Rebirth Poppy

The TV screen was frozen at the picture of Xia Tong being strangled with blood on both wrists, but still wanting to move to the side to avoid Du Yanzhi regardless.

Only the two breathing sounds were deep and urgent in the study room where the TV screen was dimly lit.

The deadly atmosphere was broken by Pei Muli after nearly a moment.He stretched out his hand and pulled out the remote control that was almost crushed from Du Yan's hand, canceling the pause.

The picture in the TV will not pay attention to the psychology of the people who are watching, it will faithfully play out what it records, without any omission.

Xia Tong's panic, despair, crazily struggling when being entered, muffled groans when being torn apart, then unconsciously begging for mercy, and finally returning to despair...

If it wasn't for the visible bone wound on his wrist, if it wasn't for the footage recorded in the camera... Pei Muli and Du Yan couldn't have imagined that the terribly calm Xia Tong they saw in the warehouse, the wound was soaked in disinfectant. Xia Tong, who didn't even tremble a bit under the stimulation, had once struggled so fiercely.

Not the first time.He said that his face was as calm as if he wasn't the one who went through it all.

Even if the two looked at him without blinking, they couldn't find even a trace of ridicule or resentment in his eyes. — just a statement.

State a fact they're subconsciously trying to get him to forget.

Like a repeater, there is only that hoarse and calm sentence in my mind.Every time it was repeated, the big invisible hand on the heart tightened, almost suffocating.

The picture inside the TV continued, repeating again and again.

Until the ringtone of the mobile phone broke the depression of this dead silence.

Looking at the name displayed on the caller, Du Yan's face, which had been frozen all night, suddenly became angry, and veins popped out of his hands.The ringtone continued unconsciously, and the music that was usually considered good was now so harsh that it wanted to destroy something.

It was the first time Du Yanzhi called Du Yan. When he learned that Xia Tong was kidnapped, he only wanted to confirm whether the person in the van was Xia Tong, but forgot to tell Du Yan. After he confirmed, Du Yan had already hung up the phone.

Later, he refused to answer Du Yanzhi's phone call because he was discussing with others who kidnapped Xia Tong, which led to the delay of Xia Tong's rescue.

The heart-wrenching remorse and self-blame made him stop in mid-air when he dropped the phone, and when he answered the phone, Du Yan said coldly, "Hello."

There was silence for a while.He said coldly again, "Are you okay? Goodbye then."

"Yan, how is he...?" A slightly weak voice came when he was about to hang up the phone, probably just waking up.The voice that has always been strong in memory now carries a rare uneasiness.

Mixed with the pleasant gasp in the sound.

"Bang!" Du Yan smashed the phone against the wall with all his strength, and Du Yan panted with bloodshot eyes.He stepped in front of Pei Muli who was still watching TV without blinking, grabbed his collar and pulled him up, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's fight!"

What he got was a hard punch in the face.

……

When he woke up from his sleep, Qingyu's cry was in his ears.

"Who is dead in the Shen family?" In the Shen family, Shen Qingci is the only relative in Qingyu's heart.Seeing her red and swollen eyes when she opened her eyes, Xia Tong laughed.It's just that the voice is too hoarse, so low that it seems that only the shape of the lips said this sentence.

But Shen Qingyu still heard it.He froze for a moment, then stood up abruptly, "Xia Tong! Wuwu Xia Tong, you finally woke up!"

A servant has already rushed out of the door.

Looking at the servant who disappeared at the door, Xia Tong gave a dry cough and pointed to his throat.Qingyu immediately understood and went to pour a glass of water for him to drink.

"Why are you here?" Xia Tong asked at this moment when the burning cough in his throat cleared up, and he leaned on the pillow with her help.

The Shen family and Pei Du's family have long turned against each other, and with Shen Qingci's nervousness towards her, it is impossible for him to let her come to the villa at this critical moment.

Qingyu wiped away her tears and was about to speak when Pei Muli, who had a few conspicuous bruises on her face, walked in from the door.

Although the footsteps were as usual, the breathing was faintly panting.

"Is there any discomfort? What do you want to eat?" He stopped by the bed and asked.Her voice was much hoarse than usual, and her eyes were full of joy and tension, which was an expression of emotion that she had never seen before.

Xia Tong shook his head and looked at him.There was stubble on the chin, which was always smooth, and bruises on the face that had obviously existed for a few days and had begun to dissipate, and he could not conceal the exhaustion on his face.

Suddenly understanding, Xia Tong looked down at his hands.Sure enough, most of the wounds I pinched on my hands have healed, and there is no particularly sharp pain in my wrist or body.

"How many days have I slept?" Looking at Qingyu asked.

"Four days...do you still want to sleep?" Qingyu asked nervously.

Beside, Pei Muli clenched his hand slightly.

Seeing his appearance out of the corner of his eye, Xia Tong smiled slightly, "I'm not a pig."

From Qingyu's mouth, I learned that the reason why she came here was because Pei Muli suddenly rushed to Shen's house yesterday, picked her up without saying a word, and walked out. He took Qingyu and left, fearing that there would be a fight in the Shen family yesterday.

He wouldn't be surprised if Du Yan did this kind of burglary, but this behavior came from the always calm Pei Muli...

Pei Muli, who was sitting at the desk in the newly moved room and working, noticed his gaze and looked sideways, his blue eyes were dazzling in the sunlight.

……

The injuries on Xiatong's body looked serious, but in fact, except for the wrist and a little laceration in the back court, the others were flesh wounds, which healed quickly.

Three days later, Du Yan, who hadn't seen anyone since Xia Tong woke up, suddenly stood in front of him, looking at him for a long time as if he was patrolling the health of his territory.

Then he reached out and hugged Xiatong with some hesitation.After confirming that the body in his arms was only slightly stiff and not acting aggressively, he tightened his arms violently, buried his head on the side of Xia Tong's neck, and breathed hard.

"...It hurts." Being strangled, Xia Tong made a sound.Du Yan immediately relaxed his strength, but he still didn't let go.

"I'll take you to meet someone." After a long while, Du Yan let go of his hand and pulled Xia Tong outside.

This kind of thing happened to Xia Tong. Whether it was Pei Muli, Du Yan, or Du Yanzhi, they were all at fault, but Pei Muli was just an introduction, and Du Yanzhi was his own brother, and he lost control under the influence of drugs. Apart from receiving the call in time, Du Yan could only put his anger on Zhou Qi who was in charge of this matter.

In fact, Du Yan and Pei Muli have also sent people to find Zhou Qi in the past two years, but there is Li Steward who has been in the underworld for decades by her side, and the Zhou family has perished, so they did not send any of them to the greenhouse. Grown-up women take it too seriously, that's why Zhou Qi was allowed to hide for such a long time.

But this time is different, if Zhou Qi is not caught, Du Yan will have no face to meet Xia Tong.

In addition, besides Du Yan, Du Yanzhi and Yang Jian were the only people who wanted to find Zhou Qi. Even if Zhou Qi escaped from G City, no matter how hard Steward Li tried to dodge, he couldn't stop the pursuers.

If it wasn't for the fact that all three of them had to live, Zhou Qi wouldn't have been caught until today.

As Du Yan got off the car at the back door of a nightclub, Yang Jian dropped the cigarette butt in his hand and strode over.

"How is your body?" He asked in front of Du Yan.

Xia Tong frowned slightly, then relaxed again, shook his head and said, "It's okay." In front of Pei Muli and Du Yan, Yang Jian has always shown an attitude of interest in him, with his previous behavior of looking for someone with great fanfare. , asking now, there is nothing too abrupt about it.

And even if they get suspicious, so what, he has done everything he can do, and now he only looks at the people Shen Qingci and Yang Jian contacted... If he succeeds, he will be free.

If you lose...

"Guangzhu Yang actually came to greet him in person, I'm really flattered." Du Yan tightened his hands around Xia Tong's waist, and said with a smile, although the smile was a bit fake.

Yang Jian smiled, didn't answer, turned around and took the two of them upstairs.

Although he vaguely guessed who the person he was going to meet next was, Shi Xiatong sighed slightly when he saw the embarrassed man whose hands and feet were tied and thrown randomly in the corner.

Can't tell what it feels like. ——Resentment, relief, sadness, sympathy, maybe all of them, but they are mixed in an instant, making it difficult to recognize.

After Zhou Qi on the ground saw Xia Tong, his face suddenly became extremely excited, and he stared at him with wide eyes, the resentment in his eyes was so thick that it was shocking.

"What are you going to do?" Turning around, he looked at Du Yan, who had a look of asking for credit, and Yang Jian, who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"If you do something, you must be prepared to bear the consequences." Du Yan glanced at Zhou Qi, who was gagged and unable to speak, and his eyes instantly turned dark, "There are too many people in this world. No one will find out."

The hostility in his eyes did not diminish, Du Yan smiled and said, "But it took so much effort to catch her back, it would be too worthless if she died so easily. Leader Yang, find someone to teach her, and put her in your place." How is it here? This face is still good."

Naturally knowing what Yang Jian does, Zhou Qi's body froze, and the resentment he had looked at Yang Jian was immediately taken up by fear, and he looked at Yang Jian as if begging for mercy.

Turning his eyes on Xia Tong's face, Yang Jian smiled, "Anything you want."

A few words can determine a person's fate.

like him.

Seeing the despair in Zhou Qi's eyes, Xia Tong sighed slightly, knelt down in front of her and said, "Are you desperate? Still want to resist? A word of advice, be good. If you fall into their hands, you won't even be able to die. The ending It’s just being teased like a dog, pointing east and never daring to go west, letting people lie on their stomachs and never daring to lie down... Believe me, they have such means, just like me.”

When Xia Tong said this, his voice was very soft, and the expression on his face was somewhat self-deprecating and nonchalant.Du Yan suddenly felt that his heart was being pulled hard, and it hurt.Even the air became so thin that it was hard to breathe.

And Yang Jian, who was leaning on the side and watching Xia Tong, also frowned tightly, his fists clenched tightly, as if he wanted to hold something or someone tightly and not let go.

Zhou Qi stared at him, but his eyes were wandering, and the tears in his eyes were spreading, but because he didn't want to show weakness in front of his enemies who had been around him a few days ago, he held back.

Maybe it was because she was chased too hard before she was caught. Zhou Qi's clothes were dirty everywhere, smelled of sweat, she was completely bare-faced, and her eyes were very blue. Xia Tong had no doubt that if she was safe now, the next The possibility of falling asleep in seconds. ——If Zhou Zhijian saw Zhou Qi like this, he would cry all the time.

Xia Tong pulled out the cloth from her mouth, stretched out his hand to lift up the hair that fell in front of her eyes, and said, "Last time, even my life was in your hands, so I dare not tell you. But now our roles are reversed." So I have to refute your statement that I am the culprit of everything... It is not because of me that Pei Muli doesn't love you, and it is not because of me that he abandoned you and betrayed you. Not because of me."

"Pei Muli is not a person who can wrong himself for the purpose. If you don't deceive yourself a little bit, you won't know that he doesn't love you. He let you approach and get engaged to you. His purpose is very clear. Your father, your Uncle Li, all outsiders can see it, but you insist on setting yourself up to fall into it... This is your first mistake. The second is that you shouldn't kidnap me. Revenge doesn't make you Dad's resurrection will not bring the Zhou family back to its former prosperity. It will only bring you the momentary pleasure and the pain you are about to face now. If your father knows that his precious daughter is being bullied like this, It must be very distressing.”

Zhou Qi couldn't hold back the tears she was holding back, and sobbed like a convulsion.Xia Tong closed his eyes, stood up and said, "Zhou Qi, say sorry to me, and I will let you go."

There was a few seconds of silence in the room.Even Zhou Qi's sobs were choked up at this moment, and he looked at him in surprise.

Xia Tong smiled almost sighing, "Although I don't admit the crimes you imposed on me, I did do something that I'm sorry to you. So, say sorry to me, and I'll let you go."

It's not that I don't hate, but so what about hatred... revenge can't redeem anything.

And he couldn't watch a woman like a flower being ruined with cold eyes, and there was no room for turning around. ——After he was bullied and trampled on.
