The Taming of the Ruffian Hero

Chapter 223 Hong Xuan Leaves and Chen Wanxin Confesses Her Crimes

Chen Yuanxi saw Hong Xuan’s red and swollen eyes.

“I won’t interfere in your affairs with Yanyan, but I hope you will at least follow Ziwei’s second will and live a good and safe life. As for you, Zhang Dong, if I know you lead Wenxi to the wrong way, no matter what you helped me, I will not let you go!”

Chen Yuanxi understood Hong Xuan’s meaning and asked him what he wanted to do.

“There are still a few thieves who haven’t been caught. After catching them, I’ll go back where I came from!” Hong Xuan laughed and strode away.

Chen Yuanxi rushed forward and hugged Hong Xuan.

“Dad... can you not leave... can you stay at somewhere and live... you have the ability to live, don’t you?” Chen Yuanxi cried in a sad voice.

“I should have died more than eight years ago, Wenxi. Your father and I are sworn friends. We should go through thick and thin together...” Hong Xuan said in a trembling voice.

“But Mo Qian is not dead!” Chen Yuanxi chocked and almost could not breathe. Seeing that, Zhang Dong also could not help but shed tears.

Hong Xuan sighed and said, “I’m going to let him die...”

“Dad!” Chen Yuanxi hugged Hong Xuan and repeatedly called him.

“Protect yourself, child.” Hong Xuan said with a smile, clasped Chen Yuanxi’s wrist, and walked away without looking back after giving a cold look to Zhang Dong.

Zhang Dong held up Chen Yuanxi, who had collapsed because of sadness. Looking at the back of Hong Xuan, he stood upright and made a standard military salute, liking an immovable bloody flag under the setting sun.

When the two returned to Chen Yuanxi’s original residence, Zhang Dong saw Chen Yuanxi quietly picked up a small statue in the mezzanine of the gate and gently took it to the house.

Chen Yuanxi wiped the dust on the statue in silence. The missing corner of the statue was like a bloody mouth, which would devour him directly.

Zhang Dong had heard the story about the statue.

Zhang Dong found that Chen Yuanxi seemed to cry more than before from sometime.

He did not know what Chen Yuanxi had sent in the text message. He only saw that he deleted all the communication methods of a person. He then saw Chen Yuanxi silently took out a faded red jersey from the room, and cut it into pieces with scissors.

“Lovers should love and believe each other forever,” Chen Yuanxi murmured.

“Lovers should love and believe each other forever.” Chen Yuanxi shouted out.

Then he laughed crazily.

Chen Yuanxi then frantically searched for something. He ransacked boxes and cabinets, and even asked Zhang Dong to dismantle the bed, but he still could not find it. Zhang Dong had silently hidden something in the deepest crack of the backpack.

When Chen Yuanxi was tired and had collapsed on the ground, Zhang Dong dared to walk over and took him into the bedroom.

“I’m sorry. Every time you feel bad, I can’t say or do anything,” Zhang Dong said guiltily.

“Who says you can’t do anything?” Chen Yuanxi suddenly smiled at Zhang Dong and scrutinized him, saying, “You have done it before more than once, haven’t you?”

Zhang Dong only felt his blood coagulated.

That night, Chen Yuanxi frantically rushed to Zhang Dong and tore his clothes.

After a happy night, Chen Yuanxi fell asleep. When he was in tears, he still called Zhao Yuan.

Zhang Dong sat by and watched the statue silently. His heart was bleeding.

After another day, they went to visit Zheng Kai and Gu Xi.

Gu Xi had moved back to Zheng Kai’s house.

“I can’t drive you away this time,” Zheng Kai said with a smile.

“Your mother is relieved to let me take care of you. What are you dissatisfied with? As soon as your mother leaves, I will naturally live in,” Gu Xi said with a smile. At that time, the third skin-grafting operation had been finished and Gu Xi had recovered well. He was no longer covered with many wounds and scars on his body and face. But compared with his former snow-white and smooth face, his face now was like a piece of jade full of cracks and was not as beautiful as before. However, Gu Xi was very happy every day.

Looking at Zheng Kai’s ruddy face and vigorous spirit, one could know that Gu Xi had done much work on cooking and taking care of him.

But Chen Wanxin was not there.

Chen Wanxin had disappeared more than a week after Zheng Kai left the hospital. Zheng Kai thought that Chen Wanxin still chose to leave him at the end of the day. So regardless of his body, he drank for days at home to relieve his sorrow. Gu Xi stayed with him all day long and at last drunk with him.

When they learned of Chen Wanxin again, they were asked to cooperate with the investigation.

Chen Wanxin had sent herself to prison and listed all kinds of crimes for herself. After investigation, it was confirmed that when her parents were arrested, she had bribed relevant officials and threatened an official to charge Chen Yuanxi with using compulsory psychotherapy against Zhu Hui, which indirectly led to Zhu Hui’s death. Chen Wanxin was sentenced to two years in prison because of the two charges. Because accusers did not prosecute or report cases to the security authorities and many things happened a long time ago or were not criminal offenses, Chen Wanxin was not accused of taking photos of Chen Yuanxi and exposing them, cooperating with Mo Qian to cheat Zhao Yuan out of the bedroom and other acts.

Two months later, it was said that Chen Wanxin won the championship in the women’s group dance competition in prison, and was also the director in chief of the competition. Besides, she put forward a better prison management mode soon after she was put into prison, and she now was the leader of a team in the women’s prison. She was also responsible for the management of books, and had made very good contributions. If she continued to do so, it was said that after four months, her sentence could be commuted.

They could go to the prison to visit Chen Wanxin soon, and Zheng Kai seemed very happy.

After knowing Zheng Kai’s schedule, Chen Yuanxi finally smiled happily.

Zheng Kai, together with some former security guards of BC company, had attracted an investment from the shareholders of former BC company. He was preparing to set up a small workshop for children’s military training. But he could not find a suitable place for studio and was busy renting the training site and arranging the corresponding facilities. Chen Yuanxi called Lin Ziwei’s former subordinates several times to consult it and was willing to act as a guarantor. Then as long as the funds were prepared, the problems could be solved accordingly.

Zheng Kai visited Wang Xiang’s parents once a month, and considered them as his father-in-law and mother-in-law. After Wang Xiang’s death, Chen Wanxin had taken care of Wang Xiang’s parents for months, except for taking care of Zheng Kai. Wang Xiang’s parents had hated and blamed Chen Wanxin, but after they repeatedly read Wang Xiang’s diaries and microblog, they gradually felt Chen Wanxin’s sincere and regarded her as their daughter and were more satisfied with Zheng Kai, their mighty son-in law, which could also ease their pain of losing son. After Zhang An’an gave birth to their granddaughter, whose ancestral home is Hunan, named Wang Shixiang, most of their energy was put into caring for their granddaughter and their spirit gradually improved.

Chen Wanxin’s national debt was paid off by Zhao Yuan. The reason Zhao Yuan said also made Zheng Kai unable to refuse the money. When Zhao Yuan’s father was in hospital for the second time, Chen Wanxin had helped him financially, and Zheng Kai gave up his degree because of this matter. Zhao Yuan explained all this in his email emotionally. Originally, this was not something money could repay. Now he could only provide financial help first.

Chen Yuanxi and Zhang Dong lived in the small town for a few more days to help repair the tombs of Lin Ziwei, Zhao Mingjiang, Zheng Zihuan and Chen Tianjiao and so on. Then they went back to Tianfu Village together. Apart from the people and things Zhang Dong should avoid, Zhang Dong went all the way Chen Yuanxi once walked.

When they were in front of Chen Tianjiao’s tombstone, Zhang Dong asked, “Are you going to change your name back?”

Chen Yuanxi smiled and said, “No.”

He was not a qualified official, but he had done his best to be a qualified father.

When it was time to visit Chen Wanxin, Zhang Dong refused to go.

Zheng Kai kept silent for a while and said, “In fact, you needn’t to do so.”

“Without experiencing these things and punishments, I can’t live a good life. Just think that I’ve found an opportunity to atone for what I have done.” Chen Wanxin smiled with tears in her eyes. At this moment, she, without any decoration, looked very simple and beautiful. Even if she was wearing prison uniform, it was hard to hide her beauty.

“If you are still ill, I won’t feel at ease. You have recovered, and I should pay you back,” Chen Wanxin said, turning to Chen Yuanxi, “Brother... can I call you that?”

“Sister, the past has passed like a dream, but the blood relationship can’t be chopped,” Chen Yuanxi said with a smile.

“I know that Zhao Yuan is married. I have written all the things I have done and sent it to him. In addition, it has nothing to do with Zhao Yuan that Xiaoman was pregnant. I used dirty means and in the room I even place... Wenxi... I’m really sorry and guilty... when he got up in the morning, he was calling your name all the time. He thought it was you who was with him that night... I don’t know how Xiaoman got in...” Chen Wanxin said and cried.

“Sister, these are... not important. He’s married and has two children. What can I do? Child is innocent,” Chen Yuanxi said with a smile. He once again thought of his kalpa, which might refer to the fate between Zhao Yuan and Shu Xiaoman. “In fact, I am the one who broke into Wulingyuan by mistake, which is not my ideal hometown.”

The three people talked for a long time. The bell rang and it was time for Chen Wanxin to leave. She stood up and reluctantly turned around to leave. When she left, she glimpsed at Zheng Kai’s eyes.

At that moment, Chen Wanxin suddenly remembered what Zhang An’an had said to her in her wedding with Zhao Yuan that year. Zhang An’an had said, “Zheng Kai has entered your heart.”

When Zheng Kai was stabbed trying to protect her, she scolded Lu Sisi regardless of her image. At that time, there was a deep shadow at the bottom of her eyes.

When the earthquake happened that year, the man with big eyes, bushy eyebrows and stubble jumped into the pool with his arms around her. At that time, her different feeling towards Zheng Kai was recorded.

That year, when Zheng Kai, who had just graduated, was drenched in rain and entered the BC company for an interview from downstairs, she was absent of mind for a long time and unconsciously changed the color of the lamp on the desk from blue to orange.

“It’s all my own unwillingness...”

Chen Wanxin stood still, and kept silent for a long time, her shoulders slightly shaking.

“Zheng Kai! I love you!” Chen Wanxin suddenly turned around and cried to the microphone in tears. Her smile was like a lotus blooming out of the water, which was in full bloom in front of the mottled iron window.

On hearing that, Zheng Kai, a strong and tough man, lost control and cried out loud.
