Chapter 66: Always the one who was given up
Father Cheng's hand holding the chess piece paused slightly, and then his cloudy eyes looked at Cheng Mai. He was not particularly shocked.
"What's the difference between staying in this house all day and going to jail? No matter what you do, you will be told, do I live like a human being?" Cheng's father knew that the defeat was certain, but he still played a chess piece.
Cheng Mai listened to Cheng's father's condemnation, "Is this considered surveillance?"
Cheng's father waited for a moment before giving up and continuing to play chess. "I know I don't have many years to live. I just want someone to talk to and eat with me in my lifetime. Is this a difficult request?"
Cheng Mai thought it was ridiculous, "You had many opportunities to enjoy your old age in peace, but you gave up on yourself, didn't you? Don't you think it's ridiculous to say this now?"
After Cheng Mai finished speaking, she stood up and glanced at Cheng Ying, who was glaring at her. "A person who wanted to eat you up when he was alive, how can he really become more filial after his death? I don't think you are getting old, but your heart is full." Blind.”
Cheng's father's hand on the table trembled slightly, "I don't want to be blind, but what is my biological daughter doing? She is locking up her father like a prisoner."
Cheng's father suddenly burst out and threw the whole chess game on the ground. "What are you doing here now? Are you coming to show off your power in front of me? Cheng Mai, I tell you, this is my home. What I want to do is my freedom, and you It doesn’t matter.”
Many chess pieces exploded from the soles of Cheng Mai's feet, crackling.
"Your home?" Cheng Mai sneered.
This smile completely defeated Cheng's father. He shouted like crazy, "Don't talk to me in this tone, don't be like your mother, as if she is the only smart person in the world, and we are all stupid." .”
"My mother is smart." Cheng Mai looked at Father Cheng coldly, "What kind of man is a man who refuses to admit his own failure? Let me tell you, I really didn't come here for you today, I just didn't want those things to dirty me. Mother’s house.”
Cheng's father was trembling with anger, and his eyes began to look hateful when he looked at Cheng Mai.
"Sometimes I really think, if it weren't for that test report, Cheng Ying would be your daughter. After all, you even have similar personalities. You think you are righteous, but in fact you are nothing." Chengmai said sharply, "I originally I don’t plan to do anything superficial with you as father and daughter. As long as we are in peace, this life will be over, but you are the one who refuses to let me go.”
"Stop spitting out blood."
"Aren't you selling your shares just for Cheng Ying? What did she tell you? She told you that there is a very powerful mage in Yuncheng who can help her recite the rebirth spell and make all the sins she has done in this life be wiped out. But the mage charges a very high fee. So you have to raise money for her even if you sell everything, right?”
Cheng's father instinctively wanted to refute, but found that Cheng Mai actually knew it.
"She is just a child. It was her mother who did something wrong. They are both dead. Isn't that enough to pay you back?" Father Cheng growled.
"What if she gave the money to that mage to use against me? What if she wanted my life?" Cheng Mai asked, staring at Cheng's father.
Her voice was even higher than before, sharp and aggressive.
I want answers, but I seem afraid to ask for them.
Father Cheng was questioned by this sudden question, and he was even a little confused, "No, she won't. She said she just didn't want to go to hell, so..."
"So you choose to believe her?" Cheng Mai added what Cheng's father had not finished, with a bit of self-mockery, "It turns out that no matter how much time passes, I will always be the first choice you give up."
< br>
"That's because you don't leave any room for yourself, so how can you let others leave room for you?" Cheng's father scolded. Cheng Mai smiled, and his smile met Cheng Ying's proud look.
"Compared to me, you are nothing. Even if I die, my father will not like you." Cheng Ying became more and more proud, and even floated up to Cheng Mai to show off his power.
"What a dirty thing that barks when you open your mouth." Shang Xingjian seemed to wave the dirt on his body, but a golden light slapped Cheng Ying, who was in front of Cheng Mai, against the wall.
A soul hit the wall firmly, and rolled several times when it fell. The golden light added to the soul, making the soul feel the burning pain. Cheng Ying screamed, which was extremely scary in this dark night.
Cheng's father was shocked by the sudden change, and subconsciously wanted to help Cheng Ying up, but he couldn't do it.
"Dad, save me." Cheng Ying curled up in pain and was instinctively afraid of Shang Xingjian.
"You said you are tired of being followed around the clock, but do you know that thanks to your good daughter, I am the one who can't live without people around the clock, because I don't know what's going on behind the scenes? How many eyes are staring at me? We are planning to pounce on me and bite me hard at any time, and then kill me." Cheng Mai looked at Father Cheng who was filled with distress, but the distress was not for him.
Father Cheng seemed to be stunned for a moment when he heard this, and even his movements were a little slow.
"You took other people's things, and they just wanted to take them back." Father Cheng muttered to himself.
Cheng Mai suddenly laughed, laughing so loudly that it almost covered up Cheng Ying's roar.
"I took other people's things? Who do you think she is? Doesn't it become hers after she stole something that she used for more than ten years?" Cheng Mai pointed at Cheng Ying and asked Cheng's father, "So, in your heart, I He’s the one who stole things, right?”
Cheng's father was questioned by Cheng Mai. One was his daughter who was on the ground mourning and calling her father, and the other was questioning his daughter aggressively.
"But she has already returned it to you, what else do you want?" Cheng's father was also annoyed by the question and asked angrily.
Cheng Mai calmed down and allowed his emotions to completely settle.
She said calmly and restrainedly, "I said she wanted to kill me."
Cheng's father seemed really anxious, and even started to speak indiscriminately, "You are surrounded by capable people now, can she kill you?"
"This is really ridiculous." Shang Jian pulled up a chair and sat down. He raised his hand and cast a gag spell. The woman screamed and had a headache. "Is it true that I have to be killed before I can come to you to seek justice?" ? To whom is justice given? To yourself so that you can spend your remaining years peacefully?"
Cheng's father was scolded in the face and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.
"You just did some unsavory and despicable things during your lifetime, how did you end up going to the eighteenth level of hell?" Shang Xingjian raised his hand to call Cheng Ying to his feet, bent down and looked at Cheng Ying who was twisted in pain, "That shameless person What benefits has Master Shang given you to come here even if you don’t want to be reincarnated? I guess it’s because he promised you that Cheng Mai’s life will be left to you, right?”
Cheng Ying was in so much pain that she couldn't speak and could only look at Shang Xingjian with horrified eyes.
Shang Xingjian kicked the person away and looked at Father Cheng with a playful smile, "Look, she admitted it."
If you don't open your mouth to refute, you are admitting it.
