Chapter 321 Freedom, Courage
Upon hearing this, Zhong Xiaoxiao pictured Lin Qingping driving a truck, lights up, and appearing in front of her. Her crisp and decisive "Get in the truck!" still seemed to echo in her ears, each word ringing in her ears.
“I…I want to live a life like yours,” Zhong Xiaoxiao said softly.
"What kind of life do you want me to live?" Lin Qingping stared at her, only able to see the top of her head. "Zhong Xiaoxiao, look up and tell me!"
“I want to live a life like yours…” Zhong Xiaoxiao slowly raised her head and met Lin Qingping’s gaze. In Lin Qingping’s eyes, she saw determination and encouragement.
She bit her lip and raised her voice, "Lin Qingping, I want to live like you."
“Tell me loudly! Zhong Xiaoxiao, what kind of life do you want to live?” Lin Qingping stared into her eyes.
Zhong Xiaoxiao suddenly burst into tears. All she could see was a group of people helping her escape from the village, the sounds of people trying to catch her, the torches getting closer and closer, the noise and the terror. Liu Dong's ghostly voice seemed to drift from afar: Xiaoxiao, you have to be good. If you just behave, how could I bear to hit you?
Zhong Xiaoxiao covered her ears, trying to block out all the sounds, but they still roared in her ears. She shouted loudly, trying to make her voice drown out everything else, "Lin Qingping! I want to live a life like yours! Free! Brave! Determined! Afraid of nothing!"
After he shouted, it suddenly fell silent.
Zhong Xiaoxiao was somewhat bewildered. She lowered her hands from her ears and saw Lin Qingping and all the people who had saved her surrounding her, looking at her. The shouts of Liu Dong and the villagers had all disappeared.
Lin Qingping stepped forward and took her hand. "Zhong Xiaoxiao, we can pull you out of the village, but to completely extricate yourself from this quagmire of a life, only you can pull yourself out."
Lin Qingping's hands are very warm.
A tear fell from Zhong Xiaoxiao's eye onto the back of Lin Qingping's hand. She finally nodded, "I know, I'll listen to you."
Lin Qingping accompanied her to the police station to report the case.
In fact, Lin Qingping didn't know if reporting domestic violence would be useful now. In fact, in Lin Qingping's opinion, this was no longer domestic violence. With the head injury of Zhong Xiaoxiao, if the impact had been more severe, it was hard to say whether she would have died. This was intentional injury!
However, even thirty years later, domestic violence is still seen by many as a family conflict, a quarrel between husband and wife.
However, whether it's useful or not, this step still needs to be taken!
They took the hospital diagnosis to the police station to report the case.
The police officer who received the call was a young man. He was shocked when he saw Zhong Xiaoxiao's appearance. When he learned that her husband had hit her, he maintained a calm and professional demeanor, but he felt very sorry for her. He took a statement from Zhong Xiaoxiao and took her picture.
Then, Lin Qingping told everyone to get in the car and took them to a guesthouse in a neighboring county.
Lin Qingping knocked on the door of a room. Inside, a man was holding a child and rocking him to sleep. The child seemed very uneasy and didn't cry loudly, but just whimpered and sobbed occasionally.
"Niu Niu!" Zhong Xiaoxiao rushed over and immediately hugged the child to her arms. Pressing her face against the child's, tears streamed down her face.
But after applying the plaster, she immediately remembered something, turned around, put the child on the bed, and carefully began to check the child's body for any injuries. That monster Liu Dong really is capable of anything...
