C5 I Have Nothing to Worry about for the Rest of My Life

This video is beneficial to both Chen Ya and me. It can even bring Yang Jun to justice, but it can also prove my weakness.

Right now, I can continue living in the Chen family without any shame. But if the video is made public, what face do I have left?

In the video, my fearful expression, my humble kneeling posture, watching my younger sister being forced, but I did not do anything.

How can my adoptive parents not feel a chill when they see it?

Even I feel ashamed for myself, let alone them?

I hesitated and silently returned home. My foster parents were in the hospital taking care of Ya. I was so hungry that my stomach rumbled, but I had no appetite. I forcefully ate some leftovers.

In ten days, my foster parents didn't come back, and I didn't go out either. I didn't know if anything had happened at the hospital.

But in these ten days, I was hesitating whether I should release the video or not.

That afternoon, my adoptive parents went home and brought Ya home. I quietly stood in front of the door frame and looked at Ya's neck, which was wrapped in gauze, with complex emotions in my heart.

Ya turned a blind eye to me, as if she did not exist at all. She directly ignored me and returned to the room. Not long after, I heard her soft sobbing.

In the living room, my adoptive mother said to me with a cold face, "Chen Qiu, do you have any videos with you?"

My heart suddenly skipped a beat. I pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What videos?"

My adoptive father lit a cigarette. Amidst the lingering smoke, he said in a deep voice, "These two days, the Yang family's attitude suddenly changed. They said that they were willing to compensate Ya for all her losses. Furthermore, they were not going to sue you. Instead, they were willing to compensate a large sum of money. However, the request was to hand over the video. So... Your mother and I will ask, did you have any video? "

It seemed that Gao Yu had already told Yang Jun about the situation. This bastard, seeing that things had gone awry, changed his mind to using money to solve the problem?

I thought about it and replied," Dad, I didn't. "

In my heart, I have already made a decision!

"Alright!" His foster father sighed deeply.

I looked at the two elders. The white hair from the night was real. Half of their originally jet-black hair had now turned white.

The adoptive father said in a deep voice, "This video should be evidence that is very unfavorable to the Yang family. If I can catch it, even if I have to go bankrupt, I will still fight the Yang family to the death!"

Raising Mother also nodded heavily. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said sorrowfully, "My daughter has suffered so much. Does the Yang family still want to use money to settle it? Do they really think that money is omnipotent?"

I looked at the two elders and bit my lips as I asked probingly, "Dad, Mom, can I... Can I go and see Ya?"

" Don't go. " The adoptive mother coldly replied, "You are an eyesore to her. Furthermore, don't call me mother. I am not qualified."

"I..." My eyes were red and I felt so wronged that I wanted to cry. The adoptive father sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go and take a look!"

After getting permission, I got up and walked to the door of Ya's room. I gently pushed open the door. At this moment, Ya was lying expressionlessly on the bed. When she saw me, she sneered and said, "What is it? Are you here to see me make a fool of myself?"

I lowered my head and guiltily said, "Ya, I'm really sorry! It's all my fault."

Ya did not speak and her eyes gradually turned red. After a long silence, she said coldly to me, "Do you know how much I hate you?"

This time, if it was me who did not speak, I knew that all of the apologies were useless. It would only be useful if I stood up at the critical moment.

As for me, a coward who only knows how to speak, I don't have the right to repent.

Tears fell from Ya's eyes. On her pale face, she forced out a smile, "Do you know how much a scar on her neck will affect a girl's future? This scar will accompany me for the rest of my life! In the future, as long as I look in the mirror, I will see this scar. Remembering that night!"

I firmly bit my lips and Ya continued to mock herself, "However, I am very grateful to you. You have made me understand one thing. That is, there are some people that you have known for ten years. They are not trustworthy! You've made me understand that the saying 'the mud can't support the wall' is correct!"

I shuddered, feeling extremely ashamed. How regretful I was that I didn't step forward in time that night.

I did not blame Ya because I did not have the qualifications. This matter started because of me. If Ya did not want me to not be bullied by Yang Jun in the future, she would not have gone to the bar, and there would not have been any subsequent matters.

"Have you seen enough of the jokes? If it's enough, then get lost! I don't want to see you right now. " Ya slowly opened her mouth and her tone was filled with disdain.

I turned around and left the room. I silently returned to my own room and sat there in a daze.

Not long after, I opened the drawer. There was an unsealed music box. I bought it some time ago.

I remember that after school, I passed by a toy store. Ya, who still had a childish heart, took a fancy to this music box and said to me, How good would it be if I could buy one and put it in front of my desk.

I deeply remembered that ever since then, I have been thrifty and thrifty. I ate one less dish every meal and saved money. I was prepared to give her a surprise on her birthday.

Today is Ya's birthday. Originally, at this time, we should have gathered together and sang a birthday song to wish her a happy birthday.

However, we each had our own thoughts and were no longer in the mood.

I stared blankly at the music box for a long time.

By the time I came back to my senses, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

I took a deep breath, took out a piece of paper, and placed Gao Yu's phone on the table. I began to write slowly with a pen, "I'm sorry, parents, and I'm sorry, sister. Please allow me to call you this for the last time. I know that an apology cannot make up for what I owe you.

When you see this letter, I have already left. Ya, this is the birthday present I prepared for you. I hope you will like it!

I don't have the face to continue staying at home. Dad, there's a video on my phone. I hope you won't let this bastard Yang Jun go. You must bring him to justice.

Don't look for me. Whether I live or die depends on me. If I can achieve something, I will come back one day!

Maybe one year, maybe ten years, or maybe even a lifetime, but I hope that the day I come back, you will have a whole new level of respect for me.

Chen Qiu, stay."

After I finished writing this letter, I carried the bag that I had prepared and tiptoed to the living room. I could still hear Ya's soft sobs and the sighs of her parents.

I gritted my teeth and quietly left the house.

When the door closed, there was still a sound. I heard someone walking in the living room. I don't know if it was her adoptive parents or Ya.

I went downstairs and took advantage of the darkness to disappear into the darkness.

"Chen Qiu!" I heard someone calling me. It seemed to be Ya's voice. I really wanted to turn back, but I don't deserve it!

A weak Chen Qiu is not qualified to be Ya's brother!

I believe that one day, I will stand in front of them again and shield them from the wind and rain. I will have no worries for the rest of my life!
