Rebirth handbook - chapter 53

At that moment, Meng Caiqi finally discovered that the child she had abandoned for many years was a very smart and precocious child, and the relationship between him and Chang Manjing seemed to be different from what she had imagined. He was not like a child raised by Chang Manjing as a lover, but like… who really liked Chang Manjing, but how was that possible? Meng Caiqi was not a fool. She vaguely sensed that He Weiming’s attitude was wrong, and felt bad in her heart. So she decided to test He Weiming, and  said a sentence that she had planned to say after several meetings with him.

“You are so young. How can you have any money? Even if Chang Manjing is willing to give it to you, it is just a little bit of pocket money leaked out of her hand. Aren’t you her adopted son or her husband’s child? All of it belongs to you. You don’t need to please and flatter her now.” Meng Caiqi said slowly while observing He Weiming, “If something happens to Chang Manjing, all her things will belong to your father and you. Then you and Xianyang won’t have to look at Chang Manjing’s face again…”

He Weiming had no expression, no fast heartbeat, and no anger. Meng Caiqi couldn’t understand him a little bit. If he really hated Chang Manjing, then hearing her remarks he should show some emotion, but if he liked Chang Manjing as she guessed, then he should have expressed anger when she said malicious things about Chang Manjing. But he didn’t do anything.

Could children at that age really hide their minds so well? Meng Caiqi didn’t believe it.

“You and He Xianyang want a lot.” He Weiming looked at his fingers. Meng Caiqi seemed to have received some signal from those words. She relaxed a lot, and said intimately, “Xianyang and I have only one child and that’s you. Of course, our things will also be yours. In the future, our family will never be separated again. You can live your life. I promise that no one will bully you again.”

He Weiming was non-committal. He looked into her eyes and asked, “If I am willing to cooperate, what accident do you want Chang Manjing to have?”

Meng Caiqi smiled softly, “I don’t want to kill her either, just get some medicine to turn her into a lunatic, and then you can send her to a nursing home… Don’t be afraid. We don’t want to kill her. We can’t do that. It’s enough to send her to a nursing home.”

Chang Manjing, who was far away in Chang’s house, heard the conversation in the earphones and sighed.

“Just sending to a nursing home? Dare not to kill?” The nursing home they sent her to in her last life wasn’t really a good place. The dark days drove her crazy. She couldn’t walk. No one took care of her. Even when she was starved to death, people stayed away…

Chang Manjing closed her eyes and heard He Weiming’s voice coming from the headphones.

“I understand.” He said calmly.

When He Weiming returned home, he didn’t see Chang Manjing in the lobby, nor she was there in the yard. He asked the nanny and learned that she had been upstairs the entire afternoon. She didn’t eat dinner, so his brows wrinkled. He frowned and went upstairs to Chang Manjing’s room. The room was dim, the floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open, and the thin white curtain was fluttering. He Weiming’s eyes looked around the room, and finally landed in the direction of the balcony. He walked over and saw Chang Manjing leaning on the chair. Her eyes were closed as if she was asleep.

He Weiming walked over with light steps, raised his hand and gently touched Chang Manjing’s face. The skin under his hand was as cold as ice. He simply hugged Chang Manjing, kissed her on the cheek, and prepared to take her back to the room. But then Chang Manjing opened her eyes. She looked at He Weiming, hooked to his neck and prevented him from moving, “You are back?”

“Yeah.” He Weiming who was next to Chang Manjing said, “If you don’t want to divorce He Xianyang, how about I drive him crazy and send him to the nursing home?”

Chang Manjing smiled and said, “Okay.”

He Weiming was taken aback, and had an unpredictable expression, “I thought you would not agree.”

“Why won’t I agree? You let Fuji Dong trouble his company, didn’t I just ignore it? And it’s really a good idea.” Chang Manjing said, “But, it’s not possible now. Let’s do it later, and you shouldn’t do it either.”

“Why?” He Weiming hugged Chang Manjing and asked softly, “Because I am his biological son?”

Chang Manjing just looked at He Weiming and didn’t speak. He Weiming looked at her, and then said, “You already knew I was He Xianyang’s biological son, right?”

“You took me back a few years ago, taught me to protect myself, nurture me, and made me and He Xianyang look at each other’s disgust, all because I am his biological son.”

“You said you like me and accept me, but it was because I am He Xianyang’s biological son. Because I can make him feel pain, so you treated me differently. Everything I got was because I am his biological son.” He Weiming finished sentence after sentence and raised his hand to touch Chang Manjing’s face.

“If you want to use me, I won’t feel angry, but if it’s for another man, I don’t think I can accept it. You can use me, but it can’t be because of He Xianyang, but because of me, and for me!”

He Weiming’s face was unprecedentedly terrifying. He stared at Chang Manjing solemnly. At that moment, Chang Manjing almost forgot that it was a 16-year-old boy in front of her, as she felt a kind of subconscious fear. But she quickly realized that he was the teenager she loved and tamed.

“I didn’t do it for He Xianyang.” Chang Manjing replied, and He Weiming’s expression eased a lot.

“I nurtured you only because you were excellent, better than I thought. I like you only because you deserve to be liked.”

Chang Manjing hugged He Weiming, “What else do you want to know? What do you want to know, tell me directly. I am willing to tell you.”
