The way Xie Yuansheng was asking questions, it was as if he wasn"t interested in what Xie Weihui was thinking or talking about. He had his own set of questions that he needed answers of. "Who was that man who offered you twenty percent shares?"
Xie Weihui gave him a side-glance and said, "You want to know that, don"t you?" She paused looked at the table in front of her before continuing, "I will tell you once we negotiate some terms and conditions."
"There are no terms and conditions. It is me who dictates them," said Xie Yuansheng. Then he looked at the guard who was standing on the door and shouted, "Bring her!"
The guard disappeared.
Xie Weihui became nervous realizing what he was saying. "Don"t you touch my daughter," She shouted on top of her lungs. "She is innocent. She is pregnant and a victim of your abuse. At least now don"t torture her."
Xie Yuansheng wasn"t interested in her laments. He kept looking at his gun and playing with it. A few minutes later Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ came. When she looked at her mother, she spat on the floor in front of her. "You insolent woman because of you things have become so complicated! Instead of getting me out of jail, you have come inside. How pathetic you are."
Xie Weihui looked at her daughter with pleading eyes, "s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, this is because of this man Xie Yuansheng and his wife Feng Xinying. The two of them have plotted against us."
Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+"s gaze turned to the man in front of her.
Xie Yuansheng looked at the mother and daughter. They both looked so haggard and wasted. While Xie Weihui looked as though she had aged years, Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ looked thin, pale and older than her teenage.
"Tsk, tsk. You both still refuse to accept your crimes," he said. Then he gazed Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ from top to bottom. "I heard that you have been supplied with drugs inside the jail from none other than Hung Jia."
Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ licked her lips. "Yes, he is the only one who loves me."
"s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, are you mad. You can"t have drugs. You are pregnant," cried Xie Weihui.
"Shut up, you b.i.t.c.h!" Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ yelled at her.
"Do you want more?" said Xie Yuansheng as he reached his hands in his pockets and took a stash of weeds.
Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+"s eyes had a glint of happiness. She nodded vigorously. That amount would last for at least two weeks.
"Ask the woman in front of us as to who instigated her to kill Feng Xinying"s mother and I will give it to you," he said with a smile.
The guard opened her handcuffs. In the next fifteen minutes, Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ asked her question and when she did not receive the answers, she bashed Xie Weihui. She bashed her to the extent that her head was smashed multiple times against the table for not answering the question. Xie Weihui admired the way Xie Yuansheng dangled a carrot in front of her daughter. At the same time, she could never give the pleasure of revealing the name to Xie Yuansheng. As for her own daughter, Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was a gone case now.
When she didn"t answer even after fifteen minutes of asking her, Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ looked at the gun in front of her.
The prisoners heard a loud gunshot and then everything became quiet. Xie Yuansheng threw the gun and the stash of weeds towards Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, who caught it. The guard came from outside and held her hands. Other guards followed him inside. They saw a murdered Xie Weihui and Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ with the gun and weeds.
"I didn"t do it!" she shouted. "This man killed her," she said pointing at Xie Yuansheng. The guards had seized the weapon from her and sealed it in a packet.Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ realized the trap she was set in.
Xie Weihui was lying in a pool of blood, her eyes frozen in distance She had been shot point blank on her chest. Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ kept shouting that she didn"t do it. She lunged at Xie Yuansheng for framing her but the guards held her. Suddenly there was blood in her pajamas. Her child had been aborted.
Justice had been served.
Xie Yuansheng walked out of the prison wiping his hands off with a white cloth. Now there was no way, Feng Xinying would be able to discover the truth. Everything was taken care of within the walls of the jail. Soon Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ would be sentenced to death.
Xie Yuansheng reached home around 2PM. When he reached he saw that Feng Xinying was in her room along with the fas.h.i.+on designer. He went to his bedroom and closed the door behind him. He was tired. Having killed a woman who had looked after him for a long time was killing his conscience. He wanted to cry but his tears weren"t coming out. He felt as though his chest is tightening and he was winded. He started gasping for air.
Suddenly the door opened and Feng Xinying came in. She carried the wedding gown in her hands. When she saw his condition, she ran to him, "Yuansheng," she shouted and caught him in his arms. It looked as if he would collapse.
Xie Yuansheng caught his wife and then buried his head in her stomach. He smelled her and tried to calm but he started wheezing. "Calm down Yuansheng, please calm down darling. What happened?"
Xie Yuansheng started howling. He couldn"t tell her anything but he didn"t want to keep anything in his heart. It was weighing him down. "Feng Xinying, save me!" he whispered.
Feng Xinying kept combing her hands through his hair. She managed to make him lie down on the bed and then sat near him. She wiped his tears. It was the first time, she saw him in that condition. Her heart cried internally. She wanted to know what was eating him, but stayed quiet. It was important that he became calm. She ma.s.saged his forehead and he held her across the waist. He kept his head in her lap and refused to let go of her.
Lu Boyun served lunch in their room quietly. He didn"t know what was wrong with the young master but he was sad and hoped that the young master became fine soon.
An hour later Xie Yuansheng slept with his arms around Feng Xinying and his head on her lap. He didn"t have his lunch either.
Feng Xinying removed his head from her lap slowly, covered him with the blanket and left. Keira must have called her ten times for the gown. Since her work was complete, she sent the wedding gown with the driver. She stayed out of the bedroom so that Xie Yuansheng doesn"t get disturbed.
It was 4PM and they had to go to Shengjun"s Manor now. She opened the door of the bedroom quietly and then went inside. He was still sleeping. Softly, she woke him up. "We have to go now," she said as she stroked his head.
Xie Yuansheng looked at her with red eyes. Her face was so soft and lovely, just like an angel. He smiled and got up. "Are you feeling okay now?" she asked.
He nodded.
Soon the couple got dressed and left for the wedding. As soon as Feng Xinying stepped out of the car, she received Su Haobing"s call, "Young Miss, we have just received the news that Xie Weihui has been killed by her daughter."
