Chapter 85 Marionette or it really feels like being tied up for a walk
Countless people rushed to the foot of the Huai'an Temple mountain, but they were stopped by security guards. The little monk was holding on to the railing and looking down in panic.
"Brother, what do they do?"
The person sweeping the floor nearby frowned and glanced over here, muttering to himself in his native dialect, "If we charge admission, I guess there will be a lot of money from incense donations..."
The little monk was confused: "..."
But at this moment, someone at the foot of the mountain seemed to have reacted. He looked up first and shouted, "Hey! That genetic child is there, right?"
Countless "long guns and short cannons" were pointed upwards in a black mass.
Kong Yi's face turned pale instantly, but before he could express his emotions, he was grabbed under the armpit and taken away by his senior brother.
The movement of climbing the stairs made her crying intermittent, and she even caused herself to hiccup.
The little monk was "taken" out, his cheeks were red and tears were still running down his face.
“Cough cough cough…”
The older brother went to get a handkerchief and wiped the wound roughly, mumbling, "Why are you crying? They are just talking nonsense!"
"I don't have a mother..."
"."
"I don't have a dad either... woo woo."
"."
Until the host came out from the inner room, called the servants calmly, and raised his hand to let the senior brother go down.
"Come here."
The little monk sat up straight and stopped crying.
"Why are you crying?"
"They scolded me, saying I was..."
"So do you think you are?"
The child dropped his chin, as if he understood something, "I don't think so."
"If you don't agree, you won't be attacked."
"Since you are sad, it means you agree in your heart."
Such complicated words.
The little monk knelt on the cushion in a daze, feeling depressed for a while. After a while, he felt pomelo leaves hitting his head.
"Today is a good time."
"Might as well just step out."
There was the sound of a stranger in the corridor. The little monk looked over in shock, grabbed the sleeve of the abbot, and returned to the most instinctive reaction of a normal child.
——Perhaps, we can interview the...
——Don't worry, we will report fairly and impartially.
…
Time moves forward bit by bit.
The signs of the Lu family's bankruptcy became more and more obvious, but still no one came out to show up, so the bad media began to dig up old news from that year.
The first to be affected was Xu Qingyi.
It is believed that her death was not natural at that time, but was caused by her husband, Lu Shen, the former head of the Lu family.
Huai'an Temple was built to suppress evil spirits and prevent his deceased wife from coming to claim his life.
In addition, there is also the matter involving the Shen family, saying that Shen Ningan’s death was actually orchestrated by someone from the Lu family.
They staged a car accident, salvaged the body in a fake manner, and quickly held a funeral to cover up the incident.
It was obviously premeditated murder.
Both the father and the son are destined to be unlucky with their wives. They should be cut into pieces and sent to hell.
When Shen Yunxiao heard these rumors, he frowned almost instinctively, wondering why these people in Rongcheng said so.
He held the documents in his hand, and his joints creaked.
Because it was nothing but the truth obtained from that slumped, unkempt middle-aged man.
This man was a truck driver. He lost all his money gambling. His mother died and his wife reported it to the police and filed for divorce due to domestic violence.
He is a marginalized member of society.
But he was contacted privately by Shen Zhongshan last year with the intention of hitting someone to death and hiring a killer. Rich people often do this, but what is not common is killing a child.
What is the reason?
Shen Yunxiao was still trying to convince himself, in the previous life...what if it wasn't Shen Zhongshan?
But who else could it be?
He couldn't find a candidate, but he didn't dare to admit the unbelievable truth.
Marriage is an exchange of interests. The Shen family gave up people, but also gave up leverage.
Want to make a lot of money.
Destroy your weaknesses.
He could only infer this.
Shen Yunxiao's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He was in moral torture. If the truth was made public, would An An... be able to accept it?
Does he still have any thoughts about this home?
If the truth is not revealed, it will be impossible for the Shen family to marry the Lu family again. The person with the identity of "Shen Lin" is so similar to "Shen Ning'an" that he will inevitably encounter various resistances.
If it doesn’t work in one year, then we’ll push it to two years. If it doesn’t work in two years… then three years.
But three years later, is the Lu family still there? Is that person still there?
…
Just then, the phone rang.
His mother's.
"I heard that you stopped a truck driver. He was looking for trouble? You paid him off? What was it?"
Shen Yunxiao pursed his lips and lowered his eyes slightly.
"mom."
The person on the other end was stunned for a moment, then said impatiently, "What are you doing? All you do is yell all day long."
“…”
Shen Yunxiao seemed to be relieved suddenly, and his tightly clenched fingers loosened, "Is An An with Lu Yuting now?"
"nonsense."
"Will they get married?"
"nonsense."
"Are they a good match?"
"nonsense."
Lin Yanqing hit every pain point accurately, crossed her arms and said, "What else? Can you find a more suitable one? Or -"
Before the poisonous words came out, a calm voice came from the other end of the line.
"That's good. You are very good at judging people."
"Then I'll help the Lu family."
The phone hung up.
Lin Yanqing was puzzled, but for now she thought it would be better to take care of the girl next to her.
The other party has been brought out by her and is currently playing with a Rubik's Cube in the hotel.
Lin Yanqing still felt uneasy when she thought about yesterday's conversation, so she walked over and asked, "Are you going back to Rongcheng?"
"No."
Lin Yanqing was stunned for a moment, "You said you missed your brother yesterday."
"But my brother sent me here because he thought it was unsafe there. What if I distract him if I go there?" the girl looked up.
Lin Yanqing: "Isn't your brother with that guy from the Rong family? What's the point of being distracted?"
"They are not in a relationship. My brother has someone he likes."
"who?"
“Shen Ning’an.”
It was like a particle colliding with the atmosphere. Although Lin Yanqing didn't know what it was, it was inexplicable anyway.
The woman was petrified for a while.
"ah?"
Chu Xiu had no idea that his thoughts, which he had never confessed, had been revealed. He just looked at the documents that were discovered with a calm expression.
"Are you still not admitting defeat now?"
Rong Mingzheng seemed really annoyed. "These things are enough to send you to jail. Do you really have to go against me?"
"What do you want?"
Chu Xiu looked up quietly and said, "You are the one who killed my mother, right?"
The friendship of childhood was finally blown away by time. Rong Mingzheng frowned, "So that's why you stabbed me?"
The two adults knew it well.
"You're not dead either, so what's wrong?"
Chu Xiu looked at the materials on the table calmly. After picking and choosing for a long time, he finally found one that he liked, but he just looked at the time on his wrist watch.
"You remember everything?"
The young man had a handsome face. He sat on the chair and looked quite calm. He just said calmly, "Or else?"
"Do you think that everyone comes back to play supporting roles for you?"
Rong Mingzheng frowned, almost emotionally unstable, and retorted, "Everyone? Are you kidding me!"
The teacup was swept to the ground and broke into pieces.
"An An, he simply—"
"So does he."
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said softly, "He doesn't like you either. He agreed to the marriage, and he is happy and joyful staying in the Lu family."
"Can……"
Chu Xiu seemed to remember something and interrupted casually, "You mentioned the incident of falling into the river. I asked him, and he didn't do it because he hated Lu Yuting, but because he hated the identity of 'Chen Ning'."
"Guess why?"
Rong Mingzheng looked at him expressionlessly, and the other party said slowly:
"Because he doesn't like the image of someone who is too high up to marry into Rong's family. He doesn't like you."
Rong Mingzheng's knuckles cracked lightly, and his expression suddenly became calm again, "Chu Chu, what's the point of you irritating me like this?"
"Have you seen the situation outside? The people of the Lu family are going crazy. The core of the Shen family is broken. Only a woman named Lin is left playing house."
"You have no other options. If you stab me again, maybe you can try again?"
Chu Xiu's eyes were calm, and he just said, "Do you feel that the world revolves around you?"
"You think I can't tell? You don't like me at all."
The tone is very straightforward.
“We don’t have to reminisce, and there’s no extra audience for our story.”
"What are you and I going to act?"
The windows outside were bright and clean, and the sky began to clear up again the next day.
The young man looked at his watch again.
Tick-tock, tick-tock…
"It's impossible for me to like you. You caused my mother to die of pneumonia without medical treatment, and you forced me to find you. I couldn't tolerate it in my last life, and I can't tolerate it in this life either."
"It won't happen again."
Chu Xiu took out the document and threw it in front of the man. "Look at the name on the evidence you found. Is it my name?"
Rong Mingzheng frowned slightly, but at the same time, his vision began to gradually blur, but this was normal, he often couldn't see clearly.
His fingers tried to grab the paper, but the other party pulled it back.
"You can't see clearly, can you?"
Rong Mingzheng almost sneered, "You drugged me? Haha... Chuchu is so vicious?"
"I'm not as vicious as you."
Rong Mingxiang naturally thought that the other party also had the restriction of "not doing evil things", but he was pushed back by this sentence.
Normal people don't have the desire to do evil.
"You forgot to take the medicine, didn't you? I just didn't remind you. You've been in charge of Rong Sheng's affairs for a few days. Do you always feel that God favors you?"
Chu Xiu stood up from the chair and walked over slowly. "I never understood why you thought I could like you?"
"The son of a nanny suffered all kinds of injustice in the master's house, his mother was inexplicably targeted, and the child, who was less than eight years old, was accused of seducing you..."
"Like you?" Chu Xiu's tone was quite sarcastic.
"How can a blind person with a physical illness grow up to be more cheerful and kind than someone in a healthy environment? Your character setting is inconsistent, do you know that?"
"I have never discriminated against you. I have sincerely cared for you, and so has Shen Ning'an. But at least we are consistent in our appearance and in our hearts."
The young man bent down slightly, held the person's wheelchair, and gently turned it around. The black moving wheels slid on the ground.
Turned out the window.
The weather was fine, and the branches after the rain had buds sprouting out, what a beautiful sight.
"Is this the ending for us? I can take care of you for the rest of your life." Chu Xiu bent down and whispered softly in the person's ear.
“What Shen Ning’an wants is freedom, the Lu family is the Changyun Project…Is it said that it’s because of his mother…the Shen family…oh, his brother.”
Chu Xiu could only think of a few people and smiled slightly, "None of them has anything to do with you."
"You're looking in the wrong direction."
The young man spoke softly.
"You must hate yourself. You locked me up but didn't stop me. You brought Shen Ning'an back and then put him back."
Rong Mingzheng's vision was cloudy, his face expressionless, only his fingers were clenched tightly.
"When you crushed the bird to death, did you feel a sense of relief from the psychological pressure?"
"You want to be a good person, but you find that your soul is dirty. You want to be loved by others and be saved, but you yourself are unwilling to save yourself."
Chu Xiu said calmly: "It's no big deal to admit that you are a bad person."
Puff...
The person in the wheelchair suddenly vomited blood, his face turned pale, and he began to laugh.
It was like a puppet with its strings cut, its body surging in pieces.
Almost crazy.
He struggled violently, as if trying to look back at someone.
But Chu Xiu raised his hand and slapped him directly. The other person tilted his head slightly, and blood stained his white clothes, but he was still smiling.
The young man said calmly:
"I still don't understand why I should be paired with such a bad person."
"It's not like you're the only protagonist."
*
Eleven o'clock——
it's clear.
Shen Lin looked at the chain between the two people in silence. Fortunately, it was not very long, otherwise it would really look like someone was being tied up for a walk.
“…”
The boy had fluffy hair and slightly drooping eyelids. He stood in the bathroom of his bedroom, scooping water and washing his face.
Facing the gaze of a psychopath.
"Okay, okay, stay away from me..."
His tone was halting.
The door was forcefully opened.
The boy stepped back helplessly, and finally sat on the toilet lid, looking aggrieved.
"I have to go to the bathroom..."
Before he could finish his words, he was fished out and his pants were taken off without a second thought.
Shen Lin was so panicked that he was shaking. His slender hands went to grab the other person's arm, "No, no, no."
It's too late.
Three minutes later.
Her face was flushed and her lips were almost bitten.
The soft belly around the waist was touched again and again, and the earlobe was bitten gently.
Shen Lin's breathing became lighter, "It's noon."
Tied... no, handcuffed is really inconvenient.
Shen Lin led people everywhere. After he finished washing up, he was so hungry that he opened the refrigerator and took a look.
Leftovers!!
The light of humanity!
Fortunately, the housekeeper brought him a bunch of food, and Shen Lin carefully heated up the leftovers until he heard a cell phone buzzing.
He thought it was his cell phone, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Yuting still staring at him.
It’s as if I didn’t hear it.
The boy swallowed, supported himself on the table with his hands, and finally took a step forward.
"cell phone."
People seem to not understand.
Shen Lin consulted the doctor several times, but the responses he got were all that it was normal, and some even said that this was the fifth time he had lost his voice this month.
He didn’t know…
Shen Lin could only walk over and take it from the person's pocket, but his waist was naturally grasped, and the sound of the chain was very pleasant.
"It's too tight." He muttered softly.
Shen Lin frowned and looked at Lu Yuting's phone, and then realized that... it seemed like he was holding his phone for the first time.
It's a phone call.
?
Unknown number.
The boy tilted his head and squinted his eyes to see, having an affair?
But before he could look up for long, the kiss came.
Shen Lin turned his face away and said, "Wait a minute..."
I didn't notice the person's dim eyes.
He went to answer the phone.
"I wasted enough time, but something went wrong. He vomited blood, but luckily he didn't die. It probably won't happen again."
Shen Lin was extremely panicked, and immediately stood on tiptoe to press the phone to Lu Yuting's ear, but the other party just looked at him.
It's over.
He is not well yet.
It seemed as if the breath was transmitted into the receiver.
Chu Xiu frowned: "Chen Lin?"
The boy was disheartened, "Ah, yes, it's me."
"You're with him?"
The tone was inexplicably unhappy.
Then he seemed to sigh.
"fine."
Hang up.
