Chapter 351: Playing with Fire – This is the Truth
No one knows how much pain Zheng Xiangqian is in right now.
How angry.
How painful!
Three children.
Those were three precious lives.
Because of Si Huashang, he, as a father, had no choice but to painfully give up three little lives!
If it weren't for Si Huashang.
He's a father now!
But Si Huashang betrayed him and was going to marry someone else!
How could Zheng Xiangqian accept this fact?
How could Si Huashang face herself by doing this?
Si Huashang's behavior made Zheng Xiangqian feel that his persistence had become a joke.
No!
He absolutely could not stand by and watch Si Huashang marry someone else.
"boom!"
Zheng Xiangqian slammed his fist on the table.
moment.
His hands were covered in blood.
Zheng Xiangqian was Old Madam Zheng's only son and the sole heir of the Zheng family. Seeing her son hurt himself like this because of a woman, Old Madam Zheng was heartbroken. She immediately rushed over and cried, "Xiangqian, my silly son! Don't think that just because there's news of Si Huashang and Shi Nanxing's marriage, you can't do anything to hurt yourself because of a shameless woman."
Grandma Zheng's words gradually calmed Zheng Xiangqian down.
Yes.
It's just news of their engagement; they're not actually getting married yet.
Even if you do get married, you can still get divorced.
this life.
He was determined to get Si Huashang.
Old Mrs. Zheng narrowed her eyes, her face full of sinister intent. "It seems the daughter raised by the Si family is nothing special! She's a promiscuous woman. Knowing you were pursuing her, she still managed to marry someone else! Just like Xu Zhizhou, she's a shameless slut!"
At this point, Old Mrs. Zheng looked at Zheng Xiangqian and continued:
"Xiangqian, once you marry her, you'd better train her properly. You absolutely cannot let that slut ruin the reputation of our Zheng family!"
So what if Si Huashang is the daughter of the Si family?
Once you enter the Zheng family's gate, you must abide by the Zheng family's rules. You are a member of the Zheng family in life and in death!
Zheng Xiangqian nodded. "Mom, I know."
My mother is right.
Even though Si Huashang is the eldest daughter of the Si family, once she enters the Zheng family, she has to abide by the Zheng family's rules and can only be Zheng Xiangqian's woman for the rest of her life. He would never allow Si Huashang to betray him.
"Grandma, Grandma!"
As the mother and son were talking, the butler rushed in from outside the door.
"What's wrong?" Old Mrs. Zheng turned her head unhappily.
The housekeeper looked at Old Madam Zheng and Zheng Xiangqian with a complicated expression, unsure of how to begin.
Seeing that the housekeeper remained silent, Old Mrs. Zheng frowned slightly and scolded, "Speak up! Are you mute?"
The butler then spoke up, "Madam, Miss Xu, Miss Xu is dying. Dr. Wang asked me to inform you and the young master to see Miss Xu one last time."
This Miss Xu is naturally referring to Xu Zhizhou.
To see him one last time.
Hearing this, Old Mrs. Zheng inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
Better to die.
It's okay to die.
They say evil deeds live on for a thousand years, and she was afraid that Xu Zhizhou wouldn't die this time either.
Xu Zhizhou's death will save her a lot of trouble.
Unlike Old Mrs. Zheng's coldness, Zheng Xiangqian's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. He grabbed the butler's shoulder, his eyes bloodshot, and said, "Say it again! What did you say about Zhizhou? Say it again!"
The butler's forehead was covered in cold sweat. "Young Master, Miss Xu is bleeding heavily and is dying!"
Zheng Xiangqian felt as if all his strength had been drained away in an instant.
Xu Zhizhou has always been in very good health.
It's just an abortion!
How could she not be able to do it!
"You're lying to me!" Zheng Xiangqian said angrily, "You're lying to me, aren't you?"
The butler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He had never seen Zheng Xiangqian show much affection for Xu Zhizhou before, so why was he reacting so strongly to the news that Xu Zhizhou was in trouble?
The butler had no choice but to repeat what he had just said.
"what!"
After hearing the butler's words clearly, Zheng Xiangqian let out a painful roar and then rushed towards the Western clinic like a madman.
fast.
This startled Old Mrs. Zheng, who quickly said, "Quick, quick! Find someone to follow the young master."
Her son has always been very affectionate.
Given that he and Xu Zhizhou grew up together, the person who would find it hardest to accept Xu Zhizhou's sudden death is none other than Zheng Xiangqian.
Inside the small clinic.
Xu Zhizhou lay on the cold operating table, his face pale, holding the surgical light above his head.
At this point, she was clinging to her last breath and began to tour the lanterns.
She remembered the day she first met Old Master Zheng at the orphanage.
The old man of the Zheng family was very kind. He started growing a beard when he was in his twenties, and by the time he was forty, his beard was already quite long.
When she smiles, her eyes almost become slits, giving her a very approachable look.
The old man of the Zheng family squatted down in front of her, smiling and extending his hand to her, "Little girl, would you like to come home with me?"
Xu Zhizhou nodded. "I'm willing."
Xu Zhizhou grew up in an orphanage without parents. He originally thought that being taken back to the Zheng family by the patriarch would be the beginning of happiness.
did not expect.
It was the beginning of a nightmare.
Because she had been a child bride in the Zheng family since childhood, she could not refuse Zheng Xiangqian.
They also had no right to refuse Zheng Xiangqian.
She was like Zheng Xiangqian's slave.
She had to do whatever Zheng Xiangqian asked her to do, no matter when or where, as long as Zheng Xiangqian had a need, she had to serve him.
In the eyes of the Zheng family, she and Zheng Xiangqian were childhood sweethearts who had a deep and innocent relationship.
But nobody knows.
Zheng Xiangqian is such a dark and disgusting person, he's like a madman!
Stubborn and irritable.
Because Zheng Xiangqian was five years older than her, and boys mature earlier, she had never had a good life since she came to the Zheng family.
Zheng Xiangqian really liked her new toy.
I smile at her when I'm happy.
When he's unhappy, he'll trample on her and insult her without any mercy.
these years.
On the surface, she has only had three abortions.
in fact.
She has had many miscarriages.
Xu Zhizhou can't even remember when she had her first miscarriage.
She's only in her early twenties.
Xu Zhizhou didn't know why he had let his life turn out this way.
Over the past ten years or so, Xu Zhizhou has considered running away.
But she had nowhere to escape.
The Zheng family confiscated the household registration book and ID card.
Where could she possibly escape to?
She escaped when she was 19.
But less than two hours later, the Zheng family discovered it.
That time, Xu Zhizhou was beaten so badly that he was covered in bruises and had to stay in bed for more than three months before he could barely recover.
since then.
Xu Zhizhou dared not run away again, because the last escape had left a deep shadow in her heart.
As he thought about it, tears streamed down Xu Zhizhou's face.
She hates being a girl!
She hates parents who favor sons over daughters even more!
in case.
If there is an afterlife, she absolutely does not want to be a girl again.
in fact.
Death was not a source of fear for her.
But liberation.
very nice.
She will never have to face Zheng Xiangqian, that pervert, the moment she opens her eyes again.
Just when Xu Zhizhou felt he couldn't hold on any longer--
boom.
The operating room door was pushed open, and a figure rushed in, hugged her tightly, and cried out, "Zhi Zhou! Zhi Zhou! I don't want you to leave me! You'll always be mine!"
This is Zheng Xiangqian; I smell a familiar scent.
Xu Zhizhou felt a churning in his stomach and thought he was about to vomit.
Nausea.
Disgusting!
Why is it that even in death, she cannot escape Zheng Xiangqian's control?
Why can't she take control of her own life?
Xu Zhizhou turned his head away in disgust, unwilling to look at Zheng Xiangqian.
But Zheng Xiangqian went berserk, using his hands to turn Xu Zhizhou's head around and kissing him wildly.
"Zhizhou! Open your eyes! Open your eyes and look at me!"
"You are the person I love most, how could you leave me?"
"what!!!"
"Zhizhou!"
"......"
Xu Zhizhou closed her eyes in anguish, and no matter how Zheng Xiangqian called out to her, she did not respond.
Zheng Xiangqian held Xu Zhizhou's body and wept bitterly.
Si Huashang!
It's all Si Huashang's fault.
If it weren't for Si Huashang, he wouldn't have made Xu Zhizhou have so many abortions; if she hadn't had those abortions, Xu Zhizhou wouldn't have died.
Now the child is gone.
Xu Zhizhou is gone too.
The more Zheng Xiangqian thought about it, the more unwilling he felt, and he held onto Xu Zhizhou's body, refusing to let go.
Even when Old Mrs. Zheng arrived, Zheng Xiangqian was still holding Xu Zhizhou's body.
With tears in her eyes, Old Mrs. Zheng said, "Xiangqian, I know you can't bear to part with Zhizhou, but the dead can't be brought back to life. Let go, my good child, let go! I promise you, I will definitely help you marry Si Huashang."
"Si Huashang can only ever be a daughter-in-law of the Cheng family!"
Hearing what Old Mrs. Zheng said, Zheng Xiangqian reluctantly let go of Xu Zhizhou.
The Zheng family did not give Xu Zhizhou a grand funeral.
They even concealed the news of Xu Zhizhou's death.
They buried Xu Zhizhou anywhere they found and told the public that he had gone abroad to study.
Old Mrs. Zheng is a Buddhist and extremely concerned about her reputation. If people find out that Xu Zhizhou died on the operating table because of an abortion, what will become of the Zheng family's reputation?
Furthermore, Xu Zhizhou had no relatives in this world, and as long as the Zheng family didn't say anything, no one would know that Xu Zhizhou was dead.
No one knew that someone had been missing from this world.
After Xu Zhizhou's death, Zheng Xiangqian was depressed for several days, but before even the seventh day after Xu Zhizhou's death had passed, Zheng Xiangqian reverted to his former ways and began frequenting brothels.
half a month later.
Si Huashang and Shi Nanxing successfully held their wedding.
The union of a handsome man and a beautiful woman was widely reported by major media outlets, and for a time, the couple became a popular topic of conversation.
The two were very much in love.
Only two months after their marriage, news broke that Si Huashang was pregnant.
When Zheng Xiangqian saw the news, he angrily smashed a vase, picked up a fruit knife, and stabbed Shi Nanxing's face in the newspaper in a fit of rage.
If it weren't for Shi Nanxing, Si Huashang would definitely have chosen her.
in the following time.
Zheng Xiangqian is still pursuing Si Huashang.
However, neither the Si family nor the Shi family were people Zheng Xiangqian could afford to offend. He could only stand at a distance and fantasize about Si Huashang, and he didn't even have the chance to say a word to her.
But the more unattainable something is, the more precious it becomes!
The more Si Huashang ignored Zheng Xiangqian, the more madly Zheng Xiangqian loved her.
Since Si Huashang and Shi Nanxing got married, Zheng Xiangqian has been like a voyeur, carrying a telescope every day to spy on Si Huashang's every move along her usual route.
Even more terrifying, Zheng Xiangqian's room was covered with photos of Si Huashang, and there were even clothes that Si Huashang didn't want, which he bought at a high price from the Si family's servants.
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, Zheng Xiangqian received news that Si Huashang, who was visiting relatives in Hong Kong, would be having dinner at a hotel owned by the Zheng family that evening.
Moreover, the private rooms have already been booked.
This was incredibly good news for Zheng Xiangqian.
For Zheng Xiangqian, if he couldn't have something, he would rather destroy it than let someone else have it.
not to mention.
He sacrificed so much for Si Huashang, losing Xu Zhizhou and his own flesh and blood.
and so.
He planned to confess his feelings to Si Huashang in person, and if Si Huashang accepted him, he would immediately take her to the hospital to abort the illegitimate child in her womb.
If Si Huashang refused, he would burn her to death.
Zheng Xiangqian even prepared gasoline.
However, just as Zheng Xiangqian was transporting gasoline to the hotel, he was involved in a serious car accident on the way.
At the moment the vehicle crashed, the gasoline in the trunk was also spilled. Coincidentally, Zheng Xiangqian had just lit a cigarette a minute before the accident.
boom!
The vehicle exploded instantly when the lit cigarette came into contact with the gasoline.
Zheng Xiangqian was burned to death.
By the time Old Mrs. Zheng arrived, Zheng Xiangqian had already been burned to a crisp.
Grandma Zheng cried so hard she fainted. "My son! My son! How could you leave like this? How am I supposed to live now? Xiangqian, my son, open your eyes, please open your eyes and look at your mother!"
