Xiaochen said: "Afeng, thank you."

"Well, Auntie, this is what I should do."

Xia Guoping and Ye Lanfeng left quickly, and no one noticed that before Xia Guoping left, he quietly took away one of Lin Xiyao's hair.

That night, Lin Xiyao received a call from Cheng Yinfan. It turned out that Cheng Yinfan had found those injured people back then.

Lin Xiyao couldn't help but admire Cheng Yinfan's efficiency, it was too quick.

"Xi Yao, ask Auntie, do you need to buy any presents? I'll prepare them."

"Wait. I'll give my mother the phone." Lin Xiyao turned around and said a few words to Bai Xiaochen, then handed her the phone.

Bai Xiaochen knew that Cheng Yinfan was Ye Lanfeng's brother, so he was not polite and told Cheng Yinfan what was on his mind.

At the end, Cheng Yinfan said: "Auntie, tell Xi Yao that I will come and pick you up tomorrow morning."

Early the next morning, Cheng Yinfan really showed up. He came by helicopter.

Just like that, Bai Xiaochen and her daughter returned to City A.

Their families went to meet the people who were cut and wounded back then. These people were deeply impressed by the scene back then, so when they saw Bai Xiaochen, they immediately recognized her. Some people roared and pushed Bai Xiaochen out of the door. And throw all the presents away.Bai Xiaochen sincerely apologized to others, and she also understood their feelings, so although she felt a little sad about their anger, she still knelt down in front of them, only begging for their forgiveness. In the end, these angry people People saw her sincerity, and learned that she was not mentally ill, but was just victimized, so they all forgave her.

It took them two days to get forgiveness from all the victims. Although they were very tired, Bai Xiaochen was extremely happy. The knot buried in his heart was finally released after many years.

For the past two days, Cheng Yinfan and his brothers have been by their side all the time, firstly to protect them from any harm, and secondly to work as a coolie to get presents.And Cheng Yinfan didn't have both hands empty, that was hugging Yexi, he felt very strange, this little doll would laugh whenever he saw him, and when he hugged her, she slept peacefully, but as long as she held her When she put it down, the baby cried so loudly that he had to hold her all the time.Fortunately, the little baby didn't weigh a few catties, otherwise, no matter how strong a person is, he would be exhausted to hold it for a whole day.

Bai Xiaochen and Lin Xiyao also felt very strange, Ye Xi seems to be very attached to Cheng Yinfan, what's going on?

After finishing his work, Bai Xiaochen didn't want to stay in City A any longer, so he returned to City B that day.

Before the mother and daughter had time to catch their breath, the doorbell rang, and Lin Xiyao went to open the door, and the scene that greeted her shocked her.

what did she see?
She saw her father, Lin Ziqiang, with a shaved head, only one arm, and dressed in a monk's uniform!
