Disliked by everyone? She is clearly the most beloved one in the rich family!

Yu Zhi was stunned for a moment.

He asked Meng Yingnian uncertainly, "You... aren't serious?"

"I'm serious." After a few seconds, Meng Yingnian changed the subject and added, "But it's just something I can think about."

Yu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Meng Yingnian still had his wits about him and hadn't forgotten that whipping a corpse was illegal.

But Meng Yingnian said, "Cremation is now the norm. I guess there won't be any bodies left to be dug up and whipped."

Yu Zhi: “?”

Wait, that's not the point!

Meng Yingnian thought for a moment, "But if there's no body, there are still ashes. Let's dig up his ashes and scatter them."

Yu Zhi: “???”

Meng Yingnian's words sounded absurd, but there was no trace of joking in his expression.

He was serious to the point of being crazy.

Just like being possessed by a demon, he is completely driven by instinct and will not give up until he achieves his goal.

Meng Yingnian immediately took out his cell phone and called Chen Xun.

As a good secretary who is very filial to his parents, Chen Xun never takes more than ten seconds to answer his boss's call.

The domineering president and his secretary were already planning to purchase the cemetery when Yu Zhi came to his senses.

Yu Zhi stood up and walked to Meng Yingnian, snatching his cell phone without saying a word.

He said to Chen Xun on the other end of the phone: "Don't listen to him, Chen Xun, he's drunk and talking nonsense!"

Chen Xun was confused: "Mr. Yu?"

Are you drunk?

But the voice clearly sounded clear, and the acquisition plan was clearly stated... although it was crazy to suddenly acquire a cemetery.

But! A general secretary with an annual salary of several million will not question the boss's actions!

Even if the boss goes crazy, he must have his reasons!

Yu Zhi pointed the speaker at Meng Yingnian's mouth and looked at him: "Tell me yourself, are you drunk?"

Meng Yingnian acted contrary to his usual behavior and did not do as Yu Zhi said.

The alpha pursed his lips tightly and met the beta's gaze directly, without avoiding or dodging.

Yu Zhi felt Meng Yingnian's rare stubbornness in the silence.

His heart felt like it was being twisted, yet also like it was being held up by soft cotton. It was painful, yet solid.

Yu Zhi spoke again, his tone softening, with a coaxing tone: "Meng Yingnian, listen to me this time, okay?"

The hatred surging in Meng Yingnian's heart gradually calmed down under the gaze of his lover.

I don’t know how long it took, but Meng Yingnian finally gave in.

Meng Yingnian said to Chen Xun on the other end of the phone, "Let's put the acquisition on hold for now."

Chen Xun was confused, but he was tactful and never asked any more questions.

"Okay, Mr. Meng."

"Any other instructions?"

"No."

After saying that, Meng Yingnian hung up the phone.

Yu Zhi returned the phone to Meng Yingnian.

Meng Yingnian didn't reach out to take it, just sat there and looked at him.

In just a few seconds, the area around Meng Yingnian's eyes turned red.

Yu Zhi had never seen Meng Yingnian so distraught.

He is obviously powerful and omnipotent.

Meng Yingnian whispered, "I'm sorry."

Yu Zhi suddenly felt a lump in his throat.

He tried to lighten his tone: "Why are you apologizing for no reason? You haven't been drinking, so why are you talking nonsense?"

Meng Yingnian repeated: "...I'm sorry."

His voice was lower and hoarse than usual.

"I'm too late."

"I'm sorry, Zhizhi, I didn't protect you well..."

Meng Yingnian stopped talking.

Guilt and heartache were like a huge rock blocking his heart.

Meng Yingnian said in frustration: "...At this point, there is nothing I can do for you."

The last time he felt so incompetent was five years ago.

After the car accident, he was rescued several times and returned to the world from the gates of hell.

His family was afraid of upsetting him and deliberately concealed the fact that his brother had passed away.

By the time he was discharged from the hospital and returned home after the first operation, his brother's funeral had already been over.

The culprit of the car accident was also found out by the family, and the police have intervened in the investigation.

Everything is proceeding according to criminal case procedures.

The murderer was eventually sentenced to death by the court.

The death penalty is carried out in designated detention facilities.

No one should be present at the scene except the judges and executors.

On the day of the execution, he used his connections to enter the detention facility.

He wanted to see the murderer die with his own eyes.

It was on this day that he was overwhelmed by his own incompetence.

Today, criminal law has become more humane, with injections replacing shootings.

Death row inmates receive three injections.

The first shot is sodium thiopental, which anesthetizes the prisoner and makes him unconscious.

The second shot is Pavlon, which relaxes the prisoner's muscles all over his body.

The third shot is the key to ending the prisoner's life. The high concentration of potassium chloride can kill the prisoner in a short period of time.

During the entire process, the prisoners do not feel any pain, which is comparable to... euthanasia.

After the third shot, he saw the murderer's peaceful death and collapsed on the other side of the glass window.

At that time, he couldn't stand up yet. He was sitting in a wheelchair, pounding on the glass desperately, roaring and cursing, wanting to tear the beast into pieces!

He said he would not accept such a lenient sentence.

He said his brother died in a pool of blood, his body run over by a car, his body shattered, yet why did the murderer die peacefully and with dignity? Why!!!

Is this what they call justice? Is this what they call retribution? He refuses to accept it! He cannot accept it!

His parents, housekeeper, bodyguard, and police officers at the scene all rushed over to stop him.

He struggled like a madman, even at the risk of falling off his wheelchair.

If you can't walk, crawl.

He desperately crawled towards the door. He wanted to go in and cut the beast into pieces with the sharpest knife!

Humanization? Fuck humanity!

Is that a human? He's clearly a beast, worse than pigs and dogs!

Finally, he was held down by several people and injected with a sedative. His eyes went black and he lost consciousness.

After waking up, he learned that the murderer's body had been taken away by his relatives and buried in the cemetery.

Every day he wanted to escape from home and dig that beast out of the ground.

The wound split open, then split open again after being stitched up, and his injured leg was once again in danger of amputation.

His family members took turns to persuade him, but he wouldn't listen to a word they said.

His mind was full of thoughts of destroying everything, including himself.

Amputation?

He didn't even want his life, let alone a mere leg.

Until Wen Yiying came to see him.

After the car accident, Wen Yiying could not accept the pain of losing her husband and suffered from severe depression. She attempted suicide countless times, wanting to follow her husband.

The Wen family brought Wen Yiying back to Shanghai and watched her day and night.

He was unable to take care of himself at the time, and he heard about Wen Yiying's situation from his parents.

But when Wen Yiying came to see him, his mental state was completely different from that of someone who didn't want to live.

She was as gentle as before.

But there are also differences.

He noticed Wen Yiying's slightly bulging belly.

Wen Yiying smiled and told him that he was going to be his uncle.

It is also said that this is the continuation of Meng Yingtian's life.

He began to let go of his hatred at that moment.

Not for anything else, just to accumulate good karma for this unborn child.

His father was such a gentle and kind man, the child could not grow up in hatred.

Since then, he no longer mentioned the digging of graves and whipping of corpses, nor did he harm himself, and he began to actively cooperate with the treatment.

He decided to stand up and take on all the responsibility for his brother.

He wants his brother's child to grow up well, and he wants to be that child's safe haven.

Everyone is slowly recovering from the pain of losing their loved ones.

But Meng Yingnian knew in his heart that the feeling of helplessness he felt when he saw the murderer die peacefully that day had not dissipated with the passage of time.

He still thought about it often, still hated it, and still wanted to dig up the grave and kill the beast's entire family to bury his brother.

Now the same hatred has increased.

He is still so incompetent.

Apart from sorry, Meng Yingnian didn't know what else to say to Yu Zhi.

He was heartbroken.

Meng Yingnian's red eyes hurt Yu Zhi's heart.

He opened his arms and hugged Meng Yingnian.

"Don't apologize, Meng Yingnian."

Yu Zhi choked up and said, "Silly or not, you've done a lot for me, there's nothing to blame yourself for."

Meng Yingnian hugged Yu Zhi back, his hands tightly around his waist.

The tall alpha, who has always protected the beta from wind and rain, is now as fragile as a child.

"sorry."

"I failed to protect you and my brother."

Listening to Meng Yingnian's hoarse crying voice, Yu Zhi couldn't stop crying.

At the same time, he understood one thing.

It turns out that tears can be salt sprinkled on wounds, or they can be medicine to heal pain.

They are all falling apart.

They are also healing.

Those scars that had repeatedly festered in pain finally began to grow new flesh and blood.
