Chapter 2227 In vain
The days with Uncle Wang Quan were one of the few peaceful times for him and his mother. Even though his father was not at home, he and his mother seemed to have gradually forgotten his existence and they lived their lives peacefully.
Many years later, when Xiao Jun recalled his childhood, he could still remember Uncle Quan silently accompanying him and his mother.
But the peace didn't last long...
Xiao Jun clearly remembers that it was late one winter night. His mother picked him up from his sleep, and Uncle Quan carried his luggage. Instead of taking the elevator, they went downstairs and then went out through the back door of the villa.
He lay on his mother's shoulder, rubbing his sleepy eyes, and asked his mother and Uncle Quan where they were going.
Uncle Quan was silent. His mother quickly stroked his head and said, "Ah Jun, you've always wanted to live in a tree house in the forest. Let's go now. Don't cry, okay?"
He nodded obediently.
In fact, he has always been very well behaved. He knows that his mother is in poor health and in a bad mood, so he is usually very obedient.
Later they got in the car. Uncle Quan drove fast and steadily. Xiao Jun and his mother sat in the passenger seat, and his mother hugged him tightly.
Mother and Uncle Quan seemed nervous as they said nothing and only made occasional eye contact.
The journey was long. He lay in his mother's arms, imagining what life would be like in the tree house, and soon fell asleep again.
He woke up with a start when the car suddenly braked.
He saw his mother covering her face and crying. Uncle Quan reached out and held his mother's hand, their fingers clasped together.
Then someone opened the driver's door and took Uncle Quan out of the car.
Xiao Jun rubbed his eyes and looked out the window, only to find that three or four cars had surrounded them.
His father opened the passenger door, pulled him out of his mother's arms, and handed him to Uncle Wei.
Then my father slapped my mother hard, and she lay on the road with her hair ruffled by the night wind.
Xiao Jun struggled to find his mother, but Uncle Wei held him tightly and whispered, "Jun, be good and don't go over there."
Uncle Quan wanted to go forward to check on his mother, but his father's subordinates twisted his arm and pressed him against the front of the car.
The mother lay on the ground, sobbing softly, looking so pitiful.
Then she got up and ran towards the end of the road, desperately and without looking back.
Xiao Jun shouted "Mom", but she seemed not to hear her. She just ran and stumbled.
But how could he run away under his father's nose?
The father just made a gesture and someone immediately came forward to control her.
The mother's struggle and escape were in vain and like a joke.
She screamed at her father like a mad woman, hysterical and desperate.
Now Xiao Jun certainly understood that his mother had tried to escape that night with the help of Uncle Wang Quan, but was unfortunately caught by his father.
And he will never know what kind of life they would be living now if they had successfully escaped that night.
Do they live in the countryside far away from the city, or do they live an ordinary life in a bustling city under an assumed name?
Whenever Xiao Jun thought of that situation, tears would well up in his eyes involuntarily.
If they had escaped successfully that day, perhaps his life would have been completely different.
Mother wouldn't have to go through so much pain and unbearable things, and Uncle Quan might... become his father.
Unfortunately, there is no if...
He and his mother were taken back home, and he never saw Uncle Quan again from that day on.
What is certain is that Uncle Quan was punished by his father.
As for why my mother and Uncle Quan ran away together, and why they held hands tightly when they separated...
As a child, Xiao Jun had already vaguely guessed the reason.
Perhaps, during the days when her mother was neglected by her father, Uncle Quan gave her warmth and care, and she also developed feelings for the handsome and gentle Uncle Quan...
If this is true, Uncle Quan will have no chance of survival.
He thought that Uncle Quan had died long ago.
Since that day, the mother's mental state has become worse and worse. She started drinking heavily. When she was drunk, she sometimes cried and sometimes laughed. Sometimes she hugged Xiao Jun tightly and said that Ajun was the only one she had now. Sometimes she beat him up, as if she wished she had never given birth to him.
Later on, there were many painful memories.
Xiao Jun no longer wanted to recall those things. He learned to close his memories and buried those unchangeable and painful pasts deep in his heart. He imagined that his father still loved him and his mother, and that his father was a victim.
Maybe it was because my mother wronged my father first that my father no longer loves her.
Which man can tolerate his wife’s betrayal?
He couldn't know the exact story between his parents, but thinking about it this way made him feel a little better.
Otherwise he would not be able to face his father, and he would not know how to live each day in peace.
Now, after more than ten years, Uncle Quan stood in front of him again. The handsome and tall man in the past was now unrecognizable, and looked as hideous as a devil from hell.
The shock in Xiao Jun's heart cannot be described in words.
"Uncle Quan..." He called Uncle Wang Quan like he did when he was a child.
Uncle Quan smiled bitterly: "Ajun, you have grown up. If your mother saw you now, she would definitely be very pleased."
Will it?
Will my mother be pleased or ashamed of him?
After his mother became mentally ill, she hated his father and therefore hated him. Every time his mother beat him, it was because he had his father's blood flowing in his body.
However, when my mother was mentally stable, she proudly said, "My Ah Jun will definitely become a great painter in the future."
Whether his mother hated or loved him, she is gone, and whatever the living people think is just self-consolation.
So no matter how much I feel, it will be of no use. The most important thing right now is to rescue Ruomu from Uncle Quan who has almost lost his mind.
"Uncle Quan, please let Ruomu go. She has nothing to do with the Xiao family." Xiao Jun said sincerely.
"Then call someone with connections!"
"I, I'll switch with her." Xiao Jun said, walking around the swimming pool and approaching Ruomu.
But Wang Quan immediately put the knife to Ruomu's neck and threatened: "Don't come over here, I will kill her now!"
Xiao Jun didn't dare to go any closer.
"If you want a member of the Xiao family, I'm them! If you have any grudges, come to me for revenge!"
"I'm here to avenge Qingxi and I's daughter," Wang Quan said, "but Jun, I can't take your life. If I kill you, Qingxi won't forgive me when I get there."
Xiao Jun looked at Wang Quan in disbelief. Qingxi, Xiao Jun's mother was Shen Qingxi. Wang Quan had just said that he wanted to avenge him and Qingxi's daughter.
So my mother really had an affair with Uncle Wang Quan, and they even had a daughter, but she must have been eliminated by my father...
