Chapter 126 (On Your Knees!) Lin Wenxi Asked His Father for Help

Anyhow, Lin Ziwei was forced to return home by Lin Wenxi. He never thought that he had raised such an ungrateful son. Neither did he expected that he had such a wife who would act as absurdly as his son.

His wife, Huang Xiya, gave him an emergency call. She said that Lin Wenxi asked him to go home. Otherwise, he would kill himself. Judging by the photo taken by Huang Xiya, Lin Ziwei saw that Lin Wenxi had already cut his wrist. If the blade cut into a little bit deeper, Lin Wenxi might cut his aorta.

“Just let him continue to cut himself. If he is not responsible for his life, then who else can?” Lin Ziwei was determined to see how capable his unworthy son was! However, those uninterrupted calls from Huang Xiya greatly distracted and annoyed him. Lin Ziwei was so afraid that she would mention those sad memories again. So he had no choice but to go home in advance.

But just when Lin Ziwei came home, Lin Wenxi immediately became well-behaved. With a look of uncertainty, Huang Xiya stared at her husband. She tried to smile but did not succeed. Upon seeing that his son was safe and sound, Lin Ziwei breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he turned to look at Huang Xiya, a little angry. “You also horsed around with him!”

It was then that Huang Xiya covered her mouth with her hand and laughed. When this naughty kiddy came home, crying and screaming, he said that he wanted to see Dad. Later, he sat in front of her dressing table and picked up the love token of them. Lin Wenxi then said while smiling. “Two more days later, it is your 18th wedding anniversary.”

Huang Xiya could not think of any way to remind her busy husband of their anniversary. However, her son showed her a picture and told her what his plan was. At first, Huang Xiya felt that his idea was indeed a little ridiculous. But Lin Wenxi kept bugging her all day long. He swore to her that as long as Lin Ziwei came home, he would return school and finish his following exams so as not to lose all his credits. He also said that he suddenly missed his father a lot. Lin Wenxi bothered Huang Xiya so much, and she also missed her husband a lot, so she finally chose to play such a “sympathy-getting ploy” with her son.

Lin Wenxi sent a picture of his arm to Zhou Nannan and asked her to help him airbrush it. At that point, Zhou Nannan was composing an architectural drawing. Upon receiving Lin Wenxi’s task, she thought about how to complete the task for a long time. Together with her roommate Wang Zhengjuan, she found many pictures which she could use to make the picture Lin Wenxi wanted. Finally, she successfully made the almost real picture which Lin Wenxi showed to his father later. This picture also reminded Zhang An’an and Shu Xiaoman of the bloody eyes drew by Lin Wenxi during the cross-country training which still haunted them. When the group of girls laughed and played with each other, they began to worry about Zhao Yuan and Lin Wenxi who had taken a long leave. Busying with their work, these girls got together, and from time to time, they would also go to the hospital and visit Zheng Kai. All of them felt relieved after they saw Chen Wanxin and Gu Xi look after Zheng Kai very well.

During these days, Lin Wenxi was burning with anxiety. He wanted to visit Zhao Mingjiang in the hospital. But he also had to deal with exams in the school. In a hurry, Lin Wenxi took Shu Xiaoman’s advice. Learning from Chen Wanxin, he also found someone to take exams for him.

It was only that Lin Ziwei had never returned. And recently, Hong Xuan showed a strong determination. Wherever Lin Wenxi went, he would follow him together with several police officers. Hong Xuan had received a phone call to inform him that someone would attack Lin Wenxi. Therefore, he mobilized all his buddies of the old year and put almost all the police on duty. Hong Xuan had conducted several trials and investigations, and he even tried to extort confessions by using illegal punishment. However, he still could not find the leader who was behind all of this. Hong Xuan was very concerned about Lin Wenxi’s safety. So privately, he left a few police behind to protect the only son of Director Lin.

Lin Wenxi had waited for his father for a long time, but Lin Ziwei still didn’t appear. Thus, he could only take such an unwise sympathy-getting ploy and even cheated Huang Xiya into doing this with him. Until he finally met Lin Ziwei, Lin Wenxi abruptly knelt down. Straightening up his neck, Lin Wenxi stubbornly asked Lin Ziwei to arrange some people to the hospital to prevent Zhao Mingjiang from being killed.

Lin Ziwei became furious. He turned his head to look at Hong Xuan, who seemed quite calm at this time.

“I think we should let Wenxi know something. After all, it was Chen Tianjiao who had broken the promise first.” Hong Xuan explained, neither humble nor pushy.

“Even if he knows, what can he do? Has he figured out any solutions yet? He involved himself in first, and then, he even needs you to protect him!”

On his knees, Lin Wenxi took out the anonymous note. “Dad, even if Uncle Hong Xuan didn’t tell me, someone still wanted me to know that.”

Lin Ziwei had to drop himself into the chair. “Zhao Mingjiang, he is a murderer with incontrovertible evidence of guilt. The person who attacked him was a condemned prisoner. He was sentenced to death after he gave his statement. So, there is no witness of testimony after this conspirator passed away! According to a special permit, the prison sent guards to keep Zhao Mingjiang safe, cannot six prison guards ensure his safety?”

“Director Lin, there are only two guards. At first, all those six guards sent by the prison watched him all day long. But later, they are on duty by turns, two guards a day, ” Hong Xuan said.

“Why didn’t you report it earlier?” Lin Ziwei slammed hard on the table.

“Only after I went to the hospital did I knew this news. I had been dealing with other things before,” said Hong Xuan.

“Dealing with other things? It was only the thing that the bad son stayed in the countryside and was reluctant to go home! Look at you, Lin Wenxi, what can you do to help?” Lin Ziwei’s face turned red with anger.

“Only that man can place obstacles in our way. That is to say that he actually has already made a plan,” Hong Xuan said.

“Disaster emanates from careless talks. So before you get any evidence, don’t talk recklessly.” Lin Ziwei interrupted Hong Xuan.

“Dad! Please send someone there quickly! I know that it is inappropriate and not standard. But since Uncle Hong Xuan could mobilize so many people to protect me, he can also send people to protect Zhao Yuan’s father!” Lin Wenxi begged in a trembling voice.

Lin Ziwei wanted to say something, but finally, he just waved his hand wearily.

“Wenxi, sending some people to protect you is something private. But, sending people to guard a murderer openly will be an eye-catching public affair! Your family is not like the Chen family who can rely on a criminal gang, the situation of which is entirely unclear. However, the forces that your father relies on are his previous subordinates who are all officials of a certain status! A slight move in one part may affect the situation as a whole. If we do something inappropriate, some of our enemies might make a fuss about that. Then, not only your father’s previous subordinates will all be exposed, but your father will also experience a great crisis. Do you know the seriousness of this matter?” Hong Xuan could not help explaining.

“Why do you tell him those things?” Lin Ziwei squeezed his fist.

“Dad, there must be a way, right? You can regard Uncle Zhao as me. To protect me, you can let Uncle Hong Xuan use the police force, so there must be something you can do to help Uncle Zhao, am I right? I don’t want Uncle Hong Xuan and the guards to follow me. Send them all to Uncle Zhao, is that all right? Uncle Zhao is innocent. And Zhao Yuan, he, he is very pitiful!” Lin Wenxi moved forward on his knees. Tears streaming down from his checks, he kept shaking Lin Ziwei’s legs.

“Wenxi, don’t associate with Zhao Yuan anymore. Zhao Yuan, in fact, Zhao Yuan is not a good person.” Huang Xiya could not help frowning and sighing.

“If he is not a good person, then who else can be a good person? Mom, don’t stab in my heart again! A Yuan and I, we are just like brothers. He is my flesh and blood. He is my only brother in my life...” Lin Wenxi said tearfully.

“Stay there on your knees!” With this, Lin Ziwei walked out into the darkness with his briefcase. And he said, “Hong Xuan, keep an eye on him.”

Not long after Lin Ziwei went out, someone knocked at the door. Hong Xuan looked through the peephole and found that it was Zhao Yuan.
