Chapter 382: Disaster (1)
The autumn wind blowing on my body has already brought a bit of chill.
The streets in the city were sparsely populated and traffic was not congested.
Zhang Shuai sent Tian Xin to the Public Security Bureau to take a statement. When he came out, he met Liang Xiao who had just come out in the lobby.
She was surrounded by her parents, Zhou Ruilian, and Lin Zhenhua. Several of them pulled her aside, asking her questions, their faces full of nervousness.
But Lin Zhou was the only one missing.
"Damn, how come this woman is fine?"
Zhang Shuai was so angry when he saw Liang Xiao coming out unharmed that he impulsively went up to him and scolded him.
Tian Xin knew his temper and quickly pulled him back.
"Money really does make the world go round!" he raged. "She's so brave as to order someone to kidnap her. What else would she be afraid of? This woman is a disaster."
Before she could finish her words and was about to leave, Tian Xin saw Lin Zhou appear at the door of the hall.
He walked straight towards Tian Xin as if he didn't see those people.
Zhou Ruilian called him, but he ignored her.
"I know you don't want to see me right now, but I've thought about it. We haven't officially broken up yet. Even if we do, we should give each other some dignity." He extended his hand to Tian Xin, signaling her to take it with his eyes. He then said, "You still owe me a wish? You're not... going to default on it, are you?"
"Xiao Zhou——"
Before Tian Xin could answer, Zhou Ruilian interrupted her.
She winked at Lin Zhenhua, asking him to go first, and then walked towards Tian Xin with a smile.
"Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell? You should rest more these days. Why did you run out so soon?"
Tian Xin accepted these sincere words of concern. She smiled and replied, "I'm fine, Auntie. I'll cooperate with the police to take a statement. I'll be leaving soon."
"Oh, that's good, that's good." Zhou Ruilian breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to look at Lin Zhou, and seemed a little embarrassed: "Uh... girl, you can't blame Xiao Zhou for what happened today. He has never experienced that kind of situation. It's normal for him to be afraid..."
"mom……"
"I don't blame him," Tian Xin interrupted Lin Zhou without listening to Zhou Ruilian finish.
"This is my fault. If he hadn't been so anxious to find me, I wouldn't have fallen into the trap of those two people. Speaking of which, I should thank him."
She turned her gaze towards Lin Zhou, her face finally softening a bit as she smiled and said, "Thank you for your care during this time, both in work and in life. I sincerely thank you. I don't like to owe others anything. Just tell me what you want me to do, and I'll promise you."
In front of Zhou Ruilian, she knew Lin Zhou wouldn't make any excessive demands. Well, like he said, give each other some dignity.
But Zhang Shuai refused.
Seeing Lin Zhou about to speak, he immediately interrupted: "Auntie, right?" He greeted Zhou Ruilian warmly: "I heard Tian Xin tell me about you earlier. Seeing you today, you are indeed as elegant and graceful as I imagined."
Zhou Ruilian was completely bewildered by the compliment. He recalled that he hadn't acted this way when he punched Lin Zhou outside the door.
But the matter was already over, and she didn't want to expose him, so she responded: "Ah, hello, you are..."
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that we should go." He smiled and put his arm around Tian Xin's shoulders, as naturally as a habitual criminal: "Well? She has to get an injection this afternoon, and the doctor specifically told her not to be stimulated for the next few days. I'll take her away first, and you two can talk slowly."
After saying that, he politely turned around and waved to Zhou Ruilian: "See you later!"
Seeing that Tian Xin had already agreed to his plan, but was interrupted by Zhang Shuai, Lin Zhou became furious and quickly took a few steps forward to catch up with the two of them.
At this time, Tian Xin had already walked outside the lobby and parked her car in the yard of the Public Security Bureau. As they walked towards the car, they happened to run into Liang Xiao, who was parked next door.
Liang Xiao and her parents had already gotten into the car. When she saw Tian Xin coming over, she didn't want to pay attention to her at first, but then she saw Lin Zhou catching up with her.
Now she quit.
In a few seconds, her parents got out of the car angrily and blocked Tian Xin's way.
"What are you doing? Get out of the way?" Zhang Shuai stepped forward and pushed her away.
Liang Xiao stumbled, not knowing whether it was intentional or not, and bumped into the arms of Lin Zhou who had just caught up with him.
Tian Xin took a look, said nothing, and went straight to the car.
"Tian Xin..."
"Tian Xin…——"
Lin Zhou and Liang Xiao shouted at the same time.
Zhang Shuai opened the car door for Tian Xin and helped her get in.
Seeing that Tian Xin was about to leave, Lin Zhouyi pushed Liang Xiao away and stepped forward to stop her.
"Don't go, listen to me. I..."
Before he could finish his words, Liang Xiao rushed up like crazy, grabbed Tian Xin's hair in front of everyone, and pulled her out of the car. Then, he threw her onto the road outside.
"You shameless bitch, you slept with another man and even had a child. How dare you seduce Lin Zhou? Who the hell are you?"
No one knew where she got the strength and speed from, but right under everyone's noses, in the blink of an eye, she pounced on Tian Xin and started beating and scolding her.
The people around were dumbfounded, but Zhou Ruilian, who had just chased after them, was quick-witted and stood in front of Tian Xin and pulled her away.
Tian Xin had been feeling dizzy since being rescued, and now she couldn't tell east from west. Liang Xiao's barrage left her speechless, and she had no time to dodge.
But this time she did not swallow her anger like before. After being helped up by Zhou Ruilian, she raised her hand and slapped Liang Xiao.
Only then did everyone react.
Liang Xiao's parents quickly got out of the car and grabbed their daughter, reminding her that this was still the Public Security Bureau. She had just paid to be released and couldn't act willfully anymore.
Zhang Shuai didn't care about the Public Security Bureau or not. Without waiting for Lin Zhou to stop him, he took three or two steps to Liang Xiao with red eyes and slapped her hard in front of her parents.
"Remember this, I never hit a woman. You're the first."
He pointed at Liang Xiao's face, his eyes fierce. "You know how your parents got you out before, and I can't do anything about it. But if you keep your mouth dirty and provoke Tian Xin, I will make you go back the same way you got out. Remember this, I, Zhang Shuai, have a life of my own and I'm not afraid of rich people like you. If you don't want to die, just try it."
"Young man, don't be like this." Liang Xiao's mother was terrified and kept pulling Liang Xiao behind her. "She's ignorant and doesn't speak lightly. Don't take it to heart. I... I... I apologize to you on her behalf, and also to that girl. I'm sorry, you..."
"Who cares about your apology?" Zhang Shuai grabbed Liang Xiao and pulled her out from behind Liang Xiao's mother, throwing her in front of Tian Xin. "Tell her to apologize to Tian Xin. And think carefully about how you should react to instigating those two scumbags."
"If there's even one word that doesn't satisfy her, I'll let you know today what it means to be untouchable."
He looked so scary that even Liang Qiuye was frightened by his glare. No one dared to speak anymore.
Lin Zhou ran over to check if Tian Xin was injured. When he saw that the gauze that had just been wrapped on her elbow was torn off again, he turned around and glared at Liang Xiao in anger.
"Liang Xiao, remember, this is the second time you've hurt her today. How did you get out before? I want you to explain to her again in front of Tian Xin. Otherwise, I will never forgive you again."
"Explain?" Liang Xiao covered his red face with his hand and sneered, looking at Tian Xin: "What's there to explain? Even if I admit that it was me who pushed him out, making him mistakenly think it was you who took him out, do you believe it?"
“…”
Tian Xin's mind exploded with a bang, and she looked incredulous: "What did you say?"
"I'm telling you, it was me. I did everything. I was the one who asked them to kidnap you, I was the one who pushed Lin Zhou out, and I was the one who left you in that room. What do you think? Tian Xin, do you believe me when I say this?"
"Hey, stop talking nonsense."
Before Tian Xin could reply, Liang Qiuye came over and grabbed her, forcing her to shut up.
Zhang Shuai was still waiting for his apology. Upon hearing this, he quickly glanced at Tian Xin's face.
"Then tell the police about it!" Tian Xin gave her a cold look, then looked up at Zhang Shuai and said, "Did you take note of what she just said? Go back in and explain it to the police later. Don't miss this one. Instigating kidnapping is considered an accomplice, and leaving me to the kidnappers should be considered intentional homicide, right?"
She spoke coldly, and there was no trace of a joke on her face.
Considering what Liang Xiao had just done, Liang Qiuye was certain that Tian Xin would not let Liang Xiao go.
He immediately stepped forward and said with an apologetic smile: "The little girl was just saying those words in anger. It's not as serious as you say. What's the point of killing or not killing? Don't talk nonsense, little girl. Xiaoxiao is not as sensible as you are. Don't bother with her."
Tian Xin had never seen Liang Qiuye, but she knew from school that Liang Xiao came from a wealthy family. Seeing that he was dressed the same as Lin Zhenhua, she knew he was a big shot.
She didn't want to waste any more words, so she simply smiled at Liang Qiuye: "You saw with your own eyes how she treated me just now. If I instigated someone to kidnap her today and deliberately left her there alone, what would you think? Would you sue me? I'm afraid you would let me spend the rest of my life in jail!"
Liang Qiuye stammered and said "uh" for a long time, unable to say anything.
"Look, you don't feel pain unless you're whipped. You'd better take good care of your daughter! As for Lin Zhou——"
She turned around and glanced at Lin Zhou.
"Lin Zhou is free to like or dislike someone. Your daughter is taking her anger out on me because of this. As a father, don't you think that's a little ridiculous?"
These words showed no mercy to Liang Qiuye.
Lin Zhou couldn't help but freeze, staring at her foolishly. This kind of dignity was truly Tian Xin. He felt heartbroken, and once again, he regretted leaving her behind.
Tian Xin noticed his look and stared at him too.
Zhang Shuai caught something called guilt from that look.
She feels guilty!
Because Lin Zhou was wronged.
Lin Zhou also understood, but he said nothing. He just went back to the car and got the medicine to apply to her.
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" She took the initiative to bring up the unspoken wish and asked Lin Zhoudao.
"Make me another meal!" Lin Zhou sighed softly as he applied the medicine on her: "I didn't even get to eat a single bite last time."
"Okay." She agreed readily and asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll prepare it." Then she added, "I... am not a very good cook, so I don't know how to cook..."
"Braised pork."
Lin Zhou interrupted her and responded: "You know this."
"Yes, I can do that. But..."
The two of them chatted as if no one was around, and their conversation resolved the misunderstanding that had worried everyone like a gentle spring breeze.
Zhou Ruilian quietly returned to the car, not daring to disturb her son's only remaining happy moment.
Liang Qiuye was frustrated and worried that Liang Xiao would cause trouble again. She hurried her daughter to get in the car and leave while Tian Xin was still not pursuing the matter. However, Zhang Shuai glared at her and said nothing.
As for Zhang Shuai, he knew at that glance: Tian Xin's feelings had never changed. She was angry and annoyed with him only because her expectations were dashed. Now that the misunderstanding was resolved, it was only a matter of time before Lin Zhou wanted to return to her heart.
Only Liang Xiao became angrier the more he watched.
She stood in front of the two men, clenching her fists tightly.
After working so hard for so long, she was outmatched by a "second-hand guy" who had already slept with someone else. She lost completely, with no room for maneuver.
Lin Zhou felt disgusted even when he looked at her.
It shouldn't be like this.
She was unwilling to accept it.
She was unwilling to accept it.
How could such a shameless "bitch" talk about her past in front of so many people, and what qualifications did she have to compete with her for Lin Zhou?
Lin Zhou is so outstanding, what makes her so special?
How does she deserve it?
A rotten person like her shouldn't be born into this world.
Didn’t she say she was from a previous life?
In that case, then where did we come from and where are we going back to?
Thinking of this, she didn't know where she got the courage from. She walked back to the car in a few steps, pulled the driver out of the driver's seat, and sat in it herself.
Her parents didn't know what she was doing crazy, so they quickly shouted and tried to pull her away.
At this time, the security guard from the Public Security Bureau who was guarding a corner of the yard finally heard the noise and rushed over.
Tian Xin and Lin Zhou were standing on the road next to the parking space. She turned the car around and drove out of the parking space.
Zhang Shuai thought she was going to leave, and rolled his eyes in anger. Just as he was about to curse, he found that she pointed the front of the car at Tian Xin on the side of the road, her eyes full of murderous intent.
not good!
He screamed and hurried to chase after him.
But this happened so quickly that no one could react to the fact that she dared to hit someone with her car.
"Lin Zhou, quickly pull her away. Get out of the way..."
The car roared out, and Zhang Shuai screamed as she grabbed the door handle of Liang Xiao's car and reached through the window to grab the steering wheel.
But how can people compare with cars?
Seeing the car rushing out like an airplane, he was dragged for several meters.
"Lin Zhou, get out of the way..."
Liang Xiao shouted, then stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, closed his eyes, and crashed into Tian Xin.
With a loud "bang", everyone screamed and closed their eyes...
