Chapter 88 Homecoming 1
In her senior year of high school, her brother went to work on a construction site, saying he wanted to earn money for her college tuition.

Zhan Weiwei felt sorry for her brother, but she couldn't go against his wishes.

The only thing I can do is study hard, get into a good university, and give my brother a better life in the future.

But later, the older brother disappeared.

Zhan Weiwei searched the construction site repeatedly and even called the police, but she still couldn't find it.

He seemed to have vanished into thin air.

With her brother gone, Zhan Weiwei had no heart to study.

For Zhan Weiwei, studying hard is only for her brother. If her brother is not here, what is the point of her studies?
And so, that year's college entrance exam passed by as she searched for her brother.

But she still couldn't find her brother.

She tried distributing missing person notices, contacting construction site foremen... she tried everything, but she couldn't find a single trace of her brother.

She knew that since she hadn't found her brother for so long, he might have met with some misfortune.

Even so, she had to find her brother. She couldn't let him die without knowing why, she couldn't let him just disappear like that, as if he never existed in this world.

But my brother has a reason to exist in this world.

Her brother was the most important person to her.

Even if her brother is dead, even if she has to search for him her whole life, she will seek justice for him.

But she still couldn't find it.

Just when she was almost in despair, the unfamiliar police officers came to her door.

They brought her her brother's remains and told her the cause of his death.

At that moment, Zhan Weiwei was filled with resentment, and the resentment rising in her heart made her want to destroy the world.

She couldn't understand why her kind and honest brother had to suffer such misfortune, even his death was so cruel and painful.

But soon, a person named Xu Qingling came to find her.

He gave her a talisman.

The woman said that this was given to her by her brother, and that his almost broken soul now resided inside it. She said that as long as she wore it every day, it would help nourish her brother's soul and keep him company, so that her brother could be reborn into a better life in the next life.

They will be brothers and sisters again in their next life.

However, let her be the older sister instead.

In the next life, let her protect him.

In fact, this is also Zhan Bingjun's obsession.

His unwavering obsession until his death was to protect his younger sister.

So, as he wished, Xu Qingling handed him over to Zhan Weiwei, who was residing in the amulet.

Zhan Bingjun has found another way to protect his sister.

Bian Dong and Xu Qingling also went to contact and meet Liang Zhonghe's biological parents.

As for his adoptive parents, Bian Dong had them investigated.

The two did not have children at the time; they bought Liang Zhonghe from human traffickers.

However, after raising Liang Zhonghe for half a year, the woman miraculously became pregnant and gave birth to a boy.

Once you have your own child, who would want someone else's child that you bought?

As a result, Liang Zhonghe became an abandoned pawn and suffered abuse.

Unfortunately, in the case of human trafficking, buying and selling are no longer considered crimes.

So, they had no way of doing anything about the couple.

But after meeting the couple and their child, Bian Dong and others discovered that their son seemed to have a problem.

It was finally confirmed that he was an extremely arrogant teenager who would beat his parents at the drop of a hat, and was the kind of person who was inherently selfish.

Yet the couple continued to spoil him, even silently enduring his suffering. "Perhaps this son is their retribution."

All the bad things they did to Liang Zhonghe will one day be repaid to them by their own son.

But what about Liang Zhonghe's biological parents...?

When he saw the couple, who were not yet 50 years old but whose hair was already gray and who looked obviously very old, even Bian Dong, who was usually aloof and cold, was somewhat moved.

He also discovered that the couple had been searching for their child ever since the child was abducted.

From my early twenties to my forties now, I've been searching for almost 20 years.

Looking at the couple who were gazing at him with such hopeful eyes, Bian Dong couldn't even bear to tell them that their child had died.

Perhaps they sensed Bian Dong's hesitation.

The couple exchanged a glance and guessed what was going on.

When he spoke again, his voice trembled slightly, and his throat even choked a little, "Officer, please tell us. We can accept whatever the outcome is."

"Actually, after searching for so many years, we have given up hope."

"Now, finally we have news about Xixi, which is good news."

"Whether he is disabled, blind, or mentally challenged, he is still our child."

Of course, this is the best-case scenario; at least the child is still alive.

but if……

“If, if the child is gone, at least we want to bring him back. We can’t let him be all alone out there.”

After saying this, the couple could no longer hold back their tears.

Bian Dong sighed, suppressing his emotions, and said, "...That child is indeed gone..."

Now that things have come to this point, there's no need for him to hide it anymore.

However, at Liang Zhonghe's request, he did not reveal the true story of Liang Zhonghe's death. Instead, he said that Liang Zhonghe had accidentally fallen to his death while working at the construction site.

Bian Dong knew that Liang Zhonghe was worried that his elderly parents wouldn't be able to handle it.

Although they had already guessed the outcome, the couple still couldn't hold back their tears when they actually heard Bian Dong say that their child was gone.

"These are the child's ashes, and this is his memorial tablet..."

After Bian Dong finished speaking, Xu Qingling also spoke up.

She directly revealed her identity and said that Liang Zhonghe's soul now resides in the memorial tablet. As long as they make proper offerings and allow Liang Zhonghe's soul to be nurtured, Liang Zhonghe will be reborn into a good family in his next life, and the three of them may even have the opportunity to rekindle their kinship.

Although Xu Qingling is not very old, for some reason, her words are inexplicably convincing.

The couple believed Xu Qingling's words.

They were also more willing to believe that what Xu Qingling said was true.

Even though Xixi is dead, her spirit remains on this memorial tablet. Therefore, enshrining the tablet at home is equivalent to Xixi always being with them.

In this way, they were satisfied.

In this way, the rest of my life will have something to look forward to, and I won't feel like I'm suffering.

Soon, the couple took Liang Zhonghe's ashes and memorial tablet back to their hometown.

After Cui Xi was buried, his memorial tablet was also enshrined in the home.

Before Cui Xi was abducted, the couple were well-off, owning a house and a car in the city.

Later, in order to find the child, they needed money, so all these items were sold.

Now they live in their old house, which is small and dilapidated.

But they were content!
