I intentionally turned on the Surveillance Program and set my phone not to lock. I wanted Chen Zhaoyang to discover that I was the one who called the police. I watched as Chen Zhaoyang got closer and closer to me. I raised the Pepper Spray that I had prepared earlier and sprayed it towards Chen Zhaoyang's eyes.
As he bent down to rub his eyes, I pushed him away and ran outside. I didn't dare to run too fast; I was afraid that Chen Zhaoyang wouldn't be able to keep up. I deliberately slowed my pace, allowing him to see my escape trail. I hid in an old warehouse.
Chen Zhaoyang took a kitchen knife from his home and followed me to the abandoned warehouse. He didn't know where I was hiding, so he walked cautiously with every step. I calculated the distance as he approached me. It was almost time, so I deliberately made some noise.
Attracted by the sound, Chen Zhaoyang quickly ran over and found me. "You can't escape!" he shouted, holding the kitchen knife and stepping closer to me. "That should be something you say to yourself!" I stood still, smiling at Chen Zhaoyang.
Seeing that I was unarmed, Chen Zhaoyang sneered, "You have nothing; how can you fight me?" He triumphantly pulled out my phone, believing that without it, I couldn't call for help. "You killed my mother; now you can go join her!"
After saying this, Chen Zhaoyang stepped forward quickly, raising the knife high above his head, ready to strike down at me. The warehouse was dark, so he couldn't see that behind me was actually a drop-off. He thought there was a wall behind me and assumed I had nowhere to retreat, so he used all his strength to swing the knife at me. As I sidestepped, his brain finally registered what was happening.
But the body's inertia pushed him forward, and he fell down. Below was a swamp; the more he struggled, the deeper he sank. Chen Zhaoyang's body kept sinking. At first, I could still hear his cries for help, but gradually, all I could hear was the sound of him choking on water. Finally, there was no sound at all. Once I saw that he had no chance of survival, I felt relieved and let myself crash against the stones on the ground. Just before I lost consciousness, I heard the sound of police sirens coming from outside the warehouse. I didn't call the police with my phone, but I had a smartwatch! My cousin and I were taken to the hospital. The police also dispatched a rescue team to recover Chen Zhaoyang's body. Chen Zhaoyang's fingerprints were found on a chair at home. His fingerprints were also on the kitchen knife that had fallen in the warehouse. Surveillance footage from the roadside captured scenes of Chen Zhaoyang chasing me. All signs pointed to Chen Zhaoyang wanting to kill us. My cousin and I only sustained minor injuries and were fine after lying in the hospital for two or three days. We happened to leave the hospital with Grandpa. Qin Zhili was executed, and Grandpa no longer had a caregiver. Aunt arranged for a new caregiver for Grandpa. Learning from Qin Zhili's lesson, Aunt didn't dare to hire a nanny again and instead looked for several male caregivers. Grandpa was not satisfied at all. He would complain that one male caregiver wasn't attentive enough and then criticize another for not cooking well. Furious, Second Aunt pointed her finger at Grandpa's nose and scolded him, "Are you looking for a partner or a caregiver?"
Aunt was so annoyed that she had no choice but to find Nanny. In the end, Grandpa either complained about her looks or criticized her for not knowing how to dance the waltz. Aunt went on strike and refused to help find someone. Grandpa kept grumbling about how he couldn't manage without a caregiver due to his limited mobility. "This old man, when he was dancing with Qin Zhili, he didn't seem to have any trouble moving!" Second Aunt always hit the nail on the head. There was nothing we could do; we all had to take turns caring for Grandpa, one day at a time. Today was my turn again.
I had originally planned to wait until after the New Year to get my revenge. However, Grandpa thought I had snitched on him to Aunt, which led to him being separated from Qin Zhili. So he took out all his frustrations on me. Whenever it was my day to take care of him, Grandpa would deliberately make a mess of the house. Late at night, just as I was about to fall asleep, Grandpa loudly demanded water. After I finally poured him some and returned to my room to continue sleeping, he started shouting again that he was out of water.
I found it strange that he would drink so much water at night. I left the door slightly ajar and peeked inside. I saw Grandpa intentionally pouring the water I had given him out of the window while complaining that he had no water left and calling for me to bring more.
