"Ren Qing'an, stop pretending. You might be able to fool others, but what's the point of feigning ntal illness in front of ? The day you ca in, I could tell. You're just trying to save your own skin..."
Inside the hospital room, Zheng Changliang's voice echoed.
"Did Li Weian send you here?"
As soon as the words were spoken.
Ren Qing'an's voice responded.
Chen Fang's heart skipped a beat.
Because the voice sounded too clear, too normal – nothing like what a ntally ill person would express.
Zheng Changliang stood with his hands behind his back.
Casually said, "Yes, he sent . I suppose you know what he wants to do."
Ren Qing'an nodded.
Sighed deeply.
Spoke, "I held on, hoping to see the day when the truth would co to light. Unfortunately, it's just a fignt of my imagination."
Upon hearing this.
Zheng Changliang sneered.
Said, "Ren Qing'an, you had such a promising future, why did you contest with Li Weian? You know his background, his lineage. What do you think you'll achieve by fighting him?"
Ren Qing'an propped himself up with his hands.
Wobbly stood up from the straw mat.
He glanced at Zheng Changliang, saying, "Are you telling that when your fiancée is violated in front of him, you should do nothing? I only did what any normal man would do. Do you think I was wrong?"
"Seems like after all these years, you still haven't figured it out. Anyway, I'm not here to argue with you today."
Zheng Changliang shook his head.
Took a small package out of his pocket.
Tossed it on the ground casually.
Said, "Take it. From what I found out, it's painless. If Li Weian does it himself, you'll suffer more. Don't make it harder for yourself."
Ren Qing'an looked at the unassuming package on the ground and suddenly burst into laughter.
He bent down.
Picked up the package.
Opened it.
Inside was a pill.
Holding the pill between his fingers.
In a trance-like state, Ren Qing'an murmured, "Xijie, I'm sorry. I thought if I waited, the truth would co out. I didn't expect it was all just wishful thinking. Oh well, since it seems endless, I won't wait either. I should co to you now..."
After saying this.
He raised his hand.
About to swallow the pill.
His gaze shifted toward the doorway.
A shock ran through his body as if electrocuted.
"Stop wasting ti, the result won't change. Just swallow it. I'll have soone dress you properly when the ti cos."
Zheng Changliang had no idea what was happening.
He thought Ren Qing'an was afraid.
He imdiately urged again.
"Why are you here?"
Unexpectedly, Ren Qing'an remained unmoved.
Asked a question toward the door.
Zheng Changliang sneered again, saying, "Ren Qing'an, I've said it from the start, don't play dumb with , I don't have ti for your antics. Swallow it, or I'll do it myself..."
Before he could finish.
A voice suddenly ca from behind him.
"If I hadn't co, I'm afraid I'd be visiting your grave."
Zheng Changliang shuddered.
He spun around abruptly.
Saw an unfamiliar face.
Instinctively took a step back, and fearfully asked, "Who... who are you?"
But Chen Fang didn't answer him.
Walked directly inside.
Grabbed Ren Qing'an's wrist with one hand and took the pill from his palm with the other.
Touched, Chen Fang said, "You've suffered. I ca too late."
Hearing such words.
Tears stread down Ren Qing'an's face.
"Ah Fang, you shouldn't have co, leave, quickly! If Li Weian finds out, it won't end well for you. I don't want to harm you!"
Though Ren Qing'an was moved.
He still pushed Chen Fang away with all his might.
Sadly, his frail body had no strength, almost stumbling, if not for Chen Fang quickly supporting him, he'd have fallen.
Taking advantage of the mont.
Zheng Changliang attempted to flee.
Chen Fang swiftly kicked him in the stomach.
With a thud.
Zheng Changliang crashed heavily against the wall.
Just as he was about to cry out.
Chen Fang held the pill up nacingly, "Behave, or I'll stuff this pill down your throat."
Knowing he was no match for Chen Fang.
Zheng Changliang could only obediently squat in the corner.
He supported Ren Qing'an, helping him sit on the ground.
Straightened his ssy hair.
Then leaned close to Ren Qing'an's ear and whispered a few words.
Ren Qing'an was stunned.
Blurted out, "You... you're not tricking , are you?"
Chen Fang smiled slightly and said, "With how well you know , would I lie to you?"
Without thinking, Ren Qing'an shook his head, raised his head, and with hands clasped, exclaid excitedly, "Heaven and Earth, I've waited for this day. I've finally waited for this day. I'm saved, I'm saved..."
Seeing this, Chen Fang.
Felt a pang in his heart.
He held back his inner turmoil and said, "Tell , what on earth happened..."
Ren Qing'an took a deep breath.
His emotions gradually cald down.
But his fists were clenched tightly.
It was obvious.
Although six years had passed.
The anger in his heart hadn't diminished one bit.
Six years ago.
Ren Qing'an, wanting to marry Liu Xijie, resolutely gave up his affluent life and hard-earned foundation in Jindu City, applying to return to his hotown.
Just like that.
Ren Qing'an assud the position of Deputy Director of the Yang'an City Civil Affairs Bureau.
No matter what, for a deputy section-level official in a small county, it was enough for a stable and secure life.
Just as he dread of a lifeti of love and companionship with his fiancée, a catastrophe struck.
It was one early morning in June.
Ren Qing'an went to pick up Liu Xijie from her night shift.
They passed a barbecue shop, and Liu Xijie said she was a bit hungry.
So, they went in, ordered a few dishes, and two beers, and began enjoying the al.
No one anticipated.
That an ordinary late-night snack would ruin their lives.
Just as they were about to finish eating.
Two rcedes-Benz G-Wagons pulled up at the door, and six or seven young n got out.
These guys seed drunk.
Staggering, reeking of alcohol, spewing vulgarities left and right.
Leading them was Li Weian.
The mont they entered, they demanded to order food.
While waiting, Li Weian's eyes landed on the attractive and standout Liu Xijie...
