"He...he greeted me a few times..." Her voice was hoarse.
That hand kneaded the soft flesh under her chin, like stroking a cat.
"Well, what else?"
"There's nothing more..."
He laughed: "Greetings, how does he know you?"
She was so nervous that she missed this.
"He...he knew my childhood neighbor, and when he learned that I was from the same hometown as him, he greeted me a few more times..."
"Just because of this?"
"Um."
There was a long silence.
"Yinxiao, you still haven't learned your lesson."
"I said, if you don't behave, you will be punished."
He raised his hand as if to give some order. She touched his hand and begged: "Don't give me to others."
His hand paused, then he leaned over and patted her face, smiling: "How could I bear to give you to another man."
"Put it up." His voice was slightly louder.
Only then did she notice that Wei Ning was still standing behind the screen.
A bad premonition came over her and she looked toward the door.
His eyes widened instantly.
Father Shen and Mother Shen were tied up hand and foot and dragged in like chickens and ducks by Wei Ning.
Father Shen and Mother Shen had coarse cloth stuffed in their mouths. In the evening, they were dragged out of the house by a man of unknown origin and thrown on a fast horse. After a bumpy journey up to this point, they had only breath left. Now that they saw Wei Cheng and Shen Yinxiao, they suddenly felt aroused again. He lost hope, but when he saw Wei Cheng's face, he became inexplicably frightened. He could only widen his eyes in despair and make a whimpering sound for mercy.
Father Shen looked at Shen Yinxiao, and then looked at Wei Cheng begging for mercy. The latter didn't even bother to look at him, his eyes were fixed on the confused woman. She didn't seem to understand why he suddenly wanted to do something to his parents. Come.
"They said, you made a promise to someone before. What was his name? Jiang Xingzhou, right?"
"You wrote a letter and asked Zhang Yao to send it to Chang'an for you and give it to him, right?"
"What did you say when you believed it?"
Father Shen collapsed on the ground and kept kowtowing, as if he was repenting for his daughter's wrong behavior.
But what's wrong with her? She's obviously right! She just wrote a few innocuous words in the letter, and she never did anything to feel sorry for him!
"I just asked him how he was doing now, and then said a few words about the current situation of my family." She took a shaky breath and explained calmly.
"Just?" He smiled ferociously: "Then why, in his reply to you, he asked you to go to Chang'an to find him."
The hand holding her chin was so hard that the entire jaw seemed to be broken.
The man's voice was gritted: "Yinxiao, I told you, I hate people lying to me the most."
"What Chang'an..." She shook her head and explained vaguely: "I didn't let him pick me up, you misunderstood me..."
"Shut up!" he yelled sullenly, veins bulging on his forehead.
"Why did you arrest my parents..."
"What to do?" He sneered: "Of course I want to punish you. I have raised you for so long, so naturally I can't bear to let you die like this. But as parents, living is a waste of food."
Wei Ning brought the bucket filled with water in, grabbed the back of Father Shen's head, and pushed him into the water.
Father Shen screamed and struggled, but the struggle was in vain, water splashed everywhere, and Wei Cheng frowned in disgust.
Shen Yinxiao screamed and jumped out of bed, but Wei Cheng pinched his wrist, pulled it back hard, and pressed him into his arms.
"ah--"
Shen Yinxiao's eyes were red, and the sound of water was especially obvious at night. She desperately wanted to get rid of his confinement, but her chin was pinched tightly by his hands. Just like this, she was helpless.
"Don't kill him! Don't kill him! Please!"
She cried, grabbed his hand with both hands, and begged for mercy: "I will tell you everything, you asked me what I said, I was wrong..."
"It's too late." He said coldly, "I gave you a chance."
"Wei Ning...don't..."
Wei Ning tilted his head, avoiding her pleading gaze.
Mother Shen was dying and struggled to crawl over. With tears streaming down her face in her cloudy eyes, she watched with despair as her husband drowned.
"I hate you so much..." She hit his chest with her elbows desperately. In her opinion, the strength was just like scratching an itch, and her words were incoherent: "Let my dad go... Please, I was wrong..."
"hate me?"
He didn't understand and smiled: "I gave him several lives. Many times he was half dead, but I asked people to give him a breath of relief. He even accepted my money and ignored you. Now I just take back the life I gave him, and you will hate me until you die."
After all, he is an ignorant white-eyed wolf.
But it doesn't matter, he likes unruly pets.
After all, life is long, and he has plenty of time to spend with her.
The sound of water gradually subsided.
Finally it was completely quiet.
Shen Yinxiao's heart was completely dead.
Slumped down on his lap.
Her heart was completely dead.
Her father is dead.
She no longer has a father.
She said she was dead. She didn't even say the last words to him. She was drowned alive right in front of her eyes by the man who had slept with her countless times.
Why is life so mean?
Mother Shen sobbed and howled, and finally lost her breath, rolled her eyes, and fainted.
The man's hand that was imprisoning her finally let go, and she fell to the ground to help her mother who fainted.
Seeing that she didn't even look at him, Wei Cheng's anger, which had subsided, suddenly surfaced again.
"Get up," he ordered.
The girl turned a deaf ear and her tears fell one by one on the ground and on the back of her hands.
He stood up, pulled him up, threw him on the bed, and waved: "Take everyone down."
The bodies of the fainted Mother Shen and Father Shen were dragged down.
She stood up softly, got out of bed, and was about to follow him, but was grabbed by him and thrown onto the bed.
She still stood up without giving up, but this time, he pinned her down on the bed.
She no longer even wanted to kill him.
There was always an unreal and illusive feeling, as if her father was not dead yet, but he was still alive and well just now, so why did he die? She couldn't accept it and had to go and see.
Wei Cheng looked at her like a zombie and frowned: "Where are you going?"
He could even ask such a question.
"I'm going to stay with my mother..."
"Also, my dad...my dad still needs to be buried." Suddenly, the high and low chirping of cicadas came to her ears. It was so noisy that she couldn't hear what the man in front of her said. She could only vaguely hear what the man said. I saw his beautiful lips opening and closing with a calm expression.
She pushed him and continued walking out.
The man's face darkened, he picked her up and threw her to the back of the couch.
"Where's my mother, do you want to kill her too?" She finally regained her consciousness.
He was stunned and silent for a moment: "Of course not."
"That's good." She actually laughed.
This smile was too dazzling, desperate and sad, and he suddenly felt a little scared. He frowned, looked down at her, and suddenly stretched out his hand to touch her face, trying to smooth her smile away.
"He wrote a letter and asked Zhang Yao to deliver it, right?" the girl asked hoarsely.
"Um."
Seeing that she no longer struggled, he nodded lightly, suddenly became bored, and lay down next to her, hands touching, shoulders touching.
"Can I go see my mother tomorrow?" She said calmly: "She is very frightened. If the general doesn't want to kill her now, it's best for me to go see her, otherwise she won't be able to bear the blow."
Silent for a long time.
"Um."
"If I don't leave, can I leave my mother alone?"
"Can."
"Okay." Tears flowed silently along her temples into her black hair.
"Go to sleep first."
The man was silent for a moment and said.
The girl's nose was sore, and she whimpered for a long time, but her voice still sounded sour and crying: "Okay."
There was no more words between the two of them.
Wei Cheng closed his eyes and breathed evenly. Shen Yinxiao thought he was asleep. Then he finally relieved his tense shoulders, suppressed his voice, and started sobbing like a little beast huddled alone in the corner licking its wounds. The world is so big that there is no place where she can feel safe and secure.
The pillow was already half wet.
A hand suddenly attached itself to her twitching heart. Her body trembled and the hand froze.
She didn't know what he wanted to do.
Fear and sadness caused her internal organs to twitch. She suppressed her tears and explained: "I...can't sleep...I'm sorry, maybe I don't want to sleep very much..." .”
The man beside him didn't speak, and his hand didn't move.
The girl's sadness spread almost everywhere, and he suddenly felt at a loss.
Do you regret it?
There is no word regret in his dictionary.
time heals everything.
