Komin had been kneeling when she said this. Although it had attracted attention, it was fortunate that they spoke in a dialect and no one probably understood her.
”I said I was innocent.”
As she talked about the past, Zi Yan's tears of grievance welled up again.
”Sister-in-law, let me ask. If you didn't know that we were brother and sister, Brother Ting would tell you that we were innocent. Do you believe me?”
Ke Min didn't know that Zi Yan had been framed, but she was clear that as long as one had the heart, anyone would believe that it was true. It was just like the play she had performed with Zhuo Wei.
Which member of the Zhuo Family didn't think that she was Ting-ge's lover and which one of them didn't think wrongly of her?
Even the ambiguous scenes from the movies and TV dramas were able to deceive the audience through angle and light. There was only one sentence, and it might not be true for the eyes.
As she listened to Ke Min's words, Zi Yan reopened the painful memories. Indeed, many things were just a coincidence, especially the part where she was framed.
In that situation, with her clothes all messed up and Teacher Cheng half naked, and the fact that they had been in the study for so long, if it was her, she might have misunderstood too.
Tears flowed down Zi Yan's face, it turned out that life was made up of one misunderstanding after another.
Misunderstanding and unforgivable emotions were the root cause of the suffering.
”Sister-in-law, I've always had you in my brother's heart all these years. Although I don't know about you in prison, but after living with brother in America for the past few days, I finally understand why I liked brother so much, when I was young, brother treated me very well, although there was no dad, and mom also ignored us, only brother took care of me, and that kind of feeling towards brother must have been 18 years ago when Mommy took me and brother to marry the third man in her life. At that time, brother and I were often bullied by them, and although brother was still young, he always wanted to take me and escape.”
”Get up. I don't want to hear the story.”
Zi Yan originally wanted to leave, but after looking at Ke Min and realizing that she was Zhuo WeiTing's younger sister and that they were very close, she stepped forward to help her up.
”A Yan, I think you should listen to this story. Perhaps this is the fate between you and Wang Tong.”
Ke Min got up, but she told Zi Yan a story.
”What do you mean?”
Zi Yan looked at Ke Min, feeling that there was something in her words.
”Perhaps you don't remember, but I do remember that even though you grew up and became beautiful, your figure didn't change. Roughly 18 years ago, when Big Brother was going to bring me along to escape, he heard crying outside a house …”
”Eighteen years ago?”
Zi Yan looked at Ke Min in shock. This matter had been buried deep in her heart ever since the start. Other than the Song Family's few sisters, no one else knew. How did Ke Min know about this?
”I don't know if it's related to you, but from that moment on, your appearance was engraved in my heart. Before that, I was the only one who treated you well.”
She picked up her coffee to hide the bitterness in her heart.
During the entire time she had been with Ke Min, Zi Yan had only spoken five sentences. She had been listening to Ke Min the entire time.
At the same time, her mind was replaying the story of that time. It was a painful memory. Although she remembered what happened at that time, she couldn't remember the person at that time, the big brother who saved her, and she hadn't seen him since that night.
She couldn't help but ask in her heart, was the person who saved her that year really Zhuo WeiTing?
”Why are you saying this?”
Zi Yan stared at Ke Min, not understanding her intentions. How could someone who wholeheartedly wanted her dead be so kind?
There's no reason why. I just want to tell you why I don't like you alone, because you're too similar to that little girl back then. Since then, I've been very afraid of being taken away by others.
Ke Min shook her head with a wry smile. Some matters were really uncomfortable to keep in mind. It felt much better to speak of it.
She had felt insecure before, but now that she had met Brownie, it was like walking out of a quagmire.
”Is there anything else?” If there's nothing else I have to go. ”
Zi Yan stood up and prepared to leave. After being with Ke Min for so long, she still felt very uncomfortable.
Although she had been by her parents' side since childhood, Komin was much luckier than she was.
If she hadn't met so many good people in her life, perhaps she would have been greatly resented. In the past twenty years, there had been four people in her life who had played a great role in her life.
If Komin hadn't lied to her, if the elder brother who had saved her that year was really Zhuo Weiting, there would have been three of them.
Zhuo Weitang, Ah Ma, and Ah Feng were the only two remaining.
Leaving the coffee shop, her mind was racing. If Feng left, how was he now?
She didn't know if the traitor of the Dark Night had been caught yet, but she felt unspeakably sorry for Feng.
Holding the phone in his hand, he never had the courage to pull out the number.
If A-Ting was really the big brother from back then, then she would forgive him for everything he had done, right or wrong. It was all because she owed him so much.
She owed both men their lives, and both men loved her in their own way.
Zi Yan really had no choice. If possible, she didn't want to have a choice. If she couldn't make love, she would have to be friends for the rest of her life.
This was the first time Zi Yan skipped class, she had always been a good student, even in the past, she never skipped class, but today she did.
She never asked Zhuo where he lived. He didn't have the nerve to ask Komin before, so he wouldn't call back to kill him now.
But she wanted to ask him some questions, especially about what happened eighteen years ago. She wanted to know how much she owed him.
Unknowingly, he had actually arrived outside Zhuo Weitang's office building.
Standing below, looking at the building, she felt a little dizzy. After walking for an afternoon, she did not feel tired. Looking at the people walking out from inside, she knew that it was time to get off work.
Thinking back to when she was in Taiwan, she really didn't take the initiative to look for Zhuo Weiting. At this time, looking at the people who entered, she didn't know what to do.
She didn't know his license plate or his phone number. Was he just standing there?
After hesitating for a while, Zi Yan still decided to go up to look for someone, hoping that he didn't get off work early today.
”Miss, may I ask who you're looking for?”
Although it was time to get off work, she was stopped.
”I want to see your CEO.”
