"Zhixin." When Huo Mien picked up the phone, his voice was filled with love.
"Sis, are you off today?"
"Yes."
"Then let's go visit Dad's grave at noon."
"Okay." Even if Zhixin didn't call, Huo Mien was going to go anyway.
It had been seven years since Uncle Jing passed away. Seven years ago today, Uncle Jing got into a car accident.
"I went with Mom this morning and she wasn't in a good mood. I'll go with you again at noon."
"Don't you have classes today?"
"No, I'll go to the library to study in the afternoon."
"Okay, wait for me. I'll see you at the entrance of the cemetery."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Mien's heart sank …
She still remembered that night seven years ago, when she was on her way back from cram school. A black Buick business van drove straight at her, and she didn't have time to dodge.
At that moment, Uncle Jing, who came to pick her up from school, suddenly rushed out and pushed her away.
In the end, she could only watch as Uncle Jing died under the wheels of the car … and his blood flowed like a river.
She was only slightly injured, but Uncle Jing had lost his life.
If it weren't for her, Uncle Jing wouldn't have died …
Originally, she thought it was just a traffic accident. However, when she found out that the driver who caused the accident was the Qin Family's driver, she was dumbfounded.
The Qin Family was so bold that they didn't even hesitate to hire a hitman to kill someone. Did they need their own driver to do the job?
These rich families didn't care about ordinary people at all. Her mother and brother were heartbroken.
She went to court time and time again to sue the driver. At that time, the Qin Family had already sent Qin Chu abroad.
She, on the other hand, had to bear the pressure that normal people couldn't bear. In the end, they insisted on not paying compensation.
The driver who caused the accident took the blame and went to jail. However, he was only sentenced to five years of drunk driving.
At that time, she deeply felt the unfairness of the world, the difference between the rich and the poor.
She also knew that with her background, she would never be able to fit in with a rich family like the Qin Family.
It was also at that time that she completely gave up on the idea of being together with Qin Chu …
Putting away these heavy memories, Huo Mien washed his face and changed into a pair of black pants and a black short-sleeved shirt. Then, he put on a pair of black sunglasses and went out. When he passed by a flower shop, he bought a bunch of white chrysanthemums.
Because the cemetery was in the suburbs, they had to transfer three times. When they arrived at the cemetery, it was almost noon.
"Sis." Jing Zhixin waved at Huo Mien from afar.
"You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you?" Huo Mien lovingly patted Jing Zhixin's head.
"Not too long, only about ten minutes. Sis, you seem to have lost weight recently. Is it because there are too many night shifts?"
In the face of his brother's concern, Huo Mien only smiled faintly. "No, I've been on a diet recently."
The siblings then entered the cemetery together and placed the flowers in front of Uncle Jing's tombstone.
There was also a basket of fruits and flowers that their mother had sent over in the morning.
"Zhixin, all these years, have you ever blamed and resented me like Mom did?" Huo Mien took off his sunglasses, his expression sorrowful.
Jing Zhixin looked at his sister beside him and had a big reaction. "Sis, what are you talking about? How could I? I can't blame you for what happened back then. The Qin Family are all bad people. If Dad didn't die, you would have died. You guys are the closest to me. "
"But if I didn't ignore the warning and date Qin Chu, that tragedy wouldn't have happened." Huo Mien bit her lip, her heart filled with guilt.
After hearing what Jing Zhixin said, Huo Mien was extremely surprised. She couldn't believe that her nineteen-year-old brother would say something like that.
