Chapter 19 Human Destiny is Determined
Zhong Qiao finally told his son what he thought about Su Ziqi, "Why did she suddenly appear in your field of vision, you said that she was a student, how could she appear in such a high-end hotel, why did she choose Golden Harvest as her applicant, why did she choose Xinhai after being dismissed? I think these coincidences may be her intention, she is approaching you with a purpose!"
Zhong Qiao also said in a low voice in disbelief, "For revenge!"
Zhong Zimu listened to his father's words and did not immediately refute it, but was silent for a long time, and then said lightly, "Why does Ziqi want to take revenge on me? Is it because of you?"
Zhong Qiao sighed, "Maybe, maybe it's for her mother! I don't know, or something else!"
"Dad, since you yourself know that it is a mistake to ruthlessly abandon their mother and daughter, why were you so cruel in the first place?" Zhong Zimu's voice suddenly trembled, "I thought everything was not true, Ziqi's mother couldn't be your former lover, and you couldn't be Ziqi's father!
Zhong Qiao was surprised when he heard Zhong Zimu's words, "Who is her father?
"Isn't it?Ziqi's mother has not remarried since she left you, she hid in Chenghe by herself, and lived alone with Ziqi, you are not Ziqi's father, is there anyone else?" Zhong Zimu suddenly burst into tears, originally he still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that everything he saw with Ziqi yesterday was not the truth, but what he saw and heard today told him that everything was the truth of the facts!
"Ah He, Ah He didn't get married again? Didn't she just say that she was married and only had a daughter?" Zhong Qiao's face suddenly turned pale, and there was no blood on his lips.
"I don't know what she just told you, but Ziqi hasn't seen her father since she was born, it's a fact!" Zhong Zimu closed her eyes in pain.
"Ziqi, how old is she?" Zhong Qiao couldn't help but tremble.
Zhong Zimu sighed, "Ziqi, she is three years younger than me, and she is twenty-two this year!"
"Twenty-two ......" Zhong Qiao trembled his hands, trying his best to recall the painful memory, suddenly he seemed to be frosted on the eggplant, and withered, could it be that after he came back from the United States, when Zimu was more than two years old, he saw Soho for the last time, and then the two of them went to the Gardenia Villa together?
And since that time, he has never seen Soho again! Besides, Su Ziqi's surname is Su, and he has the same surname as Soho?!
"This ...... This...... Is this true?" Zhong Qiao seemed to be asking himself, as if he was talking to himself.
Zhong Zimu saw his father's expression and knew what his father remembered, and he even guessed that his father had already counted the days of Soho Huai Ziqi!
Zhong Qiao was panicked, Zhong Zimu was more and more sad, it turned out that everything was doomed more than 20 years ago, so why did God arrange for him to meet Ziqi? Just like him and Jiang Wan, they were obviously enemies, but they let them experience a life-and-death relationship!
Fate is really too cruel!
Zhong Zimu hugged his head in pain, trembling and said in a low voice: "Dad, why do you want to do this, why do you give birth to Ziqi, and why do you give birth to me! Why do you let the two of us meet in such an identity......? If you hadn't let Ziqi's mother go, maybe none of this would have happened today!"
"I ...... I don't want to ...... either" Zhong Qiao was in tears, he didn't expect Soho to give birth to a child for him! And he didn't know anything for more than 20 years, Soho lied to himself that she was very happy. Now that I heard Zimu say this, how hard it is for her to be a woman with a child? No wonder her face is so haggard......
Suddenly, Zhong Zimu woke up, shook his head and said: "Dad, we are not brothers and sisters, even if we are, I will not admit it, Ziqi is my lover, she is not my sister, I will definitely not give up her!
"Zimu, what are you talking about?!" Zhong Qiao also suddenly came to his senses, he didn't expect his son to be so persistent, knowing that the other party was his sister, and he didn't give up, but even if he didn't give up, they were brothers and sisters, and they couldn't let them be together if they said anything. What's more, Su Ziqi's purpose of entering Jiahe and approaching Zhong Zimu is still unclear, maybe it is for this reason that he came to take revenge!
But Zhong Zimu seemed to be iron-hearted, "Dad, I said I won't give up, I will never give up!"
"Nonsense, since you know about your relationship, how can it continue? If what you just said is true, then you are brother and sister, how can brother and sister be together, how can they get married? Isn't this a joke?" Zhong Qiao said angrily.
"However, we love each other first, and we know such things later! So we are lovers, not brothers and sisters!" Zhong Zimu was also furious, he hated his father's mistake for causing today's situation!
"What kind of lover, even if it is a brother and sister, you have to think about it in the long run, maybe it is because of this reason that Su Ziqi came to retaliate! Don't be too simple!" Zhong Qiao didn't agree with his son's point of view at all!
"Dad, how can you say that Ziqi, she is a simple good girl, and she has also suffered a lot of injustices during this period of time, do you know how hard she worked to raise her mother's medical expenses at that time? Several jobs a day, worked as a bookstore bookseller, worked as a restaurant waiter, and also worked as a foot-washing girl......" Zhong Zimu suddenly said sadly, he couldn't bear the pain when he thought of Ziqi's suffering.
Zhong Qiao sighed heavily, "The more she suffers, the stronger the revenge psychology that may arise, a person who has accumulated grievances and resentment is very prone to extreme thoughts, but this kind of thinking is deeply hidden in her soul, you can't see it, you only see the appearance!"
"Dad, I don't allow you to speculate about Ziqi like this, do you mean that because Aunt Su hates you, you let your daughter be the executioner? Do you believe that Aunt Su will joke about her daughter's happiness?" Zhong Zimu's face was clouded, and he was very dissatisfied with his father's words.
"No...... Don't ......" Zhong Qiao muttered to himself: "Ah He wouldn't do such a thing, it must be Su Ziqi, she feels that she has lost her father's love since she was a child, so she hates me, she ......"
"Dad!" Zhong Zimu's face was full of anger, "How can you think of Ziqi so much, how can you speculate on her thoughts with such thoughts? Do you think Aunt Su will not do such a thing, it is because you have always been affectionate to her, you think you know her, but have you ever thought that you don't know Ziqi, will you be a little unkind when you say this about her? Besides, she doesn't know these at all, how painful it is for her to know these things yesterday, do you know?"
"I'm not close to people?" Zhong Qiao smiled bitterly, "If the favor was so effective, Soho wouldn't have to be separated from me! I just trusted others too much at that time, causing the Jiahe Emperor to almost be buried in the hands of others! Once, Jiang Cheng was also a person who seemed to be very kind and very loyal to the Jiahe Emperor, but ......"
Zhong Qiao fell into mourning, if it weren't for his gullibility at the time, he and Soho would not be where they are today.
"All in all, Ziqi must not be what you imagined, so I don't want to hear your slander against her again!" Zhong Zimu was very disappointed with his father's performance, judging from the current situation, maybe Ziqi is really his father's daughter, but his first thought about this daughter was not guilt, it turned out to be fear, fear that she would take revenge!
"No, it's not my own imagination, Zimu, I told you on the phone last time, you may have forgotten!You know, our family often goes to visit a high-ranking monk, and he told me when you were two years old that you can't let you be with the woman you love, so I will do everything possible to let you marry Ruomei, because what, because I know you don't love her, alas-" Zhong Qiao hopes that his son can understand his good intentions.
Zhong Zimu frowned as he listened, he finally knew what Su Ziqi had heard from his father the night before he said goodbye without saying goodbye last time, it turned out to be these!
"A while ago, I went to the monk again and told him that the girl you loved at that time is no longer in this world, but according to the monk, the woman you love has returned to you, and I don't quite understand the meaning of his words, but the monk's will is very clear, since it is you who love, it is not suitable for you!" Zhong Qiao was very sure.
Zhong Zimu looked at his father helplessly, "Dad, I know what you mean to our family, it was also a monk who baptized me since I was a child, and I also respect him and your family's belief." But you can't take this as my mantra! I know that the suggestive language spoken by the monk is not entirely certain, and if you ask too much, he will also say, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, right?"
Facing his son's questioning, Zhong Qiao still didn't have the slightest hesitation, "Zimu, I know that you don't believe what I say, doubt my guesses, and even think that the words of the monk may not be accurate, but child, let me tell you, I didn't believe it when I was your age, but after the two things of the Jiahe crisis and the loss of Soho, I knew that I didn't seriously understand how naïve it was for the monk to say to me before!"
"I always thought that man will win the sky, but slowly I realized that man is destined by heaven!" Zhong Qiao took a sip of strong tea and swallowed the bitterness in his heart, "Your father is almost fifty years old, fifty knows the destiny of heaven, and it is not false at all!"
"Dad, no matter what you say now, I can't believe it!" Zhong Zimu didn't pay attention to his father's resignation at all.
Looking at his son who couldn't listen to his words, although Zhong Qiao was a little helpless, he also knew very well that young people's ideas and worldview were not fatalistic and could be persuaded by fatalism, after all, they had their own goals and ideas in the face of a vibrant world, and not admitting defeat and not accepting fate was the basis for their temptation and hard work. If they believe in fatalism so much now, wouldn't they be as old-fashioned as they are now?
However, the ravine in front of his son is bottomless, which Zhong Qiao is extremely worried about!
