Chapter 84: The guilt deepened, she is such a piece of shit!
If Mr. Zhong knew about this in his afterlife, how heartbroken he would be! Just look at Li Guixiang. Whenever she thought of her granddaughter, she couldn't help crying. That's why she doubled over all the debt she owed to her granddaughter and put it on Zhong Siyu and his siblings.
Zhong Heyang frowned, his eyes filled with anger.
If Lin Ziqiu hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed in and killed Wei Zhihe to seek justice for his sister when he passed by the Ruan family just now.
"Don't go looking for Xue Yuan tonight." Lin Ziqiu pulled Zhong Heyang's arm, "My little sister is very emotional now, so let's wait for her to calm down, sit down as a family, and have a good talk about this matter."
"There's nothing to talk about. I've wanted to deal with the Ruan family for a long time."
When Zhong Xueyuan got divorced, Zhong Heyang beat Wei Zhihe up very cruelly.
If Zhong Xuexi hadn't tried her best to stop him, Wei Zhihe would have definitely been hospitalized.
I wonder if Zhong Xuexi will hate herself when she recalls these things.
Lin Ziqiu frowned, "Calm down and don't act impulsively."
"After all, this matter concerns Xueyuan's reputation. She has started a new life now. You should first ask her if she is willing to open up about this mess in the past. Otherwise, it will be a second injury to her."
Zhong Heyang took a deep breath, and after calming down for a moment, he realized that what she said made sense.
Besides, Xueyuan is going to be transferred to the capital soon. If she makes a big deal out of this at this critical juncture, won't everyone be laughing at her?
"You go home first. I'll go call grandma and the others."
Lin Ziqiu was protecting the dignity of her grandmother and sister-in-law. Even though they were family, they probably didn't want Zhong Heyang to see them losing control of their emotions.
Zhong Heyang hummed a silent "hmm" and followed his wife's instructions.

When Lin Ziqiu walked over, Zhong Xuexi was still crying, her eyes were swollen, and she was unable to vent the self-blame and anger in her heart.
"If you keep crying, you'll attract everyone in the compound."
Zhong Xuexi's back stiffened, and she hurriedly wiped away her tears, her voice hoarse, "Who is crying..."
Lin Ziqiu shook her head helplessly and patted Li Guixiang on the shoulder. "Grandma, it's cold outside. Let's go home first. Brother Heyang said that Siyu and the others are probably asleep. Let's not go to pick them up from Xueyuan tonight."
Li Guixiang sniffed and said, "Okay, let's go home."
"Let's go, Xuexi, go home with grandma."
Zhong Xuexi didn't know how to face other people at the moment. She was afraid that her brother would blame her for having no conscience if he knew the truth, but she was also worried that her brother didn't know the truth yet and left her alone to suffer.
She returned home worriedly, and was slightly relieved to find that her brother was not downstairs.
Lying in bed at night, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. If it wasn't for the fact that it was still dark, she would have wanted to go find Wei Zhihe right away, beat him up severely, and then...
Then what can she do?
Stab him to death?
But if she did so, Siyu and the others would become children without a father, and they would probably hate her, their incompetent aunt, for the rest of their lives.
Zhong Xuexi's mind was full of thoughts about what to do, while Zhong Heyang on the other side also did not sleep all night.
At around four in the morning, he could no longer lie down, so he got up and went downstairs. He saw Zhong Xuexi sitting at the door of the main room, wrapped in a coat.
"What are you doing here?"
His voice startled Zhong Xuexi. She covered her chest and said slowly, "Why did you get up so early?"
Zhong Heyang came down the stairs and looked at the candle on the ground that was about to burn out. His low voice was filled with sadness, "What should I do to really help her..."
Zhong Xuexi was shocked, "You already know everything..."
"If we kill him, what will happen to Siyu and the others..." Zhong Heyang squatted down and put his hands into his hair. He was really stumped at this moment.
Zhong Siyu and his sister can be said to have been raised by him.
Even though he is his nephew, he is like his own son in his eyes.
Once he takes action, Wei Zhihe will be gone and he will pay a price. What about the rest of the family?
Grandma can no longer bear the pain of losing a loved one, and he cannot ignore her health.
But if I were to report Wei Zhihe, where would I get the physical and witness evidence?
Not to mention whether he can be convicted, Zhong Xueyuan will suffer greatly.
"You and I think the same thing." Zhong Xuexi sighed. She didn't know what to do.
Zhong Heyang took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit one with trembling fingers, "You actually liked this beast for so many years."
"Zhong Xuexi, you really are..."
"Brother! I really know I was wrong..." Zhong Xuexi cried out. When she thought about these things while lying in bed at night, she couldn't stop crying. If she could go back on time, she wanted her whole family to stay away from the Ruan family!
Zhong Heyang took a puff of cigarette, "Before, your sister-in-law and I were worried that you were stubborn and would continue to pester him. Zhao Huaian was so good to you, but you didn't even look at him. With your brain, I was worried that you would mislead the young people."
"Zhao Huaian?" Zhong Xuexi was not a fool, so she naturally understood the implication of her brother's words.
But she was a little bit hesitant to believe it.
"You're overthinking it. How could he possibly like me? He's always bullied me since I was little!"
Zhong Xuexi still can't forget the various pranks and bullying that Zhao Huaian did to her when she was a child.
Zhong Heyang glanced at her coldly and said, "You should get your brain checked out."
"Brother! You're so annoying!"
Zhong Xuexi punched him on the arm and said, "You still have the mind to make fun of me at this time. Think about it quickly. When are we going to see my sister?"
"Now that you know she is your sister, you got anxious when someone mentioned her name before." Zhong Heyang was furious. "When you meet her in person, you should apologize to her."
Zhong Xuexi's eyes were red, "I know... I am sorry for her and failed her efforts." After a pause, she took a deep breath, tears in her eyes, and said firmly, "From now on, no matter what my sister asks me to do, I will do it without hesitation, as long as she can forgive me!"
Zhong Heyang tapped her forehead and said, "You are her sister. She can do this for you. If you admit your mistake, how can she bear not to forgive you?"
Zhong Xuexi's heart trembled.
The guilt deepened. She was such a piece of shit!
This morning, time seemed to pass exceptionally slowly.
When Lin Ziqiu woke up, she found that there was no one beside her. When she went downstairs, she found that her sister-in-law, who always loved to stay in bed, had made breakfast for the whole family for the first time.
"sister in law."
Zhong Xuexi was wearing an apron, standing in front of the stove, pointing at the steamed buns in the pot, "They're freshly steamed, eat them while they're hot."
Lin Ziqiu felt like he had seen a ghost and almost thought he was dreaming.
"Where's your brother?"
"He went out on his bike and said he would be back soon. You eat first. I'm going to go call grandma."
Zhong Xuexi wiped her hands, forced a smile at Lin Ziqiu, and then passed by.
