I became beautiful by eating melons

One day ago, Liang family in the military region.

Liang Yushan was suspended from his duties and told the public that he was ill and went home to recuperate.

On the small balcony on the second floor, a tall and strong man lost weight rapidly in the past two months. His clothes became looser and looser, and his facial features became more and more three-dimensional.

Liang Yushan held a cigarette between his fingers, half leaning against the railing with his eyelids drooping.

Over the years, he has worked hard and never rested.

He was afraid to stop.

Because once he stops, he will miss Zheng Lili.

He was afraid to face Zheng Lili, so he didn't dare to stop.

During these days of recuperation at home, without work, he had a lot of time to rest, and he didn't dream about Zheng Lili anymore.

Lily, do you still hate me?

He sighed deeply, closed his eyes, relaxed his mind, and let his consciousness fall into a deep sleep.

……

The door of the bedroom opposite the small balcony was gently pushed open.

The girl poked her head out from behind the door, and it was Cai Xiaoxia.

Cai Xiaoxia's slender eyes swept across the small balcony. When she saw Liang Yushan, she was startled and her chest heaved violently.

She stared at Liang Yushan vigilantly, and when she saw that he had his eyes closed and hadn't moved, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The girl pushed the door open quietly and walked out.

Leaning against the wall, he carefully walked out of the balcony and headed straight for Tian Zihui's room.

Cai Xiaoxia ran into the bedroom.

Tian Zihui's bedroom has curtains drawn all year round. The room is simply decorated with a large solid wood bed and a mahogany shrine next to the window.

Cai Xiaoxia is a thin girl, looking up at the shrine.

After years of use, the color of the mahogany has deepened, and it appears faintly black in the dim environment. There are incense burners and fruit offerings on the altar.

After Tian Zihui was taken away, the offerings were not replaced in time and had already turned black and rotted.

The door of the niche behind the incense burner opened, revealing the statue inside.

Covered with a red cloth, it is hard to tell what kind of god it is.

In the dimly lit bedroom, the statue covered with red cloth looked eerie, and Cai Xiaoxia was a little scared.

Remembering her grandmother's instructions, the girl no longer hesitated and stretched out her hand.

-

"Commander Liang, the Security Bureau is here."

Cai Zhenli came upstairs to call him.

Liang Yushan woke up with a start, his fingertips moved slightly, and the cigarette ashes fell off. Hearing that the security bureau had arrived, he frowned and looked displeased.

After a while, he said, "Let them in."

Cai Zhenli went downstairs to open the door.

Liang Yushan put down his cigarette, stood up and walked downstairs.

Passing by his mother's bedroom, he saw the door was half open. He frowned slightly, but before he could think about it, the door downstairs was pushed open.

Cai Zhenli came in with her people.

Seeing more than a dozen people walking into the house, Liang Yushan stopped walking down the stairs.

The leader came up quickly, extended his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Commander Liang, I'm Deng Hongguang from the Security Bureau."

Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.

Liang Yushan frowned and shook hands with him, then quickly withdrew his hand, glanced at the dozen people following Deng Hongguang, and said unhappily: "What are you going to do?"

"Don't be nervous, Commander Liang." Deng Hongguang stretched out his hand and the person behind him handed him a piece of paper.

Deng Hongguang took it and handed it to Liang Yushan, saying with a smile: "Search warrant. The fugitive suspect Cai Gensheng has not been caught yet. Search according to the order."

"Do you suspect that my family is harboring a suspect?" Liang Yushan's voice was filled with anger.

"I didn't say that." Deng Hongguang quickly denied: "It was just a routine search."

Liang Yushan's hands holding the railing kept tightening.

He was a soldier who had survived the battlefield and had actually killed people. At this moment, he was furious and felt extremely oppressed.

Those caught by his gaze hurriedly moved away.

Only Deng Hongguang continued to look at him with a smile, his eyes were calm, and he shook the search warrant again.

Liang Yushan had a gloomy face, turned sideways, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Search."

Deng Hongguang smiled slightly: "Thank you for your cooperation, Commander Liang."

At this moment, Commander Liang's voice was full of sarcasm.

Deng Hongguang waved his hand, and the police behind him immediately began to search.

He smiled and warned: "Don't damage the items, be careful!"

Deng Hongguang searched Tian Zihui's bedroom personally, and Liang Yushan stood at the door.

He watched Deng Hongguang take apart the mattress to see if there was any layer inside, but he could do nothing.

"Commander Liang, does your father believe in gods and Buddhas?"

Liang Yushan said coldly: "Just pray for peace."

"Do you mind if I check it?" Deng Hongguang stood in front of the Buddhist shrine and asked Liang Yushan for his opinion with a smile.

"Please."

Deng Hongguang bowed in front of the Buddhist shrine before picking up the Guanyin statue and examining it carefully.

Liang Yushan glanced at it and frowned slightly.

Something seemed to be missing from the shrine.

The Guanyin statue, incense burner, offering plate and father’s tablet are all there.

He couldn't figure out what it was and just thought he was wrong.

The search lasted an hour, and they even turned over the garden soil twice with a shovel, but found nothing.

Deng Hongguang said goodbye with a smile.

Liang Yushan had a gloomy face and didn't show any good expression to him. He said coldly: "Goodbye."

Cai Zhenli saw Deng Hongguang and his group out.

A group of people gathered at the door, pointing and talking at Cai Zhenli.

Cai Zhenli slammed the door and went back into the house.

Liang Yushan sat on the sofa with a sullen face and called her.

Cai Zhenli walked over quietly, "Commander Liang, what can I do for you?"

Liang Yushan asked, "Did you go into my mother's bedroom?"

Thinking of the half-open bedroom door before Deng Hongguang and others came to search, Liang Yushan's intuition told him that something was wrong.

"No." Cai Zhenli shook her head. The confusion on her face didn't seem like she was lying.

Seeing that she denied it, Liang Yushan did not ask any more questions and just thought he was overthinking.

-

In the middle of the night, the bedroom door was gently pushed open, and a figure sneaked into the bedroom silently under the moonlight.

The girl on the bed turned her head in her sleep, her face facing the bedroom door.

Her sudden movement startled the visitor, and Cai Zhenli's hands trembled, and she almost couldn't hold the pillow.

The girl didn't wake up, she just turned over. Her breathing was shallow and her little face was red from the heat.

Cai Zhenli stood beside the bed, holding the pillow with her hands, clenching and unclenching.

After a long time, she seemed to have made a decision. Hatred burst out of her eyes, and the soft and fluffy pillow silently pressed on Cai Xiaoxia's head.

At the moment of pressing down, Cai Xiaoxia suddenly moved. She seemed to have had a nightmare, her brows knitted tightly, and she subconsciously called out, "Mom."

Cai Zhenli's heart trembled, and the hands holding the pillow completely lost their strength.

The fluffy and soft pillow was thrown on the ground. She slumped down on the side of the bed, crying silently but desperately.

Cai Xiaoxia is not her biological child, and her persistence over the years has become a joke.

Cai Zhenli originally wanted to kill her and then commit suicide.

The word "Mom" brought back her shattered sanity.

Cai Xiaoxia is not her biological child, but the thirteen years of raising her are not fake, so she can't do it.

It's the adults' fault, the children are so innocent.

Cai Zhenli knew this clearly, but her heart still ached.

Thinking about her child who died young and was buried underground, as a mother who only found out about this thirteen years later, her heart ached.

I can't kill her, but I won't love her as unconditionally as before.

Cai Zhenli staggered to her feet, her eyes glimpsed the red cloth under the child's pillow, and she paused slightly.

She reached out, took away the red cloth, and left quietly.

The moonlight sprinkled on the bed. The girl's sleeping face was peaceful, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, smaller than the arc of a butterfly's wings.
