Awen Yi has since had several very brief relationships, and she doesn't want to pretend anymore.

A gentleman is frank, and she wants to try to be a gentleman.

But the results were dismal.

No one will want to buy an apple with rotten worm eyes, no matter how "sincere" the apple is, "mega sale".

When those men learned of her family history, will make up a variety of strange reasons, the final result in exchange for a leave her.

Awen Yi from the beginning of the sadness, resentment, to the final numbness, cold heart.

Then one day, she sat in a bar at 4:00 a.m., watching a drunken woman being picked up by men with evil intentions to go home, she suddenly realized that, in fact, this place, and her village is no different.

Both places are the same dirty, following the same unspoken rules in operation, the rules are nothing but, you have money and power, no one dares to bully you earn you, you are poor and humble, they can only wait for others to pick and choose, to tell you what to do.

She received a letter from her sister.

This little sister, who is not from the same mother as her, is the only person in the world who can understand her, who suffers more because she is weaker than her.

In her letter, her little sister said she missed her and wanted her to come home. She said their father wanted to marry her off to the crippled man who was widowed in the next village.

Awen Yi finished reading, and was outraged.

The crippled man was fifty years old, how old was her sister? Of course she knew what the man they called "father" was up to.

The crippled man is sick and ugly and old, but at least he runs a small gambling house in the village that his father frequents. When the father loses all his money, he tries to use his daughter as a bargaining chip on the gambling table.

She certainly could not allow this to happen.

So she simply packed her bags, left her disappointment and trauma in the city, and returned to Qingli County with a cold heart and all the insight and experience she had gained in the city.

She approached her father, Qiang Yi, and asked him point-blank if he wanted money.

Subsequently -

As a result, another poppy, nourished by darkness, bloomed in the barren land of Yijia Village.

Arwen's hairdressing store is opened.

Awen Yi has finally gone from being a victim to an abuser. She blames her misfortune on her poor family, her lazy father and her criminal mother.

She can't change the latter two, but she thinks she can change the former if she pays the price of her soul.

Everything should have gone on that way.

If Qiang Yi wasn't getting more and more bloated and wanting more and more, and his little girl was getting more and more beautiful.

-- Qiang Yi met a big Zai Ma in town for entertainment/city.

The head of Zai Ma is also popular because he can pretend to be a tiger.

That Zai Ma enjoy enough of the city, want to fresh, occasionally play a countryside sacrifice.

Qiang Yi then took Zai Ma back to his family's hair washing workshop in the village.

Awen Yi was not in the store that day, only Lulu was in charge of the store. Zai Ma looked around but could not see anyone, and was about to get angry when she saw Lulu Yi, who looked like a lotus flower.

That night, Lulu Yi was insulted by the man with the acquiescence of her own father and with Qiang Yi standing by, not daring to offend.

She didn't dare to talk to Awen Yi until she got pregnant, and the paper couldn't hold the fire.

Awen Yi angry shaking, she took the still so small girl to the hospital in town, sister was pushed into the operating room before pulling her sleeves asked her in a daze: "Sister, if we had a mother, is it not so difficult to live ......"

At that moment, Awen Yi's heart was so suffocated that he could not even breathe.

She went home, turned on the store's security camera, switched to the day she was not there, and watched the whole thing with cold hands and feet.

She had wanted to find a reason to forgive the man she called her father.

But what she saw with her own eyes was the man groveling to Zai Ma beforehand, standing outside the door indifferently as if he couldn't hear the young girl's cries, and bowing to her afterwards with his hands folded and a smile on his face as he received a large sum of money from Zai Ma.

She looked on woodenly.

She didn't move until the screen went black and the video ended.

A long time later, she saw herself in the black screen reflection.

She saw a face that belonged to the devil.

"I killed him." Awen Yi finally told them, "If I don't end the rotten roots of this family, there is no way for my sister and I to start the day over. I don't have a choice. ......"

She said, "I simply didn't have a choice."

"What do you know about it ...... you are clothed and fed, smarty pants to investigate some truth, I'm used to seeing people like you, go back and write the so-called truth into an eye-catching article, the flesh and blood of others becomes the corrupt sustenance that nourishes you to live on. "

What started out as an irresponsible story, a fledgling journalist's self-righteousness, ended up growing into such an intricate web of demons. Awen Yi took them for granted as the same people who came to the countryside to dig up some stories as that reporter did at the beginning.

She said and tilted her head back and laughed.

"You people ...... know nothing, understand nothing, all the suffering we suffer is just a talking point for you to enjoy after tea!"

Qingcheng Xie didn't explain much to her that Awen Yi was an accident they encountered during the investigation of the RN13 case. They saw the end of Yuzhu Lu's husband and daughter after twenty years of broken families.

At this time, a siren suddenly sounded on the distant mountain road.

When Awen Yi heard this, she bit her lip and turned white.

-- "You called the police?!"

Qingcheng Xie They didn't have time to call the police. They didn't know who did it, and just watched the police car come whizzing along the mountain road.

Awen Yi couldn't help but take a step backwards. As if by fate, she and her mother both hate the police with a passion. Only her mother was framed, while she was doused with her first full-blooded love. Her ex-boyfriend's father, a police officer, had investigated her family history and her secrets to the hilt.

She felt like she was stripped naked and put under a shadowless lamp for inspection.

That sense of shame still fades to this day.

"Sister! Sister! How are you!" The police car soon pulled up to the mountain road near them, and Lulu Yi rushed out of the police car-

Ironically, the last person to call the police in time was Awen Yi's sister!

The little girl did not know that her father had been killed by Awen Yi, let alone that Awen Yi had built the man's body into the wall in order to hide it from the public. In her eyes, her sister is still the same kind, helpless, good person. When she sees her sister and the others getting into an argument, she assumes that it is someone else's fault and that it is someone else who is trying to bully the two sisters.

Awen Yi was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him and could not have expected such an ending.

Qingcheng Xie does not want to talk to her, and he really does not know what to say to this pathetic and hateful and pathetic woman.

But Yu He is different.

Yu He is not a saint, Qingcheng Xie does not want him to kill, he will not kill, but he is full of hatred and malice, after the police came, in front of Lulu Yi, suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

"I still have something to say to her."

Awen Yi : "......"

Yu He slowly approached, pacing forward like a predator, showing his hunting fangs. He looked down at the woman who had hurt his kind for a moment, and opened his mouth with a vengeance: "Miss Yi, you think you are innocent and helpless, and that what you do is out of your own hands, don't you?"

Awen Yi covered his bloodied hand and turned his head in fear.

Yu He was in front of the crowd, as if he was saying words of justice and regret, but Awen Yi met his gaze and saw only a green-faced, red-eyed demon in his eyes.

He's taking revenge.

This clothed beast is taking revenge in his own way!

Yu He said in a cold voice: "But what is the difference between you now, and those who once bullied you?"

"You didn't want your sister to suffer that kind of humiliation, but what did you do to get rid of your fate and make money to seize power? Did you ever think about the feelings of the girls when you searched one by one to do those skin camps in your store?"

He was going to rip away her entire disguise in front of her sister - in front of the only person she still cared about.

Awen Yi was afraid, she shook her head in horror, Yu He took the hearts of the people like a butcher takes the flesh of a fish.

While she watched Lulu Yi's expression from bewilderment to consternation, she said to Yu He, "Stop it ...... you stop it ......"

Yu He doesn't care about her.

Since she let him hear Qingcheng Xie say "I returned you" that heartbreaking words, he also want her to taste the same sting. He knew that it was something more cruel than real killing.

Yu He Mori continued, "You let others do such things because of your family's misfortune, because you can't stand other people calling you the daughter of a criminal, the son of a gambler."

"They volunteered! Of their own free will! I didn't force them!!!"

"But have you ever thought about their daughters, their fathers, if they would like that too? When they have children later on, those children will be pointed out in this village just like you used to be, and they will be disliked by their parents when they talk about a boyfriend, have you thought about that Awen Yi? You only think about yourself!"

"You haven't paid any more attention to your mother's whereabouts all these years, either, have you?"

"......"

"If you dare to admit that she is your mother, don't hide from her, just go read more about her, you will find that many years ago, your own mother - Yuzhu Lu , she has been vindicated! Her trial was a wrongful death case, and the prosecutor went to Huzhou to find her, apologize to her, and give her a clear explanation of her wrongdoing."

When Awen Yi heard this, he suddenly trembled and raised his eyes, staring at him incredulously, as if he had seen a ghost.

"You don't even know. And I am not surprised at all." Yu He said word by word, "Because you are too selfish, you only think about why she is such a corrupt official, in your eyes, your mother is an official first, then your mother. You don't want to know about her past, you don't want to know that she ever came back to this house, only to be broken hearted by you who didn't recognize her at all, and your father who made a new love and left you forever!"

"These things are not at all difficult to be inquired about, but why don't you know? Because you don't want to inquire at all. The moment you knew she was a corrupt official and a criminal, you were ashamed of her, you hated that she never existed in this world, so you would not take the initiative to learn even a little bit about your mother's past."

"......"

"If you had inquired, you would have known that the only decent road in your ghost village was planned by her personally when she was in office. You would know that the Hope Primary School that still exists in your county was built when she was secretary for the children in this county who were eager to study. If you inquire, you will know the insults, pain, suffering, torture, framing your mother once suffered, if you inquire, you will know that she has finally been justified, if you inquire ......"

Yu He paused for a moment.

He had said these things out of revenge, in order to remove the woman's mask in front of everyone, in front of Awen Yi's beloved sister, and to make her suffer the disappointment of being looked at by her favorite person.

But as he spoke, his eyes really emerged when the woman in the radio tower was laughing and crying with her face covered.

To be honest, Yu He might have taken pity on Yuzhu Lu at that time if he hadn't been in a different position.

Because until the day of the Canton Tower case, until the day Yuzhu Lu was determined to die for the organization, that mother's heart still ached for the daughter she would never see again.

When Qingcheng Xie asks her, "Do you see the eyes in the sky?", she is still able to share some feelings with Muying Zhou, whom she has never met, and she still hesitates and feels uneasy about it.

Yu He is actually not that disgusted with Yuzhu Lu.

He said here, then there are really a few knocking sincere meaning: "If you inquire, Awen Yi, but you treat her as your mother, believe her, to ask the truth about the past, she should not be your shame, but should be your pride, should be your trekking also to save your mother. Then everything, it would not be as it is now, she and you, are in time."

"But do you know what your mother ended up doing out there because of your disregard for her, carrying sins that didn't belong to her?"

"She went to another shampooing workshop in this world, to live, she went to work as a hairdresser. And the owner of that shampoo shop probably has all sorts of hardships that you can't help - you're here using these girls to make money for your happiness while your mother is 'willingly' selling her life as well as the girls under you. And you could have changed all that - if only you had known her a little, if only you hadn't been ashamed to think of a criminal as your own mother, you could have gone to her after you knew the wrong."

"And maybe, take your sister with you."

"She will not enter a terrorist organization, you will not fall to this level, and your sister will not have to be afraid. As for your father-"

Yu He paused for a moment and finally told the truth that made all the police officers and Lulu Yi around the room turn pale with horror: "Nor will you be killed in revenge and brutally sealed in the walls of your store attic."

Awen Yi, who had been trying to stand up before, fell to the ground again in a heap.

"You once had a key that could have changed the fate of everyone in your family. If only you would be willing to really, peacefully, get to know a little bit about your own mother."

"But, you threw it away without a glance."

Stunning thunder from the dome of the sky running and stepping through.

A muffled rumble.

Thunder like the last drumbeat of a grand concerto, finally on this night, the sequel to the events of the Canton Tower, drew to a close.

With it came an endless silence.

The police finally came forward and clicked off the handcuffs on Awen Yi's wrists, and as the woman walked past her sister with her head down, Lulu Yi looked at her with tears in her eyes in fear and uncertainty, not knowing what to do: "Sis ...... I, I didn't mean to... ...I don't know ...... why you ......"

She was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Awen Yi didn't dare to look at her and kept his head down.

She eventually became a disgrace to her relatives, and she dreaded seeing the look of utter disappointment on Lulu Yi's face when she passed by.

It wasn't until she was being escorted to the car that Lulu Yi suddenly came to her senses, breaking away from the police officer holding her next to her and stumbling over to her...

"Sister! Sister!"

Police officer: "What for!"

"Stop her-"

But the officer who led the group shook his head and stopped them from moving.

Lulu Yi cried out and jumped behind Awen Yi, hugging her tightly: "A sister, it's okay, it's okay. Don't be afraid, I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I know you are spoiling me, you are doing it for my own good ...... I only had one family in this world before, and I only have one family in the future, A sister, no matter what you have done, you are still my A sister!"

Awen Yi's heart shuddered and he looked back at the tiny girl.

Tears came to my eyes in a flash.

--At that moment, she seemed to suddenly understand how her mother, who had disappeared from the jungle, had felt when she left Yijia Village.

At that moment, didn't Yuzhu Lu wish someone could say such words to her?

People praised the Lu secretary or, shouting unjustly imprisoned female prisoners, she is always their mother, is a man's wife ...... she was, perhaps with such a mood home.

She wanted very little at that time.

She probably, just wants her man to call her Mrs.

Or maybe, just want her daughter to call her mother.

But none of them gave her such comfort.

So she left, and for long years afterwards, she never came back.

Awen Yi choked up and tried to say something to her sister, but in the end said nothing, she turned around hastily, fled as if behind the police, and left ......

Yu He watched as her figure was blocked by the closed door of the police car.

Then he turned back and was about to say something to Qingcheng Xie when he saw that Qingcheng Xie was already leaning against the stone wall, covering his arm which was bleeding like water.

Yu He only slightly relieved some of the breath, and then a sudden lift up, he said out of breath -

" Qingcheng Xie!!!"

"......"

" Qingcheng Xie ! How are you doing ...... you-"

Qingcheng Xie did not answer him, the force of the impact plus the gunshot wound in the arm, he can hold on until now has been exhausted all the strength. He was along the stone wall, his face white without a trace of blood, just hanging his head and eyes closed, slowly sliding down.
