Ye Chengxuan asked this question entirely because of his understanding of Xia Haitong. There were only three possibilities for Xia Haitong to be so quiet. The first was that she was asking for something, the second was that she made a mistake, and the third was that
She wanted to ask him if she had any doubts in her mind.
Ye Chengxuan intuitively thought they were not the first two, so Xia Haitong wanted to ask him something.
Xia Haitong did not answer. Ye Chengxuan looked at her profile and said, "If you have anything to ask, just ask. You are not suitable for silence."
At this time, Xia Haitong turned his head, looked at the familiar figure beside him, and said calmly: "I just want to ask you something."
Ye Chengxuan frowned slightly and said, "It's not appropriate to talk here. I'll take you home first."
Xia Haitong shook his head and said, "No, it's fine here. I just want to ask you a question, and you can just tell me yes or no."
Xia Haitong was surprisingly calm now, and Ye Chengxuan looked at her with an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
"Even if it's simple, we'll wait until we get home."
Ye Chengxuan grabbed her hand and pulled her away without any explanation. To his surprise, Xia Haitong showed no resistance and just followed him into the car.
Upon seeing this, Ding Xiaoqian immediately asked Lei Ming to follow them. Although Lei Ming was very reluctant, he finally compromised.
Twenty minutes later, Xia Haitong's house.
Ding Xiaoqian and Lei Ming were sitting on the sofa. Ding Xiaoqian looked at Xia Haitong's home curiously. This was the first time for Ding Xiaoqian, her new home, to come.
As for Ye Chengxuan and Xia Haitong, they were standing in the corner by the window. Suddenly Xia Haitong walked up to Ding Xiaoqian and said, "Xiao Qian, I have something to talk to Ye Chengxuan alone. Can you and Lei Ming step aside for a while?"
Ding Xiaoqian and Lei Ming looked at each other, and before Ding Xiaoqian could make a choice, Lei Ming dragged her away.
Seeing the door being closed again, Ye Chengxuan asked: "What's wrong with you?"
Just now, Xia Haitong didn't answer, but just looked at him quietly. At this time, Ye Chengxuan couldn't help himself, and said, "Whatever you want to ask, tell me now."
Hearing this, Xia Haitong could feel her heart beating suddenly. She slowly clenched her fists and took deep breaths over and over again.
Just now in the park, when she was alone with Ding Xiaoqian, she made the worst and best plans for herself. She said a lot to herself and used many methods to calm her mood until she could calmly face the situation just now.
For Ye Chengxuan, she felt that she was ready and ready to accept everything that was coming.
But at this moment, when she could know the truth, she was timid.
She hates her own cowardice, but she hates that the source of this cowardice is Ye Chengxuan even more. But it doesn't matter, she won't let him find out all this, she has thought about it, and will use coldness and toughness to cover up her cowardice. Assuming that things really come to pass.
At that point, she had the confidence to control her tears, at least in front of him.
She must guard her last dignity and pride, she must guard it!
"Xia Haitong, what happened to you today, why..."
Ye Chengxuan just wanted to approach Xia Haitong, but she stopped him.
"Don't come near me!"
Xia Haitong subconsciously took two steps back, while Ye Chengxuan stood there silently. The two looked at each other, and there was no room for anything in each other's pupils except each other.
She looked at him and his unhappy expression, and she knew that there were some things that should always be faced.
"Is the disappearance of my parents related to you?"
She asked the question like this, speaking simply and calmly.
"Who said this to you?"
Ye Chengxuan's voice was also very calm, so calm that she thought it had nothing to do with him. But she saw it, and saw the strange light shining in his dark jade-like eyes.
"You don't need to know, you just need to answer me, yes or no."
Her tone was so strong and her words were so cold. Even Ye Chengxuan would feel a little scared by her like this.
Ye Chengxuan did not answer her words, and she did not continue to ask him. The two of them were in a stalemate, letting time pass by.
Gradually, Ye Chengxuan's face no longer looked calm and calm as usual. Slowly, his sword eyebrows began to press downwards, while Xia Haitong was still as cold and lifeless as before.
There is even a trend of getting worse.
Ye Chengxuan looked at her increasingly unfamiliar eyes, and his heart sank little by little. He never thought that this fact that he had never wanted to face would be forced to face it in this situation.
It came without any warning, and without any mental preparation, he faced the question from her personally.
However, he is still holding a bit of luck in his heart, and he hopes that Xia Haitong will not know too much.
"Yes, it has something to do with me."
Ye Chengxuan's words were very soft, so soft that if you didn't pay attention, you would think it was just your own illusion.
However, these seven words did exist, and they did reach her ears.
"Is it because of me?"
Ye Chengxuan nodded.
"Because I am noble, that's why you try to make me submit, that's why my parents' business failed, that's why you let them take drugs, that's why my sister is critically ill, so..."
Xia Haitong recounted all this calmly, but this calmness made Ye Chengxuan's heart beat fast.
"That's not the case, please listen to my explanation!"
He interrupted her and when he wanted to get closer to her, he was stopped by her again.
"Don't come close to me! Don't come close to me!!" She paused slightly, "Tell me, what methods did you use to make my parents leave me, and what methods did you use to make my parents become drug addicts?
"
Ye Chengxuan lowered his eyes and whispered: "After your parents went bankrupt, I told them that as long as they transported a batch of goods for me, I could help them. Although they vaguely felt that these goods must not be normal goods at that time, but
They thought it was just smuggling. In order to pay off their debts, they agreed."
"But that shipment was actually drugs, right?"
Ye Chengxuan nodded: "Later, in order to make them work for me, I sent people pretending to be policemen to arrest them. At this time, I told them that if they wanted to survive, they had to abscond, and they couldn't say anything to you, otherwise it would only hurt you. I also
I told them that I would go on the run for a year and a half, and when the news is over, you can reunite as a family. During this period, I would secretly send someone to take care of you two sisters, so they agreed to abandon you without saying a word."
"My parents must have been very grateful to you at that time." After a slight pause, she asked, "Then how did you get them to take drugs?"
"Then I arranged for them to look at the warehouse with a few drug addicts, and what was stored in the warehouse was drugs."
"Subtlely..." Xia Haitong gritted his teeth, "Ye Chengxuan, you are really thoughtful."
Ye Chengxuan looked at Xia Haitong with a complicated face and said slowly: "At first, they actually thought about quitting drugs, but..."
"It's just that drug addiction is too difficult to get rid of, and temptation is all around them. When the drug addiction attacks, how can they think of the word "rehabilitation"? Later, when they have become completely dependent on drugs,
You pretended to have discovered that they were taking drugs and put them in a separate place. Maybe your excuse at that time was to help them detoxify, but then because of their begging, you continued to provide them with the poison mercifully.
Is what you said wrong?"
Ye Chengxuan nodded, with a little surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect Xia Haitong to think so clearly, as if he had seen him do it with his own eyes.
At this moment, Xia Haitong finally knew why his parents were so grateful to Ye Chengxuan. It turned out that they were not crazy, but that from beginning to end, they regarded Ye Chengxuan as a good person and savior!!
Today, she finally knew the reason why her parents abandoned them. It turned out that it was not that they didn't love them, it was precisely because of their protection that they chose to leave silently!
It turns out that the reason why their parents have been indifferent for so many years is not that they hate them and don’t want them, nor that they have forgotten them, but that they want to see them but can’t!
After the effects of the poison wear off, when the parents wake up, they must be in a lot of pain. They want to see their daughters, but they are afraid that they will despise and spurn them. They are worried that it will hurt them and become a burden to them. They can only choose to avoid seeing them.
, choose to take drugs in order to escape reality. Over and over again, it continues in a vicious circle, until their character is gradually eroded, and finally they become like this.
Everything her parents did was for herself and her sister. Knowing all this, she should be happy and let go of the knots she had held for many years. But why couldn't she feel happy? Why did her heart hurt so much? She even
I started regretting my decision to meet Li Siqin, regretting asking that question to Ye Chengxuan, regretting knowing all this!
If, if she didn't know all this, or if Ye Chengxuan didn't do all this, then what would be the ending for her and him?
This thought flashed through her mind, but the traces of its existence were erased by the hatred and anger in her mind.
She clenched her fists, looked at Ye Chengxuan angrily, and roared: "Why, why do you have to get me, why do you have to make me your pawn!!"
Ye Chengxuan was startled for a moment. Seeing that he was unwilling to tell him the reason, Xia Haitong smiled to himself and said, "I am such an idiot. I made the mistake of pushing too far again!"
Ye Chengxuan finally came to his senses and said quickly: "Don't get excited, listen to my explanation!"
Xia Haitong shook her head repeatedly: "No, Ye Chengxuan, actually you don't need to explain anything to me. For a powerful person like you, human life is just an ant to you." She paused slightly and changed the subject.
"But although I can't hinder you, I can still control my feelings. In this life, I, Xia Haitong, and you, Ye Chengxuan, will always be enemies. You and I swear to be incompatible!!!"
After saying that, Xia Haitong casually picked up a rubber band, tied all her hair into a ponytail, smashed the mobile phone Ye Chengxuan bought her on the ground, and said: "Young Master Ye, from now on you go your own way.
I will walk on my single-plank bridge to the ends of the earth and never have anything to do with it!"
She turned around gracefully and walked to the door without looking back. She was so decisive and so straightforward.
However, all her efforts were overturned by his words.
