deep white secret

Chapter 103 Soft Violence

Gu Youmei was immersed in sadness and didn't speak for a long time.

Ningxia's mother also raised her by herself, but her mother Yang Meilan has always been very strong. Ningxia has always felt that life should be like her mother's with or without a man.

Be strong, have a smile on your face, have love, and be full of hope for life.

Ningxia feels that she and her mother are very happy, and her outlook on life is also very healthy.

Now Ningxia knows that not everyone will have the courage to face changes in life.

After Gu Youmei finished talking about this, she walked into the bedroom and took out a file bag.

"Police officer, this is the evidence I collected when Hu Siyang cheated on her. It is because of these things that the house and the peach belong to me. Do you know? In order to get a divorce, Hu Siyang tried every means."

Gu Youmei laughed at herself:

"It was only after I got divorced that I realized that Hu Siyang went to this extent to get a divorce. After he had the idea of ​​​​divorce, he kept violently bullying me."

"Soft violence?"

"It's ridiculous. Because of ignorance, I didn't realize that there is such a way to abandon my wife after the divorce."

Gu Youmei's face showed sadness:
"I feel that Hu Siyang has changed because he always picked on me during that time. After Taotao was born, my energy was all on the family. Before Hu Siyang would say a lot of heart-warming words, but during that time, he made me feel Very useless.”

Ningxia somewhat understood.

"The vegetables are salty, the clothes are not washed, they are slovenly, they have gained weight, and there are many wrinkles on their faces. Many of these things, kept saying, make people feel very bad."

"What does Hu Siyang mean by doing this?"

"He wants me to file for divorce, but how is that possible? Even if I can't stand him, I won't leave him. I can't live without him."

Gu Youmei was very helpless.

"For a long time, I would only cry when Hu Siyang was not at home, but crying could not solve the problem. Hu Siyang did not come home more and more often."

Ningxia looked at Gu Youmei. This kind of mental suppression still had an impact on Gu Youmei. Ningxia couldn't tell, but there was always an inferiority complex in Gu Youmei's eyes that she couldn't get rid of.

After learning about the past of Gu Youmei and Hu Siyang, Ningxia wants to know the status of the two people today:
"Where's the house now? How far have you negotiated?"

"Taotao went to find Xu Dan. If I guessed correctly, it was because of the house. Now that Taotao is older, she has her own ideas. She wants to protect me."

Ningxia understands Hu Jiatao's feelings, just like she does to her mother Yang Meilan. After her daughter feels powerful, she wants to protect the most important woman in her life behind her.

Gu Youmei saw that Ning Xia was thoughtful and continued:

"Officer, Taotao will never kill Xu Dan, you can rest assured."

"Well, I came here to learn about your relationship with Xu Dan. Although Hu Jiatao appeared at the scene of the crime, she is not suspected. We have eliminated this."

"That's great. This is the relationship between Xu Dan, me, and Hu Siyang. I've already said everything."

When Ning Xia walked out of Gu Youmei's house, she still felt heavy pain in her heart. Ning Xia sympathized with Gu Youmei very much. This was a feeling she had never felt before during the investigation of the case.

Gu Youmei is very pitiful.

This was Ningxia's only experience after talking to Gu Youmei today, so when she talked about this with Xu Jie in the evening, Ningxia still couldn't help herself.

"Are you sympathetic to Gu Youmei, or are you angry at Hu Siyang for committing soft violence in marriage?"

Xu Jie asked while washing vegetables.

Ningxia thinks carefully:

"They all seem to be there. Although I think Hu Siyang is ruthless, I am also worried about Gu Youmei's failure to cheer up."

"Not everyone in Ningxia will be strong. Growth background, outlook on life, education level, all of these are factors that determine a person's choice."

"If Gu Youmei hadn't given up on herself, wouldn't she be better off now?"

"Who can say this kind of thing clearly? There are many families with happy marriages, and there are also very happy women who stay at home. What do you say about this?"

"Indeed, children growing up in single-parent families are not the same."

Ningxia thought of herself and her mother.

Xu Jie was washing the vegetables and putting them on the cutting board. Ningxia suddenly looked at Xu Jie and said:
"Captain Xu, I have been living with my mother, but my mother is amazing."

This was the first time Ningxia talked about his family. Xu Jie put down what he was holding and looked back at Ningxia.

"No, I'm not that kind. My dad was a policeman, but he died."

Xu Jie's heart was in turmoil.

"Yes, Dad left home when I was nine, he was an undercover cop, a drug hero, but I didn't know it until my sophomore year in high school."

Ning Xia shed tears, and Xu Jie reached out to hug her.

Ningxia raised a hand, wiped her tears and stopped with a smile:

"No, I have always wanted to tell Captain Xu these things, but I couldn't. Because my ignorance has misunderstood my father for many years, this is a thorn in my heart."

Xu Jie listened carefully.

"When my father left home, only my mother knew about it. My mother pretended that nothing happened in front of me, but I heard her crying at night."

"So I thought my father had failed us and abandoned us. It wasn't until I was in the third year of junior high that I learned that my father had died. He was a policeman."

"I was the kind of child who kept things in his heart, so I never asked my mother, where is my father? I always thought that would make my mother more sad."

Speaking of this, Ningxia shook her head with tears in her eyes:
"Later I also asked my mother, and my mother told me that even if I asked back then, she would not tell me the truth. That's it. I misunderstood my father for many years."

"Dad has always kept his name anonymous in order to protect us. Only now do I know how much he missed my mother and me during those difficult and dangerous days."

"Because the case my father was involved in was a major one, the truth of the case was not revealed until I was in my second year of high school. My father is a hero because he captured the most rampant drug dealer at the time."

"But in order to protect my mother and me, my father did not mention us on his medal. Even in the honorary commendation, my father only had his name but no photo."

Ning Xia burst into tears. This was the first time Ning Xia told others about this incident. Once the gate in her heart was opened, sadness poured out.

Ningxia couldn't explain that feeling. Her father was a hero, but he was the missing person in Ningxia's life.

"I have never enjoyed going to an amusement park as a family, and I don't know what it feels like for my father to pick me up after school. On the day I went to college, my mother had surgery, and I went to the police academy to report alone."

Xu Jie's eyes were red.

"This is how I grew up, but now I feel I am very happy."

Xu Jie's voice was hoarse and he walked towards Ningxia:
"It is unsung heroes like your father who protect thousands of families and have the peace we have today. This is our duty and honor as police officers."

Ningxia covered her eyes with a tissue:
"That's why I want to be a police officer."

Ningxia burst into tears and turned into a smile:

"So when I was a sophomore in high school, I decided to take the police academy and become a criminal police officer to catch all the criminals. I thought this would bring me closer to my father. She is his daughter. The reason why I didn't become a drug police officer was because I was afraid that my mother would collapse."

Xu Jie opened his arms, and Ningxia threw herself into Xu Jie's arms.

"This is the first time I've told others about this. It's not easy for my mother, so my dream has always been to take good care of my mother."

Xu Jie hugged Ning Xia tightly, feeling sour in his heart.

Ningxia huddled in Xu Jie's arms. Xu Jie's arms were generous and stable, with the warmth she had expected since childhood. Ningxia gently rubbed her cheeks and slowly closed her eyes.

"Captain Xu, thank you, I am very happy now."

"Ah."

Xu Jie once again locked Ning Xia tightly, pressing his chin against Ning Xia's hair.

"Ningxia, you will have me from now on. I can't make up for the lost past, but I will always be there in the future..."
