Chapter 87 One Death, One Madness

At this moment, Bian Dong walked up to Zhang Hengquan.

He said, "Zhang Hengquan, the Master Baili Zhen you were looking for has already been arrested by us."

Baili Zhen was the one who told Zhang Hengquan that his son was still alive. Later, Zhang Hengquan would build the Chengze Building, and even those four live stakes were also done by Baili Zhen.

Bai Lizhen said that by doing this, he could find his Xiao Ze.

Yes, he has indeed found his Xiaoze.

I just didn't expect it to be like this.

How ridiculous, truly ridiculous.

Whether it's laughable or pathetic, perhaps only Zhang Hengquan knows the answer.

"That Baili Zhen was saved by Ji Qin before. Baili Zhen said that Ji Qin went to see him before you captured him. The things Baili Zhen asked you to do were actually because Ji Qin asked Baili Zhen to do them out of gratitude for saving his life..."

Bian Dong didn't need to say anything more; Zhang Hengquan already understood.

He knew who Ji Qin was, of course.

Their former competitors, or rather, their enemies.

The man whose neck he broke said he would regret it and that his retribution would fall on his wife and children.

So, was everything a setup by Ji Qin before his death?

Ji Qin lied to him when he said he killed Xiao Ze.

He wanted Xiaoze to live, and then in this way, he wanted Zhang Hengquan to kill his own son with his own hands.

This was Ji Qin's ultimate revenge.

No wonder, no wonder Ji Qin said he would regret it.

Haha, he really regretted it.

“Zhang Hengquan, sometimes, no matter how deep the hatred, you shouldn’t harm innocent women and children. If you had spared Ji Qin’s daughter’s life back then, perhaps Ji Qin would have spared Ping An’s life as well.”

A glimmer of hope?
Zhang Hengquan suddenly remembered what Xu Qingling had just said: that his Xiao Ze had come to repay a debt of gratitude.

The best way to repay a debt of gratitude is to atone for one's father's sins.

He finally understood what that meant.

Unfortunately, he realized it too late, and knew it too late.

He doesn't want this way of repaying kindness, no!
He could bear his own sins; all he wanted was for his wife and children to live well, to live well!
Even with his hands stained with blood, Zhou Shun continued to dig at the soil with both hands.

Apart from Hu Yuanyuan, he did not allow anyone else to take action.

Zhou Shun guessed something about Hu Yuanyuan.

At that moment, he had no other thoughts; all he wanted to do was bring his son home safely.

As he dug, Zhou Shun suddenly seemed to have touched something.

Soon, everyone could see what it was.

That was none other than Zhou Ping'an's right hand, which had long since turned into bones.

His right hand seemed to be holding something, holding it very tightly, and even after he died peacefully, he still held it tightly and never let go.

It seemed that thing was very important to him.

But the hand that was gripping so tightly suddenly loosened its grip when Zhou Shun's hand touched it.

He seemed to know that it was his father.

Zhou Shun slowly picked up the object.

It was something that resembled an ear, and it was unfamiliar to Zhou Shun.

But almost instantly, he knew what it was.

Cochlear implant.

This is the cochlear implant that Ping An saved up to buy for him.

His son was so considerate of him, thinking about buying him a cochlear implant as a birthday present; he should have been happy.

But if possible.

He would rather not have the cochlea.

All he wants is for his son to come back.

He would give up everything as long as Ping An could come back. Zhou Shun, his hands covered in blood, clutched the cochlear implant and could no longer hold back his sobs.

The cries of grief moved everyone present, and many even had tears welling up in their eyes.

Xu Qingling felt as if her heart had been touched at that moment.

A strange feeling suddenly washed over me, it was quite subtle.

She seemed to be able to sense Zhou Shun's heartache.

So, she can also gradually develop feelings and emotions?
-
Zhang Hengquan was arrested, and the Chengze Building, which was supposedly built for his son, was naturally abandoned.

Zhou Shun took Zhou Ping'an's remains back with him.

Hu Yuanyuan did not stop him, even though she knew that he was her biological son.

But she knew she was unworthy to be Xiaoze's, no, Ping'an's, mother.

If given a choice, the child would prefer to be Ping An.

Zhou Shun saved Ping An and raised him, so it was only right to take him back; perhaps that was also Ping An's wish.

Bian Dong also notified the families of the other three teenagers so that they could take their remains back.

However, Xu Qingling had to think carefully about how to deal with the four young souls who had died tragically.

After all, all four of them have deep-seated obsessions.

Even if they were asked to reincarnate now, they wouldn't want to.

Before Xu Qingling could figure out how to get rid of their obsession, Bian Dong brought her some news.

Zhang Hengquan committed suicide.

He died in prison after running into a wall before being sentenced.

Perhaps, death is the best relief for Zhang Hengquan.

Just ...

Death is a clean break, but the living suffer even more.

Take Hu Yuanyuan for example.

He already suffered from depression and was in a semi-mad state. While searching for Ping An's remains at the construction site, his black hair turned completely white.

Now that news of Zhang Hengquan's suicide has arrived, her heart is even more tormented.

That was her husband, whom she loved deeply, and who also loved her deeply, but who was also the murderer who killed their child.

The person who suffered the most was Hu Yuanyuan.

Therefore, after donating all of Zhang Hengquan's property and learning of Zhang Hengquan's suicide, Hu Yuanyuan could no longer bear it and went insane.

She even disappeared.

It wasn't until a month later that Zhou Shun saw Hu Yuanyuan lying disheveled in front of his house.

She had gone mad, but she kept muttering the names Xiaoze and Ping'an.

Zhou Shun remained silent for a long time before finally bringing her in and arranging for her to stay in the direction of Ping An.

Ping An's biological parents...

Zhang Hengquan goes without saying, but Hu Yuanyuan didn't do anything wrong; she was just a pitiful mother.
-
It's that time of year again for the college entrance examination, and Zhan Weiwei, who retook the exam for a year, has successfully been admitted to a university in Beijing.

Dragging her suitcase to university for registration, Zhan Weiwei stood at the school gate, clutching the amulet hanging around her neck, her eyes reddening.

"Brother, did you see that? I'm going to be a college student now."

"I will study hard, work hard in the future, and strive to be a useful person to society and the country."

"Brother, you'll always be with me, right?"

A gentle breeze stirred, and the amulet she held in her hand moved, as if her brother were responding to her.

Zhan Weiwei and her brother Zhan Bingjun depended on each other since she was a child. Her brother was her closest relative.

Her brother was also very, very good to her.

Sometimes, even if she lost everyone else in the world, Zhan Weiwei couldn't bear to lose her brother.

Unfortunately, she still lost her brother in the end.
