C226 (1/2)

After resting for a while, Li Gaobo and his father led the police team out of the train, and Zhang Song's journey continued on. The train won't arrive until tomorrow morning. Fortunately, after last night's incident, the train returned to its previous tranquil state. Zhang Song also moved from the hard seat to the comfortable, soft sleeping carriage, no longer needing to continue suffering.

Just as Zhang Song was riding on the train back to his hometown, Zhang Song's home received a few important guests.

It was ordinary and simple, but it seemed very clean.

The man was Cao Gongde who had come before. The three women were Zhang Guinan, Zhang Yu and Lin Xia. Originally, Zhang Fangxia was also home, but he was deliberately ejected by Zhang Guinan and Lin Xia, so only the four of them were left.

The four of them faced each other, but no one spoke. The room was extremely quiet, but everyone knew that this was the calm before the storm.

Zhang Yu was the first to be unable to bear this quiet suppression, and the first to speak: ”Sister-in-law, I believe that you know the reason why we're here. It's been so many years, so what can't you see?”

”Yes, sister-in-law. Could it be that you will bear to see Fang Xia and Xiao Song suffer here?” We know that you have suffered a lot in the past few years, but Fang Xia and Little Song are after all, still children, and they should not have suffered this much. ” Cao Gongde saw that his wife had started to speak, and agreed with her.

”If you had said this a few years ago, perhaps I would have thought about it. However, some things have already become a foregone conclusion, so is there still a chance to change it? ”It's too late. It's already too late. What should have happened has already happened, and what shouldn't have happened has already happened. Don't you think that it's too late for you?” Zhang Guinan's eyes were like sharp knives as he stared at Zhang Yu and Cao Gongde.

Lin Xia stared at Zhang Guinan with sadness in his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly moved, as though he wanted to say something, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back, but his eyes never left Zhang Guinan's face.

”Sigh, sister-in-law, it's not that we don't want to redeem ourselves, we don't want to make up for the hardships you've gone through. It's just that we haven't been able to find any trace of you. As soon as we heard the news about you, we immediately rushed over. You are our sister-in-law, while Fang Xia and Xiao Song are also our nieces and nephews. Cao Gongde kindly said to Zhang Guinan.

”Yes, sister-in-law. I can understand your feelings, but I can't help myself. After so many years have passed, we still have nothing to put aside. We are all human mothers, we should look forward, even if it is not for our own sake, it is also for the sake of Fang Xia and Little Song. ” When Zhang Yu thought about the past, she really wanted to cry. At this moment, her eyes had already dimmed.

”Isn't that better? In this generation of the Zhang Family, there are only three children. If Fang Xia and Xiao Song don't go back, you should be satisfied. Without them, Little Jia could reasonably become the Zhang Family's successor. Not to mention that I don't want them to go back, even if I wanted them to, they wouldn't go back so easily, like you all have said. I've already experienced the warmth and coldness of family seventeen years ago, so I don't want to see my own children living in a family that doesn't have any feelings for others. Zhang Guinan said faintly.

”Sister-in-law, since we have come, we have made all the preparations. As long as you are willing to go back, I will leave with Gongde and Little Jia. You don't have to worry about these siblings fighting over who is the successor. As long as you are willing, we will disappear forever.” Zhang Yu promised sincerely.

”Looks like he put pressure on you. Xiao Yu, I know that you and Gongde are kind-hearted people, but, there are some things that we cannot decide. ” Zhang Guinan shook his head and sighed.

”Sister-in-law, I understand everything you say, and I can understand it too. I know that you are as kind as you were back then. However, his father was only a year older than him, and public virtue was only his son-in-law after all. It couldn't be compared to his elder brother's flesh and blood. Even though the old man is smiling like a flower with Little Jia by his side, I can see how much sadness and disappointment the old man has hidden behind his smile. Even if he's my biological grandson, he's still far from being able to compare to the old man's grandson he hasn't seen for many years. ” Zhang Yu explained.

”If he had known what life was like with his own grandson and granddaughter, he would not have been so resolute seventeen years ago.” Zhang Guinan gritted his teeth in hatred when he thought of the past. She had never forgotten that year, that time when she was in that family with no humanity to speak of.

Lin Xia, who had never spoken before, could no longer hold it in, and spoke out: ”Xiao Nan, you must know that the future of Fang Xia and Xiao Song is limitless, they still have a lot to do, they have already grown up, and have built a family, so there is a heavy burden on them.” Lin Xia tried his best to persuade Zhang Guinan.
