"Xingxing." Nie Yu looked at Liu Xing with so perplexity, taking a while to focus properly, "Why are you here?"
"Mom sent over to check on things."
"Did I call my sister?" Nie Yu murmured.
"Yeah, did you forget?" Liu Xing sighed, "Little uncle, little aunt won’t have any problems, mom told to tell you, she will co to see little aunt, but not right now."
Nie Yu looked despondent, "My sister still doesn’t want to see ?"
"Little uncle, when little aunt wakes up, let’s have a good talk."
"Okay." Nie Yu responded, continuing to stare blankly at the operating room.
Liu Xing shook his head and didn’t say anything more.
He didn’t know how to describe this little uncle of his; little uncle cared deeply for him and was especially good to his mother, but had chosen a path no one in the family could endorse.
Little uncle is a righteous person. He used to hide his true identity so well that no one in the family knew. It was by accident that mom found out about his real identity, and despite arguing with him, she couldn’t persuade him to co back.
Dad had known about it long before mom, but kept it from her, leading to a long cold war between them. But after all, they were husband and wife, and in the end, it was left unresolved.
After dad was executed, little uncle sought out mom, and she gave him a harsh telling-off, that unless he gave up everything he’s doing now, she would never acknowledge him as her brother again!
He never understood how his parents, with such differing personalities, had managed to live together for so many years. It was a miracle!
He and his brother are just like their parents in character; one like dad and one like mom. Not long ago, when he visited his brother, he found him even more radical, full of hatred, instilling thoughts of vengeance, even suggesting using Luo Ye’s trust to win her over and marry her, eventually to topple Uncle Luo...
At that mont, he really wanted to slap his brother. While Uncle Luo did play a part in their father’s fate, when it really cos down to it, it was nothing more than Uncle Luo’s simple act of self-preservation.
It’s not that he’s unfilial, or that he’s been bewitched by beauty, it’s just that his personality is so much like mom’s, always able to analyze and think things through calmly...
"The lights in the operating room are off!"
Accompanied by an attendant’s shout, the door to the operating room swung open.
"Doctor, how is it?" Nie Yu rushed over, grabbing the doctor by the wrist.
The doctor smiled reassuringly, "The patient is fine, but whether there will be any sequelae can only be determined after she wakes up."
"Thank you! Thank you!"
...
"Pick up the phone, pick up the phone..." Inside the empty conference room, Luo Ye and Ye Xuan were chatting absentmindedly, when suddenly the phone began to ring frantically.
"Hello, I am Luo Ye."
"Ye’er, it’s , I need to talk to you urgently," ca Liu Xing’s hurried voice.
"Can it be said over the phone?" Luo Ye asked, puzzled.
"No, it’s a matter of great importance. If you can get in touch with Ye Xuan, it would be better to discuss this together."
Luo Ye glanced at the ti, hesitantly replied, "How about first thing tomorrow morning?"
"Ye’er, the sooner the better. I’m afraid of unforeseen complications. It’s about my little uncle Nie Yu; he wants to talk, but we don’t trust anyone else."
"Hold on a second." Luo Ye put his hand over the mouthpiece and looked at Ye Xuan, "It’s Liu Xing; he’s talking about his little uncle Nie Yu, probably wants to turn himself in."
"What a coincidence," Ye Xuan frowned, quickly added after checking the ti, "Tell him we’ll pick him up."
...
Thirty-six or seven years old, average build, beneath bushy eyebrows a pair of spiritless large eyes staring blankly, hair and beard all in a ss - this was Nie Yu.
Luo Ye sized him up, a flicker of incomprehension in her eyes, then smiled at Ye Xuan, "You talk, I’ll take Liu Xing next door."
Ye Xuan nodded, gestured to Nie Yu towards the opposite seat, "Sit down."
Once the door closed, he looked seriously at Nie Yu, "I’ll ask one question first: why rush to clarify things?"
"Because my woman, to keep alive, chose suicide," Nie Yu said coldly, staring at Ye Xuan, "I’ve co because I refuse to be soone’s stepping stone, I refuse to let her die for again.
If you doubt , you can take to the city or provincial bureau, wherever, it doesn’t matter. However, I have one request: protect Qianqian, her background is pitiful, an adopted orphan. Her actions are not of her own volition. I hope, for Xingxing’s trust in you, you can help ."
Ye Xuan nodded, "Okay, start talking; I’ll do what I can based on what you say."
...
Luo Ye poured water for Liu Xing, "How has Aunt Nie been recently?"
Liu Xing nodded, "Mom is doing quite well; she has beco a well-known tailor, recognized by residents of that generation, and she feels very fulfilled."
"Auntie is a woman worthy of respect." With tears glimring in her eyes, Luo Ye earnestly looked at Liu Xing, "Auntie does not need others’ charity, so I am very hesitant to just offer help unasked; Liu Xing, if there is anything you need my assistance with, make sure you let know!"
"I will, Luo Luo, and I won’t be polite with you. Our family structure really is complex. As for little uncle’s case, we don’t ask for rcy outside the law; we only hope for the most just verdict for him. He achieved his position through righteousness, and if he has co to this end, it is also due to righteousness. Sigh!"
