Chapter 30

After Cao Gang drank the warm honey water, his head seemed to be much clearer, and his eyes, hands and feet began to move.

Yao Xin's eyes fell on the collar of Cao Gang's denim jacket.There is a clear lipstick mark on the light blue triangle collar.

"Didn't you say that you went to the boss to talk about the resumption of the project today? Where did you go to talk?" Yao Xin waved away the arm in front of him that wanted to take her and hid far away.

She just got closer and saw the lipstick mark and smelled the perfume on Cao Gang's body that was masked by the alcohol.

She shared the joys and sorrows with Cao Gang, leaving her hometown to work hard in other places.She ignored the other party's domestic violence and even cheated on her.I had previously thought of talking nicely to Cao Gang about divorce, but it seems that I can now file for divorce.

Cao Gang, still barefoot, chased after him and blocked Yao Xin in the corner of the door.He glared fiercely and asked Yao Xin: "What's that look in your eyes? What's wrong with me eating and singing with the leader? Do you think it's so easy to make money?"

Yao Xin looked at the long, curving black hair that was slightly dangling on the first button of the denim jacket in front of him, snorted and said nothing.

Her attitude angered Cao Gang, who unbuttoned his denim jacket and threw it to the ground, then clasped Yao Xin's chin hard. "You are my legal wife who paid for the certificate. It is your responsibility to serve me, and you still want to resist."

Yao Xin has long known the gap between the strength of men and women. When she was beaten, she resisted and tried to escape many times, but failed.Later, she gave up struggling.

But this time it's different.She had a strong desire not to let this dirty man touch her.

She stamped Cao Gang's bare instep with her slippered feet, pushed it with her knees, pushed it with her hands, and bit it with her teeth.

Her hands were tied behind her back, her face was pressed against the cool floor, and in front of her eyes were small cards scattered from her denim jacket.On the card, a wavy beauty is wearing a black lace underwear and smiling, and the phone numbers in red font are arranged neatly.

When the clothes on her body almost matched the fabric on the card, she suppressed the turmoil in her stomach and forgot about the sleeping child in the crib.She screamed: "Don't touch me, don't touch me with your dirty hands."

The sound of the child crying loudly, the muffled sound of thumping, the crisp slaps accompanied by the insults, all were intertwined in the small bedroom.

Yao Xin didn't know how many punches and kicks he received, and how many slaps he received on his face.She was hunched over like a cooked shrimp, secretly feeling happy.

She hurt, all over her body, everywhere.It hurts from the bones to the heart.She remained motionless, listening to Xiaoliang's loud cries, and she told herself to endure it some more.

Xiaoliang's cry disappeared, and she suddenly raised her head to look with all her strength.

In the crib, the chubby Xiaoliang turned over and lay on the pillow, his mouth and nose blocked.

"Little grains." At that moment, she was full of strength.Get up from the ground as fast as possible, rush to the crib and hold Xiao Liang in his arms.

Xiaoliang took a breath and did not continue to cry. Instead, he stared at Yao Xin's face with his big round eyes.

Yao Xin endured the burning and sore feeling in his cheeks and smiled. "Xiaoliang, you can stand up, you can stand up."

When Xiaoliang saw Yao Xin smiling, he grinned too, his saliva dripping down, but his giggles stopped abruptly.

Yao Xin's arms were empty, and what he saw was Cao Gang holding a cigarette in his armpit. "What are you doing?" Yao Xin reached out to hug the child, but Cao Gang dodged it.

Cao Gang took a sip of the cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth and said angrily: "You usually don't smile at me, but you smile at this little brat. I often live away from home. Is this little brat my son?"

Yao Xin couldn't believe what he heard.

How could there be such a shameless person in the world who would do dirty things outside and then when he got home, he would dump the shit basin on someone else.While she was immersed in the joy that the child would turn over, what was the child's father doing?
Yao Xin didn't even bother to explain and argue with Cao Gang about this kind of thing.

She took two steps forward to grab the child, but the child caught in her armpit was already hanging upside down with a red face.

"Give me the baby back."

"Why are you so anxious? Are you feeling guilty because I told you the truth?"

"Cao Gang, the child is hypoxic. You can't hold him between your arms like this and give the child to me."

Everywhere she had been punched and kicked was dull pain consuming her strength and energy. Yao Xin gritted her teeth and endured it, with only one thought: to save the red-faced child.

The windows clanged louder and the wind grew louder.

Yao Xin rushed forward for the third time, but was easily pushed down by Cao Gang again and fell to the floor with just one arm.

Cao Gang looked down at her and said with distorted features: "I will take this little kid to the hospital for a blood test now. If he is not my son, I will kill you when he comes back."

Looking from Yao Xin's perspective, Xiaoliang's face had begun to turn purple.After a long period of reverse control, the child has been deprived of oxygen and unable to breathe, and will soon die.Although she knew that explanations were redundant, she could no longer remain silent.

"Cao Gang, Xiaoliang is your son. Didn't you see that his face is purple? Let him go, let him go." Yao Xin went to hug Cao Gang's legs, she cried and begged, she screamed.

The cigarette that was about to burn out at the corner of his mouth was spat out on the ground, and Cao Gang crushed it with the sole of his shoe.The voice was harsh and cold: "If he is really my son, why do you feel guilty and why are you trying to stop me? Don't think that I don't know that you haven't looked down on me after living with me all these years."

"I can't enter the house with my shoes on, and I can't lie on the bed with my clothes on. Even if I go to the toilet to pee, you have to force me to do it. Tell me, have you always looked down on me?"

Yao Xin knelt on the ground, used both hands to support the child, and held the child's head up to keep it level.She was sobbing and shaking: "I'm not looking down on you. When you came back from the construction site, you were covered in either lime or paint. I wiped the floor every day. The sheets and quilts were not just for the two of us, Xiaoying also slept on them."

But Cao Gang seemed to be ignited by these words. He kicked her away and yelled: "Fart. If you really cared about the child we had, you wouldn't always pretend to be asleep and avoid me and exclude me." Do you think I can’t feel your disgust for me? People outside know how to be obedient and smile when I give you money. I’ve given all the money I earned to you. Have you ever smiled at me?”

"Cao Gang, that's enough." Yao Xin got up, his eyes red. "You went crazy and made trouble tonight, wasn't it just because I found you messing around outside? You are so proud of your face that you started to unreasonably doubt me and Xiaoliang. Okay, aren't you going to have a blood test? Tomorrow I and I You go to the hospital to get tested. No matter what the result is, I will divorce you."

She went to grab the child again, but before her hand could touch the child's hair, the child flew out in a parabola in front of her eyes.

She only had time to let out a scream before she instinctively rushed out to catch the falling child.

The direction in which Cao Gang threw the child was the wall on the other side of the double bed.Yao Xin jumped to the foot of the bed, hit his leg and fell to the ground. He watched helplessly as the child's head hit the hard cement wall and then fell to the wooden floor.

This time, she couldn't even make a sound.

The little child was lying on his back, the purple color on his face seemed to be slowly fading.

Yao Xin's world suddenly became quiet. Cao Gang's scolding, the tinkling of the windows, and the sound of her heartbeat were all gone.

She didn't even dare to climb over. She was afraid that the purple color would fade away and turn pale.

She was afraid that the child's heartbeat would disappear.
