"Wife, I'm back." The face gaped.

I took a step back and woke up with a start.

I rubbed my head. I was probably really tired, to think that I had actually dreamed of Xie Zongming. I saw the white curtains at night rise up, and it was as if there was a person hiding inside.

I looked at the clock on the wall. It was already midnight, and I was about to go back to sleep when I heard a knock on the door. It was as light as a dream, so light that I couldn't hear it if I didn't listen carefully.

I recalled my nightmare and sneered, "When you were still a human, I wasn't afraid of you. What flowers could you produce after turning into a ghost?"

I went to the door and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me." A man's voice came from outside the door. It was Zhou Jin, but his voice was very soft, as if he was suppressing something.

I immediately opened the door, and as soon as it was opened, Zhou Jin immediately hugged me. He was so strong that I almost fell down.

"What's the matter with you?" "Come in."

"I got beaten up." Zhou Jin leaned on my shoulder and said dejectedly, "My dad beat me up."

"Why?" I stroked his hair to comfort him.

"Because I made Yan Siqi's stomach big." Zhou Jin's actions and expression were very aggrieved when he said those words.

I laughed, not knowing what to say to comfort him.

"Stop acting coquettishly." I pushed him. "I'll apply the medicine for you."

Zhou Jin replied and stopped hugging me. I turned on the light in the living room and carefully looked at the miserable scene of Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin was still wearing the clothes he had worn at the auction today, though they were already rather tattered. It was likely that he had been beaten the moment he had returned home.

His face and body were full of wounds, and Zhou Jin's father had probably beaten him with whips, belts, and the like. His body and face were full of protruding wounds, some of which were still bleeding, some of which had already slightly healed.

As I looked at Zhou Jin's pained expression, I couldn't help but ask while taking the medicine box, "Didn't you run away when your dad hit you?" You just stand there and let him hit you? "

Zhou Jin sat on the ground and looked up at me. His hair was messy and his body was full of wounds, but his eyes were bright. He looked very pitiful.

"My dad got four bodyguards to hold me down." Zhou Jin blinked her eyes as if she was trying to get my sympathy, but unexpectedly, when she blinked her eyes, she found that it was a wound. He took a deep breath and hissed, but then, as if he was afraid that I would discover her, he sneaked a glance at me.

"Does it hurt?" I sat down, opened the medicine chest, and took out the medicine.

Zhou Jin gave a self-deprecating laugh, "No, it doesn't hurt. I've long since gotten used to it."

"Did he hit you often?" I asked Zhou Jin.

"Yes." Zhou Jin acknowledged.

I didn't know what to say when I heard Zhou Jin's words. From the way he spoke to me, it seemed that he was already used to being beaten.

"My father forbade us to disobey him." Zhou Jin looked out the window at the starless sky and said, "My brother and I both suffered a lot of beatings from him when we were young."

No wonder Zhou Ze had such a personality. I thought.

"What does your dad think of Yan Siqi?" I asked him.

"He said I could do whatever I wanted outside, but I can't make a woman's belly big because those illegitimate children are so troublesome."

I already know Zhou Jin's father from the bottom of my heart.

"What about your mother?" I asked Zhou Jin, "Your mother allowed your father to hit her?"

"They think the same thing." He took a sip of the milk I had placed on the coffee table and said, "They are the real pair."

He said, "Because it's a community of interests, the two of them play their own games outside. One of them specializes in keeping beauties, while the other directly uses the movie filmmaker to sleep with those so-called fresh meat."

It was the first time I had heard him speak in this tone.

Zhou Jin leaned his head back and continued, "The lovers they have had recently are all younger than me."

I really didn't know how to comfort him at the moment, so I drugged him and threw him to bed.

I lay down beside him, and he fell fast asleep with me in his arms. His breath fell on my skin and made me feel comfortable.

I felt even worse when I heard him say his parents.

Yan Zhan and Yan Siqi are already so hard to deal with, I think Zhou Jin's parents are even harder, I might as well elope with Zhou Jin.

Thinking like this, I gradually fell asleep. Perhaps it was because Zhou Jin was by my side that I didn't have any nightmares this time around.

When I opened my eyes again, I was looking into a pair of smiling eyes. His eyes were still swollen, but his expression was a bit comical.

He shouldn't have led such a life, and it was time for me to wake up from it.

"Let's escape." "How about Denmark or Iceland?"

When Zhou Jin heard my words, the smile on his face disappeared. He reached out and pulled me into his arms.

"I don't want to run away."

I put my head in his arms and said, "Then I'll go alone."

"Are you going to abandon me?" Zhou Jin said.

I was about to do something when my cell phone rang, then hung up.

I looked at Zhou Jin, not planning on continuing with the previous topic, so I looked at my phone, and saw that the number on it was Cheng Haiyue.

Cheng Haiyue had hung up the phone almost immediately after she made the call. She never did that before.

I couldn't help but call Cheng Haiyue back. The call connected, but I didn't pick up for a long time, so I ended up hanging up myself.

I frowned as I looked at the phone, suddenly remembering how I looked at Cheng Hui while hiding in the corner yesterday. At that time, Cheng Hui's eyes were very scary, I should have warned him.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Jin noticed my expression and asked, "What happened?"

"Just now, Cheng Haiyue called me, but she only rang once, she never does that, I'm worried something might happen to her." I replied.

"Maybe she just called the wrong number."

"Yes." I replied, still a little uneasy.

"Do you need help?" Zhou Jin asked me.

I nodded my head, "Cheng Haiyue's assistant likes Cheng Haiyue to an abnormal degree, but Cheng Haiyue likes your brother. Yesterday, when I left the auction, I felt that Cheng Haiyue's assistant was not right looking at Zhou Ze's and her expression, so I was a little worried for her."

After hearing my words, Zhou Jin slightly frowned. He then picked up his phone, as if he wanted to make a phone call.

"Who are you calling?" I asked Zhou Jin.

"My brother." Zhou Jin replied, before asking again, "Did you see her with my brother yesterday?"

I nodded my head, since Zhou Ze already knew that I was still in contact with Zhou Jin, there was no need to hide it anymore.

"Brother … …" Zhou Jin made a call.

"Yes, I'm outside." "I won't be going home for the time being. When he sees me, he'll probably want to beat me up again."

"Our mother wants me to go back?" "En." Zhou Jin answered doubtfully. He did not know what was on the other end of the phone, but he quickly quieted down.

"I'm not going." Zhou Jin said coldly, "The one in her womb is not my child."

Zhou Jin looked at me and immediately said, "Alright, I understand." The words he said sounded impatient, "Ah Ying wants to talk to you about Cheng Haiyue." Then Zhou Jin threw the phone at me as if he were shaking off something dirty.

I looked at Zhou Jin and put the phone to my ear. I asked, "Is Cheng Haiyue at your side?"
