Chapter 198 Atonement
He supported An Lianhe and her son, and worked day and night to earn money for Zhou Xingchen's studies.
On the surface, it seemed that she had softened her heart.
Actually.
Mu Yuan knew it very well.
She is atonement.
The image of Zhou Xingchen sitting upright and reading a book made her hallucinate as Su Yao.
If... Su Yao was still alive.
He will definitely be admitted to the best middle school and high school in town, and finally to a prestigious university.
The boy who was born with a love for reading.
But because of her.
And lost the opportunity to enjoy reading.
Rather than providing Zhou Xingchen with education, it would be more accurate to say that she was giving 'Su Yao' another chance to study.
But besides giving money.
She tried her best to isolate herself from Zhou Lianhe and her son.
As a result, the only transaction between them was money.
Nothing else.
Zhou Xingchen was indeed a good student and was successfully admitted to middle school and high school.
Seeing life gradually getting back on track.
However, the crimes committed by Mu Guobao have not yet stopped.
As soon as the news of the expropriation of the old village came out, Mu Guobao's former creditors set their sights on the old house.
They threatened them that if they didn't pay back the gambling debts that Mu Guobao owed them, they would raze the old house to the ground.
The old house is a collection of her various memories.
Even if the pain outweighs the pleasure.
But she still remembers.
On a cool summer night, her mother slept with her on the couch, gently fanning her with a bamboo fan in her hand, and coaxing her to sleep in a soft voice under the moonlight.
That was one of the few times she felt the love of her mother.
Like a soft needle, it penetrated deep into her heart.
It can't be pulled out anymore.
In times of crisis.
She met Huo Min.
He generously rescued her from dire straits.
Before she met him, she was exhausted every day, so exhausted that she couldn't touch the sun or see the moon.
But after meeting him.
She then realized that although the sunlight was dazzling, it was very warm.
In the night when the dark clouds have dispersed, the moonlight is bright and the stars are vast.
Even if you know it's all fake.
Everything has a time limit.
But she couldn't help herself and fell in love with him. She thought that perhaps this would be the last moment in her life when she felt happy.
So she was both happy and anxious.
Always anxiously waiting for the midnight bell to ring, signaling the end of the beautiful dream.
Mu Yuan's long eyelashes cast a dark shadow, and she didn't even have the courage to look up at him.
The fingertips hanging on my legs were cold and stiff.
She stammered for a long time before finally saying what she had been reluctant to say: "If... I mean, if you want a divorce, I can cooperate at any time." She waited for a moment.
Didn't wait for his reply.
He raised his eyes slightly in panic.
But saw.
His pair of beautifully shaped phoenix eyes were now glowing with a heart-scorching red.
She was stunned.
The next second, he embraced her in a warm embrace.
He hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.
Next to my ear, I heard his voice, which sounded teasing yet muffled: "Madam, you need to think of a more convincing reason to persuade me to divorce. This reason is rejected."
The dying heart is in an instant.
Excited and excited again.
Mu Yuan finally raised her arms and hugged him, responding to his strong and warm hug, and was speechless for a long time.
Huo Min's dark eyes were filled with heartache, and his jaw was tautly straight.
It’s not like he hasn’t sent people to investigate.
It can be imagined that Director X was worried that it would affect his performance, so he deliberately suppressed and tampered with the real case files.
In that era when information was not well developed, people who were not in the know could only find the surface information.
He only knew that she grew up in an orphanage, and when she grew up, she was admitted to a good school and came to his group to find a job. She had a clean background.
But I didn't expect that behind the clean experience, there was a painful past full of scars.
When I think of the young Mu Yuan, who grew up with great difficulty and hardship step by step.
Huo Min couldn't stop feeling heartbroken.
Sighed silently.
"It's all in the past. Let's move forward together." He comforted me gently.
Mu Yuan said solemnly, with a tearful tone, "Yes."
a long time.
Huo Min let her go.
His right hand caressed her delicate cheek.
He lowered his eyes, his gentle dark eyes filled with comfort: "Want to go home? Or do you want to stay here?"
Going home is just an escape from the problem.
But she didn't want to escape anymore.
She pursed her lips and whispered, "Can I see Su Ruoyun first?"
Huo Min stared at her deeply: "Okay, I'll take you there."
detention center.
The moment Su Ruoyun saw Mu Yuan again.
Almost instantly, he burst into curses: "Just wait for me, wait until I get out, I will definitely not let you go!"
The hatred on her face was shocking.
Mu Yuan looked at the hysterical Su Ruoyun and found it hard to reconcile her with the cheerful sister in her memory who once took her skipping rope.
Huo Min took in her stunned reaction.
My heart sinks a little.
He increased the strength of his hand holding hers and whispered, "Yuanyuan?"
Mu Yuan raised her eyes in surprise.
She met the worry in his eyes that was as gentle as moonlight.
Mu Yuan's heart was beating fast, and she raised her lips lightly: "I'm fine."
She released her hand from Huo Min and calmed herself down.
Walk in front of Su Ruoyun.
Su Ruoyun said fiercely: "You..."
Before she could finish her words, she was silenced by Mu Yuan's sudden kneeling without any warning.
Seeing this scene, Huo Min's eyes suddenly dimmed.
He instinctively wanted to go forward and help her up, but he stopped abruptly when she glanced back as if she had sensed something.
He pursed his lips tightly, struggling in his heart for several times, and finally chose to stand behind her and support her.
Mu Yuan looked back, guilt filling her cold face.
For a moment, Su Ruoyun saw the little Mu Yuan again. After being insulted and scolded by Mu Guobao, he was skinny, crying silently, squatting in the corner pitifully, watching her happily jumping rope with envy in his eyes.
"Sister, I'm sorry."
Su Ruoyun's eyes instantly turned red, and she gritted her teeth, "Sorry? Ha, a simple 'sorry' can't bring back my brother's life. My brother won't come back, my brother is gone!"
Mu Yuan took a deep breath and spoke in a clear voice: "Brother Yao died trying to save me. If he hadn't pushed me, I would have died in that heavy rain when I was six years old. I have no reason to defend Brother Yao's death from any angle. If I had a choice, I would rather die than not. Since the day he left, I haven't had a good night's sleep. As soon as I close my eyes, I will remember the image of him lying on the ground covered in blood. Five years ago, I thought about committing suicide, but when I thought about how Brother Yao sacrificed his own life for mine, how could I be worthy of him if I just avoided the pain and chose to die once and for all?"
Su Ruoyun wanted to curse, but she was crying so hard that she couldn't utter a word.
Mu Yuan knelt straight, like a green bamboo, thin and slender, yet tough and straight.
She looked at Su Ruoyun and said in a strong voice, "Sister, even if I die, Brother Yao will never be resurrected, and I will atone for this sin for the rest of my life. I can bear this pain alone. I don't want to see you fall into the vortex of hatred and be unable to extricate yourself. I still remember that you once dreamed of becoming a professional dancer, but you gave up your dream just to hate me. Is it really worth it?"
Su Ruoyun gritted her teeth: "You want me to let go of my hatred? Unless you die!"
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes were filled with a dead silence. She looked at Su Ruoyun intently and said in a clear voice, "If I die, will you let go of your hatred and pick up your dreams again?"
Su Ruoyun's eyes were bloodshot: "I want you to pay for my brother's life!"
Mu Yuan stared at her silently for a few seconds.
Hoarse voice: "Okay."
Huo Min's expression behind him suddenly changed.
