Xiao Wanqing supported the wall and stood up slowly, panting heavily. After squatting for too long and crying for too long, she was a little dizzy and exhausted. She patted her forehead to wake herself up, and lowered her head to call Wen Tong.
The call was quickly connected. Wen Tong was obviously in a good mood, and a brisk joking voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yo? What time did you go to bed last night, and you're already up?" Before the coffee table, she was looking at the souvenir and New Year's gift that Shi Jinglan City Express brought back for her on a business trip, with an unconscious smile on her lips.
"Wen Tong..."
As soon as Xiao Wanqing's hoarse crying voice came out, the smile on Wen Tong's lips disappeared instantly. She sat up straight unconsciously, raised her eyebrows and asked in a deep voice of concern, "What's wrong with you? Did you cry? What happened? Where are you?"
Xiao Wanqing calmed down her breathing, sniffed her nose, and replied in a nasal voice: "I'm fine. Wen Tong, sister Zhou Qin came to the house suddenly in the morning and found out about me and Xianxian. I asked Xianxian to follow her first. I went back. On the way back, she passed out and went to the hospital. I just called Brother Lin Zhan. Brother Lin Zhan said that she just came to the rescue and didn’t want me to disturb her. But I don’t worry. Can you call me for me? Ask, help me take a look. I will go with you, if I don’t go in, I’ll just take a look from afar.”
Wen Tong's heart sank immediately, and when she heard that Zhou Qin had come to the rescue, she felt a little relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Subconsciously, she blurted out and asked Xiao Wanqing: "How did Sister Zhou Qin find out?" After passing early in the morning, she found out that Zhou Qin was still so emotional that she passed out halfway, and Wen Tong had to go to the worst situation. She could tell that Xiao Wanqing's condition was also very bad, her voice was hoarse and weak, and she said nervously: "Xiao, how are you? Sister Zhou Qin, did she do anything to you?"
"I'm fine." When Xiao Wanqing heard the concern, she suddenly had a sore nose and choked up her sobs. "Wen Tong, can you call me and ask?"
When Wen Tong heard her choked up voice, his heart ached immediately, and he couldn't believe that she said "it's okay". Something must have happened, otherwise how could someone like Xiao Wanqing, who is used to hiding himself, be so fragile and so gaffe. She grabbed the car keys on the coffee table, stood up, and walked out hurriedly. As she walked, she comforted her in a low voice: "I'll ask for you. But first, tell me where you are. I'll go find you. We'll meet you face to face." Say. Don't worry, sister Zhou Qin and brother Lin Zhan will be fine." She was worried about Zhou Qin, but she was even more worried about Xiao Wanqing. There are still people around Zhou Qin, but there is no one around Xiao Wanqing.
Concerned about the redness and swelling on her face, Xiao Wanqing evaded: "I'm fine, Wen Tong, you don't need to come here, you can ask me first."
"Xiao Wanqing, where are you?! If I don't see you, I won't call and ask for you." Wen Tong became more and more worried when she heard her refusal, and became angry for no reason, and demanded forcefully.
"I'm at their door." Xiao Wanqing bit her lip, unable to escape, so she had to answer truthfully.
Wen Tong frowned even tighter. Southern district, Lin's family, how did Xiao Wanqing walk back on this road with so many unbearable memories after so many years of absence. Her throat choked, and she said with dark eyes, "I'll pick you up right now. You wait for me there."
In the ward, Zhou Qin was sick and haggard. When she woke up, she saw Lin Zhan and Lin Xian surrounding her with concerns and worries on their faces. She stared at Lin Xian for a few seconds, turned her eyes away, ignored her on purpose, and told Lin Zhan in a hoarse and weak voice, "Take Lin Xian to my mother's house and let my mother watch her. Before I go back, Don't go anywhere."
It is impossible for her to let Lin Xian go back to contact Xiao Wanqing again. But Lin Zhan's heart is too soft, and he still cares about himself in the hospital, afraid that he won't be able to see Lin Xian. Besides, keeping Lin Xian at home, with no one to take care of her food and daily life, she is still worried after all. Handing her over to the old man, Lin Xian has no sense of propriety, nor will he be reckless regardless of the consequences. Zhou Qin was sure that Lin Xian did not dare to explain to the old man why his freedom was restricted, and no matter how much the old man doted on Lin Xian, since she was still sick in bed, he would not dare to pamper Lin Xian.
Lin Xian was still happy for Zhou Qin's waking up, and worried about Zhou Qin's body. When she heard her domineering words, she immediately returned to the reality before she fainted, and protested with wide eyes: "I won't go , Mom, you are under house arrest! How can you be so arrogant. "
Lin Zhan was also taken aback when he heard this. He looked at the aggrieved and helpless Lin Xian, hesitated for a few seconds, wanted to ease the tense atmosphere between mother and daughter, and said tactfully, "Qinqin, but Lin Xian has to take the final exam in two days."
Seeing that Lin Zhan seemed to have failed to reach a united front with him, Zhou Qin started to burn with anger. It's been like this since Lin Xian was a child. If Lin Zhan hadn't always manipulated Lin Xian like this, protecting Lin Xian and Xi Ni when he was controlling Lin Xian, Lin Xian might not be as reckless as he is now.
She began to breathe shortly, she raised her voice vigorously, her lips were trembling with anger, and asked Lin Zhan: "Lin Zhan, I just asked, do you still want this daughter?! Do you still want this family!" While speaking, Tears welled up from the corners of her eyes, soaking the white pillow towel.
The muscles of Lin Zhan's cheeks were tense, and he trembled with distress when he looked at his lover who had always wanted to be strong but collapsed at this moment. After a while, he compromised and agreed: "Okay, don't get excited, I'll take her back."
"Father!" Lin Xian said angrily. "Mom, I'm not going. Calm down. Give me a chance to have a good chat with you. Why are you so stubborn and authoritarian?"
Zhou Qin ignored her protest, narrowed his tired eyes, and told Lin Zhan: "Remember to check the source of the letter in my mailbox when you go back. Contact the school and give Lin Xian a delayed exam, and then Contact Lao Qi again to see if he can transfer Lin Xian to another school."
Zhou Qin was worried about the person who tricked Lin Xian behind his back. If he could send her an email today, he might not be able to use Lin Xian's excuse to do something terrible to Lin Xian in the future.
Lao Qi was her former senior, and now he has been promoted to the leadership of a key university in the neighboring province that is as famous as Jingnan. The procedures for going abroad are complicated, especially if Lin Xian does not cooperate, it will not be possible for a while. But the transfer can be done, as long as she and Lin Zhan show up, the transfer can be done, and Lin Xian can't help but disagree. Now she just wants to separate Lin Xian and Xiao Wanqing completely first, to prevent them from meeting and contacting again.
"Okay." Lin Zhan seemed to have completely fallen for Zhou Qin.
Lin Xian was furious, his eyes were red and he raised his voice and shouted: "I won't go to my grandma's house, and I won't transfer schools. You guys are too much. If you transfer me, I will drop out of school. Whoever loves to study should study well." gone."
Enraged by Lin Xian's attitude, Zhou Qin's chest heaved violently, and he yelled back at Lin Xian with a trembling voice: "Lin Xian...you...you ask yourself, are you...you are not too much? Am I not for you? I...I I don't ask you to be grateful to me now, I just beg... a clear conscience."
A passing nurse heard the loud quarrel in the ward, pushed the door open and came in to reprimand: "What's the noise? Don't you know this is a hospital? The patient needs to rest, don't you understand? How do you behave as family members."
Lin Zhan hurriedly stepped forward to appease the excited Zhou Qin, and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Qinqin, take care of your illness. I'll take care of these things, and I'll take care of them."
Zhou Qin looked at Lin Zhan deeply, and said weakly, "Lin Zhan, I believe in you. Take her back first. I'm fine here. I'll call the nurse if something happens."
Lin Xian's wishes were completely ignored, she couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and slammed the door and left without waiting for them to finish speaking in disappointment.
Lin Zhan frowned, and hurriedly said to Zhou Qin, "Then I'll go first, and I'll come back after delivering Xianxian", and then quickly chased him out.
While wiping tears, Lin Xian frantically pressed the down button at the elevator entrance. Seeing her figure, Lin Zhan immediately trotted to her side, grabbed her moving hand, and asked her with a sullen face, "Lin Xian, where are you going?"
Lin Zhan has always loved and pampered her, and rarely called her by her full name. Once he called her by her full name, it meant that he was really angry.
Lin Xian looked at his father with a gloomy and serious face, feeling sad and wronged that he was about to die. But she still gritted her teeth, looked into his cold eyes stubbornly, and insisted: "I won't go to my grandma's house, and I won't transfer schools. I'm going to the South District. When you calm down, you can talk to me." I’ll come back after we’ve communicated well.”
"Lin Xian, I didn't expect you to be such a child." Lin Zhan's expression was full of disappointment and depression. He clenched his fists slightly, his brows twisted into Sichuan characters, and he said exhaustedly: "Lin Xian, your mother is like this now, do you have to be stubborn with her at this time? If you can be so ruthless now and continue to stimulate her, I don't care about her at all, I really feel very disappointed. In the future, it may be difficult for me to understand you, after all, it's not worth it. You don't understand us at all. "
Every word cut his heart out, Lin Xian looked at Lin Zhan's solemn and dejected appearance, fell into a dilemma, and suddenly collapsed.
She wanted to go back to find Xiao Wanqing, she wanted to go back and see her, but she was still worried about the two slaps she received in the morning, and she was crying and sad alone. However, she seemed to understand the meaning of Lin Zhan's words. On weekdays, when she had disagreements with Zhou Qin, Lin Zanduo would help her and be her ally. Just now, it can be seen that her father's attitude towards this matter is actually not so tough, not as disgusting as Zhou Qin, and even, it seems that there is still room for maneuver.
But if she really left, Lin Zhan would no longer be able to stand by her side and be considerate of her.
She thought of what Xiao Panpan said to her when she was asked to come back, "Lin Xian, I believe you can give me a blessed love", and her heart ached like a tear. She raised her head and took a deep breath, choked up and compromised: "Okay, Dad, I understand you, I will go back with you. But, I want to make a phone call."
The heaviness in Lin Zhan's heart eased a little, but he still refused vigilantly: "No, Lin Xian..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Xian interrupted him wearily: "It's not for Aunt Xiao, it's for Aunt Wen." She sniffed, feeling pain in her heart, and couldn't help crying and explained: " In the morning, my mother beat her. I don’t know how she is now. Dad, after so many years of friendship, don’t you really know what kind of person Aunt Xiao is? How self-blaming, wronged and helpless she should be now All of us have loved ones to rely on and will be loved, but what about her, she has nothing." At the end of her speech, she almost broke down in tears: "I want Aunt Wen to visit her, and I can't let her be alone. …”
When Xiao Wanqing needed herself the most, she couldn't be by her side, and even asked her former rival in love to take care of her. Lin Xian knew for the first time that powerlessness is such a hopeless feeling.
After all, Yu couldn't bear it, Lin Zhan turned away from looking at his daughter's crying face that broke his heart, and silently handed over his mobile phone.
Wen Tong was on his way to pick up Xiao Wanqing, when he received a call from Lin Xian, and heard that Lin Xian told her that Zhou Qin had slapped Xiao Wanqing twice, he suddenly became angry, smashed the steering wheel angrily, and blamed Lin Xian: "Lin Xian , When we were first together, what did you swear to promise? What have you done now? You kept saying that you would protect her, but she was the one who got hurt in the end. You started it first, and you forced her to be with you Together, why should everyone blame her in the end, and she has to bear everything, hasn't she endured enough?"
Lin Xian got into the elevator and leaned against the wall of the elevator, feeling like a knife was piercing his heart. She tilted her head back and wept silently. She no longer had the high-spiritedness, pride and composure she once had. She completely accepted Wen Tong's accusations, and murmured an apology: "I'm sorry, I didn't protect her well, I didn't do a good job, it's my fault."
She begged Wen Tong: "Aunt Wen, please help me take care of her during the few days I'm away." She also wanted to say: "Aunt Wen, help me tell her' don't be afraid, take care of yourself, Lin Xian has I'm working hard to fight for it, she will depend on you in her life, and she will definitely go back'."
However, the signal in the elevator was not good, and the call was automatically hung up, so she didn't have time to say it.
