Chapter 229 Jiang Jintong Chapter 71
But faced with the most rational choice, Xie Luo could never really make up his mind.
Whenever she closed her eyes, she would see Jiang Jintong pressing down on her, protecting her tightly.
There are many imperfections in his character, especially his dual personality. In any aspect, Xie Luo would eliminate him when making a choice.
In fact, no matter who you are, when talking about mental illness, your first reaction is fear and then rejection.
Unless the other person is your relative, lover, or friend or someone else.
In fact, no matter what the other person looks like, as long as the relationship can help you overcome your fear of the unknown, you can continue.
Jiang Jintong is hot-tempered and irritable, and he also likes to lie and is not careful in doing things.
He is spoiled and meddlesome, just like a little child, always trying to use self-harm to make others care about him and fulfill his wishes.
Xie Luo knew that it would be very tiring to tie the future together with such a person.
In fact, everyone knows it.
But did Xie Luo really understand Jiang Jintong at that time?
She didn't, because she didn't like Jiang Jintong, she was just "loving" Jiang Jintong perfunctorily.
Because of this, she could only see the bad things about Jiang Jintong and didn't care at all what the real Jiang Jintong was like.
Because of the Jiang family's relationship, Jiang Jintong has lost the initiative. No matter how Xie Luo looks at him, he can only see his surface.
But after Xie Luo became blind, she abandoned everything external, understood Jiang Jintong's inner world, and came into contact with the real Jiang Jintong.
Jiang Jintong is actually not a bad boy, he is just too afraid of losing and being forgotten.
Jiang Jintong would do things that are not in his own interest for the sake of fairness to Xie Luo, and would also go far away to atone his sins for the sake of peace in his heart.
Jiang Jintong is extremely gentle in the village. Even the spoiled Jinjin will patiently learn how to take care of Xie Luo.
Is Jiang Jintong a bad person?
Maybe before, Xie Luo could have said that he was bad.
But after what happened to Xiaobai, Xie Luo couldn't say it.
People are complicated, and Xie Luo is no exception.
She couldn't purely hate Jiang Jintong, nor could she purely love Jiang Jintong, and she had no way to make a direct choice.
The choice is actually very simple: to stay or not to stay, to love or not to love, to accept or not to accept.
Just looking at the options, it seems to be a very simple thing.
But are emotions really that simple?
If it were simple, Xie Luo would have kicked Jiang Jintong away and ran away. There would be no need to worry about it.
"How is Jiang Jintong now?"
Xie Luo finally skipped Mrs. Jiang's question and asked about Jiang Jintong's situation.
"The injury is quite serious, but fortunately it is not a vital part. It will heal after some rest."
"Fortunately, the chandelier didn't hit his head, otherwise, he would have been killed."
Mrs. Jiang observed Xie Luo's reaction as she spoke, but the girl opposite never showed any different expression.
There was no heartache or impatience, it was just like listening to someone else's story.
"He risked his life to save you like this, and you're not moved at all?"
"move."
"... ...Oh, you are both rational and irrational."
Mrs. Jiang shook her head, still puzzled: "I don't quite understand, you clearly know what your best choice is, why didn't you want to answer my question directly just now."
"Xie Luo, you are not stupid. You always know what you want."
"Escape from the Jiang family is your best choice."
"I know."
The girl glanced at Mrs. Jiang and did not deny her words, but she also did not give a direct answer.
"Do you like Jintong?"
"I like it and I don't like it either."
Mrs. Jiang looked at Xie Luo deeply, knowing that the other party was not willing to answer such a question.
She glanced at the scenery outside the hospital and started talking about other things: "I know that Jintong is not a likable child."
"He gets angry easily, has a stubborn temper, is mentally ill, likes to threaten others with self-harm, is extremely delicate, and has nothing good to offer except for his good looks."
"Let alone you, any normal person would probably not accept him as their partner."
Madam Jiang sighed and nodded slightly, her expression becoming more desolate: "Actually, he wasn't like this before. He was a very good kid when he was young. He didn't make much noise and always seemed very well-behaved. He wouldn't cause any trouble for us."
"I know he really wanted me and my husband to accompany him, but how could we have the time at that time? The family had a lot of things waiting for the two of us to deal with. At that time, I thought that there would always be a chance to make it up to him in the future, and there was no need to put down so many things at that time to accompany him."
Mrs. Jiang misses Jiang Jintong the most at that time.
She even thought at one point that as long as Jiang Jintong returned to normal, her well-behaved and obedient son would come back.
Later, she gradually realized that her son would never come back no matter what.
Schizophrenia is accidental, but the stress that causes schizophrenia is not accidental.
That was what they had built up bit by bit in Jiang Jintong's heart with their own hands.
The kidnapping was just a trigger.
"Jintong only had you as his playmate at that time. He cherished you and liked you very much. You should not blame him. He had a reason for leaving without saying goodbye."
"what?"
Why did the other party change the subject so drastically? Is he trying to play the emotional card?
"He was kidnapped by our enemies, and later escaped by coincidence, but his head was broken and he became a double personality."
"You must have wondered why he was afraid of the dark and thunder?"
"Because he was locked up in a small dark room when he was very young. It was a rainy day at that time. Those people were ruthless and almost forced Jintong to death."
Madam Jiang's voice trembled a little. She closed her eyes and looked at Xie Luo again: "He always thinks that I don't know these things, but I know... I know it very well."
"Before they died, those lunatics described in detail how they tortured Jintong, just to see my husband and I lose our composure."
"He is afraid of the dark, thunder and injections because of the abuse he has suffered."
It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Jiang is so obedient to him and gives him whatever he wants.
Because the guilt has already overwhelmed them, they can no longer remain deaf and dumb.
“… ….”
Xie Luo looked at Madam Jiang in silence, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.
"Why are you telling me this now? Do you think I will easily change my mind because of these things?"
"Or do you think that I am going to pity Jiang Jintong just like you guys?"
