After Ouyang Jin was taken to the hospital, Xie Jing prayed to God for the first time. If there was such a thing as "extended life", then he would be willing to use a little bit of his life in exchange for his biological father to open his eyes.

Because he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, people from the Ouyang family appeared in front of him with ferocious faces, accusing him of angering his father to death.

It was already May and the weather was very warm, but Xie Jing was still wrapped in a thick quilt. Only in that way could he feel safe. He did not dare to go to the world outside the quilt.

Xie Jing was absent from school for a day. At night, he was so hungry that he went to the kitchen to find something to eat. Ouyang Hui happened to be back from school. She did not blame Xie Jing and greeted him as usual.

Xie Jing was very worried: "Sister, how is dad now?"

"I heard from mom that the person has regained consciousness. Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Xie Jing nodded.

"Let's go." Ouyang Hui said handsomely: "I'll call the driver."

They all have the right to control the driver, but Xie Jing does not.

Speaking of which, Xie Jing doesn't even have a mobile phone. His family members say that he is too young to bring his mobile phone to school. But this argument is full of loopholes. Before going to school, shouldn't Xie Jing just hand over his mobile phone to his family? They are just making excuses.

, just to prevent him from contacting the outside world.

It doesn't matter, Xie Jing doesn't care. His goal now is very clear, that is to get more money, and then escape back to Xie's family and live a good life with his adoptive parents.

On the way to the hospital, Ouyang Hui looked at the scenery outside the window and made an appointment with Xie Jing. When her father was in danger, she would take him out shopping.

Since Xie Jing entered this family, he goes to school on weekdays, attends interest classes on holidays, and stays at home the rest of the time. No one takes him to socialize or go shopping. He has been at his biological father's house for so long that even the most famous family in Shanghai

I have never been to the Oriental Pearl Tower.

Xie Jing suddenly realized that whether intentionally or unintentionally, he had been imprisoned at home.

"elder sister……"

Ouyang Hui was a little strange: "What's the matter?"

"Why doesn't anyone show me around?"

Ouyang Hui was in a panic and kept arranging her hair: "My brother and I are not familiar with you. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to take you out?"

However, isn’t shopping a good opportunity to get closer?

Xie Jing did not expose her, but said blankly: "Well, you often attend banquets, but you never called me."

Ouyang Hui was a little annoyed: "Max, everyone has their own social circle, you can't force this."

"I think I'm too bad to be on the stage."

"Xie Jing!" Ouyang Hui became angry: "Everyone is equal, and we have never looked down on you."

Xie Jing looked out the window and smiled softly.

There were many people in the hospital. Ouyang Jin lived in the special care ward. No one cared about Xie Jing. No one thought that Xie Jing was qualified to enter the ward to visit. Except for Mrs. Yao, who pretended to be calm, almost everyone else rolled their eyes at Xie Jing and remained silent.

The ground drove him away - who are you to dare to come here to join in the fun? Go, go, stay here!

Xie Jing learned his arrogance from Xie Chong. He has suffered enough neglect and he will not endure it any longer.

When others went in to visit, Xie Jing got in deftly. At the same time, his eyes were fierce enough, and he would not tolerate any more needlessly.

But when he arrived at his father's hospital bed, he was extremely well-behaved and burst into tears at the drop of a hat: "Dad, wake up, I just reunited with you, you can't just leave like this!"

Regardless of whether Ouyang Jin responded or not, Xie Jing continued to act: "Dad, I'm calling you dad now. If you hear it, just open your eyes, okay?"

Ouyang Jin really struggled to open his eyes.

Xie Jing was very surprised: "Dad, don't you like to hear me sing the most? I'll sing it to you! Who should sing "Lu Binghua" first, or "Yesterday Again"?..."

As long as you are brave enough, you will be invincible. Xie Jing suddenly became the most filial child.

A sister pulled Xie Jing away and mocked: "You don't know your identity? Why are you pretending to be a filial son here? How dare you cry here and disturb my father's peace?..."

"I am also my father's child, why can't I be here?"

The corner of my sister's mouth was raised to the sky: "Oh my god, how can there be a child like you who doesn't know how to behave! In this family, you are just a mascot at most! Apart from being there to look good, what is your use?"

For a child, these words are too devastating.

Xie Jing replied wittily: "The mascot of China is the panda, and the panda is a national treasure. So, does it count as a treasure when I am at home?"

My sister couldn't answer, so she could only express her anger by gritting her teeth.

Xie Jing faced his father and laughed at himself: "I thought I was a burden in this family and no one liked me. It turns out that I am a mascot! I am not that miserable."

Ouyang Jin closed his eyes tiredly. He didn't want to see the children quarreling.

After leaving the ward, except for the eldest brother Ouyang, several other brothers and sisters surrounded Xie Jing, accusing him of messing up and making outsiders laugh.

Xie Jing asked, "Are you ashamed?"

…

Xie Jing continued to ask: "Why do you feel embarrassed? If you all hate me, then tell dad and ask him to send me back."

"Now that things have happened, I might as well tell you." The same sarcastic sister said: "We don't welcome you. It was your father who insisted on bringing you back, saying that your horoscope is very suitable for this family. If you stay here, the people will be prosperous.

, wealth is also prosperous.”

Thinking of the life that may have passed away, Xie Jing felt sad for himself. He suppressed his sadness and said: "In other words, use my life to extend my father's life?"

"If you think so, there's nothing wrong with it."

Mrs. Yao winked, and the sister said nothing more.

Xie Jing said seriously: "You are engaging in feudal superstition."

Several people burst out laughing.

Xie Jing pretended to be naive: "Is it really useful for you to do this? Did you find a mage with high magic power?"

Ouyang Hui looked at Xie Jing sympathetically and deeply regretted that he was being taken advantage of: "Max, our family often practices rituals, there must be some experts we know!"

"So that's it!" Xie Jing pretended to suddenly realize: "I thought I was eating and drinking at home, but it turns out that I have been being used by you."

Several adults deliberately pretended to clear their throats.

Xie Jing said: "In this case, I won't be polite to you anymore. I'll help you prolong your lives and help you make money, so you have to show some respect, right?"

Several adults laughed again.

In Xie Jing's opinion, these people are emotionally unstable.

It was the same sarcastic sister who said, "It's so much better for you to eat, drink and live in my house for free than to live in that shabby slum. Aren't you satisfied?"

"The Xie family is not a slum!" Xie Jing stamped his feet and said, "You are too arrogant! Are those who are not as good as you poor?"

"I'm sorry, I don't care if it's a slum or not. Anyway, I will never interact with them in this life."

Xie Jing was as calm as a nine-year-old child: "I'm going to the police station to report the crime. You leaving me here is considered murder."

…

Another burst of ridicule filled the air.

Mrs. Yao said: "Max, people should know how to be content. Our family has given you a lot, so you can't be greedy. You should not threaten us by calling the police."

"I'm not threatening, I really want to call the police. You don't take my life seriously, but I do! If I want to survive, I have to find a way!" Xie Jing said seriously: "What I just said

I have recorded all these words."

Everyone was shocked.

Xie Jing said: "From today on, I will not go home again. I have room and board in the hospital. Don't grab my tape recorder. I have practiced martial arts. You can't beat me. If you don't believe me, try it. If you

If you are sincere enough, then I will consider it again."

…

Several scheming people, who racked their brains to fight for inheritance, were actually tricked by this kid.

Xie Jing kept his promise, and he really didn't go home or go to school. He made up his mind to wait until his father passed away, and then he would return to Rulin Street immediately.

In this way, Xie Jing obtained several more treasures. Moreover, he cleverly asked Mrs. Yao and others to sign a note to show that they were given to him and not stolen by him.

For the first time, Mrs. Yao and others have a common target to deal with, and that is Xie Jing. This child who is not yet nine years old has become a spirit. How does he manage to be both smart and cautious?

When Xie Jing went to the toilet, he deliberately left his Walkman outside the ward. When he came back, the old Walkman had been taken away. Xie Jing did not panic at all, but felt a sense of pleasure that the prank was successful. Because

He didn't record anything at all, and Mrs. Yao and the others couldn't get any information from the Walkman. They would be furious, but they didn't dare to take it lightly - what if Xie Jing had a voice recorder?

This hateful child disturbed their peace.

On May 31, 2002, the day before Children's Day, Ouyang Jin passed away.

Xie Jing didn't care much about the will he made. He only knew that all his family members were at the hospital and he could secretly go home and take away his mother's belongings.

Xie Jing didn't take any luggage, only a bag of gold, silver and jewelry. Although the jewelry belonged to him, he still had a sense of urgency like a thief. He didn't dare to stay at home for long. After packing,

He hurried back to the hospital.

He had to accompany Ouyang's family to complete this scene. He was still the filial and sensible young son, and he had to shed enough tears for his father.

After the funeral, Xie Jing ran away quickly without saying goodbye to anyone. Ouyang caught up with him and asked, "Are you going back to Xie's house?"

"Yeah." Xie Jing hugged her schoolbag tightly, absentmindedly.
