Volume 1 Chapter 63 Wei Shixu's Past
"Milk tea, biscuits, and this is chocolate." Kong Mingze first gave snacks to the two of them.
Zhuge Ying took it, opened it and ate it, thinking it would be a waste if he didn’t eat it.
Quan Zhisui also took it, but didn't eat it. He waited for Kong Mingze to speak with an expressionless face.
If he spoke up for Wei Shixu, she would throw the snacks in her hand at him!
Kong Mingze took a deep breath: "I want to tell you about Wei Shixu's past."
Zhuge Ying: "About the kidnapping?"
Quan Zhisui stopped his hand when he was about to throw the snacks and took it back: "Then you say."
Kong Mingze began to organize his words, frowned and said something unexpected: "In fact, before the age of ten, Wei Shixu and I had completely opposite personalities."
Click!
Zhuge Ying stopped eating snacks abruptly and looked at him in shock: "What do you mean? Are you saying that Wei Shixu used to be a sunny and cheerful boy, and you are the gloomy and withdrawn one?"
Kong Mingze nodded: "Yes."
Quan Zhisui became a little interested and started to open the snacks.
Zhuge Ying couldn't even eat her snacks and was in a terrible mood. What she liked was the sunny and cheerful side of you, but you told her that you are not?
"Are you pretending?!" Zhuge Ying asked in despair.
Kong Mingze shook his head: "It was at the beginning, but not now."
Zhuge Ying asked again: "Wei Shixu used to sleep on the table all day like you? He is a funny guy because he is a big-headed guy who always does stupid things?"
Kong Mingze: "Oh? No."
Zhuge Ying asked again: "Were you like Wei Shixu in the past, with a weird personality, acting all day and not taking anyone seriously?"
Kong Mingze scratched his head: "Oh, that's not there either."
Zhuge Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you continue."
She almost burned out her CPU just now!
Kong Mingze found a place to sit nearby, took a bite of chocolate and said, "Where should I start? Elementary school, right?"
"As you know, my parents never received any education, so they really wanted me to study hard. Even if I couldn't get into a good university, I must finish high school, so they brought me to a province with a strong education system."
"They sold their house in their hometown, quit their already low-paying jobs, and bought an old, run-down house in Liangxi, where land is very expensive."
"My house was really small before, only 30 square meters, with three people living together, but this 30-square-meter house is a school district house."
"I was able to successfully attend a very good primary school in Liangxi. My parents would get up early and work late every day to set up a stall in front of my school."
When Zhuge Ying heard this, his eyes were filled with tenderness and compassion that were hard to describe.
"What happened next?" Quan Zhisui asked.
Kong Mingze laughed and said, "Later, I met Wei Shixu in that particularly good elementary school."
"Wei Shixu has been the top student in his grade since he was young. He has excellent grades and is good-looking. His family is rich and he rides in a luxury car every day. He is also sunny and cheerful. He is very popular and has a lot of friends. Everyone likes him."
"My parents set up a stall at the school gate, so my classmates looked down on me. I was always subjected to school bullying and other things. As a result, I became a loner and didn't like to talk."
"Only Wei Shixu doesn't despise me. He even goes to my parents' stall to buy breakfast and eats with me!"
"He's really nice! He's my only friend in that elementary school!"
Zhuge Ying opened her mouth in surprise. She had never expected that their first meeting would be like this.
Kong Mingze: "This continued until the third grade. When we were ten years old, one day Wei Shixu and I walked out of the school gate together after school."
At this time he stopped smiling and his expression became serious.
"I still remember what he said when I walked out of the school gate."
"He said his grandfather is sick, the whole family is very busy, and his parents can't see him. I don't know if there is a driver to take him home today."
Zhuge Ying's heart was in his throat: "Then?"
Kong Mingze raised his head: "Then, he was pulled into a car I had never seen before at the school gate."
Zhuge Ying: “!!!”
Kong Mingze showed a gloomy look he had never had before: "When I was ten years old, I didn't know it was kidnapping. I didn't recognize the car logo, and I didn't know it wasn't Wei Shixu's car. I thought those two were his bodyguards!"
"The next day, the teacher found me and asked me why Wei Shixu didn't come. I said that Wei Shixu's grandfather was sick. At that time, Wei's grandfather's hospitalization was even reported in the news."
"Haha! I don't know if the teacher called to ask! Anyway, Wei Shixu didn't call the police because of my negligence and ignorance..."
"He was kidnapped to the next city!"
At this moment, Kong Mingze's eyes were red and his emotions were full of regret!
Zhuge Ying reached out and stroked his back: "You...you're okay, it's all over."
“There is no past!”
Kong Mingze was very excited.
"Three nights later, it was dark and I was doing my homework next to my father's stall."
"A little beggar came to my stall and asked my father if he could give him a bowl of rice."
Zhuge Ying was surprised: "Beggar?!"
"Yes! Beggar! This little beggar is Wei Shixu who disappeared for three days."
When Kong Mingze said this, he clenched his fists and placed them on his knees. He lowered his head, tears streaming down his face, and he cried inconsolably.
"Do you know? Wei Shixu wore clothes and shoes worth thousands of dollars since he was a child. He gave all kinds of gifts to all his classmates every semester. I was so happy every time I received his gifts! Because it was the best and most expensive thing I could get at that time!"
"Street vendors are just a seasoning for him. He usually eats high-end cuisine that costs thousands or tens of thousands of dollars!"
"But that day..."
"His clothes and shoes were all torn, he was covered in wounds, and he looked unkempt. You couldn't tell it was him at all!"
Kong Mingze said, pointing two fingers at his eyes: "It happened right in front of me. I saw him wolfing down a bowl of egg fried rice without salt! He ate until he cried!"
Zhuge Ying covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes turned red and tears flashed in his eyes.
Quan Zhisui, who was standing aside, stopped eating snacks and remained silent.
Kong Mingze seemed to have a mental breakdown. He cried for a long time before calming down and continuing to speak.
"He walked back from the next city. He didn't have a cell phone or a map. He escaped twice. The first time he escaped he was caught and beaten. Do you know what was the key point that allowed him to escape but was caught?"
"What is it?" Zhuge Ying asked.
Quan Zhisui thought for a moment and said, "Poisoned? Knocked out?"
Kong Mingze nodded and shook his head: "It is true that he asked for food after he came out and fainted, but this is not the point. The point is before he ate that bite of food."
Kong Mingze took a deep breath and said, "After he escaped for the first time, he immediately borrowed a cell phone to call his parents."
"It was that phone call that exposed his whereabouts."
"His parents took the initiative to expose it."
Zhuge Ying: “!!!”
Quan Zhisui was also stunned.
Kong Mingze's eyes were red again: "I don't know what's going on inside the Wei family. After his grandfather fell ill, the whole family was busy fighting for property, including his parents."
"The hostile forces in the neighboring city are very rampant! They have expanded here, and as the eldest grandson of the Wei family, he is the first target!"
"The Wei family doesn't want his grandfather to survive. Only when the person with the highest power dies will the property be dispersed."
"It doesn't matter whether Wei Shixu lives or dies. He is just a chess piece used by his parents to fight for the family property! A chess piece used in a game of chess!"
"Luckily he was really smart and escaped again!"
"But after he escaped for the second time, he didn't dare to make a phone call or ask anyone for food. Every passerby could be an enemy and he couldn't tell them apart."
"He walked all the way, without eating or drinking, until he reached a familiar road and came to my stall."
"He has met and known me, my father and my mother."
"He can finally eat a meal and drink water without worrying about anyone harming him."
Zhuge Ying wiped away her tears and said, "How can there be such parents in this world!"
Quan Zhisui: “Heh…”
Yes, how can there be such parents in this world?
Same as Zuo Zhiyu.
