Chapter 426: Evil (55)
It's really nauseating and disgusting.
As an ordinary person, it is simply impossible to bring down such a behemoth. There are too many interests involved. If this behemoth falls, it will inevitably implicate countless forces, big and small, that support it.
So it can't fall.
Because it has connections with too many forces, even if it does all kinds of evil, as long as it does not cause any disturbance, the smaller forces will support it.
Yan family.
That's how it exists.
As the eldest son and sole leader of the Yan family, Yan Shen's influence can be imagined. Although there are many collateral uncles and cousins who are trying to seize power, none of them have been able to shake their foundation so far.
Yan Shen was sent here.
It is also the family's protection for him.
The real power of this town lies in the Yan family, and privately, they are basically all their own people. It is no exaggeration to say that they can cover the sky with one hand.
Therefore.
No matter how big or excessive the noise is, it will be useless even if it is reported, because it will still be suppressed.
Want to take advantage of the hot searches in public opinion.
It will be bought out quickly and won’t make any splash at all.
Naturally, no media outlet dared to come and interview them, or dig deeper into the matter. Even if they had a hundred guts, they wouldn't go out of their way to offend the Yan family, even if they knew about the dirty deeds they'd done behind the scenes.
But who would want to offend a giant?
I'm afraid the news hasn't been revealed yet.
He was killed first.
Some equally powerful enemies knew of its numerous evil deeds, but even if they had evidence against it, they still did not expose it. After all, the enemy was too powerful and had some evidence against them.
As long as it doesn't fall.
These old foxes will pretend not to see what the other party is doing.
Unless the truth is revealed, everyone wants to step on it. Only when they are sure the other party is completely defeated and will not stand up again, and will no longer pose a threat to them, will they take the opportunity to add insult to injury and throw out evidence.
If you want to step on it, you have to step into the mud.
Make sure the other party can never turn over.
This time, there was no barrier of gloves. When Qiao Xi stretched out her fair hands and tried to touch him, the touch of those soft little hands was much clearer and closer than last time.
Yan Shen frowned slightly.
He tried his best to suppress his trembling rejection instinct and tried his best to accept and embrace the little hands that were tentatively touching him little by little.
He is still rejecting.
Although it is dirty, it is dirty, I also want to try to accept Qiao Xi as a person.
But the repulsion in his heart was even greater than he had imagined.
However, when Qiao Xi tentatively touched and observed his reaction in her beautiful eyes, when their eyes met, it seemed that the disgust and rejection were no longer so strong.
only.
But Qiao Xi didn't want to look at him.
The girl lowered her eyelids and rubbed her fingertips gently. She seemed to have remembered something inadvertently, and suddenly spoke when Yan Shen was bearing this conflicting feeling alone.
"Do you know how Yu Zhi treated me?"
Qiao Xi's voice, as clear and ethereal as a spring stream, interrupted Yan Shen's thoughts. He frowned, and his voice, which was tinged with haze and a little hoarse, concealed a subtle movement.
"How did it treat you?" he asked.
In fact, Yan Shen had no idea how other people treated her.
This kind of thing cannot be found.
If Qiao Xi hadn't said it, he would have asked someone to pay special attention. He found that Yu Zhi and Yan Liang treated Qiao Xi differently. Otherwise, who would have thought that there was such a deep relationship between them?
She brought it up at this time.
It also made Yan Shen's dark eyes appear even more fierce, and the dark fire spreading in them began to devour his sanity.
"That's right."
Qiao Xi chuckled, lifted the quilt, and crawled in. The originally warm quilt was also taken away by the girl. Yan Shen frowned and was about to ask her to stop, but then Qiao Xi pulled it down.
The chill came over me in an instant.
All the warmth was swept away, and before I could adapt to the temperature change, Qiao Xi came over.
“……!”
All of Yan Shen's nerves were tense in an instant. The indescribable shock and the unprecedented moment made his pupils shrink slightly.
The girl's beautiful and upturned eyebrows are charming.
Like a bewitching demon, she acted with unbridled will and excesses before his eyes, constantly challenging his limits of tolerance, yet always managing to pull herself back from the brink of transgression.
Yan Shen's pupils contracted.
Her eyes were filled with more urgent and intense emotions. Yu Zhi's rejection of her became stronger than ever. But at the same time, she knew it was only to this extent.
It doesn't seem that hard to accept.
It didn't live up to his worst expectations.
But after thinking about what Yu Zhi had done to her, the intense hatred that spread over her seemed to be mixed with an inexplicable feeling of bitterness. And Yan Shen soon realized that it was an emotion called jealousy.
It's dirty.
This was the first thought that came to mind.
However, the light and soft girl seemed to notice that he was having a strong psychological struggle, and realizing that he was unmoved, she seized the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and change her offensive.
A moment.
This also made Yan Shen's hands involuntarily clench her shoulders.
"That's enough." The man's hoarse voice contained a warning.
Qiao Xi sat up and looked up at him, silent and silent. She simply stared at him with her bright, beautiful, clear almond-shaped eyes. Yan Shen's gaze, involuntarily, fell on her rosy, moist lips.
As clear and translucent as a ruby.
Very beautiful color.
"President, is this enough? Don't you want to know what Yan Liang did to me?"
The girl was not afraid at all when she heard his words.
Instead, she smiled with her hands covering her lips and her eyes curved. Her almond-shaped eyes also took on a lovely crescent shape, and even the shallow dimples on both sides of her rosy cheeks were affected.
An inexplicable impulse.
Yan Shen fell silent.
However, Qiao Xi didn't give him time to think and turned over and passed him.
Thoughts were pushed and drifted along.
Immersed in this unprecedented novel experience, Yan Shen gradually lost himself, as if he had strayed into a deep and quiet forest. Before his eyes lay a hazy mist like a fairyland, and he gradually lost himself as he walked deeper and deeper into it.
You shouldn't cross the bottom line.
His instinct and reason were rejecting Qiao Xi.
However, the more I thought about it, the stronger my sense of guilt for blaspheming and violating my own beliefs became, and the more uncontrollable all the chain reactions it brought about became.
With his current injuries.
Still need to rest.
However, as the scabbed wounds began to heal under the bandages, they broke and tore apart one by one.
The girl's thick black hair, like a waterfall, was scattered on the white pillow in the hospital ward.
His self-sustaining rationality and all the emotions he could feel were like streams, all converging together.
It began to surge.
Forming huge waves.
The wound must have been painful, but he hugged Qiao Xi's slender waist and held her in his arms.
This pain.
Mixed with the sweet and joyful emotions in my heart, it seems insignificant.
This moment crossed the bottom line.
The defensive walls built by reason collapsed completely. He hated Qiao Xi for turning him into what he is now, but he was addicted to the dreamlike yet unreal feeling that she gave him.
All the inflated ambitions.
They were all drowned in the wave of emotions and disappeared without a trace.
Forget about those things for a while.
Just soak in this brief moment.
Yan Shen's injuries hadn't healed, and just when they were starting to show signs of improvement, they were torn apart again. The smell of blood mixed with the strong aroma of medicine lingered in his nostrils.
The one who desires to have it.
They are often crazy.
He ignored the wounds and tears on his body, and as time went on, even the pain began to numb, transforming into a sweetness that he could feel.
He left Qiao Xi in the ward overnight.
No one else was allowed to come.
Naturally, Qiao Xi would help with re-bandaging the bandages and wounds, which inevitably took some time.
The wounds haven't scabbed over yet.
The blood that seeped out from the broken bandage dyed the bandage red, and the new pink bandage looked very fragile. There were several deeper cuts on Yan Shen's body.
I don’t know what Zhan Qi did at that time.
Qiao Xi applied medicine to him.
The slightly cool and soft fingertips would always touch the itchy wound accidentally, and this unintentional touch would naturally make it impossible for the person who was experiencing it for the first time to calm down so quickly.
"President, your wounds are all broken open."
Qiao Xi was busy with the work at hand without haste.
When her beautiful eyes swept across the crisscrossing scars on the man's body, looking at the horrific large unhealed scars, one could imagine how serious Zhan Qi's attack was.
Yan Shen also lowered his eyes and glanced at him.
Seeing these scars, Qiao Xi must have felt the same way.
After all.
When I saw her in the office that time.
This was probably the time when Zhan Qi tortured her the most severely. If she hadn't told him about the marks he left on her body.
I'm afraid everyone thought she was beaten.
But now it seems.
The degree of torture she suffered was much less severe than a real beating, at least it didn't require hospitalization.
Think of this.
The temperature in Yan Shen's eyes gradually cooled down, and he let the girl apply medicine and re-bandage him without saying a word.
I wanted to stop at the right time.
only……
When he saw the girl's slender arms climbing up his neck and her soft waist slowly approaching him, the touch of her snow-white and delicate skin even in the dark was a signal that made him sink.
Inch by inch.
Qiao Xi devoured all of his rationality and conflicting emotions.
I can't care about anything else.
Put aside all disgust and struggle and obey your own wishes so honestly.
Yan Shen originally didn't want to overstep the line.
But when he finally got it, the strong disgust in his heart was replaced by other surging emotions. He felt like he was being controlled and lost himself in a daze.
But now I have calmed down and come to my senses.
That soul-stirring experience.
It was like a small hook left in his heart, and whenever he thought about it, his mind would become active and he would be eager to take action.
There's something wrong with him.
Yan Shen felt a little unfamiliar with himself. He was not the kind of person who indulged in this kind of thing, but the addiction he developed after his first try seemed to be even greater than he had imagined.
But it doesn't matter.
No one will have the chance to get involved with Qiao Xi again.
In the system space.
Qiao Xi had been sitting in a row with the two cat systems for a long time. The big screen next to them was showing what was happening in the world, and they were eating hot pot here.
Leave from Baizhizhi.
The door of the room was closed, and she said a few words to Yan Shen.
She slipped back quickly.
It would be a waste if you miss even a second of hotpot in the middle of winter. How can this be tolerated?
originally.
The little white cat system and the little black cat system that were still maintaining her original body were stunned when they saw the person who was originally lying there suddenly jump up.
result.
Before I could figure out the situation, I was dragged to have hotpot.
Her body has been taking in nutrients for a long time.
All the body functions were well maintained, but every time Qiao Xi's consciousness was withdrawn from these virtual game worlds, he could find that his body was changing little by little.
It is both recovery and treatment.
The black-haired young man who picked up the mutton roll with chopsticks added casually.
The silver-haired young man next to him didn't say anything.
He ate a vegetarian meal, but wasn't so keen on meat. The host's body was severely damaged, degenerating to the physical fitness of ancient humans, so he had to use this method to repair it.
Each time you experience a world.
Collecting some hidden values will repair some of her original body.
To the end.
It is not that Qiao Xi, whose memory and body are severely damaged, will recover to the level of humans who have evolved ten times in their era. It is better to say that Qiao Xi, whose memory and body are severely damaged, is originally a person of their era.
Only the body can recover.
Memory that is severely damaged will not work.
The chip storing her memory has been completely burned, and only Qiao Xi herself has access to the backed-up memory.
But mental strength can be repaired.
Now that so much time has passed, Qiao Xi has been able to adapt well without any rejection reaction. The situation in this spiritual space is much better than at the beginning, and can support the loading of more therapeutic drugs to help recovery.
Treatment drugs.
Because it is too large, it will exist in a form that she can accept when it is invested in batches.
Nature is...
The 'game worlds' she had experienced, she adapted to the drug itself during the 'playing' process. After it ended, it was gradually absorbed into the spiritual space, healing the severely damaged body.
Then……
"How did you finish picking up all the meat?"
Qiao Xi fished with a large colander but couldn't find a single piece of mutton roll. Turning around, she saw that the bowl of the black-haired young man next to her was almost piled with food, and she was speechless on the spot.
【Just a little more】
On the other side, Bai withdrew his thoughts, picked up the plate and put some new food in.
[Host, do you want to check on the others? ]
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xi looked up and tapped the screen.
【Look at Bai Zhizhi】
She wasn't very interested in what was happening to other people. She would just feel disgusted if she looked at it, so she might as well not look at it at all.
The screen is flipped.
It reflected the situation on Bai Zhizhi's side.
After being pulled away and persuaded by the nurses, Bai Zhizhi's emotions were still not stable. She returned home and broke down crying.
She didn't know what to do.
So I called my mother and told her that I had messed up something and lost someone very important.
Her mother thought she was crying.
Because something happened to grandma.
Bai Zhizhi couldn't accept the thought of her child being so heartbroken and someone very important to her being lost. Therefore, she quickly took a bus back from the city and rushed home to go to the hospital with her.
"Mom, Mommy?"
Bai Zhizhi fell asleep while crying. When she woke up, she saw her mother rushing back to shake her and tell her to get up quickly and go to the hospital.
She was still a little confused.
But she soon became nervous again. Could it be that her mother already knew that she cried in the hospital and was thought to be causing trouble in the ward, and was persuaded to leave by the nurse?
"Don't be afraid, Zhizhi. Grandma will be fine."
Her mother tried to comfort her with an anxious look on her face, but her hands did not stop busy packing.
Bai Zhizhi saw her like this.
She was immediately startled and even the sleepiness was quickly driven away by her. She woke up quickly and got out of bed and ran to her mother to stop her.
"No, no, grandma is in good health, grandma is fine!"
I don’t know if it’s because of the change of environment.
Grandma's health has improved a lot recently, and her condition has begun to improve. As long as it doesn't get worse, there is still hope.
Her mother was stunned.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her with a slightly tired look: "Are you okay? You... then why are you crying, kid?"
She cried so sadly on the phone.
He couldn't even finish a complete sentence without sobbing for a long time.
She was still at work when she heard a colleague say her daughter had called to look for her, so she went to pick her up. Then she thought about how her daughter was usually carefree, and how could she have been so sad.
This is not.
Her heart skipped a beat and she had a bad feeling, so she took the bus back as soon as it was time to get off work.
I thought something happened.
Now seeing her daughter trying hard to explain, she was glad that it was just a misunderstanding. She sighed slightly and pulled her daughter to sit aside.
Bai Zhizhi lowered her head.
She tugged at her clothes nervously, feeling nervous, not knowing if her mother would scold her or blame her.
But she was also really confused.
I don’t know what to do.
So she told her mother about Qiao Xi's situation, otherwise she would not be able to help Qiao Xi or save Qiao Xi.
not to mention.
Yan Shen knew that after she broke into the ward and heard those words, she might really attack her grandmother, and would not let Qiao Xi go.
She didn't want to be like this because of herself.
This led to all the tragedies, and he didn't want Qiao Xi's future life to be controlled by Yan Shen.
so.
She was powerless to save Qiao Xi on her own, so she could only ask an adult for help, and ask her mother.
As expected.
After telling the story about Qiao Xi, my mother's face became more serious than ever.
"Zhizhi, is what you said true?"
"It's true. I won't lie. Everything I said is true."
Bai Zhizhi nodded continuously with tears in her eyes.
She really didn't know what to do, nor did she understand how she could rescue Qiao Xi.
"Okay, I understand."
She has always trusted her daughter, after all, she was the one she raised.
I was spoiled a little when I was a child.
After all, he is a little willful and has been too well protected, so he has never experienced any setbacks, but this child is not a bad person by nature. He is gentle and willing to listen to advice.
only.
What she didn't expect was that such a thing would happen in such a small town.
I thought it was simple.
But...this kind of thing still happens.
Moreover, perhaps due to the influence of simple and feudal ideas, the victimized girls are very reluctant to seek help even if they are in dire straits, for fear that others will talk about them and think they are different.
But they don't have the ability to handle these things alone.
Nor do they have the mental maturity to make their own decisions.
Too little social experience.
When encountering these things, I always feel anxious and uneasy.
"I ran away, I left her behind and ran away again..." Bai Zhizhi's tears rolled down one after another, and the unspeakable guilt tormented her heart all the time.
She can't do anything.
For the first time, I realized how powerless I was.
"Zhizhi, you can't handle this on your own. You didn't rush forward alone, but instead looked for your mother and sought help. You did the right thing."
Her mother's gentle voice came, and she gently put her arm around her shoulders, held her in her arms, patted her back and coaxed her.
"It's okay, just tell mom about them."
Bai Zhizhi clutched the corner of her clothes and sobbed.
She tried her best to tell her mother everything she could think of about F4.
At this time.
It was also thanks to her previous love for idol dramas that she didn't even realize how much news about F4 she had unknowingly heard.
"You said that many outstanding girls have liked them?"
"Well... probably, but a lot of people transferred or dropped out."
Bai Zhizhi was also a little unsure.
There are many rumors that those who like F4 are all very outstanding girls. Some of them gave up on pursuing F4, while others chose not to bother them anymore and transferred to other schools or other places.
How is the situation later.
No one paid attention to it. After all, those outstanding girls who liked F4 in the past were said to not come from particularly good families.
Even if there are some better ones.
I don't have many friends, so it doesn't seem strange that I would like handsome boys when I'm so lonely, right?
When she felt so lonely.
I was also attracted and interested by F4.
Bai Zhizhi thought so in a daze.
...?
...Huh?
When she thought of this, the familiar, inexplicably strange feeling once again flooded into Bai Zhizhi's mind.
Her heart ached slightly, and she couldn't help but frown and clutch her clothes over her chest, her face a little pale.
Why.
Why is there another moment of inexplicable panic and strong sense of disharmony?
I always feel like...
Something seems to be wrong, as if everything that is happening now is contrary to "reasonable" development.
...What a strange feeling.
"Zhizhi, I understand. Don't tell anyone else about this for now. Keep an eye on that girl if possible. Do your best to protect her and wait for mom, okay?"
The gentle touch brought Bai Zhizhi back to her senses.
She suddenly came to her senses.
At this moment, I seemed to be pulled back into reality. I couldn't feel anything and could only nod blankly.
The strong sense of incongruity that appeared at that moment seemed to disappear without a trace in an instant.
