Chapter 479: The Heart Is Still the Same (Chapter 40) In the park, many old people are doing Tai Chi here in the morning, and some young people are doing morning exercises. A young girl, wearing sportswear and headphones, is listening to

While running in the woods with music playing, she accidentally discovered something that seemed to be hidden in the grass on the roadside, so she ran over curiously. When she saw what it was, she screamed in horror.

"Ah - come here, there are dead people here!" The girl turned pale, backed away in horror, stood on the edge of the lawn and shouted loudly.

Her screams attracted several old people. The old people stepped forward cautiously. They saw a white body lying on the lawn, with long black hair flowing down like a waterfall, blocking the face. The body was covered with scars.

It must have been ravaged by someone. The old people were shocked and regretful. Some people took off their coats and put them on the "corpse", while others took out their mobile phones to call the police.

The police arrived quickly, and when they were about to carry the "body" into the car, they discovered that the body still had body temperature.

"She's still breathing, she's not dead, hurry up and get her into the car!" Fortunately, there was a forensic doctor accompanying her who knew first aid measures.

Bai Jiyao was still looking for his missing daughter when he suddenly received a strange phone call. The caller claimed to be the police and said that his daughter had been found and asked him to rush to the hospital immediately.

Bai Jiyao and his wife rushed to the hospital. Bai Meiwei was still in a coma. Her body was covered with tubes and there were obvious scars on her face. When the doctor told them that Bai Meiwei had been sexually assaulted, her private parts were bleeding, and her vulva was torn.

At that moment, Mrs. Bai fainted immediately, and Bai Jiyao's face turned pale and he almost fell to the ground.

In the corridor of the hospital, a female police officer asked Bai Jiyao about the situation on the night of the incident. Bai Jiyao burst into tears. He was filled with self-blame, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have ignored Meiwei. She was in a bad mood and went out to relax with her friends.

, after getting drunk in the bar, she hired a driver to take her friend home, but she didn’t expect that something happened to her. It’s all my fault!”

"Mr. Bai, don't blame yourself too much. It's not your fault that this happened." The policewoman comforted him and asked, "Who was the friend who went out with Miss Bai last night?"

"Her name is Helian Feiyan."

The policewoman asked a few more questions and then said, "Lao Bai, don't be sad. We will definitely find the criminals as soon as possible and bring them to justice."

Bai Jiyao's eyes were filled with sadness and he reluctantly nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

Bai Meiwei lay in bed for a day without waking up. The doctor extracted the body fluids of the raped prisoners from her lower body. After examination, they concluded that at least four people were raped. Bai Jiyao could no longer bear the blow.

He passed out on the spot, and when he woke up, he felt as if he had suddenly aged ten years, his old face was covered with frost, and his originally bright eyes no longer had the brilliance of the past.

Due to the egregious nature of this case and the fact that the victim was the daughter of a prominent family in the city, the police chief paid great attention and ordered a strict investigation of the case to bring the criminal to justice as soon as possible.

Bai Meiwei finally woke up after being in a coma for more than 40 hours. Mrs. Bai, who had been watching her bedside, saw her open her eyes and shed tears excitedly. She choked and said, "Meiwei, you finally woke up. Wake up."

Just come and wake up!"

Bai Meiwei looked at her blankly as if she didn't recognize her, without any reaction.

"Meiwei, what's wrong with you? I'm my mother!" Mrs. Bai looked at her like this, feeling uneasy in her heart, and carefully touched her face, "Meiwei, does it hurt? Wait a moment, Mom.

Go and call the doctor."

Bai Meiwei stared at her stupidly with blank eyes.

Mrs. Bai felt more and more something was wrong and quickly called the doctor. The doctor was a man. When he reached out and wanted to examine Bai Meiwei, Bai Meiwei suddenly trembled all over, held her head with both hands and screamed loudly. Her scream was full of

Madam Bai was so frightened that she almost stopped breathing. She threw herself on her and hugged her tightly, "Meiwei, don't be afraid. Mom is here and no one can hurt you anymore!"

"Ah - ah -" Bai Meiwei shook her head crazily, screamed crazily, and stared at the quilt with her feet.

Tears fell from Mrs. Bai's eyes. She hugged her daughter tightly, enduring the huge heartache and comforting her over and over again.

But Bai Meiwei was so excited that Mrs. Bai couldn't hold her down, so the doctor had to inject her with a sedative to prevent her from hurting herself.

Bai Meiwei fell into a deep sleep, her eyebrows furrowed and her face full of pain. Mrs. Bai stood beside the hospital bed, covering her mouth with her right hand, crying bitterly.

After some examinations, the doctor made a diagnosis. Bai Meiwei suffered a huge blow and became mentally ill. Bai Jiyao cured many diseases and saved many people in his life, but he was unable to cure his daughter's inner injuries. He was hesitant and in pain.

She wished she could tear those beasts who bullied her daughter into pieces!

A week later, the four men who killed Bai Meiwei were captured. They were all small leaders in a certain gang. After they were arrested, some people from the underworld threatened Bai Jiyao and told him to withdraw the lawsuit, otherwise they would set him on fire.

Their whole family.

Bai Jiyao did not take their threats to heart. Even if he risked his life, he would seek justice for his daughter.

During the investigation of the case, the police discovered that the four men had also bewitched/annihilated other women, and had participated in criminal cases such as kidnapping and robbery. In the end, they were punished for several crimes. The court sentenced them to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from ten to fifteen years.

Even if the four people are punished by law, it still cannot heal the damage suffered by Bai Meiwei. Although she has been discharged from the hospital, her mental condition is still very bad. She used to be cheerful and lively, but now she has become taciturn, unwilling to see people, and often sits alone.

She was in a daze in front of the window and was not interested in the people and things around her. She was paranoid all day long and always felt that someone was trying to harm her. Once someone approached, she would become nervous and frightened, kicking, hitting and screaming repeatedly.

Bai Jiyao suggested that she be sent to a mental hospital for systematic treatment, but Mrs. Bai firmly refused, "Meiwei is not crazy, we cannot send her there. She is just temporarily insane and will get better. I have asked my friends to contact them."

A good psychiatrist who will help Meiwei recover."

Bai Jiyao sighed and was about to persuade her when he suddenly heard a loud "bang", followed by the servant's frightened call, "Oh no, the lady has jumped off the building!"

Bai Jiyao's face was ashen and he ran out quickly. Madam Bai's eyes turned black, she clenched her teeth tightly and stumbled after him.

Blood, a lot of blood.

Bai Meiwei was lying on the concrete floor, with long seaweed-like hair wrapped around her face and neck. Her eyes were wide open, her body was twitching violently, and blood was constantly flowing from the corners of her mouth.

Bai Jiyao shouted heartbreakingly, "Call an ambulance, call an ambulance quickly!"

The ambulance arrived, and the medical staff carried Bai Meiwei, who was covered in blood, into the car and gave emergency treatment nervously. Bai Jiyao got into the car and Mrs. Bai also wanted to follow. Her feet were trembling and she seemed to be ready to fall at any time. Bai Jiyao refused.

Let her get in the car and let the servants help her back to her room to rest.

Fortunately, they lived in a villa with a low floor. Bai Meiwei jumped from the roof and her life was not in danger. However, the trauma was serious. Her legs were severely fractured, her waist was injured from a fall, and there were multiple cartilage tissue injuries. Bai Meiwei's world-weariness

Bai Jiyao's emotions sounded the alarm, and he decided to send his daughter to a mental hospital for treatment as soon as she recovered from her injuries.

After a year of treatment, Bai Meiwei recovered from her leg injury and stood up again. During this year, she also received psychological treatment, which was basically the same as ordinary people. However, she still could not face the past and her nerves were relatively fragile.

Unable to withstand stimulation.

In order for Bai Meiwei to live in a new environment, the Bai family immigrated to Canada and cut off all contact with the country. From then on, Bai Meiwei completely disappeared from the sight of the Lin family.

On the other side, Lin Zian resigned from his job without hesitation and offered to Jiang Ruolan to take over the restaurant. Jiang Ruolan was happy, but also a little ashamed, and said apologetically, "Zian, Mom was used by Bai Meiwei in the past and said a lot of hurtful things to you and Ru Xin. You

Can you forgive mom?"

Lin Zian was silent for two seconds and said, "Mom, I won't talk about the past. I hope you won't target Ru Xin again in the future."

"Of course. After so many things, I have figured it out. It is enough for you to have one child, Niuniu. I will not force you to have children again." Jiang Ruolan paused and said, "You are still planning to stay outside.

How long will you stay?”

Lin Zian was a little helpless, "Ruxin said that she doesn't want to go home for the time being, and I don't want to force her."

Jiang Ruolan's expression froze and she sighed, "After all, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have called Bai Meiwei home in the first place. It's normal for Ruxin to have knots in her heart."

Lin Zian didn't say anything. He knew very well that Ru Xin refused to go home. Not only that, but the harm they had done to her made her dare not trust love and family ties anymore. What he had to do was to rebuild her confidence.

Jiang Ruolan also had some concerns in her heart and secretly made a decision.

Ye Ruxin walked out of the elevator with Niu Niu and saw a familiar figure standing at the door of her house. She was stunned. Niu Niu had already jumped up to her happily, "Grandma——"

"Oh, little baby, I miss grandma so much!" Jiang Ruolan bent down and hugged Niu Niu, and kissed Niu Niu twice on the face with a smile on her face.

"Grandma, I miss you too." Niu Niu coquettishly hugged her.

Ye Ruxin looked at the happy faces of their grandparents and grandson, and slightly raised her lips, "You're here." She still had a grudge in her heart and couldn't call her "Mom" like she used to, so she simply omitted the title.

Jiang Ruolan straightened up, held Niu Niu's hand, and said with a smile, "How are you and Niu Niu doing recently? Are you still used to living outside?"

"Very good, I'm sorry to worry you." Ye Ruxin spoke very politely, took out the key from her handbag, opened the door, and politely asked her to come in.

Jiang Ruolan and Niu Niu sat on the sofa and looked at the layout of the room. Ye Ruxin put the cut fruits on the coffee table and smiled politely, "You can eat the fruits."

"Okay, Ru Xin, sit here, mom wants to say something to you." Jiang Ruolan touched Niu Niu's hair, "Baby, can you go back to your room and do your homework first?"

"Okay~"

The living room was very quiet, the two of them sat facing each other, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Jiang Ruolan smiled gently and said, "Ruxin, I haven't come to see you during this time because I feel too embarrassed to come to see you."

Ye Ruxin didn't expect that she would speak so thoroughly, and was stunned.

She continued, "I went too far in the past and hurt your heart. I am here to apologize to you today."

Her eyes were serious. Ye Ruxin pursed her lips and smiled slowly, "You are too polite. Let the past be bygones."

Jiang Ruolan grabbed her hand, with a look of earnestness in her eyes, "Ruxin, I don't ask you to forgive me, I just want you and Zian to get back on good terms with each other. Return home as soon as possible. Living outside is not a long-term solution.

"

Ye Ruxin was silent for a moment and said slowly, "Zian and I have reconciled, but I don't want to go back yet. I want to adjust my mood. Please understand me."

Jiang Ruolan sighed silently. From the moment they met until now, Ruxin has never called her mom. She felt a little uncomfortable, but it was her own fault. She couldn't blame others. She took out a key from her bag and put it in

In front of Ye Ruxin,

He said slowly, "Whenever you have time, go back and take a look. I bought new furniture and replaced all the old ones. If you don't like it, just tell me and I will replace it again. In the future

, that’s just the home of you and Zian, Niuniu.”

Ye Ruxin was stunned for a moment, and soon understood what Jiang Ruolan meant. She must have thought that she minded that Bai Meiwei had lived there, so she replaced all the old furniture with new ones.

Ye Ruxin pursed her lips and said, "Actually, you don't have to do this."

Jiang Ruolan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't cost much anyway, as long as you can live comfortably."

Ye Ruxin did not continue the topic, "You can stay here for dinner tonight. Zian will be back soon. He has just taken over the restaurant and needs to be familiar with many things. You can also teach him."

Jiang Ruolan smiled even brighter, "Okay, then I'll stay for dinner."

It has been a long time since their family had a meal together so harmoniously. It was obvious that Jiang Ruolan wanted to get close to Ye Ruxin. During the meal, he kept helping her pick up the food and chatted about some topics that everyone was interested in. After finishing the meal

Fan even offered to help her clean up the dishes, but Ye Ruxin felt uncomfortable seeing her being so positive and friendly.

After resting for a while, it was getting late. Lin Zian sent Jiang Ruolan downstairs, and Ye Ruxin sent them to the elevator. Although she still didn't call her mother, her attitude was already more affectionate.

There were only mother and son in the elevator. Jiang Ruolan glanced at Lin Zian and said, "Zian, are you still staying upstairs at night?"

Lin Zian said lightly "Yeah".
