Chapter Thirty-Eight: Awakening

Qin Fengyan ignored Lou Xiaomin's question, and his misty and sad pupils revealed a faint sorrow: "... If there was no late autumn, perhaps, she and I would have become a couple that everyone admires. Oh, sometimes I feel that my life is like a race, I practice hard, keep fighting, just for the final victory and applause, but when I really surpassed other opponents and crossed the finish line, I realized that the victory and applause I have been chasing are just a mirror, when the song is over, I am still a lonely runner..."

"Isn't life like that? I haven't experienced it, and I'll never know what I really want. Lou Xiaomin sighed desolately: "Especially dead-eyed people like you and me, they often have to wait until they are completely lost before they wake up." ”

Slightly stunned, Qin Fengyan's voice was uncertain: "Auntie, you?"

Lou Xiaomin raised his head, and his beautiful eyes showed a faint melancholy: "I never told you that my marriage to your uncle-in-law was not of my own volition. ”

"What..."Qin Fengyan's eyes flashed with surprise.

Lou Xiaomin smiled bitterly: "You also know that your uncle-in-law is many years older than me, and he looks, how to say, not so handsome, now that we are all old, it is better, when I was young, I walked out with him, like a father and daughter more than like a husband and wife." ”

Qin Fengyan lowered his eyelids and was noncommittal.

"Your uncle-in-law said that the first time he saw me was at a dinner party, I didn't have much impression, but he remembered it very clearly, he said that he really fell in love with me at first sight, at first sight, he knew that in the following decades of life, the person he wanted to be with him day and night was me, and it could only be me, and at that time, I already had a very good fiancΓ© by my side, regardless of family background or appearance, we were very compatible, I loved him very much, I thought he loved me the same, until, your uncle-in-law appeared, he used all the huge power he had, put pressure on the man's family, forced them to take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, and then, he pointed the finger at your grandfatherAt first, your grandfather was reluctant to marry me to such an old and ugly man, but at that time, your uncle's power was really big and terrifying, and your grandfather lost the upper hand in several battles, and in the end, he had to give me to him in order to protect himself. ”

"Do you hate your uncle?"

When I first married him, I really hated him, hated him to the point of wanting to kill him, no, I didn't want to, but I really did, that night, I woke up in the middle of the night, and looked at this man lying next to me who ruined my life's happiness and forcibly possessed my body, I took a fruit knife from the kitchen and stabbed it viciously. One knife, two knives, three knives, your uncle-in-law blocked with his left hand, I cut his left hand, he stretched out his right hand, I cut off his right hand, I don't remember how many knives I cut, I only know that the bed is full of blood, at that time I was like crazy, I don't know where the strength and courage came from, I just want to die with him. ”

"...Your uncle, in order to protect himself, had no choice but to grab a knife with me, but inadvertently, scratched me, the severe pain in my body, so that I had fallen into madness to wake up, but, that kind of sobriety is short-lived, when I realized that the wound on your uncle's body was caused by me, I collapsed, I screamed, I don't know how to deal with myself, I can't accept such a cruel and crazy self, I curled myself up in the corner, I shook my head in horror, crying like all mentally deranged people, screaming, I even thought I was really going crazy, at that time, your uncle-in-law ignored the wound on his body, and stumbled to meIgnoring my punches and kicks, he desperately took me into his arms and said to me over and over again: Don't be afraid, you see, I'm fine, you didn't hurt me, don't be afraid, you see, I'm not good? Don't be afraid, with me, it's fine, don't be afraid......"

Lou Xiaomin was getting higher and higher, and finally couldn't hold back his excitement and burst into tears.

Qin Fengyan clenched the cup in his hand, the wall of the cup was no longer warm and slightly cool, and the coolness gradually penetrated into the bottom of his heart, crisscrossing and crisscrossing. The wealthy family is as deep as the sea, the world only sees its glamorous appearance, and has never experienced that under the glamour, there is a bloody and tearful, cookie-cutter empty life, such a life, there are many similar helplessness, love and hatred, however, the damage they cause is different, and the damage may be diluted in time, maybe forever.

Waiting until the mood calmed down, Lou Xiaomin continued: "Your uncle-in-law was seriously injured, and he lost too much blood, and he was recuperated in the hospital bed for a while before he could go to the ground again, during this period, I was sent to a nursing home, and your mother rushed over from the United States after receiving the news, and took care of me day and night, until your uncle-in-law recovered and was discharged from the hospital, I was still in a daze, and the two of them took me home, and it took me more than two years to fully wake up, I still remember that the day I woke up, your uncle-in-law hugged me and cried like a helpless child." At that time, I realized that he was the one who loved me the most. After that, I began to stop thinking he was ugly, and I stopped resisting him, and even tried to understand him. ”

Lou Xiaomin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and finally showed a happy smile: "For more than 30 years, your uncle-in-law has taken considerate care of me and taken care of me, and he made me feel that if I hadn't married him back then, it would have been the regret of my life." ”

Qin Fengyan turned his head, looked at Lou Xiaomin and smiled: "To be able to marry the woman he loves as his wife, my uncle-in-law is really lucky!"

Lou Xiaomin looked at Qin Fengyan's eyes and shook his head slowly: "I'm telling you this, not to show off how happy I am, nor to flaunt how much your uncle-in-law loves me, I just want to tell you that you are still young, don't make up your mind too early, the joys and sorrows of the moment can't represent anything, the important thing is your heart, if you really love that girl and are really willing to take care of her for the rest of your life, then just like your uncle, use all the power you have to fight for it."

Qin Fengyan smiled bitterly: "My uncle-in-law and I are different, you just don't love him, but Wanqiu hates me to the bone, my uncle-in-law has enough strength to win you, and I, after the Qin Tian Consortium has experienced such a heavy blow and turmoil, at best, I can only have a tie with He Mutian." ”

"So, you should take your uncle's advice and run the casino with him. ”

Qin Fengyan stared at Lou Xiaomin's dark pupils tightly, and laughed: "What you said just now was also what your uncle-in-law asked you to say to me." ”

Lou Xiaomin didn't dodge or dodge, and looked straight back at him: "Yes, but what I said is true, I know what you're worried about, I just want to tell you, I won't hurt you, after your mother died, if it weren't for your grandfather's refusal to let go, your uncle and I would have taken you to Malaysia a long time ago, in my heart you are like my child, I would rather be hurt myself than hurt you, your brother-in-law is the same, he knows that you are the person I care about the most, he will only help you, never harm you." Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he has the intention to harm you, with your strategy and intelligence, you may not know who will lose in the end. ”

Qin Fengyan suddenly felt very tired, he put down the milk cup in his hand, stretched out his hand, and rubbed his temples: "Auntie, it's not early, you should go back to your room to rest, I'm also tired, what's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow?"

The overly obvious eviction order made Lou Xiaomin slightly embarrassed: "... Okay, you can rest early, and we'll talk tomorrow if you have time. ”

"Good night. Qin Fengyan said softly.

Lou Xiaomin patted his nephew's arm and said goodnight before walking to the door. Before going out, she turned back again and looked at Qin Fengyan, with a look of desire to speak.

Qin Fengyan just didn't see it, and began to sort out the documents on the bed.

Qin Feng said. Lou Xiaomin's faint voice came from the door, and Qin Fengyan's hand to sort out the documents paused: "Before going to bed tonight, I hope you can seriously think about it, after all, the late autumn is in **, it is not your sphere of influence, but it is a place where her father can call the wind and rain, as far as I know, her father seems to hate you to the bone, now, let alone fighting, even if you want to meet, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!"

Qin Fengyan smiled faintly and continued to sort out the documents: "It won't be too long, I will let the logo of the Qin Tian Consortium fill the streets and alleys of the entire world." ”

"Won't it be too long, how long, five years or ten years? When the time comes, that girl is afraid that she will marry someone else's wife a long time ago, even if... Even if you succeed in the end, your serious business may not be able to contain He Mutian, the casino is different from any business, it is a black and black world, if you don't join, you will never know the rules of the game, and you will never be able to coerce He Mutian. ”
