When Qin Xiaorou received Qin Lang's call, she was sitting in the restaurant with her little sisters ordering food for dinner. As soon as she heard that something had happened, Qin Xiaorou hung up the phone and hurried home.
As soon as she entered the living room, Qin Xiaorou saw Ji Qinghuai kneeling on the ground with her head bowed, Ji Xianzhi's face was cold, and Qin Lang beside her was full of worry.
When talking on the phone earlier, Qin Lang briefly told Qin Xiaorou what happened. Qin Xiaorou knew very well that there was almost a death in public, and Ji Xianzhi would never spare Ji Qinghuai lightly.
Qin Xiaorou walked up to Ji Qinghuai, and asked anxiously: "Qingqing, is there any misunderstanding?"
Ji Qinghuai didn't say a word.
This matter is indeed not a misunderstanding, he really wanted to kill Wei Shenglin, but it was not what he wanted.
He will end the competition, but he just doesn't want to let the Weisheng family continue to show off. He originally planned to defeat Weishenglin, lose another game and go to sleep, but he couldn't control himself when he made the second shot. Another level of consciousness seemed to appear in his mind, and his body was controlled by that level of consciousness, doing things he would never dare to do normally.
But no one would believe what he said, they would only think that he was using an absurd reason to try to get rid of responsibility.
Seeing that Ji Qinghuai did not speak for a long time, Qin Xiaorou's heart sank like a stone falling into the deep sea.
She has the same idea as Ji Xianzhi, she watched the child grow up, she knows exactly what kind of character it is, and she will never do anything that hurts someone's life without a reason, as long as Ji Qinghuai can give an excusable reason She can intercede for Ji Qinghuai.
She knew that Ji Xianzhi was also waiting for Ji Qinghuai's explanation, but all they waited for was acquiescence.
That being the case, Qin Xiaorou had nothing to say and could only stand aside. Ji Qinghuai was no longer a child who didn't know what to do. Now that something had happened, he had to be responsible for his actions.
Ji Xianzhi sighed softly, his eyes were more disappointed than angry, he walked slowly behind Ji Qinghuai, and asked aloud: "Ji Qinghuai, do you know your mistake?"
Ji Qinghuai took off the dark blue windbreaker, put it on the ground casually, lowered his head and said: "I cannot escape the responsibility for today's misfortune, let my father punish me."
"Okay." Ji Xianzhi raised his hand, and there was a long black whip in his hand, which was slightly hanging on the ground. Ji Xianzhi looked at Ji Qinghuai's thin back and took a deep breath.
"When you were an adult, I told you that, as a child of the Ji family, you have shouldered an inescapable responsibility from birth."
"I know you have no intention of participating in the fourth district, and Xiao Lang has already taken over this responsibility for you, so I didn't arrange your future too early, so I let you go so far, but today, you let me down too much."
Ji Xianzhi waved his hand, and a long black whip burst out through the wind, hitting Ji Qinghuai's back heavily. Ji Qinghuai's body could not help but rush forward. He immediately supported the ground with one hand to stabilize his figure, and straightened his body again.
"I have no respect for elders, I don't know the importance, I show my sharpness, I don't know how to restrain myself, I act recklessly, so stubborn!"
The long whip hit Ji Qinghuai's back one after another, each time the force was very heavy, the white shirt was stained with blood, and there were eye-catching whip marks under the tear in the clothes.
Ji Qinghuai's arms were hanging by his side, and he clenched his fists to endure the pain on his back. After dozens of whips, he didn't make a sound. Looking at Ji Qinghuai's back full of scars, Ji Xianzhi's hand holding the whip trembled slightly.
From the beginning to the end, Ji Qinghuai never begged him for mercy, nor did he use their blood relationship to soften his heart, but stubbornly endured his punishment.
Ji Xianzhi tightened his grip on the whip.
But if he is soft-hearted towards Ji Qinghuai now, and if something else happens in the future, who has the ability to protect him
Besides, there must be an explanation for this matter.
Ji Xianzhi raised his hand and whipped again.
Cold sweat broke out on Ji Qinghuai's body, and his face turned pale. Qin Lang saw that Ji Xianzhi didn't intend to stop, but he had nothing to do with the worries in his heart, so he could only look at Qin Xiaorou for help with his eyes.
How could Qin Xiaorou not feel sorry for Ji Qinghuai being beaten like this, but since he made a mistake, he should bear the consequences, so she can't intervene at this time.
Qin Xiaorou shook her head.
With a "snap", the long whip hit Ji Qinghuai's back again, this time Ji Qinghuai finally couldn't hold on, and his body fell forward and lay on the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Lang didn't want to worry about anything anymore, he rushed over to help Ji Qinghuai up, and used his body to protect him.
"Father, I can't fight anymore." Qin Lang's eyes were pleading.
Ji Xianzhi said coldly: "Get out of the way."
Qin Lang didn't move.
Enduring the pain in his body, Ji Qinghuai pushed Qin Lang with his hand, "Be obedient, get out of the way."
Ji Qinghuai pushed Qin Lang very lightly, he couldn't use much strength now, Qin Lang knew that Ji Qinghuai was going to be unable to hold on.
"I won't let it go." Qin Lang replied, then knelt down on his knees.
"Father, my brother's health hasn't fully recovered. If you continue the beating, something will happen. I beg you to be merciful. I'm willing to take the rest of the punishment on my brother's behalf."
Ji Qinghuai leaned on Qin Lang, "Don't make trouble."
He frowned, his voice very soft.
"Don't make trouble, I'm serious." Qin Lang picked up the windbreaker on the ground and put it on Ji Qinghuai, looked up at Ji Xianzhi, "Please allow me, father."
Qin Lang looked directly into Ji Xianzhi's eyes, his eyes did not hide or flicker, and he was determined to protect Ji Qinghuai. Ji Qinghuai half-closed his eyes, and exerted a little force on Qin Lang's arm, just wanting to push him away. open.
Regardless of whether it was his intention to kill Wei Shenglin or not, since he caused the disaster, he would naturally have to bear the consequences, and there is no reason to affect others. Qin Lang also received it again.
When clearing the cold poison earlier, Ji Qinghuai's body had already suffered a trauma, and it was too late to recover after two or three days. Now that the old illness has not healed and new injuries have been added, his already weak body cannot bear it, so he can only force it now. Hold on to yourself.
Ji Xianzhi also knew about Ji Qinghuai's current physical condition, Qin Lang's intercession made Ji Xianzhi's heart soften, and he couldn't do anything to Ji Qinghuai who was already scarred.
The two children in front of me, no matter how much they bicker and play, they always regard each other more than themselves. Qin Lang is willing to be punished for Ji Qinghuai, and Ji Qinghuai has never shirked his responsibility from the beginning to the end, and he is not willing to involve Qin Lang. They all have own responsibility.
Ji Xianzhi thought, this may be the only thing that is worth his comfort today.
The black long whip fell to the ground, Ji Xianzhi walked past Ji Qinghuai and Qin Lang, and walked up the stairs silently.
Qin Lang's heart let go with Ji Xianzhi's departure.
This matter is over.
The hand on his arm lost strength, Qin Lang looked down, and saw that Ji Qinghuai's half-closed eyes had been closed.
"elder brother!"
"Clear!"
Qin Lang grabbed Ji Qinghuai's arm, turned around and put it on his shoulder, Qin Xiaorou supported Ji Qinghuai, Qin Lang carried him up the stairs and back to the room.
Ji Qinghuai's injuries were all on his back, and he would be pressed to the wound while lying down, so he had to lie on his stomach. Qin Lang took off Ji Qinghuai's shirt, and put him on the bed lightly.
On Ji Qinghuai's back, there were countless whip marks criss-crossing. Under the numerous scars, there was no skin left. Blood flowed out from the open wounds, and then dripped onto the bed sheets. The blood was shocking.
Qin Xiaorou felt distressed, went out and brought in a basin of warm water, and carefully wiped off the blood on Ji Qinghuai's body with a towel, but just after she finished wiping, bright red blood flowed out from the wound again, so she could only continue to wipe carefully.
Ji Qinghuai's brows were furrowed all the time, but they didn't relax. He clutched the pillow with his hands and hummed softly.
Suddenly, Qin Xiaorou's eyes became wet, and tears welled up in her eyes, sliding down her cheeks silently.
In the early hours of the morning, Ji Qinghuai's consciousness gradually became clear, and he slowly opened his eyes. The injuries on his body have been treated, and Qin Lang even wrapped gauze around him, wrapping him tightly.
Beside the bed, Qin Xiaorou was always by Ji Qinghuai's side. Seeing Ji Qinghuai woke up, she said happily, "Qingqing, you're awake. Are you hungry? Do you want some water? Tell mom what you want to eat, and mom will make it for you."
In the past, every time after being beaten, Ji Qinghuai would wrong Baba and Qin Xiaorou acted like a baby, and Qin Xiaorou was always obedient to him, but this time Ji Qinghuai didn't have that thought, because when he opened his eyes, he noticed that Qin Xiaorou was fascinated. red eyes.
That's what it looks like after crying.
Ji Qinghuai was a little sad.
It's not that he didn't get into trouble before, but every time it was a small fight, it really made Ji Xianzhi anxious and he was beaten up, but this time he was beaten, but compared with before, Everything is different.
His parents have been together for many years, and their relationship has always been very good, and they are also very affectionate. As long as he can remember, he has never seen Ji Xianzhi and Qin Xiaorou quarrel, let alone Qin Xiaorou cry.
But today, because of his fault, Qin Xiaorou cried.
Ji Qinghuai lowered his eyes, recalling Ji Xianzhi's disappointed eyes.
This time, he really broke the old father's heart.
Ji Qinghuai felt guilty, and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Qin Xiaorou was still waiting for Ji Qinghuai to hold her hand and act like a baby with her, but she didn't want to wait for an apology, and her eyes were wet again when she was caught off guard.
But she didn't want to cry in front of Ji Qinghuai, so she suppressed her tears and said: "Mom knows you didn't do it on purpose, because Mom knows that my Qingqing has always been very good."
Ji Qinghuai wanted to raise his hand to help Qin Xiaorou wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, but he was in so much pain that he couldn't move.
Ji Qinghuai looked at Qin Xiaorou, at this moment, he suddenly understood something.
In fact, from the moment he was born, his whole life was not just for himself. Before Qin Lang appeared, he was the only child in the family. Ji Xianzhi was full of expectations for him, but what was waiting for him
As long as he can remember, he has been a street fighter who has beaten up the whole street. He knows that troubles are happening all day long, and he was often beaten by Ji Xianzhi when he was a child.
Later, there was a little guy in the family, and Ji Qinghuai was busy taking care of the kid every day before he changed his temper. Although he won't take the initiative to cause trouble when he grows up, he still fights a lot, and he firmly refused Ji Xianzhi to let him enter the fourth grade. District management arrangements.
He felt that it was a kind of bondage, and he wanted to live a little more freely and do what he liked as he wanted.
As Ji Xianzhi said, Qin Lang took over the responsibilities he should have assumed for him, and Ji Xianzhi never forcibly arranged his future. He has been living freely these years, but what did he get in exchange
His father, Ji Xianzhi, was once the most powerful helper under the God of War, and one of the heroes who integrated the troubled times of the past.
But what about him
Ji Qinghuai, in the eyes of others, he is useless except to be fierce and evil. Some people even think that it is a very shameful thing for Ji Xianzhi to raise such a son.
Today, Ji Qinghuai suddenly feels that there seems to be nothing wrong with this evaluation.
He used to think that Ji Xianzhi always said that he was not doing his job properly because he disliked him, and he always felt that his old father was too strict with him, but at this time Ji Qinghuai wanted to understand that Ji Xianzhi's not demanding is not a kind of indulgence.
Maybe his old father is thinking deeply at this moment, whether it is right or wrong to indulge him for so many years.
After thinking about it messily for a while, Ji Qinghuai wanted to get up and sit up, but the moment he moved, the wound on his body was affected, and he blurted out a cry of pain.
He was injured, Qin Xiaorou didn't dare to touch him, and hurriedly said: "Don't move around, just tell me what you want to do."
Ji Qinghuai could only lie on his stomach obediently.
He originally wanted to stage a wave of sensational scenes, telling Qin Xiaorou that he figured out what he should do, and was willing to take on his responsibilities, etc. The scene of mother and son hugging and crying again was absolutely touching.
However, he gave up.
It is difficult for him to even move now, and he still wants to hug and cry
Ji Qinghuai pouted.
Save it.
The room Ji Qinghuai is staying in now is Qin Lang's. In the past, Ji Qinghuai liked to come over to sleep with him when he was free. Now, in order to take care of Ji Qinghuai conveniently, when Qin Lang put Ji Qinghuai on his back, he put him directly in his room.
When Qin Lang came back from the shower, Qin Xiaorou got up and went back to her room, not staying to disturb the rest of the brothers. On the aisle, Ji Xianzhi opened the door of the study, just in time to meet Qin Xiaorou who was about to go back to the room.
Qin Xiaorou stopped, and looked at Ji Xianzhi for two seconds, "Qingqing has already woken up."
With a tired face on her face, she went back to her room after saying this.
Ji Xianzhi followed Qin Xiaorou, thinking about how to comfort her for a while, he beat Ji Qinghuai like that in front of Qin Xiaorou, although Qin Xiaorou didn't say anything, he must be very distressed.
Ji Xianzhi watched Qin Xiaorou walk into the room and followed slowly. He just walked to the door when a pillow flew towards him. Ji Xian subconsciously reached out to catch it, and saw Qin Xiaorou walking towards him, and closed the room calmly the door.
Ji Xianzhi stood at the door with his pillow in his arms and was stunned.
This…
Ji Xianzhi stood at the door for a while, and finally accepted the fact that he was kicked out by his gentle and considerate wife. He was about to go to sleep in the study, when he turned around, someone stood behind him.
Qin Lang.
Ji Xianzhi: "..."
The old father was still holding the pillow in his arms, and his face was a little bit uncomfortable.
Qin Lang turned around calmly.
I just came out to get something, I didn't see anything.
Qin Lang didn't take anything, so he ran away with oil on the soles of his feet.
If you can't provoke me, just hide.
The author has something to say:
Here are some less important things.
Because "God of War" has not yet been written, it may be a bit abrupt for some things to appear here suddenly.
The whole series of Meng Chong is actually two backgrounds, and only this book will intersperse some, because most of the people around Ji Qinghuai are people who survived that era, and so is Xie Yan, but compared to Ji Xianzhi, he is younger. Some.
Shen Xie is the most powerful person in this world setting, and also the person with the highest status. Xie Yan has the advantage in status, and it can probably be compared with Ji Xianzhi, but he is also a junior in front of Ji Xianzhi, which is probably the case. A relationship.
Don't ask why the setting is so messy, if you ask too much, you will cry.
