The Self-cultivation of Omega Running with the Ball

When Wen Zhiyao entered the room, Wen Qiu's calm expression immediately disappeared, and he told Pei Du the truth of what the doctor had said. He became more and more annoyed, and slammed the table in anger, "This disgusting old beast, he didn't even let his own son go!"

Pei Du's eyes were also cold. Playing dirty tricks in the business world or having a dissolute private life was one thing, but what Xie Guangming did had crossed the bottom line of being a human being, and he was suitable for direct cremation. He had previously ordered his men to check on Lan Ze's affairs, and soon the email came over.

According to the information, Lan Ze is not Xie Guangming's biological son. His mother is Dai Mengya, who was once a famous socialite - or a high-class prostitute. When she was young, she relied on her beauty to linger in the beds of rich and famous people. Later, she thought she had found true love and gave birth to a boy, Lan Ze, out of wedlock. However, she was abandoned by the unfaithful man.

Dai Mengya gradually aged and lost her beauty, and with a burden, she had a hard time for a few years. Then, Xie Guangming offered her his hand, and she naturally enjoyed the happiness and became Xie Guangming's fifth wife.

Of course, apart from his first wife, Xie Guangming never got married to anyone else. What was even more strange was that the wives he chose all had beautiful children. The rumors in the circle had long been out of control. Dai Mengya should have known that Xie Guangming was after Lan Ze, but she still pushed her child into the kang with her own hands.

Wen Qiu clenched his fists when he heard this. It was too similar. Everything seemed to be a replay of the past. The beautiful and arrogant woman at the school gate gradually overlapped with Guan Qingcai in his memory. Did Guan Qingcai know these things when she brought him to marry into the Xie family? Did he also sacrifice himself to the devil for the wealth and glory that was within his reach?
He ran away back then, so how many children like him, or even younger than him, suffered the same fate?
Suddenly, his hand was grabbed, and Pei Du's thumb rubbed his clenched fist, with a look of pity. Wen Qiu only then realized that his palms were pinched and bleeding, but he was completely unaware.

He raised his head and glanced at Pei Du, "I have something to tell you... There is a reason why Xie Guangming hates me so much."

Pei Du's expression froze. He had been filled with a faint worry in his heart. At this moment, he couldn't help holding his breath, "Well, tell me."

"I might be the luckier one, because I saw through what kind of person Xie Guangming was from the beginning and was very wary of him." Wen Qiu organized his words slowly, "But his interest in me never diminished. It should be when I was in my senior year of high school. One day there was a banquet at home. I thought it was too noisy, so I used the excuse of being drunk to go back to my room to sleep. In fact, I was not drunk at all. That night, I suddenly woke up and felt someone touching me quietly..."

Wen Qiu still remembered that he vaguely felt a hand touching his leg, and he woke up with a start. He sat up and took a closer look in the moonlight, and saw the shriveled body of an old man and a lustful face.

"It was Xie Guangming. He thought I was drunk, so he climbed onto my bed. The problem is..." Wen Qiu raised his little finger and shook it in front of Pei Du. "You know what? The thing he had when he stood up was only this big. It's not much thicker than a toothpick. I've never seen something that small in my life, so after a moment of stunned silence, I burst out laughing."

Wen Qiu was indeed frightened at first, but after seeing the toothpick, a feeling of absurdity and contempt arose in his heart, washing away his fear completely.

Xie Guangming had never expected that he would not only not be afraid, but also laugh at him, his face flushed red. At that time, Wen Qiu - to put it nicely, he was young and energetic, to put it bluntly, he was arrogant and conceited - rushed out of the room, shouting: "There's a thief! There's a thief in the house! Someone come quickly!"

So the butler, servants, some guests who had not left, and his mother all rushed over to catch the thief.

They rushed into the room and saw Xie Guangming who had just had time to wrap himself in a bed sheet.

An awkward silence spread, and the people behind were still shouting and rushing in, and then they were sucked into the vortex of silence.

The result of this incident was this: Xie Guangming was so angry that he yelled at everyone to leave and did not show up at home for several days. Everyone tried their best to selectively forget the facts, and all public opinions were handled as if there was a thief. Their words were so consistent that Wen Qiu suspected that he was mentally ill.

It was at that time that he felt that he could no longer stay in this family. Although the toothpick is thin, it still hurts. So after hearing the news that He Yuge had returned to China, he packed his bags and ran away from home overnight, intending to go to his father - how could he have expected at that time that it was just jumping from one hell to another.

Wen Qiu finished the story in a relaxed tone, because he had not suffered any serious harm and finally got revenge happily, so he never felt that the incident had caused any psychological trauma. But Pei Du's eyes were filled with sadness and pain, as if he had heard a tragic story.

He reached out and hugged himself tightly, as if it was a silent comfort.

I am not a fragile child who needs a loving hug to heal, Wen Qiu thought a little boredly. But it felt good to be hugged, so he did not move, thinking that Pei Du was sometimes very emotional, angry for himself, sad for himself, and a life of worry and toil.

He put his head on Pei Du's shoulder and said, "Now that I think about it, the reason why he became a pedophile is because his condition is almost a disability. Adults would only find it ridiculous. He can only vent his animal desires on mentally immature children."

Pei Du hummed, then said calmly: "Kill him."

Wen Qiu's eyes widened, wondering if he had heard some extraordinary and vicious words, "Ah?"

"Even if he is convicted of indecent assault or rape, how many years can he be sentenced? Moreover, there are many people like you who have been violated and it is impossible to obtain evidence," Pei Du said coldly, "I don't think there is any need for such a scum to live."

"I understand your anger, and I also hope that he explodes right here and right now," Wen Qiu pushed his embrace away, looked him in the eyes and said seriously, "But if you keep solving problems this way, aren't you afraid that you will be exposed one day? Even if you kill people who deserve to die, no one is above the law."

"Don't worry," Pei Du remained unmoved. Even Wen Qiu could not understand the storm in his heart at the moment. The anger could not be calmed down unless he devoured something. "I will minimize the risk."

"The lowest risk?" Wen Qiu said, "But there will always be surprises."

Isn't the biggest surprise right in front of you? Four years ago, you had a far-reaching plan and made your moves calmly. Who could have thought that an unreasonable Li Wenfei would suddenly appear and overturn your chessboard?

"More importantly," Wen Qiu used a little force to hold his shoulders tightly, "I don't want to see blood on your hands."

Pei Du looked at him deeply, and after a long while he said "hmm", which meant he was convinced. Suppressing the killing intent in his heart, he seemed a little restless, and subconsciously took out a cigarette box from his pocket, but when he saw Wen Qiu in front of him, he put the cigarette box back.

Then he grabbed Wen Qiu's neck and kissed her hard, using his lips and tongue to occupy her, biting her with his canine teeth, and kissing her as lingeringly as possible. Wen Qiu stood up and let him kiss her, wrapping his arms around his waist and patting his back gently.

After the kiss, Pei Du said in a hoarse voice: "But at least make him pay the price he deserves."

Wen Qiu wiped his mouth breathlessly, "That's exactly what I meant."
If Wen Qiu had previously avoided cooperating with Pei Du, after discovering Lan Ze's miserable condition, he quickly made up his mind to form an alliance with Pei Du. If he was to say who was the most petty, cunning, and the most capable of torture and revenge among the people he knew, it would be Pei Du.

He believed that this was not only to help Wen Zhiyao's good friend, but also to help the helpless self back then, and to help innocent children who might be harmed in the future.

Later that day, as they were discussing countermeasures, there was no news from the Xie family, but the school called to inquire.

Wen Qiu blocked it without a single flaw, saying only that Lan Ze was visiting a friend's house and there might have been some misunderstanding in communication with Lan Ze's mother.

The head teacher knew that he couldn't afford to offend either of these two schools, so he gave him Lan Ze's mother's phone number and asked them to communicate it themselves.

Wen Qiu called Lan Ze's mother and said provocatively, "I'm sorry, Lan Ze may have to stay at my house for a few more days. Ms. Dai, have you called the police?"

There was an angry breathing sound from the other end, and he hung up the phone angrily.

"The Xie family doesn't dare to do anything. No, I guess Dai Mengya didn't even dare to tell Xie Guangming about this." Wen Qiu said, "But Xie Guangming will find out sooner or later. What actions do you think he will take?"

"The child is not important to him. The only thing he is worried about is the marks on his body." Pei Du speculated, "He will consult a lawyer about the legal risks. If the risk is assessed to be small, he may hold off for the time being."

Wen Qiu nodded. "I think so too. He is fearless now because he knows that we can't do anything to him with just Lan Ze. It would be great if we could find more evidence against him. It would be even better if we could put him in prison for life."

"Well, come and take a look at this." Pei Du turned on the computer and logged into his secret account.

Wen Qiu glanced over the whole thing and was surprised to find that Pei Du's investigation into Xie Guangming was very in-depth. This man had many bad deeds, and they were not just sexual. All those crimes combined were enough to get him shot several times.

"So don't worry. Even if I don't use the methods you don't like, I have 10,000 ways to kill him." Pei Du said coldly, "But we can't act rashly. Xie Guangming has committed so many evil deeds but has been able to stay safe for decades. There must be a reason for that."

"Well, I can go testify if necessary," Wen Qiu grabbed his wrist, "No, I must go. I can't let him get away with it."

"Okay, let's stop here for today." The clock pointed to three o'clock. Pei Du turned off the computer and urged him to go to bed. "I will prepare a detailed memo for today's matter and all the information, and we will slowly make long-term plans."

"Well, you should go back and rest early." Wen Qiu was also very tired. He rubbed his eyes and stood up. "Thank you for staying with me so late. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with you..."

It was the grudge between him and Xie Guangming. He wanted to save this child who had the same experience as himself. In fact, Pei Du could have stayed out of it.

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? Your business is my business." Pei Du's blood pressure rises every day because of his wife. He pinched Wen Qiu's cheek unhappily, "You're eager to distance yourself from me as soon as you've used me. You're just relying on the fact that I like you, right? Is it so hard to admit that you need me?"

"..." Wen Qiu bit his lip. After hearing what he said, he seemed a little bit unkind, but he didn't mean it. He couldn't help but... He looked away guiltily and slapped his hand away, "I want to go upstairs to see the children."

Pei Du raised his eyelashes and glanced at him. With great patience, he refrained from further questioning and followed him upstairs step by step.

Wen Qiu felt his back tingle when he was stared at. "Why are you following me?"

"Go see my son."

"…Just say this to my face, don't let Xiao Zhi hear it."

Pei Du was in a bad mood at the moment and his patience was running low, so he just snorted in response.

"What do you mean?" Wen Qiu had been spoiled by his obedience recently, so he started to get angry. "Is this how you treat your sponsor?"

When I was supported by you, did I ever talk back to you so unreasonably? You have no professional ethics at all.

"I can do anything for you, but I also need a reward," Pei Du stared at him in the dark corridor, and said word by word, "If you want me to cooperate, you have to feed me."

Wen Qiu knew what reward he wanted. Giving him a body was not enough. What he wanted was his heart. He narrowed his eyes and rebuked him, "Don't be so shameless to ask for it. What is given to you is yours."

The two of them were arguing in low voices as they pushed open the bedroom door. Suddenly, they were stunned and stopped talking at the same time - Lan Ze was the only one on the bed, his small body curled up in a ball, sleeping very peacefully.

But I heard that Yao was nowhere to be found.
