C526 He Was Infatuated with Me?
C526 He Was Infatuated with Me?
The black umbrella left his hand and was blown away by the wind, rolling on the ground. Soon, it was gone.
Helan Xiaoxin didn't even look at the umbrella. She didn't even raise her hands to cover her face. She just sat on the ground with one hand, silently watching the drizzling rain falling from the sky.
Her face was calm.
This proved that she had long since been mentally prepared. She knew that when she saw her little brother, he would give her a fierce slap.
Helan Xiaoxin, a cunning, venomous girl, would never be slapped by her younger brother. She would hate him just like that.
She remembered that when her mother died, she held her hand tightly and told her with great difficulty that she must take good care of her brother's words.
After the young mistress of a Wealthy Class family passed away, it was very normal for young master to find a beautiful woman to be his stepmother.
In fact, the Wealthy Class families were just like ordinary families. All the mothers who died from illness were worried that their children would be bullied by their stepmothers before they died.
At the age of eight, Helan Xiaoxin kept promising her mother that she would take care of her brother the way her mother took care of her. If anyone dared to bully him by even a finger, she would kill that person!
Helan Xiaoxin said and did the same.
Her current stepmother was her father's fourth wife, and she treated the two of them extremely well.
Previously, her father's two wives could also be considered to be from influential clans. They needed ordinary people to be untouchable and inviolable. However, their results were not too good.
The first stepmother had gone mad half a year later.
The second stepmother had a car accident in three months.
At that time, Helan Xiaoxin was nine years old and eleven years old.
It wasn't until her stepmother had married into the family and treated the two of them like her own mother did Helan Xiaoxin finally find the happiness she deserved, the most beautiful flower in the hedonistic circle of Beijing.
Thus, tonight, Holan Fusu didn't say anything. After he slapped her, Helan Xiaoxin didn't get angry nor did she feel wronged. She only felt an indescribable sense of tranquility.
It was because she knew, that was why she knew the truth. She knew, that was why she acted instinctively when she found out that her elder sister, whom he respected and even pitied his entire life, was actually a Great Poisonous Owl.
The more he beat her up, the more he cared about his sister.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Holan Fusu's voice was hoarse and filled with the scent of blood.
He bit his teeth so hard that they bled.
"There are some things that you'd better not know."
Helan Xiaoxin lifted her head, and looked at her brother with the same gentle and doting gaze, "What you need to do is to try your best to become the third generation Patriarch of Helan Family. That way, mother will be satisfied. "
"We are siblings, blood related siblings of one another. I am a man, and if you want to talk about taking care of me, I should be the one taking care of you. "
Helan Xiaoxin walked in front of her, bent her knees, and knelt down in the mud. She lifted her sister's hand to smooth out her messy hair, "As for what I want, I will fight for it with all my might. What about you? "You will only be responsible for being a good wife and mother to each other, and will be happy for the rest of your life."
"Fu Su, you should know how desperate the competition for the third generation Patriarch of Helan Family is. There are too many, too many outstanding boys in our family. Sometimes I even think that if they had suddenly passed away, then I wouldn't be so tired and you wouldn't have to work so hard. "
Helan Xiaoxin shook her head, extending her hand to caress her brother's cheek, "But I can't do that. So, if you don't want to become the new Patriarch by carrying all the dirt on your back, then you have to let me help you secretly accumulate the power to charge up the mountain peak. "
Holan Fusu bit his lips and said hoarsely, "But I don't care."
"This is so freaking rare."
Helan Xiaoxin said softly, "You were two years old when our mother died. "However, I feel that you should have known, or could have felt, in me what a proud and arrogant woman we are."
"She was so proud, so strong, so capable."
When Helan Xiaoxin smiled, her tears flowed. "But she fell under the knife of gynecological cancer — Fu Su, you don't know, you really don't know. My mother, who had been tortured by cancer to the point of being emaciated, died unwillingly. "She hasn't even seen her daughter getting married yet, and her son has already grown up. How can he die already?"
Holan Fusu's lips were trembling. He could not say a single word. All he could do was to fiercely punch the hard surface of the road.
The joints of his fingers immediately bulged as fresh blood spurted out.
Helan Xiaoxin felt her heart ache. She hurriedly got up, took out a handkerchief and wrapped his hand.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier.
The siblings knelt in the muddy water, allowing the wind and rain to blow against them.
"You, actually, already knew that our family only used you as a ATM to use you, right?"
Holan Fusu clenched his right hand, "But, you pretended not to know. In the dark, you have already made a few plans. As long as you die, you can cut off others' escape routes to investigate our family."
"That's all I can do."
Helan Xiaoxin told the truth, "Before it happened, I didn't think, much less see, that our family was deliberately indulging me. I don't blame my family. After all, if you want to do it, you must pay the price. "
What Helan Xiaoxin paid was the happiness of her entire life.
In exchange, he hoped that Holan Fusu would one day defeat the other direct descendants of his family and become the third generation Patriarch of Helan Family.
If she didn't pay, why would Helan Family slant its resources towards Jack?
The resources of a Wealthy Class family are also limited.
"Lee Nanfang, I'm really infatuated with you."
Since Helan Xiaoxin had already paid too much and Holan Fusu could not reject her offer of resources, he could only accept it with all his might and change the topic.
Hearing his words, Helan Xiaoxin laughed.
Getting up, pulling his brother out of the mud, he said, "He's in love with me? Hehe, Fu Su, you think too highly of me, your sister. If he is really infatuated with a woman, then that woman can only be — Yue Zitong. "
After hearing Yue Zitong's name, Holan Fusu frowned and said: "He, the young miss that has obtained Helan Family, couldn't it be that his ancestor's grave had green smoke coming from it, and he worked wholeheartedly for you?"
"You don't understand that man."
Helan Xiaoxin shook her head, and the tone when she spoke again, suddenly became unbridled: "Ha, in the eyes of many, I'm indeed a high and mighty Young Miss Helan Family. But my position in his heart is not much higher than a bitch. "Fu Su, do you know what kind of woman she is?"
Holan Fusu didn't say anything.
He had no face to talk to his respectable older sister about whether she was a bitch or not in the hearts of other men.
However, his eyes turned incomparably sinister.
"He was able to fight for me against the thunder, but he was a man who had a weakness for heroism. I dare say that the moment he exposed himself, he regretted it to death. "Maybe he's still scolding me now, calling me the banshee who brought disaster to his life, causing him to lose his life's happiness."
Helan Xiaoxin laughed complacently, and said leisurely: "What a pity, it's already too late." "If I'm not wrong, Jinghong Ming should be furious like a thunderclap right now. He's so angry that he wants to tear him to pieces."
Helan Xiaoxin guessed wrong.
Jinghong Ming did not fly into a rage, nor did he become furious. Furthermore, he did not grind his teeth and swore to tear Lee Nanfang into pieces.
He was watching his wife serve him noodles, with a gentle look in her eyes.
At two in the morning, after he returned late, his wife woke up to serve him noodles for supper. For him, this was a common occurrence.
When his son was young, he had advised his wife that he could eat instant noodles, bread, and the like. There was no need for him to get up and work on the noodles.
His wife replied, "Lil 'Life, do you dare to say that if you weren't thinking about how I would give you noodles, would you also come home when the sun was about to rise?"
Since then, Jinghong Ming didn't try to persuade his wife anymore.
No matter how late he got off work, his wife was right. He insisted on going home, because he knew that the woman in his home was waiting for him to come home. He rested his chin on his hands and watched him eat the noodles, enjoying the happiness of two people.
A truly good man of the Gu family, a wife who truly doted on her husband, would greatly cherish this sort of happiness.
After so many years, his wife's cooking skills were not very good.
It was nothing more than boiling noodles in clear water, adding two poached eggs, chopping some vegetables and coriander, and pouring some old cigarettes over it.
However, Jinghong Ming felt that this was the most delicious noodles in the world.
Inside, it was filled with love.
His wife, who was in her forties, still looked like a thirty year old woman. Her hands supported her round, plump chin as she stared at her life in a daze. She ate the noodles she cooked very carefully.
His son had already gone out for a long time. There was only the two of them at home, guarding this small courtyard, enjoying their warm world together.
Jinghong Ming finished the noodles after a full ten minutes. There was not a single bit of broth left.
After eating, he smacked his lips, as though he was still in high spirits.
Who said that the cold-blooded Jinghong Ming of the Longteng December could not coax women?
If anyone dared to say that Hu Laoer, Xie Laosi, and Qin Laoqi, who knew him best, would definitely knock out that person's mouth full of teeth, spend money to find the best dentist, insert the most expensive porcelain teeth, and then — slap it off.
When Jinghong Ming contentedly lit up a cigarette, he cleaned up the dishes and laid his wife on his shoulder. Then he asked in a soft voice, "When you weren't home, Fourth Bro Xie called to ask if the emergency meeting you had for that brat is over." When I said no, he just said, when you come back, call him back. No matter how late it is, he will wait. "
If Xie Qingshang had called someone else to say that, and the man had just returned home, the woman would definitely urge him to call Lao Xie back.
However, Jinghong Ming's wife would not.
In her heart, nothing was more important than her husband being able to eat her cooking noodles without worry.
Sure enough, Jinghong Ming, who was happily smoking, frowned when his wife mentioned it. "Ai, that guy, I don't even know what to say about him."
"The only thing that can be said is that the charm of a Helan Family girl is too great, isn't it?"
Jinghong Ming wouldn't intentionally hide a lot of things about his job from his wife.
"Hmph, I think he's a pervert."
Jinghong Ming snorted, "The heroism of a grown man is especially exuberant. All these years, Wu Tie had gotten used to him. "He even dares to interfere in my business."
When Jinghong Ming had told Jack these words through the phone without changing his expression, there came a banging on the table and an unfriendly rebuke from the Xie woman. "Jinghong the Tenth, what do you mean by that?"
