Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1629 7 Heart Tablets 10

Among those present, Huo Zihong or Li Yaqing was the most direct victim of the Xinjian incident.

During the Luomahu tragedy that year, she hid in the closet and witnessed with her own eyes how her parents and her sister Huo Zihong, who had just been found and had not yet been reunited with her parents, were brutally murdered by Zhang Guanghua!

Li Yaqing trembled all over and even held her breath. She reached out to touch the thing in Jiang Xinxin's hand. She was eager to know what this thing looked like and why it had caused such a tragedy for her family?!

Why was Zhang Guanghua able to survive in such a situation where there was no possibility of survival!

Mu Dai's arrival diverted most of Li Yaqing's attention, and she was determined to be a good mother to Mu Dai, so she had been suppressing her inner hatred and self-loathing over the years.

But now that everything was revealed, she could no longer bear it. She finally got the fragment of the heart chart, and immediately grabbed it in her hand and tore it with all her strength, wanting to completely destroy the fragment of the heart chart.

Mu Dai hugged her with heartache and called out to her, hoping to help her regain some sanity, but Yiwansan felt that it would be best to let Li Yaqing vent.

The roars from Li Yaqing's throat were suppressed and hoarse, but Ke Xinjian was completely unharmed. Losing control, she simply put it in her mouth and tore it apart with her teeth.

However, even so, the fragments of the heart tablet were still intact. She had no choice but to throw them on the ground and stomp on them hard.

But she had realized that she could not cause any damage to the fragments of the heart charter, and she leaned on Mu Dai's arms and cried bitterly.

Jiang Xinxin assisted Mu Dai in helping Li Yaqing sit down on the sofa again. After Li Yaqing vented his anger, he gradually regained his sanity.

Anyway, now that everyone has seen her losing control, Li Yaqing wiped away her tears and directly told everything she knew:

"I'm not Huo Zihong. Huo Zihong is my sister who was lost when she was little. That day was my birthday, and I unexpectedly found my sister, so I happily brought her home, hoping to reunite our family."

"So I suggested that my sister dress up as me and meet my parents first, while I hid in a closet nearby and waited for the right moment to jump out."

"Then my parents came back and happily took out the birthday cake they had specially ordered. Just when my mother realized that my sister wasn't me, Zhang Guanghua suddenly appeared..."

Li Yaqing clenched her fists involuntarily again. She had scratched her hands and sprained her ankle in the ordeal, but she didn't feel anything at all as her excessive excitement overshadowed it.

When Li Yaqing told him about her life story, Li Tan had a different premonition. He sat there motionless, waiting for his strange fiancée to speak next.

After calming down a bit, Li Yaqing closed his eyes and continued, "Zhang Guanghua was a teacher who stayed on at my father's school. He was very handsome, elegant, knowledgeable, and talented. Even though everyone knew he was married at the time, many people still fell in love with him, including me."

"I could feel that he had feelings for me, so I even got pregnant with his child before he settled his marriage."

"My parents were strongly against me getting involved with a married woman, so they transferred Zhang Guanghua to Datong and took me to another city for surgery and to handle the baby in my belly. They also arranged for Li Tan to go on a blind date with me and even planned to get married..."

Li Tan looked at Li Yaqing who never looked at him, and he finally felt relieved. It turned out that the so-called feelings were just his wishful thinking. Li Yaqing really had no feelings for him.

For a moment he didn't know what expression he should make.

He wasted twenty-two years of his best youth on someone who didn't care about him at all. That wasn't two years or ten years, but a full twenty-two years!

He couldn't say that he really had no selfish motives at all. The Luomahu case was too special. Now all the secrets had finally surfaced and the truth had been revealed. He just put down the thermos in his hand, walked out of the room steadily, and left Xiaoshang River.

When Li Tan walked out of the door, Li Yaqing finally turned around to look at his back, but she really couldn't muster any emotions towards Li Tan. "I don't have any feelings for Li Tan. I know I should feel guilty for wasting twenty-two years, but I really... don't have the strength..."

Yisan and Cao Yanhua huddled together, not daring to make any sound, while Mu Dai stroked Li Yaqing's arm with a look of heartache to comfort her.

Jiang Xinxin stretched out her hand and hooked her finger at the fragment of the heart tablet that fell on the ground. A flash of light passed by, and the fragment of the heart tablet flew straight into Jiang Xinxin's palm as if it had been summoned, and then disappeared.

Li Yaqing's mood brightened slightly after being interrupted by Jiang Xinxin. He continued, "On the day of the tragedy, I hid in a closet and witnessed with my own eyes how Zhang Guanghua brutally murdered my parents and sister. He then wrapped my sister in fishing line and put her in a ridiculous position, turning her into an ugly puppet!"

"I didn't even think about calling the police. I wanted to execute Zhang Guanghua myself and avenge my family!"

"So I made inquiries all the way to Datong and arranged for Zhang Guanghua to meet me at the reservoir. He was very surprised and felt guilty when he saw me. He kept saying that he didn't mean it and hoped that I would forgive him."

"But at that time I just wanted to kill him, so I took out the dagger I had prepared long ago and stabbed him. He immediately changed, his eyes were red and he was extremely powerful. He almost strangled me to death on the spot."

"I struggled mightily, and then the reservoir issued a notice saying it would release floodwaters in three minutes. I thought, since that was the case, I might as well use the force of the flood to kill Zhang Guanghua in the water."

"And I don't know what happened to him. Just when I thought I couldn't do what I wanted, he suddenly regained consciousness and let me go without saying anything. He apologized repeatedly, saying that something was controlling him and making him do a series of things he didn't want to do, and asked me to trust him."

"But I didn't waver at all. I pushed him into the water while the flood was being released, and I clung to the gate pillars tightly and escaped. I thought I had succeeded..."

"So after Li Yaqing died, I took on my sister Huo Zihong's identity, inherited everything from the Li family, adopted Mu Dai, and lived to this day, finally revealing everything..."

Jiang Xinxin sighed and said, "I don't know when the Heart Tablet Fragment possessed Zhang Guanghua. At that time, Zhang Guanghua's future was cut short by your father, and he was forced to leave you. So he harbored resentment towards your parents. The Heart Tablet Fragment took advantage of this opportunity to amplify this resentment and manipulate Zhang Guanghua, causing the tragedy in your family."

"But what I want to say is that Zhang Guanghua may have had feelings for you, Aunt Hong, in the past. But now, twenty-two years have passed, and he has long since become Xin Jian's slave, a monster controlled by Xin Jian."

Li Yaqing smiled bitterly, "...After experiencing the murder of my parents and sister, how could I still harbor any illusions about Zhang Guanghua?"
