Chapter 953

Zhou Hanzhi fainted. He was knocked unconscious by the stick I hit him with.

Zeng Zhi carried him all the way to a local hospital in Shan Province and got an IV drip.

I couldn't tell how I felt, but I followed Zeng Zhi closely, watching Zhou Hanzhi lying on the hospital bed. His face had become even paler.

"Why did he protect Zhao Feihan? He clearly knew that Zhao Feihan was the murderer." I actually felt a little guilty in my heart, but the words I said were very tough.

"Sister-in-law, don't you know exactly who Brother Zhou wants to protect?" Zeng Zhi didn't turn around until this time, looking at me with a frown.

This was the first time I saw Zeng Zhi like this. He was serious and dissatisfied: "Brother Zhou and Zhao Feihan don't have any friendship. To some extent, they are even rivals in love. Brother Zhou is not lacking in intelligence, so how could he protect an outsider like him? Brother Zhou is protecting you!"

"You have already determined that Zhao Feihan is the murderer who killed Yuan Tianye. You simply cannot listen to others' words. In fact, the more others persuade you, the more excited you become. You want to put Zhao Feihan to death. If Brother Zhou had not stopped you just now, if your stick had hit Zhao Feihan's head, you should know what the consequences would be."

"Brother Zhou knew he couldn't stop you, so he chose to take the hit in this way to relieve your anger."

He, is it for me?

My mind was in a mess, but I subconsciously denied it: "No way, how could he do this for me?"

"How could it not be for you? Sister-in-law, didn't you ask Brother Zhou why he helped you? You also know that Brother Zhou and Yuan Tianye have no friendship, and they are also rivals in love. Brother Zhou has always been trying to stop you from marrying Yuan Tianye. But after Yuan Tianye had an accident, why did Brother Zhou rush to help you, and even control Zhao Feihan in advance?" Zeng Zhi became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Isn't he doing this all for you? Because this is what you want to do, so he is willing to do everything to help you, even if it means he has to ignore his own injuries. He has worked so hard for you in his entire life. Don't you feel it at all?"

It suddenly started raining outside the window. After dark clouds gathered, a strong wind blew up, and raindrops as big as soybeans hit the window diagonally. I looked at Zeng Zhi, who was frowning and looking anxious in front of me, and then at Zhou Hanzhi, who was lying quietly on the hospital bed with a pale face. My heart, which had been heavily defended, made a small "crackling" sound.

There was a small crack in the chest.

Some emotions that have been suppressed for a long time can't wait to burst out through this small crack.

The sound of rain outside the window is getting faster and faster, just like my heartbeat at the moment, extremely intense.

Hot blood rushed to my head, and there was a rumbling sound in my ears, but then it became quiet, over and over again. I looked at the pale, handsome face on the bed, and my heart, which had been numb, suddenly came alive.

Because my heart started to hurt.

Densely painful.

Did I not feel anything in my heart? Of course not, but I was never sure because I was afraid of being disappointed.

I am fed up with the feeling of having expectations in my heart but being disappointed when the expectations are strongest. That feeling is too cold, too painful and too sad.

I've told the story of the boy who cried wolf so many times that even if the wolf really comes, I wouldn't believe it anymore.

My heart was in turmoil, but I chose to suppress my emotions. Finally, I asked in a low voice, "But how does he know that Zhao Feihan is not the murderer?"

Zhao Feihan must be the murderer. It was he who killed my Xiaoye, otherwise he would not have hidden himself. After Xiaoye had the accident, he didn't even dare to answer my calls, and hid in his hometown in Shan Province. It was obvious that he was guilty.

Besides, he had plenty of motivation.

As for Zhao Feihan's reaction just now, although his expression looked very natural, as if he had just learned about Xiao Ye's situation, he was surprised and shocked.

But I still think that it was all a performance. Since Zhao Feihan was able to kill people, he must have rehearsed in advance everything that might happen afterwards. He performed very realistically, but it was all fake. He performed it to avoid responsibility.

"Zhao Feihan has also been brought here. He is in the next ward. Sister-in-law, why don't we go over and ask again?" But Zeng Zhi did not explain too much. He just made this suggestion directly.

I nodded, and five minutes later, we appeared in Zhao Feihan's ward next door. The doctors and nurses had left the ward, leaving only the three of us.

Zhao Feihan had an IV on the back of his hand and his head was wrapped tightly in bandages, but his eyes were red and there were tears in them: "Poor little thing, are you telling the truth? Xiaoye is really gone?"

Damn it, he actually asked me such a question!

For a moment, I really wanted to beat him up again.

But Zeng Zhi stopped me and stared at Zhao Feihan's face with a serious expression: "Zhao Feihan, it's really not you who killed Yuan Tianye?"

"How could it be me? How could I possibly hit him? I like him so...so much." Zhao Feihan became extremely excited, but then became timid. He lowered his head and his voice was trembling.

I felt like I was struck by thunder and almost thought I had heard it wrong.

What did Zhao Feihan say? He said he liked Xiao Ye?

"I have lived for more than 30 years, fighting in the dark every day and surviving in conspiracies. I am used to not trusting others, and I am also used to no one trusting me. I am a rat in the gutter. I have never seen the light, and I don't believe in the so-called beauty at all." Zhao Feihan's voice became low, as if he was mumbling to himself.

But it fell into my ears so clearly: "It was not until I met him that I realized there are really pure and kind people in the world. I was secretly jealous of him, but I was unconsciously attracted to him. This feeling is really strange. I don't want to admit it, but I have to admit it."

"You were my original target, because I didn't want someone to take away what originally belonged to me. I wanted to get everything from my adoptive father, so even if I didn't like you, I still wanted to get you and marry you, so I tried every means to get close to you, but I didn't expect that my plan would go astray for the first time. I was supposed to move to your house and be your neighbor, but somehow I bought the house across the street from you."

"We were supposed to be rivals in love, but I prefer to watch him, when he's angry, when he's laughing, and even when he scolds me, I feel like he cares about me."

"Do you remember the last time we had dinner together? I put drugs in your cup, but in fact, I would never touch you. That was my last madness. I wanted to destroy you so that he would not marry you."

Zhao Feihan's words became increasingly crazy, so crazy that I couldn't understand them anymore.

Does he know what he is talking about?

These things were far beyond my expectations, and I felt like I was struck by lightning. I stood there with a blank mind.
