But Huo Xiao's inner demons are far more difficult to crack than Zheng Yuan's.
At the very least, the Zheng family has been trapped for several generations, and it has become a habit in their hearts, and they will not be afraid of it.
Even before practicing this set of exercises, they have already tacitly accepted such a tragic fate. In some ways, they are the people who least care about these consequences.
But Huo Xiao is different.
He was already under considerable psychological pressure.
As far as his character is concerned, he can accept his own failure, but he will never accept his cowardly escape.
But fear will not disappear with his reluctance, it will only wear down his will day after day until he turns into a shrinking coward.
By then this person will really be useless.
Lin Mengya calmly pulled up a stool and sat beside Huo Xiao's bed.
"Did you think that I would say some words of comfort to you next, or at the worst, I should use some provocation methods to make you regain hope in life?"
"Oh, innocent! You are not a child anymore, and I don't need to coax you."
"Do you think you can use this as an excuse not to avenge your relatives now that you are out of control? Let me tell you, you are totally wrong!"
"While you are giving up on yourself here, your enemies are making continuous progress. Then one day, they will find that your remaining relatives are still alive. Maybe they will be kind for a while, or think that you are useless, so they will let you go. you."
"But there is another possibility that they want to eradicate the problem, so you can only watch your parents die tragically in front of you."
"It's a pity that you can't do anything, you don't even dare to take action. Because you are afraid of losing control, afraid that you will lose yourself again and become a murderous maniac. By then, your parents may not die in the hands of your enemies, but die in the hands of your enemies. It’s in your hands.”
"Then how much you should blame yourself! So, since you know that there is a possibility of failure, it is better not to do it. At the very least, you can keep yourself awake enough to accept the result of failure, instead of going crazy and betting on a vague victory. possible."
The more she spoke, the more she spoke. Almost every word that came out of her mouth pierced Huo Xiao's heart accurately, like countless small needles, causing him heart-wrenching pain.
"That's enough!" Huo Xiao finally couldn't control himself, turned over and shouted to Lin Mengya.
"What do you know? You don't know anything! People like me, people like me..." He looked at his hands, and there was a sadness in his eyes that was so rich that he couldn't get rid of it.
"If I go crazy, who will avenge my grandfather and the others? But if I stop practicing martial arts, then I won't even have a chance to take revenge!"
He covered his face, looking a little lonely and helpless for a moment.
Lin Mengya squinted her eyes and thought, sure enough!
Huo Xiao must have known that something was wrong with his martial arts!
Maybe it’s because from now on, I can’t be even half as diligent, maybe I can’t use it easily anymore, otherwise there is a risk of going crazy.
That's why he was hit too hard and couldn't accept it for a while.
It was indeed a devastating blow to him.
But in Lin Mengya's opinion, this kind of thing is nothing.
"Look at you." She softened her expression and her tone was no longer so sharp. Instead, she seemed very kind and concerned.
"Since we are all friends, just tell us if you have any difficulties, and everyone can help you think of a solution. Even if it is a dead end that cannot be solved, then at least the two of us can have a drink with you and cry for a while. Two games are better than holding it in your heart alone."
Huo Xiao looked up at her, wondering what he was feeling.
Surge.
The title that had become awkward became natural and no longer forced.
"Mom." He called Aunt Fang in a deep voice, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Aunt Fang was already in tears.
She knew that the sound of "Niang" meant that the child truly accepted her.
After fifteen years of painful separation, her child finally returned to her without grudges and recognized her as his mother.
For a moment, Aunt Fang had no other way to express her current mood except crying.
Huo Xiao awkwardly wiped his mother's tears with his sleeves.
"Mom, it's okay. Gong Ya said she would help me find a solution. Besides, even if I give up all my efforts, I still have other skills. In the future, I will never let our mother and son be separated."
Aunt Fang nodded, and then she burst into laughter. She held her son's hand happily and said, "You really have to thank Xiaoya and the others. If she hadn't been by my side to take care of me these days, I wouldn't have been able to survive." That’s the day.”
Huo Xiaozhen nodded.
In fact, although he still had other thoughts about Lin Mengya, he had already thought about it.
The only person Gong Ya cares about is Murong Xi.
Even if he could compete with the other party, he couldn't make Gong Ya's heart shift to him.
Rather than being a villain in vain, it is better to be honest and frank. At least, he can preserve his own dignity and prevent him from turning against Gong Ya.
Besides, as long as the base of the wall is well guarded, it might be possible to dig it out one day.
He has enough patience and can afford to wait.
Fang Rao saw that his son really thought about it, and he relaxed a lot. He asked his son about his family affairs.
"By the way Xiao'er, I told Xiaoya that you were out on business, right? If you come back this time, it won't delay your business, right?"
In fact, Aunt Fang doesn't like to inquire about young people's affairs.
Although Xiaoya also said that there would be some dangers on Huo Xiao's side, Fang Rao still did not stop him.
When the child gets older, even if she wants to take care of it, she won't be able to take care of it for a few years. It's better to let him go out on his own. At least he has a trustworthy partner, and maybe he can really make a career.
Therefore, although she was worried about her children, she still fully supported them.
Huo Xiao held his mother's hand with his big hand.
Although these hands have been pampered for many years, they are no longer young.
"It doesn't matter, I've done everything I need to do. I came back this time to celebrate the New Year with you, but something happened on the way and I delayed it for a few days."
He suddenly remembered that he had brought back some gifts for his mother and the others.
It's just that he was too impulsive at the time. In the excitement, he didn't know where to throw everything, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
These gifts were carefully selected by him.
"It'll be good to come back. I'll feel relieved if I can see you safe."
Aunt Fang was beaming. She always felt that her son had grown up and she was happier than receiving any gift.
"By the way Xiao'er, can you stay at home for a few more days this time?" Aunt Fang's eyes were full of expectation, "I'm not not letting you go out, I mean, if it's convenient for you... . ..”
"Okay, I will stay with you for a few more days." Huo Xiao rushed ahead of Aunt Fang and agreed proactively.
Aunt Fang's eyes turned red again, and she said in a heavy nasal voice: "Okay, okay! Then you can stay at home and play mahjong with me for a few more days!"
