Helan Zhi's wife nearly lost her life on the spot due to excessive blood loss.
Their daughter, not even a month old, was thrown outside and died in the torrential rain.
When they found the driver, he died on the spot. He Lanzhi's wife was rushed to the hospital and it took two days and two nights of emergency treatment to pull her back from the brink of death.
But this also left him with a mental health problem.
It happens from time to time.
The doctor advised that she should rest in a quiet place with occasional people around.
So they put the person here to be cared for.
This has been going on for twenty years.
"I'll go in and see your aunt first."
"Then I'll wait for my uncle outside."
Xie Chiquan stood outside and did not go in.
Helan Zhi wanted to talk to his wife, so he nodded and went inside.
Xie Xiangyu is very beautiful, having inherited the Xie family's exceptionally good genes.
Even though she was staring blankly ahead and sitting there motionless, it did not diminish her charm in the slightest.
“Xiangyu, I’ve run into that girl who looks a lot like your mother and is about five-tenths similar to you. I’ve told you before, she’s my newly adopted goddaughter.” He Lanzhi gently tidied the hair that had fallen onto her shoulder, her voice very gentle. “She’s also your goddaughter. I think it must be fate that brought her here, allowing us to have this chance encounter.”
The person sitting there did not react.
Helan Zhi continued, "Once our son returns, we'll invite her over for a formal meeting. Mother likes her very much, and I think our son will like her too. I just don't know if you like her? Xiangyu, do you want to go home to see her?"
No matter what Helan Zhi said, he still didn't get a response from the person in front of him.
"I ran into someone today and found out she's already married. If our daughter were still alive, she'd be about this age..."
Perhaps something had triggered Xie Xiangyu, for her vacant eyes twitched and she turned around.
She stared blankly at Helan Zhi, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Seeing this, Helan Zhi smiled, "You must have taken it to heart, right?"
Xie Xiangyu's mental illness causes her to shut herself off, weaving her desired dreams in her mind, and then entering a vicious cycle again and again.
They had no awareness of what was happening in the outside world.
Occasional episodes are caused by a sudden break in the flow of dreams, resulting in a brief loss of control.
However, this brief loss of control was enough to take her and the lives of those around her.
Therefore, in this situation, someone is needed to stabilize the dream she has created.
“Then I’ll make some arrangements for you. When you meet her, you’ll know I wasn’t wrong,” Helan said, holding her hand gently. “When our daughter was first born, she looked just like her grandmother when she was little. That’s what her grandmother said. So I thought that when this child grows up, she will definitely look more like her grandmother.”
Unfortunately, Sheng Qian's appearance is more like that of the old lady Helan when she was young, and she also bears some resemblance to Helan Zhi.
Sheng Qian was very good at growing flowers; she deliberately chose the best spots for the three of them.
So she looks even more stunning than Grandma Helan did when she was young!
Xie Chiquan waited outside for half an hour before He Lanzhi came out and suddenly said, "Pan Xianyun is dead, the case is closed, and the Qiao family's side has been dealt with cleanly. Has anyone else been bothering the Xie family? If there is anything they need help with, and the Xie family is unwilling to tell me, don't keep it from me for your family."
“Uncle, you don’t need to worry about the Xie family. The Xie family is not one that others can bother with as they please. Pan Xianyun’s death was a bit suspicious. Boss Qiao just dealt with it like that? Could it have cut off other clues?” Xie Chiquan felt a strange thought when he heard He Lanzhi’s words.
But I couldn't find any fault with it.
Given Helan Zhi's position, it's perfectly normal for him to have access to these kinds of things.
He Lanzhi probably just mentioned it casually, and Xie Chiquan didn't think much of it.
“What other clues are there? The evidence we caught them in the act means the Qiao family can’t escape,” Helan Zhi said, looking at his eldest nephew. “In the blink of an eye, you’ve all grown up.”
Xie Chiquan was taken aback, not understanding why Helan Zhi suddenly spoke with emotion, but still replied, "Yes, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. When the accident happened, Ajin and I were only five or six years old."
After saying that, he realized he had misspoke, glanced at Helan Zhi, and saw a faint smile in Helan Zhi's eyes, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Helan Zhi didn't respond to his words but suddenly said, "I recently adopted a goddaughter and I plan to introduce her to everyone when Ajin comes back. You can also come to Helan's house for a meal then."
"ah?"
Xie Chiquan was extremely surprised.
My uncle actually adopted a goddaughter?!
It has a dreamlike feel to it.
