Chapter 185 – Time With Me
Lin Xie’s voice resounded in this compound.
Hearing it in the ears of the bystanders was like a thunderous blast, but in Li’s ears, it was like a knife to the heart. She held her breath and forgot about Lin Xie for a few moments, and then let out a sharp voice like a madman: “We are doing this all for you! We only have one son, we’re doing this for you!”
“Did I ask you all to do this for me? Did I say that I wanted to take over the Wu family fortune? This is wishful thinking on your part, and if I had any illusions about the Wu family fortune, how could I possibly misunderstand Lan Feng because of the child? Wouldn’t I have known to get her close? You guys dare to pull such a trick on me, isn’t it because you know I won’t support you?!”
Zhao Su frowned at the roaring Lin Xie and said, “Are you saying these words to excuse yourself?”
Lin Xie raised his head and looked at her with reddened eyes, “I don’t have to excuse myself. I am guilty. Even if my father and mother did not have a hand in Duke Wu’s death, I am still a sinner to the Wu family. My family father and mother gave birth and raised me for a time, and for the crime of harming my wife, I am willing to serve the prison sentence for them in return for the kindness of their upbringing.”
“You are not qualified to make any demands!” Cheng Yunhui stepped out in large strides to angrily rebuke, “You yourself said that they dared to go behind your back because they saw that you wouldn’t be supportive, so if you weren’t foolish, if you weren’t self-righteous, their treacherous plan wouldn’t have succeeded! They just saw that you don’t trust Sister Feng that much so they dared to do it!”
Lin Xie pursed his lips tightly and did not utter a word under her angry rebuke.
Zhao Su looked at Cheng Yunhui who was so agitated that she couldn’t smooth out her emotions and turned her gaze back to Lin Xie: “Big Dangjia really wasn’t wrong in scolding you. Yes, you might be ignorant of this conspiracy, but are you really that innocent in this whole thing?
“While you don’t trust Sister Wu, you’re still hanging out with women outside, and you just can’t wait to rub salt in her wounds. Did you do that just to get back at him? You weren’t! You just put your disrespect for her on the surface, you can put your wife in a position where she doesn’t matter just based on the suspicion in your heart, you can trample on her dignity as you please, and bring the outside woman back to embarrass her, your so-called love and attention are just a joke, your coldness, from beginning to end, is just to paralyze yourself, and you think that you are taking revenge on her because you minded that she harmed your child, but in reality it’s not that at all, you are just You are declaring to her your rights as a man, you are telling her that you are the man you are the husband, you have a complaint in the relationship, so you can feel free to go out and have fun, and use any means you can to embarrass your wife to get back at her. Because she can’t do what you do, she can only suffer alone, so your revenge is very pleasurable. You were also able to practise cold violence in front of her without fear.
“So where does your evil lie? It is not in the absence of any involvement in the conspiracy to take over the family property, but in the silent atrocities that you perpetrated on your wife under the slogan of being a man of good character. It was your push and pull that drove Sister Wu into this situation.
“So how do you have the face to say you’re innocent? The person who really inflicted harm on Sister Wu was you, the one who made her go from chilled to dead was you, not your parents! They didn’t have such a great ability!
“Sister Wu went from losing her brother to losing her child, I can’t even begin to imagine how much pain he was in during that time, and yet you rubbed salt into her wounds when she was in the most pain! You also feel justified in raising concubine sons and daughters out to choke her with the women outside!
“Who are you to rebuke your parents here? You are simply the same as each other! If you had trusted her from the beginning, cherished her, and stood firmly by her side, even if your parents were to carry out the conspiracy regardless, would Sister Wu, who is as intelligent and opinionated as she is, have insisted on separating from you?
“So don’t put words in your mouth, don’t say anything about replacing your parents in jail, that’s what you should sit on! Maybe the king’s law can’t control your head, but morally, you should sit in jail for the rest of your life!”
Zhao Su’s voice resounded through the entire courtyard, and dozens of people inside and outside were frozen on the spot. They looked like they were shaken by these words and did not move for a long time.
Lin Xie’s face was pale and had already sweated like rain. He looked at Wu Lanfeng behind Zhao Su with two hollow eyes, who was holding her lower lip tightly and shedding tears, his lips opened and closed, but he never managed to spit out a word!
Wu Lanfeng’s silent sobbing turned into soft whimpering, and in the end it finally turned into a loud cry, she bent down and buried her face between her palms, her violently shaking shoulders, just as fragile as porcelain, making people worry that she would break into pieces at any moment.
Zhao Su put his hands on her shoulders, slightly using a little bit of strength, praying that this would send her a little bit of strength.
Lin Xie swallowed deep in his throat and hissed as he looked at Wu Lanfeng who was curled up and squatting on the ground, “Am I really not qualified anymore? Is …… it true?”
Wu Lanfeng had no words.
He knelt down, both eyes wide open, repeatedly panting like a drowning fish, “I never thought so much, I never thought that your uncompromising, unconvincing, is because of a guilty conscience …… Ah Feng …… ”
“Don’t call me!”
Wu Lanfeng let out a roar and stood up and backed away like a snake charmer. “You haven’t thought about anything, how could you? The only thing you’ve thought about is that I would do something as evil as you’ve imagined!”
Her body tensed into a bow, her tightly clenched teeth had bitten out blood marks on her lower lip, and the aggression and anger that she had been holding back for a long time seemed to have all exploded at this moment!
Zhao Su see always generous and dignified she was forced into this now, Lin Xie more and more resentment, at the same time the heart is very intolerant, she went over to Wu Lanfeng, one side of the loud with the governor said: “What are you still waiting for? The murderer has already confessed part of the crime, why don’t you take them back to the court for a strict trial? Do you still want to conspire with others to make your own dog’s head sound louder when it falls to the ground?!”
The governor returned to his senses and hurriedly greeted the constable, “Quickly escort the people out! Escort all three of them, father and son, away! There’s also Liu!
The constables once again swarmed and escorted out all of the paralyzed Lin Zhi Huan, Li who had long since given up his blank stare, and Liu who had already looked dumbfounded next to him.
Finally came in front of Lin Xie, dragged him up who was still kneeling in front of Wu Lanfeng and escorted him out as well.
Han Jun looked deeply before walking out the door together with the governor.
