Chapter 121 Hope and New Courage
Bo Jinxiu stared at the little man on the tree with a frown.
The little girl sat on the tree, swinging her chubby legs: "The river water is very cold at night. It's not a pleasant feeling."
Although she looks young, her voice is also very childish.
But the words he spoke had a crispness that was beyond his age.
"Go away." A hint of anger appeared on the face of the ten-year-old Bo Jinxiu.
At that time, he had already lost all hope.
Although he is only ten years old, as the heir of the family, he already has the mentality of an adult.
At that time, he had just learned the dirtiest, darkest, and most shameful secret of his family.
In addition, Bo Wanhua persecuted him.
The reason he was hospitalized at that time was because Bo Wanhua personally pushed him into the swimming pool because he was afraid of water and could not swim.
He struggled desperately in the swimming pool.
The air in the lungs also disappeared little by little.
He sank slowly, bit by bit, to the bottom of the pool.
And Bo Wanhua was standing by the pool.
Ten-year-old Bo Jinxiu looked at her under the water. Even through the surging water, he could still see the indifference in her eyes.
At that time, Bo Jinxiu was completely desperate.
I just think death is better.
But in the end, he was discovered by the housekeeper and pulled out from the bottom of the pool.
When he was pulled out, he had been suffocating for several minutes.
The old lady sent him to the hospital crying.
After waking up, he saw Bo Wanhua standing next to his bed.
He lied and said he had no recollection of what happened.
The doctor said it might be temporary amnesia caused by suffocation.
He didn't lose his memory, he remembered everything.
I remember how Bo Wanhua pushed him into the pool with her own hands.
I remember when he was struggling, he kept shouting "sister, save me".
But Bo Wanhua looked at him coldly, unmoved.
I remember the despair and powerlessness he felt as he slowly sank to the bottom of the water.
I also remember the hateful and disgusted look in Bo Wanhua's eyes when she looked at him...
After all, he was only ten years old.
Suddenly I felt that life was meaningless and I couldn't see any hope.
He should not have been born; he was born filthy and sinful.
His existence is the original sin for this family.
It is the humiliation and darkness that can never be washed away.
He did not come out of love, but as a punishment for all.
It would be better to die.
Everyone will be liberated by this.
He even developed a revengeful mentality.
Bo Wanhua pushed him into the pool with her own hands.
Would she be shocked if she found her own body in the river at sunrise?
Would you feel happy or a little sad?
Would she shed a tear for him?
At that moment, the ten-year-old Bo Jinxiu almost jumped.
If the five-year-old Jiang Ciyou hadn't shown up that day.
Faced with the boy's malicious expulsion.
Little Jiang Ciyou not only did not leave, but jumped down from the tree in a few steps and came directly to him.
"If you jump, I will save you."
Bo Jinxiu frowned and looked at her: "You are so young, don't overestimate your abilities."
"I overestimated my own abilities, and I just learned to swim, so I'm not very good at it yet. So if I save you, I might end up being dragged down by you and drowned with you."
A flash of shock flashed across Bo Jinxiu's eyes: "I don't want you to save me."
"But I can't just watch you die."
Bo Jinxiu looked at the short little girl.
There is an indescribable complexity in my heart.
A strange little girl said that she couldn't watch her die.
But his blood relatives can push him into hell with their own hands.
At that moment, Bo Jinxiu felt extremely sad.
Bo Jinxiu was silent, looking quietly at the calm river surface.
But inside, there are turbulent waves.
The little girl continued to ask: "Brother, why do you want to die?"
No one would put up a psychological defense against a five-year-old girl: "Because I can't find a reason to live."
Little Bo Jinxiu's eyes were filled with sadness: "No one wants me to live."
The little girl suddenly blinked her eyes: "Then I'll give you a reason."
Bo Jinxiu turned around and asked: "What's the reason?"
"Then you should live for me."
Bo Jinxiu was very surprised: "For you?"
"Yeah, didn't you say that no one wants you to live? I want you to live, so that you can live for me in the future."
At that moment, Bo Jinxiu just thought she was very childish.
Simply speaking, children speak without restraint.
But in an instant, tears welled up on my face again.
Yes, that reason she casually said, which even made some sense, actually became the reason for him to survive when he was forced into desperate situations for so many years.
"Brother, you are so handsome, don't be depressed. Mom said that you should be strong when encountering things. Life is very precious. Look at every tree and every flower here. Do they think about why they want to live? Do they find reasons to live? No, they just live."
"Brother, if you don't have any friends, I will be your friend. If no one loves you, I will love you, okay?"
"Brother, live well."
Although she is young, she seems to be able to see through people's hearts.
Her face looked so childish, but her words were like a knife.
It suddenly cleared the fog in his life.
Make him wake up.
Why must he die just because others want him to die?
They wanted him to die, but he insisted on living well and watching them suffer.
If he was born a devil, then he would be their devil.
It also started from that day.
Bo Jinxiu woke up completely, gave up his obsession, and officially stood on the opposite side of Bo Wanhua.
This marked the beginning of a decades-long confrontation and struggle.
Of course, whenever he was in despair, he would always think of the little voice holding a lollipop in his memory.
And her words.
"If you have no friends, I will be your friend. If no one loves you, I will love you..."
However, Jiang Ciyu had long forgotten this past.
After all, it was just the childish talk of a five-year-old child.
But he took it seriously for more than ten years.
Then I spent some time in the hospital.
She came to see him every day.
She stuck to him like a little tail, coaxed him to take her out to play, and tricked him into using his pocket money to buy ice cream.
He also knew why she was in the hospital.
Because she had headaches, it seemed that there was some mild lesion in a small area of her brain nerves.
But the doctor said that maybe the brain nerves have not yet fully developed and the disease may heal itself during the growth process.
But it could also get worse.
At least with the current medical level, there is no other way but to observe.
Later.
She was discharged from the hospital.
She left suddenly.
On the day of discharge, he missed the chance to say goodbye because he went somewhere far away to buy her some crab roe buns.
When we arrived at her ward, it was empty.
Not a trace.
Finally, he found a small rabbit hairpin under the bed.
It was the only thing she had left.
He kept it for many years and took it out to look at it from time to time.
There are many tiny crystals on the rabbit hairpin.
The rabbit's nose is a large blue diamond.
Of course it's fake, probably made of glass.
Then one day, the blue glass diamond fell off.
He had an earring made for him.
I still wear it on my ears.
Jiang Ciyou saw the earrings on his ears and asked him several times which woman gave them to him.
He wanted to tell her.
That was the hope and new courage she gave him when he was five years old.
