Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Wang Erhai looked at Liang Xinghua's wretched appearance kneeling before him, and not only did he feel not a shred of sympathy, he grew even angrier:

"What use is kneeling to me? This is all the evil you brought on yourself!"

But Liang Xinghua acted as if he hadn't heard Wang Erhai's words; instead, he fiercely yanked his daughter over and forcibly pressed her down to kneel before Wang Erhai as well:

"Daughter, quickly open your mouth and beg your Brother Erhai, ask him to take you in — as long as he takes you in, you won't have to follow me and suffer anymore!"

Liang Henlan knelt on the ground, yet simply stared fixedly at Wang Erhai; that gaze held no anger, no pleading — only a pool of dead water.

Liang Henlan just knelt there, just stared like that, dull and stupid, like a block of wood, and for a long time did not speak.

Seeing her like this, Liang Xinghua grew frantic:

"Speak up! Hurry and beg your Brother Erhai, hurry up!"

Liang Xinghua slapped Liang Henlan across the face twice.

"Bang bang" — two dull thuds, landing solidly on Liang Henlan's small body.

Yet Liang Henlan still did not speak; she remained like a wooden post.

"Open your mouth and talk! Are you mute? Hurry up!"

Liang Xinghua, anxiety burning him up, reached out and forcefully pinched Liang Henlan's mouth, roaring:

"Can you say a sentence or not? Don't act mute!"

Even the police couldn't bear to watch and hurried over to pull him away:

"Don't do this, you've pinched the child's mouth crooked! How can you be a biological father?"

Liang Xinghua burst into loud sobs:

"I'm unworthy to be a father, unworthy to be human, I deserve to suffer — but my daughter is innocent!"

The police officer couldn't help but feel sympathy:

"Do you have any other relatives?"

Liang Xinghua shook his head:

"No more, all dead."

The police officer sighed:

"But you can't force someone to adopt your daughter either; this has to be mutually willing."

The police officer looked at Wang Erhai, seeking his opinion.

From start to finish, Wang Erhai's expression was icy cold, without the slightest change.

He said in a frigid tone:

"He can send her to whoever he wants — don't come looking for me! I have no such obligation, and no such responsibility!"

Wang Erhai had been hurt through and through by Liang Xinghua, and on top of that the recent matter with Zhou Zhihao had left his heart cold as ice, so he no longer let sympathy flood him; he was no longer as easygoing as before.

Most importantly, his wife Zhang Yueran was three months from giving birth; adopting a child at this time would be inappropriate!

He might not even manage to take care of his own child — how could he go take care of someone else's?

Is that even possible!

At this point the police officer said to Wang Erhai:

"General Manager Wang, you're a capable entrepreneur — you really won't help a little? He is your fellow villager, after all?"

Wang Erhai glared at him:

"You want to help so much? Then you take Liang Xinghua's daughter home and raise her! You're here to help me deal with trouble, not to stand there talking without your back aching!"

The police officers had nothing to say.

Wang Erhai then said:

"Just handle it according to the law — handcuff who needs handcuffing, detain who needs detaining! That's the end of this; I'm very busy, no time to wrangle with you!"

Having said this, Wang Erhai turned and left.

Liang Xinghua watched Wang Erhai walk away so decisively.

He flew into a rage out of humiliation:

"Wang Erhai, how can you be so heartless! Just you wait! You'll get your retribution!"

Hearing this, Wang Erhai's body trembled slightly.

He turned back to look at Liang Xinghua, his eyes revealing a trace of killing intent.

"Liang Xinghua, what do you mean by this? Threatening me?"

Liang Xinghua didn't speak, just glared at him viciously.

Wang Erhai couldn't help cursing:

"You're fucking sick in the head — after what you did to me before, who gave you the face to come back looking for me? Scram!"

After Wang Erhai left, Liang Xinghua was taken to the police station by the police.

The police didn't detain him, because if they detained him, what would become of his daughter?

So they just gave him a warning and then let him go.

Liang Xinghua walked out of the police station with a heart full of resentment.

He knew the residential complex where Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran lived.

So he came to the entrance of the complex and stood far off, quietly waiting.

At this time, Zhang Yueran was still continuing to attend classes at school.

She would wait until one month before her due date before starting her maternity leave.

However, now every day for the commute to and from work, Wang Erhai would personally go to pick her up and drop her off.

This day after work, Wang Erhai also drove to pick up Zhang Yueran and take her home, just as usual.

Returning to the residential complex side, Wang Erhai scanned a glance outside through the car window, and discovered Liang Xinghua and his daughter standing right outside the residential complex's main gate; his heart immediately gave a jolt.

If he got entangled by Liang Xinghua, that would be troublesome.

After all, his wife's belly was already very large; if Liang Xinghua caused some mishap, wouldn't that be...

Wang Erhai dared not think further.

He suddenly said to Zhang Yueran sitting in the passenger seat:

"How about starting tomorrow, you go back to your hometown to live."

Zhang Yueran was stunned:

"Why suddenly want me to go back to my hometown to live?"

Wang Erhai then said:

"I see your mother isn't adapting very well here either; might as well go back to your home."

Zhang Yueran, however, said:

"My hometown is too far from the school; if I go back to live there, I'd have to get up an hour early every day, and that's also inconvenient. Here in the county town center, it's close to the hospital; if the baby is born early, we can also rush to the hospital in time."

Hearing this, Wang Erhai didn't know what to say for a moment.

Because he knew, what Zhang Yueran said was reasonable.

"Are you hiding something from me?" Zhang Yueran sensed something was off with Wang Erhai, and asked another sentence.

Wang Erhai didn't know how to open his mouth for a moment.

Zhang Yueran then said:

"I'm your wife; what is there that can't be said?"

Wang Erhai sighed, and only then confessed:

"Today Liang Xinghua went to the company to find me, crying and shouting for me to take in his daughter; I didn't agree, so he threw a tantrum and refused to leave. In the end, the police were called, and the police took him away."

Zhang Yueran was puzzled:

"What connection does this have with you letting me go back to my maternal home to live?"

Wang Erhai then said:

"Just now when the car passed the residential complex's main gate, I saw Liang Xinghua and his daughter. I'm afraid he'll come to the door to harass you. This guy is a madman; I'm just afraid he'll cause some mishap!"

Zhang Yueran looked at Wang Erhai's face full of worry, and for a moment didn't know what to say.

This Liang Xinghua really gives people a headache.

The main thing is, he has been to Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran's residence.

If he follows some other resident past the residential complex's access control, and then finds their home, that situation is truly unimaginable!

This matter could be big or small!

Zhang Yueran then said:

"Alright then, go back and pack up a bit. Tomorrow morning, let my mother take the luggage back first. Then after I finish class, I'll go straight back to my hometown after school in the afternoon!"

She also didn't want any accident to happen.

So even if it's inconvenient, she'd still avoid it if she can.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the one in ten thousand!

The two discussed the matter of going back to the maternal home to live; at this time, the car had also arrived at the underground garage.

Parked the car, took the elevator upstairs.

As a result, the elevator had just reached the floor they lived on.

Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran had just stepped out of the elevator doorway when they saw Liang Xinghua leading his daughter by the hand, standing in front of their home's door.

Liang Xinghua turned his head, revealing a twisted and deformed smile:

"General Manager Wang, I've finally waited until you returned!"
