Chapter 24 The Human World is Truly Complex



During that time, Qian's mother went back to her hometown to take care of the elderly in her family. Although people joked that she was still vigorous despite her age, no one suspected anything.

Everything was planned by Qian's father.

How could Qian's mother possibly treat the child born from her husband's infidelity well? After Qian Feipeng was taken home by his father, he was often abused, not fed or clothed, and often had injuries on his body.

Qian's father was a rough man who wouldn't care about such things, or even if he did, he wouldn't care at all. As long as people were alive, that was enough. He even repeatedly pressured Qian Feipeng to surpass Huo Tingjun in the future.

But with his genes set in there, coupled with the physical and psychological torment, Qian Feipeng simply couldn't calm down, so how could he possibly compete?

Qian Feipeng realized that he was no match for him, so in order to save himself, he started to think of his own way, which was to destroy Huo Tingjun.

The Huo family dotes on Huo Tingjun. If Huo Tingjun gets into trouble, the Huo family will inevitably be affected.

But harming someone openly and honestly is definitely not an option. Qian's father also realized that he couldn't harm Huo Tingjun quietly. Later, Qian Feipeng suggested that he could give Huo Tingjun an appetite stimulant so that Huo Tingjun would get fatter and fatter until he ate himself to death.

No one would suspect them.

It's truly frightening that an eight-year-old child could come up with such a chilling idea.

On the matter of the Huo family, Qian's mother was unusually in agreement with Qian's father, so she put a lot of effort into cooking every meal. Because Qian Feipeng had gotten involved with Huo Tingjun, Qian's mother also gave him a rare moment of kindness, and things were a bit easier for her at home.

The fact that he received preferential treatment because of another person made Qian Feipeng, who initially felt guilty, feel jealous and hateful.

They initially agreed to release the animals once a week, then it changed to two or three times a week, and finally it was released almost every day.

...

The reason it took a week to investigate the matter was because food testing took some time.

Although we now have the testing technology, it takes a long time, which is why it has been delayed.

In order to completely shut down the Qian family, Huo Tingjun followed Huo Tingxiao's instructions and tried every day to retrieve the food that Qian Feipeng had brought him, then handed it over to Huo Tingxiao, who would then have it tested.

Mr. Huo then sent people to investigate the matter of the medicine. The undercover investigators found the same ingredients as the appetite stimulant residue remaining in Huo Tingjun's body at the Qian family's house...

What's even more outrageous is that the appetite stimulant was actually something used to feed pigs in the countryside! It was a drug that had been banned by the state, and the Qian family had specially collected it from some villagers in the countryside who hadn't been completely eradicated.

The delay was due to the gradual investigation and resolution of a series of matters.

The Huo family showed no mercy and immediately called the police. For adultery and child abuse, Qian's father was dismissed and investigated, and will likely have to leave the military. Qian's mother lost her job. Qian Feipeng escaped unscathed because he was a minor, but schools won't accept such a problem child, and no one knows what his future holds.

But none of the Huo family members showed any sympathy.

No one can feel sympathy for someone so young to have such wicked thoughts.

If it weren't for their family's extraordinary encounter that allowed them to hear Wen Xingyue's thoughts, they would have been the ones to suffer ruin and death.

The Qian family's affair has caused quite a stir, attracting much discussion among residents of the family compound.

"That was wonderful."

After listening to Huo Tingxiao's series of words, Wen Xingyue was stunned and her mind was a little slow to process what he had said.

"The human mind is truly complex," Wen Xingyue remarked.

“You’re awake now, Xiao Jun should be getting out of school soon. Don’t you like the hand-pulled pancakes at his school? You can get up and get ready to eat.” Huo Tingxiao smiled.

Who can argue with that?

What happened back then has continued for more than a decade.

Back then, it was clear that Qian's father had tried to bribe his superiors instead of taking the proper route for the promotion. When this was discovered, the superiors concealed it because the soldiers were their own and did not report it. Moreover, the promotion spot was originally obtained by Huo's father based on his own abilities. However, Qian's father always felt that Huo's father had obtained it through improper means, so he held a grudge.

They had considered targeting Huo Tingxiao before, but Huo Tingxiao was cold and intelligent from a young age, and the Qian family had never succeeded. After Huo Tingxiao joined the army, those little tricks disappeared. Unexpectedly, the Qian family had not given up and had set their sights on Huo Tingjun.

All I can say is, never underestimate a person's jealousy.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are you awake? I bought your favorite scallion pancakes, they're still warm, come and try them."

Speak of the devil, and he appears; a commotion erupted from the living room.

Now, the first thing Huo Tingjun does when he gets home is to address his sister-in-law, instead of asking "Wang Ma, is dinner ready?" as he used to.

"I'm awake, I'm awake, I'm awake."

Upon hearing this, Wen Xingyue immediately raised her voice in response.

"Let's go, let's get out."

Huo Tingxiao placed the slippers in front of her.

Ever since Huo's mother mentioned it last time, Wen Xingyue has frequently come to his room, and she even takes her afternoon nap there.

The situation has obviously changed quite a bit.

Her face was even more delicate and fair, her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, her peach blossom eyes were charming and moist, her skin was as delicate as jade, and her lips were moist and red.

As Wen Xingyue stayed in this body for longer and became more and more integrated with it, her temperament and appearance underwent significant changes.

One glance at someone and it's as if your soul is stolen away.

Wen Xingyue put on her shoes and left the room. Huo Tingxiao skillfully folded the quilt and pillows before leaving the room.

Outside the door.

"Sister-in-law, try it quickly, it's hot. I asked them to add your favorite pork tenderloin."

Huo Tingjun hadn't even put his schoolbag down when he saw Wen Xingyue come out. He quickly took out a hand-pulled pancake wrapped in an oil paper bag from his pocket.

Recently, a lot of delicious food has appeared outside the school: hand-pulled pancakes, milk tea shops, cold potato noodles, vegetable skewers, and even double-skin milk pudding, all sorts of strange and unusual things, springing up like mushrooms after rain, many of which Huo Tingjun had never heard of before.

Huo Tingjun would always bring Wen Xingyue something after school.

Because of his staunch defense of his sister-in-law, his allowance was doubled, and his older brother also secretly gave him some more. So when buying things for Wen Xingyue, Huo Tingjun was not stingy at all and only bought the best.

"Thank you, Little Fatty, sob sob, what would I do without you?"

Wen Xingyue tore open the oil paper bag with a loud thud, smelled the tempting aroma, and took a big bite, her eyes lazily squinting in comfort.

Little Fatty always brings back delicious food.

Wen Xingyue didn't even dare to think about how many delicious foods she would have missed if it weren't for Xiao Pang.

Although Wang Ma's cooking at home is delicious, sometimes it's necessary to supplement with some junk food.

There's a saying that goes, "Homegrown flowers don't smell as good as wildflowers, and home-cooked meals don't smell as good as picnic meals."

"Hehe, I'm glad you like it, sister-in-law. There are so many delicious things outside the school now, I can't buy them all. When you come to pick me up from school again, I'll take you to buy some."

Huo Tingjun scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.

My sister-in-law is so happy with just a little food; she's so easy to please.
