There are indeed ways in which Lin Zhiheng's "body," or rather his physical body, can be exploited by them.
Yi Mingjun, quick-witted, felt guilty and soon turned the tables, speaking sternly to Lin Qingyan: "Young lady, I really don't like what you're saying. We are Xiao Heng's parents. For parents to love their child and you to call it exploitation is truly despicable."
I don't know why you have to doubt us? But what you said hurt us deeply. We are Xiaoheng's biological parents. All we can do for him is love. We want him to have a better life, a happier family, and a more fulfilling life.
Why can't you understand the eagerness and longing of parents who want the best for their child and want to reunite with them? You say we have ulterior motives for wanting to reunite with Xiao Heng, so if you insist on keeping Xiao Heng here, then tell us your motives.”
Lin Qingyan found it amusing; this person was taking the initiative and acting quite convincingly.
“I didn’t insist on leaving Xiao Heng here. It’s Xiao Heng who doesn’t want to go with you. Can’t you hear me?”
"You!" Liu Xiangrong exclaimed anxiously, "You're really rude. I don't know what will happen to Xiao Heng if he continues to live with you. We must take Xiao Heng away."
"Then let's see if you can take him away?"
Lin Qingyan and Granny Lin both shielded Lin Zhiheng behind them. Lin Qingyan said, "Saying more is useless. You should leave here now, I'm closing the door."
When the Yi couple saw that Lin Zhiheng was hiding behind Granny Lin and Lin Qingyan and showed no intention of going with them, they were disappointed once again.
Why is it so difficult for them to take their biological son away?
Yi Mingjun's mind raced. He put on his kind mask and coaxed Lin Zhiheng, "Xiao Heng doesn't want to come with us right now. It must be because he hasn't spent enough time with us yet. He's not used to being with us. Xiao Heng, let's spend more time with him. Dad will take you to a state-run restaurant for dinner now. Come with Dad."
Once Lin Zhiheng is in the car, no matter what method is used, we must not allow him to get off again; we will drive all the way back to Beijing.
"I'm not going." Lin Zhiheng shook his head decisively in refusal.
"Mom and Dad will take you to a state-run restaurant for lunch first, and then we'll go shopping for clothes and food, okay?"
"I don't want your stuff. I can earn money and buy it myself."
Lin Qingyan: "Did you hear that clearly? Xiao Heng doesn't need you at all. Xiao Heng, do you want them to leave as soon as possible?"
Lin Zhiheng nodded, then walked up to Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong and said, "I don't care how I lost my life before, and I don't care what you think of me, whether you say I'm unfilial or heartless, I just want to live my own life."
I've had enough of those sixteen years of hardship and destitution. I've finally found someone who truly cares for me, and we're very happy together. Please, just let me go. Go away, don't come looking for me again. Just pretend you never found me.
Lin Qingyan said to the Yi couple, "You heard what Xiao Heng said, right? If you really care about him, then let him live a peaceful life here."
“We just want to give him a better life.” Yi Mingjun’s brows were furrowed, and his tone of voice changed with anxiety.
"He's perfectly content right now. Nothing you could give him would compare to this. Is that enough? Can he walk now?"
Lin Qingyan knew that driving her parents away like this was a bit cruel, but what could she do when her parents were inherently cruel people?
Granny Lin was simple and brutal in dealing with people. Seeing that Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong still wouldn't leave even after Lin Qingyan chased them away, she went directly to the corner of the wall, grabbed a broom, and waved it in front of Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong.
"Are you leaving or not? If you're not leaving, I'll just start hitting you. Hehe, if you insist on staying here so I can practice on you, why should I be polite?"
As he spoke, he first grabbed a broom and hit Yi Mingjun with it.
Yi Mingjun: "..."
Didn't we ask them if they were coming or not? Why didn't we give them time to negotiate or react before starting the fight?
Yi Mingjun was hit by Granny Lin's broom, and then he pulled Liu Xiangrong back a few steps to avoid Granny Lin's broom attack.
Liu Xiangrong was absolutely furious. She and Yi Mingjun were both adored in Beijing, but they had never been chased away with a broom before.
This uncouth old woman from the countryside actually hit them with a broom.
She couldn't hold back any longer. Instead of scolding Granny Lin, she angrily started cursing Lin Zhiheng.
"It's all because of you, you ungrateful wretch! We've pleaded with you and said all the nice things we could, but you just won't get it. I went through so much trouble to bring you into this world, and this is the result. If I had known this would happen, I would have preferred not to have you at all. You're a heartless wretch with no humanity whatsoever. You're not even worth a single hair on Jin'er's head."
"Jin'er? Who is Jin'er?" Granny Lin reacted very quickly at this moment and was the first to ask this question.
Yi Mingjun: "..."
This silly old woman is quite good at grasping the key points.
He didn't actually want Liu Xiangrong to reveal Jin'er's existence. If Lin Zhiheng didn't know about Jin'er's existence, he would see himself as their only one, making it easier to trick Lin Zhiheng into going home.
Now that Liu Xiangrong had let it slip, he knew that continuing to hide it would backfire, so he openly admitted it.
“Xiao Heng, there’s something we didn’t tell you earlier. Jin’er is our other child, your older brother. Did you know? You have an older brother waiting for you in Beijing. He talks about you every day; he misses you terribly. Come home with us, and the four of us can be reunited. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?”
"elder brother?"
A light seemed to reappear in Lin Zhiheng's eyes, but it quickly dimmed again.
“Now that you have a son, you need me even less. I’ve decided to sever all ties with the past and won’t be held back by anyone. Brother, just pretend I never existed.”
"Xiao Heng, can you really bear to abandon so many relatives? We are all related to you by blood."
"I can bear it, I can bear it so much, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times," Grandma Lin said, seemingly unconcerned.
"Old woman, we didn't ask you anything, why are you being so nosy?" Liu Xiangrong snapped at Granny Lin.
“I can bear it too,” Lin Zhiheng said. “What does it matter if we’re related by blood? My sister and mother-in-law aren’t related to me by blood, but they are the people I’m closest to.”
Lin Qingyan clapped her hands and gestured to Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong to leave: "So, you two are unrelated people, please leave."
Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong were reluctant to leave, but they only hesitated for a moment before Grandma Lin's broom came slamming down on them.
*Clap clap clap clap*
"Get out, get out of here right now, you son of a bitch, don't hang around our Xiao Heng anymore."
Grandma Lin chased Yi Mingjun and Liu Xiangrong out of the door and closed the gate.
