Yin Shuiling let go of Liu Wanxin’s waist. She lifted her head up to look at Yin Muchen. She nodded her head, meaning that she could manage this, and she was asking him to leave.
Yin Muchen looked at the expression on Liu Wanxin’s face, and he could only leave.
Hu Ya shut the door of the hospital ward.
Only Liu Wanxin and Yin Shuiling were left behind in the ward. Yin Shuiling was obedient as she knelt down. Liu Wanxin had a cold expression on her face as she started off, “I asked you to stay behind because I had something that I wanted to ask you. My son is bewitched by you now. He does not have much truth in his words.”
Yin Shuiling nodded her head and said, “Aunty, you can ask me then. I swear that I would not lie to you.”
“Where is Yin De?” Liu Wanxin asked upfrontly.
Yin Shuiling’s thick and long eyelashes were stained with tears. She looked pretty yet frail. “My dad is addicted to drugs. I sent him to the drug rehabilitation centre a while ago, but he managed to escape.”
“Addiction to drugs?” Liu Wanxin was shocked before she burst out into loud laughter. “Haha! Yin De is addicted to drugs? Haha, this is really karma. He escaped the centre? Where did he go to?”
Yin Shuiling shook her head and said, “I do not know. He has been missing for two months now, and the police have been looking for him.”
Liu Wanxin’s heart was full of hatred. Yin De was already addicted to drugs. Where could he escape to? Where did he go? He should be caught and be tortured in the drug rehabilitation centre. She heard that the rehab centre was hell on earth!
How did he still manage to escape the law?
“How did he manage to escape? The security in the drug rehabilitation centre is so strict.”
After she brought up this point, Yin Shuiling’s eyes were a little wet. She drooped her gaze and pouted her small lips as she said, “My dad did a transaction with a person/ That person got him out of the centre, and he…sold me off to that person…”
Liu Wanxin froze slightly, before she let out a cold snort. She was relentless as she sarcastically said, “Both father and daughter would battle it out with one another? This is really so deserving of you two!”
Yin Shuiling took a breath through her reddened small nostrils, and the tears in her eyes just flowed down like that.
“Are you crying right now? What are you crying for?” Liu Wanxin said unhappily.
“I am not.” Yin Shuiling wiped her tears away. Her voice was soft and coy as she spoke extremely gently, just as if she was a small, pitiful rabbit.
Liu Wanxin was silent for a few seconds before she asked, “Did you send Yin De to the drug rehabilitation centre? You still made a police report after he managed to escape?”
“Yeah.” Yin Shuiling nodded her head.
“Then why are you still blaming Yin De for selling you off? You do not have any more value to Yin De anymore. You even harmed him! It would be weird for him not to sell you off!”
Yin Shuiling did not say anything.
She allowed Liu Wanxin to mock her. Liu Wanxin had this capability to do so, and this was what Yin Shuiling had to face.
“Let me ask you, my son made Xiao Qing go away. Where did Xiao Qing offend you in?”
Yin Shuiling froze, had Yin Muchen dealt with Xiao Qing already?
Why?
Yin Shuiling thought of the scar on her face and remembered the time the gas chamber in the kitchen exploded. Could it actually be…Xiao Qing’s doing?
No wonder Liu Wanxin would be so out of control just now as she used the feather duster to hit him. If she were Liu Wanxin, she would also not bear for her son to challenge her one time after another just because of the daughter of her enemy.
Yin Shuiling felt that her heart was all warm. She just knew that he would protect her!
“Aunty…” Yin Shuiling went to hold Liu Wanxin’s hands.
“Go away, don’t touch me!” Liu Wanxin shook her small hand off with hatred.
Yin Shuiling also did not feel despair. She lowered her small head as she placed the dent on her left cheek on the palm of Liu Wanxin’s hand. Liu Wanxin wanted to take her own hand back, but when she felt that uneven scar on her hand, she froze.
Yin Shuiling’s skin was extremely smooth. It was as smooth as a peeled egg. Her skin was perfect without any flaws, so that 20cm scar on her face was extremely obvious.
“What is… wrong with your face? Did you get disfigured?” Liu Wanxin asked her.
“Yeah, my face was scarred with a broken piece of glass. It was done by Xiao Qing, so Aunty, Xiao Qing is not a good person. She stayed by your side to stir up trouble. Don’t blame older brother for that.”
Liu Wanxin was too provoked after knowing what happened to Yin De. Lately, she was extremely easily provoked, but in her bones, she was still that female university student, and she was kind and pleasant.
She knew what it meant to be disfigured as a girl.
But she did not appear to be pitiful on the surface at all, but she seemed very disgusted as she pushed Yin Shuiling away. “Go away, ugly monster. This is your retribution.”
Yin Shuiling was upset as she nodded her head. “Aunty, it’s likely that Xiao Qing was only interested in your money. She did not treat you sincerely at all. That time when Older Brother brought me over to your home to visit you, when that bucket of hot water splashed over, she was in shock as she ducked behind your wheelchair. She even used you as her shield.”
Liu Wanxin knew the time she was referring to. Yin Shuiling went over to her home just once, and actually, she was clear inside her heart on how sincere Xiao Qing treated her, but she was indebted to Xiao Qing’s parents, so she was exceptionally caring and forgiving towards Xiao Qing.
“Hmph, you are telling me that you were the one who saved me that time?”
Wasn’t that the truth?
Xiao Qing had ducked behind her wheelchair and at that time; Yin Shuiling had saved her.
“I did not mean it that way,” Yin Shuiling explained quickly.
“Okay, that’s all, I don’t want you to say anything more. You’d better leave. I don’t want to see you.” Liu Wanxin pushed her as she said, “Yin Shuiling, I will tell you frankly, I will never be able to accept you, the things that you did in the past are a thorn in my heart, and when I go and think about them, I would think that both you and Yin De are wolves hiding in sheep’s clothing. No matter how much my son likes you, as long as I am around for one day longer, I would not allow you to step inside the doors of my house. You should give up on this hope.”
“Aunty.” The tears in Yin Shuiling’s eyes flowed down mercilessly. She used her small hand to tug onto the sleeve of Liu Wanxin’s shirt. She choked up as she begged her, “I know that I have hurt your heart. I am sorry towards both you and Older Brother, but I really did not do it on purpose. I did not know… I only worked hard to fulfil my filial duties…
“Aunty, I really do not wish for you to forgive and accept me again, but I am begging you to give me a chance to repay my sins. Xiao Qing has left, and I am begging you to let me stay behind to take care of you… Don’t you hate me? If you hate me, then you can insult me all you want. You can use me as a maid. You can do whatever you’d like… I really want to make it up to you. I’m begging you to give me a chance.”
“Hah, haha.” Liu Wanxin laughed and said, “Why do I have to give you a chance? I will not give you any chances. I want you to live the rest of your life in deep regret. I want you to feel regret for the rest of your life!”
Liu Wanxin’s words rang out clearly in Yin Shuiling’s ears. Yin Shuiling suddenly thought of the day outside the drug rehabilitation centre when her father pointed at her and said, I will curse you to never find happiness in your life. You will never be together with Yin Muchen…..
The grievances that happened between the previous generation, she was not involved in it in any way, but now, all of the sins were all laid on her shoulders.
There were some things that she really did not know how she was going to repay.
It was just as if there was a random day that she was indebted to everyone on earth.
“Aunty, I am begging you, don’t treat me like this. I really knew what I did wrong… Give me a chance to take care of you. Give me a chance to love Older Brother properly. I can do it very well, I really can…” Yin Shuiling looked at Liu Wanxin’s firm expression on her face. She was shaking as she used her small hand to hold onto Liu Wanxin’s hands. Liu Wanxin was curling up, and she used force to hold onto her hand before she brought it to her flat stomach. “Aunty, here…can this be exchanged for a chance?”
Liu Wanxin froze. Her eyes that did not have any focus in them shifted over to Yin Shuiling’s face. “What do you mean? Are you… pregnant?”
Yin Shuiling shook her head, “I am not.”
“What are you doing then, fooling around with me? Is this fun for you?” Liu Wanxin retracted her hand back quickly, she was irritated as she growled out loud, “Get lost, you’d better get lost!”
Yin Shuiling’s eyes were flooded completely with her tears. She used one small hand to cover her shaking lips and another hand to tug the edge of Liu Wanxin’s shirt. “Aunty, I am sorry, I do not want to hide this from you. I am unable to get pregnant anymore, the doctor said that I would not be able to get pregnant anymore… I, when I was 18 years old, I miscarried a child…”
Liu Wanxin widened her eyes as she said, “What?”
“Aunty, that child was Older Brother’s, you are the grandmother of that child…”
Liu Wanxin’s face was pale. She quickly stretched her hand out to push Yin Shuiling away, she shook her head and said, “I do not believe it. You are bluffing. I would not believe this… My son had never told me anything about this…”
“Aunty, Older Brother doesn’t know anything about this. He doesn’t know that the child was his, I did not tell him about it. The year I was 18, there was a time when Older Brother saw me come out of a hotel with a boy. He misunderstood me… At that time, my mother passed away, and my father was in prison. I found out that I was pregnant, he was very very angry, and he forced himself onto me, and I had a miscarriage…”
Liu Wanxin suddenly thought of what Yin Muchen had told her in the past. He had raped her before. She lost a large amount of blood underneath him, and she was even unable to close her eyes…
Yin Muchen never said that she had a miscarriage, but thinking about it now, he must have purposely omitted this part because he thought that the child was not his, so he did not dare to say it. He was afraid that she would not like Yin Shuiling after he said it.
The corners of Liu Wanxin’s eyes were wet. Huge beads of tears fell down, and she looked at Yin Shuiling as she complained, “It is all your fault! Why did Ah Chen think that the child was not his? You must have been promiscuous! How old were you at that time? Only 18 years old? how many boys did you date? Are you shameless or what?”
“I did not, I did not, Aunty. I only had Older Brother one person alone… I am not shameless, but I was shameless because that was Older Brother. I slept with Older Brother when I was only 15 years old…”
“What?” Liu Wanxin’s eyes that were unfocused contracted upon hearing her words.
“Aunty, at that time, I also did not know what to do. I was 15 years old. my parents gave me a slap before they locked me up in a room. They did not allow me to contact Older Brother. I texted Older Brother and called him. Older Brother did not bother with me, and it was probably that time that Older Brother found out that my father was his enemy, and he distanced himself from me…
“There was a day where I suck off to look for Older Brother. Older Brother was drunk, and he hugged me as he said my name again and again. He even said that he wanted me. He said that he’d wanted me for a long time. I did not understand what he meant when he said that he wanted me. I only innocently thought of making Older Brother happy…
“The three years that followed, from 15 years old to 18 years old, I always slept with Older Brother… Older Brother did not know that it was me. The people by Older Brother’s side all also did not like me. They did not tell Older Brother that it was me. They only texted me and asked me to go over. I was afraid that Older Brother did not want me, and I did not dare to tell him… I did not know that it would lead to a misunderstanding. I also did not know I got pregnant, until I miscarried later on…”
Liu Wanxin listened on, and her hands and feet were icy cold. The girl that was tugging her did not say anything more and only cried. The quiet hospital ward was filled with the sounds of her depressed crying. Liu Wanxin’s tears flowed down without any control. She shut her eyes and said three words, “Creating such sins.”
