He Chong glanced at Chiba sitting in the passenger seat from time to time, feeling very uncomfortable.

His mother's extremely disrespectful words kept hovering in his ears, and the damage caused to Chiba was difficult to make up, and he felt both guilty and helpless.

This is his family - his father weighs his feelings and marriage with the attitude of a businessman, and takes a paper agreement to avoid risks and protect interests. His mother ignored his face and spoke ill of his sweetheart, even the most rudimentary etiquette. For more than 20 years, family has been his only capital worth showing off, but now it has become more and more inferior. It is not difficult to imagine that he may be useless if he is separated from this family, but when it comes time to make a choice, he believes that he will still show courage.

Of course, he didn't know that his sister's "rebellion" and his mother's abnormality were caused by him. The seemingly unrelated situation is actually inextricably linked to him, but no one realizes that he is another victim as well. He Zhanting continued to hand over power, and Xin Mu avenged He Yina's grievances, and the resulting hostility and even hatred towards him was not controlled by him. In a way, he is a chess piece, and how he moves every step is driven by family interests, not family affection.

Jingle bell - the phone rang, and he looked at it and picked it up.

"Hey Dad, it's almost there...... What did you not say just now...... Okay, I see. ”

"I'm sorry." After holding back all the way, he finally chose to express his apology in the simplest three words.

Chiba came back to her senses from her contemplation, and she didn't know why.

"What?"

"I said I'm sorry, my mom just said those words were too much, don't take it to heart. She's been having a conflict with my dad lately, and she's not going to be angry, and her speech is unpleasant. ”

"It's nothing, it's me who should say I'm sorry, and I ran into her room recklessly, and no one would be happy."

"But it's too hurtful for her to talk like that, if you hadn't stopped her, I would definitely have had a good fight with her today."

Chiba rolled down the window slightly, and in order to prevent the wind from being too loud and affecting the conversation, He Chong slowed down.

"Actually, she's right, you really shouldn't like me purely on the terms. Everyone wants their children to find the right person, and this is understandable. ”

"Why do you have such an inexplicable idea!" He Chong was a little angry. Others can examine his feelings with this attitude, but Chiba cannot.

Chiba looked at him and suddenly felt that this was a man worth entrusting. His character is good at being reckless and domineering in small things, rich style, big right and wrong but unambiguous, and sticking to his upright values.

"Okay, it's okay if I'm wrong, don't dwell on it, I'm really nothing." She persuaded.

"Not really angry?"

"It used to be possible, but not now. Uncle Min once warned me that people who are too inferior are often too conceited, think about it, why should I be inferior, although I have no money, no appearance, no complete family, but I have an independent and sound personality, the ability to distinguish between right and wrong. I know what is good and what is beautiful, I know what fate has taken from me, and I thank God for what he has given me, and I don't feel that I am inferior. On the contrary, when your dad came out with the agreement today, I felt happier than you. If my mother hadn't been lying in bed well, she would have respected me and blessed me one day when she faced my emotional choices, instead of using such and such means to tie up feelings and interests...... Excuse me, am I talking a little too much? ”

Seeing that He Chong's eyes became dull and cloudy, she was a little sorry.

"No, you're right, absolutely. Uncle Min's words can also be said the other way around, people who are too conceited are often too inferior, and I am like this. Now that I think about it, what do I have to be angry about, the money is the job of the family and the family, and getting all this is not what I want the most, it is they who shoehorn it into me. I'm not afraid of your jokes, I actually didn't have any friends since I was a child, it's not that I'm indifferent, it's that others don't dare to make friends with people like me. is like Song Yingchen, he is my good buddy, but my family never thought of asking me to invite him to meet and have a meal, get to know each other, and listen to what kind of person I am and what troubles and worries I have from his mouth. I don't know why, my parents always felt that they were supreme, and that no one was useful or useless in their eyes, and they didn't know what it meant to be sophisticated. ”

"It's not that serious, don't talk about your parents, they just want the best for you."

"That's just what they think is good, not what I want. Chiba, I actually envy you very much, really, you can arrange your own life, but I can only make a small fuss, and I don't have any freedom at all. Don't look at how proud I am now, as long as my dad moves his fingers, there will be nothing left. ”

"Why don't you have freedom, you have a villa and can't stop running out to rent an apartment, and you haven't seen what your father does with you. I think he's just a little stricter, but he actually loves you in his heart, really. ”

"Hmph, that's because he's been arguing with my mom a lot lately and doesn't want me to see it."

"That's for your sake."

"Why do you keep talking to him?"

Chiba stuck out her tongue apologetically.

He Chong's mood suddenly fell, and he told a secret that surprised her.

"I don't want to see that it's just a surface, but I'm actually afraid of my mother...... Hurt me. ”

"Hurt you?"

"I was the child of my father and his mistress, and he was always afraid that my mother would not tolerate me. He is very insecure, and the people next to him are guarded, hey, and he is not afraid of neurasthenia. ”

"But even if your mother doesn't like you, she won't want to hurt you, your father is really suspicious."

"There are two sides to everything, and it is not entirely unreasonable for him to be suspicious. I remember when I was a few years old, I had a food poisoning, and I was sent to the hospital and the gastric lavage doctor issued a critical illness notice, but I was able to save my life. A few years after that, I heard them arguing through the door, and my dad scolded my mom for being a femme fatale, saying that she had poisoned my bowl. ”

"Ah, how is that possible!" Chiba gasped.

"I don't know, but I've never mentioned it to anyone. I have the impression that my mother has always been very good to me, and spoils me better than my father, but for some reason, every time I quarrel, my father will say that she is acting, pretending to be something or something, accusing her of being on the surface and behind the scenes, and confusing me. ”

"No, if your mother really wants to hurt you, how can your father tolerate her?"

He Chong shook his head uncertainly, his pursed mouth trembling slightly.

"As long as he needs my mother in his career, he can tolerate it. I'm actually not stupid, I've been obedient to my mother since I was a child, and my mouth is sweet, and I always make her happy, but I don't want my dad to be cranky. ”

"It turns out that you have known to read people's faces since you were a child." Chiba couldn't help but lament that his childhood was similar to his own in another way.

"Yes, acting is tiring. So I was thinking, there is actually only one person in the family who is the most real, and that is my sister. It's a pity that it didn't end well, as if my dad made an enemy. ”

"What do you mean?"

"She went out to start a company by herself, completely out of Ogu, and no one expected this day. She has been valued since she was a child, and my father has always been patient and more attentive to me, but I don't know why he cut her power. Now it seems that my dad's actions also have an element of acting. My mother has changed even more, in the past, she treated me like her own, always protected me everywhere, and even sometimes snubbed my sister, but now, when she sees me, she has a straight face, and the words in her mouth are more and more ugly...... Hey, don't talk about it, the more you talk about it, the more boring it becomes. ”

At this point, the journey is just over. After parking the car, He Chong sent Chiba back to the apartment and turned around to leave.

"Where are you going so late?" Chiba asked as she opened the door.

"Just now my dad called and said that he had something important to tell me, and I would go home tonight."

"I knew I was coming back by car, so I made you run again."

"You've done me a favor today, and I'll take care of it. Oh yes, throw that agreement away, it's so humiliating. ”

"Well, you drive slowly on the road."

He Chong sat sideways on the handrail of the stairs and slowly slid down: "Got it, bye." ”

Hearing the start of the downstairs start, Chiba went back to the house.

In fact, she still didn't tell He Chong - she is no longer as inferior as before, in fact, because of him.

Although she was ignored and humiliated in the He family today, she was not sad at all. Being able to walk in such a family gives her a deeper understanding of happiness. He Chong's past personality and temper that made her unacceptable have also found the source of the problem, and she is willing to face this man who is also making changes and getting better and better with a more tolerant attitude.

From a friend's point of view, of course.

Inside, she kicked off her shoes and reached for the light. There was a "click", but the light didn't come on.

"There's a power outage?" She was a little puzzled, took out her mobile phone from her pocket and barely lit it, looking for slippers to put on.

Just as the door was closed, a dark shadow rushed up from behind and snatched her phone, and before she could react, she felt something hit the back of her head.

Before the pain set, her consciousness began to blur. At the moment of falling to the ground, I saw a person sitting on the sofa, and two more people were standing next to him.

"Thief!" Then she thought, and then she didn't know anything.

When I woke up again, it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything. She tried to blink her eyes, but she felt as if there was a net covering the top of her head, and the pain in both temples was excruciating.

She found herself tied behind her back, her legs tied together, and she fell to the ground in a sideways position, her cheeks touching the ground cold and hard. She subconsciously let out a roar, but only heard a muffled sound similar to *, it turned out that her mouth had been sealed with sealing tape, and her nostrils were almost covered together.

Just as he was about to use his great strength to break free, footsteps sounded on the ground.

"Click", a trace of light changed from narrow to wide, and two people walked out of the light and shadow.

The first man in black to come in respectfully made a gesture of invitation and welcomed the other man in black in.

It is not difficult to see from the body that the first mover is a man, but the latter is difficult to distinguish the gender.

When they entered, all the lights in the room came on.

Chiba looked at it fixedly, and suddenly realized where he was, and he couldn't help but feel creepy.

That's right, this is the mysterious underground organization, and after all this time, they still found her as an interloper.
