This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Time flies! It has been twenty years! Now everything between us is over. Educating an outstanding son for me, plus your life can make up for my hatred toward you for taking my woman away!
“When I fell in love with Huang Xiya, she was only seventeen. I had been courting her for seven years! When I was twenty-seven, she finally agreed to marry me.
“We used to be brothers! We went to school together, went back home together, ate together, and we even wore the same trousers! When we were sixteen, we joined the army together. After that, we tempered ourselves in the army together. Because we forged ahead with determination, both of us were promoted and given loyal subordinates…
“After retiring from the army, from a delivery man you became a clerk, while from a communications technician I became an official staff member of a state-owned enterprise.
“Later, we both became members of government offices. Although we had different politics, we were still sincere toward each other and never cheated on each other in dark officialdom. I thought in such a harsh environment, at least I had a brother to clean up the dirty water of officialdom with me.
“We shared the same ideals, but we did things in different ways. I admit that I wasn’t as smart and capable as you were. That was why you always got promoted faster than I did, but I didn’t admire or envy you at all. I even kind of adored you for your composure. You could always solve problems by surprise inadvertently. You loved the masses and treated them as your own children. Although you were young, even your elders called you ‘Brother Wei.’ You were both virtuous and disinterested, and enjoyed a good reputation among the officials!
“As your brother, I had always been proud of you.
“But you also admired me because I also had something you liked but couldn’t get.
“Everyone knew that I had a pretty, gentle, and adorable girlfriend. Since we didn’t work in the same town, I had been trying to transfer her job. I looked forward to when we would work in the same town and my unit would allocate me an apartment. I would be able to afford the betrothal gifts and marry the one-in-a-hundred talented woman rightfully. Her parents were snobs, and in order to marry her, I put in great effort. In those seven years, I missed her so much whenever I couldn’t see her. I, Chen Tianjiao, only loved Xiya in my life. If it wasn’t for my parents and the work, I wouldn’t have married my current wife, Deng Yifei. She loves me, but I have never loved her!
“On my way to purchase materials for the army, I passed by a bookstore. The first time I saw her there, I was deeply attracted to her.
“It wasn’t enough to describe her as ‘stunningly beautiful’, because she was not only beautiful but also a well-known talented woman who could write beautiful poetry and articles as well. I regarded myself as a literary young man, but compared to her, I was nothing at all. You were only a rough man, how could you be worthy of her? I was so lucky to have met her and won her heart.
“In those seven years, Xiya and I didn’t have much time to be together. I didn’t know that you had written many letters to her during that period. You spent all your salary and subsidies in a year on writing letters! Xiya loved me and she had never written back to you. If someone else hadn’t mentioned it to me, I wouldn’t have believed that the moment you saw Xiya’s photo, you fell in love with her!
“Even when I found out about it, I wasn’t mad at you. The love of beauty is universal. There were few women as outstanding as Xiya, so it was no wonder that many men wanted to get her. I wanted to give you a chance to fairly compete with me. I neither asked you about it nor mentioned it to Xiya. If Xiya chose you, I might get myself drunk for a few days, but after waking up, I would still wish you happiness, and treat you like my best friend! I, Chen Tianjiao, could be that frank and aboveboard. But what did you do to me, Lin Ziwei?
“You knew that Deng Yifei of our village loved me, so you resorted to fraud. You slipped pills into my drink, took away Xiya, who was sleeping by my side, and got Deng Yifei into my bed. After that night, we conceived my daughter, Chen Wanxin… Under my parents’ compulsion, I had to marry Deng Yifei. But Xiya believed that I was innocent. After one year’s effort, I divorced Deng Yifei and left her and my daughter. Xiya still agreed to marry me.
“Twenty years ago, Xiya was about to marry me when you came up with a venomous scheme again! You found several pregnant women and asked them to accuse me that I was the father of the babies in their bellies! Moreover, you even found several girls and asked them to accuse me that they were all my former girlfriends.
“I couldn’t explain those clearly. Later, I was put into jail for half a year because someone accused me. Without you, these wouldn’t have happened!
“When my grievances had been cleared, none of those women were willing to betray you. They only said that they had wanted to marry me, so they came up with such a bad idea! Ridiculous! Lin Ziwei, it was so ridiculous!
“When I was released from jail, you had married Xiya! And Xiya was already pregnant!
“Do you know how sad and ashamed I was when I saw your wedding pictures? It was her most beautiful moment with a wreath on her head and her beautiful long hair flying in the breeze. However, she wasn’t by my side at the moment. Was the smile on her face genuine? I could feel the reluctance and helplessness in it!
“Everyone thought us a perfect couple. I would have wanted to go through thick and thin with her! The two of us made a promise at the source of the Wenxi River of another county that we would never part. You thought yourself a man of magnanimity, but you should know that the dirtiest thing you have done in your life was to take your brother’s wife away!”
Chen Tianjiao’s heart throbbed. Lin Wenxi’s eyes and eyebrows looked a little like Huang Xiya’s. “Maybe only I and Xiya could give birth to such a good-looking and charming child. I had seen Wenxi a long time ago, but I didn’t think that he was my son. I thought Xiya had given him the name of ‘Wenxi’ only in memory of our past. I had never thought that he was our son!
“After getting married, you had a beautiful wife and a good-looking son. You had a successful official career and you became a division leader. In order to catch up with you, I chose a different path. I made mistakes all the time. I know that even if I did good deeds for the rest of my life, I couldn’t make up for what I did! But why did I end up like this? It’s all because of you! You kept me down all the time and wanted to get rid of me. You never expected that you would offend so many senior officials while investigating the old case. So you should be blamed for your own death! No matter how capable, a deputy secretary is only a fish. How can it win a fight against a steel net?
“Whether you’ll hate me or feel regret in the netherworld, you should bless your son to lead a happy life. I won’t let him know the other side of our family, and I won’t let him have anything to do with Moshi. Since my daughter has gotten involved in those businesses, I have to let her continue on this path. As for the son of Xiya and me, I will make sure he will be safe and healthy. And he will have his own career. Let’s wait and see. I’m responsible for the rest of Wenxi’s life.”
The news of the return of Chen Tianjiao’s son spread throughout the whole clan. Lin Wenxi was only nineteen years old, and he was a student at the university, so all the clan powers tried to approach him. Chen Wanxin’s mother, Deng Yifei, flattered her stepson by all means. However, what troubled her was that her daughter, Chen Wanxin, did not like her younger brother.
The news that Lin Wenxi was her brother came to Chen Wanxin like a bolt from the blue!
