Chapter 607 Yuan Jinyong Turns into a Demon
"It smells so good!" Xiaoguang smelled the aroma, climbed out of bed, and leaned against the window, drooling. "Dad, what are you eating?"

Hearing the sound, the scarred man turned around, glanced at the source, and handed over a skewer of pork belly.

"Thank you, Dad!" Xiaoguang took the meat skewer, took a deep sniff, and said while swallowing hard, "It smells so good!"

He turned to look at Xiaocao, "Sister, time to eat barbecue!"

Xiaocao turned over, her back to him, and mumbled, "I'm not eating. I'm going to sleep. You can eat by yourself."

"It smells so good! Sister, are you really not going to eat any?" Xiaoguang asked in surprise.

The scarred man probably heard the noise and shouted, "Eat by yourself, ignore her."

“But I want to share with my sister…” Xiaoguang’s voice trailed off as he spoke.

"Eat quickly, then go to sleep," the scarred man urged.

"I understand," Xiaoguang replied softly.

Xiaocao closed her eyes, her mind filled with the words her mother had said before she disappeared.

Jin Yong, can you please stop pushing me?
—I really can't do it, please don't force me, okay?
—Jin Yong, I am your wife, I am not the kind of woman who goes out to sell herself!

—Ah! It hurts…it hurts so much…

Xiaocao curled up tightly, not daring to think any further.

My mother must have been beaten by Yuan Jinyong again that day.

He's so bad; he hits his mother all the time.

Since Xiaoguang got a little older, Xiaocao has often been woken up in the middle of the night. Yuan Jinyong would drink alcohol at night and always beat his mother.

Once, Xiaocao mustered up her courage and ran out to protect her mother, asking Yuan Jinyong to stop hitting her.

But when he drank, he became like a madman, not only beating his mother but also trying to beat her.

She and her mother were both terrified.

The mother knelt on the ground and kept begging Yuan Jinyong not to hurt Xiaocao.

After that day, her mother told Xiaocao not to get up at night no matter what noise she heard.

The more Xiaocao tried to avoid recalling it, the more the sounds she heard that night echoed in her mind.

She heard her mother crying.

Mom said it hurts so much...

The pain must have been unbearable for Mom to secretly leave alone.

Xiaocao clenched her small fists tightly, secretly making up her mind.

One day, she will leave this place to find her mother.

Leave behind Yuan Jinyong, who turns into a devil when he drinks.

clang-

Xiaocao was awakened by the sight of broken glass.

Her eyelashes trembled, but she dared not open her eyes.

Yuan Jinyong, completely drunk, smashed an empty bottle on the ground, cursing, "Damn it, they're all forcing me! They're all bastards!"

He stood up, holding onto the balcony railing, and walked unsteadily into the house.

After glancing at the two sleeping children in the room, Yuan Jinyong kicked the door. Seeing that neither of them moved, he turned around and went back to the living room to smoke.

After a while, he suddenly kicked over the small table in front of him and angrily cursed, "Yu Qiaoping, why the hell won't you help me?"

Xiaoguang, who was fast asleep, was startled awake and mumbled, "What was that sound?"

Xiaocao quickly covered his mouth to stop him from making a sound.

Yuan Jinyong has started acting crazy again. It would be terrible if he rushed in and hit her and her brother.

Yuan Jinyong grabbed a stool, stormed into the kitchen, and slammed it down on the freezer, which was sealed with tape, each slam harder than the last.

"I'm almost finished, and you're still clinging to your chastity like a virtuous woman?"

Xiaocao hugged her younger brother, hot tears streaming down her face.

She suddenly felt incredibly fortunate.

Thankfully, my mother has already left this place.

Otherwise, I'll get beaten really hard tonight.

The next day, the sun shone brightly under a clear blue sky. Jiang Yuan went out after breakfast.

Fu Xiaoxiao and Fu Xiaohang remained at the Jiang family's house. The siblings volunteered to cook a meal for everyone today.

On her way to the police station, Jiang Yuan was still worried that her kitchen would be blown up.

"Yuanyuan, why are you here so early?" Xiao Xu smiled and waved to her.

Jiang Yuan entered the office and chuckled, "Good morning, Xiao Xu. Has Ziqi arrived yet?"

"Not yet," Xiao Xu said. "It should still be on its way."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan pulled out a chair and sat down next to her. "Xiao Xu, do you have someone you like?"

Xiao Xu: Yes.

Jiang Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly, and she asked in surprise, "You have someone you like?"

"It's you!" Xiao Xu said with a bright smile.

"I see." Jiang Yuan laughed. "I meant the opposite sex, is that right?"

Xiao Xu shook his head, "No, not at all."

"So, do you have any plans to be in a relationship?"

"nor."

Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and patted her shoulder. "Great minds think alike."

"Good morning, what are you talking about?" He Lewei came in carrying a cup of soy milk.

Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu exchanged a glance and smiled, "It's a secret."

"I see." He Le put down her soy milk and nodded seriously. "Since it's a secret of you girls, I won't gossip."

After he finished speaking, he yawned and asked, "We're going to the hospital to see Zhou Li later, are you coming?"

Jiang Yuan: "I'll go, but I need to see Zhou Li's cat first."

"Zhou Li's cat has arrived." Chen Ziqi walked over carrying a pure white Napoleon cat.

Tangyuan opened its round, bright cat eyes and looked around curiously.

"Hi, little cutie." Jiang Yuan waved at it. "I'm Yuan Yuan, what's your name?"

"Meow~ Tangyuan (sweet rice ball)."

"Good boy/girl." Jiang Yuan patted its head and asked, "Tangyuan, what's your owner's name?"

Tangyuan: "The master's name is Zhou Li."

"Come here, let me give you a hug." Jiang Yuan reached out her hand to it. "Shall we talk in the conference room?"

Tangyuan snuggled into her arms.

Xiao Xu entered the meeting room with his notebook.

"Tangyuan, have you eaten?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Tangyuan obediently replied, "Meow~ I've already eaten. That human brother fed the cat."

"That's good." Jiang Yuan said, stroking the dog's fur. "Can you tell me what happened at home these past two days? Why did Zhao Guangshu tie Zhou Li up and beat him?"

When this was mentioned, Tangyuan became agitated, her back tensed, her fur stood on end, and her cries became rapid.

"Meow meow meow! That scoundrel suddenly came to the house and asked the owner to treat him to dinner, so the owner ordered takeout for him."

The incident occurred in the early morning of September 7th.

Zhao Guangshu suddenly arrived at Zhou Li's house.

Zhou Li opened the door and saw the person standing outside. A look of surprise appeared on his face: "Zhao Guangshu?"

Zhao Guangshu was covered in dust and his hair was greasy. "Zhou Li, it's been a long time."

Zhou Li looked at him suspiciously, "Did you need something from me?"

"Can we come in?" Zhao Guangshu peeked into the living room behind him.

Zhou Li hesitated for a few seconds, but still politely stepped aside to make way, saying, "Please come in."

Zhao Guangshu's shoes were covered in thick mud, but he had no intention of changing them. He simply lifted his foot and stepped onto the clean, soft carpet.

Zhou Li frowned deeply as he looked at him.
