He first took my phone away.
I looked at him pleadingly.
He looked at me as if I were a dog.
"Aunt, you're really useless, getting locked up by them."
"You’re so pathetic."
He opened the phone and saw that there was over a million in pocket money on the secondary card given to me by Zhang Zhao.
He showed a greedy expression.
"Wow, your uncle is really good to you, giving you so much pocket money."
I said painfully, "Xiao Xin, how could you turn out like this? I raised you for so many years and treated you well; how could you do this to me?"
Liu Xiaoxin impatiently replied, "Did you treat me well? If you did, why did you leave me with my parents?"
"You’re all in cahoots; none of you are good!"
"You lied to me, saying you were DINKs, but secretly sought treatment and wanted to have a child!"
"You’re all liars!"
"You won’t let me live well, so I won’t let you live well either!"
He angrily stomped on me a few times.
His kicks hit my stomach, causing me pain so intense that I nearly fainted.
He turned and left, binding my bank card to his phone number and transferring all my money over.
I lay on the ground, filled with regret.
Zhang Zhao, I'm sorry.
I got you involved.
I shouldn't have brought you into this.
Zhang Zhao, I’m sorry…
I gradually lost consciousness.
My soul floated in the air, watching Zhang Zhao struggle desperately in the room. Tears streamed down my face. Zhang Zhao, in our next life, let’s not be a couple. Let’s be strangers instead. That way, I won’t burden you anymore...
My consciousness grew fainter. I fell into darkness.
When I woke up again, it was because someone was shaking me. “Cece, wake up!” I groggily opened my eyes and saw Zhang Zhao's anxious face. I looked at Zhang Zhao, my eyes brimming with tears. Zhang Zhao, it’s been so long.
Zhang Zhao reached out and gently stroked my face. “Cece, why have you lost so much weight? Haven’t you been eating well?” I gazed at him, tears rolling down my cheeks. Zhang Zhao, I miss you.
I looked at him as the tears kept flowing. Zhang Zhao, I really miss you... I truly miss you... Zhang Zhao, my husband...
Zhang Zhao kept comforting me, his forehead glistening with sweat from anxiety. He kept looking at me, continuously reassuring me.
The next day, I slept until noon before getting up. As soon as I went downstairs, I saw my brother's family standing at my door with a box of milk.
I smiled and said, "Come in."
My brother awkwardly laughed and asked, "Sister, you were okay yesterday, right?"
I replied lightly, "I'm fine. What could possibly be wrong with me?"
My brother and Liu Xiaoxin walked in.
My brother took the initiative to say, "Sister, you know that Xiao Xin was hit by someone yesterday..."
I interrupted him, "Was it serious?"
He quickly responded, "Not serious at all, just a little scrape!"
"That's really fortunate."
"But the doctor said that even though it's just a minor injury, it's best to take some Bird's Nest, Shark Fin, or Abalone supplements to recover well..."
As he spoke, my brother observed my expression.
Feigning ignorance, I asked, "What does that have to do with me?"
He awkwardly chuckled and said, "I was thinking that you know more people; maybe you could ask someone to buy some..."
"After all, it's hard to find genuine ones outside..."
I was puzzled and asked, "What does wanting to buy Bird's Nest, Shark Fin, or Abalone have to do with Xiao Xin being hit by a car?"
My brother explained, "Since Xiao Xin got hurt, we need to buy some supplements for recovery!"
I nodded and said, "Yeah, he should definitely recover well."
After a pause, I frowned and added, "That driver is so irresponsible; hitting someone and just running away is practically murder!"
"We must report him to the police and make him pay for your losses!"
