Chapter 604: Is Spring Far Away?
Although Zhou Zihuai met a crazy mother and a constantly violent stepfather, he also met Song Fang, Wang Yu, the fat sports committee member, Fu Zhi... and a group of people.
Some people are in the gutter, trying their best to pull you down and assimilate you, but some people always stand in the corner of light, shining on you, with an open mind and fearlessness.
Zhao Wu read the apology document unwillingly.
All of them are insulting to him.
Fu Zhi took the phone back and wiped it with a tissue, "Remember today's lesson."
"From the moment you signed the document, the law has come into effect. Zhou Zihuai is no longer your son. There is no relationship between you. If you cause trouble for him again in the future, you will have to consider how the law will punish you!"
"You forced me to get this document..." Zhao Wu panted heavily, his body shaking on the bed from being hit by too many punches.
"Don't say such harsh words," Jiang Ningbei said with a smile, "What do you mean by forcing? We are just giving them back in their own way."
"You will be punished!"
"People like you haven't been struck by lightning, but for people like me and Zhizhi, even if the thunder comes, it will help us become immortals."
“…”
Zhao Wu was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, but he was powerless to do anything. He could only watch Fu Zhi and Jiang Ningbei push open the door and leave.
The lounge where the beast and he were imprisoned was filled with the roars of wolves and tigers, which was deafening after Fu Zhi left.
The man's body was covered with scars of varying sizes, suffering from pain he had never experienced in the first half of his life.
He had no regrets, only resentment and unwillingness.
Including that little bit of subtle panic.
He was very scared, afraid that Zhou Zihuai would no longer care about him and this family, and afraid that Zhou's mother would take Zhou Zihuai away.
No, it won’t…
Zhou Zihuai, this rebellious son, does not know how to be grateful, but his mother is different.
His wife loved him so much, and now that he had left her, how could he go on living?
He has to file a complaint!
He had to think of a solution. No, maybe he didn't need to think of a solution at all. This woman was pregnant with his child, how could his child be born without a father? !
Zhao Wu clenched his fists.
He must calm Zhou's mother down...
——
The other side.
As soon as Fu Zhi walked out the door, the person in charge came over with Boss Sun from the Colosseum.
Boss Sun is a man in his forties. He is the largest shareholder in this arena besides the Mu family.
When he saw Fu Zhi, his eyes narrowed quickly and he walked up quickly, "Li Zhi? Emperor Li! Hahahaha, nice to meet you!"
He was so enthusiastic that he seemed to want to grab Fu Zhi's hand and shake it.
Jiang Ningbei stood in front of Fu Zhi with an expressionless face.
The silver mask looked even colder and more ruthless under the light.
The smile on Boss Sun's face froze.
"Is there something you need?" Fu Zhi asked, looking anxious to leave.
Boss Sun got straight to the point and took out a contract from behind him. "Meeting is destiny. I am fortunate to have witnessed the grace of Emperor Li today. I wonder if I have the honor to sign a contract with you. You can spare two or three days every month to play in our Colosseum. The price is negotiable."
Just the two battles today allowed Boss Sun to see the strength of the girl in front of him, as well as the affection that Young Master Jiang had developed for her.
Unlike the other people who were sold into the Colosseum unwillingly.
That group of people were sent in because they needed money for various reasons, and they later signed a permanent indenture, which prohibited them from leaving the Colosseum.
As for Fu Zhi, she was just looking for temporary happiness and wanted to kill Zhao Wu.
She signed a temporary contract and waiver without any term limit.
Everyone thought she would die on stage.
Boss Sun really regretted not recruiting such a talent.
Fu Zhi glanced at Boss Sun, and after remembering his appearance, he said indifferently, "I'm not interested in money."
Jiang Ningbei: “…”
Can you tell me again in good conscience whether you are interested in money or not?
Fu Zhi really had no concern about this kind of dirty money.
She pulled Jiang Ningbei over and was about to leave.
"Wait! Emperor Li! Even if you are not interested in money, you are not interested in people, right?"
Boss Sun handed over a WeChat QR code. "This is Jiang Zong, the youngest son of the Jiang family in Beijing. How is Li Huang? He has a lot of ideas about you."
"Ugly refusal, no appointment."
Boss Sun: “…”
Jiang Zong is so handsome that even a man like him would be moved when he sees him. Are you kidding me? !
Staring at Fu Zhi's back, Boss Sun couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The person in charge behind him said worriedly, "Boss Sun, I don't think she is an ordinary person, but a powerful person. If we let her leave without clearing things up with her, will it have an adverse impact on our Colosseum?"
"No need to argue. What is the status of the Mu family and the Sun family in City A? If she wants to survive, she should know what to say and what not to say."
It’s just a pity that the little girl couldn’t listen to him and didn’t include Young Master Jiang.
It seems that he still needs to go out and find a group of strong and sturdy female bodyguards.
Otherwise, the contract will most likely not be concluded.
——
Fu Zhi dealt with the matter at the Colosseum and took Jiang Ningbei's car directly back to the hospital.
The ICU ward has been receiving special care, and Zhou Zihuai was once again pushed into the operating room due to gastric bleeding.
Ye Tian's apprentice was very tired when he came out of the operating room, but after seeing Fu Zhi, he immediately rushed over.
"Miss Fu, you're back just in time. We gave Zhou Zihuai the medicine you gave him, and he's getting much better, but he's still feeling bad... The anesthetic has worn off, and he's awake. His mother came once, but I took her away. Go see him when you have time and talk to him."
"What did his mother say to him? Do you know?"
Fu Zhi took the contract and cell phone and followed the doctor to the ICU ward.
Ye Tian's disciple led the way while explaining, "His mother seemed to blame him for being so depressed and letting her down for all the hard work she put in raising him over the years..."
What can Zhou's mother say?
Nothing but disappointment.
It would have been fine if her son had not done as well as others in the exam and his grades had dropped, but now he has committed suicide, and it has become such a big deal, with the whole city in an uproar, making her feel ashamed and exhausted.
What kind of future can a child who thinks about suicide anytime and anywhere have when he grows up?
Fu Zhi stopped in front of the ICU ward door, and Jiang Ningbei felt suffocated for a moment.
How desperate does a person have to be before he thinks of committing suicide?
But she is labeled as pretentious and ignorant by her most genuine mother. So did she treat this son as her own flesh and blood, or as a tool for her to exchange for a better future?
"Zhou Zihuai's injuries will take another half month to recover. During this time, you should keep him in the hospital. It's best not to let his mother in."
Fu Zhi instructed, and then said to Jiang Ningbei: "Send me the video and photos. If you have anything else to do, leave first. If you have nothing else, wait for me outside."
What could possibly happen to Jiang Ningbei? The serious crime squad has been turned upside down by Fu Zhi, and everyone is on alert. He is about to face losing his job, okay?
"Come in, I'll wait for you outside."
Because he had been to the Colosseum, where there was a lot of moisture and germs, Fu Zhi disinfected himself outside, then walked lightly into the ward.
Zhou Zihuai was lying on the hospital bed with many tubes inserted into his body. He was still breathing oxygen. Because the blow was too severe, his wounds had not yet scabbed and healed, and he looked rather miserable.
When he saw Fu Zhi coming in from outside, a hint of surprise flashed across the boy's eyes, followed by embarrassment and regret.
I didn't feel that bad when I was desperate to die, but when I was rescued afterwards, I thought about the text messages he sent to Fu Zhi, including Fu Zhi's desire to save him, his resistance and the way he jumped down at the last minute...
Even now, the idea of leaving this world has not changed, but the shame in my heart...
No matter how hard I try, I can't erase it.
Zhou Zihuai didn't know how to face Fu Zhi.
Fu Zhi bent down and checked the surrounding instruments. He looked at his body data and found that they were all normal. He breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the chair. "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Her tone was soft and gentle, and there was even a hint of loving kindness in her eyes, like an elder looking at a younger person.
This kind of look made Zhou Zihuai, who was lying on the hospital bed, feel a little uneasy.
I don’t know why, but for a moment Zhou Zihuai felt that Fu Zhi was his mother.
Zhou Zihuai: “…”
Zhou Zihuai thought about this and almost slapped himself in the face.
He is really crazy!
He actually wanted Fu Zhi to get pregnant and give birth to him before marriage!
"Hmm? You don't feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"...No, everything is fine."
Zhou Zihuai looked down at the white bed sheets, not daring to meet Fu Zhi's gaze.
Fu Zhi didn't understand what he was thinking.
In fact, as long as the emotion is not very obvious, Fu Zhishang can't detect it.
So he handed the document in his hand to the boy and said, "This is a document to sever the father-son relationship. It is legally effective."
The A4 paper was stapled and neatly placed on the bedding in front of the boy.
Zhou Zihuai's body trembled, almost in disbelief, and he lowered his head somewhat mechanically, looking at the paper in front of him.
In black and white.
He recognized every word, but when they were put together, he felt shocked as if in a dream!
Fu Zhi knew that he was not feeling well, so after he quickly read one page, Fu Zhi turned the page for him and saw the two words "Zhao Wu" on the second page.
"How could he possibly..."
After a long silence, the boy raised his head, his eyes confused and helpless, "He signed it, why did he sign it?"
He knew his stepfather well and tried to squeeze out the little value left in him.
How could he sign such a document so easily? This is not his style at all!
Fu Zhi knew he would ask, so he took out his mobile phone again and sent him the video and related photos.
"I used some tricks." This is what Fu Zhi said.
She spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if it was just a trivial matter.
However, all the recordings and videos sent by Jiang Ningbei showed the dangers she had experienced.
She fought with wild beasts, argued with her stepfather, and fought in the ring...
Zhou Zihuai's eyes reddened.
I can't contain the sadness in my heart.
He didn't know whether to feel sad or relieved.
After he woke up, the first people to care about him were not his parents, but the doctor, Fu Zhi, Song Fang, Xiao Ma, and Director Liu who rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night after receiving the news.
His mother blamed him for not being strong enough, and that his stepfather did all kinds of despicable things continuously, but as a mother she always forgave this man.
Zhou Zihuai is not unenvious...
He even resented Zhao Wu for taking away his once gentle mother.
The doctor told him that his symptoms were caused by a long-term lack of security and tremendous mental pressure from his studies and family, which led to his mental confusion and extreme behavior.
The doctor also said that there are many children like him now, and society should pay extensive attention to students' mental state and physical health instead of blindly pursuing students' academic performance.
"You..." Zhou Zihuai's voice was particularly hoarse, "You shouldn't have taken such a big risk for me and done so many things. I didn't help you with anything, but you..."
"At the English speech contest, you handed me a set of materials related to the speech. When we were short of manpower for the international physics competition, you flew over to form a team with me."
After Fu Zhi finished speaking about these two points, he said, "It is a very simple matter to make Zhao Wu give in. He is a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. If you are going to give up your life just because of such a scumbag, then your life is really too cheap."
Zhou Zihuai clenched his fists.
His gaze shifted from Fu Zhi to the video that was still playing.
He seemed to understand something.
No one is born strong.
No one is destined to have smooth sailing.
But your own destiny must be in your own hands.
Domestic violence is not his fault, and not being understood is not his fault, but being cowardly and self-contained, making people who really care about him take risks for him, and even risking what he thinks is his life to persuade him to be optimistic, then this must be his problem!
Fu Zhi saw his eyes flickering, and finally said, "The college entrance examination is coming soon. Only when you climb high can you see the people you hate, fear you, but have to beg you to depend on you. But these are things that the dead cannot get."
The string in Zhou Zihuai's mind broke.
He gritted his teeth.
Yes, Fu Zhi is right.
When a person dies, there is really nothing left...
He shouldn't be so narrow-minded... thinking that everything would be fine if he died.
If Fu Zhi could fight Zhao Wu to this extent, what can't a real man do after winning the victory? !
Zhou Zihuai, who understood this, felt that something in his chest wanted to overflow, hot and scalding. Under Fu Zhi's gaze, he finally couldn't help it, clenched his fists, and said, "I understand, Fu Zhi!"
He shouted a loud slogan, "Winter is here, can spring be far behind?! Is that what you mean?"
Fu Zhi: “…”
