"Brother Luo...who did you say is dead? Chen...Chen Chen?" Qiu Bailu raised her head when she heard Luo Yan's words, with tears on her face. Luo Yan's heart sank slightly and continued, "Yes, that man
The child seems very young, is he 25 years old?"
"But...but Cheng Yuanying told me...that he..." Didn't he say that he was in the ward next to her? She was still thinking that she had gotten better these days, but why didn't he come to see her...
How could...how could...
Luo Yan walked slowly to Qiu Bailu and put his hand on her shoulder. This time Qiu Bailu didn't resist. He sighed softly, "Mr. Cheng was probably afraid that you would be sad, so he didn't tell me."
To be honest, you were in such bad shape those few days. If he told you this, how would you rest and recuperate? Xiaolu, don’t blame yourself too much, it’s not your fault."
Yes, this is not her fault. If she hadn't brought Chen Chen with her, nothing would have happened to Chen Chen. If she hadn't been kidnapped into that room by Huo Dongheng, she wouldn't have gotten into this kind of trouble. If it hadn't been for her...
For such a young life, if it weren't for her, Chen Chen would still be living well now.
He just got a girlfriend, and he told himself last week that he would work hard so that during the Chinese New Year, he could buy a plane ticket to take his girlfriend home without having to squeeze into the train... so young and lively
A boy...
Never seen again.
"Why is this happening?" Qiu Bailu covered her face with her hands, her voice choked with sobs.
"I think you already have the answer." Luo Yan sat next to her, "Some people will not become better because of your goodness, nor will they become worse because of your badness. They
It's just like nature, but you shouldn't have any illusions. Huo Dongheng is a businessman, and there is nothing that cannot be sold or bought back in his heart. It's just whether giving and getting can be balanced. If you don't believe this, you have to pay the price."
"But the price is too heavy." Qiu Bailu murmured.
"Is it serious? I don't think so. At least you are still alive, right? As long as you are alive, you have a chance. Xiaolu, it's time to resist. You can't let him control your destiny forever." Luo Yan tightened his grip on Qiu.
Bai Lu's hand, "Why do you think he told Zhou Yuan your identity? Is it just because he accidentally let it slip, or because..."
Or because he had already calculated that Zhou Yuan would do something to her. If Zhou Yuan succeeded, he would be done with it once and for all. He would get the Qiu family easily and without any psychological burden. Because he didn't kill the person, he was clean.
, without a trace of blood.
"No...I know he...he is not a good person, but it's not like that..." Qiu Bailu answered painfully.
There was compassion in Luo Yan's eyes, but this wisp of compassion would not stop him from what he was about to say, "You just can't believe it. I know you grew up with him since you were a child, and everyone is like this.
You have an extraordinary fondness for the things that accompany you when you grow up, but you can't deny that you actually don't understand him at all, right? Otherwise, you and him... wouldn't be where you are today."
There was no need for Luo Yan to tell her these facts so nakedly, she would always understand these truths. It wasn't that she didn't understand, she just didn't want to, didn't want the process from love to hate to be so direct and tragic.
But Luo Yan didn't give her a chance or let her escape. He wanted her to face these ugliness head-on, leaving no room for her. "Don't deceive yourself, Xiaolu. The sooner you accept love for some things, the more damage will be caused."
Small. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. It’s time for you to make a decision.”
What does he want her to decide, to turn against that person, or to dig him out of her heart alive?
No matter which one it is, it will make her feel painful and miserable.
Qiu Bailu didn't know when Luo Yan left. She hid her face in the quilt and refused to listen to him or anyone else say another word.
After a long time, the door of the ward was opened again. Qiu Bailu thought it was a nurse coming to deliver food, so she said sadly, "I don't want to eat, you go out."
"How can you not eat? No one will care about you like this?"
When Qiu Bailu heard the voice, her whole body trembled. She poked her head out from the quilt, her eyes hurt from the glare of the incandescent light. She closed her eyes, and Chen Chen's smiling face flashed before her eyes. "Why are you doing this?
Come?"
"I heard something happened to you, so I came to see you, Xiaolu, are you okay?"
"What do you think of me like this? I'm not dead, Mr. Huo, are you particularly disappointed?"
Huo Dongheng frowned, "Xiaolu, what do you mean?"
Qiu Bailu looked at him coldly. Her eyes were so cold that Huo Dongheng felt a chill in his heart, "Xiaolu, you..."
He took a step forward and wanted to touch Qiu Bailu's face as usual, but Qiu Bailu suddenly pulled back and slapped the pager on the wall with her backhand, "Go away, I don't want to see you."
The pager was connected to the nurse's station. If you press it, the nurse will come over in a few minutes. Huo Dongheng straightened up but did not step back, "Xiao Lu, I don't know what I did wrong. Why are you guarding me like this?"
He is still pretending to this day! If Fang Shiqing hadn't come over to explain everything clearly, I'm afraid Qiu Bailu would have been kept in the dark by him until her death! For the sake of his own glory and wealth, he would risk her life.
In this case, why did she still hide him in her heart?
She always thought that no matter what he did, she had loved him so much and would have left him some mercy if she had not gone to the last resort. But she really, really didn't expect...
"Huo Dongheng, you are so good. I don't care how you treat me. Anyway, no matter how cruel you are, you have never done anything, but you... Do you know how old Chen Chen is this year? He is only 24! He just graduated from college.
One year! But he...he died like this..." Everything related to him is gone, and everyone who loved him will be sad.
Huo Dongheng frowned, "I didn't know something like this happened to him, and I'm very sorry." Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his right hand.
Huo Dongheng lowered his head in disbelief. He saw a deep and huge blood mark scratched out of the palm of his right hand. The wound penetrated the entire palm and blood dripped out.
The one who hurt him was none other than Qiu Bailu. Qiu Bailu pulled out the needle stuck in her vein at some point. She used the needle as a knife and cut Huo Dongheng.
"Regret? Let me tell you, this is really called regret. When Ren Ying did that to me, you said you could pay off her debt. I really regret it. How could I let you go so easily?" She didn't know.
Which of his blood vessels was injured? The blood quickly gathered into a small pool on the light maple-colored floor. Huo Dongheng's face didn't know whether it was due to rapid blood loss or something else. It was as pale as a piece of white paper. Qiu Bailu looked at him.
This look made her feel extremely happy. She said word by word, "Looking at it now, it's not that I won't repay. The time has not come yet. It's time for you to pay the debt. Huo Dongheng, you owe my family, you owe me."
, I will make you repay it every stroke of your life, don’t worry, I will not be soft-hearted this time!"
"Xiao Lu, are you going to declare war on me? Are you sure you can?" At this time, he could still laugh.
Qiu Bailu stared at him fiercely, "How will you know if you don't try? When my father picked you up, you were just a wild dog. Now, haven't you learned how to bite people?!"
She had never said such unpleasant words to him. Those words were like thorns piercing Huo Dongheng's eardrums, hurtling all the way to his heart.
"That's fine. Since you don't want to be merciful, I won't be polite either." Huo Dongheng stood up and walked out with a cold face. Qiu Bailu thought he was leaving, but she didn't expect him to stop when he reached the door.
When he came down, he locked the door, then untied the tie tied neatly around his neck, and walked towards Qiu Bailu again.
Qiu Bailu had a very bad premonition in her heart. Because her leg was injured, she could only press her body hard against the head of the bed, "What are you going to do? Don't come here again!"
She pressed the bell on the wall hard, and she could even hear the urgent bell coming from the nurse's station, but Huo Dongheng did not stop because of her words. He grabbed Qiu Bailu's hand, and first pressed it from her
He snatched the needle out of his hand, and then used the tie to tie Qiu Bailu's hands together.
"If you want to hate, then hate it completely!" He said, pulling down, the buttons of Qiu Bailu's hospital gown were torn open in an instant, and the pieces flew everywhere. Qiu Bailu screamed, white and naked.
His body was immediately exposed in front of Huo Dongheng.
"Huo Dongheng! You beast! You are still not a man!! Let me go! What kind of skills do you have?!" Qiu Bailu shouted loudly, but her screams could not stop the man's actions.
Huo Dongheng roughly pressed his hand on her chest, and an unbearable pain was immediately felt near the wound. Qiu Bailu gasped in pain, and all the sounds disappeared.
"Didn't you just say that you must pay back what you owe you? I owe you more than that. I really want to see how you want me to pay you back!"
He pulled her curled body down hard, and half of Qiu Bailu's body was hanging in the air. Huo Dongheng wiped Qiu Bailu's legs away with his hands, and her legs were widely spread by him.
His movements were stiff and rough, and Qiu Bailu's wound was touched repeatedly by him. She was in so much pain that she just wanted to run away, but Huo Dongheng refused to let her go.
Qiu Bailu struggled hard. She was already seriously injured, and now she struggled with Huo Dongheng. She felt like she was about to die. Her whole body was so limp that she couldn't move. Huo Dongheng seemed to see this, and his movements stopped.
Instead of being rude, he became extremely gentle. He seemed to be opening a rare gift, and peeled off Qiu Bailu's clothes one by one. His eyes were so hot that they were almost scalding, looking back and forth on her body, which made her
Qiu Bailu felt that he could clearly see her inside and out, and there was no privacy at all.
