Chapter 43: Contrasting Family 3
Chapter 3
Shen Hongxi's finger was quickly reattached, and the operation lasted twenty hours.
If Qin Yao had moved more decisively and avoided squeezing the wound, or had simply used a knife to cut the wound cleanly, it would have only taken 2-3 hours.
Shen Hongxi hated Qin Yao.
"When you cut my finger, why didn't you use a knife? You had to use scissors!" Shen Hongxi didn't dare to look at Qi Qi who was sitting next to the window, and just yelled at Qin Yao.
Qin Yao was about to cry, her eyes were wet with tears, and she slammed the door and left.
Chen Lei looked at Qi Qi cautiously, "Sister, should I go and take a look?"
Qi Qi nodded slightly, "Tell Mom that Dad needs care and nutrition after the surgery. Ask her to take 100,000 yuan!"
"One hundred thousand yuan?" Even Shen Hongxi was shocked. One hundred thousand yuan is not a small amount of money.
Qi Qi sneered and looked at Shen Hongxi mockingly, "She's spent more than a hundred thousand yuan on things for her lover. Dad, make sure she's more compatible!"
"Lover?" Chen Lei was shocked. His neck twisted slowly, making a creaking sound like a machine without lubrication.
Shen Hongxi's eyes widened, and he slammed the table and bed with his left hand, the pain instantly making him cry.
Chen Lei was so scared that he quickly pressed the call bell and ran outside. He could still hear the heartache of Shen Hongxi who was cuckolded.
Chen Lei conveyed Qi Qi's meaning to Qin Yao.
Qin Yao's pupils were also shaking. "Your sister didn't say anything else? Like asking me to break up with him or something?"
If it was Qi Qi's request, she would definitely agree.
She didn't want to lose a finger.
Shen Lei shook his head.
He suddenly saw a few familiar figures out of the corner of his eye, "Mom, it looks like my uncle's family!"
Qin Yao also leaned over to look, "Yes, your uncle has always been at odds with our family, and he actually came to see your father?"
Chen Lei shook his head, "No, look, there seems to be something wrong with uncle's hand, there's so much blood..."
The two of them just glanced at each other casually and didn't take it to heart.
Qin Yao was afraid that Qi Qi would cause her trouble again, so she immediately called her lover, not even minding that her son was right next to her.
"What, no money?" Qin Yao's voice rose. "Gao Ping, how much money have I spent on you over the years I've been with you? When our family was rich, the shoes and watches I bought you were worth more than a hundred thousand. It's only in the past two years that our family has become poor, but I still bought you a lot of things. Now you tell me you have no money?"
Chen Lei wanted to cover his ears. Listening to his mother asking for money from her lover was really a bit hard on his little heart.
He felt like he was still a child.
He stood against the wall, his thoughts wandering.
Their family used to be quite wealthy. Although not extremely wealthy, they were considered middle class. Both parents had jobs and their house did not need a mortgage. When other families did not have bicycles, they already had three bicycles.
Nowadays, other families have cars, but they still have three bicycles.
I can only say that things are unpredictable.
He sighed as he listened to the end of the conversation on his mother's side.
She was so angry that she almost threw the phone away. After hanging up, Qin Yao came over and complained to Shen Lei: "It's okay if you don't give me 100,000 yuan, but you won't even give me 10,000 yuan. What the hell have I been raising all these years!"
"Love!" said Shen Lei.
"Pa!" Qin Yao slapped Shen Lei on the head, "Do you think you're funny?"
Qin Yao and Shen Lei returned to the ward. Qin Yao was a little trembling, but Shen Lei was not afraid at all. He said directly: "Mom didn't ask for money. That... Uncle Gao won't give it!"
"Uncle Gao?" Shen Hongxi's voice rose, almost breaking through the roof. "Your father's head is already cuckolded so high! You call him Uncle Gao?"
Chen Lei glanced at Qi Qi's expression and muttered softly, "It's not just me who knows, my sister knows everything too!"
"You!" Shen Hongxi grabbed the pillow and almost threw it over.
Qi Qi spoke calmly, interrupting the tense exchange between the three of them. "Dad, you have to be understanding of Mom. It hasn't been easy for her these past few years. You were so busy with work and didn't care about her. And then you became addicted to gambling and didn't take family seriously. It's understandable that Mom cheated on you."
Qin Yao nodded quickly, fearing that if she acted a little later, other mistakes would occur.
Shen Hongxi laughed wildly, and when he raised his head, he found that he was in tears. He beat his chest and stamped his feet like a mad gorilla.
To prevent his finger from being injured again, the doctor wrapped his other fingers together with tape to make a shell.
Shen Hongxi cried enough and didn't say a word. She lay motionless on the bed as if she was dead.
"At least the two children are yours!" Qi Qi comforted Shen Hongxi.
Qin Yao looked embarrassed. She had imagined herself being caught cheating countless times, but she had never imagined it would be like this.
Qin Yao felt full of guilt towards Shen Hongxi. Thinking back on all these years, she had been obsessed with Gao Ping.
Although Shen Hongxi gambles, he doesn't hit anyone. He used to be quite handsome and had a decent job. It's just that his gambling habit has affected his work in recent years.
Why is she so obsessed with that loser that she won't even give him back the 100,000 yuan?
In the following days, Qin Yao took good care of Shen Hongxi. When Shen Hongxi was able to be discharged from the hospital, the family left the hospital peacefully without any quarrels.
Seeing his parents become like this, Chen Lei was afraid that Qi Qi would do something to him too, so he tried very hard to find a job these days. Even if the job was hard and tiring, he would work for a few days.
The summer vacation passed in a flash, and Qi Qi returned to school again. The heavy atmosphere at home also eased a lot.
Shen Hongxi should hate Qin Yao, and Qin Yao should be afraid of Shen Hongxi, but because of Qi Qi, the two of them can't help but feel some sympathy.
After Qi Qi left, the two of them became even closer and are now a loving couple.
Let the past be the past. Everyone has a past.
But the money in the house is gone.
Chen Hongxi discussed, "Otherwise, I'll sue Gao Ping. Isn't it said that joint property between husband and wife can be recovered?"
Qin Yao slapped her head and said, "You're right. I still have the receipts for the things I bought him. Let's calculate how much we can get back!"
Gao Ping didn't know that he was about to go through a lawsuit.
However, Shen Qi's family has begun to suffer.
First, Shen Chendong accidentally hit his left hand while working, causing it to be crushed by the blender and unable to be recovered, so he had to have it amputated.
After Shen Chendong's amputation, Shen Qi's mother went out and met a handsome young man. For some reason, he ran away with the family's money.
Fortunately, Shen Chendong’s hand had the surgery first, otherwise Shen Chendong wouldn’t even be able to get the money for the surgery.
The third year of high school was about to begin, and the turning point of fate happened at this moment. Shen Qi was so anxious that sores appeared on her mouth.
She hurriedly found the altar she had set up, a small mound of earth behind her old house.
That was the wish she made when she was a child. After her brother bullied her, she was beaten by both her parents and ran here.
She hopes that her parents have a good relationship, that her brother is a sister-con, and that everything Qi Qi has can be given to her.
So from that day on, her parents really started to have a better relationship. They used to only care about her brother and ignore her less, and they even started to care about her life.
Needless to say, her brother used to bully her, but he never did that again.
Her academic performance is getting better and better, and her appearance is getting more and more beautiful.
In contrast, Qi Qi's condition was getting worse and worse.
She had something to hide, so she paid more attention to Qi Qi's situation.
She found that as long as Qi Qi lived badly, she would live better.
If Qi Qi's father gambles, her father will make money; if Qi Qi's mother cheats, her mother will care more about the family; if Qi Qi's brother is uneducated, her brother will be more motivated and outstanding.
And her! Qi Qi likes top students, and top students like her. The more setbacks Qi Qi encounters, the smoother her life will be.
The two people who originally had an ordinary relationship were such an obvious control group.
After several experiments, Shen Qi became more determined to make Qi Qi unlucky.
But everything went wrong with that confession.
Qi Qi was supposed to confess his feelings to Han Yifang and then be rejected by Han Yifang, but Qi Qi did not go.
From that day on, everything went in the wrong direction.
Chen Qi looked at the small mound. In front of the mound were many tributes, which were brought by Chen Qi every time he came.
"Why, why did it turn out like this!"
Because her father had an accident and her mother eloped, her brother dropped out of school and came home to take care of her father so that she could go to school.
But within a few days, the brother's attitude changed completely. He was no longer the brother who loved his sister. Instead, he began to blame Shen Qi, thinking that it was Shen Qi's burden that prevented him from continuing his studies.
Chen Qi knelt in front of the small mound and kowtowed repeatedly, "Please, let me return my life, please let me return my life."
"not good!"
Shen Qi looked at the mound in shock, only to realize that the sound was not coming from the mound, but from the words spoken by Qi Qi who was standing not far away.
Chen Qi tried to block the small mound in panic, but she soon found that this action had no effect at all. She looked up and told herself that even if Qi Qi appeared here, she would not know what the small mound represented, and there was no need for her to hide the existence of the small mound.
Qi Qi looked at Shen Qi for a while, and let out a laugh from his chest, "My life is back, and you are about to become a person that everyone hates."
Shen Qi immediately stood up and shouted at Qi Qi, "Impossible, how could you possibly know! That's not right!"
She looked towards the altar, knelt beside it, and cupped the soil in her hands, making the top of the pile more pointed, just like her voice now, "You can't beat me. I will have the best life."
