Hearing the rude and obscene words on the phone, Xie Rong's face instantly became tense and stiff.
He subconsciously wanted to hang up the phone, but he was worried that the man with no bottom line and no regard for shame would really make trouble... It was also at this time that he thought of what the psychiatrist said.
"Maybe you can try to face it without escaping... Because you are already strong enough. After facing all those things, maybe you will find that those things are not so scary..."
After a pause, Xie Rong tapped the phone twice to indicate that he understood.
After hanging up the phone, he sat down and finished the meal he cooked without haste, washed the dishes, tidied everything up, and then packed up and went out.
Worried about being recognized by others, Xie Rong put on a baseball cap and a mask before going downstairs to take a taxi.
He didn't go back directly, but went to a park and sat quietly by himself... as if he was escaping from something.
But he knew he couldn't avoid it.
Finally, he got up and walked out of the park... Twenty minutes later, he returned to the dilapidated house filled with all his memories and nightmares.
Xie Long and Su Lan were having dinner, porridge with steamed buns and pickles. When they saw Xie Rong appearing at the door, Xie Long said in a strange tone: "Hey, look, isn't this a big star back?"
Xie Rong gestured to him: "What do you want?"
Su Lan stood up quickly: "Just go home, sit down first..."
Xie Long threw his chopsticks directly: "What do I want? Now that you have become a star and made money, why don't you ask me what I want if you don't respect me?"
The chopsticks dropped the porridge on the dirty floor tiles. Xie Rong looked away, paused, and took out his mobile phone to type.
"Pippi is sick, so I gave all my money to my eldest brother."
When Xie Long saw it, he immediately became furious: "That bitch has severed ties with me. Why don't you show respect to me by giving money to an outsider? If I hadn't raised you for so many years, you, a mute and mentally ill, would have starved to death. Do you know that?"
?”
Xie Long gritted his teeth and cursed: "Next time if you dare to give him money again, I will strangle that little sick man to death!"
Xie Rong's face was ashen.
Xie Long was so angry that he stretched out his hand: "Hurry up, you must still have money, your mother can't even eat, don't talk nonsense to me and pretend to be pitiful."
Xie Rong paused and took out all the cash on his body, which was less than one thousand yuan.
Because Xiaoru takes care of him, he usually doesn't use money much.
But when Xie Long saw the few hundred yuan, he became completely angry. He stood up and slapped Xie Rong: "Are you sending away a beggar? You are a wolf-hearted and dog-eating despicable thing."
Su Lan shrank into a corner in fear, and Xie Rong grabbed his hair... He suddenly remembered what the psychiatrist said.
"The things you are afraid of are not as scary as you think..."
Xie Rong's body went stiff. The next moment, he stretched out his hand and pinched Xie Long's wrist... In his memory, he was so powerful that he could easily knock him to the ground. His arm didn't have much strength, so he pulled it away as soon as he exerted force.
.
A flash of light flashed in Xie Rong's eyes, but Xie Long became even more angry.
"You dare to fight back, you bastard. You really think you have become a big star, don't you? You just work as a licking dog for a rich woman, and you are as despicable as your mother..."
Xie Long cursed and tore at Xie Rong: "Those people should see what kind of despicable bastard you are, and you are still a celebrity. Damn, that rich woman is also despicable if she wants you..."
Xie Rong's expression suddenly turned cold, and he raised his hand to pinch Xie Long's neck to shut him up.
You can scold him, but you can't scold Sheng Nuan... No one can scold her!
Xie Long turned his head to dodge and smiled ferociously: "What, your feet hurt? You are all despicable people... If you raise a dog like you, that woman is despicable, dirty and shameless..."
Xie Rong's eyes suddenly turned red.
He pulled away Xie Long's hand that was grabbing him randomly, and grabbed Xie Long's neck with both hands. The force was so strong that Xie Long's face was distorted.
Su Lan was shocked, struggling to get up and trying to pull Xie Rong away: "Xie Rong, let go, that's your dad, you are going to strangle him to death, let go quickly...ah!"
Su Lan was thrown out by Xie Rong without looking and fell to the ground. She opened her eyes wide and couldn't believe it: "You are crazy, Xie Rong, you are really crazy, you are going to kill someone...kill someone!"
Xie Rong couldn't think of anything else at this moment. His only thought was to shut up this man... He could no longer abuse or beat him. He wanted to shut this man up forever.
Xie Long's eyes bulged outwards, his legs kicked wildly, trying desperately to pull Xie Rong's hand away, but he couldn't pull it away at all.
Seeing that Xie Long's eyeballs were a little bloodshot, at this moment, a hand covered Xie Rong's eyes from behind.
Sheng Nuan covered Xie Rong's bloody and ferocious eyes, filled with crazy hatred, pulled him back with force, and whispered comfort in his ear: "It's okay, it's okay... Let him go, Xie Rong, don't do it because of him
Destroy yourself, be good, it’s okay..."
It's warm.
The redness in Xie Rong's eyes suddenly stopped, and then began to dissipate. He let go of his hand and slowly turned his head.
When he saw Sheng Nuan's worried and concerned look, Xie Rong finally woke up completely. He froze for a moment, and the next moment, he reached out and hugged Sheng Nuan tightly.
Sheng Nuan patted his back and couldn't help but comfort him: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay."
Next to her, Su Lan rushed to help Xie Long...
"I'm going to sue him, I'm going to sue you for attempted murder!" Xie Long gasped, covering his neck.
Sheng Nuan turned around and threw down the two thousand yuan: "Either take the money and shut up, or I'll go find a lawyer... It's been a long time since you've been involved in domestic violence, eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and drugs. Do you think you will go in?"
She turned back and said word by word: "Anyway, I have money. I will find the best lawyer and fight for the heaviest penalty for you. If you don't believe it, we can give it a try."
Xie Long has always been a rough-and-tumble but coward outside. He is only strong in front of his wife and children. When he saw Sheng Nuan's glamorous appearance and cold words, he immediately lost his arrogance. He reached out and grabbed the money on the ground and scratched his neck: "
I am his father, he must have earned a lot of money for you, don’t even think about using this little money to send a beggar away.”
Sheng Nuan smiled half-heartedly: "Then just wait."
After saying that, she helped Xie Rong up: "Let's go."
Su Lan hurriedly said: "Xie Rong..."
Xie Rong paused slightly, but never looked back.
Growing up, every time she was beaten, he would rush out, but whenever he was beaten, she would always hug herself and hide in the corner and cry... She always said to him, "That's your dad", but
Never thought that she was his mother...
After being led out of the urban village by Sheng Nuan and sitting on Sheng Nuan's car, Xie Rong suddenly realized something.
Just now, Sheng Nuan saw his look like a lunatic who had lost his mind.
He can't speak, has no education... and is mentally unstable...
He also knew that another artist signed by Sheng Nuan, Gu Qi, had begun to show his talent and was very talented.
But what about him...what did he have that was worthy of her investment?
Xie Rong's heart couldn't help but sink to the extreme. Because he was too frightened, his body was stiff and still trembling faintly.
Sheng Nuan didn't say anything, but he felt that she was probably thinking about how to talk to him.
Of course, he didn't deserve all this. It was she who pulled him and wanted to take him out of the darkness, but he himself was a monster struggling in the dark whirlpool...
