Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the end, Qi Yunduo was the one who broke the silence. “Is everything on the Internet true?”
Xu Zhengyang would not have reacted like that if it was not.
Qi Shenbai looked at Xu Zhengyang. He could see that Xu Zhengyang was depressed, guilty, and anxious…
Previously, Qi Shenbai had heard from Xu Zhengyang that Xu Jiaojiao had severe depression. If it was just because of Xu Zhengyang, she would not have reacted like this.
However, if soone bullied her, it would make more sense.
“Why did they bully Jiaojiao? Jiaojiao is such a good person, why did they do that?” The anger in Qi Yunduo’s heart burned again.
Xu Zhengyang felt guilty and did not say anything. Instead, he closed his eyes as if he wanted to escape from everything.
“She once told that she had received CCTN treatnt, so she had forgotten so things.” Qi Shenbai frowned slightly. After finding out that Xu Jiaojiao had severe depression, he had asked his doctor what CCTN was.
The doctor told him that it was a type of electroshock therapy. When a patient had severe depression that could not be offset by dicine, they had to resort to such therapy.
However, the thod was not perfect. There would be aftereffects like mory loss, confusion, vomiting, and headaches.
Fortunately, Xu Jiao jiao had only lost so of her mories after the treatnt. There were no other side effects.
Seeing that things were going well, everyone was glad that Xu Jiaojiao was getting better. They did not expect such a thing to happen today.
“Yes, it’s all true.” Xu Zhengyang opened his eyes and replied in a hoarse voice.
‘Does that an she’s regained her mory?’
At the thought of this, Qi Shenbai’s heart suddenly tightened. It was so painful that he could not breathe.
Qi Yunduo did not know what CCTN was. When she looked it up online, finding the pictures and process, tears spilled from her eyes.
“My poor little sister-in-law…”
“What happened to those people back then?” Qi Shenbai suppressed his heartache and looked at Xu Zhengyang.
Xu Zhengyang scoffed. “So of them were expelled from school, while others were sent to juvenile detention. However, they were released in a few days.”
Xu Zhengyang was unconvinced by this kind of punishnt. Her sister had almost died because of what they did, but they received such a light punishnt. It was really unfair.
“What about the photos? Have they all been deleted?” Qi Shenbai was still looking at Xu Zhengyang.
Xu Zhengyang thought for a mont and said, “At that ti, the police said that they had deleted all the photos on those people’s phones, but I’m not sure if there were any backups.”
“We can’t let the photos leak out. Otherwise, Jiaojiao will…” Qi Shenbai stopped mid-sentence. He could not bear to continue, but everyone understood what he ant.
A hint of guilt flashed across Xu Zhengyang’s eyes. “They deleted the post. I couldn’t find their IP, so I couldn’t find that poster.”
“I can help.” Qi Yun Yun wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. “When 1 deleted the posts previously, I rembered that poster’s IP.”
“Alright, then I’ll leave this matter to the two of you. Deal with the photos and don’t let Old Madam Xu find out about this. She dotes on Jiaojiao so much, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to take it. It’s getting late, so you should go back early,” Qi Shenbai said as he stood up.
He wanted to go to Xu Jiaojiao’s side. Right now, he did not want to leave her side for even a minute.
Upon entering the room, he saw Xu Jiaojiao lying quietly on the bed.
In the pitch-black night, in the pitch-black room, Qi Shenbai could not seem to find her for a second.
He walked to the bed in the dark and seed to sense her instinctively. He fumbled with her small hand and gently stroked it. It was so cold.
Qi Shenbai tried to get on the bed. He put his arm around her neck and pulled her into his arms.
Xu Jiaojiao seed to sense sothing and burrowed into his warm embrace.
Qi Shenbai held her like this, not daring to move. He did not know when she had fallen asleep. When he opened his eyes, she was still sound asleep, but there was a tear in the corner of her eye.
He gently wiped it for her, his heart aching to the extre.
He did not want her to get hurt. He wanted to protect her and keep her feeling sunny and happy.
When she opened her eyes, she saw the pain deep in his eyes.
“You don’t want to talk?” Qi Shenbai asked quietly.
Xu Jiaojiao shook her head gently.
“Then shall I get the butler to prepare so food for you?” Qi Shenbai stroked her forehead, but she remained silent.
“If you don’t say anything, I’ll take that as agreent. I’ll get the butler to make your favorite food.” With that, Qi Shenbai got out of bed and walked out of the room.
When he returned, he had a bowl of porridge in his hand..
