Chapter 3 Only by Living Is There Hope
As soon as he saw Cheng Xiaoyue, he couldn't help but speak: "Your mother is dead, you are still in the mood to climb a man's bed here, Cheng Xiaoyue, you still have to be shameless!"
She was stunned as if she had been struck by lightning: "Dad...... What did you say, Dad? β
"You unfilial daughter! Your mother didn't see you all night last night, she was anxious and worried, and she had a heart attack this morning! I didn't expect you to sleep with a guy here! Cheng Wei repeated it again, and his words seemed to mean that this farce was completely intentional by Cheng Xiaoyue.
At this time, Cheng Xiaoyue didn't have the heart to care about the pitiful or disdainful eyes of the people in the room, she knew that her mother had heart disease, but she had been to the hospital a few times before, but the doctor said that her mother's condition was very mild, and she didn't even need medicine to maintain it. How could she believe that her mother, who was healthy yesterday, was suddenly gone?
No, Mother will be fine, she will be fine!
Cheng Xiaoyue propped up her body and tried to get out of bed, but her half-naked back happened to be exposed to the slightly cold air.
Lin Yichen's eyebrows frowned slightly, and his hand quickly pulled his shirt and draped it over her.
She tugged at the collar of her shirt and ran out barefoot on the cold floor.
It seemed that if she ran faster, she would be able to snatch her mother's life back from the hands of death.
In the guest room, Cheng's mother Su Xiumei's body has moved from the ground to the bed, and there are several uniformed policemen standing at the door, and the forensic doctor is busy in the room.
Cheng Xiaoyue didn't know where she got the strength, she ran into the burly policemen and rushed into the room, crouched beside her mother, and slapped her mother's already stiff body.
"Mom! Mom, wake up, get up and see Yueyue! Mom, get up! Cheng Xiaoyue couldn't help crying loudly, tears slid down her cheeks and fell to the back of Su Xiumei's hand, but her closed eyes could no longer be opened.
Lin Yichen, who was following behind, stood at the door, his eyes locked on Cheng Xiaoyue's body, and his eyebrows tightened more and more.
That back is so thin and helpless that it makes people feel the urge to run over and hug her into their arms.
Cheng Xiaoyue's mournful wail echoed throughout the Lin family's mansion, and Mother Lin at the door immediately pinched her nose in disgust when she saw this, and muttered in a low voice: "It's really unlucky, it's the first time that our house has died."
Lin Weiwei lowered her eyebrows and said this sentence quietly, and then slowly walked behind Cheng Xiaoyue, raised her hand on her shoulder, and comforted her softly: "Yueyue, godmother, she walked very peacefully, don't blame yourself too much, the main responsibility for this matter is not yours." She turned to look at the medical examiner, "My godmother, what is the reason for her death?" β
The man in a white coat pushed his eyes, and most of his face was hidden in the mask, "Miss Lin, this lady died of a heart attack, caused by an accident." β
Cheng Xiaoyue was out of breath crying, and her heart was even more sour when she heard this.
If I hadn't gone to the wrong room last night, my mother wouldn't have worried about herself, and she would have passed away.
My father is right, I am an unfilial girl!
Filled with remorse, looking at Su Xiumei on the bed at that moment, Cheng Xiaoyue really couldn't wait to go with her mother.
"This young lady, it's casual to mourn." The forensic doctor pushed the metal-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose again, and his face was full of lightness: "We need to take this lady's body for a deep autopsy, please understand."
"No, you can't!" When Cheng Xiaoyue heard this, she hurriedly protected her mother's body, and her choked voice trembled extremely much: "No one can take my mother away, I want to take her home."
The forensic doctor glanced back without a trace, and after his eyes lingered on Lin Weiwei's face for a short time, he turned back to Sven's mouth and said, "This young lady, it was your father's intention to take your mother to the autopsy, I'm sorry."
After speaking, he gently motioned to a few people at the door and carried Su Xiumei's body out.
"Momβdon't touch my mom!" Cheng Xiaoyue chased out like crazy, and the center of her foot pierced into the sharp stone without realizing it.
The people behind her looked at her like a madman, and even Cheng Wei had disgust written on his face.
Gu Xiayang's Adam's apple rolled for a while, and he suddenly felt very irritable.
"Brother Xia Yang, let Xiaoyue be quiet for a while, maybe it won't be so uncomfortable if you cry." Lin Weiwei discovered Gu Xiayang's abnormality almost immediately, and reached out and pulled Gu Xiayang's sleeve to stop him from leaving with a small force.
Gu Xiayang looked at Cheng Xiaoyue's trembling body, his brows furrowed tightly, and he wanted to follow several times, but he was restrained by reason.
He hadn't figured out what kind of attitude he was going to use to face her after seeing her sleep with other men all night.
Lin Yichen witnessed all this, and an extremely sarcastic smile was drawn on his thin lips.
Heh, it's interesting what has happened since yesterday.
At this moment, Cheng Xiaoyue, who was running in a hurry, suddenly fell heavily on the bluestone path.
Lin Weiwei's hand was thrown away by a fierce force, Gu Xiayang just took a step, but someone behind him rushed out one step ahead of him.
Lin Weiwei withdrew her hand to her side, and watched Lin Yichen walk towards the person who fell to the ground with far-reaching eyes.
The sturdy and slender arm slowly fell, and Cheng Xiaoyue, who seemed to have lost her soul, was tightly hugged into her arms.
Tsk, it's true love.
Lin Weiwei raised her eyebrows, and said lightly as if inadvertently: "I've never seen my brother be so careful with any girl, Xiaoyue is really lucky, what do you say, Brother Xia Yang?"
Gu Xiayang pursed his thin lips and said nothing, his eyes were fixed on Cheng Xiaoyue in Lin Yichen's arms.
At this time, Cheng Xiaoyue had no strength at all, and collapsed on Lin Yichen's chest, and the whole person's spirit seemed to be drained away with the departure of her mother.
"Mom, why don't you take me with you......" She stared blankly at the high roof of Lin Jiashuo's house, where white doves of peace flew by, and there was a white expanse in front of her.
If you jumped from there, what color would it be*?
"Woman, you don't want to kill yourself, do you?"
Cheng Xiaoyue raised her tearful eyes and looked at Lin Yichen, digesting his words very slowly.
"Woman, things are not so bad that they are, only when you live can there be hope." Lin Yichen didn't know what was wrong with him today, but he had the patience to talk to a woman like this.
Cheng Xiaoyue seemed to have heard something funny, the corners of her mouth were slightly involved, and her eyes were dilated: "Hope? My mom is dead, what else do I want to do? β
Could it be that my mother will come back from the dead?
"That's why you need to be strong." Lin Yichen's chin rested against the top of her soft hair, and his hand hugged her tightly: "Your life not only belongs to yourself, but also to your dead mother, and you still carry her hope, do you understand?"
Cheng Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, lifted her pale lips, and looked up at Lin Yichen's unfamiliar but extremely handsome face: "Why are you telling me this?"
The man laughed for a moment, and his originally unruly eyes shone as bright as stars: "Because you are now my woman."
Cheng Xiaoyue didn't think about it, turned his head and opened his mouth to bite his wrist on his side.
She bit so hard that the tip of her tongue instantly filled the smell of blood, blood and tears, and her suppressed sobs trembled with the sound of the wind.
Lin Yichen also let her bite silently, until she finally let go of her teeth, he hugged her tightly, and cursed in a low voice in her ear: "Little white-eyed wolf, are you comfortable now?"
Cheng Xiaoyue only felt that the breath that had been held in her throat for a long time was finally released, she still kept crying, the wind blew the wide white shirt on her body, and the tears hit her chest and dried quickly.
There were fine pieces of sunlight wandering overhead, and she saw Lin Weiwei standing on the high steps, holding Gu Xiayang's hand, with a warm smile on her bright face.
β¦β¦
The days when he was busy with his mother's funeral were the most difficult times in Cheng Xiaoyue's life.
The final conclusion given by the hospital that the mother's death was due to a heart attack, Cheng Xiaoyue had to choose to believe this fact.
The family's savings and her salary are kept by her father, and whenever Cheng Xiaoyue asks Cheng Wei for the money he wants to do for the future, Cheng Wei's face is ugly as if he is constipated.
"Yueyue, it's not that you don't know the situation at home, your mother has spent a lot of money on this trip, and now prices are rising rapidly, and your salary is not even enough for your father's drinking."
Cheng Xiaoyue was unwilling to argue with her father, after all, in this world, she was the only one left, her father.
But now that she has to bear the huge cost of the aftermath alone, Cheng Xiaoyue is already exhausted.
At night, his father had not come back from drinking, and Cheng Xiaoyue sat alone in the empty living room without turning on the light.
It was almost two o'clock in the morning, there was a rustling sound at the door, Cheng Xiaoyue opened the door expressionlessly, and said to her drunken father by the dim light in the corridor: "Mom is still in the hospital, I have already chosen a cemetery in the eastern suburbs cemetery, can you give me my salary last month?"
Cheng Wei lowered his head, threw the beer bottle in his hand on the ground, and sneered: "How expensive is the cemetery, didn't your mother like the sea the most when she was alive, why don't you just sprinkle her into the sea." Yueyue, Dad really has no money, it's not that you don't know the situation at home, your salary is not even enough for our family, where can you afford a cemetery. I have two thousand dollars here, you can take them all...... But Yueyue, I can say ugly things in front, you take this money, don't ask me for money after your mother's death. β
Two thousand? Cheng Xiaoyue almost laughed out loud sarcastically, "Dad, not to mention my mother's dowry, every money I have after graduation will be taken home and saved for my mother, just this is more than enough to buy a cemetery in the eastern suburbs cemetery." β
Cheng Wei suddenly seemed to have been stepped on by his tail, and his originally ugly face turned red in an instant: "Yueyue, do you know how expensive the prices are now, just your salary is not enough for our family's expenses!"
