How to Build a Harmonious Family

Chapter 16 Private Theater 2)

"He won't come to see you."

Zhu Juan's crying suddenly stopped because of this sentence.

Seeing the stunned look on her face, Ning Shen felt a little happy.The reason why he visits Zhu Juan in the mental hospital every month is because he still respects her as his elder, which doesn't mean he has forgiven Zhu Juan for what she did to Xia Junyan.

"Also..." Ning Shen turned his face and glanced at the nurse, "Your salary has always been paid by Aunt Zhu's son, please don't say that again in the future."

The nurse turned red when he said this.

Zhu Juan was in a daze, and naturally loosened her hand, Ning Shen took advantage of this moment to pull her hand away, ready to leave.However, as soon as she turned around, Zhu Juan reached out and grabbed her shoulder again.

"It's you...you took my son away!" She gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Don't think that I don't know how dirty your mind is. I would even kiss Junyan when he was asleep. I saw it! Dead gay! You spoiled my son!"

While shouting, Zhu Juan clenched her five fingers into fists and hit Ning Shen's back hard.Seeing this, the nurse quickly rang the bell to call the nurse over, and then helped to hold Zhu Juan back: "Sister Zhu! Sister Zhu! Calm down first!"

Ning Shen was hit several times in a row, his brows became tighter and tighter, so he turned back, accurately grabbed Zhu Juan's wrist, and forcefully pulled her back to sit by the bed, holding her shoulders firmly with both hands.After all, Ning Shen is a grown man, and it's easy to restrain a thin and aggressive woman. Zhu Juan was held down by him, unable to move no matter how much she struggled.

"Yeah, I like him, that's why I want to take him away from you." Ning Shen lowered his head slightly, looking at her with a cold look, "If it wasn't for me to take care of him, he has been killed by you now. died!"

Ning Shen is usually gentle and kind to others, and rarely shows such a stern look. Not only Zhu Juan was petrified, but even the nurses were frightened, fearing that he would do something to Zhu Juan, he hurriedly persuaded: "Xiao Ning, let go first, let go. You also know that sister Zhu is more than yourself, so don't be angry with her..." It was just because of the conversation between Ning Shen and Zhu Juan just now that she looked at Ning Shen The look in his eyes also became a little weird, and it could even be said to have a little disgust.

"Of course I won't do anything to her." Ning Shen said lightly, "After all, she is a patient."

Just as the nurses had arrived, Ning Shen let go of Zhu Juan, turned around and went out.

Originally, when he came here today, he wanted to stay with Zhu Juan for a while and chat with Zhu Juan before leaving as usual, but Ning Shen himself was very upset when it turned out like this.If Zhu Juan could keep that quiet look all the time, he could temporarily forget about the past, but Zhu Juan didn't know what kind of evil she was, and she started to throw up and go crazy again. Ning Shen immediately recalled her past That vicious and ugly face only makes me feel sick.

Ning Shen got on the bus on the return journey, opened the window a little bit for ventilation, and looked at the beautiful suburban scenery outside the window, wanting to calm down, but the scenes of the past still uncontrollably emerged in his mind.

That was when they were in elementary school.

At that time, the two lived in the old city on the other side of the Fujiang River, and lived in different buildings in the same community. Because they happened to be in the same class and lived very close together, they gradually began to go to and from school together and became inseparable. good friend.

In the first grade of elementary school, Xia Junyan's father hadn't left yet, and her mother, Zhu Juan, was just a suspicious and easily angry woman, far from crazy.Ning Shen was a little afraid of her at first and didn't dare to go to Xia Junyan's house to play, but then Xia's father bought Xia Junyan new building blocks, which happened to be what Ning Shen had always wanted, so he finally went.

Xia Junyan lived on the first floor. Behind the balcony of the room, a small yard was illegally expanded. There were beautiful flowers and plants in it, as well as stone tables and chairs.When he went to Xia Junyan's house for the first time, Ning Shen was dragged into the small yard by him to play with building blocks together, and later it became a small base for two people, where they would often share each other's new toys.

Xia's father is very busy with work, but occasionally he will come to play with them in the small yard when he is free. Zhu Juan will cut fruit for them to eat, and sometimes he will stay with Ning Shen at home to eat together and listen to them talk about what happened in school. fun.

Even looking back now, it is a wonderful childhood memory.

However, such peaceful and stable years did not last long. I don't know when Xia Junyan's parents began to quarrel frequently, and sometimes they even fought.Xia Junyan was terrified, and the bright smile from before was no longer on her face.Their small base has also moved. Ning Shen worried that Xia Junyan would be affected and injured when his parents quarreled, so he often took him to his home for refuge.

Ning Qian is lively and outgoing, often playing with other children outside, often not at home, which also happens to give Ning Shen and Xia Junyan the space to be alone.Xia Junyan would often hold the little bear doll that Ning Shen stuffed for him, sitting on the edge of the bed, sniffling and sobbing, talking about his family affairs.

Ning Shen still remembers Xia Junyan saying at that time that his mother would always tell him things like "Mom only has you" and "Don't leave your mother to betray your mother", which made him feel very uneasy.But Ning Shen was just a child not much older than Xia Junyan, even after hearing what he said, he couldn't think of any way to help him, so he could only clumsily coax Xia Junyan and wipe his tears when Xia Junyan was crying.

At the age of six, Xia Junyan was really a very cute child, very good at acting like a baby.Ning Shen is actually only a few months older than him, but when he is sad, he will cry and call out "Brother Ning Shen, hug me" in a childish voice.He's so cute and hurts so much.

Xia Junyan's dependence on Ning Shen made him feel like an older brother.Ning Shen, of course, prefers an innocent, cute and fragile child like Xia Junyan to his unlucky twin brother who spends his days running wild and causing trouble, digs out trees and catches earthworms under bird's nests.Probably from then on, Ning Shen began to feel that he should take the responsibility to take good care of Xia Junyan and protect him.

But as long as Xia Junyan still lives in that home, some things are unavoidable, and Ning Shen can't protect her even if she wants to.

Probably at the end of the first grade, in the hot July, Xia Junyan's father left home and disappeared. Zhu Juan's already sensitive nerves were finally broken completely, and she began to express the unwillingness and pain of losing her husband. Vent on his son.At first it was just scolding, and then it became beating again. The harder Xia Junyan cried, the more fierce the beating became. Later, Xia Junyan gradually didn't even dare to cry, and turned into a lifeless little zombie, with all the original vitality and aura lost Withdrawn from the body.Ning Shen felt very distressed and tried to make Xia Junyan happy by taking Xia Junyan out to play, but it had little effect.

Because of Xia Junyan's beating, Ning Shen even plucked up the courage to call the police, and ran to the police station without telling his mother, begging the police to save his friend.But because he was just a child, they didn't take all his words to heart. There was even a fierce police uncle who taught him not to call the police for such trivial things as parents' short-sightedness, as it would delay them from doing more important things. Work.Finally, she called Zhou Caihua and asked her to take her son back from the police station.Ning Shen wrongedly told Zhou Caihua the ins and outs of the matter, saying that he didn't intentionally go to the police station to cause trouble for others, but Zhou Caihua also said: "You, a child, don't care about other people's family affairs!"

The more Ning Shen thought about it, the more he felt wronged and sad, because this was neither a "small matter" nor a "nosy matter" to him.

Those who want to control can't, and those who can control don't. In the end, something happened to Xia Junyan.

The day before the end of the summer vacation, Ning Shen went to Xia Junyan's house to play with him, and found that the door of his house was not closed.Ning Shen peeked through the open gap and found a small figure lying in front of the sofa, surrounded by water and broken glass.

Ning Shen was terrified, and quickly opened the door to go in, and called Xia Junyan's name several times, but there was no answer.

Xia Junyan's usually ruddy and translucent cheeks were pale, even her lips lost their color, her eyes were tightly closed, and she probably passed out.Ning Shen looked at the broken glass on the ground, and Xia Junyan said that there was a large piece of wet cloth on his back, guessing that he might have been splashed with boiling water, and panickedly took out the old mobile phone that Zhou Caihua gave him from his trouser pocket with trembling hands , For the first time in his life, he dialed an emergency call.

Fortunately, the doctors and nurses on the line didn't take his child's words as a joke, and quickly dispatched an ambulance to give emergency treatment to Xia Junyan, who had fainted from the pain, and then sent him to the hospital.

Although Xia Junyan was fine, a hideous scald scar was left on her back in the end.
