It was already the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month when Qin Lingxiao returned to the Corps.
When Si Yang saw him on the road, he found that he was in a very bad mental state, with sunken eye sockets, dull eyes, and even stubble on his chin.
It was obvious that Qin Zhenzhen's incident had dealt a heavy blow to him both physically and mentally.
"Have you met her?" Si Yang stopped when the two passed by each other.
"I've seen it." Qin Lingxiao's tone was dead.
"Zhao Hehua is here too, right?" Si Yang asked knowingly.
Qin Lingxiao lowered his voice even more, "Yes."
"What did you talk about with the mother and daughter? Are they still talking about me?" Si Yang suddenly took a step back and looked at him curiously.
A trace of bitterness flashed across Qin Lingxiao's face, but he quickly returned to his gloomy state.
His memory went back to two days ago——
After the news of Qin Zhenzhen's treason spread to the army, her previous affairs with Qiao Zhenggang in the Corps were also discovered.
Qin Lingxiao was suspected of sheltering his family members, so the political commissar demoted him and transferred him from the Corps to the border defense force.
The current situation on Crescent Island is unclear, and we need people to hold the defense line.
Before returning, he went to see Qin Zhenzhen and met Zhao Hehua for the second time.
As soon as Qin Zhenzhen saw him, she confessed everything she had done over the years in order to survive.
When she was only twelve years old, Zhao Hehua found her and told her that she was not the Qin family's biological daughter at all.
If she wants to continue staying in the Qin family, she must send money to Zhao Hehua every month, otherwise Zhao Hehua will come to the house and tell the Qin family the truth.
So in order to live a comfortable life, Qin Zhenzhen began to frequently ask the Qin couple for money, and she even borrowed money from Qiao Zhenggang.
Sometimes, when money was not enough, she would secretly sell some old things at home. When she found out that something was missing, she would imply that it was the cook who stole it.
The Qin family changed several aunts in just two years.
Later, Aunt Zhang worked the longest because after Qin Siyang was taken back, there was a new scapegoat in the family.
"Brother, I know I did a lot of wrong things, but I was really forced by that bad woman, and I didn't want to leave Mom and Dad. I was afraid that you would not want me after my sister came back, so I did those wrong things."
Qin Zhenzhen looked at Qin Lingxiao helplessly with pleading eyes, and reached out to pull his arm, but he avoided her.
Qin Zhenzhen's bad behavior has made him feel hopeless.
"Since you admit that you made a mistake, then accept the punishment." Qin Lingxiao said coldly, turned around and went next door to find Zhao Hehua.
Behind him was Qin Zhenzhen's heart-wrenching cry for help, but Qin Lingxiao didn't even turn his head.
Putting aside the trouble she had caused this time, he couldn't save her. Even if he could, he wouldn't care about her anymore.
Over the years, Zhao Hehua has been relying on Qin Zhenzhen, the daughter raised in the Qin family, sucking the blood of the Qin family and living a prosperous life.
What made Qin Lingxiao devastated the most was that Zhao Hehua initially said that she had accidentally taken the wrong two children from the hospital, but in fact she had lied.
She had planned this from the beginning.
Before Zhao Hehua's husband went to jail, he was the deputy director of a steelmaking plant. Shortly after Qin Qiheng took over as secretary in Beijing, he launched a surprise inspection of their factory.
As a result, the deputy factory director embezzled and accepted bribes, and abused his power to resell public steel for his own benefit.
The man was sentenced to life imprisonment, and the pregnant Zhao Hehua hated the Qin family.
After finding out that Chen Lan was also pregnant at the same time as her, she deliberately chose to give birth in the same ward with her.
Chen Lan's pregnancy started first, and Zhao Hehua fell right after that. Three hours apart, they each gave birth to a daughter.
Zhao Hehua's original plan was to kill the Qin family's children, but since both of them were maids, a new way of revenge came to her mind.
