"I'll show you what's what, I'll show you what's what!"
Chen Feng took a thin stick and struck Xia Yingying's mother hard, hitting her head and buttocks repeatedly.
Each slap made her mother scream and roll around on the ground.
His father recovered and tried to go back up with the things, but Chen Feng slapped his hand with a stick, making him scream in agony.
If you use this thing to spank someone's butt, it might just hurt the flesh, but if you slap someone's hand, it hurts the bone, that really hurts.
"Come on, you bunch of little punks! Weren't you so tough just now? What kind of skill is hitting a child? Fuck you, hit me then!"
Chen Feng, still furious, came out and swung his fists at his father's head repeatedly, until his father covered his head with his hands and couldn't even stand up.
Chen Fengguang could roughly understand what was going on from what they were saying. He was also angry when he heard about this. Since they had already started, he might as well have a good beating.
"Hurry, hurry!"
Xia Jie covered his head and stood up, then scrambled out of the building, shouting as he ran.
His mother and father also came to their senses, covered their heads and ran out, ignoring Chen Feng's stick.
Chen Feng, carrying a stick, chased them all the way outside the courtyard, breaking the stick in the process. The four of them then started their car and sped away.
Having no other choice, Chen Feng threw down the stick, picked up a large rock, and smashed it hard against the windshield before they could even start moving.
"Bang!"
The blow shattered the windshield, but the stone didn't go in; it slid onto the hood.
The four people in the car were so frightened that they didn't care about anything else and drove off, pressing the accelerator to the floor.
Seeing that he really couldn't catch up this time, Chen Feng took a deep breath and returned to the villa.
Xia Yingying stood in the living room, staring blankly at the mess on the floor.
"They're gone, you..."
Chen Feng didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only sigh.
Xia Yingying didn't speak. After a long while, she slowly moved her feet, found a broom, and slowly swept the mess on the ground.
"Splash!"
"Splash!"
After sweeping for only a few strokes, Xia Yingying seemed to have all her strength drained away, and slowly squatted down.
She didn't cry when her own parents called her a slut.
She didn't cry when her whole family's house was smashed to pieces.
She didn't cry even when that beastly father slapped her across the face.
But while cleaning up the mess, Xia Yingying could no longer hold back, and extremely soft sobs echoed in the villa as tears of grievance and pain gradually filled her eyes.
Perhaps it was his protective instinct at work, or perhaps Chen Feng had finally seen his own heart clearly.
When he saw Xia Yingying's weak and helpless figure, only one thought came to his mind.
He wanted to be with her and protect her for the rest of his life.
What a load of bull! All that fame and gossip, go to hell!
Chen Feng is determined to have Xia Yingying.
Chen Feng walked over, gently hugged Xia Yingying, and let her lean on his shoulder.
At that moment, Xia Yingying cried her heart out, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had held back for so many years.
And so, Xia Yingying didn't know how long she cried. She only remembered that she finally cried herself to sleep when she was exhausted.
When Xia Yingying woke up the next morning, she was in her own big bed.
She gently patted her head; it still hurt a little from crying for so long during her emotional breakdown.
Looking at her wrinkled clothes, Xia Yingying tried hard to recall what happened yesterday.
It seems that Chen Feng carried her upstairs, and then Chen Feng left.
She turned around and saw a glass of water on the bedside table. She reached out and touched it, but it was already cold. She picked up the glass and took a sip.
A sip of cool water made her feel a little better, and she went downstairs in her wrinkled clothes.
She had only walked halfway when she saw that the first floor, which had been a mess yesterday, was now perfectly clean, as if nothing had happened.
But when Xia Yingying looked up, she saw that Chen Feng's car was no longer there.
Outside, dark clouds filled the sky, and there was a faint rumble of thunder.
"Have you left?" Xia Yingying sat down on the stairs, her tired head resting against the railing.
The fact that Chen Feng left before the auction was scheduled to begin speaks volumes.
Xia Yingying just thought about it and then laughed self-deprecatingly.
Yeah, who would want to be with a slut with a terrible reputation? He's so successful and rich, he could have any girl he wanted.
What am I anyway? He stood up for me yesterday and protected me; that was more than enough.
After today's farewell, I'm afraid we'll never see each other again.
As Xia Yingying leaned against the railing, two lines of tears silently slid down her cheeks as she thought of this.
If I hadn't gone through all that, perhaps I could have been with him...
Given my current reputation, I shouldn't drag him down.
Xia Yingying closed her eyes in anguish, trying to suppress the grief in her heart.
Not long after, a car pulled into the yard, and the villa door was quickly pushed open.
Xia Yingying had lost all interest in running the mine. She leaned against the stairs and spoke weakly, her voice filled with weariness and suppressed sorrow.
"The mine is closed today, everyone should leave."
But the person didn't leave after hearing those words. Instead, he walked over, climbed the stairs, and half-squatted in front of Xia Yingying.
"Why are you crying again?"
The voice was familiar and gentle. Xia Yingying opened her eyes instantly, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at the person in front of her.
"Why are you back?" Xia Yingying asked, her voice trembling with tears.
"Where else could I go if I didn't come back?" Chen Feng smiled upon hearing this and gently wiped away the tears on Xia Yingying's face.
"Why did you come back? You shouldn't have come back." Xia Yingying murmured, tears streaming down her face.
"Why shouldn't you come back? You're still here."
"Xia Yingying, I like you. Be with me."
Chen Feng gently tidied her slightly messy hair, looking into her eyes with an expression more serious than ever before.
Faced with this sudden confession, Xia Yingying was clearly not expected at all. Her slightly wide eyes were still filled with tears as she stared blankly at Chen Feng.
Just a moment later, Xia Yingying's tears welled up again uncontrollably, and she smiled, a smile that was incredibly poignant.
"Chen Feng, do you know what you're saying?"
“I know, of course I know, I am more clear-headed now than ever.”
"You don't know, you have no idea at all." Xia Yingying shook her head vigorously, her eyes blurry with tears.
If it were before, perhaps she could have fooled herself into thinking that they were from two different worlds and could never be together.
But now that Chen Feng has made his feelings clear, how can she pretend not to see it?
Have you thought about how people outside will perceive you if you're with me?
“They’ll point at your back and call you a slut.”
"You will face ridicule and gossip from everyone, not just for a day or two, but every moment, do you understand, Chen Feng?"
(I'll finish the last chapter tomorrow. I love you all.)
