Chapter 525 Sorrow
He's mother sat on the ground, throwing a tantrum without caring about her image. She kicked her legs wildly, slapped the ground with her hands and cried, "You gave me a good daughter and lost her just like that. Where is justice?"
"It's not easy for me to raise a daughter, but she is so outstanding!"
"That's right. The teachers all said that she would be able to get into a good school in the future, a top 985 university, and have a bright future! It's you who killed my daughter."
He's father grabbed the person in charge by the collar and roared madly.
The two cried loudly, but there was not a single tear in their eyes.
Shen Wan looked at He Hong.
He Hong was trying to remain calm at first, but she was stunned when she saw her parents throwing a tantrum. The expression on her face disappeared instantly, turning into endless disappointment and sadness.
Her eyes quickly filled with tears and bean-sized tears rolled down her cheeks.
One by one, they fell heavily to the ground.
Others could not see the girl's tears. The entire corridor was filled with the unreasonable roars of He's father and mother.
Just as Shen Wan was about to say something, he saw He Hong's soul fade away and disappear.
"He Hong!" Her heart tightened and she quickly turned around to look for He Hong.
Xiao Ling couldn't bear to see what He's father and mother did, so she rushed forward and pulled He's father away.
He's father stumbled and almost fell, and cursed: "Fuck you——"
He swallowed back his curse words only after he saw clearly that Xiao Ling was wearing a police uniform.
"What are you making a fuss about! This is a school, not a vegetable market!"
Xiao Ling said angrily: "I can understand your pain of losing your daughter, but is it appropriate for you to rush to ask for money before the matter has been investigated thoroughly?"
The school director also said helplessly: "Student He Hong's accident happened in school. Our school is indeed responsible. We didn't say that we won't compensate you. We just need to discuss it carefully. You come here and ask for money. How can I give it to you?"
He's father said confidently: "Don't even think about settling the matter peacefully without three million!"
"Yes, three million is not enough." He's mother got up from the ground and said ferociously.
The school director could only appease the two people first, "The school will have to hold a meeting to discuss the amount of compensation. It's useless for you to continue making trouble like this."
He's father and mother looked at each other, and seeing that their goal had been achieved, they made a harsh remark, saying that if they didn't get compensation within a day, the school would be closed.
When the two of them went downstairs, Xiao Ling clearly heard them laughing.
"I didn't expect that bringing this money-losing item to the city would actually bring good fortune to our family."
"Yes, if we get three million in compensation, we can buy that school district house for our son, and we won't have to work so hard in the future."
"We have to hurry to the real estate agent and pay the deposit first, so that the good house won't be snatched away by others!"
"Hahaha, that's what my wife said. Let's go and look at the house."
Xiao Ling listened to the two people's calculations without paying attention to others, and stamped her feet in anger, "How can there be such cold-blooded and heartless parents? I think they should be the ones to die!"
As soon as the words came out, she felt something was wrong, so she quickly shut her mouth and went to find Shen Wan.
Chen Wan searched everywhere before finding He Hong in a dark and cramped corner behind the dormitory building.
She huddled into a small ball, hugging herself tightly with her thin arms. Her frail body was shaking badly, as if she was trying desperately to suppress her grief.
Shen Wan felt a pain in his heart, and he quickly stepped forward and gently embraced He Hong in his arms, saying softly: "If you want to cry, just cry out loud, it's okay."
He Hong's body froze and tears instantly burst out of her eyes.
Even if she cried, she just sobbed quietly and didn't dare to cry loudly.
Shen Wan patted her back gently, and spiritual power overflowed from his fingertips, infusing it into He Hong's cold soul.
He Hong felt a trace of warmth flowing through her. She was stunned for a moment and then burst into tears.
She cried for a long time, as if venting all the grievances and unwillingness that had been suppressed in her heart for more than ten years.
When Xiao Ling came over, she only saw Chen Wan squatting in the corner, seemingly hugging an invisible person.
She took out cow's tears and sprayed them on her eyes, and He Hong's translucent soul in front of her gradually became clear.
“It’s He Hong…!”
Xiao Ling was surprised and happy, but was soon infected by her emotions and her eyes turned red.
"Beautiful sister, I'm sorry, I think I got your clothes dirty."
He Hong looked up and found that her tears had stained Chen Wan's clothes black like dirty water.
She immediately tried to wipe it clean carefully.
Shen Wan felt even more distressed when he saw his cautious look.
"It's okay, it's just a little bit of negative energy." Shen Wan patted his shoulder lightly with his fingers, and the black traces of tears dissipated like smoke.
He Hong sobbed and said, "I'm not afraid of death, I just can't leave my family behind..."
Xiao Ling was a little surprised: "Your parents are so biased towards boys, why are you still worried about them? You just saw it, they just want to use your life to exchange for money..."
The truth may be hard to hear, but it is the fact.
He Hong shook her head and said, "I am worried about my grandmother in the countryside. I am worried about her."
"My grandma is so old, it's not easy for her to live alone in the countryside..."
"I want to study hard and get into a good university, so that I can have a good job in the future. I want to bring my grandma to the city to live a better life, but..."
He Hong choked up again as she spoke, "Sister, I don't know what happened to me. As soon as I opened my eyes, I died..."
"I'm so scared. How could I become like this..."
He Hong burst into tears.
Xiao Ling was stunned.
She thought He Hong couldn't let go of her heartless parents, but she didn't expect that she was worried about her grandmother in the city.
This child actually knows clearly who is truly good to her and who is just being insincere.
"I know that my parents don't like me. They only have my brother in their hearts... It doesn't matter. At least I still have my grandma. When they gave birth to me and wanted to abandon me, it was my grandma who picked me up and raised me. My grandma is my relative..."
"I promised grandma at the weekend that I would go back to the countryside to stay with her for a while after the final exams... Grandma can no longer wait for me to come home... wuwuwuwu..."
He Hong became sadder and sadder as she spoke, and she hugged Chen Wan and burst into tears again.
Xiao Ling's eyes were filled with tears until a phone call came in.
It was a colleague who called and said that He Hong’s grandmother had come to the school and was kneeling at the school gate.
He Hong was shocked when she heard this, "Why is grandma here so soon?"
Xiao Ling asked and found out: "He Hong, were you feeling unwell before returning to school yesterday?"
He Hong nodded: "I do have a little stomachache."
"Before you went back to school, you called your grandmother. She could tell something was wrong with your voice and thought you might have been treated unfairly by your parents. So she carried a basket of eggs, some vegetables, and an old hen she raised and walked for several hours along the mountain road, intending to come to the city to see you and nourish your body...
Maybe she just arrived at your parents’ house and learned the sad news of your murder…”
