Rebirth: I am the boss uncle

Chapter 585: One Person’s Journey! 49

Seeing Huang Qiaoyu's red eyes, Ye Youxuan naturally understood what he meant. She gently patted his shoulder as a way of comforting him.

"Ye Xuan, I admit that my father was not a good official. I can't even understand the things he did, but I also have to admit that he was a good father and a good husband!"

Huang Qiaoyu looked at Ye Xuan and solemnly made a promise to him.

“His sins… I will atone for them. I won’t commit suicide easily. I’m not as fragile as you think, nor as vengeful as you believe. I know that no matter what I do now, it can’t undo the damage my father’s mistakes have caused, but I will dedicate my life to helping those whose homes were destroyed because of my father…”

Ye Youxuan lowered his head and chuckled. Perhaps he shouldn't have underestimated human strength, nor should he have underestimated another person because of his own cowardice.

"I believe in you, you can definitely do it!"

After they finished speaking, the two of them sat quietly together again, gazing at the beautiful scenery...

After finishing his meal, Yin Ruiqi stood a short distance away, exchanging pleasantries with his teacher and his parents' savior. He glanced up and saw Ye Youxuan and his companion talking nearby. Startled by their close proximity, he didn't notice his teacher calling his name beside him.

Chen Jia looked at his disciple, who was once again lost in thought, and patted him on the shoulder helplessly.

"Ruiqi? What's wrong with you lately? Have you not been resting well? Why are you always spacing out?"

Yin Ruiqi snapped out of his daze after being slapped, and smiled sheepishly at the two of them.

"I'm so sorry, teacher. Brother Xie saw one of my patients... He's not feeling well, and he came downstairs for a walk as the weather got colder, so he was a little worried."

Chen Jia and his companion followed his gaze to the two people with their backs to them. Chen Jia knew Ye Youxuan and knew that he was not in good health, so he did not take his disciple's reaction to heart.

"Yes, we'll talk to him when we get back. It's fine for him to come out around noon; it's a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings, and coming out might worsen his condition. It's better to be careful... And who's that sitting next to him? Is he also a patient at our hospital? I've never seen him before!"

Looking at the short-haired boy sitting next to Ye Youxuan, Chen Jia couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"No, it seems to be his friend. His mother is in bed 31. She's the one who jumped off the building and committed suicide... and is now in a vegetative state."

Chen Jia frowned deeply upon hearing his disciple's words.

"How did he get involved with these people?"

Yin Ruiqi shook his head; he wasn't quite sure either.

Standing beside them, Xie Zhiyu, caught up in their conversation, glanced curiously at the two figures not far away. However, because their backs were turned to them, he couldn't make out their faces. He only felt that the long-haired figure looked familiar, but before he could ponder it further, he was interrupted by his godfather. (Xie Zhiyu!!! My darlings, doesn't that name sound familiar? That's the policeman from before! He was present in the Ye Youxuan school bullying case, the Yin Shuyu imprisonment case, and when Lin Moyan died.)

“Xiao Yu, don’t leave for the next couple of days. Your godmother has been happy to know you’re here for a long time. Go and spend a day or two with her before you leave. You’ve rarely come back since you went to Mucheng. You’re on your annual leave these days, right? You don’t have anything to do, so just stay here and keep these two old folks company.”

Chen Jia patted Xie Zhiyu's hand, showing great affection for him. They had watched Xie Zhiyu grow up; the two families had always been neighbors and had a very good relationship. They had always liked Xie Zhiyu, and their relationship had only grown stronger after they became his godparents.

In fact, Chen Jia and his wife had a child, but when he was a teenager, he was playing around and went swimming in a reservoir with his classmates. He accidentally drowned. The couple were devastated, and it was only thanks to the Xie family's help that they didn't die young. At that time, young Xie Zhiyu saw his parents getting worse and worse, so he knelt down in front of them and told them to treat him as their deceased son, and that he would be their biological son from then on...

Xie Zhiyu looked at his godfather, whose temples were graying, and couldn't bear to refuse. He had rushed to invite them to dinner today because he wanted to go home as soon as possible, but seeing his godfather like this, he couldn't bring himself to do it...

"I......"

"Yes, Brother Xie, you've come all this way, so please stay a few more days. My parents are overjoyed to hear you're here and would like to invite you to a meal."

Yin Ruiqi also tried to persuade them.

"this......"

Just then, shouts suddenly came from the crowd.

"Something's wrong! Someone's going to jump off a building!"

"Oh my god! Someone, come quick!"

"Call the police immediately!!! Hurry!"

......

Amidst the chaotic crowd, Xie Zhiyu and his companions looked up and saw a girl in a hospital gown standing on the upper floor of the emergency building. Upon seeing this, their expressions instantly changed, and they hurriedly ran towards the emergency building.

Although the emergency building isn't as tall as other inpatient buildings, it's still five or six stories high, and jumping from it would be fatal.

People downstairs kept shouting, and soon fire trucks and police cars arrived.

Ye Youxuan, downstairs, looked up at the girl preparing to commit suicide upstairs and frowned...

......

"Young lady, talk things out. Don't have such negative thoughts. Tell us what happened, and we'll all work together to find a solution."

"What happened to you? Did you get bullied or something? Are any of your family members with you? Is it because of medical expenses? Or because you're in pain from being sick?"

"We can figure out how to pay the medical expenses slowly. There are so many kind-hearted people in society; there's bound to be a way. Don't do anything foolish. As long as you're alive, there's hope."

"Yes, you have to think about your family members who are still alive, think about those who love you. If you jump from here, it will be a lifelong shadow for them."

"Yes, child... there is hope as long as you are alive. If you die, you have nothing left. No matter what difficulties you face, you can find a way to overcome them, but if you die, you really have nothing left."

.......

The girl standing on the edge of the rooftop seemed not to hear the advice, staring blankly ahead, tears streaming down her cheeks and finally dripping down her face.

The police officers behind the girl didn't dare to approach her without permission. As soon as they got even a little closer, the girl would start screaming in agony, refusing to let them get any closer.
