It turned out that twenty years ago, after Cao Ruxue's mother Li Qianru met Cao Weiye, she abandoned Shi Zhaoting's father, and after the two divorced, Shi Zhaoting lived with his father.

His father was just an ordinary civil servant, and he died unexpectedly in a car accident on a business trip, when Shi Zhaoting was only four or five years old. At that time, Li Qianru had just remarried Cao Weiye, and for fear of affecting the relationship between husband and wife, she sent Shi Zhaoting to her grandparents' house, until Shi Zhaoting's grandparents also died a few years later.

There was no way, Li Qianru led him into the Cao family.

Cao Weiye concealed Li Qianru's marriage history before he got the old man's nod and consent, originally the old man didn't want to see Li Qianru, but now he is even more unhappy when he sees him bring back a son.

But thinking that there has been no successor in the family, and it is impossible for Cao Weiye and Li Qianru to divorce, the old man reluctantly accepted this fact.

But in the end, it's not surnamed Cao, even if they don't say anything, but the old man and the little aunt often put on a stinky face to show Li Qianru and Shi Zhaoting's mother and son, even those maids.

Unlike Li Qianru, who was eager to express her anger in her heart, Shi Zhaoting never expressed the slightest dissatisfaction in front of the Cao family.

On the contrary, although he is a man of few words, he is calm and introverted, and his academic performance and school performance are very good, perhaps because of this, his grandfather and sister-in-law have a slight change in their opinion of him.

Gradually, the servants at home will also call him "Young Master Zhaoting". As everyone knows, this is just the surface, and it is Cao Ruxue who really knows what Shi Zhaoting is like.

I remember when she was very young, in order to compete with Cao Ruxue for her grandfather's favor, she would secretly put grasshoppers in Cao Wanting's quilt, would rob her for a certain doll, and would be complacent for her grandfather's words of praise, which was her jealousy of Cao Wanting's childish expression.

But Shi Zhaoting was different, she saw him strangled a teddy dog she fed with his bare hands, and in his eyes, she saw hatred and hatred, as well as bloodthirsty hideousness.

He even grabbed her by the neck and threatened her that he would scratch her face if she dared to sue her parents, and she was terrified and had nightmares for a whole week.

He was eleven years old and she was six.

She thought that she would just hide it, but she didn't expect that as she grew older, Shi Zhaoting's evil deeds became more and more intense, until the years when he went to study in Meiguo, she was a little relieved, but the good times didn't last long, half a year ago he decided to return to China for development, and her nightmare began again.

After hearing these words, Cao Wanting suddenly realized: "No wonder the last time I went back to City B, I felt that you were different from when you were a child." ”

The impression of Cao Ruxue is much more brutal and willful, but Cao Ruxue is very timid and cowardly when she grows up, Cao Wanting has always treated her as acting, and now I think about it is probably because she has been bullied by Shi Zhaoting for a long time.

After a pause, she looked at Cao Ruxue apologetically: "I'm sorry, Ruxue, I misunderstood you." ”

"I don't blame you, I was ignorant when I was a child, I was the baby of the family at that time, and I was afraid that you would compete with me for favor, so I would make those excessive actions."

Cao Ruxue paused, and said: "Actually, Shi Zhaoting was fine before he went abroad, and I could bear it, but he changed a lot after he came back from studying abroad." ”

"How?" This made Cao Wanting feel confused.

"I can't tell...... In short, it makes people feel scared, I often see him secretly calling behind his parents' back, and I don't know who he called, his expression is terrifying. ”

"Didn't anyone find out when he hit you?"

Cao Ruxue shook her head: "When he was at home, he was polite and polite, and he looked dignified. Probably because he is rich and has status, rich and powerful people are always afraid of three points, even grandpa and sister-in-law have to give him three points. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Ruxue remembered one more thing: "By the way, Wanting, do you remember the dead cat you saw that night when you and your second uncle came to City B?" ”

"Hmm," Cao Wanting nodded, not understanding why Cao Ruxue suddenly mentioned that incident, suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and she asked with wide eyes, "Could it be that Shi Zhaoting did it?" ”

"No, it's me."

Cao Wanting was surprised, "It's you?" Why! ”

Cao Ruxue said truthfully: "It was more than two months ago, I accidentally overheard Shi Zhaoting's phone, knowing that he wanted to get involved with the Cao family, and later learned that you and the second uncle were going back to City B, I guessed what conspiracy he had, and specially found a cat that was crushed to death from the road to play a scene, originally intended to scare you away, but it had no effect." I was afraid that Shi Zhaoting would be suspicious, so I didn't dare to do anything anymore. ”

Cao Wanting opened her mouth wide in shock, unable to come back to her senses for a long time, she never thought that the truth of the matter was like this.

Rong Ye, who was silently listening to the conversation between the two, seemed to have found a suspicion and a breakthrough, frowned and said to Liang Sheng: "Liang Sheng, you immediately find someone to check Shi Zhaoting's resume in the past few years of studying in the United States." ”

"Okay."

When Liang Sheng went to call to arrange this matter, Rong Ye looked back at Cao Ruxue and said, "Shi Zhaoting must be looking for you everywhere, you live here temporarily, and then you move over when you find a more hidden place to live." ”

Cao Ruxue hesitated: "Can I go back to City B?" I miss my mom and dad. ”

Rong Ye said lightly: "I'm afraid not, if you go back now, it will be tantamount to throwing yourself into a net, if Shi Zhaoting can't find you, he will definitely go back to City B and wait for you to go home." ”

"......" Cao Ruxue bit her lip, her face was still very pale, and it seemed that she must still have lingering feelings about what happened last night.

Since learning about what happened to her, Cao Wanting's disgust for her has disappeared, and what has come to her heart at this time is sympathy and pity.

She immediately walked over, sat down beside Cao Ruxue, reached out to hold her slender hands, and said, "Ruxue, you bear with it for a while, and when Rong Ye solves Shi Zhaoting's matter, I will immediately send you back to City B." But you have to be patient, you have to keep it secret, you have to cooperate with our work, you know? ”

Cao Ruxue nodded, a look of apology appeared on her pale face: "Thank you, Wanting." ”

At this time, Liang Sheng came over after making a phone call and said to Rong Ye: "Rong Ye, I have already arranged the things you explained, if nothing happens, I will be able to get a reply from the United States tomorrow morning at most." ”

Rong Ye nodded with satisfaction, looked back at Cao Ruxue, and then looked at Liang Sheng, his eyes were deep: "I let her live with you temporarily, you have to ensure her safety." ”

Liang Sheng's calm black eyes suddenly flashed a trace of imperceptible waves, and then said, "I don't have any problems, but ...... The third lady came just now, and she had already seen Cao Ruxue. ”
