In her previous life, Xu Miaomiao was sensitive and thoughtful. She was misled by her stepsister, a white lotus, causing her to become estranged from her family. She was also manipulated by her ste...
When Huang Linlin and Sister Zhao arrived, people from the political department of the army were already waiting for them.
It’s not like someone hasn’t contacted the Political Department before, reporting quarrels and fights at home, but most of them were just verbal disputes.
So after the Political Department received the call from the Women's Federation and heard how terrible the incident was, coupled with the recent rumors, the Political Department took this matter very seriously.
Two of the people who came this time are directors of their political department, which shows how much importance they attach to this matter.
A few people first introduced themselves to each other and learned that the two directors were Director Dong and Deputy Director Hao.
Sister Zhao didn't have the heart to greet them. The pace of women's liberation has been getting faster and faster in recent years, and she hasn't encountered such a bad case for a long time.
She handed the prepared materials to Director Dong and said, "Soldiers are supposed to protect our country, and we admire them very much."
"But even if they have made contributions to the country, they can't bully their wives like this, right?"
"Look at the way Comrade Huang Linlin was beaten. There's not a single piece of healthy flesh on her body. She even aborted a baby a few months old."
"That's his own flesh and blood too?!"
Sister Zhao became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she even started banging her head on the table after the last sentence.
Just at this time, the two directors also saw the photos that Xu Miaomiao took of Huang Linlin in the information.
Combined with her medical records in the hospital, it was truly shocking and they were also very surprised.
They also knew Zheng Yi. Although they were not very familiar with him, they had met him several times.
He looks like a well-mannered young man, but I didn't expect that he is such a person in private. It really shows that you can't judge a book by its cover.
Seeing the tension building, Deputy Director Hao quickly stepped in to smooth things over. "Comrade Zhao, calm down. We definitely won't shield someone like that."
"Once we have thoroughly investigated the matter, we will definitely seek justice for Comrade Huang Linlin!"
As he spoke, he quickly called out to the orderly standing by, "Xiao Liu, pour a glass of water for Comrade Zhao and Comrade Huang first."
The orderly who was eating watermelon enthusiastically hurried forward with a thermos and poured a cup of hot water for Sister Zhao and Huang Linlin.
At this time, Director Dong also finished reading the materials they prepared, which detailed the events of Huang Linlin and Zheng Yi from the time they met to the present.
Director Dong looked at Huang Linlin, who was sitting quietly with a cup of water in her arms. The scab on her forehead had not fallen off yet.
He is already in his forties and has a daughter who is not much younger than her. Seeing her like this, he can't help but feel uncomfortable.
So he lowered his voice and asked, "Comrade Huang, are you saying that before you married Zheng Yi, you didn't know that he was married and had a son?"
Huang Linlin looked at him, nodded slowly and said, "Yes, he never told me he was married and had a son before we got married."
"It wasn't until after we got married that I got pregnant..." When talking about her pregnancy, Huang Linlin was stunned for a moment, probably because she was thinking of her child who was never able to come to the world to see her.
But she quickly calmed down and continued, "After I became pregnant, he suddenly told me that he was married and had a son who was being raised by his mother in his hometown."
"I was very angry and had a big argument with him, but I already had a child at the time."
"For the sake of the child, and he said that even if I took the child here, it wouldn't affect me and the child."
"But I didn't expect that he would change after the child came. He didn't like me and tried to harass me in various ways."
"He wants whatever he can get if he doesn't have anything at home. If I don't buy it for him, he'll make a scene at home."
"He gets visited by neighbors all the time, and I have no choice but to do whatever he wants."
Director Dong listened to her narration and slowly frowned. He had also heard about this matter. The family compound was so small that everyone would know about it after it was spread around.
Seeing that no one interrupted her, Huang Linlin continued speaking slowly.
"But even though I was so humble, he wouldn't give in. He complained to Zheng Yi every day."
"At first he didn't take it seriously and just told the child to be obedient, but later..."
As Huang Linlin spoke, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Then one time he came back in a bad mood, and the child complained that I didn't give him food."
"We argued for a few minutes, and he got so excited that he slapped me. I was stunned, and so was he."
"But he quickly came to his senses, held my hand, slapped himself, apologized and said it wouldn't happen again."
When she said this, two round tears rolled down the corners of Huang Linlin's eyes, but her expression did not change at all, and she was still calm.
"After that, he often fought with me. Before he finished beating me, he would kneel down and apologize, crying and begging."
"At first I could still bear it, but until... until someone told me that if I continued like this, my child would be doomed."
"I thought she was right, so I decided to move out first and wait until the baby was born."
"I knew that if I told him directly, he would definitely not agree, so I secretly packed my things and prepared to leave."
"But the kid found out and locked me in the house. I told Zheng Yi when he came back that night."
Huang Linlin took a deep breath and recalled that nightmarish day. Sister Zhao, who was sitting next to her, held her cold hand, and she couldn't bear to let her say anything more.
"Shall I tell them the rest?"
Huang Linlin knew that she was worried about herself, but now she would no longer be sad about these things.
She patted Sister Zhao's hand gently and said with a smile, "I'm fine, don't worry."
"That night, after Zheng Yi knew I wanted to escape, he went crazy and refused to listen to my explanation."
"He... threw me to the ground, sat on me, and punched me repeatedly."
"He was so strong that no matter how hard I struggled, I couldn't get away. I could only protect my stomach with both hands, fearing that he would hit the baby."
"I thought he was done with the beating, but he stood up and started kicking me."
"I was so exhausted that my stomach hit the table legs several times, but I was in pain all over and didn't feel anything was wrong."
"From that day on, he tied me up and locked me in the house. He didn't give me any food and only gave me two bowls of water a day."
As she spoke, she laughed again. "He said he was worried that I would have enough energy to run away after eating. He said he did this because he loved me."
"You're doing this because you're afraid of losing me. Isn't that ironic?"
She looked at everyone in the room and asked questions softly. There was always a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were calm as if she was telling someone else's story.
