Chapter 1623: The More He Cared, The More Fragile He Became
He was practically brought up by his sister.
But human emotions were so strange. The more he cared, the more he could not tolerate the slightest provocation. Not to mention, the person who provoked him was his biological mother.
When Ling Liwei told him for the first time that Zheng Yan did not really like him and treated him well only to confuse him and loosen his guard, which might one day cause him to die, his first reaction was not fear, but disbelief.
He even foolishly ran to Zheng Yan and promised her that he would be obedient and that his sister would not hate him.
However, Ling Liwei kept telling him that as long as Zheng Yan was around, his father would not like him.
Zheng Yan was only nice to him to show off in front of his father.
In addition, his father was busy with work, and he rarely stayed at home. Every time he came back, he was always strict with him, but he would hug his sister and constantly coax her, buying her a lot of gifts..
A child’s mind was always sensitive.
If no one had deliberately reminded him, he might not have thought too much about it, but Ling Liwei would always magnify these small things and push all the blame onto Zheng Yan. Gradually, Zheng Hao also wavered.
Adolescence was the time for rebellion. When he decided that his sister did not really like him, and was just using him, he became very angry and wronged.
All he wanted to do was to take revenge on her.
Therefore, he listened to Ling Liwei’s words and spread rumors about Zheng Yan.
In fact, at that time, he did not know that it was a rumor. He had always listened to Ling Liwei’s words and thought that Zheng Yan was a person who was not what she appeared to be.
Just like how she treated him well, it was a cake with broken gla.s.s.
It looked beautiful, but it would be b.l.o.o.d.y if he ate it in one bite.
He waited for Zheng Yan to be angry and for her to fight back, but after waiting for a long time, she seemed to only be sad.
At that time, it was not that he did not suspect that he was wrong. His sister was actually not a bad person.
However, just as he wavered, Ling Liwei would find other things to show him Zheng Yan’s ambition until Zheng Yan entered the company one step earlier than him and received the approval of the company’s upper management..
The compet.i.tion between the siblings seemed to have turned white-hot in an instant, and they could no longer return to the past.
Looking back now, he could actually feel that Zheng Yan was not as scheming towards him as Ling Liwei had said. The human heart was made of flesh, and he could feel Zheng Yan’s kindness towards him.
However, he had already gone wrong, and Ling Liwei would not allow him to turn back.
He could only hypnotize himself and tell himself that Zheng Yan was such a bad person to make himself feel better..
“Sister, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. I didn’t really want to kill you. I just didn’t have the courage to tell you what I know. That was my mother…”
Zheng Hao covered his face with both hands. The young boy cried like a child.
Tears flowed out from between his fingers. He was so emotional that he was sobbing all over.
Zheng Yan had been waiting for this apology for many years. When she really heard it, she appeared very calm.
She did not even cry. Her eyes were slightly red.
After listening to Zheng Hao quietly, she stood up from the chair without saying a word and turned around to walk out.
After taking a few steps, she stopped again and turned around to look at Zheng Hao, who was still crying.
No emotion could be seen on his bright face.
“On the day you get out of prison and go home, remember to ask the butler to cook a bowl of pig’s feet noodles for you.”
