Sheng Guanhua ran home.
Sheng Ting stared blankly in one direction, devoid of any hope.
*
Sheng Qian was awakened by a soft knocking sound.
I glanced at the digital clock in the space.
4:20.
"Meow."
As soon as the bedroom door opened, the big cat ran out.
Sheng Qian opened the front door and was awakened by a strong smell of blood.
Her initial wariness was immediately replaced by surprise at the sight of Sheng Ting in front of her.
"Sheng Ting!"
Sheng Ting lay down weakly by the door.
Sheng Qian quickly carried the person inside.
With her slender body, she easily picked up Sheng Ting.
The door was closed, and the lights were turned on.
Sheng Qian then clearly saw the bloody mess on Sheng Ting's body.
Anyone who didn't know better would think there had been some kind of attack outside.
"Sheng Ting!"
Sheng Qian gently patted Sheng Ting's face. Sheng Ting had already fainted, and her breathing had become weak.
Sheng Qian quickly took out the medicine and cleaned Sheng Ting's wounds.
By the time Sheng Ting's wounds were treated, it was already dawn.
Sheng Qian didn't go for a run today; instead, she made breakfast first.
Sheng Ting was beaten so badly and walked such a long distance that her body was extremely weak.
If Sheng Qian hadn't heard the sound, Sheng Ting would probably have died outside.
Without a doubt, Sheng Ting's injuries were inflicted by Sheng Ping's family, using either iron wire or sharp bamboo sticks as weapons.
There is a type of bamboo whose thorns can grow several meters long, and are both hard and tough.
When bamboo splinters are small, they can be more dangerous than sharp weapons.
Most of the injuries on Sheng Ting's body were caused by these bamboo spikes.
Parents who can beat their own daughters like this are unfit to be parents.
Sheng Qian knew that there were many people like Sheng Ting.
Some were killed, thrown into the back mountain, and that was the end of it.
certainly.
This kind of thing won't cause any disturbance as long as no one intervenes.
If things escalate, things will be different.
On the surface, someone will still try to manage it.
Sheng Qian ate breakfast and waited for Sheng Ting to wake up.
She also needs to prepare for her trip to Beijing in the next few days.
She didn't call the Long family, planning to go directly to their home and divorce Long Yunting once she arrived in Beijing.
While taking care of Long Yunting, Sheng Qian kept hinting to him that she wanted a divorce when she woke up.
She was certain that she had come to the door, and the other party would be eager to get rid of her, this country bumpkin.
Things will be handled quickly.
so.
Sheng Qian never expected that her divorce would be hindered.
"Hmm."
Sheng Ting woke up.
She opened her eyes.
Realizing he was lying in the wrong place, he was about to get up when a hand pressed him down.
"Don't aggravate your injuries, lean back slowly."
"Xiao Qian!"
"It's me."
"Xiao Qian..." Sheng Ting choked up immediately when she called out the second time.
"Eat breakfast first."
Sheng Qian didn't ask anything. She first brought Sheng Ting breakfast, which was liquid food and easy to swallow.
Smelling the aroma of the meat porridge, Sheng Ting's tears streamed down her face.
Sheng Qian took a cloth and wiped away her tears.
By the time Sheng Ting finished breakfast, she was already in tears.
Sheng Ting could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
Sheng Qian didn't rush to ask what happened. She waited until the crying stopped before asking, "What are you planning to do next? Are you going back to Wutong Village?"
Sheng Ting seemed to have been stimulated, and her body trembled violently.
She dared not go back.
If I run out in the middle of the night and go back, I'll definitely be beaten to death.
Sheng Ting grabbed Sheng Qian's hand and belatedly realized that her hand could move again.
"Xiaoqian, I dare not go back. I'll definitely be beaten to death if I go back."
"Then get ready, come out with me in a couple of days."
"Go out?" Sheng Ting, her eyes red-rimmed, stared blankly. "Where to?"
"The capital city."
Sheng Ting stared blankly at Sheng Qian, speechless.
Sheng Qian took out the prepared medicine and gave it to her, saying, "Wait half an hour before you drink this bowl of medicine."
Sheng Ting then realized what was happening, "Xiao Qian, what are you going to the capital for?"
"Doing business," the divorce was just a side effect.
Sheng Ting had never left the town and had no idea what the outside world was like. When she first heard Sheng Qian say that she was going to the capital, she felt very uneasy and hesitant.
"Xiaoqian, do you really have to go to such a far place to do business?"
Sheng Qian glanced at Sheng Ting: "If you don't dare to come along, I'll take you to the county town and find you a place to settle down."
Sheng Ting felt completely uncertain about living alone.
She knew that her hesitation was pathetic.
But she hadn't received much education and had no idea how to survive once she went out into the world.
Sheng Qian added, "But you have to be mentally prepared. After all, many people from our area have moved to the city. If your family is really looking, they will definitely be able to find you in the county town."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ting's body trembled again.
“Since you’ve chosen to run away, then just do it right and let your family think you’re dead,” Sheng Qian said, sitting down opposite her. “You choose a place, and I’ll send you there immediately if I can meet your requirements.”
Sheng Qian did not give Sheng Ting a second option.
Sheng Ting didn't want to be beaten to death, so she had no choice but to leave.
And you can't choose a place that's close by.
Go to a place where nobody knows you and start a new life.
Sheng Qian knew that Sheng Ting needed even more courage to make that choice.
So he stood up and said, "You think about it carefully first, I'll go out and make some preparations."
Sheng Ting stared blankly ahead, her mind in turmoil, unsure of what to do.
Sheng Guanhua kept Sheng Ting's whereabouts a secret in the village.
