Chapter 63: The Culprit Behind the Car Accident

  "Gu Mei Shan, no matter how much you regret the past or apologize for it, it's still just the past. We can't build a time machine or eat regret medicine, so don't worry too much about it. All these years, you've been taking care of my sister and Nono, and I'm really grateful for that." Lu Ling Feng said with a faint smile, knowing Gu Mei Shan's guilt.

  "I'm just making up for the harm our Gu family has caused you." Gu Meisan's eyes grew hot.

  "Ingratitude has its source, debts have their owners. You don't owe us anything. Besides, we're all living well now. My sister said that if you hadn't died once and for all, you wouldn't be able to live a brand new life. We can also say that we've been reborn from the ashes!" Lu Lingfeng leaned back on the sofa, smiling and saying.

  "Do you hate Mei Ting?" Guan Mei Shan was very grateful to Lu Ling Feng.

  "No need, she has her own choices. Besides, hating her doesn't bring me any benefits." Lu Lingfeng replied without hesitation.

  "Thank you." Gu Mei Shan picked up her bag and left.

  "Xin Xin, I really don't understand why you're so angry with a little girl like that!" A young man looked at Wu Xin Xin in front of him, who was visibly upset.

  "Cousin, you have no idea how despicable Mò Xiǎo Xiǎo is! She bullied me, that's fine, but she actually dared to bully my sister too! This time I hurt her just to let her know the consequences of offending me. If she admits her mistake and behaves, then it's over, but if she still acts arrogant, I'll make her wish she were dead! Cousin, you should have hit her harder at that time!" Wu Xīn Xīn gripped her fork tightly, stabbing at the steak as if it were Mò Xiǎo Xiǎo, determined to tear it apart.

  "Alright, I've taught this person a lesson for you all. Your anger should be gone by now! Come on, let's eat well and forget about the unpleasant things!" said older cousin with a smile.

  It's obvious that the one who knocked Mo Xiao Xiao off her bike is this young master.

  "There's someone else bullying me!" Wu Xinxin pouted her small mouth, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

  "Xue Zhixiang, I wouldn't dare to move him. If he bullies you, at most I'll just send a few people to tie him up and bring him in front of you." said the elder brother jokingly.

  "What's wrong with you!" Wu Xinxin seemed to be shy, her face actually turned red!

  "It's hard for a good official to settle family affairs." Brother Tai was eating his steak with relish, ignoring Wu Xinxin's embarrassment.

  "Seriously, it's Xia Xuan and Mo Xiao Xiao who are in cahoots with each other. They treated my sister like that back then, and now they're bullying me too." Wu Xin Xin said with a gloomy face.

  The brother-in-law's knife for cutting steak paused, he raised his head and looked at Wu Xinxin with a serious expression, making Wu Xinxin feel a chill run down her spine.

  "That year, your sister hurt people's families enough. Xinxin, we do things with a sense of measure. Jiajia was despicable when she broke up with Jiang Buzhe back then. If you still have some conscience, it's best not to touch Xia Xian. Otherwise, I won't help you either, take care of yourselves." The uncle threw down the knife and fork and left.

  Wu Xinxin was furious and had an urge to go crazy, how could even her brother-in-law side with this little scoundrel!

  The elder brother left the restaurant in a state of anxiety and confusion. In all these years, if Jiang Jie had been living with guilt, then he was also tormented by his conscience.

  After Xia Xian's car accident, she was in a coma for three months. He went to visit her every day and witnessed all the misfortunes of the Xia family with his own eyes. He saw Xia Xian's helplessness and despair with his own eyes. He saw the pain of Xia Ri losing her child with his own eyes. And the one who caused all this was not only Jiang Jie, but also Wu Jiajia, and even himself, the murderer.

  That's right, he was the one who injured Xia Xian. At that time, relying on his mother and uncle's means, he did not get punished, but only gave the Xia family a considerable compensation, nothing more.

  At that time, he was single-mindedly avenging his own sister, but did not think that the real victim was Xia Xuan. Without a doubt, he ruined Xia Xuan's whole life.

  The sun was shining brightly, with not a cloud in the sky. It seemed that these two words were used to describe the weather of that day, but what truly purified his soul was Xia Xian's words.

  "Mr. Han, you come to the hospital every day to see me, I don't understand what it means." Xia Xuan sat in a wheelchair, basking in the warm sunshine in the hospital garden, his face pale but still with a bright and sunny smile.

  "Let's just end this as friends." Han Yueming said stiffly with a smile.

  "Sorry, I don't remember anyone. It's been so long that I've already forgotten when we met. Please don't mind." Xia Xian responded with an apologetic smile.

  "No big deal. Do you think amnesia is good or bad for you?" Han Yueming asked.

  "There's no practical significance. Many times, we need to leave some space for our own lives, leaving some buffer room, so that we can adjust ourselves at any time and have a clear direction. The space of life needs to be borrowed from cleaning up; the space of the soul needs to be expanded through thinking. I think my past should be these gaps! Since it was reserved for me, there's no regret, nor can it be said to be good or bad." Xia Xuan had a smile that seemed to see through the world, which made Han Yuming feel complicated emotions.

  "Aren't you curious about your past?" Han Yueming asked immediately.

  "It's not strange, because I know that if I were to face those choices and forks in the road again now, I would still give the same answers. So my current personality is just my past personality." Xia Xian remained as calm and unruffled as ever.

  "If the person who once hurt you begged for your forgiveness, would you forgive?" Han Yueming's heart suddenly tightened, and a look of urgency appeared on his face. Xia Xian's next words meant that his conscience could be pardoned or not.

  "Actually, whether or not to forgive is not up to me, but the other person. Even if I don't forgive, they've already convinced themselves that what they did was right and that I've forgiven them, so there's no use saying anything. But on the other hand, if I do forgive, they still won't be able to let go and will blame themselves for the rest of their lives - it all depends on the individual. As for past events, I've already forgotten about them, so it doesn't matter whether or not I forgive - it's all just empty words anyway." Xia Xian smiled faintly and beckoned the nurse to push her back to her hospital room.

  "Don't be sad about small grievances, learn to tolerate and forgive the people around you, and grow up in tolerance. We only have lasting passion for things we like, and at that moment, we are extremely happy. Spending energy hating someone proves that we still care, but the only one who gets hurt is ourselves. Sometimes, completely forgetting and being indifferent is the best revenge." Xia Xian said calmly.

  A girl who once had her life hanging by a thread said such touching and heartfelt words to the perpetrator who hurt her. Han Yueming not being moved, shocked, remorseful or guilty is impossible. But what face does he have left to meet this innocent girl?

  Xia Xuan, sorry!

  Facing Xia Xuan's gradually disappearing back, Han Yueming bowed deeply and didn't straighten up for a long time, because Xia Xuan's tall stature had pressed him down so that he couldn't stand up straight.

  Unexpectedly, until today, I still have no intention of repenting.

  Han Yueming forced a smile, his heart heavy with guilt and pain.

  It's time to visit Mo Xiao Xiao. Perhaps being honest will make him feel a little better. He has been tormented by his conscience for so long, and he doesn't want to go wrong again.

  However, Han Yueming, didn't you think of showing mercy when you were doing this thing in the first place? What's the use of being clever afterwards?

  In fact, when he rode his bike into Mo Xiao Xiao, he already had a pang of guilt. Xia Xian's fall that day was still fresh in his mind, so Mo Xiao Xiao wasn't actually hurt that badly at the time. Compared to Xia Xian, it could even be considered a light injury.
