After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

Time passed by minute by minute, and the room was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

Li Chen's heart slowly calmed down, and he finally spoke: "My brother's name is Li Qian, he is only one year older than me. He has been more likable than me since he was a child, and he can make the elders happy. I have a dull personality and don't like to talk. In comparison, my parents naturally prefer him more."

"Since he was little, no matter what he asked for, as long as he asked, my parents would definitely satisfy him. No matter what he wanted, even if it was something of mine, as long as he said a word, they would let me give it up unconditionally."

"When I was seven years old, my entry won a prize, a model airplane. It was something I had been looking forward to and working hard for a long time to get, and I really cherish it."

"But I didn't expect that he would take a fancy to it. That afternoon, he came to me to ask for it. I refused to give it to him, so he tried to rob it. He is taller and stronger than me, so how could I rob him? He grabbed the thing and ran away. I chased him all the way. I don't know how, but I caught up with him on the road, and he had a car accident..."

At this point, Li Chen secretly clenched his fist, and the memory of the car accident emerged in his mind. He still remembers the bloody scene. After he joined the army, he could not forget it even if he fought to the death on the battlefield.

It's like it's engraved in my mind and can't be torn away.

Seeing him like this, the girl raised her hand and placed it on his back, patting it gently, "It's all over."

"I can't get through it." Li Chen said, turning his head to meet her eyes. In the night, those eyes had already turned bloodshot.

He continued, "That day, he fell in a pool of blood, surrounded by people. I was scared and terrified, but I knew I couldn't just leave him alone. I rushed into the crowd and tried desperately to cover his wound to stop the bleeding. I cried loudly to the crowd, begging them to call 120, begging them to save him..."

"But it was too late. He died. My clothes were already stained with blood. I stood alone in a corner not far from the operating room. I heard the doctor say that he was brought in too late..."

"That day, my mother collapsed in my father's arms and cried. When she was tired of crying, she came over and beat me. She said it was all because of me, that I killed my brother, and that I was a murderer."

The girl was silent, looking at Li Chen with eyes full of heartache.

They all have similar experiences and are not favored in their families.

She patted his back gently, soothing him, "It's okay, it's all over..."

Li Chen raised his eyes to look at her, his blood-red eyes filled with a few tears, which were particularly noticeable in the dimly lit room.

He must be trying hard to hold back his tears, right?

She felt more and more distressed, raised her hand and gently stroked the corner of his eye, "If you want to cry, just cry! You will feel better after crying."

Li Chen just looked at her without saying a word, but the complex emotions in his eyes had already revealed the grievances in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why he had the idea of ​​finding a home for this little girl when he saw her.

Maybe I saw my childhood self in her?

Although he did not live a life of wandering and being resold like her, he grew up suffering from the torture of his parents.

Being hurt by the person closest to you is like stabbing a knife into your heart. What's more, he is not only suffering from physical torture, but also mentally exhausted.

If it weren't for the fact that he had his grandfather in this family to protect him, he would probably... have collapsed long ago.

Tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes as he looked at the girl in front of him. So, he was not redeeming her, he was redeeming his childhood self.

Feeling the warmth on his fingers, the girl raised her hand and gently wiped away his tears. "It's all over. We all need to move on."

As she spoke, she patted her right shoulder gently, "I'll lend you my shoulder for a while."

Li Chen was straightforward this time, or maybe he was really tired, and he leaned directly on her shoulder.

The girl could smell his unique grass scent, but her heart couldn't calm down. She knew his past, but she could do nothing but feel heartbroken.

She stared at the white wall in front of her, lost in thought, when she heard Li Chen murmur, "Little girl, you talked a lot tonight. I'm very happy. Can you talk more in the future?"

The girl tilted her head to look at him, and remembered what he said, that when he was a child, he was dull, didn't like to talk, and couldn't please the elders...

It seemed that since they met, he had mentioned more than once that he wanted her to talk more and be more lively and cheerful. So, he did this just because he didn't want her to be like him and dislike the elders?

But where did she have any elders? Why should she please them?

Even though she thought so in her heart, the girl still agreed, "Okay."

"Girl, there is something I haven't said yet, do you want to hear it?"

"think."

"Actually, I'm also a little hedgehog."

The girl's eyes froze for a moment, and after a while she finally reacted. With his personality, how could he be willing to be bullied?

I'm afraid that he was treated unfairly when he was young, so he resisted strongly, and that's why he is not liked by his parents?

Yes! Parents don’t even like well-behaved children, let alone naughty ones?

Thinking of the years she had spent in the Jiang family, her eyes gradually dimmed. Back then, she was always trying her best to please them, and she never dared to ask for what she wanted.

She lived cautiously, fearing that if she angered them, they would dislike her even more.

But what did her flattery, fawning and cautiousness bring her in the end?

It was being ruthlessly abandoned by my family, and it was what my parents said: Ah Heng is a boy after all...

Compared to the fact that Mr. Jiang chose Jiang Hengzhi without hesitation, she hated her parents even more.

When her life was hanging by a thread, she placed her last hope on them, but they crushed her hope with their own hands. They used words like "Ah Heng is a boy after all" to fool her, and used these words to save their last bit of pitiful face.

They did not stand by and watch the people die, they were just powerless and helpless. If there was any way, they would not just sit there and do nothing.

But is this really the case?

When she was pushed into the sea with a bag of stones tied to her body, they covered their faces and cried, but they never asked for mercy for her, nor did they try their best to save her.

They just cried and stood on the shore watching indifferently.

It seemed as if her life or death was not important. They had truly abandoned her...

The more she thought about it, the more her heart felt blocked. Tears welled up in her eyes and were about to overflow. She was worried that Li Chen would see her, so she quickly said, "I want to go out and get something."

Li Chen closed his eyes and said in a drunken voice: "Get something?"

"Yeah." The girl didn't dare to speak. She was afraid that her voice would contain sobs and Li Chen would be able to hear it.

Maybe he was really tired, Li Chen didn't pay much attention to it. He closed his eyes, moved his head away from her shoulder, and leaned on the edge of the bed, "Go..."

"Okay." The girl stood up quickly, picking up the blanket that had fallen to the ground, and wrapped herself tightly before walking out.
