Chapter 74: The Final Punishment
Cheng Lin lives in Ankang Hospital, the ward number is 902, the top floor, the VIP ward. As if knowing that she would come, the bodyguard guarding the door saw her and let her in directly.
Lu Zhixue's heart was beating fast, her breathing was a little unsteady, and fear was full of all the cells in her body, she wanted to turn around and leave, but the door behind her had been closed, her body didn't seem to be her own, and an invisible pressure pushed her to the truth, and the closer she got to the truth, the more panic surging.
Finally, she walked through the small passage and came to the inner room.
A fresh floral fragrance permeated her nose, and Lu Zhixue saw Cheng Lin sitting on the hospital bed, with gauze wrapped around her head, and her left arm in a plaster, and when she saw her, a slight smile appeared on her slightly pale face.
It was a friendly smile, but in Lu Zhixue's eyes, it was like a demon's smile.
"Hey, how have you been?" She greeted softly, looking simple and beautiful, as if she was greeting an old acquaintance.
Lu Zhixue stabilized her mind, "Drag your blessing, everything is healthy." ”
"Really?" Cheng Lin asked with a smile, with a flash of sympathy in her eyes.
"You should know better than I do." Lu Zhixue's voice was not warm, she raised her eyes and looked around, but she didn't see Ouyang Rui's figure, and her uneasy heart slowly let go.
"Looking for Rui?" Cheng Lin asked with a smile.
Lu Zhixue looked at her with indifference in her eyes, "Cheng Lin, Rui and I will register our marriage tomorrow." ”
"Registration? Tie the knot? Lu Zhixue, are you stupid enough to think that Rui really wants to marry you? Cheng Lin looked sympathetic.
Lu Zhixue frowned, "What do you mean!" ”
Cheng Lin touched her hand with a plaster cast, so that she could look at her for a long time, "Dong Qing didn't answer the phone, right?" ”
Her pupils shrank suddenly, and she looked at her in disbelief:
"Cheng Lin!"
Cheng Lin smiled, "Honey, I didn't do this. ”
"What did you do to Uncle Dong!"
"Go to the left and open that cabinet, there are things you want to know about it."
Lu Zhixue hesitated slightly, then walked to the left, only a few steps away from the cabinet, but it was as long as if a whole century had passed.
Finally, she stood in front of the cabinet, bent over, stretched out her hand, and opened the cabinet tremblingly, and what caught her eyes was a photo that had been flipped over and a voice recorder.
She trembled her hands, picked up the photo, and flipped it slowly, when she saw the photo clearly, Lu Zhixue's whole person was like being hit by five thunders!
In the photo, Dong Qing was covered in blood and fell in a pool of blood, his face was covered with blood, and his eyes were looking at the camera empty, without focus, as if his soul had gone away, leaving only a cold body.
Lu Zhixue screamed and threw the photo out! turned around and ran over like crazy, she was going to kill Cheng Lin!
"After you listen to that recording, maybe you want to kill it, it's not me."
Cheng Lin smiled, still gentle, but more terrifying than the devil.
Lu Zhixue paused suddenly, and the recorder was held tightly in his hand, like a soldering iron, and it was terrifyingly hot.
"Don't dare to listen?" Cheng Lin chuckled, with a sympathetic look in her eyes, "Listen, after listening, you will find that from beginning to end, I am the most merciful to you." ”
At the end, Cheng Lin added, "Or do you need me to show it to you?" That's right, just press the pen. ”
Lu Zhixue held the recorder tightly, lowered her eyes, stared at the smooth pen for dozens of seconds, and then, as if she had finally made a decision, she lifted the pen and pressed it with her left hand, a series of slow movements like a twilight old lady.
The recorder was silent, and it took a long time before the sound of rustling sounded, and then the voice of a man and a woman talking:
"Rui."
"You did the newspapers?"
"Rui, I'm sick and I've been in the hospital, what can I do?"
"You just have to answer my question."
"It's not." Cheng Lin denied it, "I believe you, you said that you approached Lu Zhixue just to complete the last punishment, and I will not interfere with anything you do during this period." ”
"Then the photo of me and Lu Zhixue made newspaper headlines, and it was purely an accident?"
"I don't know if it's an accident, but, Rui, I believe you, you have to choose to believe me, and besides, you are clearly acting on Lu Zhixue, and now that she is hurt, aren't you happier?"
"I just don't like the plan being ruined halfway through."
"As long as you're not sincere, the plan will never be ruined."
"But looking at the photos, Lu Zhixue seems to have delivered her sincerity to you." Cheng Lin's voice was very brisk, "Rui, your goal has almost been achieved." ”
"Rui, congratulations, it's just the last step to complete the last punishment, but you don't have to be too heavy, Zhixue is a girl after all, if you can't stand your blow, it's not good to kill yourself."
"You don't have to worry about that."
"Rui." Cheng Lin suddenly stopped him.
"You won't be sincere to Lu Zhixue, will you?"
"Well, it won't."
The voice stopped abruptly, but soon, a new voice sounded:
"Rui, you ...... her"
"That was punishment just now."
"Rui, she's had enough, can you ......"
"What do you say?"
"She's been punished enough over the years, hasn't she?"
"Do you feel sorry for her?"
"I feel sorry for you."
"Well, for your sake."
"Really?"
"Give her one last punishment."
"What punishment?"
"I'll tell you later."
"Don't be too scary."
"Yes."
The conversation stopped again, and there was an eerie silence afterward.
The recorder slipped from her hand and landed on the floor with a click, making it louder in the quiet of the room.
Lu Zhixue stood in place in a daze, like a statue covered with thick frost, frozen in the dim ice and snow, her world seemed to have collapsed at this moment.
"Now you know that I'm the one who has been the most merciful to you." Cheng Lin said calmly.
The voice was very soft, but it was like a huge magic hand, pushing the woman who seemed to have lost her soul into the abyss, Lu Zhixue's face turned white and shook her head, "No, this is fake, impossible." ”
Cheng Lin smiled, "You can try, what will he do to you after receiving the certificate tomorrow." ”
Lu Zhixue swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, trying her best to stabilize her mind, she looked at the sympathetic woman on the hospital bed, and forced her to be calm:
"Why did you tell me? Don't tell me, you're sympathetic. ”
Cheng Linwan'er, "I was really right, it is indeed sympathy, the most important thing is that I don't want to watch Rui torture himself, and because of your Lu family, let his hands get a little more blood!" ”
In the end, Cheng Lin's words changed, and her eyes became fierce.
Lu Zhixue's eyes widened in astonishment, and her body took a few steps back uncontrollably, like a fallen leaf in the wind, crumbling.
Cheng Lin looked at her coldly, "Lu Zhixue, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise, after Dong Qing, it's you." ”
"Shut up!" Lu Zhixue roared with red eyes, and her fierce appearance seemed to disassemble her into her belly!
"I've said everything that needs to be said, as for what to do, you choose for yourself, don't even know how to die when the time comes."
"Impossible! He couldn't have done this to me! She wanted to say it firmly, but her lips trembled as she spoke.
Cheng Lin looked at her funny, "Lu Zhixue, you are really stupid, no wonder you will be played around by Rui, your Lu family forced Rui's parents to jump off the building, and what is even more hateful is that they died in front of him, such a bloody and miserable picture, do you think he may forget?" I'm afraid, his only wish to live is to let everyone in your Lu family pay for their blood debts! ”
Word by word, like a cold sword straight through Lu Zhixue's heart, she almost died of pain.
Cheng Lin suddenly smiled, with a smile of a little guilt, "The Lu family owes our Cheng family, and it has already been paid off, so it should be regarded as my kindness and virtue for the Cheng family, you go, go far away, don't come back." ”
In the end, Lu Zhixue was shocked by the repeated blows, and ran out of the hospital like a walking corpse like a lost soul.
She didn't know how long she had been running, and the whole world suddenly seemed to be empty, empty, and she seemed to be the only one left in the world, lonely, quietly watching the sadness of the river flowing backwards.
In the end, when she was tired of running, she sat in the bus hall, staring blankly at the passing cars, people coming and going, flashing neon, and the world was chaotic, as if it had become distorted and hideous in an instant.
She suddenly remembered that when she met again, Ouyang Rui was in the office, he looked at her, such indifferent eyes, dark and bottomless, hiding a violent beastly nature, and then hooked his thin lips, and said in such a beautiful but deadly voice:
It's not enough, it's not enough to repay debts.
One more punishment is missing.
He had already told her that there was still one punishment left.
She was stupid and mistook the deadly poison for sweet date honey, but why was she so desperate? Dong Qing is not wrong about anything, why did he take his life?
kept saying that he would give him more time, but Lu Zhixue only now realized that it was not to give him more time to find the truth, but to give him more time to slash the enemy.
Lu Zhixue's expression was sluggish, and her heart was like a lonely tomb for a thousand years, inexhaustible desolation.
Didi's ringing sound, it was her mobile phone ringing.
Lu Zhixue moved her sour body, took out the mobile phone in her pocket, didn't look at who it was, and pressed it directly, but the other party didn't seem to give up, and soon called again, Lu Zhixue lowered her eyes and saw an unfamiliar number flashing on the screen.
She blinked her dry eyes and pressed the answer button.
"Hello, is it Miss Lu?" A polite male voice came from there.
Lu Zhixue exhaled, "I am." ”
"Great, finally got in touch with you."
"You are?" Lu Zhixue frowned suspiciously.
"This is the city's public security bureau, it's like this, your father fell down the stairs a week ago, rescue failed, unfortunately passed away......"
The man's voice was gentle, as if it were saying that the weather was fine today, unaware that every word he uttered was enough to break her nerves and shatter her soul.
Lu Zhixue didn't listen to the next words, she stood up, opened a pair of straight eyes, pushed away the crowd, and stumbled forward like a demon.
