Chapter 2: A story of repaying kindness with enmity
"Cough cough cough..." Father Du choked when he suddenly learned the shocking truth, and subconsciously shouted, "An An..."
Duan Rao looked at him suspiciously, his face full of concern: "Dad, are you okay?"
"No...it's okay." Father Du's face was a little pale, and the look he gave Bai Xiuqing contained a bit more severity and inquiry that had not been there before.
If he still had a trace of sympathy for Bai Xiuqing before this, now that he knew the truth he no longer had any extra thoughts in his mind, and he even wanted to clean up the mess for his deceased good brother.
After Bai Xiuqing finished her performance, she deliberately slowed down her movements and waited for the Du couple to compromise and keep her, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from the two.
Just when she was in a dilemma, a figure appeared at the door.
"Jun Yan?"
"Brother Jun Yan!"
"Who are you?" Du Junyan glanced at Bai Xiuqing coldly, as if he didn't recognize her.
Du Anrao was worried that this was the plot's last-ditch effort to set things right. After all, Du Junyan never appeared at this point in the original novel.
[Why did Big Brother come back at this time? What if he believed Bai Xiuqing's lies and directly recognized the child? Wouldn't all the previous efforts be in vain? ]
Mother Du was horrified when she heard this. She quickly stepped forward and stood between the two of them. "This is your Uncle Bai's daughter. She just came back from abroad. Why did you come back so early today? Don't you have to go to work?"
"I just went to the police station. I came back as there was nothing else."
"Police station? What happened?"
Everyone present was shocked, and Duanrao was the first to prick up his ears.
The original book didn't mention this. Could it be that something else happened that triggered the butterfly effect?
"It's nothing, I'm just cooperating with the investigation. Last month I went on a business trip to City C, and someone maliciously installed a camera in the hotel room I stayed in. Now the person has been caught, and the police asked me to go over and make a statement. After all, I am one of the victims."
"What? There's a camera in the hotel room." Du's mother was surprised, and then seemed to have thought of something, "The secretly filmed video..."
"It was just sent to me, I haven't had time to read it yet."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent.
After a while, the Du family heard someone's cheerful roar like a screaming chicken.
[Hahahaha, are you stupid? There is a camera in the room! How do you explain this? In the myth, Fuxi had to step on a big footprint to conceive him. You two didn't even hold hands and you killed a person. Is it because you breathe the air in the same room? Oh, what kind of unknown high-end black technology is this? It's advanced, really advanced! ]
The Du family couldn't help but smile as they listened to Du Anrao's words which were full of sarcasm and gloating, but they had to make it even.
"Just take it back. After all, it involves privacy. Although we haven't done anything wrong, we don't like everything to be leaked."
When Du's mother said this, she glanced at Bai Xiuqing meaningfully, but in the blink of an eye she saw Bai Xiuqing staggering to the side.
To be precise, he fell straight onto Du Junyan. Most people might subconsciously reach out to help him when seeing this, but this Brother Du was also a wonderful person.
When he saw her lying on the ground, he immediately took a big step back in disgust.
Bai Xiuqing failed to throw herself into his arms and fell to the ground, rolled her eyes and fainted.
Du's father and mother were so frightened that their faces turned pale. It was not because they felt sorry for her, but because they were worried that if something happened to her or the baby in her belly, their family would be completely blackmailed.
Du Anrao hid behind the two of them, looking at one and then the other, like a wild animal who was enjoying the fun.
[Hahaha, big brother, you're taking a step back now, are you serious? And wasn't the heroine jumping around and clamoring to leave just now? Why did she faint so suddenly? Are you pretending? ]
Pretending? Du's mother paused as she stretched out her hand, quickly calmed down, and shouted, "Xiuqing, what happened to you? Quick, quick, call an ambulance and send the person to the First Hospital."
This shout triggered the key words, and Bai Xiuqing quickly realized that pretending to faint at this time was a stupid move, and hurriedly "woke up".
"I, I'm fine, I just have a little low blood sugar, I'll be fine after taking it easy."
Duanrao looked at her with an indescribable look on his face, not hiding his inner disgust at all.
[I would say she was just pretending. With her acting skills, she pretended to be dizzy. It was really eye-catching.]
The three members of the Du family: "..."
Bai Xiuqing sat for a while holding her forehead, and found that no one was holding her other hand when she stretched out it.
He had to shrink back awkwardly, and instead stood up slowly with the help of the table beside him.
"Is it really okay? You fainted, you should go to the hospital for a checkup."
Bai Xiuqing got a headache when she heard the word "examination", especially when she found out that she fainted but Du Junyan didn't even look at her, and there was a ferocious look on his face for a moment.
"It's okay, I've recovered. I suddenly remembered that I had an appointment with the cemetery to visit my parents this afternoon. The time is almost up, so I won't bother you any more. I'll come to visit you later."
After saying this, he no longer took a few steps at a time as before. Instead, he picked up the bag and ran away as fast as the wind, as if there was a dog chasing him from behind.
Du Anrao looked at Bai Xiuqing's fleeing back and shook his head with some regret.
[She was scared away. It seems that the heroine's mental quality is not good enough. 】
Du's mother and others were both angry and amused, thinking that it was fortunate that she had poor psychological quality, otherwise they would have been morally blackmailed in some way.
"I'm sorry, An An, you just came back and you ran into such a bad thing." Du's mother said and glared at Du Junyan.
Du Junyan felt like he was shot even when he was lying down: "..."
"It's okay, it's okay. Every family has some weird relatives and friends. But I think this matter may not have much to do with big brother. Miss Bai's words have a lot of loopholes."
Du Anrao said this to test the attitudes of the three members of the Du family towards this matter. In the original novel, the reason why Bai Xiuqing was able to deceive the Du family so easily was not only because of the help of someone in the hospital, but more because of the guilt for Bai Xiuqing's deceased parents and the trust in her character.
Unfortunately, parents are parents and children are children.
Some children can bring honor to their parents, but some children can ruin their parents' dignity in their later years and make them unable to rest in peace even after death.
Seeing Du Anrao take the initiative to speak up for her eldest son, Mother Du was moved and sighed: "We knew, but we didn't expect that child to become like this."
Duanrao didn't say anything, but he complained a lot in his heart.
[There are so many things you can't imagine! Most people would go to seek revenge on their enemies, and end up in their bed? And this sister is famous for being love-brained and unlucky. Just as she registered the child with the eldest brother, the child's biological father, who has half of the criminal law on his back, came to our house and destroyed our family. The main theme is repaying kindness with grievances and repaying kindness with hatred. ]
Three people from the Du family:!
