Chapter 477: After modification: Chapter 476 - Why does the car accident 5 years ago keep being mentioned?
Lu Beichen’s steps halted, and he stood watching Shen Congling, instructing Li Yi beside him, "Take Shen Congjun inside. If he speaks another word, cut out his tongue!"
"Yes, Boss!"
As Li Yi stood up, Shen Congjun shouted, "Lu Beichen, you..."
Li Yi threw a punch, knocking him out. The police waiting nearby followed the instruction and dragged Li Yi away.
Shen Congling, with red eyes, pleaded, "Brother-in-law, handsome guy, please, for my personally bringing my brother here, at least spare his life, okay?"
She looked at him intently, as if speaking a thousand words with her eyes. Lu Beichen frowned slightly, turning his gaze to Ji Niandong, Shen Congling quickly grabbed Ji Niandong’s arm, "Sister Tongtong, please spare my brother’s life, okay?"
Ji Niandong finally came to her senses, sighed heavily, "I can spare his life, but I never want to see him again!"
"Then let him stay in prison to reflect!" Li Yi suggested.
Shen Congling nodded heavily, tears falling down, "He should indeed be in prison for hiring someone to harm others, let him stay there until the day he reflects."
She was both excited and nervous, Ji Niandong went over to hug her, "You don’t need to blame yourself for what your brother did. You brought him to the police for his own good. If he can truly understand your pains, then uncle and aunt can rest in peace."
Shen Congling sniffled, "Sister Tong, you really don’t blame me?"
"I don’t blame you!" She sighed, "It’s just that I really don’t want to see him, letting him repeatedly bring up my car accident from five years ago, isn’t it just a car accident? What’s the big deal, is it worth him threatening over and over, expecting me to thank him for taking care of me?"
Ji Niandong released her and wiped her tears, "Five years ago, you indeed took care of me, and since you treated me as your sister, naturally I had no reason to blame you."
Shen Congling shook her head, "I know that by the time I found out, you were already discharged!" There was no time to take care of her.
"If it weren’t for you coming to keep me company, I would have been bored to death at home! Alright, let your brother’s matter go, but Lingling, once he’s in prison, I won’t let him out easily unless he truly reforms, but..." She didn’t continue speaking.
Shen Congling nodded, "I know, I know!"
She cried so hard that she was gasping, Ji Niandong turned and said to Li Yi, "Please see Lingling home!"
Li Yi nodded, walked over, took Shen Congling’s hand and left, Shen Congling finally choked out, "Sister Tong, thank you."
As they walked away, Ji Niandong leaned into Lu Beichen’s embrace, silently for a long time.
Lu Beichen held her as they walked out, asking, "What’s wrong?"
She felt immense pressure in her heart, "Do you think I should let him go?"
"Logically speaking, he indeed doesn’t deserve to die. Although, if Lingling hadn’t sent him over, if he fell into my hands, I might really have killed him."
After all, the one he hurt was dear to his heart!
Ji Niandong slightly exhaled, "Husband, don’t you want to know about my car accident? Shen Congjun always brings it up, uses it to threaten, making me feel the accident wasn’t just a coincidence."
She frowned, puzzled and distressed, Lu Beichen also couldn’t help but furrow his brows, "He’s just greedy for life and afraid of death. Knowing about your accident makes my heart ache, why would I care? Besides, I don’t want to know about your accident, anything unpleasant to you, I don’t want to know."
He held her in his arms, lowered his head to kiss her forehead, "As long as you’re safe and happy now, that’s all that matters."
Hearing him say this, Ji Niandong nodded, "Let those unpleasant past events remain in the past, now happiness is all that matters!"
