Chapter 120 Mother and son talk
Lu Zixuan pushed the door open and saw Chen Ping still sitting at the table, holding a book tightly in her hands, her eyes dull, and she seemed to be in deep confusion. He stood aside, not knowing how to comfort her.
Chen Ping's face was heavy as he tore the book in half page by page.
"Son, I'm sorry. I've got you into trouble. I never understood what you meant by 'Virgin Mary' that you always mentioned.
Now that I have a knife on my neck, I suddenly realize that everything I learned before about fearing God, being kind and treating people with sincerity was all nonsense.
Do you know what the first sentence I learned from a book was? It was taught to me by Mr. Wei: 'Man is born good.'
He told me that people should have a reverent heart and not have the intention to harm others.
Everyone is born kind, but their eyes are temporarily blinded by darkness.
As long as your heart is sincere, you can eliminate the evils in the world.
So I always ignore what you say and do, and watch coldly from the sidelines. Although I don’t stop you, I never support you either.
Because I am waiting for you to suffer a loss, so that you can turn back to the right path.
Haha, it’s ridiculous that I, a complete idiot, am waiting for a smart person to come back to my right path.
Facts have proved that what I learned was all bullshit and garbage. The idea that knowledge can change your destiny is all lies.
Instead of learning these things, it is better to follow those uneducated vagrants and learn those rogue methods..."
Lu Zixuan witnessed Chen Ping fall from one extreme to the other, and decided to correct her concept.
"Your understanding, alas, is really wrong.
There is nothing wrong with the knowledge you have learned. The problem lies with those who use the knowledge.
I mentioned to you earlier that if knowledge is used by different people, the results will naturally be very different.
For example, a knife, in the hands of a murderer, is a sharp weapon for committing a crime;
In the hands of a chef, it becomes a cooking utensil;
In the hands of the woodcutter, it becomes a tool of labor.
What Mr. Wei teaches you is nothing more than the knowledge in books, but no one guides you on how to use it.
Whether to use it to benefit the community or to cause disaster, the choice is in your hands.
Just like today, if someone else suffered a loss, what would you do?
You would definitely advise others to be magnanimous and remind them to be careful in the future, right?
I have advised you more than once, but did you really listen?
No, because no matter how many times I advise you, it will not be as profound as your own experience.
Therefore, truly smart people are those who have suffered losses, not those who have learned it alone.
As long as you can recognize the evil spirits around you, it's worth it even if you pay a small price.
Don't be so pessimistic. You are lucky to have witnessed the complexity of human hearts at such a young age.
At least you won’t make the same mistake again in the days ahead.”
Chen Ping curled up on the table, her fingertips unconsciously fiddling with a piece of paper.
Her eyes were empty, as if she was tracing back to a distant memory.
“Son, why don’t you blame me?”
She suddenly spoke, her voice trembling slightly.
"I could have avoided all these disasters, but I chose to go all the way to the end."
Her voice became lower and lower, almost talking to herself:
"I can't express the pain in my heart. If you can just scold me, I'll feel better."
She looked up, her eyes flashing with complex light:
"Can you tell me more about the cause and result of the incident? Did Yi Zhonghai and his gang frame me?
What is your relationship with Lao Tong? How do you know so much about his preferences? "
Seeing that Chen Ping's emotions were gradually stabilizing, Lu Zixuan also got on the stool and sat firmly.
"Let me talk about Lao Tong first. Although we don't have the status of master and apprentice, he actually taught me a lot and provided me with many invisible connections."
He said slowly, with a hint of respect in his tone.
"Haven't you noticed that I've changed? I used to be impulsive, always wanting to confront people head-on and leave them speechless. I felt that was the only way to feel fulfilled.
It was Lao Tong who told me that the true way to deal with the world is to hide one’s shortcomings, and the true wisdom is to plan in secret.”
He paused, then continued:
"As for your case, I actually had no idea that Qin Huairu wanted to frame you. I always thought she was just using your power to make a little money, so I didn't pay much attention to it.
I see that you rarely have someone to talk to, so I don't want to interfere too much, so as not to be a bad person. As long as you are happy, that's all."
“Today I followed Director Wang to the match factory and the textile factory, just to try my luck.
I started to get suspicious after I learned that someone at the factory was pretending to be your brother and recommending workers to the factory."
“We are not short of money, there is no need for you to take this risk. I guess you may have been cheated.
I originally wanted to ask Lao Tong to use his connections to get you out, and that's it.
But this old man knew that you might be endangering the national interest, so he refused to take action. "
"I went to the police station to look for you. When I asked Zhuzi for help, I suddenly remembered that among the recommended workers, there were four with the surname Qin.
I thought this couldn't be just a coincidence, so I went back to the match factory, and after confirming that they didn't know you, I changed my plans.
I decided not to return the money, but to scare those people together with the factory director. Unexpectedly, I caught Qin Huairu and his sister directly. "
"Qin Huairu said those things purely because she was too jealous, and coupled with Director Zhou's strong attitude, she scared herself and said them.
As for your personal seal, I changed it for you without your knowledge, and it has been kept by Director Wang."
“I said this woman kept asking to see my private seal, but I’ve never used that thing, so I have no idea whether it’s real or fake.
So I don't have to take responsibility? Do I still need to be punished? "
Chen Ping nervously asked the question she wanted to know most.
Lu Zixuan gave her the answer she least wanted to hear:
“Don’t dream, they will face jail time, although it won’t be long, but they will definitely be punished.
This incident was caused by you, and you will be held administratively responsible. You will be notified soon that you will be expelled from the party and removed from your public office.
I let you come back today because Director Zhou showed me mercy and I won't hold Deputy Director Qian responsible."
"I will go to Director Wang and Lao Tong tomorrow and try to figure out a way to ask the district government to let you go and not hold you criminally responsible.
Telling you in advance is so that you can be mentally prepared, so that when the time comes for you to be notified, you will not be too disappointed and unable to accept it.
You can rest at home for the next few days. I will tell you the result when this matter has been resolved."
When Chen Ping heard this answer, her face suddenly turned pale, and the tears that had been suppressed for a long time poured down her cheeks:
"I was ruined by these bastards, and they just let them spend a few days in jail? What the hell did I do to anyone?
I think it's too light to shoot these beasts, they should be chopped up and fed to dogs."
Lu Zixuan's next words added salt to Chen Ping's broken heart:
“Although you are already very sad, I have to tell you the truth.
If I am not mistaken, Qin Huairu is pregnant and she has escaped again.
In fact, what Qin Huairu said was right. She was indeed blessed by God. It was a foregone conclusion that she would be able to escape from the disaster again.
However, she will not have an easy life either. I have arranged for her to be tortured more painfully than prison."
