It was early in the morning when the plane landed, Yao Zhiyue didn't sleep all night, with a thick sense of exhaustion on her eyebrows, and no blood on her face.

There was a continuous vibration on the mobile phone, but there were many missed calls and WeChat text messages, one of which was from Chen Yiming, and the rest were from Li Chenghao.

Yao Zhiyue cheered up and was about to reply to Li Chenghao's WeChat message, when the vibration of the mobile phone rang suddenly, and the caller ID was Li Chenghao's.

She pressed the answer button, slightly hoarse from the long silence, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you about something temporary." Well, just got off the plane. ”

"I don't know how to tell you right now...... Well, thank you. ”

Hanging up the phone, Yao Zhiyue had already walked out of the terminal and casually stopped a taxi to sit on.

Almost an hour later, the car slowly stopped, and Yao Zhiyue got out of the car, too late to see if there was any change in her hometown of Ancheng, her hometown after many years of absence, and walked straight in the direction of home.

She took out the key that she barely needed and opened the door, but when she saw that the room was quiet, everything was clean, and the clock on the wall was ticking, and everything was still so familiar, and there had not been a single change.

Yao Zhiyue looked towards the bedroom, but Yao Zhen was nowhere to be seen, obviously she was going out, maybe she was playing mahjong at Aunt Wang's or Aunt Li's house.

Yao Zhiyue sat on the sofa tiredly, wanting to close her eyes and recuperate for a while, but sleepiness and exhaustion invaded and fell asleep unconsciously.

I don't know how long it took for the sound of the lock to wake her up. Yao Zhiyue opened her sleepy eyes and happened to look at Yao Zhen who pushed the door in.

But seeing that Yao Zhen was obviously startled, and then patted her chest a few times, she walked straight to Yao Zhiyue and sat down without changing her shoes, without looking at her, and sneered: "My legs haven't been kicked yet, it's not time for you to come back and wear filial piety." ”

Yao Zhiyue had long been accustomed to Yao Zhen's mean words, there was no expression on her face, she looked at Yao Zhen and asked, "I want to know about my father." ”

Yao Zhen's face suddenly sank, and she said angrily: "What is there to ask!" ”

Yao Zhiyue had a wry smile on the corner of her mouth, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "Okay, it's okay not to ask about Dad's affairs." Then tell me what happened to you in the past, did you really do something wrong? ”

Yao Zhen suddenly turned her head and glared at Yao Zhiyue, as if she had been stung by a bee, and raised her hand to slap Yao Zhiyue at once.

Yao Zhiyue looked at her in astonishment, then slowly raised her hand to cover her hot and painful cheeks, and let out a sneer. Look at this action is really smooth, it's been three or four years, and the addiction to slapping her hasn't stopped.

Yao Zhen was a little overwhelmed by her reaction, shouldn't this girl leave the door? Her consistent strength made her unable to apologize even if she knew that she was wrong, so she could only cover up her weakness and helplessness at this time with vicious energy, pointing at Yao Zhiyue and scolding: "The bad thing I did was to give birth to you, a dead star, and I was so angry that I died." Why don't you die. ”

Yao Zhen's words turned into a heart-wrenching dagger and pierced Yao Zhiyue's heart fiercely. She held back her tears and whispered in pain: "Why should I bear what you have done wrong? You really make me sick! ”

Yao Zhen was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently, and she raised her hand to slap her daughter's cheek again, Yao Zhiyue suddenly got up and stood up, and pushed her, but saw Yao Zhen stumble twice and then fell on the sofa.

"I've had enough, I don't want to care about you anymore. How can someone like you be a mother! Why should I prove it for you? You don't deserve, you don't deserve. ”

Yao Zhiyue's tears slid down violently, and the only photo of their mother and daughter escaped from her wallet, tore it to pieces in front of Yao Zhen, and then opened the door and left heartbroken.

Yao Zhen looked at this daughter who had always pushed and moved, scolded ten sentences and only returned one sentence, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. It wasn't until the wall clock sounded on the hour that she bent down to pick up the fragments of the photographs that had been scattered all over the floor. Tears fell on her daughter's unsmiling but immature little face.

Yao Zhiyue left home, walking in a hurry, not knowing where to go at all, and only felt homeless in the vast world. Her tears kept sliding down, and she couldn't wipe them clean - she hated herself so much, why didn't she just strangle her in the first place.

Yao Zhiyue was tired of walking and had to stop to rest. She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Li Chenghao, but before she could click on the address book, Song Lingling's phone called.

Yao Zhiyue took a deep breath, pressed the answer button, and asked briskly, "Lingling, what's the matter?" ”

"It's okay, I'm just missing you a little, ask when you'll be back."

Yao Zhiyue's eyes were red, and although she tried her best not to cry, she couldn't help choking. Why are these people who have nothing to do with her who give her warmth?

"Yueyue, what's wrong with you? Did something happen? ”

"No, it's fine. Lingling, I still have something to do here, so I'll hang up first. ”

Yao Zhiyue hung up the phone, sniffed, and found a hotel nearby to stay. She used WeChat to tell Song Lingling that she was currently in her hometown of Ancheng, and chatted briefly.

In the middle of the night, Yao Zhiyue felt the vibration of the mobile phone, squinted her eyes and glanced at the mobile phone on the bedside table, but saw that the mobile phone screen was dazzling. Before she picked up her phone, she received several WeChat messages one after another.

Yao Zhiyue got up and sat up, turned on the corridor light, picked up her mobile phone and clicked on WeChat, when she saw Yao Zhen's familiar avatar, she couldn't help frowning slightly, and hesitated to click on the message.

"Your father's name is indeed Lee Tae-ho."

"He committed suicide after he was in prison."

"When I met your father, he already had a wife and children."

One shocked message made Yao Zhiyue gasp, but when she saw that the other party was typing a prompt, she waited for a long time and still didn't receive Yao Zhen's WeChat, probably because she deleted it and deleted it.

Yao Zhiyue trembled and knocked down a line of words: "Why did he go to prison?" ”

After a while, Yao Zhen sent a picture, Yao Zhiyue clicked on the photo to enlarge it, but saw that it was a newspaper that had been cut out, and the bold and enlarged headline shocked Yao Zhiyue - the son-in-law of the DC Group, that is, Li Taihe, the general manager of DC, was arrested and imprisoned for corruption and transfer of property.

Yao Zhiyue gasped again, because of the pixels, she couldn't finish reading this long report. However, what is on the title is enough to say more about the seriousness of the matter.

Yao Zhiyue quickly typed the next line of words, "What does his imprisonment have to do with you?" ”

After a long time, the screen of the mobile phone finally lit up again, Yao Zhiyue hurriedly clicked on it, and a large paragraph of text came into her eyes.

At that time, I never knew that he already had a wife and children. We live together as a young couple. All I know is that he is busy with work and has to travel twice in three days.

Your grandmother was very angry when she knew that I was living in a room with a man and sleeping in a bed, so she told me to marry him quickly and be ashamed. He never said he wanted to marry me, and I was so thin-skinned that I didn't dare to ask. It wasn't until I had you in my belly that I had to ask, and he told me that he had been married a long time ago.

Yao Zhiyue didn't know whether to cry or laugh, was she stupid or naïve? She asked, "You've all lived together for so long, don't you feel anything wrong at all?" ”

"Maybe I don't want to find out."

The anger in Yao Zhiyue's heart suddenly came out, so she knew that it was a pit, but she still jumped down.

The phone vibrated again, "He actually loves us." ”

Yao Zhiyue looked at the line of words sent by Yao Zhen and sneered. What is Love? She begs to agree with such a deceitful love. What's more, in the past 20 years, she has never felt the so-called love, and some are just the torture of Yao Zhen's love transformed into hatred.

She held back her anger and simply typed a few words, "What happened later?" ”

"He wanted me to beat you up at first, but when I didn't want to, he bought me a house so that I wouldn't end up on the streets with my children. Later, he rarely came, until one day, his wife didn't know how to find this place and forced me to take out the real estate certificate. ”

Yao Zhiyue was unmoved, she was just a bargaining chip for Yao Zhen, but it was a pity that Li Taihe was unmoved. Originally, in all the cases she handled, none of the men, especially the man with a strong original family, would divorce and choose the mistress.

Seeing that Yao Zhen still hadn't said the point yet, she urged, "Then why did he go to jail?" ”

"It was his wife who framed him. I don't believe it, just because he bought us a house and sinned? He also said that he transferred all his property to me, and I would have to eat in prison with him. ”

Yao Zhiyue was stunned, and suddenly thought of what Kang Rou said to her in Italy, and quickly typed the next line of words and sent it over, "When he was with you, was he still with other women?" ”

The screen of the mobile phone dimmed again, Yao Zhiyue waited for a long time, and finally received a message from Yao Zhen, "That woman's name is Lin Qiyao." ”

Yao Zhiyuexing's eyes widened, and she stood up suddenly, pacing back and forth in the narrow room, her heart was a mess, and she couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, Yao Zhen sent another picture, she clicked on it to check, and saw that it was a handwritten letter, because of the time, the paper was yellowed, the corners were a little worn, and the handwriting on it was not clear because it was a little scribbled.

She zoomed in on the photo and struggled to see it, but she still found the three words Lin Qiyao between the lines. She suddenly remembered that Ah Zheng had told her about Kang Rou's old past.

With a snap, the mobile phone in Yao Zhiyue's hand fell to the ground suddenly. She came back to her senses and quickly typed the next line, "I'll go back right away." ”
