Chapter 76
Chapter 76 The Murderer Behind
Shi Jing’s father is a professor. Shi Jing inherits his intelligence and preciseness. She studied well from an early age and successfully got her doctor’s degree.
“But her mother is an uneducated rural woman. She and her father were arranged a marriage when they were very young.”
Shi Jing’s father is weak and kind. After coming out of the countryside, he did not dump his wife who shared his hard lot, but married her officially and had the daughter Shi Jing. Shi Jing has been abused by her husband, which Shi Jing’s mother has been hiding from her husband.
“When I showed her father those photos, he cried on the spot.” Lang Ruoxian says, “But her mother still defends for her son-in-law.”
Yan Hua sneers. “Half of Shi Jing’s tragedy was also caused by her mother. What happened later? What did her father say?”
“His father slapped her mother and told her that if she kept being like this, he would get divorced.”
Shi Jing’s mother was most afraid of divorce and immediately shut up. Shi Jing’s father simply has locked her at home today.
“Will the lawsuit be won?” Yan Hua suddenly feels the burden on her shoulders heavy.
If the jerk cannot be sent to jail in the end, she will fail Shi Jing and Shi Jing’s father, and many netizens who have left messages online to support her.
“Don’t worry. He will definitely be put behind the bars.” Seeing that she is so nervous, Lang Ruoxian pats Yan Hua on the head. “He has committed crimes of serious injuries, hostage-taking, domestic violence, and maliciously causing his wife to miscarry. With so many charges added up, he will at least be sentenced to stay in prison for ten years.”
Yan Hua remembers what Shi Jing said.
“I have been beaten by him for ten years. Therefore, let him stay in prison for ten years! Then we will be even and we shall never meet each other if we have the next life. Heaven forbid!
The trend of public opinions on the Internet begins to change, and everyone begins to care about how many years that jerk could be sentenced to. Some netizens’ comments are especially soothing and encouraging, which Yan Hua forwards.
“Shi Jing’s tragedy lies in knowing that her husband was wrong, but she had always held hope that he might change. If she divorced the first time she was subjected to domestic violence, the bad things that followed would never happen at all.”
“What did the jerk say? He was very scared when he hit her for the first time, being afraid that Shi Jing would divorce him, but Shi Jing chose to forgive him again and again, which results in creating an abnormal and cold-blooded husband.”
“When you forgive a devil, you have already dug a grave for yourself.”
…
Fei Ying exits from the micro blog. “It feels like a year has passed within these two days.”
“At least, we have sent the man into prison. At least Shi Jing can start her life again.” Yan Hua is sitting in the garden. Gungun and Xiaojiu are driving a toy car not far away.
“You did very well.” Fei Ying hugs Yan Hua. “If I were you, I wouldn’t be as good as you!”
Yan Hua shakes her head. “If it weren’t for Lang Ruoxian…” She stops talking when she sees Fei Ying’s joking eyes.
“Now our work has not finished yet. The police cannot get any clue to find out who had leaked the information.”
“It is better to count on Lang Ruoxian of your family than on them!” Says Fei Ying.
Yan Hua hurries to argue, “What do you mean by saying him of my family? Don’t talk nonsense!”
“OK, I haven’t said anything.” Fei Ying makes a gesture of surrender.
Half a month after the incident, Lang Ruoxian finally gives Yan Hua an answer.
“Are you sure that you are right?” When Yan Hua hears the name, she is completely confused. “How can it be her? Then… why did she do that?”
Shu Yafei! It turns out to be Shu Yafei!
“This is not the only bad thing she did.” Lang Ruoxian sees that Yan Hua is shocked. Although he feels distressed for her, he tells her everything Shu Yafei had done in order to teach her a lesson.
“In the mountain villa, the crazy beggar you met was set free by her. When you went to the market, she drew those hooligans. She had discovered the hole in the vegetable garden first, then disguised it, deliberately making you fall in the next day.”
“She also planned to go to the foundation to help. She overheard the conversation between Fei Ying and you, knowing where you would meet Shi Jing. She also took the photos and then packed Shi Jing’s information to send to a social media influencer.”
And she did all this because…
“Because she has been jealous of you.” Lang Ruoxian pauses and says quietly, “She has been jealous that you are prettier than her, richer than her, leading a better life than she does.”
Yan Hua is shocked. “Is that the only reason? Didn’t she know that the leaking of the information would have someone killed?”
“If she had the conscience, she wouldn’t be jealous of you.”
“What should we deal with her?” Yan Hua suddenly gets nervous. “Does Grandpa know it? And Uncle Xing…”
Lang Ruoxian’s face turns cold. “I have delayed so long because I just don’t know how to explain to you. Grandpa and Uncle Xing want to give her another chance. She will be sent to the northern city where she went to college.”
“And then?” Yan Hua sneers, “Then she can continue to find a good job, frame colleagues, and find another boyfriend. If she has a good luck, she can have a happy home and a lovely child in the future.”
Lang Ruoxian looks at her helplessly. He wants to speak but is interrupted by Yan Hua.
“On what grounds? On what grounds does she feel at ease in pursuing happiness after she has done such bad things and hurt others? “ Yan Hua trembles with anger. “I don’t agree! I absolutely don’t agree!”
“Do you also think she can be forgiven?” Yan Hua stares at Lang Ruoxian.
Lang Ruoxian pulls her into his arms. “I haven’t finished yet. However, you have said all of it yourself.”
“Of course, she can’t be allowed to pursue happiness. Grandpa and Uncle Xing think it OK to send her away. Instead, this is more convenient. If she stays in G City or goes back to the mountain villa, I really can’t do it right under their noses.”
“Don’t worry. Let her go. It’s not too late to settle accounts with her afterwards.”
Lang Ruoxian finishes talking, while Yan Hua quietly stays in his arms.
“Hua?” He bows his head and helps Yan Hua up.
Yan Hua suddenly pushes him away and runs away like a frightened little animal.
Lang Ruoxian touches the wound on his shoulder and feels that the knife wound is really worth it!
Yan Hua hasn’t expected Shu Yafei to dare to come to her. Shu Yafei blocks her at the gate of the center when she takes Gungun to the parent-child education center on the weekend.
“Let’s have a talk!” Shu Yafei’s indifferent attitude arouses Yan Hua’s anger.
“Have a talk? I have nothing in common with a beast in human clothing.”
Shu Yafei’s face darkens, then she smiles again. “So what? Even if I did everything, I am still standing in front of you, with nothing to lose. Are you particularly angry?”
“No.” Yan Hua smiles more sweetly than Shu Yafei does. “What’s the use of being angry with a beast? It will degrade my character and morals in vain.”
“What character and morals do you have?” Shu Yafei’s facial expression suddenly becomes ferocious. “Aren’t you lucky to have a child with a dead man? Otherwise, you are not as good as me!”
Yan Hua looks at her coldly. “You are wrong. At present, even if I beg in the street, I will be better than you. Because I am a human being. How about you? Even if you become a young mistress of rich and powerful family, you are still a beast and a reptile.”
“You…”
Yan Hua hasn’t scolded her enough. “You are like a rat in a gutter, stinking from inside to outside. Even your heart is stinking for it is rotten and full of maggots!”
Shu Yafei is stimulated by Yan Hua and rushes to her like a madwoman, trying to scratch her.
Yan Hua wants to dodge, but runs into a person. The next second, Shu Yafei is kicked away into the middle of the road.
“Why are you here?” Yan Hua asks Lang Ruoxian, who has a calm and steady face.
“I have arranged people to follow her all the time. Half an hour ago, they told me that Shu Yafei was wandering around in the vicinity of the place where Gungun has the parent-child education class. I knew she was coming to see you.”
On the other side, Shu Yafei sees Lang Ruoxian. She stands up and runs to the two persons, too excited to notice any pain. “Ruoxian, why can’t you like me? I have done all for you!”
The expression in Yan Hua’s eyes changes.
Lang Ruoxian is disgusted and looks at Shu Yafei as coldly as snow. “Don’t use me as an excuse to defend for your disgusting behavior. Why should I like you?”
“But I like you!” Shu Yafei is a person who is immersed in her own world.
When you do not follow her script, it is your fault and you let her down.
Yan Hua thinks of what a comedian said: There are many people who like me. Who do you think you are?
“That you like me makes me sick.” Lang Ruoxian says coldly.
Shu Yafei is stimulated to cry and turns the blame to Yan Hua. Yan Hua’s heart beats faster. People are all around. If she says something…
“Plug her mouth and send her back to the mountain villa.” Lang Ruoxian acts more quickly. Shu Yafei is dragged away by two bodyguards as soon as Lang Ruoxian raises his hand.
Yan Hua glances at him and turns away.
“Where are you going?” Lang Ruoxian grabs her arm.
Yan Hua breaks free from his hand and says, “Gungun is going to finish his class.”
“I shall go in with you to meet him.”
“No way.” Yan Hua refuses, “If you want to send him to class, you can. Next time you come, and I won’t come. But you can’t go in with me for it will create a bad influence.”
Through the big glass window, Yan Hua sees Fei Ying staring at them with a curious facial expression.
“You must go quickly, because Gungun is really going to finish his class.”
Lang Ruoxian doesn’t stop her this time. He just says a sentence in her ear.
“Yan Hua, are you jealous?”
Yan Hua runs away as rapidly as she can.
In autumn, the Blossom Foundation becomes famous because of the incident last time. And also because Shi Jing advises others by using her own experience as an example, which makes many women improve their consciousness and begin to want to save themselves.
The foundation receives another request for help. This time, it is the stepmother that abuses the children left behind by the ex-wife. Chen Hong volunteers to go and is particularly active.
“She has always wanted a child.” Fei Ying tells Yan Hua the gossip again. “It is said that her husband and his mistress caused her to be unable to have a baby. So it is impossible for her to have a child of her own in this life.”
What a pity! She is such a good woman.
“No wonder she likes Gungun and Xiaojiu so much that she has bought them a lot of things no matter how expensive they are.” Yan Hua nods, “Then it is appropriate for her to go to help this time.”
Fei Ying’s eyes turn. “The National Day is coming soon. We shall go abroad.”
“Well, the parent-child education center will take a holiday on the National Day.” Yan Hua bows her head and refreshes her micro blog.
“I mean, won’t you be bored if I leave?”
Yan Hua gives her an odd look. “Why should I feel bored? We are always like this at ordinary times.”
“Oh! Please come with us together!” Fei Ying simply says, “Fei Yi’s friend has bought an island and invites us to play there. Anyway, it’s not a family gathering. I’ve heard that many people will go there. Take Gungun with you and we’ll go together!”
