"That's roughly what it means. She took Xiao Ming away and kept him in a sealed room for three days and three nights before coming out."
"Then he gave us a talisman containing Xiao Ming's lifeblood, and told us to find a strong person, dissolve it in water, and feed it to him."
"So that's why you found me?" Xiao Ming stroked his arm. "Is this the reason why the lines of life appeared on my arm when I was weak?"
"I originally wanted to find someone else, but Qin Yuan took a fancy to you."
Xiao Chenhe avoided Xiao Chen's gaze: "In her words, Xiao Gucheng's son doesn't deserve to live so healthily."
"Yes, it fits her vicious personality." Xiao Chen nodded: "But this so-called borrowing of life doesn't seem to be very successful."
"Although Xiao Ming's health is better than before, it's still not that good."
"That's because your fate is too tough." Xiao Yuanhe shook his head. "Qin Youxin said that for people with a tough fate, borrowing the life talisman won't be very effective."
"So it was all in vain?" Xiao Chen smiled. He slowly stood up and said, "Okay, thank you for telling me this."
"Lin Fang will heal you. After that, you will return to prison. After you finish serving your sentence, as long as you don't provoke me, I won't care about you."
"But if you want to cause trouble for me, I'm sorry, but I'll send you back in the same way you got out."
"Xiao Chen..." Xiao Yuanhe's voice trembled slightly.
"Just tell me if you have something to say." Xiao Chen stopped.
"Do you... hate me?" Xiao Yuanhe murmured.
"Hate?" Xiao Chen raised his head, revealing a thoughtful look.
He murmured, "Maybe I did hate you. After all, I used to think you were my biological father."
"I don't understand. We are both your children, so why are Xiao Ming and I treated so differently?"
"But now I understand all the reasons, and I can't hate you anymore, because you don't deserve my hatred."
Xiao Chen slowly turned around and looked directly into Xiao Yuanhe's eyes: "As for you, do you feel even a little regret or guilt for what you did?"
"I...actually, I've regretted it since I took you away."
Xiao Yuanhe's eyes were a little moist: "I also sent you back quietly once."
"But because of Qin Yuan, I had to bite my teeth and suppress this thought."
"You... were able to find your biological parents and reunite as a family. I'm actually happy for you." Xiao Yuanhe murmured, "Your ending shouldn't have been like that."
What Xiao Yuanhe said might be true, or it might just be a hypocritical act.
But these are no longer important to Xiao Chen.
All the grievances and grudges from the previous life were completely wiped out at this moment. From now on, whether Xiao Yuanhe was alive or dead, rich or poor, it had nothing to do with Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Yuanhe, you don't want to die again, right?" Xiao Chen asked.
He was curious whether Xiao Yuanhe had awakened to the events of his previous life.
"No, I don't want to die again. That feeling... is too painful." Xiao Yuanhe closed his eyes in pain.
"Then stay away from your biological son and your wife." Xiao Chen reminded coldly, then turned and left.
When I went out, Lin Fang and Xiao Yan came over together.
He was holding a medical kit, apparently to treat Xiao Yuanhe.
"Xiao Chen, how is it?" Xiao Yan asked.
"I've figured out what I wanted to know." Xiao Chen nodded gently, then looked at Lin Fang: "What are the chances of him recovering?"
"He is conscious, but a complete recovery is unlikely." Lin Fang shook his head.
"Chen Qingshan's medicine was too toxic and damaged his nerves, so from now on he can only walk slowly with crutches, and that's his limit."
"But because of this poisoning, his body has suffered significant damage, and his original lifespan will be greatly reduced."
Xiao Chen nodded slightly. This was the best ending for Xiao Yuanhe.
"I contacted a nursing home and will send him there when he's almost recovered, so he can spend the rest of his life there."
Xiao Yan sighed: "In name, he is still my father, so I can't just leave him alone."
"This is as I should. He and I have settled our grievances. What happens to him in the future has nothing to do with me." Xiao Chen said.
After leaving the hospital, Zhou Jun called and said that there was some clue about Chen Qingshan's identity, and asked Xiao Chen to go to the Public Security Bureau.
Xiao Chen arrived at Zhou Jun's office. Zhou Jun poured him a glass of water and then sat down.
"Brother, I asked you to come here today mainly to tell you that Zhao Qing's identity has been confirmed. He is Chen Qingshan, who committed a major crime back then."
"It's actually him." Xiao Chen clenched his fists. "Where has he been all these years? Who is he working for?"
"We don't have much information at the moment. We only know that after he escaped, he met an important figure who changed his name and identity."
Zhou Jun took out a document from the drawer: "This is the address on Zhao Qing's ID card."
"But our people checked the address and found no such person."
"Also, according to some clues, he should have a wife and a child after changing his name to Zhao Qing, but there is currently no clue about his wife and child."
"If we find his wife and children, we can figure out who he has been working for all these years?" Xiao Chen fell into deep thought.
"Yes, but this matter may be a bit difficult. His identity is illegal, and there is no way to check his wife and children."
Zhou Jun took a sip of water. "But it is speculated that he came from Yanjing, so his wife and children should also be in Yanjing."
"Also, he went after Xiao Yuanhe to kill him and silence him. Who ordered him to do that is also a mystery."
"Thank you, Brother Zhou. These things are all directed at me." Xiao Chen closed his eyes and digested the information he had obtained.
The person behind Chen Qingshan must be Xiao Wanli. Xiao Wanli saved Chen Qingshan's life and even changed his name and gave him a brand new identity.
And it gave him a new family, so he was extremely grateful to Xiao Wanli.
He must have done a lot of dirty work for Xiao Wanli over the years. As long as we find his family and children, we can get some evidence.
Although these evidences cannot directly bring down Xiao Wanli, they can become the last straw that breaks the camel's back for the Xiao family at a critical moment.
"Brother, your situation is a bit complicated." Zhou Jun sighed, then smiled and said, "But congratulations, no matter what, you have found your biological parents."
"There is nothing more fortunate than this."
"Yes, Brother Zhou, everything is going in a good direction after all." Xiao Chen nodded.
"Okay, Brother Xiao, I will inform you as soon as I get any new clues, but you must also pay attention to your own safety in Yanjing." Zhou Jun gave a few more instructions.
