Chapter 115: Chapter 114 Knock Down
Lin Aiguo sometimes really doubted whether the Lin Xia standing before him was truly his eldest daughter.
Her gaze towards him was so cold as if it had formed ice, and it was filled with intense hatred!
Just as Lin Aiguo was about to curse out loud, Qian Chunli hurriedly intervened and urged, "Lin Xia! You mustn’t get angry with your dad like this, we’re all family; it looks so ugly to fight like this!
Think about what the neighbors might say if they see this—it would be embarrassing! The elderly are still at home, aren’t they? How can you think of living alone?
Come on, just pack up your things and come back with us! Your dad just has a bad temper, but deep down he really misses you!
And look at what happened to your eldest brother, such a big incident occurred and he didn’t even tell the family; anyone would get angry upon hearing that..."
Although that was what she said, it was not what she was thinking at all; the best outcome for her would be for each of them to stay far away from each other.
She had long realized that Lin Xia and her siblings did not intend to return, so her words were meant to show Lin Aiguo how magnanimous and understanding she could be and to leave a good impression on others, while also certainly creating the opposite effect.
Lin Aiguo felt that Qian Chunli’s words made sense, to hoodwink them into returning first and then he could sort them out properly wasn’t too late!
He suppressed his rising anger, "Hurry up and pack your things! All of you are coming home with me!"
Lin Xia saw right through Qian Chunli and Lin Aiguo’s scheme, but no matter how much they said, she definitely wouldn’t fall for it.
"This is our home—where else would we go? Wasn’t it you who told us to get lost?"
Lin Aiguo did not have Qian Chunli’s acting talent; he outrightly cursed, "Well, now I am telling you to roll back home! And if you back-talk, I won’t be polite!"
He had long wanted to fiercely beat Lin Xia with the stick in his hand, until she begged for mercy!
How dare she pull a knife on him! How dare she defy him! She was beaten too lightly! She wasn’t subdued!
Lin Xia also gripped her own stick tightly, "All the words are yours! We dare not go back! From now on, we will live our separate lives! You and your family can live well without us!"
"What are you even saying!" Unable to hold back his rage any longer, he swung his stick, cursing as he did so, "I’m going to teach you a lesson today!"
How could Lin Xia just let Lin Aiguo hit her? She immediately wielded her stick towards him, followed closely by Lin Dong, while Lin Qiu gripped her stick stiffly, unsure of what to do.
Lin Aiguo shouted curses loudly, but being outnumbered two to one, he couldn’t gain any advantage.
He called for Lin Qiang’s help, and Lin Qiang, who indeed disliked Lin Xia, charged at her. Lin Dong and Lin Qiu certainly couldn’t just stand by and watch. Seeing her sister about to be hit, Lin Qiu also clenched her teeth and joined in, leading to a chaotic fight among them.
From the sidelines, Qian Chunli worriedly watched her son, while she wasn’t too concerned about Lin Aiguo.
She figured they would just make a show of it and not dare to seriously hit their father.
She hadn’t known yet about Lin Xia stabbing Lin Aiguo; otherwise, she wouldn’t have thought this way.
In the midst of the brawl, Lin Qiang suddenly saw his opportunity and aimed for Lin Aiguo’s back.
He had to avenge the slap his mother had suffered, and Lin Aiguo’s words about him taking over were only a dream—all these things made him hate Lin Aiguo intensely.
Unexpectedly, he miscalculated and struck Lin Aiguo on the back of the head.
Lin Aiguo fell to the ground without even having the chance to turn his head!
Qian Chunli witnessed her own son striking Lin Aiguo and screamed!
Lin Xia and the others were also stunned; they had not expected Lin Aiguo to be knocked down by Lin Qiang.
People both inside and outside of the courtyard turned their attention to Lin Qiang, who still maintained his striking pose, not understanding why he would do such a thing.
Lin Qiang stood there expressionless, his stick falling from his hand with a "clatter."
He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, and he hadn’t been particularly ruthless either, just thinking of teaching Lin Aiguo a lesson and letting him think that it was Lin Dong and the others who had hit him.
Several neighbors who had come to watch the excitement at this point all rushed into the courtyard.
"What are you waiting for! Hurry up and get him to the hospital!"
"Oh my goodness! Someone’s been beaten to death!"
Lin Xia quickly told Lin Dong to go push the cart.
She had never imagined that Lin Qiang would knock Lin Aiguo down, and seeing Lin Aiguo lying there on the ground, to be honest, Lin Xia felt a dull pain in her heart, a bit of discomfort and sourness.
Lin Qiu was looking at Lin Aiguo in the same way, with a complex expression on his face.
When Lin Dong pushed the cart over, neighbors frantically reached out to help lift Lin Aiguo onto the rear of the cart, then steadied him for the trip to the hospital.
It was only now that Qian Chunli reacted, seeing them lifting Lin Aiguo whose eyes were firmly closed, she too reached out her hand but didn’t know where it would be appropriate to touch him.
"Ah! Aiguo! What happened to you! Wake up, wake up!"
She was extremely panicked inside, as it’s said that the back of the head is very vulnerable. If Lin Aiguo had indeed been seriously injured or had died, wouldn’t her son Qiangzi have to end up behind bars?
Lin Qiang stood there numbly watching them; he didn’t know whether Lin Aiguo had been beaten to death by him.
He wanted to run but felt his legs were as heavy as lead, unable to move them, and his lips trembled, unable to utter complete sentences.
It was still Qian Chunli who, not reassured, kept pulling on him, "Qiangzi! Keep up!"
Everyone had seen how hard Lin Qiang had hit him, and it wouldn’t do for him to run off halfway.
No matter what, they had to see whether Lin Aiguo was alright. If, unfortunately, something bad happened, she would have to do whatever it took to save her son!
Her son was her life itself!
All along the way to the hospital, Qian Chunli couldn’t stop crying. She didn’t even know with what feelings she was walking to the hospital!
In a hurry, Lin Xia and the others brought Lin Aiguo to the hospital. After examination, it turned out to be not so serious; he was just temporarily unconscious from being hit. The on-duty doctor suggested it would be best to keep him for observation.
Only then did everyone truly breathe a sigh of relief. Lin Xia thanked each of the helpful neighbors one by one—there was only time for verbal thanks due to the emergency.
After the neighbors had left, Lin Xia, seeing that Lin Aiguo wasn’t in serious trouble, also wanted to take Lin Qiu and Lin Dong back home with her.
Qian Chunli grabbed Lin Xia’s hand, not letting her go, "Lin Xia! With your dad like this! You can’t go!"
Even if the doctor said it wasn’t serious, Qian Chunli was still afraid.
What if Lin Aiguo had complications later, and his own children weren’t by his side, would they have to rely on those who came after him?
Besides, who knew whether Lin Aiguo was aware that it was Lin Qiang who had swung the stick? If he knew, would he let them off easily?
"Why can’t I leave! If I don’t go, wouldn’t he be furious seeing me when he wakes up!" Lin Xia certainly didn’t want to stay. Was she supposed to wait to get beaten up by Lin Aiguo once he woke up?
"Lin Xia! How can there be such deep-seated hatred between you and your father!" Qian Chunli held onto Lin Xia tightly, "How can you be so heartless! No matter what, he’s your father!"
Lin Xia tried to pry Qian Chunli’s hand away, but she was holding on too tightly.
"Let go!"
"I won’t let go! Lin Xia, you guys can’t leave!"
