Chapter 208: Mom



After comforting Zhou Mingli, Zhang Chunxue went to check on Song Yanshen's condition.

Song Yanshen was still unconscious.

I touched his head and found a big bump on the back. It was obvious that Zhong Chengren had hit him quite hard.

Zhang Chunxue was thinking that if Song Yanshen was still not well, she would take him to the hospital.

Just as she carefully put Song Yanshen's head back on the pillow, Song Yanshen's eyelids moved.

He spoke almost the moment he opened his eyes: "Sister! Be careful!"

His words were still unclear, but the words echoed in the small room and all three of them could hear them clearly.

Zhou Mingli's emotions, which had finally calmed down, surged again, and she burst into tears again: "Xiao Shen! You're awake! It's so good... so good..."

Zhang Chunxue felt relieved. She couldn't help but touch Song Yanshen's head and said, "It's okay, it's okay, Xiaoshen. We're home now."

Song Yanshen blinked his eyes and saw Zhang Chunxue in front of him clearly. His original fear disappeared instantly.

He was confused for a moment, but quickly reacted. He looked around and saw Song Xingzhi looking at him with concern, and Zhou Mingli crying beside him.

When he saw Zhong Yuanyuan in Song Xingzhi's arms, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He looked at Zhang Chunxue and opened his mouth: "Mom."

This time, the words were extremely clear.

Zhang Chunxue was stunned at first, and then her heart softened.

"Yeah, Mom's here."

She touched his face and asked, "Are you feeling anything else now? Like a little dizzy or nauseous?"

Song Yanshen let out an honest "ah".

Zhang Chunxue frowned immediately: "You may have a mild concussion, so don't get up. Just rest at home for the next two days."

Song Yanshen obediently let out an "ah".

Zhang Chunxue pondered for a moment, "Just say whatever you want to say. Even if you can't express it clearly, that's fine. Just speak boldly. The more you speak, the more proficient you will become!"

Song Yanshen hesitated for a moment before speaking vaguely, "Stall... stall%¥&?"

Although they didn't hear clearly what he said, they knew at a glance that Song Yanshen was worried about the braised food stall and their business.

Zhang Chunxue was a bit amused and said, "Are you still worried about this?"

Her tone was serious: "None of this is as important as you! And your eldest sister needs to recuperate for a few days, so we won't be setting up the stall for the next few days."

When Song Yanshen saw that Zhou Mingli was still sobbing, he mumbled "OK".

Zhou Mingli remembered that she hadn't made dinner yet, so she immediately wiped away her tears and stopped crying.

"I, I'm going to make dinner..."

Zhang Chunxue and Song Xingzhi were both at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Song Xingzhi couldn't help but shake his head: "How can you cook when you're like this? I'm afraid you'll start crying again while I'm cooking. I'm afraid the food tonight will be too salty!"

Zhou Mingli immediately looked at Zhang Chunxue: "Mom! Look at Dad! He's laughing at me!"

Zhang Chunxue couldn't help laughing: "Who told you to cry so much?"

She took Zhou Mingli's hand again: "But it's a good thing to cry and release your emotions..."

She and Song Xingzhi looked at each other.

Zhang Chunxue stood up and said, "I'll go cook! Mingli, you stay with Xiaoshen."

Song Xingzhi also carried Zhong Yuanyuan to Zhou Mingli and said, "We can't just let this go. I'm going to report this to the police!"

Zhou Mingli nodded heavily.

Zhang Chunxue and Song Xingzhi left Song Yanshen's room. They looked at each other with serious expressions.

Song Xingzhi lowered his voice: "Something must have gone wrong... I've been having people keep an eye on him!"

"I'm going to the police station now. After I report the case, I'll go find my people and ask them what's going on!"

Zhang Chunxue also nodded: "Then be careful... I'll wait for you to come back for dinner."

Song Xingzhi shook his head: "Don't wait for me, I don't know when I can come back."

Zhang Chunxue looked at Song Yanshen's room, stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips, then said with a blush: "I'll wait for you to come back."

Song Xingzhi's heart was burning with desire and he really wanted to do something.

But he knew that there were more important things to do now, so he just lowered his head and kissed Zhang Chunxue on the lips before turning and leaving.

Song Xingzhi first went to the police station to report the case and recorded his statement.

The police station immediately took action and prepared to go to Zhong Chengren's home to arrest him.

After Song Xingzhi left, he turned around and went to find the person he had arranged.

But after searching for a while and not finding them, Song Xingzhi even suspected that something had happened to them.

Song Xingzhi returned home with a heavy heart and saw Zhang Chunxue washing dishes in the kitchen.

"Are you back?" Zhang Chunxue was also a little surprised.

But she soon smiled again: "Just in time, I left some food for you."

She took the food out of the pot and then extinguished the remaining fire in the stove.

"I reported the case, and the police went to arrest Zhong Chengren," Song Xingzhi frowned, "but I think Zhong Chengren must have escaped."

Zhang Chunxue wasn't surprised at all. "That's perfectly normal. Mingli recognized him, so he must have escaped... He can't possibly stay at home and get caught, right?"

"Maybe there are other reasons..." Song Xingzhi pondered for a moment, "There's something strange about what happened tonight."

He told Zhang Chunxue about his previous plan.

"I originally wanted to trick him into winning until he became a complete gambler, and then set up a game to make him lose..."

"A true gambler won't be willing to keep losing. And every time he loses ten dollars, there's always a way to win back two dollars, and keep him hooked."

"He longed to recoup his money, but his money gradually disappeared after each gambling loss, so he had no choice but to borrow from loan sharks."

"I also arranged the loan shark. When he finally loses ten dollars and can only win one, the loan shark will force him to pay back the money - if he doesn't pay back the money, his legs will be broken."

"But not now," Song Xingzhi said in a deep voice, "Theoretically, he will be tortured for about another week."

"His will is gradually being destroyed. He will become a complete waste, not only physically but also mentally..."

"My people won't force him to the point of just coming out and robbing him of his money."

"The most important thing is that my people have been keeping an eye on him, just to prevent him from causing trouble for you."

"But it's obvious that something went wrong today, and I just went to look for my people, but I couldn't find them."

"To be honest, I'm starting to wonder if something happened to them too."

Zhang Chunxue's brows furrowed as well. "Perhaps... someone else is forcing him?"
