“Xiǎo[1] Chu.”

In the evening, Yan Xun summoned his son to his study. He was looking at his son in front of him with some hesitation, and thinking of the scene that happened during the day with concern and regret.

No matter what entanglement and hatred between the elders, it should not be implicated in the children. He hated Gao Yaqin and her adulterer. He hated that they had brought so many years of suffering to them, and even more, they had treated their precious son badly.

If it were not for his son's good luck, he had met that good girl Dingding in the countryside, it was to profit from a disaster[2]. He also borrowed the light of his wife parents to find a relatively relaxed teaching job. If not, Yan Xun had swallowed up the heart of Gao Yaqin alive alright!

He looked at the news he found. In order to please her stepson and had a good reputation for being kind to her stepson, even her own son could be sacrificed. He looked at what she did, it was crazy.

"What happened during the day today……"

Yan Xun didn't dare speaking too frankly. After all, Gao Yaqin still his son's biological mother. He did too much. He was afraid that his son was sad and did it too lightly. He felt puzzled again, for a while, he was in a dilemma.

"Dad, you can rest a.s.sured that I am not sad."

Yan Chu saw his father's entanglement at this time.

His eyes were slightly drooping, and his eyelashes were shadowed by the light, which made his eyes invisible, but the haunting melancholy made the old man's heart ache.

"In the past, I also envied Jiang Nancheng and Jiang Xijin. I envied her for treating them like jewels and envied her unreserved devotion to them. I often wondered, I am also her child, why does she often fail to see me? Whether I got full marks in the exam or got the bruises on my face when I fight with my cla.s.smates, her eyes were always on other people, including Jiang Donglin. They are more loved and valued by her than I am."

Yan Chu's voice was low and hoa.r.s.e, such as the eloquent way, which made Yan Xun seemed to saw a young child. After losing his father, Yan Chu stayed alone in the corner of Jiang Jia[3]‘s house and looked at the scene of family's affection and self-respect. It also seemed to see that after his accident, his son, who was excluded by all, was pitifully painful.

Yan Xun's heart was gripped. Just listening to his son's short words, it made his hatred for Jiang Jia and Gao Yaqin more profound.

"Until I was used by her to replace Jiang Dongling and become an educated youth to send to the countryside, I suddenly understood that my mother died when I was very young, and the one who currently alive is the mother of Jiang Nancheng and Jiang Xijin, and a good stepmother of Jiang Dongling. Now for me, my family are only my father, Dingding, and our child."

Yan Chu raised his head and his eyes were clear. For a moment, Yan Xun felt that his son had really laid down his mother. He completely regarded her as a stranger, even with little hatred.

"Okay, it's just our family."

Yan Xun was be filled with a thousand regrets, his eyes were red, and his hands were shaking while held Yan Chu.

He was finally rea.s.sured that his son had not any reluctant to leave his biological mother. His son was too persistent in the past, and he was not rea.s.sured that he wanted to retaliate against Gao Yaqin and others.

Now it was good to cherish everything we had and to face all the hards.h.i.+ps with open-mindedness.

Yan Xun couldn't help laughing three times. This was his son, who was better than him. As for those who owe him and his people, him as his father would retaliated for him.

Yan Chu came out of the study and walked down the corridor. He watched Side Mission 2 suddenly increase by 20%. He was satisfied with his performance just now.

In fact, he was never a generous person. On the contrary, he was stingy and strict.

At the beginning of side mission 2, he had a plan. If he wanted to retaliate against the Jiang Jia, he could not do it without Yan Jia‘s financial situation and the relations.h.i.+ps behind them. To use these things, he could not escape his father's eyes before his wings were spread.

According to Yan Chu's understanding of him, if he was too persistent in revenge, it might not be a good thing for Yan Xun.

His old father always felt that he owed his son, and wanted to make up for it. He was too persistent in hatred. For the old man, it would only made him more distressed and self-reproached.

Not only love but also hatred that cut deeply, to some extent. If Yan Chu wanted to retaliate on Gao Yaqin, it was not because he had too much memory of this mother.

So he gave his old father some direction of Jiang Jia‘s investigation in his daily life obscurely, and showed his indifferent att.i.tude towards that family at the same time.

He knew in his heart that no matter what he thought, his old father, Jiang Jia, and Gao Yaqin were a hopeless situation. No matter how good he was, he couldn't let go a man who had harmed himself for ten years and treated his son unfairly. Yan Chu only added fire to make his old father not forget to add his own share when he started.

"Dad, what can I do for you?"

When Yan Chu returned to his room, Lin Dingding was already in bed with the bedside lamp turned on and a book in her hand.

The book opened on the first page when her father-in-law called her husband away, she was worried. After all, an unexpected visitor came to their home today. She was worried that person's appearance would affect the mood of her husband and father-in-law. She hadn't any mood to read at all.

"Dad gave our daughter several names, let me go to the counselor, ok?"

Those annoying people and things, Yan Chu from beginning to end did not had any desire to let Lin Dingding knew. She was still pregnant with a baby, in case to be distressed that was two people's trouble.

"Before the baby is born, you are a daughter. If we find out the baby is a son, we won't complain about you."

Lin Dingding's temperament was simple. She didn't think that her husband was deceiving her. She thought about the beautiful name they had given to their daughter, if it was put on a boy, don't mention how funny it was.

"Our children must love mom and dad the most, how can they blame me?"

Yan Chu gently rested his head on Lin Dingding's stomach: "In a few days, let's call home and pick up father-in-law and mother-in-law to the capital, ok? When you have a baby, they have to be there. Especially for some months, my father and I don't understand thoroughly what happened on yuèzi[4], and you have to be helped by mother-in-law."

"Really!"

Lin Dingding was delighted and put the book in her hand aside. These days, her life was happy and the only unhappy thing was she had been away from home for several months and could not see her parents.

It was only when she became a mother that she found it difficult for her parents. As her stomach grew bigger and bigger, Lin Dingding missed her parents even more. But these words were not good for her to say in front of her husband. It was unexpected that Yan Chu put forward this matter one step before her, which made her moved emotionally.

"My dad is still the team leader, he may not have time to come." Lin Dingding was somewhat lost. If her dad didn't come, would her mother came over?

"Then make a phone call and ask, if the father-in-law really can't get away from it, let the big brothers come over with mother-in-law. Thanks to their help in those days, I don't dislike my useless brothers-in-law, and then buy more thank-you gifts, in addition the share of jiùjiu[5], èr shū[6], and sān shū[7]."

Yan Chu said these words were also Yan Xun's purpose, he had always wanted to thank those family members and relatives of his daughter-in-law, thank them for their support and help for his son in those years.

"Yan Chu, it's very kind of you."

Lin Dingding with red-rimmed eyes nestled Yan Chu's arm, her head on his shoulder and whispered to him.

No woman did not like her husband to take his close relatives seriously, including Lin Dingding.

The couple were warm-hearted, but the situation in Jiang Jia on the other side was terrible.

"How was your visit to Yan Jia‘s house today?"

When Gao Yaqin returned home in a panic, she saw that Jiang Cheng did not go to work as usual but sat in the living room at home, swallowed clouds and blew out fog[8].

"Why didn't you turn on the light at home?"

Gao Yaqin frowned and fanned her nose. She didn't like Jiang Cheng smoking too much. These years, he was very considerate of her and seldom smoked at home. But today, he made a mistake again.

The room was full of smoke, just how long he was smoking?

She turned the switch on in the living room and saw Jiang Cheng's appearance, she was shocked.

"What happened to you? Who hit you?" Jiang Cheng's face was blue and purple, his clothes were in disorder. On the table in front of him and the sofa was covered with cigarette b.u.t.ts, which made him look battered and exhausted.

When had Gao Yaqin saw Jiang Cheng's appearance like this?

"I ask you, how are Yan Jia‘s circ.u.mstances when you are visiting!"

Jiang Cheng was originally sitting quietly on the sofa, but after listening to Gao Yaqin's endless chatter, he immediately burst into a rage, slapped the table in front of him and roared.

"You frightened me."

Gao Yaqin couldn't believe it, she pointed at the man in front of her.

"Māde![9]" Jiang Cheng kicked the table in front of him fiercely. He kicked it directly and it hit the opposite wall, made a violent crash sound. Gao Yaqin jumped up in horror, her hands on her chest could not help but shaking.

"Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng, what happened to you?" Gao Yaqin swallowed her saliva and felt that this red-eyed man, who seemed to want eat people, was totally different from the man she remembered as a overbearing and masculine man. This Jiang Cheng frightened her.

"Yan Xun, he seemed to know that I had written a letter to report him. He also suspected that Nancheng and Xijin were our adulterous pregnancy, not premature infants."

In the face of such a Jiang Cheng, Gao Yaqin did not dare to hide anything and told all about what happened during the day.

"Is it him? Is he making people beat you?" She seemed to want to understand what had happened to Jiang Cheng. She hurried to Jiang Cheng and looked at the wounds on his face. It was hard to hide her heartache: "Let's call the police at once, arrest him, and send him to reform. By then, not only all of Yan Jia‘s things will be ours, but also we don't have to worry about being afraid."

"Do you think Yan Xun is a fool? Leave such a big handle[10] for you to deal with him." Jiang Cheng looked at the woman in front of him as if he were looking at a fool.

Listening to his wife's words just now, Jiang Cheng couldn't help regretting that she shouldn't have given birth to the babies in her stomach since beginning. In fact, he already had an excellent eldest son, and whether he was born later or not, it didn't matter. Instead, he had a ready-made handle.

"I was dismissed. Someone reported that I had offered and accepted bribes. It is estimated that someone should come to investigate it immediately."

Jiang Cheng seemed to have lost all his strength. He sat on the sofa with his hands over his face and could not hide his decadence.

"How could this happen? It was Yan Xun, he came back to retaliate."

Gao Yaqin's feet became soft, she knew exactly what Jiang Cheng had done these years. Listening to Jiang Cheng's tone, it seemed that this trouble was not small, it was not a joke.

If they found out what they had collected over the years, they would went to jail.

"Are you trying to find a way out?"

Gao Yaqin asked while tugging at Jiang Cheng's sleeve.

"Can I stay here if I can? Now the people above have heard sound of the wind[11], who is not avoiding me? The money Yan Xun gave at the beginning has spent almost all on bribing the top and bottom these years, plus your extravagant and wasteful expenses with your children, there is still as much as left for my activities."

Jiang Cheng had a headache when he thought about the clothes in Gao Yaqin's cabinet and the bottles and jars on the dressing table. As a matter of fact, virtuous wife and husband had little disaster[12], he shouldn't have been with her in the first place.

"What do you mean? Who do you call my son and daughter? Aren't Nancheng and Xijin your children?" Gao Yaqin stared at his indifferent husband as if he had never known her before.

"Dad, Mom, how come there's such a strong smell of smoke at home?"

Jiang Jia‘s little daughter and little son came in carrying their school bags, they asked and complained about the choking smell of smoke.

"Mom, w.a.n.g Juan of our cla.s.s bought a super beautiful new dress, which was bought in a newly opened department store. Today she was showing off in front of me all day. Her face and the waist of that water bucket dare to show up in front me. I don't care, I want to buy it, too. Would you like to take me shopping when the holidays are over?"

Jiang Nancheng was a little girl who loved dressing up. She was eleven years old. She had slender, elegant, and beautiful appearance also good grades. She was the pride of Gao Yaqin.

"Mom, I take a fancy to a pair of running shoes. You bought clothes for mèimei[13] and a pair of shoes for me."

Jiang Xijin was also neatly demanding: "And this month we've run out of pocket money, you give me another fifty, I told my cla.s.smates that tomorrow I invited them for soda."

Jiang Jia's jiědì[14] never worry about money. They knew that they had a lot of money at home, there was no shortage of them.

"Look at the good children you've taught, situation at home already like this and they still thinking about buying, buying and buying. I presume the whole family will die drinking the northwest wind[15]."

Jiang Cheng felt only a headache, he suddenly stood up and pushed a pair of children away.

"Dad——"

Jiang Nancheng and Jiang Xijin were staring at each other. They opened their mouth, but they didn't know what to say, and they couldn't figure out why Dad was doing this to them.

"Jiang Cheng, what do you mean? You want to know that box of gold was given to me by Yan Xun, I can spend it as much as I want. But for you and your good son, are you qualified to spend this money? I love you, so I think about it for you, give money to your activities, buy you a house, but what does Jiang Donglin count? I've had enough of him spending my money on the outside these years, but what's wrong with my children's spending a few dollars now? Aren't they your children?"

Gao Yaqin was also on fire. Today, she was very angry at Yan Jia's house during the day, she was not happy at all. Jiang Cheng also treated her like this, which made Gao Yaqin felt a little cold.

"Is that what Yan Xun gave you? Naturally it was left to his son Yan Chu by him. Look at what you did, in order to prove that Nancheng and Xijin are premature births, not adulterine child, you secretly sent the children to the Yan Jia's old house, and then pretend that the child does not know how to be active. Did you ever think about them being left in the old house for a day and a night when you were angry with them? Well, if it weren't for your own use, you thought I wanted to lie in bed with you, a poisonous woman who could even laid her hands on her own flesh and blood."

"Jiang Cheng!"

Gao Yaqin listened to Jiang Cheng's ridicule and looked at her children's astonished and confused eyes. She immediately screamed and rushed to Jiang Cheng with a wave of her hand.

Jiang Cheng was not a pa.s.sive beater either. Soon, in front of a pair of their most precious children in former days, the model couple, who were praised by everyone, fought together.

When Jiang Donglin came back, the furniture in the house was all smashed up. His dìdì[16] and mèimei huddled in the corner. His father sat paralyzed on the ground. As for his stepmother, she fell down beside the museum shelf and motionless. There was a pool of blood behind her, and it already solidified.
