Chapter 46 Because We Are One Family (1)
Everyone looked at Lin Yao, whose arms and body were wrapped in gauze.
Although he was only ten years old, he was very tall and strong, with a fierce look in his eyes, which was not endearing.
"That little beast Lin Han deliberately set fire to burn my brother and me to death. When we tried to escape, he beat us. My brother was severely burned. It was all his doing!" Lin Yao shouted in accusation.
He spoke with tears streaming down his face, but no one believed him.
Because Lin Han is too thin and small, he simply doesn't have that ability!
It would be more accurate to say that Lin Yao wanted to burn him to death, since if he had just pushed him, Lin Han probably wouldn't have been able to get up.
"No wonder you're your parents' biological child, you make up lies without even thinking!"
"Child, how old are you? Can't you learn something good?"
"Exactly! You got yourself into trouble because you were playing around, and now you want to shift the blame to Lin Han. I think you're addicted to bullying people, aren't you?"
"Do you think we're all fools? Be careful, you'll get your comeuppance!"
Amidst everyone's accusations, Lin Yao felt more wronged than ever before.
He was telling the truth, so why doesn't anyone believe him?
"If I'm lying, may I be struck by lightning!" Lin Yao swore to the heavens.
As soon as he finished speaking, thunder rumbled in the clear sky.
Everyone was immediately shocked and exclaimed in amazement, except for Lin Yao, who looked completely bewildered.
Su Dingding pretended to be scared and hugged the girl closest to him, murmuring, "Sister, will brother really get struck by lightning and die?"
"Hanhan, don't be afraid, he deserved to be killed."
“That won’t do. If he dies, I won’t have a brother anymore.” Su Dingding said seriously.
Everyone immediately praised Su Dingding, saying he was sensible and kind.
This enraged Lin Yao, who suddenly bent over and charged at Su Dingding.
"You little beast, I'll run you over!"
Someone managed to restrain Lin Yao's head, called a doctor, and took him away.
“Brother!” Su Dingding’s eyes reddened.
Everyone started comforting him again.
"Please don't blame my brother. He must be in too much pain to be like this." Su Dingding wiped away her tears and asked cautiously, "Uncle, Aunt, brother, and sister, you are all kind people. Can I give some of these treats and toys to my brother?"
Everyone sighed again, but at the same time they also taught him to protect himself.
After seeing off this group of kind people, Su Dingding was about to rest when Lin Yuandong came in.
In just a few days, he looked haggard.
Half of his hair had turned white, and he had grown a beard. He was unkempt, with large bruises on his face, and even his T-shirt had a tear in it.
He walked up to Su Dingding in a daze and suddenly grabbed him.
"What do you want to do?" Su Dingding wasn't afraid.
"Dad knows he was wrong. Can you please ask those kind people to donate money to our family? Otherwise, your aunt and two brothers will die!" Lin Yuandong said, his voice trembling with tears.
"What does it have to do with me if they die?" Su Dingding asked calmly.
"How can you be so heartless at such a young age? Would you be alive today without your aunt? Lin Yao and Lin Yan are your own brothers. Besides, you were the one who started the fire. You should take responsibility for your mistakes!" Lin Yuandong roared.
Su Dingding smiled.
When the original owner was severely burned, you didn't say a single word of concern!
If someone hadn't called the police, let alone taking him to the hospital, they probably wouldn't have even given him a second glance and just left him to fend for himself.
They're both his own sons, so what did he do wrong?
You're the one seeking pleasure and finding women outside the marriage, yet Lin Han is the one who ultimately suffers the pain and torment. Why should he?
How dare they talk so shamelessly about responsibility? It's a joke!
"You little beast, you still dare to laugh? Believe me or not, I'll beat you to death!" Lin Yuandong threatened viciously.
“I don’t believe it,” Su Dingding retorted.
"I'll ask you one more time, are you willing to cooperate with me to get those people to donate money?" Lin Yuandong grabbed Su Dingding's collar.
"I'm not willing," Su Dingding replied casually.
Lin Yuandong could no longer control his emotions and started waving his fists.
Just then, another group of kind-hearted people pushed open the door and walked in.
"stop!"
"My God, thank goodness we arrived in time! How dare you hit the child..."
Several elderly men and women carrying nutritional supplements and toys rushed in, grabbed Lin Yuandong's arm without saying a word, and pulled him away.
Two strong young men followed him and pinned him to the ground, kicking him twice.
Lin Yuandong lay on the ground wailing, while Su Dingding sat on the hospital bed and wept bitterly.
This time, he didn't speak well of Lin Yuandong, but directly accused him of his crimes.
"My dad wanted me to scam money from kind people, but I refused, and he threatened to beat me to death..."
"Waaaah, you're all good people, how could we cheat good people out of their money? It's wrong, I don't want to..."
After learning the reason, the kind person hugged Su Dingding. It's rare to have a child with such a positive outlook in a family like this.
If the child stays with them, their life will be truly ruined.
As a result, under pressure from public opinion, Lin Yuandong was ultimately stripped of his custody rights over Lin Han.
Lin Han's biological mother could not be found, so in accordance with the law, a temporary adoptive family was found for Lin Han.
This is also the family that Su Dingding carefully selected from many families willing to adopt him. The elderly couple had good tempers, liked to travel, had no children, but were wealthy.
When he joined his new family, he said goodbye to his past life completely.
To heal the emotional wounds Lin Han had suffered over the years, the elderly couple not only provided him with material comforts but also showed him their love.
At the same time, they will also take him to travel around and see a wider world.
However, they have a lot of relatives and friends, so Su Dingding has to mentally prepare herself to greet them one by one at every large gathering.
But this is also the normal life of an ordinary child, which is what Lin Han longs for.
He lived a good life, but Lin Yuandong's family was in hell.
He wasn't well-liked, and he managed to borrow some money to pay for his two sons' medical treatment.
When Gu Ting was discharged from the hospital, she was paralyzed on one side, drooling, and her speech was slurred. She could no longer curse.
Because he didn't have the money for skin grafts, Lin Yao's muscles were atrophied when he was discharged from the hospital.
Lin Yan, who originally had little hope, miraculously survived, but his burns were so severe that he completely lost the ability to take care of himself.
But his mind was clear; he remembered the whole process, especially the time Lin Yao pushed him!
His most trusted and beloved elder brother pushed him into the fire, giving him a chance to live.
This incident weighed heavily on his heart and became a permanent source of hatred.
But Lin Yan didn't tell anyone about this, because his father worked hard every day from dawn till dusk to support them, and his mother and he were both unable to take care of themselves and could only rely on Lin Yao.
So Lin Yan deliberately caused trouble for Lin Yao because it was something he owed him!
