Chapter 140: It’s Enough That You Admit It
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hearing the policewoman’s words, the madness on Jing Yuan’s face was replaced by panic.
She couldn’t move her hands and could only look at Jing Yao pitifully. “Yaoyao, Yaoyao, help me. No matter what, I’m still your sister. My parents will be sad if anything happens to me. Can you help me? I don’t want to go to jail.”
Jing Yuan’s words made everyone present speechless. Yan Huan even sneered.
“Jing Yuan, there’s one thing about you that’s very admirable. You’re very shameless. It was the same back then. You swaggered around in the name of Wen Chen’s girlfriend, but does Wen Chen really care about you? You should have seen the Wen Corporation’s statement before you came in. He doesn’t like you, let alone care about you.” Yan Huan’s words were merciless. She knew what Jing Yuan cared about the most and said it with what she had.
Jing Yuan suddenly turned to Yan Huan with resentment on her face. “Yan Huan, this is all because of you. If you hadn’t posted those things online, no one would have known about these things.”
Gu Yu had no expression on his face. Hearing Jing Yuan’s words, he said calmly, “The truth will be revealed one day. Miss Jing, do you think you can hide it for the rest of your life?”
Jing Yuan turned to Gu Yu and opened her mouth, but she could not say anything.
Seeing that Jing Yuan was still unrepentant, the policewoman sighed in disappointment. She said to the police officer who was escorting Jing Yuan over, “Bring her over.”
Jing Yuan was dragged forward, but she still refused to give up. “Yaoyao, you have to save me.”
Jing Yao ignored her and pretended not to hear her.
Jing Yuan said again, “President Liang, please save me. Otherwise, my parents won’t acknowledge you and Jing Yao.”
Liang Xun stopped in his tracks. Jing Yao was forced to stop because he was hugging her.
She thought that Liang Xun cared about Jing Yuan’s words and hurriedly said, “Liang Xun, don’t listen to her nonsense. I don’t care if they acknowledge me, so you shouldn’t either.”
Liang Xun nodded. He naturally wouldn’t mind. Seeing Jing Yao’s serious explanation, he smiled. “It doesn’t matter if they admit it or not. I just need you to admit it.”
“…” Jing Yao.
Liang Xun ignored Jing Yuan and pulled Jing Yao forward. Yan Huan had been secretly observing the two of them ever since she saw them. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Liang Xun’s att.i.tude towards Jing Yao.
Yan Huan had always had psychological barriers because of the school violence she encountered back then. It was only after she went to university that she went to see a psychiatrist under the persuasion of the counselor.
At that time, she was actually very tunnel-visioned and didn’t have her own life. She wanted Jing Yuan and the others to pay the price. She didn’t trust anyone and didn’t want to be close to anyone. She had psychological barriers, so it was more likely that Jing Yao had as well since she had lived in such an environment since she was young.
After all, she had observed Jing Yao for so many years and could see some clues. She was quite relieved to see Jing Yao and Liang Xun like this.
No matter what, she hoped that Jing Yao could get rid of the trauma of the past and start a new life.
Liang Xun might be an opportunity for change.
The four of them left the police station together and found a coffee shop. Liang Xun asked for a cup of hot milk for Jing Yao, and the four of them sat together and chatted.
After a few words, Jing Yao received a call. After picking it up for a while, she looked awful.
Liang Xun knew who the person opposite him was from Jing Yao’s form of address. His face darkened and he pursed his lips slightly, a sign of anger.
Gu Yu knew his various expressions the best. Seeing this, he said to Yan Huan, who was still unaware, “Let’s go see what delicious desserts there are.” Although Yan Huan did not understand, she still stood up and followed him.
After the two of them left, Liang Xun said to Jing Yao, “I’ll talk to her.”
The person opposite her was Cheng Wan. Her voice was a little hoa.r.s.e and she didn’t sound energetic. She told Jing Yao that Zhang Li wanted to meet her.
Jing Yao did not want to see Zhang Li. She no longer had any expectations for Zhang Li. Zhang Li would only remind her of her unhappy life in the past.
Jing Yao did not reject Liang Xun and handed him her cell phone.
After Liang Xun took the cell phone, he said calmly to the other party, “I’m Liang Xun.”
Cheng Wan was silent for a moment before saying, “President Liang, I’m just pa.s.sing on a message. It’s up to you to decide if you want to see her or not..”
