Chapter 107: Finding the Fruit of Time
Ye Jing followed her homeroom teacher to the office at the end of the corridor. It was the senior year's class time. Along the way, she heard many familiar teachers' voices.
The two of them soon arrived at the office door. The head teacher pushed the door open and walked straight to her desk. Ye Jing followed her in and found a familiar figure sitting on the sofa in the office, with two people who looked like bodyguards standing beside him.
Ye Jing paused and stared at Ye Shimian blankly. Although she didn't know what he had done, she found that the uneasy feeling she had felt before almost instantly came back to her heart.
Seeing the two people coming in, Ye Shimian immediately stood up. He looked Ye Jing up and down with a gloomy face, and then forced a smile to look at Wei Hong. Seeing that she looked unhappy, he thought for a moment and understood. Smiling, he took out a bank card from his arms and put it on the coffee table, then slowly pushed it towards Wei Hong: "There is 200,000 in this card. It is my heartfelt gift to thank Teacher Wei for his guidance to Ye Jing over the past three years. I hope you will not despise it and accept this small gift."
Wei Hong's eyes flashed when he heard that, but his expression remained calm. However, he glanced at the bank card inconspicuously.
Although she was criticized by her leader today for not managing students rigorously, and could forget about her bonus, and even her final grade might be affected, she certainly didn't want to give Ye Jing and her father a good face.
But now it's different. Although the bonus is gone, here are another 200,000 yuan. As for the final evaluation, Wei Hong is not going to change jobs anyway. At most, she will be the head teacher of a worse class next semester.
Thinking of this, Wei Hong's mood immediately changed from gloomy to bright and she was overjoyed.
She raised her eyebrows, reached out to take the bank card from the coffee table, and said with a smile: "Dad Ye, you are too polite. I brought up Ye Jing, and she is the most outstanding benchmark student in our school--"
At this point, she was suddenly stuck. It was true that Ye Jing was very outstanding, but that was before what happened today. If she said that now, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the school?
Ye Shimian saw Wei Hong's embarrassed face, with a gleam in her eyes, but she replied nonchalantly: "I'm really sorry to bother Teacher Wei today. If there's nothing else, I'll take her back now..."
Wei Hong was about to nod in agreement when Ye Jing, who was standing beside her, came back to her senses. She looked at Ye Shimian with a bad face and asked, "What are you doing here?"
After asking, she recalled their previous conversation. She looked at Wei Hong in confusion, then at Ye Shimian, and continued to ask, "What did you mean by that? Go back? Where to?"
Ye Shimian glared at her fiercely and scolded her loudly: "Why are you butting in when the adults are talking! Just listen carefully!"
This is a school, there are so many people here, Ning Yi is not far away, Ye Jing is not afraid of him, so she just snorted coldly and smiled: "What you are talking about is my business, I will never leave here without explaining it clearly, you can choose."
"You - Ye Jing, don't forget, I'm your father!" Ye Shimian was so angry that he suddenly pointed his index finger at Ye Jing and ordered the two people beside him, "You two, take the young lady back!"
"You are not my father, you are just my stepfather. No, you are not even my stepfather. I told you before the New Year that we will no longer have any relationship from now on." Ye Jing looked directly at Ye Shimian and said word by word.
At this moment, the two men had already walked up to her, and were about to grab her arms. Ye Jing dodged and glared at them with her phone raised, saying, "Don't touch me, or I'll call the police and report that someone is fighting and robbing students in school."
The two men paused, looked at each other, and turned to look at Ye Shimian. Ye Shimian took a deep breath and waved his hand to let the two men come back.
After a long while, he shook his head and sighed. He looked at Ye Jing helplessly and said earnestly, "Jing'er, how can you sever the father-daughter relationship of more than ten years with me for a man? You have been away from home for two months. Is this how you treat me in such a cold way because of my worry about you that I couldn't eat or sleep? What's so good about Ning Yi? You are willing to abandon your parents to be with him, and even live with him. You are still a minor——"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Jing interrupted him with a mixture of anxiety and anger. She was shaking uncontrollably with anger. She gritted her teeth and said coldly, "Ye Shimian! If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for tearing off your ugly face. At worst, we can fight to the death and see who is more embarrassed!"
Wei Hong, who was standing by, heard these harsh words and looked at Ye Jing with complicated eyes.
In her impression, this girl always spoke softly, was obedient and amiable, and was gentle and polite in dealing with people. In previous parent-teacher meetings, she saw her talking and laughing with her father, looking like a loving father and a filial daughter. This was completely different from her current angry appearance.
It seems like this is another child who is in love and crazy about love.
It's all my fault. If I hadn't given her the opportunity to be with that bastard Ning Yi, she wouldn't have been corrupted by that bad student. If I hadn't turned a blind eye to their relationship, she wouldn't have fallen deeper and deeper into trouble, even to the point of talking back to her parents and running away from home.
Wei Hong secretly regretted in her heart. After all, Ye Jing was her favorite student and Ye Shimian had just given her a considerable amount of money. When she was hesitating whether to help take care of the situation, she looked up and saw Ye Shimian sitting stiffly on the sofa with an expression of disbelief on his face.
She was startled, thinking that Ye Shimian was deeply hurt by Ye Jing's words and could not bear the stimulation, and she did not notice the sinisterness and anger surging in his eyes.
She no longer hesitated. Wei Hong looked at Ye Jing coldly and said seriously, "Ye Jing, how can you talk to your father like this? No matter what he did, he cared about you. You are so disappointing! Your father is right. Your current task is to study. It is wrong to fall in love early, not to mention that you are living together. I originally thought you were very smart and should know your limits in this matter. Now it seems that I overestimated you. For a bad student who has no knowledge, you actually ran away from home and threatened your father. I am really disappointed in you!"
Listening to Wei Hong scolding Ye Jing, Ye Shimian's mouth curled up silently, and soon returned to normal. However, Ye Jing saw this scene. She ignored Wei Hong's scolding, just looked at Ye Shimian's every move with disdain and sneered.
Seeing that Ye Jing turned a deaf ear to her words, Wei Hong was even more convinced that she was blinded by love. She suppressed her anger and turned to look at the grief-stricken Ye Shimian, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "Dad Ye, don't be too angry. Children in adolescence are a little rebellious. You just need to go back and discipline them properly."
Ye Shimian sighed and shook his head helplessly, acting the role of a sad father to the fullest: "Ah, it's also my fault for not disciplining her. I'm ashamed to say that I'm her stepfather, and I usually let her do whatever she wants. I was afraid of being criticized, so I didn't dare to say anything or hit her. After all, she's not my own child, and if I hit or scold her, others would think I was mistreating her. Who knew I'd spoil her so much that she even dared to hit and scold her own mother."
"What?!" Wei Hong exclaimed in a low voice, "Dad Ye, are you telling the truth?"
Ye Shimian nodded affirmatively and smiled bitterly, "Not long after New Year's Day last year, she went home, packed her things and was about to run away from home. Her mother tried to stop her, but was hit on the head and bleeding. She is still lying in bed recuperating. In the past two months, I have also called her many times, wanting her to come back to see her mother, but... every time I called a number, it was blocked, and I..."
At the end, Ye Shimian's voice began to choke up. Wei Hong's heart softened and she couldn't help but comfort him, "I understand. I understand your feelings. I never thought she was such a hypocritical person. She looks obedient and gentle, but in fact she is cruel and ruthless. She can even kill her own mother!"
Ye Jing stood aside and watched the two of them singing in unison, without changing her expression or saying a word the whole time.
Having been the class monitor for three years, she knew Wei Hong very well. She liked students who were well-behaved, had excellent grades and could bring her benefits. But she also had a weakness, which was that she was not immune to people who were good-looking and gentle.
This is also the reason why Wei Hong still likes some students in the class very much even though they have poor academic performance.
As for why Ning Yi was not liked by her even though he was so handsome, it was because Ning Yi gave her the impression of being a completely bad student. No matter how handsome he was, it was useless because he was very prone to causing trouble.
"No, it's not like that. My Jing'er is a good child. She was just corrupted by that boy named Ning Yi. Really!" Ye Shimian shook his head vigorously in disbelief. However, there was a hint of uncertainty in his tone. He seemed to be hypnotizing himself as if he didn't know. "Yes, it's not like that..."
Wei Hong looked at him distressedly, her calm heart rippled. She said loudly, "Dad Ye, stop deceiving yourself. I can see the truth, don't you believe it? Ye Jing is a complete ungrateful person who doesn't know what's good for her and has let you down!"
Hearing this, the smile hidden in Ye Shimian's eyes became even more intense, but his expression became even sadder. He pursed his lips tightly, his shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably, and tears rolled down his half-closed eyes, dripping down his handsome face.
He seemed to be overwhelmed with grief, and closed his eyes. After a long time, he finally spoke with trembling lips: "Yes, I can't deceive myself anymore. She is such a bad child who can even hurt her own mother in order to live with someone else. How long can I help her cover up? In front of the teacher, she dared to threaten me loudly just now. I can't hide it. Anyway, you know it, Teacher Wei, so I might as well tell you everything. In order to be with Ning Yi, she said more than once that she would sue me for domestic violence and want to rape her. I can only swallow my anger. Who made me marry her mother and become her stepfather?"
His voice was hoarse and full of hushed tones, and his expression was sad: "I... must be responsible for her."
Wei Hong was startled when she heard this. She looked up and saw Ye Jing's cold face. Her eyes were so cold and ruthless. She turned her head to look at Ye Shimian, and saw that he was full of self-mockery. Her heart suddenly trembled, and she said with concern: "I know your difficulties. Take her back and discipline her. As for Ning Yi, I will do my best to help you keep an eye on him. If...if you need anything in the future, you can come to me. No matter who wants to slander you, I can help you testify."
After saying that, she glared at Ye Jing as a warning.
Now in her heart, Ye Jing and Ning Yi are birds of a feather, and Ye Jing is an ungrateful and ungrateful person. Ye Shimen gave her an easy and comfortable life, with all the food, clothing and daily necessities provided for her, and even showed great care for her. However, she insisted on having her own way and, for the so-called love, maliciously slandered Ye Shimen and damaged his reputation. This is simply unforgivable!
A sly smile flashed across Ye Shimian's eyes, and he immediately stood up, took Wei Hong's hand with gratitude and thanked her again and again.
Wei Hong was startled at first, then her face turned red and she murmured, "You're welcome" and "It's my duty."
Ye Jing stood aside with her hands behind her back, watching Ye Shimian's excellent performance. He was indeed the most charming male entrepreneur known far and wide. With his good looks and superior acting skills, if she had not experienced those scenes personally, she would have almost thought that she was so unforgivable and that Ye Shimian was so kind and generous.
How ironic! A beast is no longer a beast when it puts on human skin, but a real person becomes a beast that everyone avoids after his human skin is stolen.
After the two men finished their chatter, Ye Shimian secretly winked at the two bodyguards beside him. The two men took two steps forward and raised their hands to hit Ye Jing on the back of the neck. Just when the knife was still a few centimeters away from her neck, Xie Fei pushed the door open breathlessly, leaped up, and kicked the two men twice.
The two men screamed and fell to the ground. They were gangsters who had worked their way up the gang, so they were naturally embarrassed to be kicked over. They turned around and glared at the man fiercely, then slowly got up from the ground.
The sudden change in the room scared Wei Hong and Ye Shimian. After seeing who it was, Ye Shimian's eyes lit up and his gaze shot at him like a knife or a sword, but the corners of his mouth slowly curled up into a strange and satisfied smile.
Ning Yi!
You came at the right time, I've been waiting for you. Today, Ye Shimian has specially brought two powerful bodyguards with him. I guarantee that they will beat him so badly that his mother won't recognize him!
As for the two bodyguards who were kicked to the ground just now, he didn't think that Ning Yi was too powerful at all. He just took it for granted that it was Ning Yi's sneak attack. After all, he was just a teenager and was not at the same level as these two gang leaders who had experienced group fights.
Ye Shimian smiled silently, and the next moment he was about to signal the two bodyguards to go up and beat him up, but Wei Hong spoke first: "Ning Yi, what are you doing?!"
Xie Fei glanced at Wei Hong indifferently. There was obviously nothing special about it, but she felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet, crawling up her scalp little by little, and freezing her whole body with a biting cold.
Her throat stiffened and she subconsciously dodged and avoided the sight.
Xie Fei turned to look at Ye Shimian who was standing beside her. While their gazes were locked in a fierce struggle in the air, he walked to Ye Jing and protected her behind him.
The room was filled with silence. Everyone stood still and dared not move, watching the two of them looking back and forth. It was like a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder, but it made people hold their breath.
The two of them refused to give in. After an unknown amount of time, Ye Shimian was the first to laugh: "I won't play with you today, but today I have specially invited someone to play with you. What do you think? Do you dare to play?"
Before Xie Fei could answer, he waved to the two people beside him and said with a confident smile: "Go ahead."
Xie Fei flexed his wrists as he watched the two men rushing up at him. At the moment when their fists swung in front of him like a gust of wind, he leaned back slightly, opened his palms on both sides of his body, and directly covered their returning fists, pulling them towards him and then pushing them to the opposite side. Before the two men could react at all, the strength around them had been dissipated. They leaned back by inertia, and their feet quickly took a few steps back. After two "bangs", they fell to the ground again.
The two men's faces were wrinkled into knots, they gritted their teeth and screamed in pain, their whole bodies twisted on the ground like earthworms, their bones seemed to be shattered, there was a faint tingling pain in their necks, and their chests gradually began to burn with pain. Every breath of cold air pulled their chests as if they were torn apart and it was unbearable.
Ye Shimian, who was originally full of confidence, turned pale in an instant. He could never have imagined that the two tall and strong men would be easily knocked to the ground in less than one round and fell so badly that they couldn't even get up!
He suppressed the fear in his heart, looked at the two people crying out in pain on the ground with an angry face, and said sternly: "Aren't you very powerful? Why don't you get up quickly! Get up!"
The two men opened their mouths but couldn't utter a word. Ye Shimian was so angry that he kicked them: "Your muscles are wasted, you two are such losers!"
At this moment, Ye Shimian, who was kicking the man, felt a cold gaze sweeping over his whole body. He froze and slowly looked up, only to see Xie Fei walking towards him slowly with his fists clenched.
One step, two steps, three steps.
Getting closer.
Ye Shimian's heart suddenly turned cold. Even in the middle of winter, he was frightened and broke out in cold sweat on his back. His clothes were soaked in a few seconds.
It was not until this moment that he began to be afraid. He realized that Ning Yi's fighting skills were by no means as simple as he saw. He also realized that all the revenges he had imagined while lying on the hospital bed in the past two months were a joke. His courage was wiped out in an instant, and his confidence collapsed in an instant.
His breathing became heavier, his chest began to rise and fall violently unconsciously, and he stepped back unconsciously. He wiped the sweat that kept sliding down his forehead with his hand, and threatened with trembling lips: "What are you going to do? This is a school. We won't tolerate you..."
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you here." Xie Fei smiled at him reassuringly.
Ye Shimian's nerves immediately tensed up when he heard this. How could he not hear the subtext of this sentence? Didn't it mean that he would find a deserted place and kill him?
His face was as pale as a human being. He opened his mouth to speak, but Xie Fei raised his chin towards his crotch and asked nonchalantly, "I just want to ask you, if the injury last time was not serious enough, let me kick you again this time."
He dares to say that!
Ye Shimian's face suddenly turned gloomy. It was because of him that his vitals were damaged. Although the injury was not severe, it was painful for him to urinate.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Xie Fei smiled even more brightly, but the words that came out of his mouth were sharp and pressing: "Oh, it seems that it is not good, then how dare you provoke me again?"
"I... I, I didn't provoke you." Ye Shimian was forced into a corner. He tried hard to suppress his panic and looked directly at Xie Fei and said, "I just came to take my daughter home. You broke in by yourself! And you secretly tricked my daughter into living with you without permission. She is not even 18 years old yet. Be careful, I will call the police and report you for abducting a minor!"
Ye Jing sneered and said, "He didn't seduce me. I was the one who relied on him. Besides, we are a couple. It's useless for you to sue me!"
"You!" Ye Shimian glared at Ye Jing unwillingly, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Xie Fei took two steps towards Ye Shimian, and slapped him on the face with his bony hands. He lowered his head slightly and whispered in Ye Shimian's ear, word by word, "Threatening me with calling the police? It seems that you want to spend the rest of your life in prison. Don't forget that the album that can serve as the most evidence is still in my hands. I'm not afraid of you calling the police."
"What? It's in your hands?" Ye Shimian was startled. During the Chinese New Year, the company had a lot of things to do, and he was upset by Ye Jing and Ning Yi. Later, he was beaten and stayed in the hospital for more than a month. He didn't even know that the photo album was taken away by Ye Jing. When he heard about this suddenly, he didn't want to believe it. "Impossible, you are lying to me, right?"
"Whatever you think, this is my last warning to you. Don't mess with me." Xie Fei glanced at him and said calmly, "I'll give you three days. From now on, I don't want to see you in this place. You can get out as far as you can. Otherwise, I don't mind helping you disappear from this world."
After thinking it over carefully, Xie Fei decided to let him go for the time being. His mission was not yet completed, with only the last step left. If Ye Shimian continued to make trouble every other day, who knows when the other side would find out.
The best way is to let him leave here first and then deal with him slowly later.
Ye Shimian looked at Xie Feiqing's cold eyes and was scared to death. He also knew that he couldn't beat him now. Ning Yi's file only had the most basic information, so he had no way to deal with him.
…
Three days later, a piece of news broke out in City B without warning. The once powerful department store had a major capital chain problem. The big boss Ye Shimian had embezzled all the company's operating funds and has now disappeared without a trace.
In the Ye family villa, Qiu Min squatted in a corner of the living room with her legs hugged, watching the news. She felt very sad and confused about the future. But before she could feel sad, groups of people appeared outside the villa, asking for money and explanations.
Within a few days, all the fixed assets under Ye Shimian's name were mortgaged.
That night, when darkness fell, the streets were empty. Warm lights were on in the neighborhoods on both sides, but the homeless Qiu Min was wandering around the streets dragging a box.
She walked lifelessly, recalling her life, feeling sad about her fate, and didn't understand why such a gentle and considerate person like her couldn't find someone to rely on.
She just wants to have a man, she just doesn't want to wander around, why is it so difficult?
Tears wet her face. The early spring evening breeze was particularly biting. Qiu Min huddled and saw the small hotel at the corner. She paused, then walked over dragging her suitcase.
However, a black van suddenly came speeding on the street and stopped one or two meters away from her. The door was opened with a "swish" and several men got out.
She took a look and felt that the man looked familiar. While she was thinking, someone had covered her mouth with a handkerchief sprayed with sleeping pills, and then dragged her into the car.
Her vision gradually blurred, and before she passed out, she vaguely remembered, Aren’t these the debt collectors?
When Qiu Min woke up, she was tied to a chair and unable to move.
A middle-aged woman dressed up in fancy clothes was sitting nearby smoking a cigarette. Seeing that she had woken up, she said directly, "You have been given to me, your mother. Since you are still pretty, I will rate you as a third-rate prostitute and accept some third-rate merchants."
Qiu Min shook her head violently and shouted "no" loudly, saying that she was a good citizen and that forcing her to engage in prostitution was illegal and she would call the police.
The man next to her slapped her face twice, punched and kicked her, "Bah, you stinky bitch, don't be shameless, who do you think you are, don't even think about leaving now that you're here! Let me tell you, our boss lady spent a lot of money to buy you, if you don't earn the money back to me, I'll force you to be fucked on the street!"
Later, at the end of a street in the famous red-light district of City B, in front of a mid-range store, Qiu Min, wearing heavy makeup, twisted her waist and hips, greeting the customers passing by.
Sometimes she looked at the bright lights on the street and felt that she had fulfilled her life's wish -
Depend on men for life.
