Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend
Chapter 108 Parents Love Story 24
"Is it delicious?" Xu Er propped up his cheek and stared at Zhang Chunliang who was eating voraciously, with dimples faintly visible on both sides of his cheeks.
Zhang Chunliang put the stewed eggplant with chicken sauce into his mouth. The oily, fragrant and soft taste whetted his appetite. He didn't bother to talk and gave Xu Er a big thumbs up.
Then, the dimple that the owner had tried so hard to hide suddenly blossomed.
"You eat too...don't keep looking at me." Zhang Chunliang's mouth was bulging and his speech was a little unclear.
Xu Er hummed, picked up some food for himself, put it into his mouth slowly and carefully, and chewed it. He seemed to think the dish tasted good. He picked up some more for Zhang Chunliang before lowering his head and continuing to eat.
Suddenly, he felt no movement on the table, looked up with some confusion, and asked, "Xiaoliang, what's wrong?"
Zhang Chunliang stared at him blankly, and suddenly he found it difficult to swallow the food in his mouth.
Xu Er put down his chopsticks, frowned and looked at him, then quickly walked up to him, patted the back of his neck, and motioned for him to open his mouth: "Did you get a thorn stuck in your throat? Or did you eat something bad again?"
Zhang Chunliang subconsciously swallowed the food in his mouth and shook his head at Xu Er. He picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of water.
"No, don't worry about me." Zhang Chunliang spoke slowly. He was thinking, "I just think that the way you eat is a bit like a friend I know."
Xu Er beside him put down his hand. He stood behind Zhang Chunliang, looked at him quietly for a while, and then said softly: "Really? Then you must introduce us to each other some other day."
His tone was calm, but Zhang Chunliang vaguely felt that he seemed a little unhappy.
Zhang Chunliang opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn't know how to start - he couldn't just say, I think you are like a fragment of a person's soul...
After this little episode, the atmosphere between the two suddenly became a little subtle.
Xu Er would still pass the food that he thought tasted good to Zhang Chunliang, and would also take the initiative to add water and rice for him, but inexplicably, Zhang Chunliang felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and the food he ate did not taste as delicious as before.
He was a little annoyed that he spoke without thinking and made Xu Er unhappy.
But he was a little confused - he was just saying that he looked like his friend, so why was he so angry?
"Is your friend's cooking as delicious as mine?" Xu Er asked casually while cleaning up the dishes.
"Oh, no, no." Zhang Chunliang felt Xu Er's softening tone, and hurried down the stairs, diligently helping him clean up the things on the table.
Xu Er raised his eyebrows, and his expression, which had been gloomy all night, finally relaxed, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Oh! Zhang Chunliang opened his eyes wide in surprise - although the two looked completely different, but from this angle! The expressions of the Second and Third Young Masters Xu were exactly the same!
Zhang Chunliang's mind suddenly flashed with the image of that poor guy who was extremely skinny but very delicate and regarded him as his only hope. His mind suddenly twitched and he said the most regrettable and stupid words tonight -
"But he quite likes the food I cook."
"Pah." The white and exquisite ceramic bowl fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.
Xu Er still maintained the posture of holding the bowl, but his wrist was still shaking slightly.
"...Are you okay?" Zhang Chunliang asked this question with difficulty, feeling so stupid that he couldn't breathe.
He felt that Xu Er was about to break into pieces like the bowl that fell to the ground.
"It's okay." Xu Er's voice was very low. His throat rolled and he raised his eyes slightly.
"It's too late, Xiaoliang." Xu Er breathed a sigh of relief, as if trying to calm himself down.
It seems that I have made him angry and the host will order me to leave. Zhang Chunliang thought blankly, feeling a little depressed.
He was about to say goodbye awkwardly, but then he heard Xu Er gently say, "It's not safe to go back at night. The bed in the next room has been made. Go and have a rest for the night."
Zhang Chunliang suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Er, whose expression was calm. He wanted to say something, but in the end he just said goodbye to him sullenly: "...Good night, sleep well."
Xu Er didn't say much, just waved to him, squatted down and started picking up the broken bowls.
Zhang Chunliang walked into the next room with his head down.
The soft quilt was fresh and bright, with a light fragrance. The host had neatly arranged all the items for the guests to use at any time.
Seeing this extremely comfortably decorated room, Zhang Chunliang almost collapsed and buried himself in the soft cotton quilt, rolling back and forth.
After struggling for a long time, he still couldn't sleep, so he sat up and took out the second piece of the main task fragment from his backpack to divert his attention - as he expected, when he was about to finish drinking the orange soda, this piece of fragment suddenly appeared at the bottom of the cup.
Along with it came a system clearance prompt - he was the first player to find the fragments of the main quest clues.
The previous fragment brought him into the memories of a boy named Xiaoping. In the conversation between Xu Aiyong and others, he found that the plot in that memory was closely related to the tasks assigned to him by the system - playing hide-and-seek in the cornfield, catching fish and chatting by the stream, etc.
However, in this plot, Xu Aiyong and Xu Guifen were not in love at all. Everything they did was to find the child named Xiaoping, but the system ignored the existence of this third person and attributed all the activities to the sweet love memories of the two.
This is an extremely malicious misleading. If he had not obtained the fragments and traced back the truth of what happened, he might not have discovered until now that there was an important "third person" between Xu Aiyong and Xu Guifen.
Zhang Chunliang held up the fragment and looked at it seriously for a moment. After making up his mind, he clenched the fragment in his hand, just like the first time he accidentally entered his memories, then lay on his back on the bed and closed his eyes.
Soon, he fell into endless darkness.
A burning pain came from Zhang Chunliang's body, and he almost screamed in pain - he felt like he had been beaten up, and there was no part of his body that didn't hurt.
"Little bitch... open your eyes, I know you're awake." The hoarse voice seemed to be very close, and the hot and sticky breath sprayed on his face.
Zhang Chunliang's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that the voice was very familiar.
He had no control over the body he possessed and could only watch as the owner of the body opened his eyes.
His vision was blurry, as if it was blocked by tears. He could only see a distorted man's head smiling at him.
This man looked familiar. Zhang Chunliang endured the great pain and wanted to see him clearly——
"If you dare to complain to those old bastards in the village, I will not let you off."
The man spat at the boy, lifted his belt, and picked up the mask that had fallen to the ground.
It was Luo Zi, the bastard who made dirty jokes to the children in front of them! Zhang Chunliang couldn't suppress his anger for a while. He finally knew what terrible thing the child he possessed had suffered.
"I will report it. I can recognize the words and I recognize you. You can't escape." The boy's voice was as hoarse as a duck. He screamed desperately for so long that his voice was almost scrapped.
Luo Zi seemed to have heard a joke, and his rough and unpleasant voice burst into laughter: "Do you know who you are? Your parents committed a crime and were beaten to death by villagers. Everyone in the area around Xiaohegou knows about it. Who would believe you, the son of a criminal?"
"My parents didn't do anything wrong. They, they were jealous of our family being able to live in the city, so they deliberately framed us!"
Through this conversation, Zhang Chunliang confirmed that he was still in the body of the boy Xiaoping, but he seemed to have grown up a little compared to the previous memory.
"Who cares about your family's mess? Your family has low political awareness and corrupt thoughts and behaviors. Being beaten to death is your fate." Luo Zi smiled proudly with yellow teeth, "Little bitch, do you know who I am?"
Xiaoping heard from them that Luo Zi's family had a background, so they could openly set up a stall outside the open-air cinema to "give away tickets". It seemed that his brother-in-law was an official in the city, and the villagers did not dare to mess with him.
"Go ahead and report it." Luo Zi put on the mask and listened carefully to the sounds outside the woods in the distance. The movie seemed to have ended. He could still use rice flower beans to attract a few children to play together. "But if that letter can be delivered, I will take your last name, you bastard."
Luo Zi left, leaving behind the mess on the ground and Xiaoping lying on the ground.
Xiaoping felt so much pain that he couldn't get up for a long time. He struggled to touch his face, but felt blood from his nose.
"Xiaoping! Xiaoping--" Xu Guifen's shout came from a distance.
Xiaoping didn't want to pay any attention to her at all, he closed his eyes tiredly. Go slowly, wait until he can sit up and find him, he is really in a mess.
"Brother Xu, have you seen Xiaoping? I changed the soda for him to drink, but I can't find him!" Xu Guifen asked Xu Aiyong anxiously.
Xu Aiyong's voice seemed a little hesitant. He was silent for a long time before pointing in a direction: "There are many children over there, go look for them."
"Brother Xu, please help me look for him. I saw Xiaoping staying at home every day and didn't go out, so I dragged him here to watch a movie. I was afraid that he might get lost..."
"Okay, I'll look south again." Xu Aiyong sent Xu Guifen away, but he didn't rush to look for her. He just squatted there quietly, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Are you waiting for me?" Xiaoping held onto a tree and limped out of the woods.
Xu Aiyong's eyes were a little red. He stood up at a loss, and his usually calm and serious face showed unexpected sadness.
"I bumped into someone. That person had a bad temper and dragged me into the woods and beat me up." Xiaoping's tone was flat. He seemed to be explaining to Xu Aiyong, but also seemed to be convincing himself.
"Hey, hey, is that so?" Xu Aiyong pursed his lips and supported him with his hands. "I'll take you home. You'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
Xiaoping was not in the mood to talk. Ever since Xu Aiyong burned the only letter left by his parents, he no longer wanted to talk to him.
Xu Aiyong felt very guilty and would send him some things from time to time, such as firewood from the mountains, wild vegetables picked, and fruits.
Gradually, Xiaoping was willing to talk to him.
Xu Aiyong took him along a wild country road that no one usually walked on. The road was very dark, with only moonlight and the noisy chirping of insects. The two returned to the village in silence, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
"Tell me about it, what movie did you just watch?"
Xiaoping had never watched a movie since he came to the village, so when Xu Guifen invited him today, he agreed by accident.
But he didn't expect that in the end he didn't see the plot of the movie.
"Hmm? Oh! Oh! Movie... let me think..." Xu Aiyong was in a trance. It took him a while to realize that Xiaoping was talking to him. He coughed twice and repeated the plot of the movie in a dry language.
"...Then, the police discovered the truth, released the wrongly accused Li Guiping from prison, and sentenced the bad guy who framed her and put her in prison. Everyone applauded when they saw this!"
"Well, bad guys will get their comeuppance, and good guys will get vindicated," Xiaoping concluded.
"It's like this...the Lord of Heaven is watching us." Xu Aiyong lowered his voice a little and replied meaningfully.
Xiaoping stopped talking again.
Xu Aiyong sent him back to the gate of the yard and was about to leave when Xiaoping stopped him.
"There is a great judge watching over us, so why can't my parents be rehabilitated?" he asked calmly.
Xu Aiyong didn't answer him. He took two quick breaths and looked at the thin and silent boy, his eyes a little red again.
"Why is he so confident even though I was bullied?" Xiaoping asked again.
Xu Aiyong trembled all over and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
"It doesn't matter." Xiaoping concluded to himself, "If there is no Qingtian Lord, I will be the Qingtian Lord."
"One day, I will put all my sins, all of them, into jail." Xiaoping looked cold, slowly wiped the blood off his face, and spoke word by word.
Zhang Chunliang, who was attached to him, was stunned, and then his whole soul trembled.
He suddenly thought of the prosecutor in the movie - the tall, silent and upright middle-aged man, who seemed to wear a pair of white gloves every time he appeared.
