Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1302 - 1301: Boiling Blood

"Don’t cry, let the fireflies take you away. The songs of the countryside are your eternal reliance. Go home, return to the original beauty..."

The concept of home holds significant importance for everyone in the world.

It’s the place you long for when you’re tired and feel like crying, because no matter how bad your life is, as long as "home" exists, you have a place to return to, where you can be protected, rest, and find the courage to start anew.

In Huaxia, during the New Year festival, the most important thing for people is to go home for the celebration. After wandering outside for a whole year, everyone is tired, wanting to pause, take a break, and relax. That’s what home is, and only home can provide that.

The Western world also has Christmas, similar to Huaxia’s Spring Festival, its most important feature being family and friends gathering. In "Friends," every Christmas episode is always the warmest. Monica gets busy preparing dinner early in the morning, as it’s their most grand meal of the year.

Sometimes, home isn’t necessarily a specific address or a house, but a spiritual "place of return."

Where the heart feels peace is one’s home.

However, not everyone has a home.

Zou Xiaosheng is an individual without a home, in any sense of the word. She has nowhere to "return."

Her life has been more bitter than most, lacking even the home that most people possess.

After meeting her biological parents, her longing for home reached an unprecedented level. What she wanted was less a house, more a spiritual place of return.

But when she shared this idea with her mother, it stirred a strong sense of resistance in her mother.

If her parents hadn’t divorced, they might have accepted her. Yet, her parents had already divorced and formed their own families. Her existence suddenly became awkward, neither her father nor her mother willing to include her in their new families.

To them, she already didn’t exist. Her sudden appearance only brought them trouble and inconvenience.

She wanted a home, yet they couldn’t provide one. This was an irreconcilable conflict, making confrontation inevitable.

When she expressed her desire for a home, her mother became very agitated. That woman feared nothing more than this, because she couldn’t provide it.

One, she couldn’t possibly incorporate this daughter into her new family, and two, she didn’t have the money to buy a house for her. Providing means sacrificing something massive, giving her immense pressure.

For a woman capable of selling her daughter, she’s inherently selfish. How could she possibly bear such a hefty price?

So she broke down, angrily scolding Zou Xiaosheng, which was expected. Through her words, she tried to shirk responsibility, even placing blame on Zou Xiaosheng’s adoptive parents. Blame them for dying early. Had they not adopted Zou Xiaosheng, another good family would have, and Zou Xiaosheng should just blame them.

After scolding Zou Xiaosheng, the woman then blocked her.

Zou Xiaosheng’s father wasn’t much better. Upon learning Zou Xiaosheng wanted a home, this man also broke down, calling her ungrateful.

"This matter later escalated onto the internet. My parents gave interviews to the media, claiming I pressured them to buy me a house. Many netizens came to insult me, accusing me of greed, suggesting my search for them was to get a house. My intention wasn’t to have them buy me a house, just a home, a place to live. Was I wrong?" Zou Xiaosheng tearfully looked at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan comforted, "You are not wrong. They should have given you a home. All of this is their doing. Had they not sold you, none of the later issues would exist. It’s a responsibility they should bear."

Zou Xiaosheng said, "My parents’ heartlessness, their slander against me, and the netizens’ online abuse suffocates me. I feel as though countless knives are flying towards me from all directions, unable to dodge, thoroughly wounded. Perhaps my existence is a mistake, perhaps I shouldn’t be in this world."

Feeling enormous pressure, she wanted to escape everything. Thus, she traveled alone to Southern Yunnan, intending to unwind, but those knives didn’t spare her, each cutting deeper into her heart.

She tried to explain, and some understood her, standing by her side. Yet it couldn’t stop the countless knives flying towards her.

What made her most desperate wasn’t the online abuse, but the realization that the home she yearned for, and the parental love she desperately desired, she might never receive. Despite them being alive, it was as if they were dead, so close yet so untouchable, the pain cutting the deepest.

Fate seemed to play a cruel joke, giving her a glimmer of hope only to toss her harshly into the abyss.

The past decade, she endured countless hardships, none as painful as the hurt her biological parents brought her at this moment. She’s completely lost the courage to live.

She wandered Southern Yunnan aimlessly, like a ghost, until she saw the railway tracks and lay down.

If Lin Fan hadn’t pulled her away in time, she wouldn’t be in this painful world anymore. It was Lin Fan who brought her back, and with her storytelling, all the pain returned.

Unable to hold back anymore, she covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.

Lin Fan leaned over, gently embracing her, she fell into Lin Fan’s arms, sobbing against him. Now, only the embrace of this stranger, Lin Fan, brought her a bit of warmth.

"What should I do, what should I do?" Zou Xiaosheng cried.

Lin Fan said, "Do you want to hear my advice?"

Zou Xiaosheng said, "Yes."

Lin Fan said, "If I were you, I would keep living. I would take revenge. I would make all those bastards who hurt me pay!"

Zou Xiaosheng said, "I’ve thought about that too, but I can’t do it. I’m just a weak woman, what capability do I have for revenge? I can’t touch anyone."

The saddest thing in life is wanting without getting, will without power. This sense of helplessness deepens her despair.

Lin Fan said, "I can help you."

Ah?

Zou Xiaosheng lifted her head, looking at Lin Fan, hope and vitality seemingly returned to her eyes, for now, Lin Fan gave her hope.

Lin Fan said, "You just said you met your father in Yun City, your father’s home is in Yun City?"

Zou Xiaosheng said, "Yes, saying this makes me laugh and cry, for the past two years I was studying in Yun City, yet unaware I was in the same city as my biological father."

Lin Fan smiled, "Do you know what’s more coincidental? I too am in Yun City, and I’m about to return, so you should come back with me. Those villains think they can escape consequences from their wrongdoings, but I will show them they’re wrong."

Hearing this, Zou Xiaosheng’s eyes sparkled with excitement, she felt as though the blood within her was heating up.

Blood boiling!
