Bai Qing's expression changed when she heard the voice.
After that, Zhang Heng saw the iron door being opened, and a middle-aged woman stumbled out of the corridor. She looked very flustered, and her hair was disheveled. She was still wearing pajamas and slippers. Because she was too flustered, she did not pay attention to the steps under her feet when she ran away, and she fell directly to the ground.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Bai Qing could no longer care about Zhang Heng's situation. She quickly trotted over and helped the middle-aged woman on the ground.
When the middle-aged woman was helped up, she could not help but shiver. When she saw who it was, it was as if she had found a life-saving straw. She shouted, "Qing Qing, Qing Qing, your father wants to kill me!"
"What are you talking about, mom? Don't worry. Tell me slowly. "Bai Qing patted the middle-aged woman's back, trying to calm her down first.
However, her actions did not have any effect.
Because the next moment, the footsteps in the corridor sounded again, and the middle-aged woman's face became frightened again. Zhang Heng was a little familiar with that kind of fear, because he had seen similar expressions on real college students' faces before.
"Dad?" Bai Qing called out hesitantly.
The next moment, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked out from inside.
He seemed a little surprised to see Bai Qing, and of course, he was even more surprised to see Zhang Heng on the other side.
"Dad, what's going on?" Bai Qing asked.
"This is an adult's matter. It's best for children not to intervene," the middle-aged man said.
"But my mother said you want to kill her."
"Your mother has some mental problems. I'm going to take her to the hospital for a check-up," the middle-aged man said lightly.
"No, I'm not sick. You are the one who is sick. I feel that you are a little abnormal during this period. It feels like you have become a different person," the middle-aged woman cried and shouted.
The middle-aged man was silent when he heard this.
"And let me tell you, just now, when I was in the toilet, your father suddenly rushed in, grabbed my hair, and dragged me out. His eyes were murderous. "The middle-aged woman hugged Bai Qing tightly." Don't! Don't let him come closer! "
Bai Qing looked at the middle-aged man hesitantly.
The latter said, "This is all your mother's illusion. I said that she has some mental problems, and I'm going to take her to the hospital for a check-up."
Bai Qing volunteered. "Then I'll go with you."
"No, you stay at home. Children shouldn't get involved in adult matters," the middle-aged man said in an unquestionable tone.
It could be seen that he was a person who was used to giving orders. When talking to his family, he also used a commanding tone.
Probably disturbed by the noise outside, the two families on the first floor opened their doors one after another. One of the men walked out with a kitchen knife in his hand and said warily, "What's wrong? I heard someone shouting for help."
Bai Qing's father snorted coldly and looked at his wife on the ground. "Are you satisfied now? You've embarrassed yourself. Get up from the ground."
Instead of getting up, the middle-aged woman shrank behind Bai Qing.
"Is it a couple quarrelling?" The man with the kitchen knife heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said with dissatisfaction, "Don't disturb others when you quarrel. Look at the time now."
"It's not a quarrel. It's my husband who wants to harm me." The middle-aged woman still insisted. Seeing that there were more people around, she felt a little more at ease and stopped trembling.
"Hey, this is what you're doing," the man with the kitchen knife raised his eyebrows. "I don't care about your housework. Well, you should solve it on your own. Stop screaming." After that, he turned around and went back into the house.
On the other side, the neighbor who came out with him to check on the situation found that it was just a false alarm. He closed his door early and went home.
So the middle-aged woman looked around and finally set her eyes on Zhang Heng for help. "Young man, you can't leave. Otherwise, only the two of us will be left."
"I'm not leaving, Auntie," Zhang Heng said politely.
"Who are you?" The middle-aged man frowned.
"He is my classmate, Dad," Bai Qing replied.
"How many times have I told you not to go out with boys in the middle of the night? Didn't you say that you were watching a movie with the girls in your class?"
"We came back from the cinema. I was worried that it would be unsafe for Bai Qing to come back alone, so I sent her back after the movie was over," Zhang Heng said calmly.
"Sweet talk. Do you really think I don't know the relationship between you two?" The middle-aged man warned. "You have already sent her to the hospital. There's nothing for you to do here."
Zhang Heng did not leave when he heard that. Instead, he stood in the same place. "You want to send her to the hospital, but she doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Since I have nothing to do, why don't I accompany her?"
"You really think you're an outsider," the middle-aged man said coldly. "I'm busy taking my wife to the hospital now, and I'm not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. You'd better not show up in front of me again. Otherwise, I will go to school to find your class teacher and ask him to call your parents out for a chat."
One had to admit that this trick was quite lethal to ordinary high school students. After all, calling their parents was the ultimate killer move against middle school students.
However, this trick did not work on Zhang Heng. The latter calmly said, "My parents are abroad, and I haven't seen them for a long time. I'm afraid it's not easy for you or the class teacher to call them out."
"Heh." The middle-aged man seemed to be so angry that he laughed. "You must have other elders."
"I have a grandfather, but he rarely interferes with my affairs," Zhang Heng said truthfully.
The middle-aged man seemed to be too lazy to talk to Zhang Heng anymore. He said directly to his daughter on the ground, "You go home first."
"Dad, Zhang Heng is a very good person. He is just worried that I still have my mother." Bai Qing summoned up her courage and said, "Can't you tell me what happened between you and my mother? Although my mother can be a little vain sometimes, she has always been in good spirits. Why did she suddenly become mentally ill? And … "Bai Qing hesitated and then said," Your behavior has been a little strange recently. "
"I said, children shouldn't interfere in adults' affairs," the middle-aged man said with a straight face. "You just need to mind your own business, study hard, and get into a good university. That will be the greatest help to this family. Also, don't go out with boys in the future."
Bai Qing's eyes showed a touch of disappointment. "You've been like this since I was a child. You hide everything from me, treating me like a child who knows nothing. It's as if I will never grow up. If you bring each other pain, why do you force yourself to live under the same roof and torture each other? If it's because of me, you didn't give me a harmonious family environment." Bai Qing's eyes showed a touch of disappointment.
