Bang!
A fine porcelain teacup flew straight towards Huo Yao's face.
Huo Yao had no time to dodge.
The teacup brushed against her ear and slammed hard against the door behind her.
torn apart.
The broken porcelain fragments cut a thin wound on her face, and blood soon seeped out.
Huo Yao covered her face and looked at Ji Jie, who was sitting on the mahogany sofa and was furious. She was completely shocked.
"Mommy, why?"
She was in her forties and had never been beaten by her parents. She couldn't help feeling wronged, and her eyes instantly filled with tears.
"Kneel down!" Ji Jie suddenly said in a stern voice.
Huo Yao was confused and looked at Huo Zhenchuan for help.
Huo Zhenchuan's expression was equally cold: "Your mommy told you to kneel, so you kneel. What do you want me to do? I listen to your mommy."
Huo Yao knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes.
She didn't understand. Daddy and Mommy were obviously doting on her before the meal, but why did their expressions suddenly change after just one meal?
It was not until Ji Jie spoke again and asked her to confess whether she had ever bullied Feng Jingrou that she realized that it was Feng Jingrou who had complained.
"Mommy, she's so mean, secretly complaining to you!" Huo Yao didn't think she had done anything wrong, but felt aggrieved. "Mommy, I was injured too. I was in the hospital for a week. Look, I still have scars on my legs! It hurts so much. Why don't you feel sorry for me?"
She wanted to roll up her trouser legs so that Ji Jie could see her injuries.
Ji Jie slammed the table and said, "You still don't think you did anything wrong?"
Huo Yao was frightened and knelt down, not daring to move.
Ji Jie took a deep breath and closed her eyes in pain.
"You will take a plane back to Hong Kong Island tomorrow and you are never allowed to come to the mainland again in your life." Her voice was hoarse, as if she had used up all her strength to say this.
Huo Yao was stunned.
"Why?"
Getting no response, she asked again.
"Just because I'm not your biological daughter?!"
Ji Jie suddenly opened her eyes.
Huo Zhenchuan's expression changed rapidly: "Yaoyao, you know everything?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.
"Oh, can't you just lie to me? Are you too lazy to even lie to me?" Huo Yao couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears. "You didn't close the door when you were talking to Mommy, and I just happened to hear it. Daddy, I really love you and Mommy! I even lowered my status and tried every possible way to pursue Qin Zheng just to stay in the Huo family."
"I thought that as long as I married Qin Zheng, I would still be a member of the Huo family."
"I never thought that my daddy and mommy wouldn't love me!"
Huo Yao ran out of the hotel crying.
He bumped into Huo Jingmo at the door of the room, but didn't stop.
"Yaoyao, you..." Huo Jingmo wanted to call her.
Huo Yao ran down the stairs without stopping.
Huo Zhenchuan: "Jing Mo, hurry up and follow your sister. Keep an eye on her and don't let anything happen to her!"
After his son left, he sighed and said quietly, "Ajie, you're too strict. Yaoyao has been with us for more than 40 years and is already our biological daughter. She did something wrong only because she wanted to stay with us."
"Zhenchuan, do you know what you are saying?" Ji Jie turned to look at her husband.
As a mother, when her children do something wrong, the pain in her eyes is even greater than Huo Yao's.
"She smashed Feng Jingrou's shop and beat her up."
When Xiao Feng met them today, he didn't say a word about Huo Yao's faults, which left a good impression on Ji Jie. In contrast, the daughter she had personally trained was actually unbearable to look at.
Ji Jie comes from a family of scholars who value family traditions and education the most. However, in the process of educating Huo Yao, she has felt a strong sense of frustration countless times.
She didn't understand. She had clearly been teaching with all her heart, so why couldn't she teach Huo Yao well?!
Until, she accidentally discovered the truth of forty years ago...
"Ajie..."
Huo Zhenchuan's trembling voice brought Ji Jie's thoughts back to reality.
"Um?"
When she looked at him, she found that he was also looking at her with horror.
Huo Zhenchuan's throat tightened, and his voice changed. "Ajie, how did you know about Huo Yao bullying Feng Jingrou?"
His pupils widened to a rare size, and a look of astonishment that was inconsistent with his status appeared in his brown pupils.
Ji Jie understood his astonishment and asked, "Did you hear it too?"
also? !
Huo Zhenchuan nodded mechanically.
The couple was so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time. After a while, Ji Jie slowly said, "It seems that we will have to stay in the mainland for a while longer."
————
Under the starry sky.
Two bright headlights shone on the road leading to Huaihua Village.
Feng Jingrou sat in the back seat holding the sleeping Qin Anan, and looked at the gold bracelet on her wrist, feeling very uneasy.
No reward without merit.
She wanted to return the gold bracelet.
But An An likes it, and giving it back would hurt An An's heart.
After thinking it over, Feng Jingrou said to Qin Zheng, "Qin Zheng, let's buy a big gift for Mr. Huo and his wife tomorrow?" It would be best if it was of the same value as the gold bracelet.
Qin Zheng knew what she was thinking.
He held the steering wheel with both hands, staring blankly ahead, and gave an answer that surprised Feng Jingrou: "No."
"Why?" Feng Jingrou asked.
The three sons all looked at Qin Zheng, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
In their memories, their father always taught them to return lost items, not to ask for other people's things casually, and to be courteous and return favors... Why is their father so weird today?
Qin Zheng accompanied Huo Zhenchuan to visit the factory today. He specially wore a suit and tie. At this moment, he was being stared at by eight people at the same time, and he felt the temperature in the car suddenly rise.
It's unbearably hot.
He held the steering wheel with one hand and tugged at his tie in frustration.
"I said I won't buy it, so I won't buy it. There's no reason..."
Feng Jingrou hadn't seen Qin Zheng act silly in a while, and worried that he might scare the children, she interrupted him, "Qin Zheng!"
Qin Zheng stopped talking immediately.
A hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.
After a while, he switched back to a patiently explaining tone: "Wife, I was wrong. Let me say it again. What Huo Zhenchuan owes me is much more valuable than a pair of gold bracelets."
Feng Jingrou thought he was talking about the kidney that was forcibly given to Huo Zhenchuan.
I never thought that Qin Zheng’s words actually had another meaning.
What they owe him is a whole life!
However, he no longer cares.
The people in the car at this moment, together with his eldest daughter Qin Ting who is preparing hard for the college entrance examination, have formed the most perfect life for him.
Now he only hopes that the Huo family can leave Linfeng County as soon as possible.
Don't disturb his peaceful life.
That's all.
