"I'm... sorry." Chen Lan uttered a few words weakly from his hoarse throat.
"Qin Zhenzhen was shot today. Do you want to collect the body?" Qin Shiyan ignored her apology and talked about Qin Zhenzhen without any hesitation.
When Chen Lan heard the name Qin Zhenzhen, she unconsciously clenched the bed sheet with both hands. Her bandaged fingers began to bleed again, but she didn't feel any pain.
Qin Zhenzhen's crazy and ferocious face made Chen Lan feel cold in her heart.
"That beast...has nothing to do with our family...We don't want his body."
Qin Shiyan felt calm after hearing this. It was great that Chen Lan finally saw through Qin Zhenzhen's character. Unfortunately, the price was too high.
"Dad will be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life and there's no chance he'll ever be able to stand up again." Qin Shiyan said this with a hint of annoyance in his calm tone.
Chen Lan's breath was choked, and her chest felt like it was stabbed. "It's my fault, I... I shouldn't have... I hurt... him..."
She cried so hard that she couldn't breathe. There was clearly a chance, a chance to avoid the tragedy, but she was stupid and missed the chance to save herself.
Qin Qiheng's body should have been able to stand up again in half a year. How stupid of her to bring that beast back and still think of saving her!
The more Chen Lan thought about it, the more suffocated she felt. All these years of hard work were met with a ruthless backstab.
Chen Lan thought of what Qin Zhenzhen had said. She said that her gentleness and obedience in the Qin family were all fake.
It turns out that she was the born bad seed! How hateful that she mistook a fish eye for a pearl, repeatedly favoring and protecting it, but in the end, she was tortured and killed.
"...This is...retribution..." Chen Lan muttered repeatedly, with a hint of self-mockery in his empty and desperate eyes.
She suddenly thought of Qin Siyang, the stubborn and strong-willed daughter who had appeared when she first entered the house.
Qin Siyang's personality is very similar to Chen Lan's. He disdains intrigue and is straightforward and would rather break than bend.
But why did she dislike her at that time? She was obviously the daughter she had carried for ten months and given birth to!
Chen Lan began to recall in a self-torturing manner the sad things that happened after Qin Siyang was taken home.
On the first day back home, she felt distressed when Qin Siyang saw the bruises on her back and the scars on her arms and thighs while she was taking a shower.
But Zhao Hehua said that Qin Siyang was beaten by her because he was a naughty boy at a young age and hung out with a group of street urchins.
Zhao Hehua said that she had bad behavior, was shameless and refused to change despite repeated warnings. If she hadn't been disciplining her, Qin Siyang would have slept with those street urchins long ago.
So since Qin Siyang came into the family, Chen Lan disliked this daughter with a "bad record".
In addition, she had a stubborn temper and a wild personality. She did not have the slightest bit of a girl's reserve and elegance. Instead, she was full of the vulgarity and vulgarity brought back from the market.
Compared with Qin Zhenzhen, they are simply two different types.
So every time Qin Zhenzhen and Qin Siyang had a conflict, Chen Lan would directly side with Qin Zhenzhen.
Although Si Yang later gave her a piece of evidence, evidence proving that Qin Si Yang was wrongly accused, she turned a blind eye to it.
Even if Qin Zhenzhen really made a mistake, it was because she was afraid of losing her family and her hard-earned happiness.
But what about Qin Siyang? He was so scheming and deliberately trying to gather evidence. Wasn't it just to drive Qin Zhenzhen away so she could take her place?
The more Chen Lan thought about it, the more she hated Qin Siyang, and her heart drifted further and further away from him, until she could no longer tell right from wrong.
Now she finally got her retribution. It turned out that Qin Zhenzhen was the evil ghost with a false heart.
Her own daughter returned home full of hope, but was rejected by her because she was too straightforward and frank.
Now she has cut off her daughter's way home with her own hands.
Chen Lan sobbed silently, deep regret stuck in her throat, difficult to vent.
Is she wrong?
