Rebirth: 1977

On the way back to Pingcheng, Yin Yuling looked distraught, huddled in her seat with dull eyes.

Tang Qizheng and Li Haomin did not enter the prison area, so Ye Tianshui told them what happened after he got out:

"Guan Yingzi is dead and has been carried away to be sent to the crematorium."

Tang Qizheng was surprised: "How could he die so quickly? Weren't you all fine when you went in?"

The canteen where they ate was visible to the prisoners brought from the women's prison passing by. At that time, Guan Yingzi walked in on her own under the supervision of the correctional officers.

Ye Tianshui glanced at Yin Yuling and explained lightly:

“It’s really fast. If you can’t take a breath, you’ll die.

One reason is that her health was almost exhausted, and the other reason is that she saw her two daughters Yin Yuling and Guan Tingting, and probably...her wish was fulfilled."

Even Yin Yuling felt that these words were fake. She clearly saw that her biological mother, whom she had not yet recognized, had her eyes open when she was carried out on a stretcher.

His eyes were rolled up, his face was blue, and there was blood at the corners of his mouth. He looked very scary!

This is also what Yin Yuling fears the most.

Thinking back to when grandma died, she also died with her eyes open, but she was not afraid and helped her close them.

Li Haomin knew all about the grievances between Guan Yingzi and Ye Tianshui, so he spoke most freely:

"Oh, let her die. She should have died long ago to atone for your sins. It's a bargain for her to just walk away like this!"

Tang Qizheng nodded: "That's right, there's no need to feel sorry for such a person, just let her die. Fortunately, she was able to see her daughter Lingling in the end, which is also her blessing."

Yin Yuling's heart almost collapsed. Guan Yingzi didn't care about her at all. Where did this "blessing" come from?

Why didn't that woman die earlier? Otherwise, she wouldn't have to go through these things that would scare her when she thinks about them.

On the way back, Yin Yuling was surprisingly quiet.

It was only when she got off the car with Tang Qizheng and said goodbye to Ye Tianshui that she asked cautiously:

"Xiao Shui, are you really going to ignore me from now on?

Even if I change my bad habits and obey you in everything, you still don't want to recognize me?"

Ye Tianshui replied solemnly:

"It's too late. After the relationship between us was exposed, there was no room for maneuver.

Yin Yuling, you took care of me when I was a child, and I haven't forgotten that kindness. So, I always wanted to take good care of you, but you... I have already repaid you many times over.

How you want to live your future life is up to you.

You and I will part ways from now on, take care!"

Chen Siyuan was waiting for Yin Yuling at the entrance of the brigade with her children. At this time, she was saying goodbye to Li Haomin:

"Haomin, if you have the chance to visit my house in the future, invite Xiaoshui and our good brothers to come along."

“Siyuan, you should know that Mr. Ye’s current status is different from before, and I dare not invite him to do anything casually.

You also know that he and his sister-in-law have no blood relationship, and the affection they had for each other growing up together was also broken because of what his sister-in-law did, which made him very disappointed, so he decided to break off the engagement in the future.

You are also a capable person. You should have your own opinions on everything you do. You can't just listen to your sister-in-law, a woman.

You and your sister-in-law should stop relying on Mr. Ye from now on. Rely on your own efforts to build a future, stand up straight, and speak confidently at home and in front of others. Isn't that good?"

Li Haomin patted Chen Siyuan on the shoulder and said sincerely:

"I would only say this because I consider you my brother. If you feel uncomfortable or angry with me, I will just consider it as one less brother. This will be worthy of the friendship we once had as brothers."

Chen Siyuan blushed. He was silent for a while before he said seriously:

"Haomin, thank you for reminding me. I never wanted to rely on Xiaoshui...on Master Ye from the beginning.

From the moment we met him, we knew that this young man was extraordinary. Lingling does have a bit of a stubborn temper, but she is actually a very kind person and is really good to me and my son.

But I didn't expect, oh, Haomin, is it that Xiaoshui... Young Master Ye and my Lingling really can't continue to be siblings?

I'm not asking this because I want to rely on Mr. Ye. I just think it's a pity for Lingling to lose such a good brother.

He helped me build a house and bought expensive gold jewelry for my son. I will always remember these things..."

Seeing that Ye Tianshui had already said goodbye to Tang Qizheng and walked towards the car, Li Haomin quickly interrupted Chen Siyuan:

"Just remember it. Young Master Ye has already given you and your wife so much financial support. Live a good life in the future and don't disturb his life anymore."

There was no trace of Ye Tianshui's car, but Yin Yuling was still standing there, looking in that direction and refusing to leave, tears dripping down her face.

Snot was hanging down and the tip of my nose was red.

Chen Siyuan took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears and snot, and asked patiently:

"Lingling, who did you meet today? Are there any relatives related to you by blood?"

The reason why Ye Tianshui took Yin Yuling away was to let her meet some relatives, which is why Chen Siyuan asked this question.

But this sentence touched Yin Yuling's sore spot, and she almost exploded. Thinking of those people who were related to her by blood, she couldn't help but feel discouraged.

This man is the one she will need to rely on for the rest of her life. She looked at Chen Siyuan's concerned eyes with tears in her eyes, and suddenly realized that this man is really good to her.

In the past, I had forgotten Wang Minyong’s ferocity and brutality, and also ignored the fact that this man always gave in to her and allowed her to do as she pleased.

"Siyuan, you are wrong, I am an orphan and I don't have any blood relatives.

Xiaoshui doesn't want me anymore. From now on, I only have you and the child. You have to promise to always treat me well, okay?"

"Mom, don't cry. Dad, my brother and I will treat you well."

The child jumped from Chen Siyuan to Yin Yuling, and his childish words reminded her that she had promised Chen Siyuan that she would treat his son as her own.

She thought quickly and immediately followed the child's words and said:

"Yes, and your brother Xiaojun, you are all my dearest relatives."

Li Haomin sent Ye Tianshui to Xiaolou Lane and said apologetically:

"Director Ye, I have something to deal with in the bureau. I may have to work all night. You should rest first. I'll leave the car for you."

Ye Tianshui understood that it was he who delayed Li Haomin's work, causing him to have to work overtime at night, and he felt a little guilty:

Thinking that this house was empty anyway, he would not sell it and would not live here for long. It was most convenient to find Li Haomin when he came to Pingcheng to do business.

Thinking about always bothering him like this, Ye Tianshui made a plan in his mind.

"Go ahead. You've worked hard today. You can take the car. I won't be traveling far, so the bicycle will do."

This police car is Li Haomin's private car. He cannot do without it for his work, so Ye Tianshui certainly cannot monopolize it.

Ye Tianshui looked at the time. It was just eight o'clock. Most people were still asleep at this time, so he went to Hua Guilan's house.

"Xiao Shui, you're finally here. I was still wondering how to contact you."

Qiao Zhenhua pushed his wife aside and eagerly welcomed Ye Tianshui into the house.

"Aunt, uncle."

Ye Tianshui greeted him with a smile, and seeing Qiao Zhenhua's attitude, he guessed that things had progressed.

"Xiao Shui, go and talk to your uncle about some serious business. Look how anxious he is. I told you that you would definitely come in the next few days."

Hua Guilan complained but her face was full of smiles.

As soon as Ye Tianshui sat down on the sofa, Qiao Zhenhua immediately said:

"Xiaoshui, Zhang Wanchun and Shen Zuping ran away."
