Chapter 248: Suppression from behind]
Since that day, Hong Xin's life has changed dramatically.
At first, when people around her heard about this, they all sympathized with her and came to the hospital to see her.
But every time other people's eyes touched this face crawling with "centipedes", their expressions would always become unnatural, and even unconsciously disgusted.
Some people brought their children to visit Hong Xin, and the children were so scared that they cried loudly, shouting that there were monsters, and even ran around screaming.
Hong Xin's already painful heart was stabbed again and again by these pictures.
Even if Hong Tiansheng and Luo Youfu stopped the people who wanted to visit in time, the knife that stabbed into the flesh would eventually leave scars that could not be healed.
Whether it was in her heart or on her face.
As time passed, some new changes appeared.
I don't know who first raised the question -
"Why did the man disfigure Hong Xin?"
Some people said that the man was angry because his courtship failed.
Some people said that the man was mentally ill.
But some people asked -
"Is it really all the man's fault?"
"Is Hong Xin not at all wrong?"
Some people retorted, didn't Hong Xin reject the man? The man was too crazy and kept chasing Hong Xin!
But some people also asked again -
"Why did that man keep chasing Hong Xin and disfigure her after half a year?"
"Did Hong Xin do something to that man?"
"For example, she refused on the surface, but actually gave hints in private, and kept the man hanging. The other party chased her for half a year without results, and was too angry to do that."
"That man is too miserable... Being hung by a woman, he did a bad thing in a hurry, and was caught eating peanuts. How sad his family must be?"
"Hong Xin really hurt that family..."
...
Three people make a tiger.
The outside world's view on Hong Xin's disfigurement has gradually increased from sympathy at the beginning to a lot of doubts.
After hearing this, Hong Tiansheng was so angry that he fought with the gossipers, but he still did not clear Hong Xin's name.
He was also bitten back by someone, saying that he was angry because his secrets were touched.
After being discharged from the hospital, Hong Xin stayed at home for a long time, unwilling to go out or see anyone. Even when hiding in a dark room, she would cover her face with a scarf, leaving nothing exposed except her eyes.
Over the past twenty years, Hong Tiansheng and Luo Youfu have never stopped caring for their daughter, which has gradually made Hong Xin willing to step into the world outside the house.
Although the scarf on her face is still tightly wrapped, Hong Xin is getting better.
But -
that doesn't mean she is really well.
"After the reform and opening up, Youfu and I took Xinxin out to do business. She is a smart kid. She was able to impress some difficult clients that we couldn't handle and get them to sign contracts."
Hong Tiansheng said in a low voice, "I saw that she was slowly starting to smile, and I thought that although she still had some problems, she was generally fine. But I didn't expect that today she would..."
Thinking of Hong Xin's bloody hands, Hong Tiansheng, as a father, felt heartbroken.
It turned out that his daughter had never recovered and had been tortured by the past.
After hearing these past events, the atmosphere in the room was a little heavy for a while.
Ye Xianghong also had red eyes and said, "You have worked so hard these years..."
She could understand the feelings of Hong Tiansheng and Luo Youfu. Her daughter had also been slandered, and she had fought with others out of anger, but it didn't work.
It just makes those who gossip to her face turn around and gossip behind her back, hurting her daughter in secret.
"Mr. Hong."
At this time, Ye Qingyue suddenly spoke up, she said: "According to what you said, Aunt Hong's condition should be getting better."
After all, people who are really in anxiety and depression are not in the mood to overcome psychological shadows, go out with their parents to discuss business, and deal with difficult customers.
If Hong Tiansheng didn't lie, Hong Xin's character might be stronger than she thought.
The disfigurement incident did not completely defeat Hong Xin.
Ye Qingyue also listened to Hong Tiansheng's words and had a new view of Hong Xin's situation.
She said, "Logically speaking, something like what happened today shouldn't have happened."
Hong Tiansheng heard something else in her words and hurriedly asked, "You mean...Xinxin has been stimulated recently, which caused her condition, which was originally improving, to suddenly worsen?"
"Yes."
Ye Qingyue said, "Do you know what troubles she has had recently? Not necessarily recently, anything that happened within the past year counts."
Upon hearing this, the first person Hong Tiansheng thought of was Qin Yong.
He subconsciously wanted to say something, but seeing so many people in the room, he shut up again.
It would not be a glorious thing to tell others that the young lady is now entangled with a married man who pretends to have amnesia.
Seeing that Hong Tiansheng was hesitant to speak, Ye Feng suddenly said, "Mom, can Grandma Luo take care of Aunt Hong alone? Let's go and take a look."
"Okay."
Ye Xianghong nodded and went out with Ye Feng.
Ye Mei said, "The food is a little cold. I'll put it on the stove to warm it up. Let's eat together later."
After Ye Mei left with the last two plates of food, Hong Tiansheng smiled bitterly and said, "Doctor Ye, I'm really sorry to bother you." They
are all good people.
Ye Qingyue shook her head, indicating that he didn't need to care, and said, "Did you want to talk about... Qin Yong?" "
Yeah."
Hong Tiansheng said, "I'm a rough man. I'm not careful about emotional matters, but after being with Youfu for so many years, I can still see some problems."
"After Qin Yong appeared, although Xinxin became more cheerful, there are too many things wrong with her compared to before."
He frowned, as if he was organizing his words, "Doctor Ye, you may not know my daughter Xinxin. She has been an independent child since she was young. Even though she was kept at home for a few years because of her disfigurement, she did not make a mess of the room. Instead, she would take the initiative to help you and me clean up."
Although Hong Xin was in a bad state and was not as careful as before when cleaning, and even did not do it well, she did not leave everything to her parents. She
still did her own things.
"But after being with Qin Yong, Xinxin became... how should I put it, she is very dependent on Qin Yong."
Hong Tiansheng said: "I know that some girls will act coquettishly and ask the man to do things when they are dating, to satisfy the man's self-esteem and deepen the relationship between the two, but Xinxin's dependence is different."
"She leaves things to Qin Yong, and then she becomes unwilling to do things. She only wants Qin Yong to help her."
Hong Tiansheng said: "It's like... she can't do those things, only Qin Yong can do them."
His words were a bit confusing, but Ye Qingyue understood.
"Are you saying that Aunt Hong is a little too dependent on Qin Yong, and even lost herself?"
Ye Qingyue's words hit the nail on the head.
Hong Tiansheng nodded vigorously, "Yes! That's how it feels! When she's with Qin Yong, Xinxin seems to be that guy's appendage!"
"Obviously, my Xinxin knows more than Qin Yong and can do more things. That guy is not as good as Xinxin in every way, but when they are together, it seems that Xinxin is the one who is not as good as him."
This feeling made Hong Tiansheng feel very uncomfortable.
Ye Qingyue was thoughtful, and she said, "Mr. Hong, this is just my guess. That Qin Yong...may be suppressing Aunt Hong behind your back." As soon as
she finished speaking, Hong Tiansheng's expression instantly became ugly.
