Chapter 227 The future will prove us right.

For the next period of time, whenever she had free time, Song Zhining would go to Pingli County to visit Xu Weixin.

Perhaps it was because Xu Weixin had never had any friends, or perhaps it was because of Song Zhining's friendliness, that the two became friends.

Although Xu Weixin is only 8 years old, ...

Perhaps because children from divorced families mature early, Hsu Wei-hsin is also quite precocious.

Moreover, Song Zhining discovered that Xu Weixin was indeed very intelligent and showed a strong interest in science and technology.

She thought that if Xu Weixin hadn't died young in his predetermined fate, but had lived and grown up, he might have become a scientist.

When Song Zhi Ning handed the ice cream to Xu Weixin, she touched Xu Weixin's curly hair. This child is truly both lovable and heartbreaking.

The little guy thanked Song Zhining, ate his ice cream, and mentioned that his mother had finally called him yesterday.

“Mom said she’s been quite busy with work lately, but she’ll come to see me once things calm down.”

Although her mother couldn't come, Xu Weixin felt relieved to receive a call from her mother and know how her mother was doing.

Song Zhining hummed in response, but did not reply.

Only she knew that Wang Wei wasn't busy with work, but was receiving treatment.

Indeed, once Wang Wei has recovered from this treatment, she will be able to come and see Xu Weixin.

By then, Xu Zhongchen's case should have been settled.

“I believe you will live with your mother,” Song Zhining said.

Xu Weixin's eyes lit up, and she gave a loud "Mmm," saying, "Thank you, sister. When I see my mother, I'll introduce you to her."

After all, Sister Song was his first friend.

Through Xu Weixin's account, Song Zhining learned that the children who bullied Xu Weixin when he was performing in the frog costume that day were his classmates from the same grade.

However, those classmates never liked Xu Weixin, and when they learned that Xu Weixin was working part-time at the square, they kept mocking him in class.

That day, after learning that he was performing as a frog in the square, she deliberately came over and shoved Xu Weixin.

"Sister, am I embarrassed to wear this for the performance?" Xu Weixin asked in a somewhat muffled, childish voice.

When she was being pushed, Hsu Wei-hsin, who was wearing a bulky frog costume, looked rather clumsy. After being pushed down, she couldn't get up and became the object of their toy.

Hsu Wei-hsin cried inside the frog suit at that time.

He didn't understand why they were bullying him, nor did he understand what he had done wrong.

Looking at the confusion in Xu Weixin's eyes and his listless appearance, Song Zhining patted his head and said, "Xu Weixin, look at me."

Xu Weixin looked up and gazed at Song Zhining.

“Xu Weixin, you did nothing wrong. Just because they outnumbered you doesn’t mean they were right to do it.”

"Don't doubt yourself because of the bad behavior of bad people."

"Whether you choose to live with your mother or work hard to earn money, there is nothing wrong with that."

"Once we've decided on something, we must stay true to our original aspirations and persevere."

"The future will prove us right."

These were actually the words Song Zhining wanted to say to herself.

Stay true to their original aspirations and persevere; the future will prove that their approach was correct.

Xu Weixin's pupils widened slightly, as if she was savoring and understanding Song Zhining's words.

After a while, he seemed to finally understand what was said, his eyes lit up like stars, and he gave a big "hmm".

Even her voice rose a little, "Sister, I understand."

"That's good. Hurry up and eat your ice cream, or it will melt."

"Ah."

……

Xu Weixin and Song Zhining parted ways, and after finishing her part-time job, she went home.

Hsu Wei-hsin is very happy today.

Song Zhining's words of encouragement strengthened his resolve, and his boss started paying him a salary weekly.

Every week, Xu Weixin was happy when it was time to settle her wages. When she got home, her father, Xu Zhongchen, wasn't there. Xu Weixin could hear her stepmother seemingly comforting her younger brother in the master bedroom.

Xu Weixin returned to her small room, intending to hide her wages.

Just as I hid, I heard a faint voice coming from behind me.

"What are you hiding?"

Xu Weixin was startled. When he came to his senses, he saw his stepmother holding his younger brother. He quickly shook his head and shrank back slightly, denying, "No, nothing, I didn't hide anything."

Unfortunately, the stepmother simply didn't believe her.

"Let me tell you, if you steal anything from the house, you'd better hand it over, otherwise I'll find it and hmph..."

The stepmother's cold snort made Xu Weixin tremble again.

"No, I didn't steal anything."

The stepmother pushed Xu Weixin away, held the child in one arm, and started flipping through the pages with the other.

They ransacked Xu Weixin's room, which had been very tidy.

Fortunately, Xu Weixin hid it quite well, and no matter how hard she searched, she couldn't find it.

Just then, a sound came from the door.

At this time, it was clear that Xu Zhongchen had returned home from get off work.

"You little brat, are you going to talk or not? Hurry up and take out what you've hidden, or else..." As she spoke, the stepmother glanced outside, her eyes full of implications.

Xu Weixin knew what her stepmother was implying.

In the past, whenever he disobeyed his stepmother, she would make up all sorts of lies to get his father to discipline him.

Thinking of her father's lesson, Xu Weixin couldn't help but shudder.

Hsu Wei-hsin was afraid.

Even the exposed skin, not covered by his clothes, showed bruises.

but……

That was the money he wanted to give to his mother so they could live together.

It was money he earned from a part-time job.

He can't give it to his stepmother.

“No, I didn’t hide anything,” Xu Weixin shook her head firmly.

The stepmother sneered, "Fine, I'll see if your words are tougher, or your father's belt is tougher!"

As she spoke, she picked up the child and walked outside.

"husband……"

Her voice was filled with sobs, "Husband, you have to stand up for our son!"

“That milk powder was meant for our little Cai, but Xu Weixin keeps stealing his brother’s milk powder.”

"There wasn't enough for Xiao Cai to eat, and he was crying loudly from hunger."

She cried and complained, and then her younger brother started crying loudly as well.

At that moment, Xu Weixin heard a loud shout.

"Xu Weixin, you get out here right now."

Xu Weixin walked out shakily and saw Xu Zhongchen walking towards him step by step under the cold white light, holding a belt in his right hand.

"Xu Weixin, you actually stole your brother's milk powder!"

Did I not feed you?

"If I don't teach you a lesson today, you'll become unruly in the future."

Xu Weixin kept shaking her head, "No, no, I didn't!"

Xu Zhongchen simply wouldn't listen to his denials.

Just as Xu Zhongchen was about to swing his belt, and Xu Weixin closed his eyes, covered his head with his hands, and trembled, the doorbell suddenly rang!
