"The Working Girl" saves the villain in his childhood (Sixteen)...
For the past eighteen years, Ye Xiqing has changed jobs every now and then, and Qiu Hui and her daughter have gotten used to it. But they never expected that this time she would become a criminal police officer!
Ye Xiqing smiled and said to Qiu Hui, "So, now that Xiaoya is learning from me, you're not worried anymore, are you?"
Qiu Hui rubbed her hands together excitedly and nodded repeatedly, then realized something was wrong and quickly shook her head: "No, no, your previous job was actually quite good, I wasn't afraid to learn at all..."
Besides, being a police officer is a bit dangerous, and Xiaoya is also a little scared if she were to do it...
Unlike Qiu Hui, who was older and somewhat conservative, Qiu Yi was completely happy.
"Wow! Aunt Fu! You're amazing! Does that mean you'll be able to carry a gun in the future?!"
"I've never seen a real gun in my life except on TV. There's no one else here. Can I touch it?"
Yes, it was Qiu Yi's idea all along, but unfortunately, she herself cannot carry a gun when she is not on duty.
However, she has been undergoing special training for the past few months. Thanks to her top-notch physique befitting a diva, coupled with the physical strength honed through years of working-class experience, she remains vigorous and remarkably successful at her age, astonishing a group of coaches.
I originally thought that even if she got the job, she would go to an administrative department.
However, her pathological illiteracy has not been cured over the years, so she cannot do any clerical work and can only fight on the front lines.
Kuang Qimei didn't know what to say about this matter, but during the arrest of Huo Yu, a group of young people, for some reason, almost let him escape.
On the contrary, the old lady showed her prowess, and after a few rounds, she arrested the person. Who would dare to object?
Old ginger is spicier, and Ye Xiqing is a very spicy piece of ginger, so she gloriously became a front-line member and learned a few fighting skills, which she can teach to Qiu Tianyi for free.
Qiu Yi is young and resilient, so she was very happy to hear this.
Qiu Hui also watches the news every day and often hears about clients who are dissatisfied with the defense results and stab their lawyers in the back. She is very scared. If Xiao Fu were willing to teach her daughter a few tricks, that would be great!
And so, Ye Xiqing and Qiu Tianyi, one old and one young, would practice alone in the square near their neighborhood every day after get off work.
A few days later, Qiu Yi had broken her bones in a fall. She drove home in tears, saying, "Aunt Fu...you didn't use the right amount of force..."
Ye Xiqing was speechless: "You're so much younger than me, how come you're even more weak than me?"
Qiu Yi was on the verge of tears: "How should I know... it might be the 'fragile college student' debuff..."
"Now that you're not a college student anymore, you'd better go out and train. With this kind of physique, if a client tries to stab you with a knife, you might really be no match for them."
"Don't say things like that! It's like being a lawyer means you'll get stabbed! If the risk were that high, who would want to be a lawyer!"
"It's hard to say. If you don't meet someone, it's one in a million. If you do, it's one hundred percent."
"Waaaaah! It's because you guys say that every day that I'm starting to have paranoia too!"
When Qiu Yi brought her new car back, the job of driving was completely handed over to her. Qiu Yi, who was sore all over, drove while in pain, while Ye Xiqing leaned back in the passenger seat, enjoying a rare moment of peace.
However, when they got downstairs, an uninvited guest broke the peace.
Upon seeing who it was, Qiu Tianyi was even angrier than Ye Xiqing. She rolled down the car window and stuck her head out: "What are you doing here?!"
Huo Yueze stood by the roadside, looking just like a pathetic stray dog.
He seemed utterly exhausted, staring intently into the car: "I need to talk to you."
Qiu Yi wanted to scold this ingrate a few more times, but Ye Xiqing brushed her off him, opened the car door, and looked at him: "Let's go."
After not seeing her for many days, Ye Xiqing was still as composed and upright as ever, while Huo Yueze had lost his former high spirits. He stared intently at Ye Xiqing: "You knew all along that something would happen to the Huo family, didn't you?"
Ye Xiqing stopped in her tracks. This time, they didn't go to that familiar coffee shop. After all, the little villain might not have the money to pay for the coffee now, and she wasn't willing to pay for him.
Standing by the empty flower bed, Ye Xiqing smiled slightly: "Of course, I was the one who orchestrated all of this."
Huo Yueze's eyes widened, and he took a few steps forward, roaring, "Then why didn't you tell me! Is it fun to play me for a fool?!"
Ye Xiqing tilted her head, still smiling as always: "Of course I can't tell you. If I did, how would you give the most truthful answer?"
Huo Yueze was pinned to the spot.
"So you actually knew all along! My mother really did set a trap for me, watching me make the wrong choice!"
"But what's wrong with my choice! Anyone in my position could do better than me!"
Is it wrong for a person to think of themselves? When you didn't tell me the truth, was it wrong for me to choose the option that was most beneficial to myself and to us?
"What did I do wrong to deserve this punishment?!"
Huo Yueze was very emotional, which made him seem very reasonable. If Fu Yunzhen were standing here, she would probably be in tears.
But Ye Xiqing is not Fu Yunzhen; she cannot be moved by emotions, so she simply navigates the situation with ease.
"Why are you acting like you're so innocent? Isn't it me who's going to be 'sent to jail' by your father?"
"You're the one who helped him issue the notice. The only one who benefits is you, the future heir of the Huo family. What benefit would I, a crazy old woman who'd be sent to jail, possibly gain?"
"After I'm sent to prison and tortured by the Huo family's methods, I'll either go insane or die."
"You, the future head of the family, take my ashes out of prison and shed a few tears. Is that considered to be in my best interest?"
"If I hadn't fought back, this would have been the end for us."
"You're an accomplice, how dare you say it's in my best interest?"
Huo Yueze: ...
He thought that Ye Xiqing would feel guilty towards him for doing such a thing.
Unexpectedly, she remained like an emotionless monster, coldly analyzing the flaws in every word he said.
"But I clearly had other plans! And you refused me again and again!"
"Whether it's making me endure it or admitting that I'm a madman spreading rumors about that rapist, it's a stupid arrangement."
“You shouldn’t have said such foolish things after you saw the ending I had really arranged for him.”
"But that was the best arrangement I could think of at the time!"
"The solutions a person can think of are limited by his intelligence, but the choices he can make depend on his morality."
"You may not be able to think of a clever solution, but on the other side of the scale is the mother who has been hurt and will continue to be hurt, and this mother may even be sent to prison by the shameless father."
"Your morality should guide your choices. You should stand firmly on the side of justice, even if you lose everything, because this is the bottom line that a normal person with morality would have."
"But you didn't. You made excuses for yourself step by step and stood with evil."
“I don’t know how you could compromise so much. Even if you weren’t firmly on my side, just telling the truth that you are my son would have given you a new life.”
“You are the youngest Best Actor, and you have many fans who love you crazy. Even if you put aside your identity as a member of the Huo family, you have the power to fight back. You may even be forgiven by the Huo family because of your bloodline.”
"But you didn't. Even with such favorable conditions, you weren't willing to take a step for me. You only struggled for a moment before readily choosing to take sides."
"What is there for you to feel aggrieved about? If I hadn't retaliated against the Huo family, the Huo family would still be standing strong, and your life would be so much more comfortable."
"Right now, you've simply made the wrong bet. You have to accept the consequences of your gamble and pay the price for your choice."
Huo Yueze: ...
"Are you determined to belittle me to nothing...?"
"I'm not belittling you, I'm just stating the facts."
“Before you were born, I thought that if it was a girl, I would keep her as a continuation of my life.”
"If it's a boy, abort it as an end to the sin."
"Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. You were born, and today, I can finally prove it—"
“I was right. You are indeed the continuation of your father’s sins, the sinful genes that cannot produce normal children.”
Huo Yueze stood there stunned for a long time. After what seemed like an eternity, he finally came to his senses, as if waking from a nightmare, and stared straight at Ye Xiqing: "So you hate me! You hated me the moment I was born!"
His expression was on the verge of collapse. Ye Xiqing shouldn't have added fuel to the fire, but it was too difficult to prevent her from enjoying the fruits of her labor.
The most satisfying moment in the test of humanity is when everything settles down and you see those who made the wrong choice weeping bitterly.
So Ye Xiqing looked at the little villain with extreme pleasure: "Otherwise, why would I love a child born from my rape?"
Huo Yueze's tears flowed freely again, and he cried out hoarsely, "But what did I do wrong! I didn't want to be born either! You suffered the pain of being raped, but I—"
"Shh-"
Ye Xiqing covered her ears without hesitation.
Huo Yueze looked at his "mother," who remained calm and composed, her expression unchanged, tears streaming down her face. She interrupted his narration in a detached tone.
"That's why I hate you. Even though I suffered the most primal pain, everyone likes to summarize my grievances in one sentence, and then use a 'but' to turn up your innocence."
"But this sentence is very long, longer than my pain."
"It can be a long speech, a long story, or even two long stories."
"But no matter what, I won't be the protagonist of that story. The protagonist of the story is often you."
"You are so precious, so valuable. My pain is your medal, my blood and tears are your preface, but—"
"Who gave you permission to treat me as the prologue to a book, to turn the pages so gently?"
“I will not allow that to happen; I will only become a nightmare you can never overcome.”
"Because I haven't made any mistakes except for giving birth to you."
"Therefore I will not let you sum up my pain in a single sentence."
Huo Yueze: ...
His tears disappeared, and he began to laugh wildly.
He laughed until tears streamed down his face, and he roared maniacally at Ye Xiqing, "Then don't have the baby! I don't want to be your child either! I'd rather you had never given birth to me!"
Ye Xiqing was supposed to turn and leave after saying what she needed to say, but upon hearing this, she slowly stopped in her tracks.
Looking back at the frenzied Huo Yueze, Huo Yueze had thought he would finally see something different this time, but instead, he was only met with Ye Xiqing's gradually widening smile—
"Ah, I don't like most of what you say, but this one is different."
“We can’t reach a consensus on anything else, but on this one thing, we can reach an unprecedented level of agreement.”
“You told me in front of me that you didn’t want to live anymore.”
"Coincidentally, I also feel that your life has no meaning."
"So your suffering is only for this lifetime, and I will redeem you, as if you had never been born."
